Primordial 'Dual Cultivator' Dragon With System
Chapter 977: Darkness Beast IV

"Hey! Stop your attacks!" Ling Xi shouted as soon as she appeared on Ling Yun's back. "We just brought two void-devouring beasts out of the void to hunt the darkness beasts, and they will attack us if your attacks hit them."

Hearing that, Ling Yun immediately stopped his attack, and he also pulled back the dark creatures. Tian Lanyi and the others also stopped their attacks, especially since the void-devouring beasts were more dangerous and stronger than the darkness beast, and Zhou Yu's void walls would be useless to stop them.

*Roar... Roar...*

Suddenly, they heard two loud and angry roars, and the void-devouring beasts had already moved to chase the darkness beast, especially since only the beast was visible before their eyes.

"Do you think they will be able to capture that beast?"

"Yes." Zhou Yun confidently nodded at Ling Yun. "For now, we only need to wait for them to paralyze that beast, and Big Sis will immediately move to snatch it from them. After that, I will open the void crack once again, and it will suck them back there into the void. However, your guys need to brace yourselves to prevent the void from sucking you, particularly because the crack won't be small, and it would be a waste of time for me to search for you."

Ling Yun and the others did not dare to take Zhou Yu's warning lightly, especially since none of them understood the void, so they themselves would suffer if they were sucked into it.

They continued to hear roars from various realms, which came from the void-devouring beasts and also the darkness beast itself, and their battles resulted in huge explosions that also continued to occur within those realms.

Unfortunately, they were unable to see their ferocious battle, and only Zhou Yu was able to see all of it by utilizing her connection with the void-devouring beasts, so she continued to monitor their battle while informing them.

Although the void-devouring beasts are agile, the darkness beast is cunning, and it was able to escape from the two beasts, which made them even more furious, especially since they had never experienced such difficulties when they were hunting the intruders who infiltrate the void.

Although the darkness beast was powerful, Ling Yun and the others had been attacking it for a long time, causing its Qi to significantly decrease. With the aggressiveness of the void-devouring chasing it, it slowly began to struggle to avoid them, mainly because it also couldn't hide in the darkness, especially since the two beasts were able to pinpoint its location.

A few hours later, Zhou Yu observed that the void-devouring beasts were beginning to push back the darkness beast, a development that excited Ling Yun when she told him about it. "Big Sis, their fight will end soon, but you have to move really fast to snatch it from them, or those two beasts will chase you straight away, and it might run away again."

Ling Xi nodded as she prepared herself, especially since she only had one chance, so she couldn't fail, or they would face even more serious danger.

Time after time passed, and without them realizing that the day had passed, the darkness beast's toughness was simply amazing, and it continued to successfully avoid the two void-devouring beats.

Even so, the darkness beast ultimately had to surrender to the two beasts, especially since the qi in its body was already too thin, and it no longer had the strength to avoid them.

When she saw the two void-devouring beasts about to devour the darkness beast, Zhou Yu immediately grabbed her sister's shoulder before bringing her to their area. Without wasting any time, Ling Xi swiftly blasted the two beasts away, snatched it from them, and sealed its cultivation, infuriating them with her actions.

When the two beasts were about to chase Ling Xi, Zhou Yu immediately opened a huge void crack behind them, and they struggled to resist the suction from inside the void. However, their struggle to free themselves strengthened the suction, eventually drawing them in, prompting Zhou Yu to immediately close it again before returning to Ling Yun and the others' side.

Ling Yun himself had returned to his human form, but his expression was still annoyed as he looked at the darkness beast lying helplessly in front of them, and he wanted to torture it for toying with them before. But alas, he didn't have much time for that, so he immediately crouched beside it, bit his finger, and used his blood to draw a symbol on its body.

*Roar*

The darkness beast let out a shrill roar full of pain as soon as Ling Yun used the elemental creation manual on it, and a black pillar shot up into the sky while raising it into the sky.

*Roar... Roar...*

"Master, your technique already tormented that beast, so you didn't even need to torture it." Cai Hudie spoke as she pointed to the sky. "Back then, when you used that technique the first time, that girl wasn't in the slightest pain, but this beast was in so much pain that it kept wailing."

"You are truly foolish, Hudie." Long Ma commented, shaking her head. "When our master used that technique on her, she was already mentally broken, and her consciousness was already thin, so it was natural that he didn't feel the slightest pain."

Cai Hudie nodded understandingly at her sister. "Well, you're right about that. Phew! This way, we can leave this cursed realm and arrive at the mysterious realm in three days. I can't wait to explore it with our master."

"I agree with you, and I myself can't wait to explore the tower." Bai Zhongyi then asked Ling Yun. "Master, where do you want to break through to the Peak Saint Realm and Lower Venerate Realm?"

"Hmm?" Ling Yun raised his eyebrows as he watched the darkness. "I think this realm is the suitable place for me to break through, especially since there is no one else in this place, and this darkness might be able to help me reduce the power of my lightning tribulations, so I will break through here after that damn beast becomes my familiar."

However, Ling Xi reminded Ling Yun directly. "You're not wrong in that, but the heavens aren't stupid, and they must have known that the darkness beast had fallen into your hands, especially since they kept watching you to find a way to kill you. Once that beast becomes familiar, the darkness will gradually fade away, so you won't be able to take advantage of it. Even if you break through now, I'm willing to bet that they won't immediately bring down your lightning tribulations; instead, they will wait for this darkness to completely dissipate before attacking you."

"Big Sis is right, Ling Yun." Zhou Yu also spoke to him. "That's why you should prepare yourself right now if you really want to break through in this realm, especially since you will break through two stages at once, and your breakthrough to the venerate realm will be more terrifying than your breakthrough to the Peak Saint Realm."

"I know." Ling Yun nodded in understanding toward them. "In that case, you can bring them to this realm, and I will start my breakthrough after this beast becomes my familiar, so we can go straight to that tower after I finish breaking through."

"All right, I will pick them up now, and you can start preparing everything."

After Zhou Yu disappeared from their sight, Ling Yun immediately sat on the ground and made several preparations to overcome the attacks from his lightning tribulations, especially since he was sure that the heavens would try to kill him again. "Hey, Ling Xi! Those bastards won't be as strong as back then if I just break through one stage at a time, right?"

"Yes." Ling Xi nodded to Ling Yun. "Back then, your lightning tribulations were too strong because you didn't experience them when breaking through from the Peak King Realm to the Peak Emperor Realm directly, and you also did the crazy thing of breaking through to the Upper Saint Realm at the time."

"I see." Ling Yun nodded with a smile. "In that case, I don't need to worry too much about them, and I'm confident that I can breakthrough easily since I'll just break through to the Peak Saint Realm first."

After they waited for a long time, the black pillar finally disappeared, and the darkness beast landed on the ground again. However, Ling Xi and the others could see that it underwent quite a significant change; its body became blacker than before, but it no longer had consciousness.

"Master, does this beast still have its old abilities?" Jiu Shen asked Ling Yun as she observed the beast.

"Yes." Ling Yun nodded to Jiu Shen. "Unfortunately, this beast's strength dropped drastically after it became familiar, and its current strength is on par with mine, so its old abilities will also experience a significant decrease."

However, Jin Zhongli then told him. "Master, even if this darkness's strength has decreased drastically, you can at least still use it's ability to maintain this darkness, and this will provide more protection when you break through."

"Yeah, you're right." Ling Yun agreed with Jin Zhongli. "In that case, I will go to another area, and I will start my breakthrough."
