Chapter 124: Beast vs Human!

The beast tide surged forward.

All the cultivators formed a defensive line, clashing head-on with the bloodthirsty wave of beasts.

They stood firmly in front of the city gates, guarding them with their lives!

This was a true war—every second, another beast fell.

Blood soaked the yellow earth beneath their feet, staining it a dark red. No one had time to think about their next move; it was either the enemy’s death or their own!

If someone got injured, they’d retreat for treatment, while others would seamlessly step forward to fill the gap.

Once the injured recovered, even slightly, they’d grab their magical weapons and rush back into the fray.

Even the skies above had their own defensive line, holding off birds, eagles, and hawks from breaking into the city.

“Kill!”

“Beasts, die!”

“Does anyone have a Spirit Restoring Pill? I’m almost out of spiritual energy!”

“I do, catch!”

“Old Feng, watch your back!”

At this moment, everyone temporarily forgot the divide between righteous and demonic sects. They entrusted their backs to one another.

Faced with the beast tide, the term human race became their final line of unity!

Meanwhile, the prodigies showed their true strength.

Lin Langyue’s mastery of Dao Techniques was unmatched; with every motion of her hands, countless beasts were crushed into powder.

Yue Jianli’s sword intent surged, the brilliance of her blade cutting down beast after beast, their heads rolling to the ground.

Qin Ruyan’s veil fluttered as the sound of strings and flutes arose out of thin air. The beasts before her turned on one another in a chaotic slaughter.

Although the beast tide was massive, most of the beasts on the outskirts and middle were of lesser strength. Their individual combat abilities weren’t too formidable, and for now, they were being held back.

As for Li Ran, he moved swiftly through the beast horde, reaping the lives of the monsters at a breakneck pace.

The system’s kill counter was skyrocketing.

“Roar!”

A massive primordial beast over ten meters tall stormed through, kicking and crushing the beasts in its sect as it advanced toward the human defensive line.

The disciples of the Central Heaven Sect guarding that area stared in horror at the colossal creature.

“A— a Golden Core realm beast!”

A beast’s strength wasn’t solely determined by its cultivation level—its bloodline was equally important.

This enormous creature clearly possessed an ancient bloodline. Its overwhelming power was terrifying!

“Roar!”

The giant beast raised its hand and brought it crashing down toward them!

Shadows enveloped them, and despair flickered in their eyes.

It’s over.

But what happened next left them completely stunned.

A golden giant appeared behind the massive beast, towering several times higher.

Behind the golden figure stretched an endless cosmic starry sky.

The giant raised its left arm, entwined with a divine dragon, and slammed it down mercilessly!

Boom!

The ground shook violently, knocking nearby cultivators off their feet!

The once unstoppable beast, along with all the monsters around it, was smashed into nothing more than pulp.

Phenomenon: Dragon-Elephant Harmonizing the Sky!

And it wasn’t over yet.

The golden giant raised its right foot, crushing the remaining beasts beneath it as effortlessly as stepping on ants.

With a wave of its arms, it grabbed a massive three-headed bird from the sky and yanked it down.

Amid pitiful wails, the beast was brutally torn in two!

Blood rained down like a torrential downpour, falling on the giant’s golden body, only to evaporate instantly in the radiant light.

The cultivators stood frozen, watching this scene with their throats tightening.

“What… what is this?”

“Could it be a true god descending?”

At that moment, a female cultivator pointed in shock and exclaimed, “Look, it’s Li Ran!”

Everyone turned their gaze upward, only to see Li Ran standing atop the giant’s head, mimicking its every movement.

Boom!

The golden giant stomped one last time before turning around and stepping into the void, returning to the cosmic starry sky from which it came.

Where the golden giant had been, a massive void now lay in the midst of the beast tide.

Li Ran descended lightly to the ground.

Without sparing a glance at the awestruck cultivators before him, he turned and continued hunting the beasts.

For him, it was all about the kills.

The disciples of the Central Heaven Sect wore conflicted expressions.

The Hidden Gauze Sect Holy Son, who had humiliated their Head Disciple, had just become their savior?

This left them with a mix of emotions.

A female disciple whispered, “That must have been his Dharma Form, right? Do you think… our chief could stand against him?”

The crowd fell silent.

The answer was self-evident.

Li Ran darted through the beast horde, ruthlessly reaping lives.

With his Heaven-Seizing Art running at full power, spiritual energy surged through him ceaselessly.

He had no intention of holding back his strength.

With the system at his side, his trump cards would only grow. Exposing a few didn’t matter.

Besides, even if they saw his Dharma Form, so what?

Who could withstand even a single punch from him?

Power was the ultimate truth.

He didn’t bother with the trope of hiding his strength to “play the underdog.” Li Ran didn’t have the patience or the time for such antics!

“Roar!”

A massive lion, its body crackling with thunder, roared deafeningly.

The surrounding beasts trembled in fear, prostrating themselves before its feet.

The Thunder Lion!

This creature, already a ruler of the deep forest, had appeared unexpectedly in the beast tide.

Yue Jianli and Lin Langyue joined forces against it, battling fiercely for hundreds of exchanges, yet they couldn’t bring it down.

Instead, its aura grew only stronger!

“Roar!”

With a thunderous bellow, the lion dashed toward Yue Jianli, moving like lightning.

It was intelligent enough to identify her as the weaker of the two, aiming to take her down first!

“Watch out!”

Lin Langyue cried out in alarm.

The lion’s speed was overwhelming. Yue Jianli barely had time to react before its claws, crackling with thunder, were right before her.

She tried to evade, but the paralyzing shock from the thunder left her body numb, unable to lift her sword.

“No—!”

Her terrified expression was mirrored in the cold, indifferent eyes of the lion.

Bang!

Just as the claws were about to shred her apart, a blood-red figure flashed by, knocking the lion aside with brute force!

It was Li Ran, standing protectively in front of her. His entire body radiated bloodlust, his dark red eyes blazing with murderous intent.

“You’re not staying here. Get back to the city!” he ordered without looking back.

“But I—”

“Leave! Now!”

His tone was cold and brooked no argument.

Yue Jianli lowered her head and obediently retreated.

“Roar!”

The Thunder Lion climbed back to its feet, shaking its head. Its icy blue eyes were filled with rage.

Lin Langyue spoke up, “This is a Nascent Soul Realm beast. Its strength is not to be underestimated. If we join forces—”

“No need.”

Li Ran’s voice was cold and fierce. “I’ll kill it myself!”

“Don’t be rash—”

Before she could finish, Li Ran took a step forward, his body swelling dramatically, ripping his clothes apart.

His muscles bulged like steel, and the blood energy emanating from him was akin to a blazing sun!

The Thunder Lion, surrounded by arcs of lightning, faced him head-on.

And then, in an instant—

Boom!

Man and beast collided violently!

No Dao Techniques, no magical artifacts—just claws and fists!

Their clash was primitive and brutal, each blow drawing blood and landing with raw force.

The surrounding beasts and cultivators froze, stunned by the savage battle between man and beast.

“Beast!”

Li Ran rose to his feet, grabbing the lion by its tail and lifting its massive body.

With a mighty swing, he smashed it into the ground with a deafening crash!

Before the lion could recover, Li Ran pinned it down. His hand formed a blade, tearing through its chest with terrifying force!

“Roar! Roar!”

The lion thrashed in agony, but Li Ran remained as unshakable as a mountain, pinning it firmly.

With his right hand, he tore out its Thunderheart, a pulsating core of pure lightning.

Bang!

The Thunderheart shattered in his palm, scattering fragments of lightning.

The horde of beasts wailed in despair and scattered in fear.
