Reigning Supreme in countless worlds With Beast taming-Chapter 113 - 111 s 30 Cold Stars
Chapter 113: 111 chapters 30 Cold Stars
Qin Feng had barely finished speaking when screams erupted again.
While they were talking, the battle had not ceased. The Ghost-Faced Spider swiftly crawled underground, seizing the moment when one cultivator was distracted by the Green Fox Illusion Technique to shoot a web that entangled the cultivator’s arm and magic artifact.
The spider’s silk not only contained fierce poison but also possessed extreme stickiness, making it difficult to remove through ordinary means.
However, this cultivator practiced a Fire Element Technique. Seeing that his arm and magic artifact were entangled by the spider’s silk, he quickly cast a Flame Spell, causing roaring fiery fire to surge over his arm and magic artifact, burning the spider silk to ashes.
But before he could feel relieved, a shadow flashed by and his body was pierced by the Swallowing Sky Toad’s long tongue.
The leading cultivator, realizing this young man would not let them go, hardened his heart with a deadly resolve.
...
Only by killing this young man would they have a chance to survive.
With a flip of his hand, he took out a second-tier Skyfire Talisman and activated it immediately, transforming it into a massive ball of fire that crashed towards Qin Feng.
The Swallowing Sky Toad, held in Qin Feng’s hand, spat out a stream of water, forming a wave of equal size that met the fire.
With a sizzle, the moment the water and fire collided, a large swath of mist burst forth.
Although the fire was cast from a second-tier Spirit Talisman, to be honest, the power sealed by the Talisman Maker in the Spirit Talisman was significantly less than that of a spell cast directly by a cultivator.
Moreover, this spirit fire had only one shot, while the Swallowing Sky Toad continuously spit out streams of water to counter it. Although initially at a disadvantage, the spirit fire’s force eventually diminished and naturally dissipated after a moment.
Qin Feng felt there was no need for him to clash head-on with the opponent, especially if that bandit cultivator produced a few more Spirit Talismans, which could threaten him.
Thus, he upheld the fine tradition of the Beast Taming Sect disciples used in combat—his figure flashed, and he swiftly retreated over thirty feet, distancing himself from the cultivators and letting his spiritual beasts confront the enemies.
At this moment, the Qi Refining Perfection bandit cultivator took out a two-foot-long pitch-black wooden box.
This was a treasure found in the treasure room of a small family clan they had plundered, named Thirty Cold Stars—an exceptional mechanical magical device capable of firing thirty small Armor-Breaking Cones resembling cold stars, turning the target into a sieve.
Mechanical magical devices were extremely rare in the Cultivation World and were immensely powerful; even a Foundation Establishment Cultivator caught off-guard and struck by the Thirty Cold Stars would have their defenses broken and meet a violent death.
Such devices were best manufactured by Central Region Mechanism City, and it was unknown how this one had ended up in the Southern Domain.
This mechanical magical device was also the reason these bandit cultivators dared to raid passing cultivators here; they had indeed ambushed a Foundation Establishment Cultivator with it before.
However, just as this bandit cultivator aimed the wooden box at Qin Feng and looked up, he saw that Qin Feng had distanced himself so far away, which nearly made him spit up blood in frustration.
“Boy, if you have the guts, don’t run away. If you’re a man, come and fight me!”
The cultivator swept his sword, knocking a Giant Crocodile that had pounced towards him flying, and bellowed at Qin Feng.
Qin Feng had been on guard the moment the other took out the wooden box, and hearing his words now, he immediately knew that the wooden box was definitely a lethal weapon, otherwise this guy wouldn’t have been so infuriated.
Thus, far from advancing, he even more sincerely retreated a few more feet, giving the bandit no chance to strike at him.
After all, with two of their men already down, the remaining three were definitely no match for his spiritual beasts; there was no need for him to personally risk himself any further.
True enough, under the fierce assault of a few spiritual beasts, the situation of the bandit cultivators quickly became precarious.
Especially the Ruyi Golden Snake, swift as lightning, darting around and raiding near them. Despite these cultivators defending with all their might, they could hardly withstand the Ruyi Golden Snake’s attacks. In just a few breaths, another was breached by the golden light on its body, almost having an arm severed by its wings.
Mainly because this small snake was not only fast, but its defense was so strong it left them feeling hopeless. No matter what they tried, they couldn’t injure the Ruyi Golden Snake in the slightest, and instead, their magic artifacts were even bitten a few times by the Ruyi Golden Snake.

This, indeed, terrified them.
It seemed that the Beast Taming Sect’s cultivators were not ones that these background-less loose cultivators could afford to provoke.
The Ruyi Golden Snake didn’t care about what they thought. Suddenly, its body burst with golden light, casting the Ruyi Golden Light on its wings, which flapped like two scythes horizontally slashing, directly beheading one of the bandit cultivators.
On another front, the Green Fox, having been ambushed and injured, was furious and recklessly used its Illusion Technique to forcefully drag another bandit cultivator into an Illusion Realm, then pounced, clawing the cultivator’s face.
The man screamed as his face split open, blood covering his features, barely avoiding having his skull cracked open by the Green Fox.
But just as he struggled free from the pain and the illusion, before he could retaliate, he was entangled by the spider silk from the Ghost-Faced Spider, which then – moving on its eight long legs – pounced forward, its legs like spears, directly piercing through the cultivator’s chest.
From the start of the battle until now, it had only been a brief moment, yet four out of five bandit cultivators had been killed.
The last remaining Qi Refining Perfection bandit cultivator, seeing all spiritual beasts about to advance upon him, knew he certainly couldn’t survive alone.
With a roar, ignoring the incoming Ruyi Golden Snake, he dodged only the vital parts, letting the sharp wings of the Ruyi Golden Snake slice a fine, long wound on his body. Then, stepping on the head of the charging Giant Crocodile, he leaped forward, rapidly closing the distance to Qin Feng while raising the mechanical wooden box.
Although the power of the Thirty Cold Stars was formidable, capable of breaking through a Foundation Establishment Cultivator’s defense, being a magic artifact, its attack range was limited, and its power decreased with distance, which was why he desperately dashed forward, planning to get closer to Qin Feng before pressing the trigger.
Qin Feng saw this and immediately knew what the fellow was planning. Without a second thought, he kicked the ground and rapidly retreated backward, at the same time ordering the Ruyi Golden Snake to increase its attack speed.
As for the Green Fox Ghost Face Spider and the Giant Crocodile, he had already given up on them. Those spiritual beasts were relatively ordinary and simply couldn’t be of any use at this critical moment.
“Qua…”
The Swallowing Sky Toad spat out a sharp Cold Ice Arrow, aiming it at the cultivator’s body.
Pff!
The cultivator didn’t dodge or evade. Even though the Cold Ice Arrow pierced his abdomen, bringing up a spray of blood, his figure didn’t pause at all.
However, he had already felt the relentless sharpness brought by the Ruyi Golden Snake behind him and knew that there was no chance to close any more distance, so he suddenly pressed down on a mechanism.
The wooden box made a clacking sound and then suddenly changed shape. Numerous tiny holes appeared on the body of the box, and from each hole a cold star shot out, tracing beautiful arcs in the air, aiming for Qin Feng.
In an instant, Qin Feng felt his hair stand on end, and a strong sense of crisis surged in his heart.
He pushed his True Yuan to its limit, rapidly retreating backwards, his True Yuan gushing crazily outward, forming a defensive spell around him.
At the same time, he took out several defensive talismans from his storage bag and activated all of them to protect himself.
Bang, bang, bang…
Eventually, the thirty cold stars still caught up to his figure, breaking through several defenses.
Fortunately, Qin Feng had retreated quite a distance from the start. When the cultivator pursued him, Qin Feng cleverly retreated again so that by the time the thirty cold stars reached him, their power had greatly diminished.
However, these Armor-Breaking Cones, which contained a penetrating force, didn’t strike him at the same time. There were slight differences in their sequence, allowing them to pierce through his multiple layers of defensive spells, flashing with cold light.
Though only three or five were left in the end, Qin Feng still got quite a scare.
Two of them were aimed directly at his head.
Fortunately, the Swallowing Sky Toad sensed his thoughts and quickly leaped in front of him, opening its mouth wider than its body, and forcefully swallowed those two Armor-Breaking Cones.
Pfft, pfft, pfft!
The remaining three pierced into Qin Feng’s body, although they didn’t hit any vital points. Even though he was injured, they weren’t severe.
Even so, it badly frightened Qin Feng, with his heart pounding furiously, taking a good while to calm down.
In that moment, he truly felt the threat of death.
He had never expected the bandit cultivator to possess such a powerful magic artifact.
It seemed, he lacked not just a riding tool but also a powerful defensive spiritual beast.
He decided that he definitely needed to find an opportunity to subdue a few spiritual beasts with strong defensive capabilities in the future, otherwise, he felt he lacked a sense of security.
Also, he’d better refine the Ruyi Golden Snake soon. As long as he could cultivate to the point of merging with his lifebound spiritual beast, with the defensive power of the Ruyi Golden Snake, he could directly ignore the attacks of most cultivators of the same level.
Ahead, the cultivator seeing that Qin Feng hadn’t been severely injured or killed, couldn’t hide the disappointment in his eyes.
He felt a strong sense of unwillingness and wanted to kill Qin Feng again, even if it meant taking Qin Feng down with him as he died.
Unfortunately, he had no chance left.
The Ruyi Golden Snake had already flown in front of him, swiftly circling him three times with its sharp gold wings flashing intense golden light, chopping his body into several segments. He was as dead as could be.
Qin Feng steadied his spirit, settled his emotions, and then pulled out the few half-inch Armor-Breaking Cones from his wounds.
These items, capable of breaking defenses and laws, were truly not to be underestimated.
Seeing the Ruyi Golden Snake approaching, about to nibble on the Armor-Breaking Cones on the ground, Qin Feng quickly stopped it. He not only picked up all the cones that had fallen to the ground but also had the Swallowing Sky Toad spit out the two it had swallowed earlier.
Then he stepped forward, picked up the wooden box the cultivator had been using, and examined it carefully for a few moments.
The biggest advantage of this type of mechanical magical device was that it didn’t require much True Yuan to use. If he suddenly used it when his mana was depleted, it would definitely catch an opponent off guard.
He didn’t look further, quickly storing these objects in his storage bag.
Chaotic Sky Valley wasn’t a place to linger long. The fight had taken place here, and it wouldn’t be long before other cultivators nearby came to investigate.
Currently, with injuries, he didn’t want to invite further trouble, so he quickly gathered the spoils of war and left immediately.
