NFBE Chapter 58 Great Chaos
Chapter 58 Great Chaos
At this moment, darkness, like a thick, airtight black cloth, covered the entire forest completely, making people feel suffocated and their chests pounding with anxiety.
Various sinister creatures suddenly emerged from the darkness, their eyes gleaming with an eerie light, sending chills down one's spine.
In the gloomy jungle, the night wind blew silently, the leaves rustled, and various noises came and went intermittently, making it all the more eerie.
The surrounding trees stood there dark and menacing, no different from grotesque ghosts. Their branches and leaves thrashed wildly in the darkness, as if they might pounce down at any moment and tear a person to pieces.
Occasionally, wisps of mist drift slowly through the forest, like ghosts wandering about, sending chills down one's spine and making one's heart tremble.
In the distance, a piercing howl, loud enough to tear through the night sky, pierced Bai Ling's ears, sending chills down her spine and raising goosebumps all over her body.
Immediately afterwards, several different screams rang out one after another: a sharp screech like that of a fox being choked, a terrified scream like that of a rabbit whose liver and gallbladder were about to burst, and the desperate wail of an unknown small wild animal.
The sounds of the wind, the rustling of leaves, and the screams of wild beasts, along with the ghostly drifting mist, all blended together to create a terrifying scene that could terrify anyone.
This place was like it had been cursed. Bai Ling was so scared that she couldn't stay still. She was anxious and angry, and wanted to rush up and slap her master. She licked Han Yi's face and head for a long time before finally waking him from his obsessive state of cultivation.
Han Yi opened his eyes, about to curse Bai Ling, when his gaze suddenly sharpened like an eagle's. He instantly sensed the eerie energy surrounding him. With a "whoosh," the Aoxue Sword was drawn cleanly and crisply, its cold light flashing as it hovered steadily in front of him. He had been so engrossed in his cultivation that he only now realized that the entire Netherworld Forest was in chaos, as if a pot had been boiled over. All the wild beasts had awakened, and chaos reigned everywhere.
Fortunately, Han Yi's cultivation had reached the Great Perfection of Qi Refining, and his eyes were incredibly sharp. Even in the dark, it was no different from broad daylight to him.
Looking again, they saw that Han Yi was locked in a fierce battle with the frenzied beasts that were desperately trying to charge towards them. Bai Ling was not to be outdone; as soon as Han Yi opened his eyes, it darted into the battlefield.
Just then, a wild rabbit, as if possessed, lunged straight at Han Yi with fierce eyes. Before Han Yi could even make a move, Bai Ling reacted with lightning speed, letting out a "whoosh" and biting the rabbit to death in one bite, swallowing it whole. Her movements were clean and swift, like lightning.
Looking around, the wild beasts in the forest seemed to have gone mad, attacking each other recklessly, creating utter chaos. Besides these tiny creatures, there were also terrifyingly large ones, several times bigger than the Earthshaker, rampaging through the woods like out-of-control giant war machines, knocking trees over and making a constant "crackling" sound.
Han Yi knew in his heart that if it weren't for Han Di and Bai Ling risking their lives to protect him, he would definitely be dead here today. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but complain in his heart: "What the hell is this place? It's a chaotic battlefield!"
As he was muttering to himself, a colossal beast resembling a mammoth set its sights on him. This behemoth was covered in thick, coarse gray fur, as stiff as steel needles; its limbs were as thick as tree trunks, and with each step, the earth trembled violently, rumbling like an earthquake. A pair of curved, sharp tusks on its head gleamed coldly, like two enormous scythes, seemingly capable of easily piercing steel. Mysterious patterns were etched on the tusks, exuding an ancient and dangerous aura. Its eyes, like two large red lanterns, emitted a chilling light in the darkness, inspiring fear in anyone who looked at them.
Han Yi's eyes lit up as he stared at the giant beast, thinking to himself, "Eating this thing would definitely be very nutritious!" Without hesitation, he sent out his Aoxue Sword with a "whoosh," its cold light flashing, slicing through several ferocious beasts as easily as cutting tofu.
Han Yi had just finished cleaning up when, overcome with passion, he didn't care about anything else. He clenched his right fist and roared, "Today I'll test my physical strength on you!" With that, he charged towards the mammoth.
The mammoth was no pushover either. Seeing Han Yi charging towards it, it raised its head like an enraged bull, let out a furious roar, brandished its terrifying tusks, and charged straight at him. Along the way, it didn't bother to avoid any large trees blocking its path. With a few cracking sounds, the trees, as thick as bowls, were snapped in half as if they were made of paper and crashed to the ground.
In the blink of an eye, the mammoth collided with Han Yi. With a muffled thud, Han Yi felt an overwhelming force crashing down on him. He was thrown several meters away like a kite with a broken string, crashing into several trees before finally coming to a stop. Fortunately, Han Yi had cultivated diligently and was very robust. With his divine energy protecting him, he was completely unharmed from the impact.
Han Yi got up from the ground, dusted himself off, and stared wide-eyed. Instead of being afraid, he was even more excited: "This beast is strong enough. Eating it will definitely be a great tonic!" With that, he roared and charged forward again, fighting with the mammoth once more.
Both man and beast were acting like they had no regard for their lives, neither defending themselves, only knowing how to attack. Although Han Yi was skilled, in terms of strength, he was no match for this mammoth. Every time they clashed, he was sent flying far away. But Han Yi's stubbornness kicked in; he refused to admit defeat. Every time he was knocked away, he would get up and charge back, muttering, "I don't believe I can't deal with you today!"
Watching Han Yi suffer a loss, Bai Ling was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan. Seizing an opportunity, it flashed around to the side of the mammoth with lightning speed. Taking advantage of the mammoth's inattention, it roared, opened its huge mouth, and took a big bite. With a "ripping" sound, it tore off a large chunk of flesh.
The mammoth cried out in pain, frantically swinging its injured leg, trying to kick Bai Ling to death. But Bai Ling was clever; the instant it finished biting the meat, it darted back to safety, leaving the mammoth glaring at it helplessly.
At the same time, Earthshaker saw that Han Yi was in trouble, roared, and strode over to help. But unexpectedly, another mammoth appeared out of nowhere, charging out from the side like a madman and blocking Earthshaker's path.
The mammoth that had intruded was no slouch either. It raised its paw and, with tremendous force, slammed it down on the head of the first mammoth with a loud "bang." The first mammoth was hit so hard by the sudden blow that its head spun, its body swayed, and then it collapsed to the ground like a lump of mud, becoming the scapegoat.
Earthshaker wouldn't let this opportunity slip by. Seizing the chance, it opened its massive mammoth ...
Almost simultaneously, Han Yi's Aoxue Sword also pierced through the head of the mammoth that was already injured in the leg with a "whoosh".
Now that the two troublemakers were dealt with, Han Yi and the two beasts quickly huddled together, back to back, warily scanning their surroundings. Han Yi knew perfectly well that his principle was simple: he wouldn't provoke these wild beasts, but if any fool dared to throw their lives away, he would show no mercy.
The Proud Snow Sword, like a loyal guardian, circled Han Yi incessantly. Whenever a wild beast pounced, it was pierced through instantly by the sword before it could even get three zhang away, splattering blood everywhere. This place wasn't originally an open space; the previous harrowing battle with the mammoth had knocked down several large trees, clearing this area. The cold moonlight shone on Han Yi, giving him a silvery edge and making him appear exceptionally aloof.
A small knife flew out from Han Yi's waist with a "whoosh" and, under his control, quickly dissected the giant mammoth not far away. Although Han Yi had not yet cultivated divine sense, he knew the Myriad Manifestations Technique, and although he could only control two flying swords, it was enough for the current situation.
Han Yi, meanwhile, leisurely roasted the meat while controlling two flying swords, one large and one small. He kept a watchful eye on everything around him, mercilessly slaying any wild beasts that approached. Bai Ling and Han Di, meanwhile, were leisurely eating raw meat, their mouths greasy with oil. They knew that with such a powerful master as Han Yi, they had nothing to worry about.
