Supreme Battle King

Chiang Zhan had just entered the forest when he saw a strange-looking spirit herb growing on the damp ground. It was only a foot tall, and a golden flower was blooming on top of it. Below it was a silver leaf the size of a palm, and it was hexagonal. It was the legendary Golden Flower Silver Leaf Grass.    

This kind of spiritual grass belonged to the category of high-grade spiritual grass. It was an indispensable material to refine a high-grade Spirit Pill, the Stellar Condensation Pill. Its value was at least several tens of thousands of spirit stones.    

Without the slightest hesitation, Chiang Zhan bent down and stretched out his hand. He pulled out the Golden Flower Silver Leaf Grass and put it into the Storage Ring.    

Chi!    

Almost at the same time, in the overturned mud pit, a blood-red ray of light shot out like a sharp arrow. The flying needle pierced through the air and shot out.    

Chiang Zhan frowned. His two eyes, which were like two blazing suns, saw that the blood-red ray of light was so thin that it was as thin as a cow's hair. It was like a needle or an arrow, and it was more than two feet long. It was emitting a strong poison, and it was as thick as a thigh. The two meter long blood-red scorpion hid in the dirt and unleashed a fatal attack.    

"Rank Three Peak demonic beast, Scarlet Blood Scorpion King."    

A cry of alarm sounded out from Chiang Zhan's mouth. He stretched out his hand and grabbed at the air. The Taiji Blade shone with a bright divine light as it appeared out of thin air.    

Crack!    

The blade was like a bolt of lightning. It cut through the void and struck the Crimson Blood Scorpion King's stinger. As if a sword and sword had collided, metal clanked and a series of blazing sparks flashed in the air. It brought a trace of light to the endless dark world.    

Chiang Zhan's body swayed, and he took a few steps back. He felt his blood and Qi churning, and it rushed straight to his throat. He couldn't help but reveal a serious look in his eyes.    

It was a Rank Three Peak demonic beast, the Crimson Blood Scorpion King. Although it wasn't a very large beast, its ferocious name was enough to make any Peak of Tenth Layer of Astral Condensation Stage warrior tremble in fear.    

This kind of demon beast was like an arrow, and it contained deadly poison. It would definitely die wherever it went. Its two pincers were sharper than the edge of a blade, and the hard skin on its back was like armor. It was as tough as steel, and its overall strength was far greater than some lions and tigers. The Hunting Leopard Python was even more terrifying, and it was known as the king of scorpions. It was worthy of its name.    

This was also the reason why Chiang Zhan didn't dare to take the Crimson Blood Scorpion King's stinger with his bare hands.    

"Hissss..."    

After the Crimson Blood Scorpion King's attack failed, it slowly crawled out of the soil. The two bloody scorpion claws opened and closed, as if they were going to mince Chiang Zhan into pieces. Its stinger rose high, and the fine stinger was like a blood arrow aimed at Chiang Zhan. Obviously, it was ready to fight.    

If it was an ordinary peak Ninth Layer of Aperture Breaking Stage warrior, facing the Scarlet Blood Scorpion King would only lead to death. Even an ordinary Peak of Tenth Layer of Astral Condensation Stage warrior would have to flee, or else they would either die or be injured.    

However, not only did Chiang Zhan not have the intention to retreat, his eyes were sharp and filled with killing intent.    

Although the Scarlet Blood Scorpion King was a frightening Rank Three Peak demonic beast, its body was full of treasures. Especially its two pincers, the hard skin on its back, and its stinger. Even the deadly poison it contained was priceless. If it was sold on the market... They could be sold for at least a few hundred thousand spirit stones.    

This was a good opportunity to make a fortune. Chiang Zhan naturally wouldn't miss it. He held the saber with both hands and slashed in the air. A bright and blazing saber light appeared out of nowhere like a rainbow, tearing the void apart.    

Crack!    

The Crimson Blood Scorpion King waved its two blade scorpion claws and shattered the blade light on the spot. However, there were clear cracks on the scorpion claws.    

Chiang Zhan was secretly shocked. The Crimson Blood Scorpion King lived up to its reputation. It was actually able to take his blade head on. Its strength was even greater than Elder Duobao's, but he didn't fear it at all. Its killing intent soared to the sky, and waves of invincible blade intent pierced through the vast void like rotten weeds.    

"Blood Stained Heaven!"    

Swoosh!    

The blade light was like a rainbow, piercing through the void.    

This blade was bright and beautiful, as if it was a divine punishment. The thick blade light was completely condensed from Astral Qi Crystal, and it carried an incomparable amount of energy as it ruthlessly hacked towards the Crimson Blood Scorpion King.    

"Hiss hiss..."    

The Crimson Blood Scorpion King let out a strange cry, as if it had sensed a dangerous aura. The two pincers clashed in the air, and at the same time, they swung their thick and long tails towards the sky. The stinger that was as thin as an arrow was like a bolt of lightning shuttling back and forth. It flashed with lightning, and its speed was so fast. It was impossible to guard against.    

Waves of intense poison spread out like a mist of blood, corroding the void and forming countless wormholes. It was like a beehive, shocking to the extreme.    

Chiang Zhan didn't dare to be careless, and with a flash, he avoided the blood-colored poison gas and the stinger, and at the same time, he shut his breath.    

Kacha!    

The sound of the sword and blade clashing rang out again. Although the Scarlet Blood Scorpion King shattered the blade light for the second time, its body was sent flying by the powerful energy impact. A rain of blood burst out in the air.    

It flew dozens of meters and fell to the ground. The Crimson Blood Scorpion King did not move at all, as if it was already dead.    

Chiang Zhan strode over with large strides, and with a wave of the Taiji Blade in his hand, he turned the Scarlet Blood Scorpion King around. When he found out that this Rank Three Peak demonic beast was indeed dead, he put away the corpse and continued to explore the Heavenly Net Forbidden Land.    

Not long after he left, danger once again descended.    

From a large tree that was shaped like a giant umbrella, dozens of strange birds that looked like rats, but had wings on their back, flew out and launched fierce attacks from all directions.    

"Super rank three demon beast, Flying Rat."    

Chiang Zhan recognized the origin of the strange birds. The Taiji Blade in his hand slashed across the sky. The peerless saber light contained a sharp saber intent, like a waterfall. Terrifying energy rippled in the air. Those flying rats were weaker than the Crimson Blood Scorpion King to begin with. They crashed into the saber curtain and turned into pieces of flesh and blood.    

"Sure enough, the Heavenly Net Forbidden Land is filled with danger. There are so many Third Grade demonic beasts living in it, and I'm afraid many Peak of Tenth Layer of Astral Condensation Stage warriors of the Vast Ocean Empire will die as well."    

Chiang Zhan's mind was filled with thousands of thoughts as he continued to venture deeper into the forest. Along the way, he encountered more than a dozen attacks from demonic beasts. Most of them were super rank 3 demonic beasts, including Earth Shattering Bear. Fire Scaled Leopard, Twin-Headed Python... The most terrifying one was a Rank Three Peak demon beast, the Moon Gazing Rhinoceros. Its body was as big as a mountain. It was very strong, and when it ran, it was like a mountain crashing into it. It fought with him for two hours before its head was chopped off. He died a violent death.
