Chapter 462
“Peng! Peng!
Peng! “When Xiao Chen left the small mountain village, the battle by the river was extremely intense. The Lion King and Xie Mantang were engaged in a clash of strength. There was no combat technique involved. Every clash was a clash between a lion’s paw and a human’s paw.
The Lion King was extremely powerful. The strength of its front paw was at least tens of thousands of pounds, or even more than a hundred thousand pounds.
Xie Mantang also had super strength. A warrior’s strength would increase as their cultivation level increased. A Purple Elephant Realm warrior’s strength was close to five thousand pounds, a Celestial Realm warrior’s strength was close to fifteen thousand pounds, a Dragon Elephant Realm warrior’s strength was close to eighty thousand pounds, and an Earth Dragon Realm warrior’s strength definitely exceeded a hundred thousand pounds.
However, there was a difference between the Lion King’s strength and a warrior’s strength. The Lion King’s strength was pure physical strength. It did not rely on the Desolate Energy. A warrior’s strength had to rely on the Power of Desolates to achieve such terrifying strength.
Legend had it that in ancient times, there was a warrior who specialized in cultivating his body. He did not have a trace of Power of Desolates in his body, but he cultivated his body to the extreme. His martial strength was divine, and he broke through the heavens. He defeated all the other peerless warriors who cultivated the Power of Desolates. Eventually, his whereabouts were unknown, becoming an eternal mystery.
The Lion King began to use his physical strength to fight Xie Mantang, who was infusing his palms with the Power of Desolates. Both of their strengths were equal, and they were evenly matched.
Towards the end of the battle, the Lion King began to infuse his claws with the Desolates, doubling his combat strength. Xie Mantang began to lose.
However, Xie Mantang was a true Earth Dragon Realm warrior. He had a great divine power that Dragon Elephant Realm warriors did not have, which was to use the Heavenly Dao to defend and attack.
After suffering a loss at the hands of the Lion King, Xie Mantang regained his composure. He no longer relied on his own strength to fight the Lion King.
“B * stard!
I’ve had enough of playing. Die! ”
Xie Mantang began to use the Heavenly Dao to attack the Lion King. He absorbed the Heaven and Earth spiritual energy and infused it into his palms, causing the power of his palms to multiply. Every strike of his palms could shatter mountains. It was like an indestructible divine palm, forcing the Lion King to retreat.
“Roar!”
The Lion King had always been extremely domineering, and now that he had been injured by an old man, he let out an aggrieved roar. His aura once again exploded, and he madly attacked Xie Mantang in front of him, barely managing to turn the situation around.
However, this did not change anything. The damage that The Lion King’s attacks dealt to Xie Mantang was almost negligible. This was because the old monster, Xie Mantang’s defense was too abnormal. With his strengthened body, the Power of Desolates Armor and the Heavenly Dao defense augmentation, with these three aspects stacked together, even if The Lion King’s attack was extremely powerful, it would still be difficult for it to cause any substantial damage to Xie Mantang.
Xie Mantang’s hand moved like lightning, his right palm blocking the claws of the Lion King while his left palm was inconceivably fast. It struck the right side of the Lion King’s body and sent the Lion King who was more than ten times his size flying. Xie Mantang himself was forced back a few steps and he could not help but exclaim proudly:
“Bastard!
If you want to injure me, you will have to advance to an eighth-grade Beast King. However, you no longer have the chance. You killed my descendants and clansmen, so you are destined to die a tragic death!
And that Xiao Chen, who has temporarily escaped, do you think he can escape from the palm of my hand?
What a joke!
Even if he escapes back to the Death God Tribe, I will chase him to the Death God Tribe and tear him to pieces! ”
“Roar!”
The Lion King, Da Huang, did not suffer any serious injuries after receiving Xie Mantang’s palm strike due to the Desolates Shield. However, he still suffered some internal injuries. Not only was he not afraid, he became even more ferocious. His fighting spirit soared as he leaped more than a hundred feet into the air. Using the momentum of his descent, he pounced on the tiny Xie Mantang like a hungry tiger pouncing on its prey.
“Mayfly trying to shake a tree!
Hmph! ”
Xie Mantang raised his old face slightly and looked disdainfully at the Lion King who was pouncing down from the sky. He did not dodge, instead, he shot up into the sky like a cannonball. His palms suddenly turned snow-white, like ten-thousand-year-old ice, reflecting a glaring cold light.
“Whew!”
Lion King had used 100% of its strength in this attack. It had injected a large amount of Desolate Energy into its pair of thick claws, causing its claws to turn fiery red. At this moment, it was like a divine lion burning with red flames. It had descended from the Nine Heavens, and it wanted to crush the tiny humans on the ground into mincemeat.
“Boom!”
The Lion King’s claws and Xie Mantang’s palms collided in a blink of an eye. It was like two huge mountains colliding, producing a terrifying collision sound. At the same time, there was an explosion of light that was a thousand feet long. It was dazzling and dyed the man and beast in midair into a gorgeous and sacred scene.
“Ka-cha!” “Whew!”
The Lion King ultimately failed to defeat Xie Mantang. There was a huge gap in strength between them, or it could be said that the power of the Heavenly Dao was too terrifying. Xie Mantang’s palms had borrowed the power of the Heavenly Dao to increase the lethality of his palms. He was able to shatter the claws of the Lion King. The Lion King’s huge body was also sent flying into the sky.
“Bang!”
Although Xie Mantang had the upper hand, he was not completely unscathed. He was also sent tumbling by the huge rebounding force. He fell to the ground, but he did not fall. His feet were like iron poles that were embedded into the ground, causing the ground to crack. The cracks were as thick as an arm, with him as the center, spreading out in all directions.
“Splash!”
The Lion King flew far away before falling into a nearby river and disappearing. The river was very turbulent and a little turbid. The injured Lion King must have been washed away by the river.
“Shoo! Shoo!
Shoo! “When Xie Mantang saw the Lion King in the river, he ran to the riverbank. His sharp eyes scanned the nearby river surface, searching for traces of the Lion King. When he did not find him, his face sank.
Xie Mantang did not believe that the Lion King was dead. He suspected that the Lion King was hiding underwater in preparation to sneak an attack on him. He could not help but sneer and shout, “B * stard!
Since you are hiding underwater, I’ll blast you out!
Hmph! ”
“Boom!” “Boom!”
Done as he said!
Xie Mantang consecutively struck his palms at the river surface. The powerful palm lights caused huge water pillars to form in the river. Water splashed everywhere, and the river and riverbank started to rain heavily. The Lion King was not blasted out, but countless big fishes were blasted out.
“Swish!”
Just as the murky water splashed and flashed, a three foot long and two fingers thick lightning-like energy shot out of the water along with a huge water column. Immediately after, under the cover of the water, it flew towards Xie Mantang who was on the riverbank.
Good fellow!
Victory or defeat was obtained in a dangerous situation!
The Lion King did not escape with the water. Instead, he hid under the water and waited for an opportunity to use his ultimate killing move. He wanted to launch a successful sneak attack and deal a fatal blow to Xie Mantang.
“Eh?”
The Lion King’s idea was good, and the timing of his attack was also correct. The speed of the silver lightning was terrifying. In a blink of an eye, it had already traversed over a hundred feet. However, when the silver lightning was about eight feet away from Xie Mantang, the sharp-eyed Xie Mantang noticed it.
“Trying to sneak an attack on me? Is that even possible?”
Xie Mantang sneered. However, facing an unknown energy, he did not dare to be careless. He immediately sent out a palm strike towards the silver lightning. Immediately, a bright white palm light shot towards the silver lightning to intercept it.
“Pu!”
The white palm radiance was only the size of a palm at first, but after flying for ten feet, it expanded with the wind to the size of a washbasin. Just at this time, the silver lightning flew over, and the two instantly collided. The expected explosion did not appear, and the silver lightning actually passed through the huge palm radiance, like a water snake entering the water, only making a slight sound.
