Section Eight “The Youngest Spirit Magister”
Chapter One Chi
That voice was not loud, and it seemed to carry a tinge of disdain. However, the voice could be heard clearly. It was imposing like an emperor glaring at an ant beside his foot.
Flame red color filled the field of view of Aofeng and her group.
A enormous wall of blinding fire shot into the sky in front of Aofeng! The entire mountain valley was immediately dyed red by the fierce flames. Even the sky turned dark red in reflection. Under Aofeng’s feet, the pattern of a nine-star senior magister suddenly rose but it was not the normal silver color but a strange crimson red.
Nothing like this had ever been seen mentioned from books in her memory before. The mercenaries behind Aofeng were startled, and so was Aofeng herself. After the attack just now, all of her magic had been used up. Theoretically, she did not have the power to summon a magus beast but Chi was able to come out of her magus beast s.p.a.ce by himself!
Yes, that cold, clear and pleasing voice. Aofeng remembered it well. That was Chi!
Chi was awake!
The fiery wall of flames retreated and revealed the crimson red figure within.
Aofeng stilled again. Her eyes were wide in wonder. This Chi was just as his name sake suggested. He was covered in a layer of Heaven Fire. Other than his jade-like skin, he was crimson red. Red eyes, red hair, red refined battle armor. Even his eyebrows were fiery red. Even more shocking to Aofeng was that while his voice was mature like that of a young male in his twenties, but his body was like that of an eight or nine year old.
A pair of large circular red earrings flashed with eerie light. The extremely beautiful Chi gave off a cold s.h.i.+ver-inducing presence. His expression was like the ice frost in the winter month. His long fire red hair flew freely among the scattered flames.
Glancing forward, Chi’s lower half didn’t move as he waved his hand towards the Thunder Leopard. He created a fiery red gust of wind that sliced through the air. Its speed was so fast that even the Thunder Leopard who was using a magus beast technique couldn’t dodge it!
“Zzzt!” With a sound like something being seared, the enormous leopard smashed hard onto the rock wall of the little mountain valley like a kite with its strings cut. The roar of the leopard suddenly became a lament.
The Thunder Leopard landed on the ground heavily. Gusts of black smoke came off its body. The fur which had been oiled and bright was completely burnt. The leopard was breathing shallowly where it laid.
Defeated with one blow!
The bystanders inhaled in shock as they watched. They suddenly wondered if there was a problem with their eyes.
One move that could cause a sacred beast to lose all fighting capability, and so easily, who … … who was he? Or what?
Only Aofeng knew that Chi was definitely a kind of magic beast.. She still remembered wha Liao Ya had said. Only adult super-divine beasts would manifest into human form. Was Chi a super-divine beast? But he still looked like a child. He did not seem to be an adult. At the time, Jun Luoyu and the others had said that Chi was still in his infant stage. As a result, Aofeng didn’t know what level of magus beast Chi was.
“Submission or death?” The child completely shrouded in fierce flames looked with ruby-like eyes at the Thunder Leopard and asked coldly. The pressure of a king descended into the world.
Aofeng and the others could not see, but in this moment, all of the magic beasts in the nearby forest suddenly trembled. They held their heads as they prostrated themselves in this direction, including sacred beasts and some of the divine beasts in the Death Ridge. At this time of a magic beast tide when a single presence would be drowned out, the adventurers that moved in the Great Forest of Neversetting Sun were puzzled by the phenomenon that suddenly occurred.
