Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Mo Wen was certain that even a peak Golden Elixir realm warrior would not be able to dodge such an attack. The force was way more terrifying than that generated by a martial arts warrior. One strike alone would pulverize a person.
The power of the enormous crocodile was even stronger than that of the snake king whom Mo Wen had t earlier. It was possible that even soone as powerful as Gao Hanshan would not be able to hold his own against such as beast.
Mo Wen’s body imdiately tightened as he focused his energy. If he was not careful, he could easily find himself annihilated. He had not expected to be so unlucky to et a monstrous beast at the level of a beast king.
He realized his mistake: he had stayed in the sa spot for too long and had killed many monstrous beasts. The fire domain had also recently been the site of a great deal of conflict, which was another reason he had attracted a beast king. In normal circumstances, seeing such a beast was quite a rare occurrence.
A terrifying aura burst forth from Mo Wen’s body. It was double that of his usual power. The Glory of Thunder had taken his powers to another level. His body hurtled toward and he successfully broke through the restraints that the Giant Crocodile Beast King had placed on him. He took off from the tiny island.
There was a loud crash and red light flashed around the island. The place that he had just been standing disappeared in front of Mo Wen’s eyes. In an instant, the whole area, of more than a hundred square ters, was turned to dust. The sea of lava was not hot enough to lt these rocks but the attack of the Giant Crocodile Beast King made them seem fragile.
Mo Wen did not even stop to think before turning away to flee. It was fortunate that he was wearing the straw cape which was a spiritual weapon. His flying speed was about the sa as a warrior at the pinnacle of the Golden Elixir realm. In just a few monts he was able to travel a few hundred ters.
“You’re just a little human. How dare you flee from I, the king? You’re seeking death.”
The Giant Crocodile Monstrous Beast erged from the depths of the lava sea. The beast was gargantuan. It must have been at least 200 ters long.
Even though they lived in the fire domain, the fire domain beast kings all spoke the language of humans fluently. It was evident that they had paid a lot of attention to the human race during their long lives.
There was a flash of dark red light. The tail of the Giant Crocodile Monstrous Beast was about 100 ters long and as broad as a wide stone pillar. It rose nacingly into the air and swept forcefully at Mo Wen. An extrely hot fla burned on the tail, lighting the sky red as it moved through the air.
A suffocating hot air ca at Mo Wen. The terrifying pressure almost knocked Mo Wen off his feet even before the tail got close to him.
The strength of the beast kings in the fire domain was terrifying and was beyond even that of martial arts grandmasters. It would be impossible for martial arts grandmasters to fight against these beast kings if they did not use any spiritual weapons or profound level weapons.
Mo Wen felt that he had been cursed with rotten luck since arriving in the fire domain. He seed to keep encountering vicious attacks from one warrior after another. And now, he had encountered a beast king.
It was definitely more difficult to flee from a beast king than to escape from a martial arts grandmaster. Mo Wen did not even have the chance to use the Invisible Talisman because the beast king’s sense of perception was a billion tis more sensitive than a human being in the lava sea. The Giant Crocodile Beast King would definitely quickly sense his position the mont before he activated the Invisible Talisman.
Even if he managed to make himself invisible, it would be difficult for him to escape.
The Glory of Wind!
Mo Wen’s figure twisted and he disappeared. He moved like a breeze that dissipated on the spot. He was just in ti. The Giant Crocodile Beast King’s tail swept at exactly the spot he had been, missing him by monts. The tail slamd down viciously into the magma.
There was a loud crash.
The force of the tail overturned the lava sea. A chasm that was several thousand ters long and more than a hundred ters wide appeared on the surface of the sea of lava. It was also several hundred ters deep. The force that the beast was able to generate was shocking, as powerful as heaven.
Huge jets of lava burst into the air, reaching a height of several hundred ters before they splashed back down. It was as if there was a rainstorm of magma.
So of the monstrous beasts living nearby were killed by the residual shock, while others were left unconscious. The attack of the Giant Crocodile Beast King had caused an enormous amount of damage.
There was a gentle breeze and Mo Wen appeared two hundred ters away. He looked at the scene in front of him, feeling like a witness to so terrible natural disaster. He felt afraid. He would have died under that tail if it had not been for the amazing powers of the Glory of Wind.
Roar!
There was a loud roar. The Giant Crocodile Beast King had not expected that the human youth would be able to dodge both its attacks. This was an embarrassnt to the beast king. The fact that it could not defeat a junior human warrior was enough to sha it.
The Giant Crocodile Beast King was enraged. Rays of red light spread out from its body as a petrifying power built up. The fire domain around the beast was affected by it as well, and the already high temperatures started to climb. Under the aura of the Giant Crocodile Beast King, the surrounding temperatures rose by almost a hundred tis.
The rocks that had not lted in the sea of lava began to do so. They turned into magma and disappeared. The fire attribute monstrous beasts living in the sea of lava jumped out. They had been boiled alive by the terrifying heat.
Mo Wen’s expression changed. He began to sweat profusely, his perspiration soaking through his shirt in re monts. It felt as if there was a fire burning inside his body. If this continued, he might turn into a dried corpse. He might even self-ignite.
The Giant Crocodile Beast King was terrifying. Luckily, he had cultivated in the skills of the fire attribute. The Nine Yang Divine Technique was the strongest and most Yang mantra in the world. Without it, he would not be able to withstand the heat.
Mo Wen flicked his wrist and a black crystal appeared in his hand. It was the Dark Soul Pearl.
He had not used the Dark Soul Pearl in the attacks on him before because he knew of its value. It was even more valuable than the spiritual fire to martial arts grandmasters. Even though one could only beco an underworld immortal cultivator should they use the Dark Soul Pearl to beco an immortal, the probability of successfully becoming an immortal when using it was higher than using any other treasures.
It was the most valuable treasure to so martial arts grandmasters.
The Dark Soul Pearl slowly released rays of black light. It blocked the heat from the Giant Crocodile Beat King completely, enveloping Mo Wen in cold air. The heat no longer affected Mo Wen.
“Hm?” The Giant Crocodile Beast King humd questioningly Even though it was just a hum, it was as loud as thunder to Mo Wen. “You’ve got so skills.” The Giant Crocodile Beast King nodded and actually looked at Mo Wen approvingly. The young human warrior had blocked its attack several tis: he was definitely no weakling.
The heat that the Giant Crocodile Beast King had released was no ordinary heat. The creature had cultivated the heat that it had been born with for more than a million years. Even though its heat was not comparable to the spiritual fire, it was still an extrely strong attack skill. The heat greatly increased the power of the Giant Crocodile Beast King while decreasing its enemies’ strength. The beast king of the fire domain was astonished to realize that the youth was not affected by the heat.
“You must be a genius among human warriors. You are the lynchpin of the next generation of powerhouses. Soone like you should definitely die!
There was a vicious glint in the Giant Crocodile Beast King’s eyes that warned of impending death. The beast had detested humans ever since martial arts powerhouses had started to frequently intrude into the fire domain, disrupting the peace of the region. The Giant Crocodile Beast King could foresee that soone like Mo Wen would beco a powerful enemy in the future.
A brilliant red light slowly gathered in the fire domain beast king’s mouth. The glaring ball of red light looked like a miniature sun. The Giant Crocodile Beast King slowly opened its mouth. The ball of red light grew bigger and bigger and the light grew more and more brilliant.
Even though it was the beast king of the fire region, the gaze of the giant crocodile grew grave. It looked as if it could not bear to attack.
Mo Wen’s body stiffened as he floated in mid-air. A terrifying pressure rushed forth from all around. The terrifying aura made him shudder and he grew wary as if he could sense death approaching.
Mo Wen smiled bitterly. He was too weak right now to defend himself against a creature like the beast king. The beast king was definitely a tip-top existence among monstrous beast. If the creature made just one more stride forward it would beco a legendary demon.
However, this was not an easy task. Even after cultivating for a hundred million years, the probability of becoming a demon was very slight. It was said that inheritance was the crucial factor in allowing monstrous beasts to beco demons. If their blood did not et the criteria it would be very difficult for them to beco a demon. Likewise, so monstrous beasts with noble blood could beco demons due to lucky circumstances even if their cultivation levels were not high.
About half of the seven major beast kings in the fire domain had cultivated for thousands of years, but becoming a demon was rare.
Mo Wen sighed and flicked his wrist. The Thousand Mile Talisman appeared in his hand. He could not think of any other way to escape other than by using it.
Just then a strange sound erged from the sea of lava, just as the Giant Crocodile Beast King was about to attack Mo Wen with all its might. The noise caught Mo Wen by surprise. It sounded like a sea snail, but also like a monstrous beast singing.
The sound slowly erged from the sea of lava, producing a ripple effect which stretched out far and wide. The distance it spread out for could not be determined. It felt as if the entire fire domain was enshrouded by the sound.
The Giant Crocodile Beast King’s expression changed drastically when it heard the sound. Whatever the sound ant, it was clearly a matter of huge importance. The creature abandoned Mo Wen and dove into the sea of lava, disappearing in the blink of an eye. The beast king moved astonishingly quickly despite its vast size.
Mo Wen, who had been about to activate the Thousand Mile Talisman, stopped in his tracks. He looked with surprise in the direction where the Giant Crocodile Beast King left. Confusion was evident in his eyes as he contemplated what had just happened. For the beast king to disappear so quickly, sothing huge must have happened.
Mo Wen looked down as he pondered the matter. Then, his eyes brightened. Could it be! Did it have sothing to do with the spiritual fire?
The current situation suggested that the spiritual fire must have sothing to do with the Giant Crocodile Beast King becoming so flustered. From how the snake king had behaved earlier, he could see that the spiritual fire was very important to this fire domain. The seven beast kings worked together to protect it.
“They must have found the spiritual fire.”
Mo Wen’s expression flickered before he gritted his teeth. He turned to give chase to the Giant Crocodile Beast King.
