Chapter 512 — Roasted Demigod Bird Wings

The Beast-Taming Craftsman Page 4 of 5

It not only inherited the property of sowing beans to raise soldiers, able to condense troops in advance, but its effects were even stronger; the ten Chaos DouDou Bear clones before them had clearly been condensed by Eleven long beforehand, and now the eleven Chaos Pandas joined forces to block, forming a legion resonance—once again pitting a non-quasi-divine skill against a quasi-divine skill!!

BOOM!!!

The Golden Roc Demigod's mighty blow pierced the giant golden curtain of light that Eleven pushed up with a single palm, yet only a few cracks appeared—it could not break through at all; and then those cracks actually began repairing themselves swiftly, leaving the Golden Roc Demigod staring in shock.

"Who on earth are you." At this moment, the Golden Roc Demigod finally panicked.

A quasi-divine skill… was actually blocked by an ordinary skill!!!

The Sun God Phoenix and the other experts who came rushing over one after another also watched this scene from the sky with faces full of shock.

"Is that an Iron-Eating Beast? The legendary Martial Emperor's ace?" Like Huang Xi, the Sun God Phoenix had finally realized what race Eleven was.

But still, it could not understand.

Why… who on earth were they?

"The god-tier resource—are you giving it or not?" Shi Jin asked again.

"You go too far!!!" The Golden Roc Demigod roared in fury once more, its energy value beginning to climb steadily; seeing this, Shi Cen felt helpless.

Eleven, blocking the Golden Roc Demigod with one hand, said nothing more and raised the other.

In its palm, a round metal formed—that metal bore the two colors of black and white, one yin and one yang, one light and one dark, wreathed in two-toned lightning that blended, transformed, and clashed with one another, profoundly mysterious; everything around seemed to dissolve into primordial chaos, its balance shattered and ground away by that force.

It had not even touched the Golden Roc demigod, had not even fully taken shape—and yet it had already triggered the Voice of Law, the Voice of Law that annihilates all things. Merely the ripple of it sweeping past made the Golden Roc demigod's bloodline shudder in an instant; its quasi-divine skill, as though struck by a devastating blow, was suppressed and erased in the blink of an eye.

The Golden Roc demigod's pupils contracted violently, and shock spread across its face!!!

"Father King!!!" The little golden-winged roc was terrified by the skill as well—and it was not alone. Even the Solar Divine Phoenix, sensing a skill more dreadful than its own quasi-divine arts, froze on the spot.

From the moment it awoke until now, it had no idea what had been happening.

"He—he—" Princess Huangxi, seeing Shi Jin fight with such ferocity and pin a demigod down, was stunned as well.

Wasn't this Jia Qi only a level-eight beastmaster?

How could he possibly be this strong?

Even a legendary beastmaster could never suppress a demigod with a single beast, could he?

Even the Martial Emperor had to combine all nine of his beasts before he could pin a demigod down!!!

Was this the confidence behind Shi Jin's calm extortion of a demigod?

[The Martial Emperor? I once fought him, and narrowly won by half a move.] Suddenly, Princess Huangxi recalled what Shi Jin had said to her, and her vision nearly went black again.

But at this moment, she was even more bewildered—what exactly was this Jia Qi's purpose in cooperating with her?

"Wait—wait a moment." At that instant, the most terrified of all was still the Golden Roc demigod. This move, this move—if it struck it, it would be a devastating wound beyond measure!

It whipped its head toward the Solar Divine Phoenix and cried, "Solar Divine Phoenix, Your Majesty, aid me…"

The Solar Divine Phoenix: "What kind of joke is this? Who are you?"

The Golden Roc demigod: ?

It turned in panic once more to the top-tier quasi-divine skill that was slowly taking shape yet never quite took shape.

Though incomplete, it was still the one that could most keenly feel the terrifying might of this skill.

"Last chance." Shi Jin spoke.

The Golden Roc demigod was on the verge of tears too, cursing the little golden-winged roc inwardly, and said, "Sir, we bear no grudge against each other. There's no need for us to fight to the death."

"Three. Two…" Shi Jin counted down.

"I have no divine-grade resources—legendary resources, three legendary resources!!!"

Shi Jin frowned.

Seeing this, what happened next left the Solar Divine Phoenix and the others utterly incredulous: under Shi Jin's gaze, the Golden Roc demigod's expression shifted again and again, and then, with fierce resolve, it severed its own two wings.

Boom.

The enormous demigod wings crashed down, wreathed in intense surging energy. The Golden Roc demigod said, "Though I have no divine-grade resources, my wings count as one divine-grade resource. Sir, this time I admit defeat. Let us each take a step back and part on good terms—otherwise, even if I have to self-destruct, I will not let you off easily."

Not to mention the Solar Divine Phoenix and the others—even Shi Jin was startled, inwardly cursing. He had not expected the Golden Roc demigod to be so decisive, so ruthless.

He was not afraid of any demigod self-destruction—he had studied that thoroughly—but for a moment, he was left speechless.

The reason he had not attacked immediately was simply that he truly did not wish to fight to the death and let Eleven and the others waste too much power. After all, there were quite a few hard battles ahead, and Shi Yun would not stay long, so recovery would not be easy… But now, seeing the Golden Roc demigod break off its own wings, Shi Yun truly admired it.

This was the most decisive enemy he had ever seen.

"Father King…" The little golden-winged roc was completely dumbstruck.

Shi Jin glanced at the demigod wings, calculated their value, and sighed softly. "Forget it, forget it. You may go—take your son and leave at once."

"Screee!!!!" The Golden-Winged Great Roc God looked at its unfilial son with a flash of fury in its eyes. Hearing Shi Jin's words, it said nothing more; it turned its energy into wings, swept up a golden gale, and carried the little golden-winged roc away.

It had a premonition that this was the best possible outcome. This human youth was strange and unfathomable—surely a beastmaster, and one who had actually contracted a top-tier demigod as a beast. It dared not wager that, if the fight continued, the other side would not bring out yet more beasts.

Lost wings could be recovered and regrown after rest; lost life would mean the end of everything.

Boom!!!

The Golden Roc demigod carried off its offspring at once, leaving behind only two pairs of enormous demigod wings. Seeing this, Shi Jin suddenly remembered something and shouted after them:

"Wait! Don't forget those three legendary resources!!!"

The golden light fled even faster.

The Solar Divine Phoenix and the other phoenixes looked on in horror. What kind of creature was this?

By now, Shi Jin was delighted, his heart blooming as he gazed at the wings. He said to Eleven, "Good stuff! Go roast them first."

"Demigod-grade wings—I've never eaten them before. We can have a grand feast. This round is not a loss; now we have recovery supplies for what comes next. As for the wings, they're just barely edible!"

"Awoo…" Eleven dispersed the Yin-Yang Millstone and rubbed its belly again. Could this thing really be eaten?

"Probably…"

"Shouldn't be any worse than phoenix wings, though we haven't actually eaten phoenix wings yet…" Shi Li.

At this moment, Shi Cen turned to look at the Sun God Phoenix and the Future Empress, who had been watching from the sidelines all along.

Following Shi Shuo's gaze, the Sun God Phoenix was given a fright.

Alarm and wariness crept into its eyes despite itself.
