Chapter 310: Chapter 309: Finally Comprehending the Four Symbols
"ROAR!" "ROAR!"
Two roars echoed. One was deep and powerful, like the king of all beasts, while the other was slightly hoarse yet bone-chillingly sinister. In the mountain forest, two Fierce Beasts, each the size of a small hill, were locked in a fierce battle. Blood splattered and flesh flew everywhere!!
One of these two Fierce Beasts was shaped like a tiger but had a long scorpion tail—it was the infamous Scorpion-Tailed Poison Tiger. The other was pitch-black like ink, with four eyes on its forehead and tusks like ivory jutting from its jaw.
The two Fierce Beasts used no techniques, only the most primitive form of combat. Teeth, claws, tails, heads—every part of their bodies seemed to be a weapon as they relentlessly attacked each other. Each blow shook the forest, sending dirt and rocks tumbling and splintering trees...
"ROAR!!"
The pitch-black Fierce Beast suddenly let out a pained roar. The Scorpion-Tailed Poison Tiger’s tail was embedded in its abdomen, continuously injecting clouds of black mist. A human-like sneer appeared on the poison tiger’s face.
The wave of pain, however, only triggered the Fierce Beast’s savage nature. It grabbed the poison tiger’s tail fiercely with its claws and rammed its head forward recklessly. SHKT! Its ivory-like tusks plunged directly into the poison tiger’s chest, missing its heart by a hair’s breadth.
Just as both were grievously wounded, another roar entered the battlefield. A dragon-headed, tiger-shaped Fierce Beast covered in black fur stepped in. It glanced at the two Fierce Beasts with contempt, then leaped forward. Its claws came down like colossal mountains, pinning both beasts underfoot. Amidst their screams, it crushed them into pulp!
The black Fierce Beast reached into the chests of the two beasts and pulled out two steaming hearts. A greedy look flashed in its eyes as it swallowed them whole. Its lantern-like eyes narrowed slightly, and it let out a groan, seemingly savoring the meal.
Suddenly, a profound sense of crisis enveloped the black Fierce Beast. Without hesitation, it leaped far into the distance. The instant it moved, a spear shimmering with purple lightning pierced the ground, creating a deafening explosion. The blast carved a crater into the earth and obliterated more than half of the previous two Fierce Beasts’ bodies. The sight of crimson blood stimulated the black Fierce Beast. Its pupils shrank as it scanned its surroundings and let out a deep roar!
"Tsk, this Beast King is not bad!" At that moment, a playful voice slowly sounded. The black behemoth looked up to see a young man in white robes with ink-black hair standing in the void, looking down at it condescendingly.
"ROAR!!"
Seeing this, the black Fierce Beast roared furiously and leaped up. In the blink of an eye, it soared hundreds of zhang high, its gaping maw opened wide as it charged menacingly toward Qin Ya.
Qin Ya chuckled at the sight. He raised one hand high, and in an instant, endless Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi gathered into his right palm. He then viciously slapped the black Fierce Beast across the face. BOOM! The beast was sent flying.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM...
The mountain range shook and sand filled the air. The black behemoth tumbled into a great river, creating a huge splash. The water churned, and the black behemoth burst out, charging toward Qin Ya once more. Its body was so massive that its charge kicked up a billowing cloud of dust behind it.
"Thunder!!"
Qin Ya let out a low shout. Endless Thunder materialized around him, coalescing into dozens of Thunder Spears that pulsed with world-destroying power. The black behemoth’s charging figure froze. An expression of instinctual fear appeared on its face, and it immediately turned and fled in the opposite direction, covering hundreds of zhang in the blink of an eye...
"Trying to run? Not happening now!"
With another low shout, he sent the Thunder Spears shooting out one by one. The earth couldn’t withstand their immense power and was blasted with huge craters. The black Fierce Beast was struck by six or seven Thunder Spears, and more than half of its body was blown away. Amidst a shower of flesh and blood, it collapsed to the ground, let out a few low whimpers, and then breathed its last.
"Heh, a common Beast King is no longer a threat to me."
Qin Ya smiled faintly, recalling the time back in the Yunxiao Empire when he and the other geniuses of the Imperial Capital had to flee pathetically from a Beast King.
But now, he could kill a Beast King with ease!
He brought the black Beast King back to his temporary dwelling and had a hearty meal. BOOM. The Devouring Power in his bloodline suddenly activated, completely consuming the Demonic Qi contained within the beast’s flesh. Qin Ya felt his Qi and Blood grow considerably stronger. He was already used to this, so it came as no surprise. He then reinforced the Array and began to comprehend the Four Symbols Mysteries.
Yes, the Four Symbols Mysteries.
Qin Ya had already recovered from the injuries inflicted by the bald elder of the Blood Nether Association, but he remained in the Celestial Demon Mountain Range, in no hurry to leave. On one hand, he wanted to use the Demonic Qi in the Celestial Demon Mountain Range to test his bloodline. On the other, he was beginning to merge the Mysteries of Ice and Fire, Thunder, and Wind to form the Four Symbols.
He had been in the Celestial Demon Mountain Range for half a month. During this time, through numerous battles with Fierce Beasts, his control over the various Mysteries had become increasingly deft, and the progress of their fusion had slowly increased. Compared to secluded, death-like cultivation, Qin Ya’s efficiency was countless times greater. In just half a month, the fusion of his Mysteries was mostly complete. He was just one final step away from forming the Four Symbols Mysteries.
And today, he felt the time was right.
An unknown number of sunrises and sunsets passed. As the Mysteries merged, the True Essence within Qin Ya’s body began to circulate on its own, drawing upon the Mysteries of Heaven and Earth. A hurricane formed around him, and within it, streaks of purple lightning danced.
In addition, an ice-blue Flame suddenly surged forth, breaking through the concealment of the Array. Within a thousand zhang, the area transformed into a sea of fire. But this sea of fire had no heat; instead, it radiated an endless, bitter cold—a chill that felt as if it could freeze the very Soul! Not long after this strange phenomenon occurred, a dozen Beast Kings roared with what seemed like provoked fury and charged toward Qin Ya’s location.
"ROAR!"
"HISS..."
A giant white tiger radiating a cold aura roared. The endless chill condensed into an icy path before it, temporarily blocking Qin Ya’s Ice Flame. The White Tiger then charged toward Qin Ya, treading upon this icy road...
In the sky, a majestic, golden-winged hawk unfurled its wings, spanning dozens of zhang. With a powerful flap, a gale swept out, colliding with Qin Ya’s hurricane...
BOOM, BOOM, BOOM...
The mountain range trembled ceaselessly. A Giant Ape with muscles like rolling hills shouldered a mountain peak and roared as it charged in Qin Ya’s direction. Everywhere it passed, trees were shattered, rocks crumbled, and sand flew into the air. Countless Fierce Beasts were trampled into paste beneath its feet...
At this moment, Qin Ya, who was comprehending the Four Symbols Mysteries, was well aware of the situation he faced. However, he showed no sign of panic. He continued to follow the method recorded in the Four Symbols Technique, focusing on comprehending the nearly complete Four Symbols Mysteries...
A thousand zhang, eight hundred zhang, five hundred zhang...
The Beast Kings drew closer and closer to Qin Ya. When they were just a hundred zhang away, the Giant Ape roared at the sky and hurled the mountain peak in its hands. The peak flew forward, carrying the whistling might of Wind Thunder.
There was no doubt that if he were hit by this mountain peak, Qin Ya would be smashed into pulp. But at that very moment, his eyes slowly opened...
