Chapter 649 Net Attack (1/2)

It wasn’t because he was nosy. He really had just planned to give some time to the Gu tribe people to catch their breaths. Among all the Flaming Horn tribe members, he was probably the one that was least affected by the fire seed of the tribe, that was why he could venture so deep into the battlefield.

As he saw the tribe people getting ready to fight again, Shao Xuan started to move out of the way until he heard a voice.

“Wait!”

There was no one beside him. The voice wasn’t loud but it was clear as if someone was talking beside him.

It was the shaman. He was using a special technique to tell Shao Xuan and the rest to stay and help them.

Maybe because the shaman saw that Shao Xuan wasn’t affected by the fire seed or maybe he saw the effectiveness of the two spears, the shaman knew that only the Flaming Horn tribespeople would be able to do any damage to the beast.

The shaman knew that the tribe would be indebted to the Flaming Horn tribe after this but now wasn’t the time to discuss how they would repay them.

Shao Xuan agreed.

He would listen to the shaman’s orders for now.

“Front claw!”

Shao Xuan crouched as he ran, then slid towards the beast’s front claw.

The beast was looking in another direction so Shao Xuan used this opportunity to cut its claw.

Shing!

The deafening sound of metals colliding rung in everyone’s ears. The shiny scales that covered the beast’s claw flew everywhere.

Shao Xuan felt a numbness from his wrist to his shoulder on his sword-wielding hand.

Tough!

That was Shao Xuan’s first thought.

He didn’t feel the reaction force when he threw the spear but now he was feeling the full effect of it. No matter how strong or how sharp a sword was, it would be nothing compared to the scales on that beast.

With such strong defences, even if two hundred Flaming Horn warriors attacked it at once, it would take some time to wear it down.

This beast…

Shao Xuan suddenly thought of something.

He felt that this beast was different from the beasts they encountered. Even the large beast they showed off in the banquet was small compared to it.

This reminded Shao Xuan of the Bat King he saw many years ago. It was so quick that the warriors couldn’t catch it. The beast before him wasn’t built for speed nor was it agile. It couldn't even fly so on paper it was nothing compared to the beasts he faced before. However, this was much stronger and tougher to fight than anything he hunted before.

This was nearly as powerful as the Bat King he faced a few years back and that was scary enough.

Its defence was way too strong!

Usually, long necks are the weak points of beasts but this beast had its neck covered in those impenetrable scales.

The shaman didn’t know what Shao Xuan was thinking about. He was fully focused on adding on the nets on the beast. He spared a glance to see the damage Shao Xuan had done on the beast.

What a sharp weapon!

What material was that? How did they get it? The two spears and the sword he was holding was much different from stone weapons.

That was impressive!

However, it was a pity that the Flaming Horn tribe wouldn’t be able to take down the beast. The Gu tribe still had to rely on themselves, the Flaming Horn tribe was the only backup.

The skin on the beast’s claw was very thick, much thicker than the skin on its face. Even with such a strike from Shao Xuan, no blood was seen at its claw. It probably didn’t feel much pain from the cut too.

However, it was still enough to distract it.
