Supreme Emperor of Swords-Novel

Chapter 734 The Third Kind of Power—Beast Power

“Under normal circumstances, if we were to fight to this extent, I would have already admitted defeat. Your strength is truly greater than mine, but this time, it won’t do. I’ll force my way over to protect Her Ladyship. Brat, you gotta brace yourself. Because I’m going to take this seriously,” Arnold the giant warned.

The next moment, his colossal body suddenly began to shake gently, and then a series of thunderous sounds came out of his body.

He raised his left arm, held his left arm with his right hand as large as a cattail leaf fan, and shouted softly, “Tiger!”

“Roar!”

The roar of an ancient giant tiger rang out in the void without warning.

From Arnold’s left arm, a brutal and fierce aura spread in all directions.

In a split second, something strange happened—

A palm-sized dark blue tattoo on his left arm flickered brightly. Then, a fierce tiger as scarlet as fire jumped out from that tattoo. At first, it was only the size of a palm, but the moment it landed on the ground, it turned into a about five-meter-long saber-toothed tiger. It was wrapped in scarlet light, emitting intense heat. It let out a low roar in its throat and advanced on Ding Hao step by step.

“What kind of magic power is this?” Ding Hao asked in surprise.

At first, he only found Arnold’s dark green tattoo a little weird, but he never expected it to have this kind of function.

The strength of this scarlet flaming saber-toothed tiger in front of him was by no means inferior to that of Arnold himself.

According to legends, the flaming saber-toothed tiger was a giant beast that only existed in the ancient Untainted Land. It was also one of the overlords of ancient times. It was extremely fierce and could command primitive flames. Today, as the tides of heaven and earth had changed, this kind of terrifying beast had become extinct and completely disappeared from the world. Thus, it was kind of incredible that Arnold actually summoned one here.

“Roar!”

The scarlet flaming saber-toothed tiger threw back its head and growled. An intimidating aura fanned out, and the pressure that was so dense as to seem substantial permeated the field. The demeanor of the king of all beasts had been completely displayed.

A ball of flame shot out of its mouth.

The power of the flame was extremely dreadful. Even a Martial King Realm expert would probably be burned into a pile of green ash in the face of such kind of flame.

Ding Hao threw out a punch and directly smashed the ball of flame.

Since He had the Bi Fang’s Fire in his body, and he had been cultivating the power with fire property, of course, he was not afraid of this kind of flame.

The moment the ball of flame was shattered, the scarlet saber-toothed tiger dashed forward like a bolt of fiery lightning and streaked across the void. In a second, it was already near Ding Hao. The giant tiger pounced on him, its bulky body bearing down on him.

Ding Hao roared and moved forward instead of retreating. In the nick of time, he dodged the attack and came to stand behind the saber-toothed tiger.

“Swoosh!”

The huge tiger tail swept at him like an iron stick.

Ding Hao took a gliding step and grabbed the tiger’s tail with a flick of his hands. Unleashing his strength in his arms, he gave a roar and directly towed the giant saber-toothed tiger back. He then twirled it round once before tossing it out.

“Bang!”

The giant flaming saber-toothed tiger hit the crystal wall next to the white stone pillars. It bounced back and fell to the ground, feeling lightheaded. It then wobbly stood up and shook its head in a daze. Even so, it was not injured. In no time, it rushed toward Ding Hao growling fiercely again.

Ding Hao decided not to go easy on it this time. He unleashed all his physical strength and soon hurled the tiger out again.

“Dragon!” Arnold, who was on the side, once again shouted angrily.

On his back, a large dark cyan tattoo was blooming. A dragon roar resounded between heaven and earth. With a flash of black light, a black dragon flew out of his body. In an instant, it turned into a huge dragon as thick as a bucket and darted toward Ding Hao like a flash of black lightning.

“Good Lord!”

Ding Hao was taken aback.

That tattoo was truly terrifying. He was surprised to see that Arnold could even summon a black dragon with it.

He had never heard of any sect that had the magical power of using tattoos to summon the behemoths in ancient myths to fight for them.

Moreover, this giant-like beefy man was covered with absurd dark cyan tattoos. If all of his tattoos were like this, wouldn’t he be able to summon endless behemoths that only existed in myths and legends to fight for him? If he could summon the legendary Divine Four Beasts, he would be practically invincible.

The black dragon swung its tail, which whacked Ding Hao’s back, sending him flying.

“Its strength is at the same level as Arnold’s.” Ding Hao snorted. The moment he landed on the ground, he leaped to the air at once and ducked the attack of the flaming saber-toothed tiger.

Ding Hao had cottoned on to the situation now. The strength of the giant beasts that Arnold had summoned seemed to have been subject to Arnold’s strength. The giant beasts could be not stronger than this giant. They did not really have the power of the ancient beasts described in myths and legends. Otherwise, with Ding Hao’s strength, he could not have been able to fight against these giant beasts at all.

Ding Hao’s figure darted here and there like a flash as he locked horns with the two giant beasts.

“Bear!”

Seeing that the two giant beasts could not defeat Ding Hao, Arnold bawled again, and a ball of orange light flew out of his right arm. The moment it touched the ground, it transformed into a giant yellow bear more than six meters tall.

The giant bear roared and stood on its hind legs. Then, it thumped its front paws on the ground.

“Rumble!”

The hard floor on which the white stone pillars stood suddenly rippled as if it were just water.

Having been caught off guard, Ding Hao sensed a huge force coming from under his feet, which directly sent him flying and made him lose his balance for a moment.

“Wham, wham!”

The dragon’s tail and the tiger’s tail hit Ding Hao almost at the same time.

Ding Hao let out a muffled groan as he slammed hard into the crystal wall, blood trickling down from the corner of his mouth.

“It’s the Continent Bear, another legendary ancient behemoth.” Ding Hao’s pupils contracted. The strength of this Arnold was far beyond his imagination. His magical power of summoning giant beasts with tattoos was more formidable than he had expected.

The next moment—

“Kaboom!”

The black flame breathed by the black dragon and the ball of flame fired by the flaming saber-toothed tiger landed on Ding Hao almost simultaneously, burning his figure into pieces.

Yet, the figure they hit was just one of the series of shadows left by Ding Hao when moving rapidly.

At the same time, Ding Hao appeared somewhere far behind them.

There was a strange longbow in his hand. He drew the bow to the fullest, which looked like a full moon. A big scarlet Vermilion Bird Arrow slowly took shape.

A terrible murderous aura spread out from Ding Hao.

“Roar!” The flaming saber-toothed tiger leaped zigzaggedly and quickly approached Ding Hao. The black dragon was also swimming in the air at a high speed. The Earth Bear had stood on its hind legs again, poised to launch a second round of attack.

The three divine beasts cooperated smoothly.

Ding Hao stayed where he was.

Just as the flaming saber-toothed tiger jumped in front of him, a beam of light flashed across his eyes, and he suddenly loosened the bowstring.

“Hoot!”

In the lingering yell of the Vermilion Bird, the giant flaming bird darted out and hit the flaming saber-toothed tiger.

“Kaboom!”

Sparks flew in all directions, as though flames were falling from the heavens.

The flaming Vermillion Bird and the flaming saber-toothed tiger ended up in ruin together.

Ding Hao’s figure flashed, and in the next moment, he had already come to the void, narrowly escaping from the second shock wave launched by the Earth Bear. The Divine Four Guardians Bow was drawn to the fullest again. But this time, the arrow was shaped like a huge green dragon. The dragon bared its sharp fangs, and it was aimed at the black dragon that was charging at him from a distance.

“Swoosh!”

“Kaboom!”

The sound of the big arrow breaking through the air and the sound of the energy explosion sounded almost at the same time.

The black dragon was blasted into pieces and perished together with the cyan dragon arrow.

In the distance, the face of Arnold the giant paled greatly. He suddenly raised his head and cried out, “Wasp!”

“Buzz, buzz, buzz, buzz!”

There were even dark cyan tattoos on his tongue!

With the strange sound, a cluster of black creatures constantly zoomed out from his tongue. His mouth was like a bottomless abyss, from which thumb-sized black balls of light kept flying out.

Ding Hao’s pupils suddenly shrank, and he immediately stepped back to put some distance between him and Arnold.

The black light spots were actually thumb-sized poisonous black wasps. Apparently, they were also a kind of fearful species that used to live in the Untainted Land. Their bodies were covered with thin and dense scales, and their faces were extremely ferocious. Each of those wasps had six wings, and a black poisonous sting on the butt that flickered with dim light and constantly shrank and expanded, releasing an odd and enchanting light.

“Those are...”

Although Ding Hao could not recognize the black poisonous wasps, he instinctively smelled the danger.

These little things were even more terrifying than the flaming saber-toothed tiger and the black dragon.

“The Vermilion Bird Divine Arrow!” Ding Hao grasped the bow with his left hand and rapidly plucked the bowstring as if playing the pipa, turning the bowstring into a blur. With a series of wild buzzing sounds generated by the vibrating bowstring, hundreds of arrows were shot out in an instant.

Each arrow was an illusion of a flaming Vermillion Bird.

“Hoot!”

The howls of the Vermilion Birds resonated through the sky.

In an instant, almost the entire space above the Holy War Arena was filled with fiery flames. A burst of rapid cracking sounds was heard. As it turned out, the black poisonous wasps summoned by Arnold the giant had been burnt and blasted into ashes by the fire cast by the Vermilion Birds!

Ding Hao had shot hundreds of arrows in one breath. Although he didn’t need to aim to hit the target, shooting so many arrows at a time almost consumed two-thirds of Ding Hao’s Bi Fang’s Fire.

The flames dissipated.

All the black wasps in the sky were burned to death.

Fortunately, Ding Hao had a weapon like the Divine Four Guardians Bow at hand, which gave a full play of the power of the Bi Fang’s Fire inside him. Otherwise, it would have taken him a lot of effort to deal with the black wasps that could get in by every opening.

“Bravo. I never knew that you, a toy boy, could be so powerful. Now, get ready to take my ultimate strike!” After a momentary shock, Arnold the giant laughed out loud. While he ran his strength, all the dark cyan tattoos on his body started to glisten with strange dark black light. Look blood vessels, the beams of light kept going up and gathering on his bald head.

A palm-sized tattoo on the top of his head suddenly released a glaring black light.

This was the most complicated and bizarre tattoo he had. It was unbelievably exquisite. Tens of thousands of dense lines had crisscrossed in the palm-sized area. With the urge of the giant, a terrifying and awe-inspiring aura slowly spread out.

Ding Hao’s heart thudded.

The intuition of the Mind Essential told him that the creature that Arnold the giant was going to summon this time was indeed peerlessly horrible and powerful beyond his imagination.

Gathering all his strength, Ding Hao frantically activated the Bi Fang’s Fire in the Middle Dantian in his chest. He bent the Divine Four Guardians Bow to the extreme, ready to shoot the strongest arrow he could manage. He did not dare to be any bit careless this time.

But right at this moment—

“Hey? What’s happened to me? Why can’t I use the power of the tattoo to summon the beast?”

Arnold the giant abruptly let out a cry of surprise. The black light which was about to completely gather on the tattoo on the top of his head suddenly dispersed without any warning. The tattoo on his head, which had emitted a ray of dazzling black light, also quickly dimmed. And the terrible aura that had emanated from it also disappeared in an instant.
