Dare to sneak attack him? Kuang Hou has accomplices?
Realizing this, he suddenly looked up outside, his icy beast eyes quickly fixed on a brown fox! Killing intent instantly erupted...
"You little bastard, dare to sneak attack this patriarch? Has the Fox clan lived too long!?"
The threatening tone, accompanied by a bell's chime, instantly drew the attention of all the beasts...
It was a huge bell-ding emitting golden light. Their patriarch was trapped within, with a noticeable bulge on his forehead, his eyes full of pain! His usual majestic and ferocious demeanor was nowhere to be seen!
Only then did they astonishingly realize that their patriarch was trapped and couldn't get out!
Kuang Su also realized that this thing was no ordinary item, his face turning ashen as he roared.
"What are you still gawking at, seize that little bastard for me!"
As soon as the words fell, his beast face flushed red! His voice boomed, the roars echoing incessantly! They pounded into his ears, causing them to ache!
The lion beasts reacted, rushing to capture Hu Qi. Hu Qi, already outmatched, looked uneasy. Before he could escape, he was surrounded by a group of massive bodies! Under the oppressive aura, he collapsed to the ground, gasping for breath...
One of the lion beasts opened its mouth, intending to snatch him away. Because the little fox before him was too weak, he let his guard down completely...
However, before his gaping maw could descend, a small seashell suddenly flew out beside the little fox. Its body rapidly expanded to enormous size! The clam opened its mouth, and before the great lion beast could react...
It was swallowed in one gulp!
Other lion beasts: "???" What happened?
Seeing this, their faces changed drastically, and they immediately retreated!
They watched as the enormous clam shell shut its mouth, occasionally emitting a "crunching" sound from within, as if enjoying some brittle delicacy...
They were shocked! Then they adopted a defensive stance, their gazes warily fixed on the giant clam shell... It was the first time they had ever seen something so strange and terrifying.
The pink shell, relying on its status as a spiritual treasure and possessing the power of the Great Dao, was not afraid of the oppressive aura! It single-handedly held the entire scene at bay!
In reality, it didn't have much strength. It was merely a surprise attack catching them off guard! This allowed it to swallow a lion beast of the Heavenly Dao Emperor tier in one go.
And it felt truly exhilarating, consuming the beast whole along with its core! It was packed with spiritual energy!
At this very moment, a terrified wail suddenly came from somewhere behind them, drawing the attention of many lion beasts...
"Roar!!"
Kuang Su was going mad! His beast eyes were filled with horror as he stared at the bell-ding above him!
Just moments ago, he had been watching the situation not far away, his face grim as he saw the pink shell suddenly appear! Suddenly, the entire area was bathed in bright golden light, blinding his eyes. Simultaneously, a strange power descended, instantly slicing across his beast body...
In just that fleeting moment, his cultivation had dropped!! From the third tier of the Heavenly Dao Emperor realm to the second.
Thinking of this, his bloodshot eyes stared at the sky above in shock and fury, his body trembling uncontrollably...
For a Heavenly Dao realm expert, cultivation grew slower and slower in later stages! The tier he had just lost took him over two hundred years, countless beast cores, and numerous battles to obtain!
Now... it was gone in the blink of an eye! How could he accept this!
And now, he was still trapped within. If this golden bell struck again... Thinking of this, his eyes were filled with dread! He wished he could annihilate the entire Fox clan!
On a half-broken rock face of a cliff, Kuang Hou lay charred all over. His beast eyes barely opened, taking in everything. The shock in his heart was no less than Kuang Su's!
He knew Jin Bao'er was powerful, had witnessed the unique aura of the pink shell, and knew Jin Lingdang was an immortal artifact, but he never imagined those two little things would be so heaven-defying...
Swallowing a Heavenly Dao Emperor in one gulp and remaining unharmed?!
Striking down a Heavenly Dao Emperor and absorbing a tier of their cultivation in return!?
Was this something a normal immortal artifact or spiritual treasure could do!?
Jin Lingdang had eaten its fill and was very happy, as it felt it was on the verge of breaking through to a second-grade immortal artifact! With a few more Heavenly Dao Emperor cultivations, it should be enough!
It had been stuck at the stage of one and a half-grade immortal artifact for a long time. Now, it finally felt the urge to advance, making it so excited that it wished it could absorb the cultivation of the Heavenly Dao Emperor below again! Its unseen gaze fell upon the dark lion beast, filled with regret! What a pity... m..oΓg
Kuang Su, enveloped by the regretful gaze, suddenly stiffened. He slowly raised his head to look upwards, his beast eyes filled with dread!
Was he mistaken? Why did he have a persistent feeling of being watched?! No! It wasn't him being watched... it was his cultivation!
Perhaps it was a wake-up call, but Kuang Su now had a strong premonition~
If he didn't get out soon, he might really have another tier of cultivation absorbed! For a moment, his eyes widened in madness, and he urgently roared at the group of lion beasts not far away.
"Don't harm him! Little fox, as long as you let me out, I'll let you all go! And I won't pursue this matter! I swear on the name of the Lion clan patriarch!"
At this moment, he no longer cared about jealousy or hatred! He only knew that if he didn't get out soon, he might not even be able to keep his position as patriarch!
After all, in the beast world, the strong were respected! His patriarch position was obtained because his strength was sufficient to defeat other lions! If he dropped another tier...
All the Heavenly Dao Emperors of the Lion clan were here, and there were three others whose cultivation was comparable to his!
Hu Qi stumbled to his feet, his chest aching. His mind had not yet recovered when he heard this! He then looked around blankly, suddenly remembered something, and quickly ran towards Kuang Hou...
They had depended on each other for the past few months! This Beast King had taught it many things, and in its heart, he was already like a half-master. Coupled with the subtle influence of the Fox clan's support for the Beast King, he naturally would not let Kuang Hou die.
After confirming that the Beast King was only injured and not in mortal danger, he breathed a sigh of relief.
Then, he looked at the golden bell and shook his head.
"Then you'll have to beg it yourself!"
As he spoke, Jin Lingdang snorted and finally spoke.
"That won't do! I finally caught you, and if I let you go, you might attack us in retaliation? Do you think we're fools! Hmph!"
Kuang Su's face contorted upon hearing this! Because he discovered a problem... this thing could speak, which meant that gaze earlier was real! The other party truly intended to absorb his cultivation again!!
He panicked! He turned and commanded the lion beasts.
"Capture that fox, and Kuang Hou!"
Then he looked up at the golden bell! His gaze was fierce!
"If you don't let me out, I'll kill them!"
The lion beasts looked displeased, and three of them looked even more impatient...
Because the Kuang Su who was ordering them now had the same cultivation level as them!
