Chapter 473: Chapter 424: The Attack of the Demonic Fierce Beast!

Hu la la——

The ancient city district, deserted and silent, was suddenly filled with the rattling sound of chains dragging across the ground. It was exceptionally loud, startling many people. Even powerful figures such as Ye Chen and Dao Chu grew solemn, for they sensed several overwhelmingly terrifying presences rapidly approaching.

"Be cautious, truly formidable creatures have appeared, they may be as powerful as the Divinity Transformation Fifth Layer Heaven," warned the Saint Heir of the Beiming Family, filled with vigilance.

Ao hou——

Suddenly, a dreadful roar broke out, dispersing the thick mists and restoring clarity to the air. What appeared in front was a massive beast charging towards them, bringing violent winds that made the entire ancient city district rumble.

It was a fearsome Dragon Scale Lion, its body entirely covered in dense and hard scale armor. Its eyes were blood-red and radiant, wrapped in pitch-black evil energy, and its massive, pillar-like limbs were bound with black chains exuding a demonic aura, causing one’s expression to change.

Without a doubt, it was a very powerful Dragon Scale Lion, with an overwhelming presence. To everyone’s surprise, this Dragon Scale Lion was clearly under control—the four black demonic chains binding it had transformed it into a Demon Lion, evidently manipulated by demon beings.

Behind it, one after another, demon beings emerged, flapping their dark bat wings and fixing their malevolent gaze on Ye Chen and the others, filled with killing intent and Demonic Qi.

"Everyone be careful, this Dragon Scale Demon Lion is very powerful and not easy to deal with," a few Saint Heirs and Saintesses spoke with grave expressions, acting cautiously without underestimating the threat.

Ao hou——

The Dragon Scale Demon Lion let out a roar and lunged into battle.

"I will take it on."

Dao Chu stepped forward proactively. He was a handsome and radiant man, shining with divine brilliance. Each of his movements flickered with dazzling treasure light, exuding an astonishing King-level power as he stepped into the void.

Boom——

His first move involved the execution of a Supreme Divine Skill—a powerful divine technique from the Dao Yan Sacred Land. The King-level Divine Power surged, accompanied by an outpouring of brilliant light, as he advanced to meet the Dragon Scale Demon Lion head-on.

Indeed, Dao Chu was very powerful. As a Saint Heir of the Dao Yan Sacred Land, he was a figure of the Void King Level, and could be called a king among the younger generation.

In his hands now appeared a pair of Treasure Wheels, intertwined with Dao Traces that shone brilliantly. One wheel engendered blazing Divine Fire, while the other was enveloped in the dark, cold Netherworld Fire. These were the Yin Yang Two Paths Divine Fire.

The Yang Fire burned, evaporating mists, raising the temperature of the world around them significantly.

The Netherworld Fire fluttered, condensing frost, chilling the heart and mind of any onlooker.

The alternating Yin and Yang Fires, under Dao Chu’s command, advanced powerfully. The Netherworld Fire corroded all life, while the Yang Fire incinerated it. The Yin and Yang complemented each other, striking the Dragon Scale Lion head-on with astonishing force, sending it flying as dark, evil blood spattered and fell.

However, the Dragon Scale Demon Lion was also formidable, clad in Dragon Scale Armor, it was difficult for even a powerful being like Dao Chu to truly kill it immediately. Furthermore, as the Demon Lion roared, the dark demon scales all over its body flashed with Demon Light, shooting out beams of black light, containing a terrifying corrosive evil force attacking Dao Chu.

On another front, among the Alien Demon race, not only a terrible demon beast like the Dragon Scale Demon Lion was released, but also several other horrendous fallen beasts of the Demon Path, each extremely powerful and in no way inferior to the Dragon Scale Demon Lion battling Dao Chu, all lunging into the fight.

"Everyone, let’s take action, let’s end this quickly. I have a feeling we’re about to encounter even bigger trouble," said the ethereal and celestial Saintess from the Beiming Family, her voice clear as a bell, yet also filled with gravity.

It was said that the Purple Mansion Sacred Land had lost all vitality, yet now it seemed, many spiritual beasts and demon beasts reared in the past had been subdued by these alien races resembling demons, turning them into brutal demonic fierce beasts.

Boom——

Ye Chen and the other Saint Heirs and Saintesses had no choice but to join the fight.

The Dao Yan Saintess, the Saint Heirs and Saintesses of the Beiming Family, and the Goddess of the South Divine Mountain each met head-on with the four demonic fierce beasts equally as formidable as the Dragon Scale Demon Lion, engaging in fierce combat. Divine Power surged forth, shaking the heavens and the earth, causing nearby temples and pavilions to collapse in a thunderous downfall.

Furthermore, one Alien Demon after another rushed to block and interfere, with Demonic Qi sweeping over them. Beams of deadly black light streaked across, seizing the opportunity to attack and slay the powerful.

Zhao Tianyi bellowed, his black hair dancing wildly. Although he wasn’t as powerful as some of the others, he too was a powerful young contender, a strong figure of the Divinity Transformation Realm, wielding various Divine Skills of the Immortal Empire. With the Divine Mirror in the sky and the treasure light shining, his War Sword clanked as he struck down Alien Demons after another that attempted to interfere.

All were engaged in intense combat, turning the faces of many younger powerhouses who followed them pale, realizing the terrifying power and formidable might of the demonic fierce beasts they were battling, far beyond their capacity to oppose.

Ao hou——

A terrifying roar erupted as a pitch-black Demon Flood Dragon hundreds of meters long soared through the air, like a mountain range rushing forward, its passage blasting away the mists of the Ancient City district.

It could be said that this Demon Flood Dragon was terrifyingly powerful, surpassing other demonic fierce beasts in strength. Although its True Dragon Bloodline was diluted, its enormous size indicated that it was at least a monster from the Divinity Transformation Sixth Layer Heaven or above.

The arrival of the beast caused everyone present to pale with fear, even the descendants of the Immortal Forces, for this demonical Demon Flood Dragon appeared even more terrifying and powerful than other demonic fierce beasts like the Dragon Scale Demon Lion.

The Demonical Demon Flood Dragon bellowed, and then it opened its mouth to spew forth a jet of inky-black Dragon Breath, turning into a surging wave of demonic fog that blanketed everything, filled with corrosive evil. Anyone sprayed would be completely dissolved and corroded, even a master of the Divinity Transformation Fifth Layer Heaven would perish, their body and Dao vanishing.

All the formidable figures present changed color, for even they would suffer heavy injuries if they were struck.

"You all focus on the fight. I’ll deal with this Demon Flood Dragon," Ye Chen spoke up, the only one among them who had yet to make a move.

Facing the terrifying evil Dragon Breath, Ye Chen, even without displaying the invincible Divine Power of an Immortal True King, activated the Holy Light Technique. His body immediately glowed with a rosy light, filled with Holy Light throughout. It was as though he had transformed into a Holy Light Body that was immune to all techniques, sacred and inviolable.

Streams of Holy Light surged like a flood, engulfing the sky. In an instant, over a dozen Alien Demon Beings who charged at him were purified alive by the Holy Light, turned into wisps of blue smoke, utterly obliterated.

The surging Holy Light collided with the Dragon Breath. Sacred clashed with evil, hissing as large amounts of vapor boiled and churned, neutralizing each other.

"Such terrifying Dragon Breath." Even Ye Chen furrowed his brow slightly. Normally, no matter how potent the evil energy, he could easily purify anything, even without using all his strength.

But this breath of dragon’s could only be neutralized by him, which proved enough.

Whoosh—

He stepped forward, and his whole being solidified into a beam of splendid golden light that streaked across the sky. He shot upwards, and with a surge of Holy Light from his fingertip, he formed several hundred-zhang tall Holy Light Divine Swords. They dispersed layer upon layer of fog, thunderously cleaving onto the body of the Demon Flood Dragon.

With a crack, dark blood spattered. Ye Chen effortlessly breached the demon’s evil Scale Armor defenses, cutting deep to the bone, nearly severing it into several pieces. The beast howled in pain and lashed out with its dragon tail, which seemed to press down and collapse the void itself.

Boom—

Ye Chen raised his hand to meet the attack head-on, not using any Principle Divine Powers, directly contending with his physical body. His hands shone brilliantly, containing boundless strength. With a thunderous sound, his palm exhibited immeasurable power, even shaking the void itself as it collided with the dragon tail.

Boom—

Blood burst forth, but it was black. The thick tail of the Demon Flood Dragon was shattered by his palm, baring bone, as Demon Blood flowed and entire swathes of buildings corroded away to nothing.

The Demon Flood Dragon roared in agony, its eyes blood red, having already lost its sanity. But at that moment, its mountain-sized demon body began to shrink rapidly until it was no more than five zhang long and as thick as a water barrel, yet it became much more powerful, its aura even more violent and terrifying. The beast’s dark scales flickered with Demon Light, its physique far surpassing the Human Clan in countless ways.

After this reductive transformation, the Demonical Demon Flood Dragon moved and the ground split open, Gang Winds rose, tearing open swathes of the Ancient City’s palaces and temples, battling against Qian Yue. Even a powerhouse of the Divinity Transformation Fifth Layer Heaven would inevitably be torn to shreds were they to encounter it.

However, unfortunately for it, it faced Ye Chen, the Immortal True King, whose Treasure Body was strong enough to far surpass ordinary people.

Clang—

Ye Chen raised his fist to meet the attack, resisting a blow head-on. He produced a Dark Gold Halberd with his hands, coalesced from Blood Qi, sweeping across and crushing the Cangyu with terrifying Dao Power.

His fingertip also flowed with swathes of Jinhua, rising against the heavens, transforming into a sky full of Splendid Star River, with stars rumbling as they rotated, directly striking down and shattering the void.

Boom, Boom, Boom—

Ye Chen fiercely clashed with the demonical Demon Flood Dragon, engaging the beast with the True Dragon Bloodline in a fierce battle that was evenly matched. Successive bursts of Divine Power exploded and undulated, sending the void reverberating and ancient palaces and temples continuously crumbling.

This left many young heroes watching from afar dumbstruck, feeling that such a physique was perhaps excessively strong.

Everyone understood how strong the Demon Flood Dragon’s physical body had become. Belonging to the Demon Race and possessing the True Dragon Bloodline, which had now compacted, meant that it was nigh impervious to sword and blade. Common Magic Artifacts could hardly injure it, making it a being even kings would avoid by three feet.

Yet under Ye Chen’s assault, its Scale Armor shattered, dark evil blood incessantly splattered, truly shocking to behold.

How powerful exactly was this Ye Chen?

On the other hand, a Demon Ape came charging, standing three zhang tall with huge, muscular limbs, shaggy hair shimmering with a dark luster, equally extremely dreadful. It joined forces with the demonical Demon Flood Dragon to attack Ye Chen.

Ape and dragon, two great demonic fierce beasts teamed up to attack Ye Chen. Even other kings would pale at the sight, and Zhao Tianyi’s expression changed drastically.

"Roar—"

Suddenly, Ye Chen let out a thunderous roar that shook heaven and earth, booming like thunder, exploding through the Nine Layers of Heaven.
