Chapter 1399: Chapter 1399: Looks Like I’ll Have to Eat Bear Paw Tonight! (4th Update)
The one who took action was precisely Ye Haochuan. His Primordial Thunder Purple Bee Emperor Jelly was not yet in his possession, how could he tolerate others ruining it?
"Hehe, just a mere Core Formation Cultivator!"
Xiong Lie was initially startled, then he pursed his lips disdainfully and glanced at Ye Haochuan, ignoring him afterwards.
The other Core Formation Stage Purple Lightning Bees also looked somber. Ye Haochuan had fought against them earlier, and at that time, he was only focused on escaping, barely fighting back.
The only direct confrontation was evenly matched; how could they have a favorable opinion of Ye Haochuan?
The next moment.
Ye Haochuan’s Ascension Formation collided with the huge bear paw, and the yellow light on Xiong Lie’s body exploded, turning into a sky full of smoke and dust.
Boom~
Following that was a massive sound, so loud that it was like two high-speed trucks colliding, erupting with a thunderous noise.
"Haha! What a fool, a mere Core Formation Stage, actually daring to clash with Xiong Lie."
Xiong Zhuang laughed heartily, toying with the Purple Lightning Bee Queen, who had lost her formation. She was merely at the Core Formation Peak and stood no chance against Nascent Soul Early Stage Xiong Zhuang.
If she had time to unite all the Purple Lightning Bees, she could momentarily achieve Nascent Soul Mid-Stage cultivation, but in that moment of haste, how could there be an opportunity?
And now, the tens of thousands of Purple Lightning Bees she brought were mostly dead. Even if she wanted to unite, she wouldn’t find any subordinates.
So now she could only bitterly support herself in Xiong Zhuang’s grasp, hoping Little Zi could quickly come back and bring the forces from the hive. Then she would have a fighting chance.
Meanwhile, the Core Formation Stage Purple Lightning Bees who had their moves destroyed by Xiong Lie were recovering their energy and discussing amongst themselves.
"This human clan is so powerful! Actually able to clash with Xiong Lie!" a Core Formation Stage Purple Lightning Bee exclaimed.
"Sigh! No matter how powerful, it’s useless. Xiong Lie is an existence at the Nascent Soul Early Stage. Even when we teamed up, we were beaten away by him. Can this mere Core Formation Stage human clan cultivator, however powerful, possibly defeat Xiong Lie?"
Another Core Formation Stage Purple Lightning Bee replied with a bitter expression.
"Ah!"
Just as his words fell, a tragic scream sounded within the smoke and dust.
"See, that human clan is probably already dead."
Upon hearing the scream, that Purple Lightning Bee shook his head and sighed: "But thanks to him for blocking momentarily. Otherwise, Little Zi wouldn’t have been able to leave. When Little Zi brings the forces from the nest, we will join forces to kill this Xiong Lie, as a form of revenge for him!"
"Indeed! Sigh!"
"Poor human clan cultivator, sigh..."
"..."
At this moment, all the Core Formation Stage Purple Lightning Bees sighed and continued to mourn Ye Haochuan.
Suddenly.
"I say, you guys have far too little confidence in me!"
Ye Haochuan walked step by step out of the area covered in dust, with his arms folded across his chest, looking leisurely, hardly like someone heavily injured and near death.
"You... you’re fine?"
Ye Haochuan’s leisurely demeanor made all the Core Formation Stage Purple Lightning Bees widen their mouths in shock, staring at him as though seeing something unscientific.
"What? How could you be fine? Was that scream from my brother Lie? I don’t believe it! I don’t believe it!"
Xiong Zhuang howled, abandoning the Purple Lightning Bee Queen, and rushed into the smoke to find his companion.
Such a result seemed unscientific to him—a Core Formation Stage wounding a Nascent Soul Stage, how could the one injured be the Nascent Soul?
But what he didn’t know was that Ye Haochuan had indeed killed Nascent Soul Early Stage cultivators alone before, so this was nothing to him.
This time, injuring Xiong Lie was also due to Ye Haochuan’s luck; Xiong Lie was indeed too overconfident, completely dismissing Ye Haochuan.
Moreover, Ye Haochuan used the amplitude ability of the Communicating with God Treasure Order, allowing him to injure Xiong Lie so effortlessly.
If it weren’t for demon beasts generally being stronger than human cultivators of the same level, Ye Haochuan might have already slain him.
"Little brother, I knew you were powerful, yet I still underestimated you."
The Purple Lightning Bee Queen sighed with relief watching Xiong Zhuang rush into the dust. She charmingly approached Ye Haochuan, lightly exhaled, releasing a fragrant aroma.
"What is this scent? Why is it so pleasant?"
Ye Haochuan noticed this fragrance and felt his cultivation suddenly solidify somewhat.
"This is the aroma of Purple Lightning Bee Queen Jelly, which helps people solidify their cultivation. Awesome, right? Let me tell you, Primordial Thunder Purple Bee Emperor Jelly is even better!"
After saying this, the Purple Lightning Bee Queen glanced worriedly at the dust, asking, "Little brother, what happened to Xiong Lie?"
Purple Lightning Bee Queen Jelly? Solidify cultivation? That’s right, these two Sky Heaven Three Absolute Bears came here seeking this substance to solidify their cultivation. They didn’t expect the Queen to be outside.
Ye Haochuan speculated silently, glanced at the Purple Lightning Bee Queen, and said, "Oh him, nothing serious, just spilled a little blood."
"Bastard! I’m going to kill you!"
Just then, a furious roar echoed from the dust, and then a massive silhouette charged out.
"Daring to come, since that’s the case, tonight I will have no choice but to feast on bear paws!"
Though Ye Haochuan spoke lightly, his expression was deadly serious. After all, it was a Nascent Soul Early Stage demon beast, even if it had only recently broken through, he couldn’t just kill it as he wished.
Luckily, he succeeded in ambushing it earlier, injuring it, allowing him to have a chance for a definite kill.
"Xuanwu Force Vein, open!"
"Sword Destroying Star!"
Ye Haochuan murmured twice, and the Divine Concealment Sword in his hand transformed into a massive sword blade enough to tear through the Nine Heavens Mysterious Void.
Then, Ye Haochuan "gently" swung it towards the silhouette, watching the giant blade slash down swiftly like the wrathful sword of a great deity.
"Roar!"
Xiong Lie let out a furious roar, his yellow light burst forth, eventually crystallizing into a dirt-yellow armor on his body.
"Sky Heaven Three Absolute, First Absolute, the Might of Mountains and Rivers!"
Xiong Lie howled, and suddenly, in the sky above his thirty-meter figure, a massive mountain materialized, rapidly and fully forming, blocking in front of him.
This move, the Might of Mountains and Rivers, was an attack technique, wielding the weight of mountains and rivers, delivering a overwhelmingly powerful strike. But Xiong Lie using it to block the sword blade was a misuse.
Crash~
The enormous sword blade and the towering mountain collided; the blade was initially halted by the peak, then rapidly broke through, heading downward.
"What? Couldn’t withstand it?"
Xiong Lie was shocked, his expression changed dramatically, and he shouted again: "Sky Heaven Three Absolute, Second Absolute, Sky-Outer Flying Star!"
Whoosh~
With the fall of his words, a violent wind arose on flat ground, a star seemed to fleetingly appear within the wind.
Boom~
This star, carrying matchless power, extinguished itself together with Ye Haochuan’s giant sword blade in midair.
Spurt~
Xiong Lie staggered and spat out a mouthful of fresh blood, looking at Ye Haochuan with shock.
