Chapter 142
Suddenly, an eerie thing happened. The boiling hot lava disappeared and in the center of the arena, there appeared a sole, gigantic bowl containing noodles.
Inside were ingredients such as poached eggs, ribs, and spicy sauce. Yue Yang walked towards it in huge steps, with chopsticks in his hands, he seemed to be preparing to eat the noodles. The observant ones had already noticed that his pierced foot and the lava that splashed onto him disappeared as he looked as good as before. To make things eerier, Nightmare turned into a white pig all of a sudden.
The chopsticks in Yue Yang's hand turned into a meat chopper as he explained, "Ribs ain't enough, I'll have to kill a pig and barbeque it for some barbecued pork!"
"No, I'm not a pig, this is an illusion..." Nightmare shrieked in horror.
All the illusions disappeared.
Yue Yang didn't move an inch as he watched silently.
Standing before him were the stunned Tiger Nian and Nightmare, who was covered in perspiration.
To add to the shock, Nightmare continued to cry hysterically, "I wasn't killed, I wasn't placed onto the table, no, I wasn't butchered into pieces nor was I barbequed, no, this is my Beast, this is an illusion, I didn't die... This is impossible, how could others control my Beast, this is all an illusion... Tiger Nian save me, no, you can't kill me, you can't betray me, we are... This is impossible, you are already dead, I already ate you, no, no, teacher, spare me..."
Nightmare's hysterical cries stopped suddenly.
Nightmare collapsed as his body twitched and convulsed into spasms as if he just saw the most terrifying thing on Earth.
His eyes were wide opened and bulging like that of a dead fish. His pupils expanded and froze gradually.
Tiger Nian shook Nightmare's body vigorously and slapped him continually as he tried to wake Nightmare up from the illusions of his 'Nightmare Beast'. Unfortunately, all he could do was to watch his partner, Nightmare, die from fright.
Nightmare, a serial killer who toyed with his opponent and a disciple who killed his own teacher with a Beast, is dead.
He died from his own 'Nightmare Beast'.
"...It's impossible!" The fat An Dong's perspiration fell like a waterfall as he stared at Yue Yang in the arena in horror. With a pale complexion, he whispered to himself, "This is impossible, this is a delusion, this lad couldn't have killed Nightmare, he's the mighty Nightmare!"
"Please allow me to remind you, Mr. An Dong, that this is a fact." The mysterious man curled his lips and smiled.
Following Nightmare's death, his grimoire and his 'Nightmare Beast' exploded violently with a boom.
The Gold Grimoire dulled and reverted back to the state without a master.
The Nightmare Beast disappeared into the mirage and left behind only a black bead that rolled towards Yue Yang's feet.
Yue Yang bend down and picked both the bead and the Gold Grimoire up. He then kept them into a Lich Ring swiftly.
Jia De the fat toad began to understand where the five Platinum Grimoire came from. They were all acquired by Yue Yang after defeating his opponents.
God, what kind of opponents did he kill?
As Nightmare collapsed, the entire arena was roaring with cheers, including those gamblers who betted for Yue Yang to lose previously.
Nobody could stand the two scums, Nightmare and Tiger Nian. But as they were constrained by their limited power, they could only comply. After watching Nightmare getting killed, and Tiger Nian landing himself into a sticky situation, who wouldn't be happy enough to cheer?
Tiger Nian took out a dodgy-looking wand and waved it.
A black-light flashed past.
Suddenly nobody could speak as their mouth seemed to have been sealed.
Silence loomed over the whole of the arena.
"Silence Wand, Gold-ranked equipment! " Everyone responded to it quickly but no one could speak a word under the spell of the Silence Wand, which almost suffocated those who were in the middle of their shoutings when the spell was casted.
Not only did Tiger Nian sealed the mouths of everyone in the arena using the Silence Wand so that they couldn't cheer for Yue Yang, but he also summoned a giant beast at the same time.
The beast looked like a tiger.
It had a huge physique, spanning an enormous length of 20 meters from head to tail.
Its mountain-like physique made it look very fit and full of strength.
The Reaper Mantis which had been hovering the air dived down fearlessly.
The Reaper Mantis had seen nothing short of strong beasts.
It had also killed several of them. Forget about the Tiger beast, it would even kill a giant dragon without hesitation. It was no average Reaper Mantis, as it had been nurtured with a large number of Dragons Crystals and Yue Yang's Innate Qi. Complemented with the Heaven Runes and purification by the Nirvana's Flame, it was definitely a Reaper Mantis with the most potential in history! After all, she had already become a Holy Beast but Yue Yang didn't let his beasts summoned their grimoires as it would shock everyone to death.
The Reaper Mantis' sickle pierced into the body of the Tiger Beast deeply, causing huge wounds on its neck and lower spine.
From the sickle attacks just now, the Reaper Mantis had already slashed the Tiger Beast's artery and windpipe, it almost hacked its entire head off.
Under normal conditions, the Tiger Beast would definitely die.
However, something eerie happened...
The Tiger Beast's head which had almost been hacked off didn't have any blood on his wounds. They were even healing rapidly.
In less than ten seconds, the fatal wound disappeared without a trace, as if they were never there in the first place. The Tiger Beast's horn was shimmering with green light as a pair of wings began to grow on his back, like that of a bat's, the wing developed and opened.
It rose to the sky and sailed towards the Reaper Mantis in the sky.
On the ground, Tiger Nian smiled coldly as he unleashed his strong power as a Level Three Innate, stunning everyone with his shockwave.
Waving his thunderous punches, he charged towards Yue Yang.
Yue Yang didn't retaliate nor did he take a step backward to shy away.
All he did was to move his upper body slightly.
In doing so only, he managed to dodge casually from all the punches thrown by Tiger Nian.
Although every single punch threw by Tiger Nian was lethal, he didn't even manage to touch the hair of Yue Yang after more than ten punches.
The Reaper Mantis in the air slashed the Tiger Beast who had overestimated its abilities and tried to attack it. The Reaper Mantis tear the Tiger Beast into two ferociously and threw it to the ground... However, the strange Tiger Beast remained unscathed as it fused together again within half a minute. It completely returned to its initial state, unwounded.
