Chapter 536: Chapter 271 Five Divine Beasts! (Two-in-one, 10/10)_2
Before they knew it, the two had already reached the depths of the den.
What appeared before their eyes was a mysterious altar. The altar was covered in ancient runes, radiating powerful Divine Power. In its center, the Giant Beast King stood, its body immense. Its form was like a living mountain, standing proudly in the center of the altar.
The Giant Beast King’s skin was entirely covered with scales as hard as steel. Undulating like mountain ranges, each scale shimmered with a mysterious light, like stars in the sky—beautiful yet unreachable. These scales were engraved with enigmatic patterns, as if narrating myths from ancient times, filled with endless wisdom and mysterious power. They varied in color; some glinted with silver light, while others presented a deep blue-black hue. Each scale was engraved with intricate, rune-like patterns that twisted and interlocked, seemingly containing ancient, mysterious power.
The Giant Beast King’s head was noble and majestic. Its piercing eyes, like the depths of space, were full of wisdom that seemed to see through all illusions. The single horn on its head, like an erect treasure pagoda, had purple-gold light flowing through it, seemingly connected to the mysterious power between heaven and earth. Its mouth was slightly agape, revealing teeth both tenacious and sharp, like exquisitely carved jade, invoking endless awe. Its four limbs were strong and powerful, each hoof carved with complex patterns, as if they were traces left by the laws of nature. When its four hooves touched the ground, the very heavens and earth trembled, and all creatures surrendered to it.
The Giant Beast King’s tail was like that of a mighty dragon, densely covered in scales that emanated a metallic luster, appearing both tenacious and powerful. Its tassel-like tip shone with a sharp brilliance. Like a banner flown on the battlefield, the tail demonstrated an imposing and unmatched air of dominance.
Besides its domineering physique, the Giant Beast King was also surrounded by a Sacred aura—a profound reverence for Life and a pure respect for power. This Sacred aura, like an invisible storm, swept through the entire den, imbuing every corner with a mysterious and solemn atmosphere.
The den of the Giant Beast King was not inhabited solely by the Giant Beast King but also by several Sacred Beasts. These Sacred Beasts were guardians of ancient spirits, possessing archaic wisdom and great power. They varied in size: some soared across the sky like dragons, while others resembled phoenixes bursting into Flame. They fought alongside the Giant Beast King, protecting the Divine Spirit Birthplace. Their presence further intensified the den’s mysterious and solemn atmosphere.
So many creatures in the final stage?
Both Chen Mo and Yusheng Liuyin were quite surprised. Unexpectedly, there were five Legendary creatures in this final area.
These five creatures seemed rather familiar to Chen Mo.
They resemble the Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermilion Bird, Black Tortoise, and Kylin—the five great divine beasts from the legends of China,
he mused.
The Azure Dragon displayed an aura of dignity and ferocity. Its body, dozens of meters long, was covered with greenish-blue dragon scales, between which glittered silvery light like stars in the night sky. Its claws were strong and powerful, their tips gleaming with a sharp light capable of tearing apart mountains. Its horns stood high like greatswords, revealing boundless majesty and power. The Azure Dragon’s wings were broad and magnificent, covered with transparent, water-like membranes. When it spread its wings, it stirred up gales and Thunder, commanding the power of the storm.
The White Tiger was graceful yet mighty. It measured dozens of meters in length, its snow-white fur emanating an icy chill. The White Tiger’s strong, muscular body revealed overwhelming power. Its eyes were like two ice crystals, flashing with a sharp, cold light. Its teeth were as sharp as blades, able to effortlessly tear through an enemy’s armor. Its claws were robust and powerful enough to shred rocks. The White Tiger’s massive tail, like a giant War Hammer, could easily crush an enemy’s defense.
The Vermilion Bird exuded a fiery and magnificent aura. It was dozens of meters in length, covered in brilliant, fiery red feathers. Each feather gave off a burning Flame. Its eyes were like two red gemstones, sparkling with a blazing, dazzling light. Its beak was slender and sharp, capable of emitting scorching Flame. The Vermilion Bird’s wings were expansive and beautiful, its feathers presenting various golden, red, and orange hues. Each time it soared, it left behind a magnificent trail of fire. Its tail, blossoming like a plume of Flame, served as a fiery rudder, making it more agile and ferocious in battle.
The Black Tortoise emanated a mystical and Solid aura. Of gigantic size, it possessed a tough shell on its back. Embedded within the shell, myriad gemstones radiated a mystical glow. The Black Tortoise’s head was round and steady, while its deep, calm eyes revealed endless wisdom. Its limbs were strong and sturdy, with claws as strong as steel that could withstand any attack. The Black Tortoise’s tail was robust and strong, like a War Hammer, able to easily shatter an enemy’s defense. Its shell formed an impenetrable fortress, capable of withstanding attacks from any direction.
These four divine beasts each demonstrated unique appearances and power. After sensing the attributes of these five Legendary creatures, Chen Mo realized that none of them were in their true forms.
Impostors? No, they all bear the essence of Divine Power. They’re not mere fakes. Could they be weakened Avatars of the divine beasts?
Just as Chen Mo was muttering to himself, the Giant Beast King positioned in the center began to speak.
"Intriguing Adventurer, your perception is quite good." The Giant Beast King’s voice was solemn and dignified. It echoed throughout the entire den, carrying a Sacred and majestic aura.
"We are the guardians of the Divine Spirit Birthplace, endowed with the power and form of divine beasts, but we are not their true selves," the Giant Beast King continued to explain. "We exist in this world as Avatars of the divine beasts to protect this den and the Divine Spirit Birthplace. Since you have come this far, in accordance with our God’s mandate, we will not let your journey be in vain. We shall present you with a corresponding trial."
"What trial?" Chen Mo asked.
"You are given the choice to challenge any one of us five. Of course, if you are confident in yourself, you may challenge multiple of us simultaneously. However, you have only one chance to choose. After your selection, you will receive different evaluations and rewards based on the number of us you successfully defeat." The Giant Beast King’s voice echoed throughout the den, its words extremely solemn and filled with supreme dignity.
Upon hearing this, Chen Mo smiled.
These five Legendary creatures, although powerful, are only Avatars of the divine beasts, existing solely to protect the Divine Spirit Birthplace. Their powers, while formidable, fall short by an unimaginable margin when compared to the true divine beasts—they’re nothing more than five insignificant presences.
"We choose to challenge all five," Chen Mo calmly declared.
"Brave one, I advise you to think carefully before answering. I haven’t finished speaking." The Giant Beast King’s profound gaze fell upon Chen Mo, scrutinizing him.
Then, the Giant Beast King spoke again, "There are mutual bonds among us five divine beast Avatars. If you choose to challenge the other four simultaneously, you will trigger the Four Sacred Beasts’ Bond!"
With that, the Giant Beast King lifted a claw and pointed around. "You’ve seen the Crystal Stones surrounding us. Once the Four Sacred Beasts’ Bond is triggered, these Crystal Stones will transfer massive amounts of Energy into them, greatly enhancing their combat strength.
"Challenging four at once already greatly increases the difficulty. Now, you would also have to face four extremely strengthened opponents. I’m afraid you might be biting off more than you can chew.
"And if you choose to challenge all five of us, it will trigger our Five Divine Beasts’ Bond, and our combined combat strength will increase even more significantly than with the Four Sacred Beasts’ Bond!"
Finally, the Giant Beast King looked at Chen Mo with great interest and asked, "So, are you still sure you want to challenge all five of us at once?"
