Chapter 259 The Tragic Lord of the Burrowing Beasts

Chen Shu watched the husky's retreating back and muttered, "Finally, you're a bit useful."

Guji!

The slime turned around and unleashed its "Terrifying Roar"!

The Burrowing Beast Lord was instantly controlled, but the slime didn't attack.

If it was pinned down, although its skills would be sealed,

its burrowing relied on its claws, and it might very well escape.

Chen Shu's expression was calm as he said, "Xiao Xing, grab it!"

The mutated Thunderbird's body was wreathed in flowing light, its tail continuously spewing blue streams of light as it unleashed various acceleration skills, reaching an incredible speed!

Its claws spread open, directly latching onto the Burrowing Beast Lord's tail!

"Since you want to burrow, I'll take you to the sky!"

The mutated Thunderbirds ascended rapidly, lifting the burrowing beast off the ground.

Screech!

The Burrowing Beast recovered and immediately realized the danger.

Its eyes glowed with skill energy, and just as it was about to unleash a skill,

the mutated Thunderbird released it.

The Burrowing Beast Lord plummeted rapidly, at a height of only a hundred meters, which wouldn't kill a Black Iron Lord.

Its eyes blazed with ferocity. Once it returned to the ground, it would be its domain again!

"You must be dealt with properly!"

Chen Shu grinned and commanded the slime to switch to flight mode.

Guji!

The giant slime took flight and crashed into the descending Burrowing Beast Lord.

Squeak!

Its eyes widened in terror, but being airborne, it couldn't control its direction,

and could only watch as this massive blob charged towards it.

Boom!

The Burrowing Beast Lord was sent flying again.

The slime closed its eyes, enjoying the freedom of flight.

Bang bang bang!

Every time the Burrowing Beast Lord thought it was about to land, it was sent soaring back into the air!

Guji! Guji!

Each impact sent jolts through its internal organs. It was simply too large.

"This kid!"

Du Ming stood on the back of the red flying bird, observing the scene.

He hadn't expected Chen Shu, a newly promoted Black Iron Beastmaster, to be able to beat a lord of the same level.

In reality, it wasn't that the slime's strength had overwhelmed the opponent,

but rather that Chen Shu had found the Burrowing Beast's weakness and prevented it from returning to the ground.

"Er Ha, shoot fireballs for me!"

Chen Shu stroked his chin and gave the command, wanting to add some damage.

The husky, which had been munching on grass on the ground, immediately looked up, its eyes glowing with skill energy once more.

Boom boom boom!

Another five consecutive fireballs were launched, directly at the slime's rear!

Guji!

The slime's "sleepy killer" move had ended.

Its large, naive eyes looked towards the husky on the ground, filled with great confusion.

"Damn it, you idiot dog! Listen to my commands!"

Chen Shu's mouth twitched. His prediction ability was exceptionally sharp, and aiming at airborne targets was simple.

However, this husky had its own ideas.

Chen Shu shook his head, realizing he needed to find an opportunity to specifically train the husky.

Bang bang bang!

The relentless impacts had already knocked the Burrowing Beast unconscious, its blood likely all expelled.

The slime's flight mode ended, and it returned to the ground.

Boom!

The Burrowing Beast lay sprawled on the ground like a dead dog, though still breathing faintly.

"Finally on the ground..."

Its eyes opened slightly, displaying a look of utter despair.

Just as it was about to desperately burrow, a large yellow backside suddenly appeared before its eyes!

Boom!

The slime pressed down on it, shaking its rear end incessantly.

The Burrowing Beast Lord was on its back, unable to burrow even if it wanted to.

After a while, its life force completely dissipated.

A Black Iron Lord had met its end on the spot!

"Little Yellow is the real MVP!"

The three of them landed on the ground, excited. They hadn't expected to encounter a lord-level ferocious beast right at the beginning, and to have successfully hunted it.

"I need to show my skills!"

Xie Sunan had been mostly on the sidelines, while Du Ming had meticulously recorded everything.

He rummaged through his bag and pulled out a butcher's knife, preparing to dismember the Burrowing Beast Lord's corpse.

"A butcher's knife?"

Du Ming was stunned. "Are you kidding me? You carry a butcher's knife around?"

"Are you sure that thing can cut a lord?"

However, in the next moment, Xie Sunan swung his knife, quickly dismembering it.

To him, butchering a ferocious beast was no different from butchering a pig.

"We have food tonight!"

The three looked at each other and smiled, gazing eagerly at the ten-odd jin of fresh meat.

As for the core materials and beast-taming pearls, they were stuffed into a urea bag, completely disregarded.

"Do these three have any idea about the value of ferocious beasts?"

Du Ming's mouth twitched. The beast meat was just for eating and wasn't worth much!

"Let's go!"

The three exchanged smiles and carefully carried the beast meat back onto the mutated Thunderbird's back.

Little Yellow was recalled into Chen Shu's beast-taming space, while the husky stayed by his side.

Its small size was manageable for the mutated Thunderbird.

The group then flew directly towards the depths of the spatial rift.

With the lord dead, the other burrowing beasts scattered like birds and beasts, retreating to their underground lairs.

"This is truly brutal!"

Someone watched the receding backs of the three and couldn't help but swallow.

"They hunted a lord-level ferocious beast right at the start!"

Lords were still terrifying existences for others; most beast-taming teams met their end because of lord-level ferocious beasts.

"I wonder what the expressions of those people who are doing the scoring will be."

Du Ming suddenly thought of something, a strange smile appearing on his lips.

"Xiao Hong, keep a close eye on these three!"

The red flying bird let out a soft cry and immediately gave chase. It was also a contract spirit skilled in speed, and it was Silver grade.

The three flew at extreme speed, quickly leaving the other high school students behind.

In fact, no one else was heading in their direction.

"Following a scoundrel, you'll be in trouble three days a week!"

The terrain of "Blazing Sun Hills" remained unchanged, still covered by small hills below,

but the only difference was that the temperature had increased!

Xie Sunan seemed to recall something and said, "Chen Pi, do you think there are edge zones in the异空间 (Yi Kong Jian - alternate dimension)?"

"Definitely! They taught you to study properly! It's not possible for it to be infinitely large."

The three continued northward, and night gradually fell.

"Let's rest below tonight."

Traveling at night carried considerable risks.

The key was that if they didn't eat soon, the Burrowing Beast Lord's meat would spoil.
