Chapter 434: Chapter 47 The Ferocious Beast Roars_1

Yao Bofu knew that the secret that had been hidden for many years could not be concealed anymore, he could still keep some reservations, but if Huanglong Daoist were to speak, he was afraid even the underwear would be laid bare.

Thus, Yao Bofu said, "No one knows where Chiyou is buried; what is buried here is not Chiyou, but Chiyou’s mount—the Iron-eating Beast!"

Upon hearing this, Princess Mudan’s eyes lit up, and she suddenly looked up with a cry of surprise, "The Iron-eating Beast? It is said that the Iron-eating Beast followed Chiyou in battles across the world from its youth. Do you plan to use the Iron-eating Beast’s familiarity with Chiyou’s scent to find the site of Chiyou’s seal? What exactly are you plotting? If Chiyou is released, the world will descend into chaos, etiquette and music will crumble, how will there be peace under the overturned earth?"

Huanglong Daoist chuckled and said, "Little girl, you are very clever, but not as clever as your brother. Some things are better known and not asked about. The more you know, the more you ask, the quicker you die."

Princess Mudan looked towards Emperor Jin, whose bright eyes flickered, clearly having guessed everything she had just said, simply choosing not to articulate it.

However, after hearing these words, Yao Bofu stepped forward again, bowed deeply to Huanglong Daoist and said, "Senior, I have a question to ask."

Huanglong Daoist said, "Speak."

Yao Bofu said, "Do you really intend to release Chiyou? Chiyou is the greatest War God of ancient times, full of ambition and lofty aspirations. If released, I fear that even you, Senior, may not be able to control him and instead be harmed by him. Why go to such lengths?"

Huanglong Daoist waved his hand and said, "How can a sparrow understand the ambition of a swan?"

Yao Bofu narrowed his eyes and asked, "You must release him?"

Huanglong Daoist nodded.

Yao Bofu smiled faintly, stepped back, and then struck his chest with his palm, ready to spurt heart’s blood onto the ancestor box!

Just at that moment, a hand that seemed to travel through time and space, moving as fast as lightning, suddenly struck the back of Yao Bofu’s neck. Yao Bofu grunted but did not faint, instead turning back in anger!

The person who had acted was none other than the man in white following behind Emperor Jin!

The man in white gave a surprised yell, then sent another palm strike down. In the nick of time, Yao Bofu snorted coldly. The ancestor box suddenly rose up and sent the man in white flying, wrapping around Yao Bofu as they disappeared into the void.

At the same time, the man in white’s robe tore, revealing a face that was sinister and predatory like an eagle’s, and his eyes were as sharp as knives. He wore the armor of a military officer, looking quite majestic.

Princess Mudan cried out, "Brother, you..."

Emperor Jin remained silent.

The man glanced at Princess Mudan and remained silent as well.

Princess Mudan wanted to ask something but ultimately gave up.

Huanglong True Master looked at Emperor Jin and sighed, "Is it fortunate for the Tang Dynasty to have you?"

Facing Huanglong True Master’s inquiry, Emperor Jin kept his mouth shut, quietly watching as the rabbit fling away the bamboo and three drops of blood flew towards the three branches of the stone.

"Too slow!" Sun Wukong said.

Qin Shou said, "Are you okay..."

As his voice fell, the stone in front of them suddenly began to swell rapidly. The once ordinary stone turned into a blood-red color, or more accurately, an iron-red color! As red as rust!

A dark light spread out, and the surrounding scenery shattered!

All the earthly scenes disappeared!

What came into view was still the scenery of the Earthly Immortal Realm!

The old swindler suddenly realized and exclaimed, "Damn it! We just walked into a Formation; what we saw were all illusions! This is not the Shungong Stone; this stone has a problem!"

Sun Wukong said, "Not just the stones, even the bamboos are problematic! We’ve been set up!"

With Fiery Eyes Golden Gaze activated, Sun Wukong suddenly turned around and saw the faraway Huanglong Daoist along with Gouyun, Emperor Jin, and others.

The Huanglong Daoist, Emperor Jin, and Princess Mudan were strangers, but Gouyun was someone they recognized.

The Huanglong Daoist looked at the trio and said with a smile, "Many thanks to the three of you for releasing the Iron-eating Beast. Should you survive, you shall be handsomely rewarded in the future."

Qin Shou was startled—the Iron-eating Beast? Survive for a future reward?

What does he mean?

And who were those strangers? The lady seemed pretty good-looking too.

Before Qin Shou could fathom a thought with his rabbit brain, a tremendous boom erupted behind him, shattering a boulder into thirds with a sound like the splitting of the heavens and earth, sending a terrifying wave of blood-red shock throughout!

Qin Shou was sent flying by the shockwave, tumbling wildly with the wind across the ground.

The old swindler, having fallen to the ground first, wasn’t blown away.

Sun Wukong wasn’t much better off, having stabbed his Golden Cudgel into the ground, clutching it tightly to keep from being blown away.

All the surrounding flowers, plants, and trees were obliterated by the blast, while the stone exploded into a shower of debris, shooting out in all directions like bullets.

With a wave of his sleeve, the Huanglong Daoist blocked the debris and the shockwave, indirectly protecting Emperor Jin and the others.

After the shockwave passed, the dust settled, obscuring everyone’s vision and leaving it unclear what had emerged within.

The Huanglong Daoist said with a smile, "After so many years, he has finally been released."

Princess Mudan murmured, "It is said that the Iron-eating Beast must feed upon awakening, and those who release it are certain to die. So, you didn’t release it yourself but made the rabbits do it, right?"

The Huanglong Daoist replied, "Through the ages, when it comes to ferocity, the Iron-eating Beast is indeed one of the most terrifying. During the great battle between Yan Emperor and Huang Emperor and Chiyou, most of the slaughter actually came from the Iron-eating Beast. The beast feeds on the essence of heaven and earth as well as various ores, and what it spits out are magic treasures!"

"What?" Princess Mudan was stunned. "Are the legends true? But how is this possible?"

The Huanglong Daoist said calmly with a smile, "Chiyou was powerful, but without a strong army, how could he wage war against all under heaven? His subordinates practiced the ’Chiyou Mantra,’ with unmentionable combat prowess. But what was truly terrifying was that each of his subordinates wielded at least a nurture treasure! Just think about it, the power that could erupt when countless identical magic treasures combined... how horrifying would it be?

Moreover, those treasures formed a formation that amplified Chiyou and the Iron-eating Beast, making them even stronger. They could even confront Yan Emperor and Huang Emperor alone, suppressing all the Heavenly Gods until the Xuanyuan Sword appeared and turned the tide of battle.

What’s truly fearsome about the Iron-eating Beast is that given time and enough heavenly and earthly treasures, it can produce magic treasures designed specifically to counter anything!

In theory, even the Xuanyuan Sword, given time, could be countered by a magic treasure produced by the Iron-eating Beast.

Therefore, Emperor Huang kept the Xuanyuan Sword hidden as soon as it was forged, only bringing it out at the critical moment for a decisive strike!"

"Hiss!" Hearing this information, everyone gasped in shock!

Emperor Jin’s eyes shone even brighter...

The Huanglong Daoist continued, "Likewise, the Iron-eating Beast has a tremendous appetite and is exceptionally picky. Ordinary items cannot sustain or tame it. Starved for so many years, it must be starving and will surely need something exquisite to eat. That Monkey is a naturally born spirit monkey, and that rabbit... well, it’s quite plump... The old man has quite a few treasures on him; they should be enough for the Iron-eating Beast to feast on."

When the Huanglong Daoist spoke of the rabbit, his eyes flashed with a strange glint, clearly indicating that he was lying.

With that said, the Huanglong Daoist spread his arms and announced, "The time is just about right. Prepare to welcome the roar of the beast—the most ferocious kind!"
