Beasts: Only I Can See the Hidden Evolution Path

Chapter 91: The Power of the Dragon Shocks the Arena, A Peak Showdown!

A grand battle erupted at the Navy Headquarters.

With a command from Murong Jin, all naval soldiers summoned their beasts and charged toward the hillside.

Xiao Xingyu, cloaked in black, stood firm atop the slope, his features obscured by a ghostly mask. He appeared calm, but inside he was a bundle of nerves.

This was the Navy Headquarters, and not only were there warships nearby, but the sheer number of navy soldiers on the island instilled a profound sense of helplessness and fear.

The lower-ranking navy soldiers were mostly four-star or five-star beastmasters.

The navy vice admirals ranged from six to eight stars.

Moreover, two nine-star generals were stationed at the heart of the battlefield.

In short, given the strategic deployment of the navy, even a powerful being like the Bull Demon King would have to comply.

At that moment, countless navy soldiers and their beasts surged up the slope, encircling Xiao Xingyu and the injured Medusa.

In a critical moment, Dai Lu’s eyes flashed, glaring at the two generals who were watching from the sidelines!

An incredibly terrifying force erupted from Dai Lu, forming a purple-gold mist that rippled across Icefire Island.

This mysterious power possessed the ability to devastate everything in its path; all navy soldiers collapsed, their faces pale, unable to utter a word.

The beasts summoned by the navy fell into unconsciousness, foaming at the mouth.

Higher-ranked beasts, while not unconscious, lay on the ground, eyes filled with panic and fear.

The howling winds and dark clouds obscured the moon.

Thunder clashed with the earth, shaking the entire island.

Murong Jin's expression darkened as he fixed his gaze on Dai Lu.

"This fox seems to have evolved…"

Bai Yu narrowed his eyes, his voice grave, "Based on the aura she’s emitting, she has advanced from beast emperor to beast god level."

"No!"

"Not just that!"

"Old Bai, this special power… doesn’t it resemble the power of the Dragon from two hundred years ago?"

Once reminded, Bai Yu's face changed dramatically.

"Brother Jin, it’s not a matter of resemblance; this is the Dragon's power!"

The two seasoned generals quickly recognized that the aura emanating from Dai Lu was indeed the power of the Dragon!

Murong Jin's eyes widened as he watched the changes taking place on Dai Lu.

At that moment, purple-gold dragon scales appeared on her profile, and irregular dragon horns sprouted from her head.

Dai Lu clenched her fists, her nails growing wildly like bamboo shoots after rain, her arms covered in dragon scales…

With a clawing motion, her dragon-like hands seemed to tear apart the already unstable space, revealing a glimpse of the distorted air!

As the power of the Dragon spread, Dai Lu's pupils transformed into slits, her killing intent flooding like a rising tide.

Slitted pupils were one of the hallmarks of pure-blooded dragons.

"Dragon scales, dragon horns, dragon claws, and dragon eyes."

"Brother Jin, it’s confirmed; this fox is releasing the power of pure-blooded dragons!"

Bai Yu sighed deeply, marveling, "So it appears this fox is no longer a Nine-Tailed Fox, but a Nine-Tailed Dragon Fox."

The Dragon Fox was a mysterious species that had never appeared since the establishment of the beastmaster civilization.

Now, with this species emerging, it was bound to create a tremendous stir in the beastmaster world.

Despite his shock, Murong Jin fell into deep thought.

"Pure-blooded dragons were extinct in the Dragon-Slaying War two hundred years ago."

"Why does this fox possess the power of the Dragon?"

"Though I don’t know what this fox experienced after escaping the Empress's pursuit..."

Murong Jin raised his gaze to Xiao Xingyu.

"But the power of the Dragon must be related to this Black Robe!"

With the mysterious identity of the Black Robe, Murong Jin and Bai Yu dared not underestimate him.

Now, with Dai Lu unleashing terrifying Dragon power, it was enough to stun all beasts below the king level, causing even beast emperor level beasts to tremble.

"Old Bai, this guy is an extremely dangerous individual; we cannot let him leave Icefire Island."

"We're on the same page."

Both generals realized the threat the Black Robe posed to Dragon Kingdom and activated their beastmaster seals.

Crack, crack!

The sound of the earth splitting echoed.

Cracks spread like a spiderweb, engulfing every corner of the island.

Boom!

With a deafening explosion, the ground beneath Xiao Xingyu rippled like waves.

In less than half a second, a massive carnivorous flower burst forth from the ground!

Xiao Xingyu, Medusa, and Dai Lu were swallowed by the flower, plunging into darkness.

On the battlefield, the disoriented navy soldiers finally breathed a sigh of relief, cold sweat forming into tiny beads at the corners of their mouths.

"This—this is a beast god-level beast, the Cursed Demon Flower?"

"Seeing it in person is far more impressive than hearing about it; the ancient bloodline of this plant-type beast is astounding."

"General Bai Yu truly lives up to the title of the God of Plant-type Beasts; he dealt with the intruders in one move!"

From a high vantage point, one would see a massive floral plant had appeared on Icefire Island.

This was one of Bai Yu's beasts, the Cursed Demon Flower, which possessed an ancient bloodline and was a beast god-level creature.

The Cursed Demon Flower resembled a giant carnivorous plant, large enough to cover half the island, its body a vivid crimson, exuding a strange odor from consuming countless beasts.

Its sharp teeth remained closed, trapping enemies inside, where they would be digested, leaving behind nothing but blood.

Thud—

Thud—

Thud—

The sound echoed across the island and into the sky, resembling a human heartbeat.

Yet this was not a heartbeat; it was the sound of the Cursed Demon Flower secreting digestive fluid.

Indeed, the Cursed Demon Flower was a plant-type beast, but it had internal structures akin to those of a mammalian beast, complete with organs!

When Xiao Xingyu opened his eyes, he found himself in a vast, enclosed space.

This space resembled an underground cavern, black water lapping at his ankles, surrounded by hard barriers.

Medusa was right beside Xiao Xingyu and quickly assessed the situation.

"This is the stomach space of the Cursed Demon Flower."

In the darkness, rustling sounds filled the air.

Xiao Xingyu's pupils trembled.

Countless monsters surged from all directions!

These creatures appeared to be unknown beings stitched together from various beasts, their mouths and eyes twisted and askew, bones protruding grotesquely.

Medusa's complexion worsened.

"The Cursed Demon Flower has fought alongside Bai Yu for many years; who knows how many beasts it has consumed."

"Once the beasts are killed by the digestive fluid, they become these monsters, waiting for the next visitor…"

Xiao Xingyu licked his cracked lips, realizing that the "visitors" referred to him and Medusa.

In this moment of crisis, Xiao Xingyu channeled his spirit power, summoning through their blood contract.

"Lu Lu!"

A streak of light flashed, and Dai Lu shielded Xiao Xingyu.

"Master, I'm here."
