Chapter 350 Behemoth

As Xuefeng released all his wives, they soared into the sky of the God Realm and looked at the vast forest below. They had heard a lot about this place, many claiming it was one of the most dangerous Realms, yet their surroundings couldn't have been more peaceful.

"So, what is the plan?" Ryan questioned, casually cracking his knuckles. "Does anyone know the way to this Godly Arena, or should we just wait for those experts?"

Xuefeng took a deep breath of the air filled with all nine Elemental Qis and almost choked on the low-quality Qi. "I would rather get this done quickly. The air here is rich in elements, but it cannot compare to Emi's Realm," Xuefeng commented in disgust. He had grown too used to breathing high-quality Qi, which Emi had stolen from other Realms Beyond the Heaven.

He remembered the Soul Fragment they had collected from Crazy Zhang, the expert from the God Realm they had killed after he attempted to take their Fire Stone. He pulled out the translucent ball of Soul Power wrapped in his Fate Qi, and it pulled him forward as if trying to return to its owner.

"We can use this Soul Fragment to lead us towards that son of a bitch who attacked us in his Avatar. I'm sure we'll find some cities along the way and discover the location of that arena," Xuefeng suggested, causing Wuying to look at him excitedly. She had wanted to kill that man for a while, and now was finally her chance to get revenge.

"Even though we are much stronger now, we should still proceed with caution," Tianshi warned, calming their excitement. "Remember, we'll be heavily outnumbered, and they won't be in their limited state anymore. Most of them must have reached the peak of the Ancient Celestial and already received their blessings. We can't just fight them without a plan."

"I agree. It's clear that the Godly Arena is a massive trap set up by that old man, knowing we have no choice but to walk right into it. Unless we want to be at a disadvantage, we should first figure out what we're up against," Xiao Wen said seriously. "How about we send an Avatar to check what kind of traps are set in the Arena while the rest of us can test our skills against the other experts?"

"That's not a bad idea," Xuefeng nodded as he looked at the Thunder Goddess. "Wouldn't you be the best for that job? You're the only one who wasn't associated with us when we fought Crazy Zhang, so you should be able to sneak in unnoticed."

"I don't mind, but I have never made one, so it should take a moment even with Ling and Ming's help," the Thunder Goddess replied. "You can stall until I'm done."

"Alright, I'll release you once we know the location of the arena," Xuefeng nodded as Ling absorbed her back into her pocket world. Avatars were special clones that one had to control directly, and they couldn't move their own body while maneuvering their Avatar.

"Let's move. I have a bad feeling about this place," Tianshi informed as she looked around. "I can't sense any movement in the area, which is strange for such a large forest. There should be at least a couple of beasts here and there, but there is nothing as if something scared them away."

"Whatever it is, we'll deal with it," Xuefeng assured as he loosened the Soul Fragment and allowed it to lead them. "If we can't even deal with the dangers of the God Realm, then becoming a Constellation is out of the question."

"Constellation? What's that?" Ryan questioned in confusion, and Xuefeng took this opportunity to explain their current situation. He was in the middle of describing the Celestial Blessings when Tianshi's expression suddenly turned grave.

"Everyone, get in formation!" Tianshi called out, casting all kinds of buffs and shields while moving to the backlines. "That beast almost killed us!"

Ryan was taken aback by the sudden warning, while everyone else reacted without questioning, knowing Tianshi could see the near future. Xuefeng managed to drag Ryan into position when a wave of Earth Qi washed over them, the pressure of the aura bringing them to the ground.

"Damn, what was that?" Ryan cursed as he struggled to stay on his feet. He watched everyone activate their Dragon Bloodline and didn't hesitate to transform into his half-beast form.

"It's a Spirit Beast, a powerful one," Bella informed, her body burning with colorful flames. "I'm guessing it must have received a Celestial Blessing because that aura is even more powerful than mine."

As she spoke, they finally saw the beast; its colossal body was visible on the horizon as it stomped toward them at an immeasurable speed. They could easily escape if they could fly, but the aura of the earth prevented anything from rising off the ground.

"We have no choice but to fight it. Bella, Katherine, and Mona, I'm counting on you," Xuefeng ordered as he locked the space around them, all five Elemental Domains activating in full force. The earth restriction was immediately lifted, but he found it hard to expand his domain, showcasing the oppressive force they were up against.

The three ladies nodded, knowing it was their time to shine. All of Xuefeng's wives were powerful, but when it came to fighting Spirit Beasts, the best opponents for them were other beasts.

Thud! Thud! Thud!

The giant stormed toward them, each step shaking the forest and ripping trees in every direction. It was more than a hundred meters tall, with pale white scales covering its entire body. Its long head extended forward in an unnatural shape, its eyes pitch-black with no visible retinas, and its mouth lined with a collection of jagged teeth.

"That's a weird-ass turtle," Ryan commented just as the ladies completed their full transformation, launching at the beast in all their glory. A cry of the Phoenix resounded in the sky as Bella flew alongside the Golden Dragon, Katherine's lightning brighter than the sun. Mona followed them on the ground as a flaming nine-tailed fox, her body tiny in comparison.

'He calls himself Behemoth and he has indeed received a Celestial Blessing,' Tianshi introduced through their mind connection. 'I can only see one clear outcome for the future, but you still need to be careful of his vines. This whole forest is his domain, and he controls all the greenery. Once he catches any of you, he will attempt to eat you with the second mouth under his belly.'

'What's his weakness?' Katherine questioned as they sped up to face Behemoth head-on.

'It must be his insides since Mona killed it after she was swallowed,' Tianshi hesitated with her answer. 'The future is unpredictable, so it's too risky to repeat the same trick on purpose.'

'That won't be needed,' Bella replied confidently as she split from Katherine and folded her wings, resembling a flaming arrow. Her speed momentarily broke the limits of the naked eye as she sped straight into Behemoth's head.

Bella's body cut through the tough scales, and her momentum continued as she drilled a hole into the turtle's head, emerald blood gushing out of the wound. She swiftly circled around to its back and slammed from its side, piercing all the way to the other side like a living spear. She repeated the same maneuver a few more times, filling Behemoth with holes, yet all they heard was a deep laugh.

"Nice try, birdy!" he roared, laughing without stopping. "No one can stop Behemoth's charge!"

It quickly became clear her attack didn't do much damage as the turtle's head regenerated and closed the hole, continuing his charge without even looking at her. Bella only frowned as she tried again, this time spreading her wings to cut off his long head, but that failed as well.

"You cannot kill me! My Gate provides me with limitless lifeforce!" Behemoth announced proudly as he grew another head. "Get lost before I get ang—"

He couldn't finish his sentence as Bella appeared once again, this time aiming for his legs, slicing them all with two swift cuts. Behemoth failed to regrow his limbs in time and slammed into the ground, the earth shaking as he slid through thousands of trees.

"Cut it out, you—" Behemoth tried to curse, but Katherine finally arrived on the scene, her whole body weight slamming his head into the ground. Her golden lightning burst out from her claws, and his scales exploded in all directions.

"Let's see how long it will take for your Constellation to take away your blessing," Katherine countered as she ripped off his head each time it regenerated. Bella wasn't idle as she joined her sister in doing as much damage as possible.

"How the hell is that thing still alive?" Ryan questioned in surprise, watching the scene with widened eyes. "Should we help them?"

"No, let's wait for Mona. Her ability seems to be the only thing working against him," Tianshi replied out loud as they watched from afar.

They might have been effective killers against other humanoid cultivators, but beasts this size were on another level they couldn't compete with.
