Chapter 273 - 273 Golden-horned Crocodile
Furthermore, these Golden-horned Crocodiles all had thick skin, giving them defensive powers that were far superior than their peers.
Shen Fei muttered, “They are indeed Emperor-rank beasts. A Golden-horned Crocodile is able to increase its defense to such a terrifying level. It’s simply an overpowering existence!”
In the eyes of cultivators, these Emperor-rank Golden-horned Crocodiles were peerless geniuses in defensive power. But at this moment, they were considered stuck in this valley. This reality was a little hard for Shen Fei to grasp.
“What do we do now, Shen Fei?” Aloy asked.
Shen Fei was silent for a moment before he said, “Let’s deal with these Golden-horned Crocodiles first.” He then charged straight toward the Golden-horned Crocodiles.
“Roaar!!” The Golden-horned Crocodiles roared.
They were the strongest beasts in the area, practically the local kings. Normal human cultivators were no match for them. Yet this puny human dared to challenge them. He was simply seeking his own death!
The Golden-horned Crocodiles leaped at Shen Fei. Their sharp weapons swiped through the air and slashed at Shen Fei. But they did not notice that Shen Fei’s aura was rising rapidly; its level was soaring like mad.
In the next moment, Shen Fei sent out a punch, and a violent energy erupted from his body and spread out. One side of the dense forest looked like a huge hold had punched through it. Shen Fei rushed in again and seemed to disappear from sight.
The Golden-horned Crocodiles were stunned. They never thought that these puny human cultivators would be able to unleash such a devastating attack. This was simply beyond their expectations.
“Howl!” An angry howl was heard from the group of Golden-horned Crocodiles. This howl then caused the rest of the crocodiles to retreat.
In the forest behind them, Shen Fei’s figure reappeared. The Golden-horned Crocodiles all raised their claws to smack at Shen Fei. These claws even contained an extremely violent energy that could destroy everything in their path.
Shen Fei clenched his hands into fists and ruthlessly met the claws head-on. The resulting force was terrifying enough to make Shen Fei’s heart tremble! He knew that if he did not have the strength to block the claws, he would be torn to pieces.
Bang!
The claws collided with Shen Fei, causing a violent explosion. The sharp claws even left a thin bloody mark on Shen Fei’s palm.
Meanwhile, Shen Fei’s arm turned completely black in that instant. It looked as though it was condensed from ink, emitting a pungent smell of decay.
“The heck! It’s so corrosive!” Shen Fei cursed.
The violent aura of his body suddenly erupted, growing stronger and stronger.
Seeing this, Aloy summoned her Ice Spirit. “Ice Spirit, use Ice Seal!”
The Ice Spirit made a noise of understanding. Then, it opened its mouth and a terrifying cold wind quickly swept out in all directions. In an instant, ice had covered the area in a radius of a hundred meters.
When the cold air stirred up, it turned into an endless shower of ice and snow, enveloping the Golden-horned Crocodiles. there was a constant crackling sound coming from inside the ice as the ice built itself layer upon layer.
When Shen Fei saw this, he could not help but exclaim, “Not bad, Ice Spirit!”
The Ice Seal was the Ice Spirit’s proudest skill. It also had a powerful freezing property. Once one was enveloped by the Ice Seal, even a high Emperor-rank exotic beast such as the crocodiles would not be able to break free, and would remain trapped in the cold for an eternity as an ice statue.
Indeed, as soon as the Ice Spirit relented and let the Ice Seal fall, the Golden-horned Crocodiles let out painful cries and began to wail.
“Shen Fei, why didn’t you summon your Flame Owl, or the Three-clawed Golden Dragon? Do you realize that if I hadn’t gotten Ice Spirit to help in time, you would have been dead?” Aloy rolled her eyes at him and pouted.
At this, Shen Fei could only smile. “Well… I forgot.” After he said this, his smile became awkward. He really did forget to summon his spirit beasts.
“Hmph! I can’t be bothered with you all the time.” Aloy snorted coldly.
At this moment, a Golden-horned Crocodile struggled out of the rest of the Ice Seal’s restraints. It suddenly jumped and tried to bite Shen Fei.
“Flame Owl, Blazing Charge!” Shen Fei cried. The Flame Owl immediately appeared, spreading its fiery red wings as it pounced on the Golden-horned Crocodile.
Shen Fei quickly pointed at an acupuncture point on the Flame Owl’s body. Immediately, the Flame Owl’s body started to burn. The color was similar to how phoenix fire looked, yet it was still different.
The Flame Owl flapped its wings and dove forward.
The Golden-horned Crocodile was not to be outdone either. It waved its sharp claws and swiped them at the Flame Owl.
However, just as the claws were about to touch the Flame Owl, the firebird’s body suddenly burst out with flames. The flames merged together instantly, and a loud eagle-like cry shook the sky.
In the next moment, a massive golden flaming bird appeared out of thin air, and dove at the Golden-horned Crocodile.
Boom!
An earth-shattering sound rang out as the firebird collided with the Golden-horned Crocodile’s claws, and a terrifying ripple of energy erupted from the two. The shockwave even bent and destroyed the surrounding trees.
Then, the Golden-horned Crocodile jumped and its body mysteriously disappeared. It was as though it had turned into a wisp of smoke.
“Huh?” Shen Fei’s brows furrowed slightly. He never thought that his Flame Owl’s ability would be lesser than the Golden-horned Crocodile’s speed.
In the next moment, there was a shriek that came from afar. On top of a giant tree, a huge Golden-horned Crocodile was enveloped by golden light. Then, it fell, smashing into the ground and creating a deep pit. In this pit, there was a pool of blood. The body of the Golden-horned Crocodile had been completely crushed!
When Shen Fei saw this, he could not help but gasp. “What incredible physical strength!”
