Seeing Lin Feng transforming into a Golden Dragon and rushing towards his back, the Beast King felt delighted. His body was almost twice the size of Lin Feng’s, which seemed like a futile attempt. He immediately swung his dragon tail back.

Instantly, two massive dragon tails collided in mid-air, each strike carrying a force of ten thousand jun. If aimed at a mountain peak, they could easily level it.

A terrifying energy storm erupted in the sky. As soon as the two colossal dragon tails collided, they rebounded off each other due to the immense force. Lin Feng was sent flying hundreds of meters before stopping, while the Beast King was knocked back over a hundred meters.

Although Lin Feng was sent flying a greater distance, he suffered less damage than the Beast King. Only a few dozen dragon scales fell from him, whereas the Beast King lost several hundred. In terms of defense power, the Beast King was far inferior to Lin Feng, who had reached the Seventh Layer of the Star Body.

The pain from shedding dragon scales was excruciating, and both couldn’t help but let out earth-shaking dragon roars. If the Lord of Netherworld were here, he would be speechless with shock, as Lin Feng was actually a Golden Dragon. This was why Lin Feng wanted him to leave.

After this hit, Lin Feng felt confident that he could rely on his body’s immense defense power to confront the Beast King head-on. Such straightforward, intense attacks were the most exhilarating. With a flicker of his body, he charged directly at the Beast King, his golden dragon claws gleaming and reaching for the opponent’s body.

Lin Feng’s dragon claws formed five claws, undoubtedly an advantage. In close combat, he had two extra claws, which is one of the reasons the Golden Dragon became a king of the Dragon Race.

The Beast King felt a wave of shock. Although his strength was greater than Lin Feng’s, his defense was much weaker. This was the first time he encountered such a situation. The Beast Race was feared for their strength and defense, but these advantages became non-existent against the Golden Dragon before him. Still, he refused to be outdone and charged back fiercely. Instantly, the two massive creatures entangled in mid-air.

Lin Feng’s five golden dragon claws pierced like blades through the Beast King’s dragon scales, entering his body, while the Beast King’s claws similarly entered Lin Feng’s body.

However, the Beast King’s claws only managed to enter partially, with one-third still outside, due to Lin Feng’s heaven-defying defense power. The golden and blue dragons rolled and intertwined in the air, creating a frightening scene.

During the struggle, both dragon claws deeply embedded in each other’s bodies, quickly enlarging their wounds. At this moment, the Beast King felt he was at a disadvantage.

He bore five wounds, while Lin Feng had only three, none of which were very deep. More frightening for the Beast King was that the wounds Lin Feng inflicted on him were healing before his eyes, thanks to Lin Feng’s incredible recovery power, which was beyond belief.

On the other hand, Lin Feng’s injuries were severe, causing him to cry out in pain as his dragon blood fell like rain, forming a trail.

In terms of withstanding pain, the Beast King couldn’t compare to Lin Feng, who endured the brutal pain of breaking through the Star Body. This minor pain was nothing to him.

The most terrifying aspect was Lin Feng gathering the power of the Five Elements on his dragon claws, quickly entering the Beast King’s body, further enlarging his wounds. Despite his massive body, he couldn’t withstand such an attack, and a wave of fear surged through him from the depths of his heart.

Lin Feng didn’t use the Thunder Element because he was trying to resonate with the Thunder Element in the air. If he used the Thunder Element now, he could be affected. He planned to unleash a frenzied lightning attack on the Beast King.

The Beast King knew that continuing this way would result in more severe injuries, so he opened his massive dragon mouth, planning to bite Lin Feng’s body and stop him, potentially dealing him a severe blow.

Once transformed into a dragon, martial skills became irrelevant—the key was strength and defense. At the moment, this was all he could do, but Lin Feng wasn’t going to let him succeed. The Thunder Element had gathered sufficiently, and when the Beast King bit down, Lin Feng quickly released him and dodged.

As he dodged, his thoughts prompted a thunderbolt nearly twice the size of the previous one to fall from the sky. This thunderbolt was also a Fire Thunder, instantly illuminating the sky with a fiery hue, visible clearly for miles around.

The Beast King was astonished. He couldn’t believe more lightning would appear. He initially assumed the first bolt was a martial skill attack from Lin Feng’s human form. Although its attack power was formidable, considering Lin Feng could kill the Ghost King, it seemed normal.

But at this moment, he transformed into a Golden Dragon and could actually unleash lightning, and it was even more terrifying than before. The immense pressure generated by the appearance of the lightning made his heart tremble continuously, giving rise to a sense of powerlessness.

If struck by this lightning, it would definitely cause severe injury. The Beast King was not a fool; although he felt powerless to resist, he still had to dodge. However, the lightning seemed to have eyes. Even when he hurriedly dodged hundreds of meters away, the fiery red lightning still struck him at once.

Moreover, the location hit was exactly where Chu Linfeng had pierced his body with Dragon Claw earlier. In an instant, his entire body felt extreme pain and numbness. One-third of the Dragon Scale on his body was knocked off by this lightning, and his entire body was almost split into two halves by the lightning, causing him to fall indiscriminately to the ground.

Hitting the already scarred ground, he made a large pit, and the Beast King felt that his entire body could not move. This phenomenon was too bizarre, as if someone had used a Space Domain on him. The Dragon Blood on his body directly filled the pit, and at this moment he really felt that he was doomed to die.

He had never imagined in his dreams that he would one day die at the hands of a Golden Dragon, and it was even an immature Golden Dragon. The unwillingness in his heart gave birth to thoughts of despair, as he still had one strike left to unleash. Even if he died, he wanted to take him along. 𝐟𝚛𝕖𝚎𝕨𝗲𝐛𝚗𝐨𝐯𝐞𝕝.𝐜𝗼𝗺

With this thought, the Beast King began to circulate the Nether Power within his body. Although his body was paralyzed, the flow of Nether Power was not affected. At this moment, his only choice was self-detonation. He was very aware of the power of the self-detonation, which could level everything within several thousand miles to the ground, or even destroy it completely, including the already ruined Jiuyou City.

If Chu Linfeng knew how powerful the self-detonation of the Beast King was at this moment, he would definitely choose to flee. Not because he feared that the Beast King’s self-detonation would harm him, but because Lin Ruoxi and Princess Yiyi were in Jiuyou City. If these two were to die from the Beast King’s self-detonation, he would never forgive himself, but he was unaware of this at the moment.

However, Lin Ruoxi and Princess Yiyi had already been found by Xiao Qiang and the Second Elder. When the Lord of Netherworld returned, it was just when these two were bringing them out from the underground secret chamber. Perhaps Lin Ruoxi and Princess Yiyi were not destined to die. At this time, the scene of the Beast King being defeated by Chu Linfeng suddenly flashed in the Lord of Netherworld’s mind.

Nether Beasts, unlike other races, have a special ability that allows them to instantly release all the Nether Power in their body through a special method. The power of this release is several or even dozens of times the original Attack Power, which is one of the reasons why the Beast Race could become one of the Five Great Races.

Of course, not every Nether Beast can self-detonate. The Nether Beasts that can self-detonate must be severely injured to trigger it, and they must reach the strength of the Saint Martial Realm. Otherwise, if the Beast Race directly sends tens of thousands of Nether Beasts to any race’s city to self-detonate, wouldn’t they be able to instantly destroy the cities of the other Four Great Races?

"If the Beast King can’t defeat Lin Feng, would he choose to self-detonate? If he self-detonates, the entire Jiuyou City might be affected. No, for safety’s sake, we must leave here!" thought the Lord of Netherworld.

"We must leave here quickly, and the farther the better. I’m worried that the Beast King might choose to perish together with Lin Feng because he can’t win!" the Lord of Netherworld said.

If Lin Ruoxi were conscious at this moment, she would definitely be extremely saddened. She would surely head to the place where Chu Linfeng was battling the Beast King, even if it meant dying with him. But right now, she was unconscious and completely unaware of these events.

However, Princess Yiyi was not unconscious. Upon hearing what the Lord of Netherworld said, her already pale face became even more bloodless, "Father, I must go see Lin Feng. I can’t let him die!"

"Yiyi, Lin Feng will be fine. The Beast King’s self-detonation is just a hypothesis. I fear the unexpected. Lin Feng even slaughtered the Ghost King, which speaks volumes of his strength. We should leave quickly. Even if the Beast King self-detonates, Lin Feng, with his Defense Power and speed, can dodge it. If he comes back and finds us dead because we didn’t leave, won’t he be heartbroken?" the Lord of Netherworld said.

The Second Elder and Xiao Qiang were shocked to hear that Chu Linfeng had actually slain the Ghost King. They were even more impressed by Chu Linfeng’s strength and didn’t hesitate, quickly flying off into the distance.

At this moment, seeing the Beast King’s situation on the ground, Chu Linfeng had a foreboding feeling, even before Sword Spirit spoke: "Lin Feng, this guy is about to self-detonate. A Fifth Layer of Venerable Martial Realm Nether Beast’s self-detonation can destroy everything within several thousand miles. You’d better transform back to your original form and let Chu Qing and Chu Tong shield you for a while!"

Chu Linfeng’s face changed instantly upon hearing this. He wasn’t afraid of the Beast King’s self-detonation; he feared some things wouldn’t move, "Damn it! If this guy self-detonates, won’t I lose his Storage Ring? It must contain a lot of Netherworld Purple Orchid. No, I must stop him!"

After saying this, he immediately transformed back into human form and flashed towards the Beast King down in the pit...
