In the intense battlefield, following that soul-stirring roar, both the human and beast tide sides fell into a brief, deathly silence.
Especially on the beast tide side, whether it was the birds in the sky or the ferocious beasts on the ground, they all crouched and trembled, as if worshipping a king.
In the distance, a long path was cleared amidst the dense throng of beasts.
"What could it be that makes even the top-tier ferocious beasts submit in fear..."
On the city wall, many human warriors were chilled to the bone, their eyes fixed on the path that had been cleared in the beast tide.
Zhao Feng, with the sharpest eyesight, could see from a great distance a dog-like ferocious beast with a completely black and red body slowly approaching from afar.
The black and red dog-like ferocious beast was about the size of a regular wild wolf, about one and a half meters long. Compared to some ferocious beasts and wild beasts, its size seemed so insignificant.
A dog?
Zhao Feng felt like laughing, but couldn't.
With each step the black and red strange dog took, a soul-shaking aura emanated from its body.
When Zhao Feng met the eyes of the "black and red strange dog," they were completely black and red, as if burning with a black flame, giving a sense of oppression that came from the flesh and soul.
That visual impact made Zhao Feng's heart tremble, and the "thumping" in his left eye became more and more rapid, whether from excitement or fear, he couldn't tell.
As the "black and red strange dog" approached the city wall, the human warriors' hearts trembled.
It seemed as if a force was pressing down on their flesh and blood, making it difficult for the human warriors to breathe, and even the martial arts inner strength in their bodies was trembling continuously.
"Could this be the legendary... King-level ferocious beast!"
Commander Heng drew a deep breath, a trace of extreme fear passing through his eyes.
It should be noted that his cultivation had reached the peak of the ninth level, making him one of the strongest on the battlefield.
King-level ferocious beast!
The heads of many warriors present buzzed, and some of their faces turned almost pale.
Many people knew something about the legend of the "King-level ferocious beast."
Generally, ferocious beasts are divided into low-level and high-level. Low-level corresponds to the warrior level, high-level to the martial master level, and the top level is equivalent to the peak of the ninth level.
However, top-level ferocious beasts are not the true pinnacle.
Above this, there is a terrifying existence in legend—the King-level ferocious beast!
The King-level ferocious beast, as the name suggests, is the king of ferocious beasts. Whether high-level or low-level ferocious beasts, they all bow in submission.
It is a disaster and nightmare that surpasses top-level ferocious beasts, even transcending the ninth level of martial arts.
Involuntarily, Zhao Feng recalled the relevant content in the library's books, which recorded the King-level ferocious beast.
The King-level ferocious beast can command the ferocious beasts and wild beasts in the Transcendent Cloud Forest.
Once a King-level ferocious beast invades human territory, it will bring catastrophic destruction, and a city can be destroyed in an instant.
In some records, there are even legends of multiple King-level ferocious beasts leading a beast tide army to destroy an entire nation.
"The King-level ferocious beast, a terrifying existence that can destroy a nation, as legend has it."
On the city wall of Guangling County, some warriors showed fear, their voices trembling.
The sun was setting.
Amidst the low roars and worship of tens of thousands of wild beasts and ferocious beasts, the King-level ferocious beast, the black and red dog, slowly approached the city wall.
The King-level ferocious beast did not launch an attack, but lifted its cold eyes and coldly scanned the people on the city wall.
Commander Heng, Ye Lingyun, and other ninth-level experts felt as if struck by lightning, their bodies trembling inexplicably, and their breathing suppressed.
In that moment, the King-level ferocious beast identified the strongest targets on the city wall.
"Quick, stop it!"
"Send a message to the master!"
Near the city wall, several dark silver figures appeared on the high towers.
Swish, swish!
Several dark shadow figures flew to the city wall.
"Boss, Second, Fourth..."
The dull young man, San Wei, exclaimed in surprise.
At this moment, the first four of the "Guangjun Wei" were all present.
Among them, the "First Wei" exuded a terrifying aura that made even ninth-level martial artists tremble.
Half-step Saint Realm!
Ye Lingyun's eyes swept over, and he drew a deep breath.
The cultivation of the "First Wei" exceeded the peak of the ninth level, with one foot stepping into the Saint Realm of martial arts.
Up!
Several dark silver afterimages flashed, landing at the foot of the city wall, facing off against the King-level ferocious beast.
First Wei, Second Wei, Third Wei, Fourth Wei!
The four strongest of the Guangjun Wei formed a semi-circular shape, blocking the path of the King-level ferocious beast.
"Ninth-level experts, prepare to support..."
Commander Heng's face was solemn as he issued orders.
He understood that with just the strength of the four Wei, it would be difficult to resist a King-level ferocious beast with the power to destroy a nation.
Swish, swish!
Soon, several more ninth-level experts appeared around the city wall.
On the city wall, some archers tightened their nerves and drew their bows.
Zhao Feng, standing far away, also drew the Golden Thread Bow.
Ugh~
The King-level ferocious beast, the black and red dog, with its cold gaze, seemed to have human-like emotions, disdainfully glancing at the humans on the city wall.
"Heavenly Net of Death!"
The four powerful Guangjun Wei transformed into a blur of dark shadows, wielding short blades with silver flashes, weaving a seamless "blade net" that enveloped the King-level ferocious beast.
This move, "Heavenly Net of Death," when launched by the four Wei, had power exceeding that of ordinary Saint-level martial arts. The cold blade light was like mercury, leaving no room for escape, enveloping a large area, and delivering a fatal blow.
From a distance, Zhao Feng felt a chill. If he were to fall into this "Heavenly Net of Death," even with his mysterious left eye, he would not be able to find a way out.
Ordinary ninth-level experts, if they fell into the "Heavenly Net of Death," would be shredded to pieces in an instant.
In the past decade, no one had ever escaped from this move when the four Wei launched it together.
Today, this deadly move was aimed at the King-level ferocious beast.
Pfft, pfft, pfft—
The body of the black and red dog king was surrounded by a dense web of blade auras, the ground pitted and scarred, leaving no room for escape.
Ugh, roar!
A layer of black flame gas rose from the body of the black and red dog king, emitting a terrifying aura that surpassed all living beings, sweeping in all directions...
Snap!
The King-level ferocious beast's sharp claws swept through the air, leaving a dark black arc several meters long, stirring up fierce winds and black smoke waves.
That simple slash was like a profound martial technique, or a black thunderbolt splitting the space.
Crack!
The "Heavenly Net of Death," which could instantly shred ninth-level experts, shattered into pieces.
Clang, clang...
The weapons of the Second Wei and Fourth Wei broke and fell to the ground, blood trickling from their mouths.
The First Wei and Third Wei stiffened, their faces pale.
On the city wall, Zhao Feng's left eye saw the King-level ferocious beast's lightning-fast claw, and his heart trembled.
Because in his eyes, the King-level ferocious beast's claw seemed like a profound combat technique.
Do ferocious beasts also know martial techniques?
This was Zhao Feng's illusion. The attack was somewhat similar to the palm strike of the "green girl" in the Blood Python Canyon.
Whoosh—
The King-level ferocious beast's single claw struck the ground, sending a wave of undulating black and red flame gas, flickering and oscillating, causing the nearby soil to instantly peel and crack, with dust and smoke rolling out in waves.
Quick, get out of the way!
The First Wei shouted in alarm, his short blade drawing several blade auras to meet the black flame gas.
The other Wei also fought while retreating.
Cloud Splitting Sky Kill!
Lingering Slices!
...
The attacks of Ye Lingyun, Commander Heng, and other ninth-level experts arrived, covering the four Guangjun Wei.
However, the black and red flame gas wave launched by the King-level ferocious beast emitted a power surpassing the ninth-level limit. Even before it approached, a burning sensation was felt on the skin and flesh.
"Ah!"
A ninth-level expert's clothes caught fire, and he rolled on the ground.
The ninth-level expert, despite activating his powerful martial arts inner strength, could not stop the spread of the high temperature, quickly turning into a pile of blackened remains.
Not only that, but the Third Wei and Fourth Wei of the four Wei were also hit by the terrifying black and red flame gas wave.
"Don't worry about me, run—"
The Fourth Wei roared, his body burning uncontrollably, activating his lifetime's martial arts inner strength, causing a boom in the air, and colliding with the King-level ferocious beast.
Crack!
The King-level ferocious beast's single claw struck, shattering the Fourth Wei's body into pieces, and the residual force did not harm it at all.
"Third Wei!"
The others shouted in alarm.
The Third Wei, the dull young man, also had the black and red flame gas wave on his arm.
Crack!
The dull young man gritted his teeth, cut off his arm, and escaped.
"Everyone, retreat quickly!"
The First Wei and Commander Heng shouted in alarm.
Standing on the city wall, Zhao Feng was speechless with shock.
He had just drawn the "Golden Thread Bow" and fired several arrows, but they broke into ashes before reaching the King-level ferocious beast.
Run! Everyone retreat!
Nearly ten ninth-level martial artists, unable to withstand the King-level ferocious beast's two casual strikes, suffered several casualties and fled in panic.
"The gap is too great..."
Beimo, Nangong Fan, and other disciples of Guangjun Hou were deeply shocked and retreated, maintaining a distance from the King-level ferocious beast.
Ugh, roar~
The King-level ferocious beast roared, and several more top-tier ferocious beasts stood behind it.
"It's summoning its subordinates, preparing to launch a total attack!"
Zhao Feng's heart sank, as if he could see the impending disaster that would befall Guangling County.
Is the legend of the King-level ferocious beast destroying a nation about to be played out in Xiangyun Country?
Just as countless warriors in Guangling County were in despair, a sound of breaking air came from behind.
"Where did this beast come from, daring to invade my territory."
A deep and resonant voice echoed from the sky.
Whoosh—
A silver afterimage flashed through the air, indistinguishable to the naked eye.
"That is..."
Zhao Feng's left eye, pushed to its limit, saw a middle-aged man in a gold-patterned silver robe, emitting a stunning silver aura, floating in the air like a divine being.
In a short moment, the man had crossed over a hundred meters in the air.
Such a skill was almost like flying, far exceeding the realm of ordinary light body martial arts!
"Is this... the level humans can achieve?"
Zhao Feng's heart raced, recognizing the identity of the newcomer.
It was none other than Guangjun Hou!
The martial and divine middle-aged man in the gold-patterned silver robe floated above the King-level ferocious beast, hovering in mid-air, defying gravity.
"Phantom True Wave Slash!"
Guangjun Hou waved his hand, and a silver aura shot up into the sky.
In an instant, a thunderous sound split the sky, and a silver light slash, about seven to eight meters long, surrounded by high-frequency vibrations, fiercely struck the area where the King-level ferocious beast was.
Ugh, roar!
The King-level ferocious beast showed a hint of unease, its sharp claws sweeping out a wave of black and red flame gas, colliding with the silver light slash.
Boom!
A violent gust of wind and energy waves rose several meters high, sweeping over an area of more than twenty meters, leaving pits and black smoke.
Near the King-level ferocious beast, several top-tier ferocious beasts were instantly shredded into blackened, shapeless pieces in their wailing cries...
