“Oh my god, this beast is so cheap,” Lin Fan muttered in disbelief, staring at the monstrous creature in the distance.
Just moments ago, when he had checked with his system, it had clearly shown the beast to be only at the peak of the Small Heaven Realm. But now, its power had suddenly surged.
Lin Fan knew his system was never wrong. Something must have been hiding the beast’s true strength.
The creature suddenly raised its head and let out a furious roar. It plunged its claws into its own body and tore its fur apart, sending tufts of hair flying in all directions.
Boom!
The sky and earth trembled as a beam of light enveloped the beast, its power surging rapidly.
Great Heaven Realm – Initial Stage.
Great Heaven Realm – Middle Stage.
…
Great Heaven Realm – Peak Stage.
In the sky, sixteen chains of divine law intertwined, crackling with thunder and tearing a massive hole in the void.
A humanoid beast?
Lin Fan watched calmly as the creature stood tall amidst the tide of beasts. This was the second humanoid beast he had ever seen. With four pairs of flame-like wings on its back and a colossal body hundreds of feet tall, it radiated an overwhelming aura that sent chills down the spines of all who beheld it.
“Roar!”
The humanoid beast roared, its sharp teeth seemingly slicing through the void. A pitch-black light began to gather in its mouth.
“This is bad. Its aura is at the peak of the Great Heaven Realm!” Old Mo howled in panic, immediately attempting to tear through space to escape.
But something even more terrifying happened.
The space around them had been sealed.
“This can’t be happening! I can’t die here!” Old Mo was now completely frantic. He had never imagined the beast could be this powerful—far beyond anything they could resist.
The cultivators hiding in the distance were already stunned speechless.
“Brother, we’re done for.”
“This tide of beasts is unstoppable. That humanoid beast’s aura is simply too overwhelming. Look at the ball of energy forming in its mouth—it looks terrifying.”
“Damn it, you’re still talking about this? We need to figure out how to escape! We’re caught in this too. Not only will the Longyuan Empire fall, but we’ll all be doomed as well.”
“Haha, the beast has sealed space. Look at that screen over there—we can’t run anymore.”
“Waaah! I, King of the Great Sword, Wang Wu, don’t want to die! I haven’t even seen blood on my blade yet!”
“I, Zhao Xiao Liu, still have my spear, but I’ve never experienced the peak of life with a dragon-like thrust! I can’t accept this!”
…
Lin Fan gazed at the beast with sixteen chains of divine law. In the Dongling Continent, this was a creature capable of sweeping across the heavens.
Yet he had never heard of such a beast before. It was strange—too strange.
This beast must not die. He had to capture it and interrogate it thoroughly.
Old Mo sat helplessly on the ground, his former dignity as a Great Heaven Realm expert completely gone. He recalled the bitter years of his cultivation journey—how many near-death experiences he had endured—until finally, at the age of a hundred, he had reached the Great Heaven Realm.
But now, everything was about to vanish, crushed beneath the tide of beasts, erased forever from Dongling.
Princess Longyuan stood motionless, her eyes fixed on the towering beast. Its blazing wings radiated intense heat.
The sixteen chains of divine law churned the heavens and earth, radiating an oppressive force that suffocated all who felt it, like waves crashing over them.
“Kid, are you regretting it now? We’re all going to die,” Old Mo shouted at Lin Fan, his voice filled with bitterness.
“Die? Princess Longyuan, I told you I’d help you stop this tide of beasts without losing a single soldier—and the price would be that item at your waist,” Lin Fan replied calmly.
Princess Longyuan let out a cold laugh, took off the fragment hanging at her waist, and threw it at Lin Fan. “Hmph, take it then. In the end, we’ll all die here anyway.”
Lin Fan caught the fragment and smiled slightly, placing it into his bag. That made two pieces.
Emperor Longyuan stood there, stunned, his imperial sword slipping from his hand. He had no strength left to resist.
In the face of absolute power, all resistance was futile.
Centuries of imperial legacy were about to be destroyed in an instant. He felt deep resentment.
Boom!
At that moment, the humanoid beast roared again, and the ball of energy in its mouth, surpassing all limits, shot toward the Longyuan Empire.
The immense force tore through the ground, leaving a long, deep scar.
“We’re done for…”
At this moment, everyone gave up resistance, closing their eyes in despair. Against such overwhelming power, any struggle was useless.
Dark light engulfed everything. The energy ball grew larger and larger, and within it, everyone could see the raw, destructive force contained inside.
“Sometimes, you can’t underestimate others, or you’ll end up with a slap in the face.”
At this moment of despair, everyone heard Lin Fan’s voice.
They couldn’t help but smile bitterly. Somehow, even in the face of death, this man still remained calm.
“So what if it’s a Great Heaven Realm peak beast? So what if it has sixteen chains of divine law? To me, it’s still just a wild beast,” Lin Fan said calmly, standing atop the city wall, waiting for the incoming energy ball.
“Haha… Kid, I admire you. Even now, you can still remain composed. Just this mindset alone puts me to shame,” Old Mo laughed bitterly.
“Old man, this isn’t just mindset. In the face of absolute power, everything is like smoke. To you, that energy ball seems unstoppable. But to me, it’s nothing special,” Lin Fan replied with a faint smile.
Old Mo looked at Lin Fan’s expression and felt a slight tremor in his heart.
“Princess Longyuan, you may be beautiful, but your temper needs work. You’re too quick to explode. You should change that in the future,” Lin Fan said lightly, raising his right hand slightly.
“You…” The princess’s face flushed with anger. Who dared speak to her like this? But then she laughed bitterly. After all, they were about to die—what did it matter anymore?
Ding!
At that moment, a crisp sound rang out.
Old Mo, Princess Longyuan, and the others instantly widened their eyes, unable to believe what they were seeing.
“This can’t be…” Old Mo screamed, his hair standing on end.
Princess Longyuan staggered slightly, completely shocked by the sight before her.
What had they just seen?
That guy—whom they had all underestimated—had simply raised a single finger and stopped the energy ball brimming with terrifying power.
And he looked so effortless.
The ball of immense power tore at the surrounding void, yet it remained completely still under Lin Fan’s single finger.
“Well?” Lin Fan said calmly.
Old Mo stared at Lin Fan and suddenly let out a loud roar toward the sky.
“Master! You’re a true master!”
“Still不服?” Lin Fan asked with another smile. The old man was actually quite amusing.
“Okay… okay! I’m convinced! I’m convinced!”
“Want to live?”
“Of course! I dream of it!”
“Say something nice then.”
“Master! You are the man in my heart! The one I’ve always admired!” Old Mo cried, shedding tears with no shame whatsoever.
Boom!
In that moment, Lin Fan gently flicked his finger, and the terrifying energy ball shot back even faster than before.
The beast with sixteen chains of divine law watched in shock as the ball of destruction came flying back at incredible speed. In its moment of realization, it was instantly engulfed.
