Nine Revolutions Star Transformation-Chapter 686 - 706: Slaying the Nether Beast

"Just trust me, although these Nether Beasts aren't very strong, they can attract more powerful ones. Do you think I don't want to kill these Nether Beasts? Often, curiosity can be fatal. Let's move quickly! We need to get out of here as soon as possible!" Chu Linfeng said helplessly.

Lin Ruoxi immediately returned to Chu Linfeng's side and said to Young Master Feiyu and Ouyang Hong, "Let's leave first, we'll talk once we're truly safe. It's dangerous here at any moment, we can't let Lin Feng worry about us."

Young Master Feiyu and Ouyang Hong nodded reluctantly and were about to take to the skies when the Nether Beasts suddenly began howling into the heavens. Piercing sounds echoed across the dark red grassland, causing Chu Linfeng's heart to skip a beat as he exclaimed, "This isn't good, these guys have realized we're trying to escape and are calling more formidable Nether Beasts!"

"Seriously? Even you know about this? These creatures can't fly, so there's nothing to be afraid of, right? As long as we fly, we'll be safe," Ouyang Hong remarked.

"Trouble's coming. I hope this won't create too much of a commotion; otherwise, the Netherworld might really become uninhabitable," Chu Linfeng remarked helplessly.

Suddenly, several figures appeared in the sky, instantly materializing before Chu Linfeng and his companions. "These are all Nether Beasts in disguise. Actually, the Netherworld's Nether Beasts are quite like the Magical Beasts of Canglan Ancient Land; both can transform. Be cautious."

"You pitiful humans dare set foot on Dongping Grassland? Don't you know this is our Beast King's territory? Our Beast King has a long-standing agreement with your Human Race's strongest, Xiang Shaolong: no one may enter here without his decree, or face death. Will you end it yourselves, or should we do it for you?" a middle-aged man said.

Seeing these newcomers, Chu Linfeng was taken aback. Five people had appeared, one of whom was a woman—a very enchanting one at that. If she were in Canglan Ancient Land, she could charm countless young men, but to Chu Linfeng, she held no attraction; his tastes had long been refined by beauties.

However, he wasn't sure about Ouyang Hong and Young Master Feiyu; their eyes seemed fixed on her as if they could see right through her clothes, an admittedly lewd sight.

"We entered here unintentionally, and we've shown no disrespect to your Nether Beasts. We humbly ask you let us leave!" Chu Linfeng said politely, uttering words against his own will. If he had been alone entering the Netherworld, he wouldn't have bothered, and would easily have slain them.

But now he couldn't act so rashly with Lin Ruoxi and the others around; he had to consider their safety, making Chu Linfeng quite speechless.

"Hehe, you're quite the handsome lad. How about coming back to Beast King City with me? I'll make sure you're taken care of," the woman's voice was somewhat seductive, leaving an uncomfortable impression.

"We appreciate the offer, sister, but please let us leave. We didn't come here intentionally, and hope you can understand," Chu Linfeng insisted.

"Boy, you talk too much. If you won't start, then let this Protector help you!" said a middle-aged man with a full beard, clad in a purple robe.

"Lin Feng, it seems we can't resolve this peacefully. Do you have any plans?" Lin Ruoxi whispered to Chu Linfeng.

"If we can't avoid it, then fight. These five aren't very strong, probably at the Fifth Layer of Saint Martial Realm, only that so-called Protector is at the Sixth. You all just need to protect yourselves; let me handle the Protector first." Chu Linfeng instructed.

Young Master Feiyu and Ouyang Hong heard Chu Linfeng's words. After exchanging glances, the four of them swiftly moved to launch a preemptive attack on the five.

Chu Linfeng, needing to quickly deal with the Protector, immediately unleashed a massive Celestial Slash. These Nether Beasts, shaped like humans, had unknown defensive power, so he attacked quickly.

Seeing Chu Linfeng and his friends launching their attack, the Protector shouted angrily, "You humans are audacious to act so insolently before me! You're courting death! I'll show you our power today!"

He spoke while swinging a Wolf Fang Club towards them swiftly. However, Chu Linfeng's Celestial Slash reached him almost instantaneously, too fast for him to react.

The Celestial Slash could cut down even Seventh Layer human experts, let alone a mere Sixth Layer Nether Beast. The display of Celestial Slash was as if to tear open the heavens, causing the surrounding space to tremble, rendering the wolf-like Nether Beasts prostrate.

"Bang!" A loud crash was heard as Chu Linfeng's Cyan Frost Sword struck the Protector's Wolf Fang Club, shattering it and landing on him.

It naturally ended with him beheaded in an instant, a fact the Protector couldn't believe even in death.

Meanwhile, in Beast King City, a middle-aged man in white robes with a crown frowned as he glanced towards the distant sky, muttering, "Who would've thought a new powerhouse would emerge in the Netherworld? Quite peculiar!"

After slaying the Protector, Chu Linfeng didn't pause, his Cyan Frost Sword unleashed an Earth Slash on a Nether Beast battling Lin Ruoxi. Although the blow didn't kill him, it came close.

Chu Linfeng left an impression of speed and powerful attack in the hearts of all. The remaining few, seeing the Protector quickly slain by this youth, were immediately inclined to retreat. One of them quickly reverted to beast form and spewed black smoke, turning the area into pitch darkness.

Knowing these guys wanted to escape, Chu Linfeng used Instant Teleportation to dash out. Sure enough, he saw the remaining three fleeing in different directions, but he didn't worry; back when dealing with the Blood Alliance, he'd handled fleeing Alliance Leaders similarly.

Teleporting swiftly, he caught up with one. Using Soul Slash to traumatize their soul, then following with an Earth Slash, he claimed their life.

Appearing silently behind them, Soul Slash had no energy fluctuations, evading detection. In less than half an incense stick's time, Chu Linfeng had slain all three in flight.

However, while dealing with the woman, Chu Linfeng found himself in a somewhat awkward situation. After injuring her soul, she immediately pleaded, "Dear young man, please spare me. I mean you no harm. I said I'd take you to Beast King City; if you let me go, I'll do anything for you."
