Chapter 81: The Might of the Divine Beast
“Roar!”
As the long sword was about to slash at Tan Yun's neck, an earth-shattering roar resonated through the cave dwelling, and a beam of golden light erupted from Tan Yun's collar!
“Crack!”
The golden dragon spirit lion's right wing, like an indomitable bolt of golden lightning, instantly severed the Medium-grade magical artifact Flying Sword that was aimed at Tan Yun!
“Ah… what the hell is this thing…” Pang Shiyuan, seeing the magical artifact Flying Sword split in two, screamed in horror as he only caught a glimpse of a golden light passing right before his eyes. Immediately, he felt a sharp pain in his right wrist that was holding the broken sword!
“No!”
As he looked down, he saw his right hand, which was holding the broken sword, flying away from his grip, streams of blood gushing out from his severed wrist!
“Roar!”
The golden dragon spirit lion, no bigger than a sparrow, flapped its wings and hovered in front of Tan Yun, its eyes radiating a chilling and ferocious gaze, staring at Pang Shiyuan while letting out a deafening roar!
Tan Yun remained seated on the jade chair, not blinking even once. He looked at Pang Shiyuan, who was filled with terror, and his gaze still revealed a cruel intent.
Pang Shiyuan looked at the tiny golden demon lion in front of him, feeling the beastly aura of its third stage growth. Coupled with the speed at which the demon lion had just severed his hand, he felt a deep sense of despair!
That speed was at least three times faster than himself!
At that speed, he simply had no time to unleash his strongest technique!
Indeed, the speed of the golden dragon spirit lion was comparable to that of a cultivator at the great perfection of the refining soul realm!
Pang Shiyuan, who was at the sixth layer of the refining soul realm, now felt as if he was facing an enemy at the great perfection of the refining soul realm!
And it had the ability to instantly sever his Medium-grade magical artifact!
“Old thing, run! Let’s see if you can escape from the cave dwelling at your speed!” Tan Yun said ominously.
“Tan… Tan Yun…” Pang Shiyuan was petrified under the gaze of the golden dragon spirit lion and trembled as he said, “Please spare me! After all, you're not dead, right? As long as you spare me, I’ll give you whatever you want!”
“Big guy, break one of his legs!” Tan Yun coldly snorted, and the golden dragon spirit lion instantly vanished. All that was seen was a streak of golden light accompanied by a spray of blood that swept across Pang Shiyuan's right knee. In the next moment, it transformed back into a one-foot-tall golden dragon spirit lion, hovering in front of Tan Yun.
At this moment, Pang Shiyuan's severed leg dropped to the ground.
The speed of the golden dragon spirit lion had terrified Pang Shiyuan to the extreme!
He truly wanted to flee!
But he couldn't escape!
He simply had no ability to attack while trying to escape!
“Ah…”
A scream reverberated in the vast cave dwelling as Pang Shiyuan stood like a golden rooster in the cave, looking at Tan Yun with pleading eyes. “Tan Yun, I beg you, spare me! As long as you spare me, I’ll tell you who the mastermind is… I beg you!”
Tan Yun's eyes were filled with a bloodthirsty glow, “The long night is endless, and I have time to play with you. Since you are begging me, you should know how to plead. Get down on your knees!”
“Okay, okay, I’ll kneel…” Pang Shiyuan bent his left leg and was about to kneel when suddenly, a surge of spiritual power erupted from his body, and he rapidly leaped backward towards the cave dwelling's exit!
At the same time, a Top-grade magical artifact Spirit Vessel flashed out from the Qiankun Ring, expanding to a size of thirty feet.
“Whoosh!”
In perfect coordination, Pang Shiyuan jumped onto the spirit vessel, hastily maneuvering it to speed out of the cave dwelling while shouting, “Help! Tan Yun wants to kill me!”
Pang Shiyuan's thoughts were simple; with the speed of the spirit vessel, by the time he shouted, he would have already escaped the cave, and his cries for help would echo for miles around!
