Three days later, early in the morning, Ning and his parents arrived at Dragon Castle.
The Dragon Castle was three hundred feet wide and three hundred feet long, divided into two parts, the cage and the beast den. The cage was a place where life and death battles were carried out, and the beast cave was a place where a large number of demon beasts were usually imprisoned. Because there were many demon beasts imprisoned in the Dragon Castle, it was very dangerous, so the original site was chosen to be in a remote area of the inner city.
……
Dragon Castle, inside the cage.
After Ning entered the cage, he surveyed his surroundings. This was an empty space that was two to three hundred meters in diameter. The walls around him were completely made of black metal, and the ceiling was connected by countless black chains, forming a dense net of chains that made it impossible for anyone to escape.
"This place is completely sealed." Yichuan, who was faintly emanating an icy aura, said," The wall next to us is made of Blackwater Iron. Although Blackwater Iron isn't very precious, even an ordinary expert who has just reached the Xiantian level would find it difficult to break through such a thick wall of Blackwater Iron. As for the thick iron chains above, they were also made of black water iron. Given your power…if you were to use the [Crimsonbright Diagram of the Nine Heavens], you should be able to break the chains with all your might. However, with so many chains forming a net…you would probably need ten breaths of time to break enough chains to allow yourself to escape.”
Ning nodded.
"Look." Yichuan pointed at the area above the net of chains. There was actually a grandstand there.
"Your mother, Uncle White, and I will be watching you from above.”Yichuan said coldly.
"Be careful." Snow encouraged her son.
"Roar!" The snowy white dog looked at Ning as well, its eyes filled with encouragement and anticipation. This snowy white dog was his father, Ji Yichuan's sworn brother, who was also his Uncle White. His father, Ji Yichuan, had tamed two Diremonsters. One was that enormous black serpent, Uncle Black! The other one was the big snow-white dog, Uncle White.
Wild beasts, once they gained intelligence, would absorb the Heaven Earth Yuan Qi to become demonic beasts!
Demonic beasts underwent a difficult metamorphosis to become Xiantian lifeforms. Only then would they become Diremonsters! Ordinary Diremonsters could transform into human form, such as Uncle Black. However, there were still some special existences among the demonic beasts-divine beasts.
Divine Beasts were demonic beasts that had the bloodline of ancient gods and devils. They were born with intelligence and were extremely talented. Their strength was also much stronger than ordinary demonic beasts. Similarly, it was much more difficult for them to transform into human form. The difficulty of different Divine Beasts transforming into human form was also different.
Some needed to reach the Zifu level in order to take human form, some needed to reach the Wanxiang level, and some needed to reach even higher levels…
Uncle White was a divine beast, a divine beast known as the 'Whitewater Hound'. Only after reaching the Zifu level could he take human form, and only then could he speak the human language.
However, Ning and the Whitewater Hound had a very deep relationship. Ever since his archery master, Blindfish, had taught him archery, Ning would go with the Whitewater Hound to the forest outside of West Prefecture City every morning to practice archery. This was because Yichuan didn't feel at ease leaving the city alone, so he had the Xiantian lifeform, the Whitewater Hound, protect him.
A Xiantian lifeform divine beast was extremely terrifying! The Whitewater Hound was also one of the reasons why Yichuan possessed a transcendent status within the Ji clan of the West Prefecture.
"Just watch." Ning grinned.
"Roar!" The Whitewater Hound let out a low growl as well, then followed Yichuan and his wife through the narrow passageway. Soon, they arrived at the viewing platform.
Ning let out a soft breath, then calmed himself down and looked around him.
"Why does it feel like the Roman Colosseum?”Ning murmured to himself,"There's a battleground and a viewing platform.”He also knew that those who could enter the cage to fight demonic beasts were all specially nurtured by the clan. Therefore, some elders and relatives in the clan would also watch from the stands.
"Hua ~~""Hua ~~"
Whoosh. The sound of chains clashing against each other rang out from a tunnel in the distant walls. Ning couldn't help but turn to look. From within that pitch-black tunnel…a deep, angry roar could be faintly heard. The roar caused the entire cage to tremble, and the enormous net of chains above it began to tremble.
A silver-furred giant head gradually emerged from the wall in the distance.
"What is that?" Ning carefully observed.
"Ji Ning." "You train in the number one Fiendgod Body Refining technique, so I specially chose an extremely powerful monstrous beast for you. It's a Howling Moonwolf with Fiendgod blood.”
Ning stared with wide eyes at his father, a look of astonishment on his face.
Possessing the bloodline of a God?
Wouldn't that make him a divine beast? That's right, divine beasts are also a type of demonic beast. There were quite a few Houtian stage Godbeasts in the Endless Lands, such as the Armored Earth Dragon, the Mountain Shaking Rhinoceros, the Howling Moon Wolf, the Red-Clawed Golden Crow, the Thundersea Owl, the Whitewater Hound, and so on. Generally speaking, only one Houtian stage Godbeast out of hundreds or thousands of them would break through to the Xiantian lifeform stage.
"Hua ~~" The sound of the iron chains continued to ring out.
Ning didn't want to be distracted any longer. He immediately stared at the enormous tunnel in the distant wall. He knew that the chains were probably being unchained. Once the chains were completely undone, the Howling Moonwolf would be released.
"Bang!" The sound of iron chains crashing onto the ground.
"Roar!" Instantly, a carefree wolf howl rang out. Up above, Yichuan, his wife, and the Whitewater Hound were all carefully staring downwards.
Ning held his breath as well.
A massive creature slowly walked out from the distant tunnel. It had beautiful silver fur all over its body and was about twenty feet tall. It walked out gracefully. It looked down at the little guy in the distance-a human youth. As a special existence among demon beasts, a divine beast, its intelligence was not inferior to that of humans.
It understood that there were only two endings after entering this cage. One was that it would kill the human and continue to live. The other was that it was killed by this human youth.
"I chose a divine beast the first time.”Ning stretched out his right hand, causing a sword to appear out of thin air. The blade of the sword shone with a cold light.”
The Howling Moonwolf's huge body weighed nearly 10,000 pounds, but its four hooves were very light as it moved forward, its long and narrow eyes scrutinizing the human youth.
Ning walked forward, sword in hand.
The distance between the two quickly closed.
"Bang!" The Howling Moonwolf's graceful demeanor quickly turned savage. With a swoosh, it transformed into a blur as it charged towards Ning. As it charged, its soft claws suddenly swished out like blades, and sharp claws began to emerge from its claws.
Whoosh!
At this critical moment, Ning moved his feet, moving like a gust of wind as he dodged the Howling Moonwolf's pounce. At the same time, the sharp sword in his hand stabbed out diagonally! This stab was extremely decisive and as fast as lightning. With the help of the Howling Moon Wolf's own momentum, he could pull the Howling Moon Wolf's body apart!
"Hmm?" Ning's face changed as he stabbed forward. The tip of the sword encountered an enormous resistance. The Howling Moonwolf's fur was blocking the tip of the sword, preventing it from penetrating.
At the same time, the Howling Moonwolf's tail swiped out, and Ning, who couldn't dodge in time, swung his sword horizontally to block.
Bang!
The Howling Moonwolf's tail struck the sword like a heavy steel whip. The powerful impact sent Ning flying backwards, his entire body slamming into the distant Blackwater Iron wall with a boom. Boom! The thick, heavy wall trembled violently.
"Roar!" The Howling Moonwolf immediately pounced forward, its sharp claws clawing towards Ning.
Ning hurriedly dodged, then leapt forward.
Chi! Chi! Chi! A few deep claw marks appeared on the wall that was filled with black water iron. The Howling Moon Wolf landed on the ground and turned to look at the human youth in the distance. Its tail sweep was a killing move. That tail hit the human youth against the wall, and the human youth actually fled far away in an instant. It understood that this human youth was really strong and had the strength to fight it.
"An ordinary Ninefangs Warrior would probably die from the internal organs shattering from that tail sweep.”Ning frowned as he stared at the distant Howling Moonwolf.”
Over the years, he had also refined his Qi and reached the peak of the Postliminary Realm.
However, a sword strike from a peak Houtian qi refiner could not even pierce through the skin. How could he fight?
"Humph!"
Ning let out a low snort, then blew out two streams of air that were visible to the naked eye from his nostrils, causing the air to tremble. At this moment, the terrifying power hidden in the depths of this seemingly thin body completely erupted. The power of Yin and the power of Yang hidden in his body also began to erupt, and his skin was faintly red.
Ning waved the sword in his hand slightly, causing it to tear through the air and create a shockwave that caused a deep trench to appear in the thick earth.
The Howling Moonwolf in the distance immediately let out a low growl and stared fixedly at the youth.
……
"This child has finally used the [Crimsonbright Diagram of the Nine Heavens].”Snow laughed." I didn't use it before.”
Yichuan nodded."Howling Moonwolf. It possesses the bloodline of a Fiendgod, and its fur is incomparably tough. Ordinary peak Houtian warriors are unable to pierce through its fur. I specifically chose the Howling Moonwolf…in order to force Ji Ning to unleash all of his power. I wanted to see how far he could go in a truly intense life-and-death battle.”
"What do you think of Ning 'er's performance now?”Snow asked.
"It's just so-so." Yichuan stared downwards.”
……
Ning held his sword in his hand as he circled around the Howling Moonwolf, walking in circles.
The Howling Moonwolf had been staring at Ning the entire time, but it didn't rashly attack. Because once he attacked…flaws would appear, and life and death were often decided in an instant.
"Humph." Without any warning, Ning transformed into a blurry blur, closing in on the Howling Moonwolf.
The Howling Moonwolf immediately let out a roar as it charged forward, opening its mouth and revealing its fangs as its sharp claws covered Ning.
Whoosh!
Sword light flashed!
As the sword shadow tore through the air, it changed its form nine times in a row, its speed increasing to an extremely terrifying level. It was as if even the void was about to be split apart. Chi chi ~~~ The sword shadow struck the Howling Moon Wolf's chest, forcefully leaving a huge wound, and blood spurted out.
Clang. As Ning slashed out with his sword, he immediately turned his sword, blocking the Howling Moonwolf's claw while using the force of the impact to fly backwards.
The Howling Moonwolf bared its teeth and stared angrily at Ning. The muscles in the enormous wound on its chest contracted, and the rate of bleeding slowed down. However, the blood continued to flow out slowly. Clearly, the wound had been just too large.
The Howling Moonwolf really felt death approaching!
"The Lightning Fire Flint of the [Thunderflame Sword] is indeed extraordinary.”Ning sighed softly.
