Chapter 47: Dragon God Claw
Xiong Jun roared and launched the first attack.
"Tear Heaven Claw!"
He roared, swinging his massive arm, which was over ten meters long. The huge bear claw descended with a whistling sound. The void compressed and twisted, emitting a terrifying sound like muffled thunder.
At the fingertips, the extended dark golden claws emanated an incredibly sharp aura. Where they passed, tiny cracks appeared in space, a display of power enough to shock anyone.
On the other side, the Three-Headed Crimson Demon Mastiff, a monstrous beast with three heads, opened its mouths filled with sharp teeth.
Black flames spewed out, as if capable of burning even a person's body and soul.
The Myriad Demon King, transformed into a bizarre giant tree, had countless thick branches moving around like giant pythons, blocking all of Ao Tian's escape routes. Poison seeped out, quickly corroding even the hard soil below, causing white smoke to rise and releasing a pungent, unpleasant odor.
Di Tian, transformed into the Golden-Eyed Black Dragon King, didn't immediately attack. Instead, he hung back, ready to counterattack if Ao Tian made a move.
His massive size prevented him from attacking at the same time as Xiong Jun. Now, Xiong Jun, the Crimson King, and the Myriad Demon King were perfectly coordinated, leaving Ao Tian with no escape route.
Since the battle had begun, they would give it their all.
Di Tian needed to defeat this enemy as quickly as possible, minimizing the damage inflicted here.
He was also assessing Ao Tian's strength. The one Ao Tian had slapped away earlier was the weakest among them. If it had been Di Tian, he could have done the same.
In his opinion, the combined attack of Xiong Jun and the others was sufficient.
He also wanted to see Ao Tian's true nature. If he wasn't human, and wasn't a soul beast, then what exactly was he?
Standing at a distance, Xiao Wu, her mother, and Da Ming and Er Ming were utterly stunned. The terrifying aura of the soul beasts filled them with dread, and their bodies trembled.
This was the suppression of a high-level being over those of a lower level.
They couldn't help but wonder if Ao Tian could withstand such a terrifying attack.
However, when they thought of Ao Tian's size, which was countless times larger than the soul beasts before them, they relaxed slightly.
According to common sense, the larger the soul beast, the more terrifying its strength. Even if Ao Tian wasn't a soul beast, the same logic should apply.
"Why isn't he attacking? Or defending?" Di Tian and the others were puzzled.
Seeing the terrifying attack from Xiong Jun and the others about to land on Ao Tian, he remained standing there calmly.
"Die!" Xiong Jun exuded a frenzied killing intent, wanting to flatten Ao Tian into a puddle of mud.
Ao Tian looked up, gazing at the enormous bear claw that was growing closer and blotting out the sky, and smiled.
With a loud bang, Xiong Jun's claw, which was like a mountain pressing down, seemed to have struck an invisible defense. The powerful strike just stopped in its tracks.
The Three-Headed Crimson Demon Mastiff's hellfire was also blocked by an invisible wall, unable to get within two meters of Ao Tian.
Seeing this, the Myriad Demon King immediately controlled the vine-like branches, which were covered in venom, to wrap around him. However, they too couldn't get within two meters of Ao Tian. The highly corrosive venom failed to have any effect.
No matter how hard Xiong Jun tried, he couldn't make his claws descend even a fraction of an inch.
"Power of Space!" Di Tian was shocked, unable to help but exclaim.
To be able to use the Power of Space to form a spatial barrier for defense, how deep must one's understanding of the laws of space be?
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel his scalp tingle, and a sense of fear welled up in his heart.
Time is king, space is supreme. The deeper one understands these two laws, the more terrifying their power becomes. Such a strong individual is the most dangerous to provoke.
Just as he was worrying, Ao Tian spoke: "Did I say anything wrong when I called you little guys? You're still far from it. Your power is too weak, not even enough to tickle me."
Xiong Jun roared incessantly, feeling utterly humiliated.
Ao Tian looked at this guy with the most fiery and extreme temper, and snorted coldly.
He threw a punch. In front of him, a giant dragon claw covered in golden dragon scales clenched into a fist, and slammed into Xiong Jun's chest, which was covered with thick, dark golden fur.
It was like a meteorite crashing into the earth. Xiong Jun's chest caved in, bones fractured, and blood spewed out. His massive body, over thirty meters tall, crashed into the forest, crushing countless towering trees.
How could he be so powerful?
The Three-Headed Crimson Demon Mastiff and the Myriad Demon King were filled with fear and wanted to flee immediately.
Ao Tian waved his hands left and right, condensing a golden Dragon Claw in front of each of the ferocious beasts, sending them flying and also severely injuring them.
Ao Tian didn't bother with these injured fellows anymore. His divine power surged into their bodies, sealing their cultivation. They would find it difficult to escape from here.
He looked at the last one, Di Tian, and said, "It's your turn. Let me see what you've got."
Di Tian, however, was stunned, a storm raging in his heart. He was shocked and said, "You... you are a member of the Dragon Clan?"
Ao Tian had just condensed the Dragon Fist and Dragon Claw to attack, emitting an incredibly pure dragon威, which even he, the patriarch of the Black Dragon clan, felt suppressed by. How could he not be shocked?
"If you win, I'll tell you," Ao Tian said.
"Alright, I'll go all out," Di Tian replied.
He had already used his spiritual power to check, and those of his companions seriously injured by Ao Tian were not in mortal danger, which was a slight relief.
And if Ao Tian was truly of the Dragon Clan, then it was very possible that what Ao Tian had said before was true, that his purpose for being here was merely to be interested in their Dragon Clan identity.
The Dragon God had been invincible under heaven and earth, leaving behind many bloodlines. It was normal for a Dragon Clan expert unknown to Di Tian to suddenly appear, or so he thought.
Therefore, his hostility towards Ao Tian had unknowingly lessened a bit.
Bi Ji had already charged into the forest and begun treating the injured.
Zi Ji, not far away, was already stunned, muttering, "How is this possible?"
As the Hell Demon Dragon King, her strength might not match Di Tian's, but in terms of the purity of her bloodline and her own potential, she was not at all inferior to Di Tian.
However, with her pure dragon bloodline, she still felt a terrifying suppression from Ao Tian's attack.
Xiao Wu's worries completely vanished, and her small chest puffed up, saying, "Nothing is impossible. Ao Tian's strength is beyond your imagination."
In her opinion, Ao Tian hadn't even used his true form yet, and he was already this powerful. If he were to revert to his true form, just how strong would he be?
Di Tian stared at Ao Tian, saying, "I will use my strongest move, a technique bestowed upon me by the Dragon God, the ultimate dragon clan skill—Dragon God Claw."
"Come on," Ao Tian said with a smile, anticipation in his eyes.
He wondered what was so special about this ultimate divine skill that was different from the ones his kind possessed.
Di Tian's aura rapidly intensified, powerful fluctuations erupting from him. Especially from his right claw, the terrifying energy it contained caused the surrounding void to tremble slightly.
"This strike will reach the power of a demigod. Be careful," Di Tian reminded.
Because he thought Ao Tian might be a dragon clan expert, Di Tian's attitude had improved significantly.
If he could recruit Ao Tian to stay here and protect the master together, that would be even better…
Ao Tian nodded. "Come, let me see how strong the ultimate techniques passed down by your Dragon God are."
