Chapter 139 Rescue in Crisis

Finally, under Wu Ren's furious gaze, the Candle Flame Beast opened its blood-red maw, which was big enough to swallow an elephant, and bit down hard on the unconscious Ying Yue without hesitation!

The sharp fangs gleamed with a cold light, as if they would tear Ying Yue to shreds in an instant.

Such a cruel and bloody scene tore at Wu Ren's heart; he simply couldn't bear to look at it and could only close his eyes tightly in anguish...

Close, closer!

Just as the giant mouth of the Candle Flame Beast was only ten centimeters away from Ying Yue, suddenly, a dazzling spiritual energy struck its head with lightning speed.

With a loud "bang," the Candle Flame Beast was struck hard!

A wave of excruciating pain washed over it, causing it to involuntarily let out a deafening roar: "Roar...!"

The roar echoed through the sky, startling the birds and beasts around, who scattered and fled in all directions.

Before the Candle Flame Beast could recover from the sudden attack, countless sharp spiritual energy attacks rained down on it.

These attacks were as dense and fierce as a storm, each strike containing immense power.

In an instant, a series of earth-shattering explosions erupted in the air: "Boom!"

The powerful shockwave uprooted the surrounding trees and caused the ground to tremble violently, as if an earthquake had occurred.

The Candle Flame Beast was caught off guard by this sudden attack.

Its massive body was forced back by the violent energy impact, and excruciating pain kept assaulting it.

The excruciating pain ignited a raging fury within it, and for a moment, the entire forest echoed with the Candleflame Beast's uncontrollable roar.

The voice was filled with endless resentment and murderous intent, sending chills down one's spine.

Wu Ren was originally immersed in deep despair and fear, but this sudden change abruptly woke him up.

He opened his eyes abruptly as if grasping at a straw, trying to see the source of the attack.

When his gaze first fell upon that familiar gray spiritual energy, an indescribable joy instantly welled up in his heart, making him extremely excited.

Just then, a flash of inspiration struck me, and I suddenly thought of something.

He opened his throat and shouted at the top of his lungs, "Watch out! It's a Candle Flame Beast, there are two of them!"

The sudden shout shattered the silence, even startling the other Candle Flame Beast that was preparing to attack.

However, after only a brief moment of shock, the Candle Flame Beast quickly recovered and demonstrated its powerful adaptability.

Its muscles tensed, and it suddenly leaped forward, its entire body shooting out like an arrow.

Just as it leaped into the air, an astonishing scene unfolded—its lion-shaped body underwent a dramatic transformation in the blink of an eye, turning into an enormous gorilla.

Facing the endless surge of gray spiritual energy, the Candle Flame Beast, which had transformed into a gorilla, showed no fear.

It raised its thick, powerful arm high, and then threw a punch with overwhelming force.

In an instant, the wind from the fist howled and collided violently with the gray spiritual energy.

"Rumble..."

With a deafening roar, a dazzling light burst forth from the point of impact, and intense energy waves swept outwards like a raging torrent.

A massive shockwave, carrying boundless power, surged forth with overwhelming force, sending sand and stones flying and destroying vegetation wherever it passed.

The gray spiritual energy was instantly shattered upon clashing with the Candle Flame Beast's fierce and unparalleled fist.

The force of the Candle Flame Beast's fist only paused briefly before slamming heavily onto the ground with unstoppable momentum.

The solid earth was instantly blasted into a bottomless crater by this earth-shattering punch!

The earth trembled violently, as if it could not withstand such a terrifying impact.

The immense, scattered power spread outwards, instantly creating a dense network of spiderweb-like cracks in the ground.

Countless dust and pebbles were blasted into the air, forming a huge cloud of smoke that blotted out the sun.

The immense force of the attack sent Kuang Zheng flying into the thick smoke and dust, and the powerful impact caused a surge of emotion within him.

The Candle Flame Beast lived up to its reputation as an invincible behemoth that once dominated the wilderness; it was injured by its opponent in just one encounter.

However, Kuang Zheng showed no displeasure at this moment; instead, his eyes revealed joy.

He paused for a moment, then transformed into a ghostly black shadow and vanished instantly into the thick dust and fog.

The speed was beyond imagination.

In the blink of an eye, the dark figure had rushed to Ying Yue's side, who was still unconscious.

He scooped Ying Yue up in his arms, then suddenly turned in mid-air, changing direction and shooting towards Wu Ren who was not far away without stopping.

Relying on his previous memories and taking advantage of the dust and smoke, Kuang Zheng quickly made his way to Wu Ren's side.

With a swift movement, he scooped up his seriously injured teammate and, without the slightest hesitation, sped off into the distance without looking back.

Kuang Zheng's grasp of timing was simply terrifying; every action and every decision was precise to the millimeter.

He knew he was no match for the Flame Beast, so he had no intention of fighting it from the start.

Instead, they deliberately created chaos, then used the massive dust storms generated by the battle as cover to rescue their teammates.

After succeeding, without the slightest hesitation, he and his two teammates escaped to the edge of the jungle in the blink of an eye, about to disappear from sight.

It turned out that Kuang Zheng had just seen the two figures the moment the Candle Flame Beast launched its sneak attack, but it was too late to warn them.

Feeling that the Candle Flame Beast was too powerful, he could neither help it nor even offer a word of warning.

Because in this way, the three of them could very likely be wiped out.

Keep in mind that the other Candle Flame Beast was still standing there without making a move!

Left with no other choice, he had to suppress the surging worry in his heart and try his best to conceal his aura.

When he witnessed Ying Yue being ambushed and her life hanging in the balance, Kuang Zheng's anger was instantly ignited, almost bursting out of his chest.

He trembled all over, his fists clenched, wishing he could rush out immediately and engage in a life-or-death battle with the Candle Flame Beast.

But a sliver of reason kept warning him that if he acted rashly at this moment, he would not only fail to save Ying Yue and Wu Ren, but would also plunge everyone into an abyss of no return.

After all, with his current strength, he was no match for the powerful peak fourth-level Candle Flame Beast, let alone face two at the same time.

Therefore, Kuang Zheng could only grit his teeth, suppress his overwhelming anger and worry, and wait patiently for the best opportunity to strike.

Time passed second by second, and every moment was like hellish torture.

This brief moment felt as long as a year.

When he saw that Wu Ren was also seriously injured, his eyes were filled with rage.

But his remaining rationality finally allowed him to endure it.

We still need to wait for the right opportunity!

Finally, after Wu Ren and Ying Yue both fell, the Candle Flame Beast believed that the situation was under control and gradually lowered its guard.

One of them strolled leisurely up to Ying Yue, looking mockingly at Wu Ren, whose eyes were bloodshot.

It seemed to enjoy the prey's struggle before death, a struggle that brought it immense joy and relaxation.

"It's now!!"

Kuang Zheng, who had been observing from the shadows, keenly seized this fleeting opportunity. He let out a low shout, and his spiritual power erupted instantly. He continuously bombarded the Candle Flame Beast with the gaping maw with spiritual energy, which led to the breathtaking scene at the beginning.
