After all, who doesn’t have some opportunities?
Just at this moment, another Flying Centipede had already reached Chen Fan, its speed not decreasing but increasing, charging straight at him.
"Clang!"
A crisp sound rang out.
Chen Fan remained standing there, entirely unmovable.
The Flying Centipede flew backward a hundred meters away, not knowing how many trees it broke, dragging a gully on the ground.
However, its head was very hard; the second it fell to the ground, it acted like nothing had happened, once again charging aggressively at Chen Fan.
Chen Fan appeared oblivious, seizing the opportunity to strike the injured Flying Centipede in the distance once again!
The latter immediately let out a mournful cry, its originally pitch-black, gleaming armor now completely shattered, with large amounts of green blood flowing from its wounds, dyeing the ground around it green.
"This guy’s life force is really tenacious."
Chen Fan exclaimed in his heart.
It took seven strikes from the Giant Spirit Hand to injure it severely.
To completely kill it, it would probably take one more strike.
Of course, if done so, the previous efforts would be in vain.
The next moment, he used the Beast Taming Technique again.
This time, the Flying Centipede stopped struggling; in an instant, Chen Fan felt something added to his mind, containing fear, pain, and resentment.
"It’s that Flying Centipede?"
Chen Fan understood.
The consciousness that appeared in his mind should be its.
Its fear and hatred towards him were normal, considering it was him who caused the severe injury, fearing another strike might completely kill it.
"Don’t be afraid, I have no ill intentions."
Chen Fan communicated with it mentally.
"I actually don’t want to hurt you, but you attacked first, didn’t you? Doing this is merely to give you some lessons, without the intent to take your life, don’t worry."
The Flying Centipede’s emotions stabilized, its hatred and fear lessened a bit.
"Isn’t that right?"
Chen Fan continued to comfort it: "If I wanted to kill you, would I waste so many words? You can rest here, I’ll come back to you later."
Now his True Qi in the body was almost depleted, enough for at most two or three uses of the Giant Spirit Hand.
Dealing with the second Flying Centipede wouldn’t be effective, better to seize the chance to go out, regulate breath and recover True Qi, then come back and control the remaining two Flying Centipedes.
As for this one, no worries.
Once controlled by the Beast Taming Technique, the life and death of the Demon Beast were at his will, naturally there was no fear of it not obeying his command when he returned.
"Boom!"
Another loud crash.
The other Flying Centipede collided with Chen Fan.
In just a few seconds, it hit over ten times, still unwilling to submit.
"Elder Wang! Leaving!"
Chen Fan shouted towards the sky.
"Alright!"
Elder Wang responded, running towards the exit.
"Whizz!"
"Whizz!"
The two, one after the other, passed through the entrance and reached the outside.
Inside the Secret Realm, the two Flying Centipedes looked at the exit, showing a human-like expression of fear.
Turned to see the tragic situation of their companion, roaring furiously.
"How’s it? Any effect?" Elder Wang asked breathlessly.
If Chen Fan hadn’t informed him earlier, he felt he couldn’t have held on for much longer.
"Made it."
Chen Fan laughed.
"Made it!"
Elder Wang’s breath hitched, "Really? You’ve successfully controlled that Flying Centipede?"
That was comparable to a Martial Artist in the Mid Stage of the Celestial Realm!
If by one’s side, in a one-on-one situation, summoning the Flying Centipede, the situation would instantly become a two-on-one.
"Don’t worry Elder Wang, you’ll know once we enter later."
Chen Fan smiled slightly, then said: "After we go back in, I need your help to hold off one, if both Flying Centipedes are controlled, the remaining one will be easy to deal with."
"Wha-what!"
Hearing this, Elder Wang gaped.
"You-you want to control all three Demon Beasts?"
"Yes."
Chen Fan said with a smile: "It’s rare to have this opportunity, it would be a pity not to try, besides if having them to guard Anshan City, I believe those Fierce Beasts coming from underground will be annihilated."
"True."
Elder Wang nodded.
Although that Flying Centipede was severely injured by Chen Fan, its foundation remained, even if unable to deal with Beast King-level Fierce Beasts, dealing with Commander-level Fierce Beasts would be easy?
As for Elite Level ones, they were mere fodder.
With the rich Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi in the Secret Realm, restoring its injuries in a few days would be no issue.
After all, it was a Demon Beast, with a special constitution, regenerate severed limbs, incomparable to Martial Artists.
"Alright, let’s sit and recover True Qi, once recovered we’ll head back in."
"Thank you, Elder Wang."
Chen Fan expressed gratitude.
If not for Elder Wang’s help, controlling all two remaining ones wouldn’t be impossible but much more troublesome.
With Elder Wang distracting one, he could focus more on dealing with the other one.
"What’s troublesome," Elder Wang waved his hand, "I’m just attracting fire, the most important part is your action, isn’t it? Besides, it’s my first time participating, feels pretty good."
And if you could control all three, the Treasure Medicine in their territory would all belong to you, no need to be cautious and leave with any movement."
"True."
Thinking this, Chen Fan’s heart filled with anticipation.
Indeed, his main purpose was for those Treasure Medicines that could boost Primordial True Qi.
As for additional aides, that was secondary.
Of course, killing them would be a waste, considering the current outbreak of Beast Tide, plenty of Fierce Beasts to kill, no longer needing to worry about Experience Points.
The two sat facing each other, regulating breath and recovering True Qi.
Meanwhile, in Anshan City.
Unlike the previous nights, tonight was eerily quiet, no roars of Fierce Beasts heard, and those that were originally wandering under the city walls, disappeared.
Many guards breathed a sigh of relief.
For the past nights, Fierce Beasts were wandering below, they dared not speak loudly, walking carefully, fearing to attract notice.
"Could it be the Fierce Beasts have retreated?"
Someone wondered.
It wasn’t unprecedented, at least the previous Beast Tides were like this.
Appearing inexplicably, and disappearing mysteriously.
"Impossible, seeing online other cities already submerged by Beast Tides, deaths unknown number, survivors fleeing to big cities, Beast Tides arriving at big city walls soon."
"Oh my god, Beast Tides are so terrifying now? Even medium cities can’t withstand?"
"What do you think? Sitting here chatting only because of Chairman Li of Awakened Association, alone resisted the last Beast Tide, or else we’d be in some Fierce Beast’s stomach, might be excrement now."
"Ugh!"
Around came a chorus of dry retching.
"Damn, must you say it so disgustingly?"
"Yeah, almost threw up dinner listening to you."
"Alright."
Nearby, a man looking like a captain gestured them to quiet down, saying: "Don’t be too happy, isn’t tonight too quiet? Unexpected normalcy must mean trouble, tonight might have issues."
"What? Tonight issues?"
"Impossible? Those Fierce Beasts walked away, they won’t return, right?"
