Jin didn't hesitate at all as he threw out his spatial law blades at the two King Beasts in front of him.
The two King Beasts didn't dare look down on these spatial law blades because they were made with spatial law. Spatial law was a special law and possession of this special law deemed one as an Abnormal.
Would a special law that needed its own category be weak?
Of course not!
Even though they were a realm above Jin, they didn't dare look down on him since they knew that with the power of his law, he would be able to easily cut through their defenses.
Both of these King Beasts moved in different directions, avoiding the spatial law blades that Jin had thrown at them. However, they didn't stop there as they had moved forward while dodging these spatial law blades, heading right at Jin.
Both of these King Beasts prepared their claws to attack Jin, but before they could even reach him, there was a black mass of energy that came up to cover Jin. Before they could approach, Jin had already disappeared into the ground where the dark energy had come out of.
As subordinates of the Shadow Lord, naturally these King Beasts were familiar with the shadow laws and it didn't take them long to recognize the owner of these shadow laws.
Among the various subordinates of the Shadow Lord, Jin and Yin were quite famous mainly because of Jin's spatial laws and his single mutation.
Even though all of them were King Beasts, only Jin had a single mutation. The two King Beasts that he was facing were just normal King Beasts.
Mutated beasts were rare since it meant that the beast would have to either take the divine blood from another beast to mutate or purify their bloodline enough to naturally generate it.
Mutated beasts were much stronger than normal beasts, so it was hard to fulfil the first condition. As for the second method, that was even harder because divine blood was the pinnacle of a beast's bloodline, how could it be easy to refine?
Then there was Jin with both the spatial law and a single mutation, which made him countless times stronger than beasts at the same level.
He was one of the prize gains of the Shadow Lord, one that he wanted to groom.
When they had heard from the Shadow Lord that he had been lost in this lower realm, they couldn't help being shocked by this since they never thought that someone who had been trained by the Shadow Lord personally would fall in this lower realm. After all, the only way to remove the bit of law that was stuck in their heart was either by death or by force.
No one believed that Jin would be able to remove it by force since that bit of energy came from the Shadow Lord himself. There was no need to mention the difference in cultivation between them.
So the only option that was left was that he was dead.
While it was unlikely, it was still more likely than him breaking the bind of the Shadow Lord.
But now that they saw Jin and Yin in front of them, they realized that they had found some way to eliminate the bind of the Shadow Lord and escaped to this lower realm.
Still, the two King Beasts smiled when they realized this fact.
If they were to capture these two and send them back to the Shadow Lord, they would definitely be rewarded by the Shadow Lord.
Even if Jin was strong, he could only take one of the King Beasts on easily. Since there were two of them, this made it much harder for him to fight.
As for Yin, he was only in the low Fragmented Soul Realm and he wasn't a mutated beast or possessed a special law, so all he could do was support Jin.
These two King Beasts were both predators, so they were both quite powerful with their attacks. One was a wolf that bit with its fangs and the other was a tiger that slashed with its claws.
Even if Jin's defense were powerful because of the spatial laws, it still couldn't keep up under the attacks of these two King Beasts. As he condensed more and more spatial law barriers, his life energy was slowly being drained away.
Slowly but surely, Jin was pushed back by the two of them, giving up more and more ground until he was pushed right up against the wall.
The two King Beasts looked at each other and with a nod, they jumped out at the same time. Both of them went in a separate direction, attacking Jin with a two pronged attack.
Jin tried to condense two spatial law barriers, but he only had enough life energy for a single one. Yin saw that Jin didn't have enough spatial energy, so he immediately came forward and gathered all his shadow laws to obstruct the tiger whose attack Jin couldn't block.
However, the tiger as a subordinate of the Shadow Lord was naturally familiar with this shadow law, so it easily crushed through this haze, knocking Yin away before heading right at Jin.
The claws of the tiger were raised and were about to fall down on Jin when a skeleton suddenly appeared out of the ground. The skeleton took the claw with its skull head on, but the skull didn't crack under the force of the claw.
As it took this hit, the skeleton also came forward to hug the tiger, keeping it in place, making it unable to move.
The tiger was shocked by this and landed a few more claw strikes on the skeleton, but no matter where the tiger hit the skeleton on its body that was as dark as obsidian, it couldn't damage it at all. It was just helplessly being held by the skeleton.
Jin saw this and instead of revealing a look of joy like he should have, he had a bitter smile on his face.
He knew that since this skeleton appeared, it meant that he had failed.
The wolf noticed the skeleton wrapping up its comrade and it immediately came forward to bite at the skeleton, but there was another skeleton that appeared out of the ground and hugged the wolf as well.
If these two King Beasts had been at full strength, they would have been able to break free of these skeletons, but they had to exhaust quite a bit of their life energy to break through Jin's defenses. They could only helplessly let themselves be held by those skeletons.
A figure floated down off the wall, landing by Jin and Yin's side.
When Jin and Yin saw this figure, they suppressed the desire inside them to run away and came forward to greet him. Both of them cupped their hands and gave a bow as they said, "Master."
Momonga looked over his work and shook his head as he said, "You two failed, but you already knew that. Do you know why you failed?"
Jin and Yin looked at each other and could see the bitter looks in each other's eyes.
"Isn't it because their cultivations were higher than ours?"
Seeing that neither was willing to say a thing, Momonga just shook his head and said, "If you two were to work together instead of just having Yin support Jin, you could have used your mobility to attack these beasts and trap them, making them unable to fight back. They might have power, but you two have speed on your side."
Jin and Yin lowered their heads and revealed bitter smiles.
Momonga paused for a second before saying, "Still, considering the fact that their cultivations were higher than yours, it is an accomplishment to be able to drain their life energy by this much." As he said this, Jin and Yin had hopeful gazes appear in their eyes. "But…"
The moment they heard the 'but', it was like they had fallen down from heaven to hell.
"...You still failed your assignment, so you have to be punished in the end. I guess it's back to basic training for the two of you."
The thing that they had been dreading the most finally came. It was Momonga's training again.
They thought that they had finally been free from this, but now it seemed like they would have to start from the beginning.
Momonga's training was actually even worse than Lin Fan's training. If fact, they wished that they could die over and over again, it would still be much better than Momonga's training.
Momonga ignored the two of them and looked over at the trapped beasts.
The two trapped King Beasts looked at Momonga with a trace of fear in their eyes. They could sense the danger that was coming from this young looking man in white, but they couldn't understand where it came from.
The wolf King Beast was much more sly than the tiger King Beast, so it said, "We're willing to serve you like Jin and Yin if you are willing to let us go."
The tiger King Beast was in a daze for a second before nodding along with the wolf King Beast.
But Momonga didn't even care about any of this as he turned back to say to Jin and Yin, "Finish them and take their cores, it'll help your cultivation." Then without another word, he jumped right back onto the wall.
Jin and Yin turned back to the wolf and tiger King Beasts with vicious looks in their eyes.
They wouldn't show any mercy to these two who had sent them back to training.
Normally these two King Beasts would be the predator, but now they could only be the prey...
