Chen Shu's words had been spoken, but the beast tamers around him paid no heed, remaining in their positions.
Clearly, they wouldn't leave just because of Chen Shu's words.
"They're really not giving me any face?"
Chen Shu muttered to himself, regretting that his Dragon Guard armlet had no effect in the异空间 (yì kōngjiān -异空间), otherwise, he could have dispersed the crowd directly.
He didn't speak again. A single reminder was already out of humanitarian consideration.
However, when combat truly broke out, these people would react. They weren't fools who would wait in place to die.
"Guji! Guji!"
Xiao Huang chirped and landed on the ground, charging forward.
Simultaneously, its body suddenly grew, transforming into a two-hundred-meter giant sphere.
Even on the ground, the surrounding trees couldn't conceal it, instantly attracting the attention of countless people.
Boom boom boom!
Giant trees were broken one after another, unable to withstand such a terrifying heavyweight.
"The King ahead might have encountered some issues..."
Chen Shu had already retreated into Xiao Huang's mouth, his eyes constantly pondering.
Based on his experience, a King wouldn't easily reveal its whereabouts, nor would it remain exposed for such a long time.
A King in its normal state would either start hunting the surrounding beast tamers or relocate its territory.
As for being gawked at like a clown, that was not the style of a King.
"This gravity is getting stronger!"
Chen Shu frowned. No wonder no beast tamer dared to approach. Fortunately, he himself was unaffected by the skill.
He murmured, "Is it here?"
In that instant, a deafening roar suddenly erupted!
Boom boom!
The giant trees ahead cracked, and a terrifying aura instantly spread out!
Even beast tamers a thousand meters away couldn't help but change their expressions, their contract spirits becoming somewhat trembling.
"Scaring me?"
Chen Shu's three contract spirits were unaffected, their eyes filled with fighting spirit.
"Guji!"
Xiao Huang ignored the pressure from the front and rapidly charged towards the center.
But just as it was about to get close, a massive boulder dozens of meters in size ferociously flew towards it.
Xiao Huang's eyes moved, instantly activating [Strong Shield], a dung imprint appearing on its forehead.
Bang!
The giant boulder instantly shattered into pieces, while Xiao Huang remained unharmed, only the dung imprint becoming slightly dimmer.
"Hmm?"
Chen Shu poked his head out and saw the legendary fierce beast!
Roar!
A ten-meter-tall yellow giant tiger crouched on a broken log, its eyes filled with ferocity and killing intent.
On its forehead, the clearly visible character 'King' emanated a brilliant yellow light, its aura constantly changing, seemingly on the verge of breaking through to another level.
"Hmm?"
Chen Shu raised an eyebrow, a hint of shock in his eyes.
"This thing is about to break through?!"
He had witnessed fierce beasts breaking through before, but their aura was nowhere near this terrifying.
"That's not right..."
His face showed confusion. The difficulty of a King-level beast breaking through was too immense; it was practically impossible.
Theoretically, if it succeeded, it would directly advance from Black Iron King to Silver King, with a colossal change in strength.
However, it seemed no such situation had occurred in nearly a thousand years.
Roar!
In an instant, yellow light flashed in the giant tiger's eyes as it actively attacked.
"What the heck! Attacking just like that?!"
Chen Shu had no time to think and quickly commanded his contract spirits to engage.
Boom boom boom!
For a time, countless shattered stones shot out, the air crackling, filled with astonishing power.
"Whoosh whoosh!"
The Space Rabbit suddenly opened a spatial portal, transferring all the shattered stones away.
Its spatial attribute was now different from before. The range of its spatial portal was quite large, completely capable of being used as a defensive skill.
"Roar!"
The giant tiger's assault remained fierce. A yellow light barrier appeared in the sky.
In an instant, countless shattered stones fell from within the light barrier, once again attacking the yellow slime below.
Boom boom boom!
Xiao Huang endured the attacks. The [Strong Shield] on its body was quickly shattered.
"This damage..."
Chen Shu frowned. To his surprise, the giant tiger's strength was greater than a Black Iron King, though far from a Silver King.
Clearly, it was truly breaking through, but it still needed some time.
"Guji!"
Xiao Huang had already sustained injuries from the falling stones.
It turned and headed straight for the distance, wanting to temporarily escape the skill's range. There was no need to stand and endure head-on.
After a while, it reached a hundred meters away.
"Hmm? It didn't chase?"
Chen Shu raised an eyebrow. He had expected the giant tiger, with its violent temperament, to pursue relentlessly, but it remained in its original position.
"It seems it can't leave..."
Chen Shu was slightly stunned. His gaze shifted to a small lake next to the giant tiger.
His gaze sharpened as he saw faint white mist emanating from the lake, integrating into the giant tiger's body and continuously strengthening its aura.
"Is there a treasure inside?"
Greed flickered in Chen Shu's eyes. Something that could help a King break through was certainly not ordinary.
He chuckled and muttered, "Since you can't leave your spot, don't blame me for using underhanded tactics!"
"Guji!"
Xiao Huang returned to a position five hundred meters away.
At the same time, Erha continuously unleashed various skills, destroying the surrounding giant trees and clearing a wide path.
A hint of unease appeared in the giant tiger's eyes. It felt that this guy didn't seem like a good person...
The two sides faced each other across a distance of five hundred meters.
This distance was already quite considerable, with few skills capable of reaching that far.
"Roar roar!"
Erha's eyes moved, summoning two more clones.
The three Erhas' eyes were filled with intelligence as they all looked towards the giant tiger in the distance.
In an instant, a red glow appeared in their eyes, and three death fire pillars were instantly spewed out.
"Roar~~"
The giant tiger let out a low roar, its eyes showing some confusion. The range of the fire pillars did not even reach five hundred meters, posing no threat to it.
However, in the next second, the three fire pillars instantly struck its body!
"Heh heh, isn't this just a pure target..."
Chen Shu looked at the howling giant tiger with a smile in his eyes.
With the help of the Space Rabbit's spatial portal, all of Erha's skills could cross five hundred meters and directly bombard the giant tiger.
And he himself would be completely safe.
Chen Shu comfortably sat on Xiao Huang's head and muttered:
"This kind of combat is what your brother, the desperado, likes the most..."
