Chapter 664: Commanding Birds, None Dare Disobey! (Third Update, for

Due to the Blazing Sun Weather, the power of the Flame Pillar was greatly increased, and coupled with the fact that it had grasped the true essence of the Undying Fire and the Endless Wood, it dealt powerful secondary damage to the Frost Giant.

Roar~

The Frost Giant let out a painful roar, and its voice rapidly faded, but Liu Xuguang had already prepared for a recall ever since the Crowned Flame-Bird appeared.

Rumble~

Just as Liu Xuguang was preparing to recall the Frost Giant, the red and white flames suddenly exploded; the Crowned Flame-Bird had utilized the bursting effect of the Semi-Artifact Fire Phoenix Crown to detonate the remaining power of the flames prematurely.

Like blood-colored fireworks, countless severed limbs and flesh splattered everywhere, scattering within a hundred-meter radius, giving one the feeling of a blood-colored purgatory.

Bang~

The Frost Giant became drenched in blood, looking like a massive lump of meat, its entire body covered in severe burn marks; like a golden mountain collapsing or a jade pillar toppling, it fell heavily to the ground and ceased to breathe.

Liu Xuguang frowned, his Consciousness Sea beginning to surge with turbulent waves, but this was still within his tolerance, and he directly used his vigorous Mental Power to forcefully suppress it.

In the end, he was still a beat too slow and failed to save the Frost Giant's life.

Sun Min, acting as the referee, was slightly stunned and subconsciously glanced at Li Changsheng; she had not expected that after killing the four main Demon Pets of the Third Prince Dou Yuanbin yesterday, Li Changsheng would continue to kill Liu Xuguang's Demon Pets—was he cruel and bloodthirsty, or did he have an irreconcilable blood feud with these two?

If Li Changsheng continued to be this aggressive, it would be very easy to make enemies; Sun Min's eyes darted around, and it was unknown what she was thinking in her heart.

However, Sun Min did not forget her duty and spoke to announce: "The Frost Giant is dead, please have contestant Liu Xuguang switch to the next Demon Pet!"

At this moment, several staff members directed a Cyclops to quickly clear the flesh and remains from the Ice Field.

"Quite astonishing power; the Crowned Flame-Bird killed the Frost Giant forcefully with just one move!"

Only at this moment did the shocked voice of the on-site commentator finally ring out.

Clatter, clatter, clatter~

The applause and cheers of the audience resounded throughout the Yecheng Arena; bloody battles were a situation that certain spectators loved to see.

By the time the Frost Giant's severed limbs and flesh were cleared away, less than a minute had passed.

During this time, Liu Xuguang pondered for a moment, and unexpectedly, he did not summon a Demon King-level Demon Pet, but instead summoned a large avian Demon Pet.

This was a Savage Ice Eagle, looking quite large in size with a wingspan of fully twenty meters, and it possessed three ice-blue tail feathers about ten meters long, looking exceptionally magnificent and bearing a five or six-point resemblance to an Ice Crystal Phoenix.

Li Changsheng observed it and discovered that this was a Superior Quality, High-Level Monarch species Savage Ice Eagle, possessing a Concentrated Grade Ice Crystal Phoenix Bloodline and at the Lord 9th Rank, its strength clearly exceeding that of the previous Frost Giant.

Perhaps this was why Liu Xuguang had sent it out, wanting to exhaust the Crowned Flame-Bird's stamina as much as possible to lay the foundation for victory for his subsequent Demon Pets.

Chirp~

The Savage Ice Eagle let out a sharp cry, and gusts of cold wind began to blow across the field, attempting to form a snowy weather condition.

Unfortunately, the Savage Ice Eagle had not reached the Demon King level, and its weather trait could not suppress the Crowned Flame-Bird's Blazing Sun Weather, so naturally, it could not replace it, though it did weaken the Blazing Sun Weather, causing the high temperature on the field to drop quite a bit.

Li Changsheng did not know what he had thought of, but upon seeing this Savage Ice Eagle, he felt inexplicably happy in his heart.

Soon, the ten-second observation time was up.

Chirp~

At the first opportunity, the Crowned Flame-Bird let out a loud cry, simultaneously emitting a peculiar aura that only avian Demon Pets could sense.

The moment it felt this aura, the Savage Ice Eagle, which had been about to launch an attack, saw its eyes instantly become dazed, its body trembling uncontrollably as if it were no longer in command of itself.

The Crowned Flame-Bird possessed the Commanding Birds trait, which could forcibly summon avian Spirit Beasts within range that were lower in rank and species than itself to fight in coordination; the Demon Pets of a Monster Tamer were naturally included in this.

The Savage Ice Eagle was only at the Lord rank, and its species was inferior to the Crowned Flame-Bird, so it was naturally within the range of control.

"Not good!"

Seeing this situation, Liu Xuguang secretly thought it was bad and wanted to recall the Savage Ice Eagle immediately.

Yet at this very moment, the Crowned Flame-Bird had already launched its attack on the Savage Ice Eagle.

Rapid Gale and Rain!

In an instant, the Crowned Flame-Bird appeared in front of the Savage Ice Eagle; the Savage Ice Eagle wanted to dodge, but it had almost lost control of its body and was struck head-on by the Crowned Flame-Bird.

Before the Savage Ice Eagle could fall, the Crowned Flame-Bird used astonishing explosive power to appear beneath the Savage Ice Eagle first, once again knocking the Savage Ice Eagle toward the higher sky.

Repeating this cycle, the Savage Ice Eagle was like a volleyball; within a single breath, it was knocked into the air a full five times by the Crowned Flame-Bird, the final time even striking its slender neck.

Bang~

The Savage Ice Eagle fell heavily to the ground, its body covered in wounds, its chest severely sunken, and its neck even broken; it was in a dying state with more air going out than coming in, and it could die at any moment.

The single-hit power of Rapid Gale and Rain was not strong, but it excelled in completing multiple attacks in an instant, using quantity to make up for the lack of power and dealing massive damage to the enemy.

Only at this moment did Liu Xuguang finally complete the recall, and the Savage Ice Eagle turned into a stream of light and rushed into Liu Xuguang's Yin Tang acupoint.

Just as Liu Xuguang was preparing to summon the Savage Ice Eagle again and implement rescue, his body swayed violently, his face turned pale in a flash, a trace of blood faintly appeared at the corner of his mouth, his expression was as ugly as could be, and the look he cast at Li Changsheng was filled with hatred so intense it could not be resolved.

The poor Savage Ice Eagle, before Liu Xuguang could save it, had completely stopped breathing and died just like that in the Demon Pet Space; Liu Xuguang could only summon the corpse of the Savage Ice Eagle.

In this way, Liu Xuguang had lost two main Demon Pets in a row, while the Crowned Flame-Bird remained completely unscathed.

"The Savage Ice Eagle has lost... er, died, please have contestant Liu Xuguang switch to the next Demon Pet!"

Sun Min looked at this scene in astonishment; she had not expected such a thing to happen, but she still made the judgment truthfully.

Clatter, clatter, clatter~

Inside the Yecheng Arena, it was filled with the sound of the audience, one wave higher than the next; Li Changsheng's supporters completely drowned out Liu Xuguang's supporters.

"Damn it!"

Liu Xuguang was trembling with rage, but he still forced himself to calm down; this time, he finally summoned his first Demon King-level Demon Pet—the Human-Faced Shark!

Just like its name, the Human-Faced Shark had a human head and a shark body, along with a long head of red hair; it was fully nearly forty meters long and looked quite imposing.

This was another of Liu Xuguang's Demon King-level Demon Pets besides the Dragon Python; as for why he did not send out the Dragon Python, it was mainly because Liu Xuguang was too wary of Aixi and wanted to use the Dragon Python to deal with it, but this also caused him to neglect one thing while attending to another, losing two main Demon Pets in succession.

At the first opportunity, Li Changsheng obtained the data on the Human-Faced Shark.

【Spirit Beast Name】: Human-Faced Shark (Mature Stage, Top-tier Exotic Beast) 《Absorbed the Seven-Colored Rainbow Pearl, gained flight ability. 》

【Spirit Beast Rank】: Demon King 4th Rank

【Spirit Beast Species】: High-Level Monarch

【Spirit Beast Quality】: Top Quality

【Spirit Beast Bloodline】: Gonggong (Rich)

【Spirit Beast Attribute】: Water

【Spirit Beast Status】: Healthy

【Spirit Beast Weakness】: Earth

More than three months ago, the reason Li Zhangsheng believed Liu Xuguang was stronger than Liu Zongtang and Dou Yuanbin was naturally because his two Demon Beasts were both very powerful.

The Dragon Python goes without saying; its Epic quality alone is enough to contend with two ordinary Demon Beasts. And this Human-Faced Shark can also be called excellent among Demon Beasts.

Compared to the Crowned Blazing Bird, the Human-Faced Shark's race is slightly inferior, but its realm is higher, and its advantage in attribute suppression over the Crowned Blazing Bird makes its winning percentage seem greater.

As for why Liu Xuguang did not summon the Human-Faced Shark earlier, it is likely related to the field. Due to the Blazing Sun Weather, the ice layer on the Ice Field has become much thinner, and in some places, puddles have even appeared, which also gives the Human-Faced Shark a field advantage, increasing its winning percentage.

Splash~

At the first opportunity, the Human-Faced Shark relied on its weight to directly crush the much thinner ice layer, falling into the cold water and splashing a large amount of water.

The field is 300 meters long and 150 meters wide. Judging from the feedback of Mental Power, the water depth is about 15 meters. Although it is a bit narrow for the Human-Faced Shark, it is enough for it to exert its full strength.

At this moment, the Crowned Blazing Bird condensed an Explosive Fireball the size of a house and smashed it toward the huge fish fin of the Human-Faced Shark exposed above the water surface.

The Human-Faced Shark raised its huge human-like head, opened its mouth, and spat out a torrent, which collided with the Explosive Fireball.

Rumble~

The Explosive Fireball suddenly exploded, turning into countless sparks that flew onto the Ice Field.

Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle~

The sound of water and fire being incompatible rang out, stirring up waves of water vapor; even though they were just sparks, they still caused the water level to sink slightly.

Swish, swish, swish~

Just at this moment, the Human-Faced Shark broke through a large amount of the ice surface, whipping up surging giant waves. Under its control, Water Columns as thick as water vats shot into the sky, and it looked like they were about to envelop the Crowned Blazing Bird.

At the critical moment, the Crowned Blazing Bird unleashed the Five Phoenix Divine Fire Cover, and its entire body was wrapped in a red and white flame shield; furthermore, five phoenix phantoms appeared, constantly flying around the flame shield.

The moment the Water Column came into contact with the five phoenix phantoms, the purple Yuezhu radiated water-blue Divine Power from its body. Under the effect of the water-attribute Divine Power, the power of the Water Column dropped significantly and was easily neutralized by the Divine Fire Cover.

Taking advantage of the fact that the Blazing Sun Weather was still shining and heating, the Crowned Blazing Bird maintained the Five Phoenix Divine Fire Cover, its body began to be shrouded in red and white flames, and it finally turned into a flame vortex with a diameter of several tens of meters, sweeping toward the Human-Faced Shark in the water.
