Infinite Professions-Chapter 67 - 62: Fighting

"Boom!"

Even though the Beast Fighting Arena was vast enough, the spectacle of two hundred-meter-tall beasts battling was still incredibly awe-inspiring. The earth roared, and the ten directions were shaken.

"No wonder they’re Celestial Destiny Spirit Masters!"

"The Magma Monarch is a Fire and Earth Dual-attribute Elemental Spirit Beast and, despite only being Tier Four, it can contend against a Tier Five Spirit Beast due to a series of Spirit Control Secret Techniques."

"That Earth Monarch is even more terrifying. Clearly a Sand Beast, yet it evolved into a Tier Four King Species. Now, with its flesh and blood body and no Spirit Control Secret Technique enhancement, it’s hard-pressing the Magma Monarch’s Magma Body and even suppressing it."

"Its teeth and organs can chew on the Magma Monarch’s Magma Body, swallowing rock and lava without harm, and even seems to absorb the opponent’s power."

"What combat skill did Li Qingshan have that Sand Beast learn..."

Watching the two battling monarchs with all their might, the crowd’s hearts surged with excitement.

But soon, this enthusiasm cooled down, gradually turning into boredom.

Because they realized these two Earth Attribute King Beasts were incredibly resistant, even the Magma Monarch, constantly suppressed, could continually absorb the Power of the Earth to heal itself, regenerating its Magma Body again and again.

The Earth Monarch did no more than cause surface damage, proving inconsequential for the Magma Monarch. It could not suppress the opponent in terms of Primordial Spirit control to deprive it of its Earth Power.

Thus, the battle entered a heated stalemate, with both King Beasts fiercely fighting but unable to determine a winner, merely exhausting each other intensely yet slowly.

"How long is this fight going to go on?"

"Earth Attribute Spirit Beasts are inherently resistant, let alone these two King Beasts?"

"With their endurance, they could probably fight for three days and three nights."

"Hmph, not necessarily. While common Spirit Control Masters might need three days and nights to determine a winner, these aren’t ordinary Spirit Control Masters. Especially Dongfang Bai, as the Young Master of the Dongfang Clan, a former Celestial Destiny Spirit Master, he has more than just one Magma Monarch."

"As for Li Qingshan, no, Li Taiyi might also be a former Celestial Destiny Spirit Master, but his Celestial Spirit Beast has died, and without family support, relying solely on his twenty years of accumulation in the Sand Beast Valley, how many Monarchs can he raise?"

"From cultivating the Sand Beast to the current Earth Monarch, it probably drained all his efforts, right?"

"Not necessarily. He might have another hidden Spirit Beast. It was said to have killed Ghost Wolf Master Guu Yunxiao back in the day."

"That still doesn’t change things. Dongfang Bai has more than one Monarch, and not just Monarchs. That Earth Dragon Beast..."

As they watched the two fierce but stalemated King Beasts, the crowd’s eyes once again turned to Shen Hex and Dongfang Bai, anticipating their further displays.

"Taiyi, be careful!"

Dongfang Bai acted decisively; seeing the Magma Monarch unable to defeat its opponent, he straightforwardly released a third Spirit Beast.

"Bang!"

Only to see a burst of Spirit Light, a figure shot out, different from the two immense monarchs—an ordinary-sized, even slightly smallish, silver silhouette.

Though the figure was small, its speed was incredible, transforming into a silver light that pierced through space, charging straight towards Shen Hex behind the Earth Monarch.

Yet, on Shen Hex, a golden light exploded, and a human-like figure leapt out, radiating a dazzling golden light, resembling a Holy Spirit forged from gold, colliding with the charging silver light.

"Bang!!!"

A loud clash echoed, metallic and clanging, causing ripples in the void.

Within the scattering waves, a gold and a silver light intertwined fiercely, enclosing two human-like figures grappling with crossed arms.

The people watched keenly, seeing within the silver light a humanoid form of iron and steel, with a head, limbs, and torso, but lacking facial features, its head a smooth mirror-like surface, entirely silver-white, flickering with a cold metallic sheen.

"This is..."

"Tier Four King Species, Metal Fighting Spiritual Beast—the Platinum King!"

"The second King Spirit Beast!"

Recognizing the origin of the steel form within the silver light, someone exclaimed in surprise.

But more eyes were fixed on the golden light.

That golden light was dazzling to the extreme, like a blazing sun, almost condensed into liquid.

Within the golden light, a faint humanoid silhouette was visible, with a head, limbs, and torso similar to a human’s, but unlike the smooth form of the Platinum King, it was covered with dense fur, with a long tail faintly revealing its identity.

"This is...!?"

Dongfang Bai’s eyes narrowed, immediately channeling Spirit Control Power to probe the mysterious Spirit Beast.

Vajra Battle Ape

Spirit Beast Rank: Spirit Level (King Species)

Spirit Beast Species: Ape Type (Combat-type)

Spirit Beast Combat Skills: Dragon-Slaying Tiger-Subduing, Vajra Indestructible, Celestial Spirit Returning to Truth, Arrogant Dragon Without Regret...

Though the final Spirit Beast combat skills were unclear, the Spirit Level King Species rank was enough to demonstrate its prowess, a Tier Four Monarch.

Dongfang Bai’s eyes sharpened, looking at Shen Hex in the rear: "I didn’t expect you to have a second Monarch, I underestimated you, Taiyi!"

Shen Hex remained aloof and silent, not responding at all.

Feeling rebuffed, Dongfang Bai spoke no more, immediately urging his Spiritual Thought to enhance the Platinum King’s assault.

"Bang!!!"

With Dongfang Bai’s Spiritual Thought pushing, the Platinum King’s silver light surged, surrounding it like a silver War God, an iron warrior, its physical power greatly increased, attempting to suppress the Vajra Battle Ape within the golden light.

As one of the Three Great Kingdoms of Spirit Control, the Earth Kingdom was blessed by natural advantages, purportedly containing several massive Earth Spirit Veins, which resulted in the abundant production of various Earth Attribute Spirit Beasts and Dual-attribute ones like the previously seen Magma Monarch.

However, the Platinum King was a pure Metal Spirit Beast, discovered by Dongfang Bai using the power of the Earth Dragon Beast, deep within the Earth Core, born with the Magma Monarch in the volcanic fires of the Earth Core, forged over millennia by the Earth’s Core Fire without melting, ultimately becoming a King Spirit Beast.

Dongfang Bai had high hopes for it, not only investing plenty of Spiritual Objects for its cultivation but also acquiring Fighting Type Combat Skills from various sources, aiming to forge it into a King of Combat. 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝙬𝙚𝓫𝒏𝓸𝓿𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝙤𝓶

It did not disappoint, with a startling talent for combat, capable of defeating the Magma Monarch head-on by penetrating its Magma Heart, its combat prowess was terrifying.

But...

"Bang bang bang bang bang!"

The Platinum King’s body erupted, fists raining down like a barrage of silver light, unleashing thousands of strikes within an instant, aiming to crush its opponent to dust and ashes.

However, the opponent did not flinch, likewise countering with its own barrage of fists, the blazing golden light fiercely suppressing the silver light, the flesh and blood body colliding directly with the Platinum King’s steel form in deafening blasts that sent sparks flying.

Such fierce striking, in just a moment, revealed a gap in the silver light, as the golden light managed to strike a breach. The Vajra Battle Ape seized the opportunity, delivering a powerful punch, its Martial Dao True Essence raging, crashing heavily onto the Platinum King’s chest.

"Bang!!!"

A thunderous bang echoed, clanging with resonance as the Platinum King’s silver light scattered, crashing into the other battlefield, slamming into the Magma Monarch, further worsening its disadvantaged position, with the Earth Monarch pouncing on its head, fiercely gnawing on its lava skull.
