Chapter 482
The White Lion Beast King had been dealing with Song Song Qingming for more than half a year, so it was naturally very familiar with Song Song Qingming.
Ever since it fell into Song Song Qingming's calculations in the first clash, the White Lion Beast King had been much more cautious whenever it encountered Song Song Qingming afterward. Every time it fought Song Song Qingming on the battlefield, it had to bring numerous spirit beasts to act together. Even if it could occupy some advantages at times, the White Lion Beast King did not dare to leave the spirit beast army under its command alone to pursue the Jinshan Market cultivators.
Because of this, although Song Song Qingming's current strength could be a notch higher than the White Lion Beast King, he had no way to deal with it. After several duels, although he could occupy the upper hand, he had not been able to find an opportunity for Song Song Qingming to heavily injure this beast.
The White Lion Beast King also knew Song Song Qingming's power. Every time there was a great battle, it liked to hide behind the spirit beast army, trying its best to avoid fighting Song Song Qingming alone. Basically, as long as Song Song Qingming did not appear, the White Lion Beast King also did not dare to show its face casually, fearing that it would suffer a secret loss from Song Song Qingming.
It was precisely because he knew the White Lion Beast King's cautious personality that, in order to force this cunning Beast King to appear on its own initiative, Song Song Qingming came up and bullied the small, specifically looking for trouble with those Foundation Establishment spirit beasts. He also knew that the other side could not sit idly by and watch him, a Golden Core cultivator, kill everywhere on the battlefield.
Seeing that Song Song Qingming had already appeared, the White Lion Beast King naturally would not shrink back; otherwise, if Song Song Qingming continued to make trouble, the morale of the spirit beast army under its command would soon be affected, thereby falling into a disadvantage.
When old rivals met, Song Song Qingming naturally would not be polite. With a movement of cyan spiritual light in his hands, the "Cyan Willow Sword," which was already shining brightly before him, rushed toward the White Lion Beast King's face like lightning.
Facing the magic treasure attack in Song Song Qingming's hand, the White Lion Beast King had also long been very familiar with it. It opened its big mouth and quickly gathered a white thunder light, blocking the "Cyan Willow Sword" that flew before it.
However, before it wanted to counterattack, Song Song Qingming had already actively flashed to the side of the White Lion Beast King. The "Five Elements Divine Light Mirror," which had already turned into five-colored spiritual light before him, emitted a dazzling light again, shooting more than a dozen powerful light swords toward the White Lion Beast King from all directions.
Seeing this, the White Lion Beast King had no time to dodge and could only top up its body-protecting aura to take Song Song Qingming's attack head-on. Although it blocked most of the attacks, its body was still hit by the spiritual light emitted by Song Song Qingming's full-power control of the magic treasure, leaving several bloodstains.
Seeing that the "Cyan Willow Sword" in Song Song Qingming's hand was gradually disappearing in mid-air, and the next wave of attacks was coming to it, the White Lion Beast King quickly spat out the inner core in its body. Relying on the golden light emitted from the inner core, it forced the "Cyan Willow Sword," which was wrapped in invisible shield light, out from the side in mid-air.
After blocking the White Lion Beast King's fierce attack with the "Five Elements Divine Light Mirror," Song Song Qingming saw that he had already fallen into a disadvantage, so he directly retreated from the side of the battlefield, wanting to take a detour from the side to meet with the cultivator army in the rear.
Seeing that his path ahead was blocked and the pursuers in the rear were coming, Song Song Qingming did not hesitate for long and decisively chose to turn around and change direction, wanting to escape directly back to the mountain-protecting formation of Jinshan Market in the rear.
Having dealt with Song Song Qingming for so long, the White Lion Beast King naturally saw his intention immediately. Before Song Song Qingming had walked far, the White Lion Beast King had already flashed its figure one step ahead and intercepted Song Song Qingming.
Before Song Song Qingming could put away the surprised expression on his face, a powerful thunderbolt had already quickly gathered on the White Lion Beast King's head and struck him directly. At the same time, several second-tier spirit beasts that were pursuing Song Song Qingming also immediately followed and chased over.
This time, Song Song Qingming did not probe each other first like before, but came up and fought for his life with full firepower. The White Lion Beast King was also caught off guard for a moment and suffered a slight secret loss.
After blocking this attack from Song Song Qingming, the White Lion Beast King roared angrily and quickly summoned several late-stage Foundation Establishment second-tier spirit beasts nearby to come over and help fight.
After fighting for his life to block this attack from the White Lion Beast King, the color on the "Five Elements Divine Light Mirror," this natal magic treasure, dimmed slightly. After the natal magic treasure appeared damaged, the corner of Song Song Qingming's mouth also followed and overflowed with a trace of blood.
With the help of several late-stage Foundation Establishment spirit beasts, the White Lion Beast King immediately reversed the passive situation of being beaten just now, gradually turning to occupy the upper hand, and forced Song Song Qingming to the edge of the battlefield.
In order to quickly break away and retreat back to the market formation, Song Song Qingming did not even have time to dodge this sharp attack from the White Lion Beast King behind him, and directly relied on the "Five Elements Divine Light Mirror" to take it head-on.
Seeing the White Lion Beast King that suddenly appeared in front of him, Song Song Qingming also immediately revealed a trace of surprise on his face. According to the experience of the previous few duels, the White Lion Beast King almost never actively left the spirit beasts beside it to pursue him alone. He did not expect that this time, he just revealed a slight flaw, and the White Lion Beast King immediately took advantage of the situation and entangled him.
Seeing that Song Song Qingming had already fallen into a disadvantage and wanted to escape back to Jinshan Market, the White Lion Beast King was happy in its heart and hurriedly stepped on the escape light to chase after him.
Song Song Qingyu and the others far away on the battlefield saw that Song Song Qingming was not only surrounded by the White Lion Beast King with numerous spirit beasts, but also injured. Song Song Qingyu and the others were also somewhat anxious and wanted to break away from the battlefield to support Song Song Qingming.
It was just that they were already on the battlefield, and everyone had been entangled by their respective opponents. Wanting to break away quickly to support Song Song Qingming was also a case of having the heart but not the power, and they were anxious. For a time, they couldn't come over at all.
With several powerful second-tier spirit beasts helping by its side, the White Lion Beast King's guard against Song Song Qingming also weakened a lot. Seeing that it had finally forced its old rival Song Song Qingming into such a wretched state, the White Lion Beast King naturally did not want to let go of this great opportunity to heavily injure him.
The spirit beast army and the Jinshan Market cultivators had been in a stalemate for more than half a year. The two Golden Core combat forces leading the two sides in this battle were actually what determined the balance of victory for the entire great battle.
Whether it was Song Song Qingming or the White Lion Beast King, as long as they could kill or heavily injure their opponent, forcing the opponent's highest combat power to withdraw from the battlefield, then the remainder would inevitably be the final winner of this great battle.
The White Lion Beast King knew to grasp this point, and Song Song Qingming naturally knew it very well in his heart. The reason why he took the risk to lure the White Lion Beast King out of the spirit beast army was precisely for the huge lion head on its neck.
Having just caught up for a moment, just as the White Lion Beast King was about to approach Song Song Qingming, a trace of somewhat familiar white mist suddenly appeared behind it.
Seeing this, the White Lion Beast King immediately stopped its steps. After looking carefully, it discovered that a magic array had appeared behind it, which was precisely the "Illusion Array" it had encountered before.
Seeing this magic array, and looking at Song Song Qingming, who had already turned around and was killing back toward its side not far away, the White Lion Beast King also quickly understood that it seemed to have been calculated by this hateful human before it again.
Knowing that it had fallen into a trap already set by the other side, the White Lion Beast King was not too panicked. While turning around and wanting to escape quickly, it quickly called out to the several second-tier spirit beasts not far behind it that were about to catch up and join it.
Although the White Lion Beast King was careless and fell into Song Song Qingming's calculations this time, it did not fall directly into the "Illusion Array." Its current position was not far from the battlefield beside it, and there were several second-tier spirit beasts pursuing it behind it. Even if it couldn't beat Song Song Qingming, it wouldn't be difficult to escape if it wanted to.
Just as the White Lion Beast King turned around and wanted to bypass the "Illusion Array" in the rear from the side, a huge golden puppet beast suddenly appeared in front of it in the sky, blocking the White Lion Beast King's path again.
There were also three small human figures standing above this golden puppet beast. It was precisely the "Golden-Winged Flying Tiger" puppet beast and Wu Wu Wenhai and the three others who controlled this third-tier puppet beast. They were the biggest surprise Song Song Qingming had prepared for the White Lion Beast King in this battle.
With its path blocked by the "Golden-Winged Flying Tiger" puppet beast in front and a strong opponent like Song Song Qingming in the rear, and the "Illusion Array" and the mountain-protecting formation of Jinshan Market on the left and right sides, the White Lion Beast King fell into a siege from all sides in just an instant.
What made the White Lion Beast King even more desperate was that the several second-tier spirit beasts that rushed over to support it accidentally broke into the white mist and were trapped in the array by the "Illusion Array," making it difficult for them to get out of trouble for a time.
After Song Song Qingming learned the news yesterday that Wu Wu Wenhai and the others had come to support with the "Golden-Winged Flying Tiger," he quickly decided on this plan to counterattack the spirit beast army.
Song Song Qingming's purpose was mainly aimed at the White Lion Beast King. If he didn't find a way to kill or heavily injure this Beast King, even if Jinshan Market could temporarily repel the spirit beast army and drive them out of Pingyang County, as long as the White Lion Beast King was there, the spirit beast army would still have the possibility of continuing to advance south to attack Jinshan.
If that were the case, then even if Song Song Qingming led the Jinshan Market cultivators to win this great battle, in the end, they would definitely not be able to get much of a result, and it could only be considered a temporary resolution of the crisis, still unable to completely end this spirit beast turmoil.
As long as the White Lion Beast King still had the ability to advance south, there would always be a huge hidden danger north of Jinshan Market. This was also equivalent to always having a huge nail buried beside him, and Song Song Qingming would definitely be unable to free himself to leave Jinshan Market at will by then.
Now that the situation on other battlefields in the State of Wei was very critical, once the sect issued a decree to transfer Song Song Qingming to support Mount Guiyun Market, without a Golden Core cultivator sitting in Jinshan Market, if the White Lion Beast King attacked again, Pingyang County and even the entire Jiangling County would still fall into a huge crisis.
After making up his mind, Song Song Qingming immediately formulated this decapitation plan, letting Huang Huang Siyuan and Wu Wu Wenhai and the others bring the "Golden-Winged Flying Tiger" to cooperate with him in surrounding and killing the White Lion Beast King.
The White Lion Beast King's strength was not as good as Song Song Qingming's to begin with, and now with the help of the "Golden-Winged Flying Tiger" puppet beast, under the pincer attack from both sides, the White Lion Beast King was soon beaten into retreat.
Wanting to break away from the entanglement of Song Song Qingming and the others to escape, the White Lion Beast King, now trapped in a siege, had no way out everywhere and could only let out bursts of desperate roars, loudly calling for the spirit beasts approaching here to come and help.
