Yin Beasts were few in number. However, some Yin Beasts were recorded in the Daxia Empire's history for the sole reason that they hadn't been killed despite multiple appearances.
This meant that the Yin Beast was powerful enough to survive even after a team of soldiers had pursued it on countless occasions. That alone was a testament to the Yin Beast's strength.
So, for such Yin Beasts, a name was given by the Empire in reverence to their might and ability to survive. There weren't many Yin Beasts that reached such a state. After all, before they gained such a status, they had to achieve a certain feat.
Killing an Imperial Meister.
An Imperial Arms possessed enough power to almost destroy a Nightmare. No Yin Beast was capable of surviving that. However, if one survived such an encounter and even managed to kill the Imperial Meister, it meant it was in a class of its own.
Such Yin Beasts were given names, dictating their fearsome might.
Among them was the Yin Beast before them, known as one of the strongest Yin Beasts to date in the Daxia Empire's history of named Yin Beasts. After all, the number of Imperial Meisters it had killed had reached a frightening number.
12 Imperial Meisters!
It was a terrifying foe, one that had lived for more than two centuries, having even learned the languages and customs of the humans in this duration. It was a walking disaster.
"Mother! This Yin Beast is the Yin Dragon!" Krune shouted in his mind.
"I'm aware!" Daxia Ting responded. "If you wish to fight against the Demon, you should learn to take on such an opponent. But don't worry. I've also dispatched four Imperial Meisters to assist you. So, you won't have to worry."
"When will they arrive?" Krune asked.
"Based on their speed, the first one would arrive in a couple of minutes. The last of them would arrive twenty minutes later. So, only engage after that," Daxia Ting said. Even though her voice was plain, Krune was able to detect worry in her.
She had thought his Cloud Whale was only able to fly slowly. Even though Krune hadn't gone at full speed, it still went over her calculations.
In theory, she had planned for the Imperial Meisters to arrive first to plan and strategize while the trio would arrive last and join the battle.
"It's fine. We'll be careful." Krune replied through telepathy before turning around, whispering to the two Imperial Warlocks, "Four Imperial Meisters have been dispatched. The first of them would arrive after two minutes while it would take twenty minutes for the last of them to arrive."
"That's a lot of time." Wang Hao frowned, wondering if he would be able to last that long once they began to fight.
"Watch out!" Chen Xue shouted as Krune reacted promptly, causing the air currents surrounding the Cloud Whale to turn violent as they deflected a boulder flying their way. But despite that, the boulder managed to touch the Cloud Whale, knocking the three over from the momentum.
"Tch!" Krune clicked his tongue, watching the Yin Dragon grin while glaring at him. Even though he behaved flustered, he was in actuality as calm as he could be. After all, even though they fell off the Cloud Whale, Wang Hao and Chen Xue were Imperial Warlocks.
They would be fine with this fall.
In response, as he fell towards the ground, through his Sonic Radar, Krune watched the eyes of the Yin Dragon trail towards him, looking like it would charge at him the moment he landed on the ground.
One of the documented abilities of the Yin Dragon was its charging ability. It was capable of accelerating from zero to a horse's top speed in a second. On top of that, it was a mobile opponent, able to twist and turn like a snake.
That's why it was a dangerous opponent to face against. Even a normal Yin Beast's flesh was capable of deflecting blades, not to mention the scales of the Yin Dragon that was barely damaged even under fire from an Imperial Arms.
This was the reason it was feared and had earned its name as the Yin Dragon.
While Krune was three meters above ground, the Yin Beast began to charge at him.
Then again, now that its attention was on him, the Cloud Whale aimed at it, unleashing an Air Needle.
The Air Needle slammed into the Yin Dragon, piercing through the scale that it impacted upon. However, it didn't damage beyond that as Krune frowned, making the Cloud Whale turn constantly as the Air Needle trailed over the Yin Dragon's body, making a mild depression all over its body.
It was no different from a scratch mark, with the initial point of impact sporting a scale-deep wound.
'That's one hard bastard.' Cursing, Krune deactivated his Cloud Whale, activating it within himself before taking flight. Wang Hao and Chen Xue also summoned their wings, flapping them to remain in the air.
"What do we do now?" Wang Hao asked. "Even your Air Needle hasn't damaged it much."
"What else can we do?" Krune sighed in response. "Let's slam attacks on it and inflict enough damage until it dies. That's the only option. Let me first fire enough Air Needles at it from afar. It won't consume any of my energy to do so."
"Wang Hao, will you be able to carry me?" Krune asked.
"Of course." Wang Hao nodded before carrying Krune as he and Chen Xue flapped their wings, increasing their altitude.
Condensing his Cloud Whale, Krune watched as it began to suck in the surrounding air, condensing it within its body before unleashing a second Air Needle.
Chen Xue landed on its horn, grabbing it using her hands as she pushed it accordingly, ensuring the Cloud Whale turned fast enough to constantly keep the Air Needle focused on the Yin Dragon.
"Is that all?" The Yin Dragon laughed as its mouth clamped upon a soldier's corpse. Its body coiled as its top half spun around, contracting in response before it released, like a taut bowstring being released.
The soldier's corpse flew into the air, slamming into the Cloud Whale that wasn't able to evade on time, sending it flying away.
Grunting in response, Krune noticed that a bit of his stamina had been consumed to recover the Cloud Whale's damage, shouting, "Damn it! I'll kill this annoying turtle!"
