Chapter 143: Capturing the Moon-Gazing Beast

Yet the Moon-Gazing Beasts before them clearly had no Ancient Gods parasiting them, yet they were still lively and brimming with soaring Evil Qi.

In the Void Realm a hundred thousand miles away, three people stood with their hands behind their backs, looking towards that bloody battlefield from afar.

Hall Master Yan Leizi stood at the very front with his hands behind his back, his expression calm.

Behind him stood two middle-aged men. One wore a green robe, had a thin face, and eyes like lightning; the other wore a purple robe, had a stalwart build, and a face as red as a ripe date.

The aura around both of them was as deep as an abyss; they were surprisingly both powerful experts of the Sui Nie Realm.

"Hall Master Yan Leizi, aren't you going to make a move yet?"

The green-robed man said in a deep voice.

"Hehe, everyone, what's the rush?"

Hall Master Yan Leizi smiled.

"There is still one person who has not arrived. How can this grand show begin prematurely?"

Just as he finished speaking, he turned his head with a smile. "He is here."

The Void Realm in the distance distorted, golden lightning exploded, and a figure stepped out from the rift.

His black robe fluttered, and he stepped on a golden thunder Dragon. The Dragon's head was held high, its scales shimmering with light.

It was indeed Chu Yuan.

Hall Master Yan Leizi took a step forward, cupped his hands, and smiled. "Fellow Daoist Chu, it has been a long time."

Chu Yuan nodded slightly and returned the gesture. "Fellow Daoist Hall Master Yan Leizi."

The other two looked at each other, understanding dawning in their hearts. They also took a few steps forward, cupped their hands, and said, "I presume Your Excellency is the one who fought with Immortal Lord Qingshui in the Thunder Immortal Realm? I am Xiang Tian of the Donglin Xiang family."

"I am Gongsun Ju of the Gongsun family. Greetings, Fellow Daoist Chu."

Chu Yuan cupped his hands and said calmly, "I am Chu Yuan."

Hall Master Yan Leizi stroked his beard with a chuckle, his gaze sweeping over the three of them, a hint of excitement in his tone. "Now that everyone has arrived, we can prepare to begin this grand show."

Chu Yuan turned his head, his gaze piercing through the Void Realm to land on that bloody battlefield.

These strange beasts rampaged through the Void Realm, leaving corpses strewn everywhere in their wake. The wails of the Cultivators could be heard even from ten thousand miles away.

"Moon-Gazing Beast?"

Chu Yuan frowned slightly.

"Fellow Daoist Hall Master Yan Leizi called me here for this beast?"

"Hehe, exactly."

Hall Master Yan Leizi raised his hand and pointed, a flash of smugness in his eyes.

"Fellow Daoist, take a look, how is the strength of this beast?"

Chu Yuan focused his gaze and looked.

The aura around those Moon-Gazing Beasts surged, and the largest one…

Beneath the Third Step, it could be called invincible.

Even he would probably find his strength lacking when facing such a strange beast.

"At the Peak Sui Nie Realm, beneath the Third Step, it can display great power."

Chu Yuan said slowly.

"Hahahahaha!"

Hall Master Yan Leizi laughed heartily.

"Fellow Daoist, what do you think would happen if this beast entered the Alliance Star Domain and ran amok?"

He paused, his gaze sweeping over the three of them, a hint of ferocity flashing in his eyes. "If we join forces, along with our subsequent Luo Tian Star Domain Cultivators, we can definitely drive this Moon Beast into the Alliance once the passage is opened!"

Chu Yuan remained silent. It seemed Hall Master Yan Leizi and the others did not know he came from the Alliance Star Domain, but they probably had some suspicions.

With the Battle of the Moon-Gazing Beasts breaking out, it seemed Wang Lin was also involved. It wouldn't be long before Wang Lin would make a Breakthrough into the Kui Nie Realm.

The Moon-Gazing Beast.

As this thought crossed Chu Yuan's mind, fragmented memories from the Ancient God Legacy surfaced in his head.

During ancient times, almost every Ancient God had a Moon-Gazing Beast parasiting inside their body.

That thing seemed to be just a parasite inside the Ancient God's body, but in reality, it was more like a handy Magic Treasure. It could be used as a mount or for storage. A vast amount of Ancient God Essence Qi and the Origin of Immemorial Vicious Beasts accumulated within the Moon-Gazing Beast's body, which the Ancient God could extract to quickly heal injuries and achieve a Breakthrough in Realm.

The Moon-Gazing Beast and the Ancient God depended on each other for survival; if the Ancient God died, the Moon-Gazing Beast would perish.

Although there were a very few cases of backlash, they were indeed one in ten thousand.

His original body was currently at the four-star Peak, half a step into five-star.

If he could capture a Moon-Gazing Beast for his original body to drive, his combat power would surely rise to another level.

As for the Moon-Gazing Beast turning on its master?

Heh, he could simply plant a slave seal, making it absolutely foolproof.

"Everyone, it is time for us to make a move."

Hall Master Yan Leizi's voice pulled him back from his thoughts.

Hall Master Yan Leizi turned to look at Chu Yuan and said politely, "Fellow Daoist Chu, there is no need for you to make a move. This time, I merely invited you to watch. We will discuss further afterward."

Chu Yuan nodded. "Suit yourself, Fellow Daoist."

Hall Master Yan Leizi said no more. He exchanged glances with Xiang Tian and Gongsun Ju, and the three of them disappeared at the same time.

In the next moment, Xiang Tian appeared in the air above the swarm of Moon-Gazing Beasts.

He formed hand seals with both hands, outlining a massive octagonal great Formation in the Void Realm, firmly imprisoning the largest Moon-Gazing Beast.

The Formation runes flowed with brilliant golden light. Xiang Tian's expression was grave, and the veins on his forehead bulged, clearly showing that this Formation consumed an immense amount of energy.

"Everyone, hurry! I cannot trap this beast for long!"

Hall Master Yan Leizi waved his hand, causing the Void Realm to tremble. The figures of those Luo Tian Star Domain Cultivators, who were being hunted by the Moon-Gazing Beasts and fleeing in all directions, were wrapped in an invisible force, merging into the world, and instantly appearing in a safe place a hundred thousand miles away.

His movements were smooth and flowing, without the slightest hesitation.

Seeing the three of them make their move, Chu Yuan stopped overthinking.

His Divine Thought surged out, and he quickly locked onto a fairly large Moon-Gazing Beast. With a body of ten thousand feet, its aura was roughly around the Early Stage of the Pure Nirvana Realm.

You're the one.

His original body's strength was currently limited, so this Jingnie Stage Moon-Gazing Beast was just right.

With the Thunder Beast's Sui Nie Realm Great Perfection cultivation, it was enough to deter the beast from acting presumptuously.

Chu Yuan's figure merged into the world, and in the next moment, he appeared in front of that Moon-Gazing Beast.

The ten-thousand-foot giant beast spanned across the Void Realm, completely pitch-black, its scales covered in eerie blood-colored patterns.

"Roar!!!"

It seemed to sense the hostile intent of the newcomer. It threw its head back and roared, the sound waves rolling and shattering the surrounding meteorites.

It opened its massive mouth, black flames condensing within before spewing towards Chu Yuan.

Chu Yuan's expression remained unchanged. He raised his hand and clawed; a ten-thousand-foot thunder hand condensed in the Void Realm, its five fingers like mountains, completely enveloped in golden lightning.

The thunder hand clawed towards the black flames, which dissipated inch by inch within the lightning, failing to stir up even a single ripple of residual shockwaves.

At the same time, the forbidden banner flew out from his sleeve, turning into a black light that hovered above his head.

Chu Yuan pinched a hand seal with one hand, and over ten thousand Restrictions surged out from the banner, wrapping around the Moon-Gazing Beast layer upon layer.

Those Restrictions slithered over the Moon-Gazing Beast's scales, seeping into its body, binding its spiritual power, flesh, and Primordial Spirit inch by inch.

"Roar!!!"

The Moon-Gazing Beast roared, its massive body struggling frantically in the Void Realm.

Black flames spewed in all directions, burning and distorting the surrounding Void Realm.

Yet those Restrictions tightened more and more, wrapping increasingly dense. No matter how it struggled, it could not break free in the slightest.

Chu Yuan's face was calm as he coldly watched the giant beast in its death throes.

Ten thousand wasn't enough? Then add another ten thousand.

The forbidden banner shook once more, and another ten thousand Restrictions flew out, wrapping the Moon-Gazing Beast tightly.

The Moon-Gazing Beast's struggles gradually weakened, and its roars became feeble.

Ultimately, it quieted down completely, quietly floating in the Void Realm like a black mountain range.

With a wave of his hand, Chu Yuan took the imprisoned Moon-Gazing Beast into his possession.

From making his move to subduing it, only a few breaths of time had passed.

Seeing this scene from afar, Hall Master Yan Leizi laughed heartily.

"Hahahahaha, Fellow Daoist, you certainly have quite the interest to capture a Moon Beast like this."
