Chapter 67
The first thing the audience could see is a giant brown bone. Not just one but a lot of these bones. As if they were segmented bones. These bones are connected with each other and swirling itself just like a snake. Another shocking thing was the size of those bones. Each segment probably around three to four full grown man, probably larger than that. From the swirling itself, they didn't want to know how long these bones are. However, the swirling bones still have smoke covering the top area where the source of these bones.
It wasn't long until they heard a sharp roar came from the center of the smoke. All of a sudden, they saw something they will never forget for the rest of their lives. All eyes are on the creature suddenly emerge from the smoke.
"ROOOOAAARRRRRR" Sharp roar sounded as the creature emerge from the smoke and roared towards the sky as if it was the king of all beasts. Some of the people actually scared and traumatized seeing the creature.
If they were to describe, it was considered impossible because this creature is totally made from bones. The creature from afar really look like….
"Senior sister, that's a snake right?" Yuanba asked Cang Yue next to him after seeing the creature.
"How could that thing be a snake?" Cang Yue was speechless after seeing this thing up close. Inside, she was hoping this creature is just her nightmare and she was sleeping soundly somewhere in her room. But, this is reality.
The creature had white skull like head. A closer look shows this is the skull of a snake but the skull was actually alive rather than dead. As if the creature never died in its life. The bones felt as if they were alive. However, its skull was different compared to a demon snake. This creature has sharper fangs as its teeth and bright yellow eyes. It also has three segmented holes beside its eyes. Moreover, the skull was surrounded by a large mane of red fur.
The audience was shocked and some of them unable to get up from the shock. Qin Wuyou was the same followed by all the sect masters. This skeletal snake suddenly emerges from the explosion where Yun Che explode just now.
"ROOOARRRR!!!!!" The skeletal snake roar once more created a pressurized area and disperse all the smoke covering it. Once the smoke dissipates, everyone can finally see the man who was causing the tremendous whirlwind of energy. The young man looked at Wu Leng before saying things that was an alien to their ears.
"Hihio Zabimaru (Baboon King Zabimaru)"
The man was none other than Yun Che himself. His physique was still the same but what he was wearing shock them the most. Yun Che was still donned with his black outfit but his arms were covered with some kind of brown and thick fur. There's a skull of an animal on his left shoulder. But they couldn't believe their eyes seeing his right arm. His right arm was transformed into a beast's arm. What's worse, he was holding the tail bone of the beast itself as if he was holding it like a sword.
Little Fairy who was observing from the clouds was sent into disarray once more. Last time Yun Che activated his bankai, Little Fairy had been reacting to him. Right now, she was shocked and blus.h.i.+ng at the same time looking at his features.
"Yun Che, just…just…who in the world are you?" She said while holding the heart and looking at his handsome features. All the ladies including Cang Yue with the exception of Retsu was instantly swayed by Yun Che. His figure right now looked like he was a powerful beast G.o.d and that majestic skeletal snake completes it all. With his handsome face, he finally looked like the ideal prince they were looking for.
Yun Che's figure was surrounded by the giant skeletal snake. The snake looked creepy enough because it is one hundred perfect made from bones.
"This is AWESOME!!!!!" He suddenly shouted earning a confused gaze from the audience. This is the first time he activated Zabimaru's bankai. However, this is not her actual bankai. Yun Che categorized the bankai's usage in fights. If he faced larger opponents, he'll use Hihio Zabimaru. However, if situation allows him to fight multiple human cultivators. He will activate its True Bankai. Thinking about it makes him excited. Back to the arena, Yun Che felt awesome when his arm transformed into a baboon's arm and had its skull on his left shoulder.
"Heh, so this is the outside world, not too shabby." He could hear a tomboyish voice inside his mind. He knew this voice clearly.
"Saru? You're here?" Yun Che felt Saru's spirit in him.
"More like on your body, Master." Yun Che looked at the fur coat donned his body.
"Mouu, you're one to talk. Saru. Both of you and master are holding my tail. It's quite embarra.s.sing." Another cute and alluring voice sounded in his mind again. This time it came from the skeletal snake. Turns out, the one is in the snake was actually Hebi. The cute lamia spirit girl. Yun Che was shocked to hear the bada.s.s looking skeletal snake sounded just like a high school girl.
"At least I was able to hug and feel the master's body heat, Hebi. Ahh, such masculine feel." Saru said in his mind.
"Mouuu, It's not fair…. it's not fair… Why do I have to be the snake?" Hebi sounded as well.
"All right you two, you and your shenanigans again. Ehem, well girls. Welcome to real world. Where everything is f.u.c.ked up and try to kill you at the same time."
"Hmph, trying to gang up on our master. Let's see how they fair with us on his side." Saru'ss[irit was slowly getting excited.
"Hmmm, master. Once this is over, I demand an equal treatment."
"Hooo, Hebi started going offensive."
"Knock it off you two. *Sigh Fine, I won't resist and actions are limited to cuddling only. Understand?" Yun Che sighs. These two really did take advantage of everything around them.
"REALLY??!?!?! Let's blow this guy apart. Then." Saru and Hebi said at the same time. With that they immediately focus on the fight instead of talking to Yun Che.
Yun Che opened his eyes and looked at the shocked Wu Leng with a grin on his face. If the audience wanted to stunned themselves to kingdom comes, just let them. Saru and Hebi demand him to let them out to see the real world sometimes but he didn't find the great time to let them out. This is why he chose Zabimaru in the first place. So he can let them outside even for a bit and this guy was the perfect gopher to spar with them.
"You…who and what are you?" Wu Leng was shocked seeing that giant skeletal snake staring right at him. Even his rhino shows slight discomfort after seeing the snake.
"Who knows? I am not even sure myself." Yun Che casually said before swinging Hebi casually.
"Never expected you're actually a beast master as well. Even with that beast of yours, you cannot hope to win against my….."
"ROOOAARRR!!!!" Without waiting any longer, Yun Che swings his bankai towards Wu Leng's rhino. His practice with them enable him to control Zabimaru perfectly. Even though he looks like he swings its tail but he was actually controlling its movement just like Renji. However, he didn't made any unnecessary movement like Renji but he controlled Hebi to strike his target perfectly.
"You!!!" Wu Leng immediately avoided with his rhino the moment Yun Che sent Hebi's head towards him.
"Shut the f.u.c.k up. You keep chit chatting while I do the attacking." Yun
"What are you three standing around for? KILL HIM!!!" Wu Leng immediately ordered his pets to attack Yun Che but it wasn't long until Hebi swings by and hit the three beasts with its body.
With absolute precision, Yun Che swings Hebi towards the lizard first. That fireball of it cause him no harm but it was pretty annoying getting shot from long distance. He controlled Hebi to smash it with its head. That ramming speed of it can really harm an Emperor Profound Realm cultivator at full swing.
BOOM!!!!
"One down, three to go." He retracts Hebi back to his side once more. Since Hebi's bones was hard as stone. The three beasts had trouble breaking through to Yun Che's position.
"Dare to surround me? Why don't you three take a bite from her." He swings Hebi towards the nearest target, the gorilla. The gorilla immediately raised its hand to block Hebi's fangs but challenging Hebi's fang with brute strength is like asking for instant death. In an instant, Hebi closes its mouth and taking the gorilla with it.
SPLATTT
Blood splattered towards all direction as Hebi destroys the gorilla with one swift motion. The scene was quite brutal. However, without any delay. Yun Che swings her towards the eagle and the bear. One by one, all of them fell under Hebi's fangs. Either being smash or squished under its fangs.
"ROOOARRR!!!" Hebi roars towards the sky before facing Wu Leng and his rhino.
"Now, its just you and me." Yun Che said seriously facing Wu Leng in battle. Wu Leng gritted his teeth as he observe Yun Che and his beast. In his mind, various questions came to his mind about Yun Che's beast.
"Its not fair, why did he have a powerful beast beside him. He didn't even use his beast facing the other geniuses. Is he really that strong?" Wu Leng immediately ordered his giant rhino to attack Hebi and Yun Che easily block his rhino brute strength with her body. No wonder how strong it is, Hebi's body can reinforce itself with layer after layer of bones to fortify defenses. That rhino was big and strong but Hebi's bones was stronger.
"Hmph, when you offend me just now, consider yourself dead to to me." With that, he immediately swings Hebi towards Wu Leng once more but he didn't expect one thing. All of a sudden, the rhino's horn started to glow and....
BZZZTTTT!!!!
A beam of lightning suddenly came out from the horn and hit it square on Hebi's body. From the pressure of the attack, it is strong enough to destroy a peak Earth Profound Realm Cultivator. The force of the lightning was too strong and it immediately dismantle Hebi's body causing it fell to the ground and become motionless.
The sudden attack cause the audience to gap once more. They didn't expect a lightning shot out from a rhino and that lightning was strong enough to kill that snake.
"HAHAHA, in the end your beast are just bones. You cannot defeat a demon beast rhino with a bone." As he said that, he charged up another attack with its horn and slowly approaching Yun Che. He keep this attack as his last resort but didn't actually think the attack would work. For Yun Che, he didn't run or do anything. He just stand there with a small smile on his face.
"Any last words?" Wu Leng standing on top of his rhino high and mighty and mocked Yun Che for his weak beast. He put on a spectacular performance but in the end his beast was really weak.
"Sort of, have you ever heard of a Boa Constrictor snake?" He casually saying earning a confused glance from the audience.
"What kind of gibberish are you talking about? Be honored you are about to be killed by this tamer. Hahaha."
"Of course you didn't know? Silly me. Using a high word against you. Since you didn't understand. Let me demonstrate." All of a sudden, the bones around the arena started to glow with red energy starting to shock the audience once more. In an instant, it started to position itself all over the rhino before a string of red energy started to connect them. One by one, the bones rea.s.sembled back into the boned snake just now.
Wu Leng was shocked, That bone snake clearly died just now under his attack. He didn't expect that snake to rea.s.sembled back into that giant snake again. The a.s.sembled bones reformed back into the snake's body and started to squished his rhino. Wu Leng was thrown from its back and landed on the arena. He slowly stands and watched his rhino being squeezed by the snake.
"Boa constrictor snakes are non-venomous but they are larger in size. The largest boa was known as an anaconda. However, despite they are non venomous, they actually have muscles to choke their opponents to death." Yun Che explains while slowly increasing Hebi's squeeze towards the rhino. The rhino let out a dying roar as Hebi slowly chokes it to death.
"NO, NO. You let him go this instant or else...." Wu Leng looked at Yun Che with killing intent but as long as that snake is protecting him, there's no way for him to engage him in a one on one fight.
"Or else what?" Yun Che said continued to squeeze the rhino again.
"No..No..No... Let him go.. Please... Please... His my companion. Please... " Wu Leng started to fell to his knees begging for Yun Che to let the rhino go. Yun Che had the intent to kill but seeing Wu Leng's cries for pity earn a disgust glance from him. He slowly remove Hebi from the rhino and she returned back to him. Wu Leng immediately went back to his rhino and check on it.
"Hmph, never expected for you to beg. Get out of my sight." Yun Che turns around and all of a sudden. A lightning bolt suddenly being shot at him creating a giant mushroom smoke. Turns out, Wu Leng went back to feed his rhino with that pill from his master to make the rhino recover faster. He immediately have it charged its horn and fire a lightning bolt at Yun Che. This time, using all its strength.
His daring attack stunning the audience since he immediately attack Yun Che using a cowardly move. But he'll do whatever it takes to kill him.
"You, you offend this daddy long enough. Have as taste of...." It wasn't long the mushroom cloud completely dissipates and revealing the snake actually protecting Yun Che with its body. There was no scratch whatsoever on its body. It wasn't even blown away by the attack.
"How?"
"I let you go and this is how you treat me? I took pity of you when you said the rhino was your companion. In the end, you bite the hand that feed you? In that case, say h.e.l.lo to that b.a.s.t.a.r.d Wu Ya then." Yun Che was really p.i.s.sed. He took pity on his opponent without fearing he will be a loose end but he was attacked the moment he let it go.
"If you can fire a beam, then I can as well." He swings Hebi towards the rhino and bite the rhinos leg. With one swift motion, she dragged the rhino and Wu Leng along with her and tossed them towards the sky. With her body's strength, she easily tossed them despite the rhino's size.
"Hikotsu Taihō (Baboon Bone Cannon)!!!!" Yun Che yelled while channeling energy through Hebi's body. The energy traveled straight to her snake's mouth before she fire a large red beam of energy from her skull. The snake's skull suddenly open its mouth and fired the beam towards Wu Leng and his rhino.
"AAAAHHHHH" The beam hits the rhino and exploded taking him along with it. Wu Leng's final scream was heard as the energy exploded in mid-air. Thus, ending the fight with a bang.
BOOM!!!! The explosion vaporized Wu Leng and the rhino. The arena was silent again. Yun Che killed a Spirit Profound Realm cultivator with his beast. They were shocked again once they saw the snake able to fire a beam of energy so powerful it decimate the rhino along with Wu Leng. The New Moon Profound Palace disciples was shocked when Yun Che actually killed their senior brother. Despicable he might be but killing him off was way too much.
"You MURDERER!!!!" Yun Che turned his head as elder Wu Nie approach him. However, he wasn't alone. The rest of the seven sects suddenly jumped and landed on the arena causing the audience to be baffled. Cang Yue wanted to jump to them but he was hold back by Yuanba. He knew about the plan and he was here to stop her from doing something reckless. Since the fight was over, there was no longer playing nice. Retsu immediately flashed step to Yun Che's side.
"You murdered my grandson and now my DISCIPLE!!! I will kill you, I swear I will kill you." Elder Wu Nie shouted as he and the sect masters surrounded Yun Che and Retsu. This time, they really wanted to settle the score with him for humiliating them.
"You brat, we tolerate long enough for you to humiliate our disciples and cripple our sons. We, the seven sects will execute you two in the name of justice." Xiao Tiannan said with an angry look.
The rest of the sect masters surrounded Yun Che to prevent him from escape. However, they also need to be wary of that snake of his. If that snake use the same red beam to shot them, the results will be futile.
"After we deal with you, we will ask your palace for an explanation." Sect master Fen said to him because he was not able to wait to execute the plan they had.
When Yun Che heard that that, he suddenly laugh out loud causing them to look at him as if he was crazy.
"Explanation? Or more like ending them?" Yun Che said with a serious face.
"Brat, what nonsense are you talking about?" Sect master Fen was slightly discomfort when he heard the last part.
"Say, what about I show them instead?" Yun Che said while pulling something from his s.h.i.+hakushou. It was a profound imagery stone. This stone act as a replacement for cameras since this is the way this world records their activities. However the best part of this stone was it can project the recorded videos or images like a modern world projector. He asked some from Little Fairy a while back.
"Brat, what do you have in that imagery stone?" Sect master Fen asked him again.
"Oh nothing, some captured images from a disclosed location, lets say the mountain three weeks ago." When he said that, all the sect masters suddenly jolted from their places and looked at him with killing intent.
"So, you knew?" Xiao Tiannan looked at him as if he was like a prey ready to be devoured. This brat knows about their plan and he wasn't going to risk this brat telling the entire palace about their plan.
"Knew, see and heard. you old b.a.s.t.a.r.ds. That's why I crippled your disciples. I entered this palace so i can destroy you s.h.i.+theads one by one. In the end, you bring yourselves to me. Save me the trouble to going to your sect one by one." He spoke with confidence.
"You.... Then, we will silence you for it. Everyone, capture this brat so we can execute justice for murdering and crippling our disciples." Xiao Tiannan couldn't wait to dig secrets from Yun Che and Retsu. Both of them has things could spark greed from anyone who saw their fights. Especially, Yun Che's sword.
"Well, why don't we take this fight somewhere then. Chase us while you can." He said while nodding at Retsu. With that, Retsu immediately grasp her palm into a fist. Their words and action causes the sect masters to scrambled to action but the moment they get closer,
"Bakudo #21 Sekienton (Red Smoke Escape)" She said slowly and immediately opened her fist. Red smoke suddenly explode from it causing the sect masters to stop on their tracks. The smoke was too large and thick for them to get close. All of a sudden, they suddenly heard...
"ROOOOAAAARR!!!!!" The roar came from the snake but instead of escaping to different direction. It shot upwards towards the sky before halting on the top of the palace. When the sect masters and Wu Nie looked at the snake, they saw both Yun Che and Retsu were on top of its head and staring at them.
"HAHA, Syke.. Thinking that you could corner us like that? If you want this stone you have to take it from us then." With that, Yun Che swings Hebi to flew away from the palace. Since he can float in mid air, he can use Hebi as a transportation in mid air as well.
The sect masters all bore a different expression. They immediately scrambled all elders and themselves towards Yun Che's direction leaving the arena only with the palace's disciples. However, everyone turned their heads towards Qin Wuyou who still stand on the high stand of the arena. Initially he wanted to help them but he remembered Yun Che's final advice.
"Whatever happens, swear at the heavens that you will not come for US."
