Chapter 91: Interception, Great Battle!
The cool autumn breeze swept through the branches and leaves of the giant trees in the Western Poison Forest, creating a rustling sound.
The ground trembled slightly, and the newly emerged earthworms were so frightened that they immediately retreated back into the soil.
A massive, dark horde of beasts swept in from the east like rolling black clouds.
Giant trees along the path were knocked down and trampled, and some wild beasts that couldn't dodge in time were instantly crushed into meat patties.
"roar--"
"Lord Li Zhan, Dragon Mountain is just ahead!"
A brown-black ape ran ahead, nimbly darting between the giant trees. Its small figure landed in front of a golden bear tens of meters tall, pointing ahead and shouting.
As soon as he finished speaking, the golden giant bear suddenly stopped in its tracks.
Just then, a blinding golden ray of light tore through the clouds and struck the front of the beast horde!
Sizzle sizzle sizzle—!
The powerful force, accompanied by an explosion, forced the horde to a sudden halt, plunging them into chaos with roars and curses erupting everywhere.
As the light swept across, it left behind a huge ravine more than ten meters wide.
"This power!" Li Zhan's pupils suddenly contracted.
The soil in the gullies was a scorched red, and the stones mixed in with it had all turned to powder.
The Dragon King's golden rays?
But wasn't the Dragon King dead?
"Halt!"
A loud shout came from the sky ahead, and the clouds under the blue sky suddenly exploded, revealing a figure standing in mid-air.
A faint golden light lingered in his eyes as he coldly surveyed the massive, ferocious beasts below, showing no sign of fear.
Li Zhan slowly straightened up his bear body and stood on his two hind legs.
The bear's face was grave as it stared intently at the figure in the air: "Human! You killed our Dragon King!"
Upon hearing this, Zhang Ping chuckled lightly, completely unconcerned: "So what? You're Li Zhan, the patriarch of the War Bear clan?"
Despite wanting the Poison Dragon dead, she pretended to be angry and, as rumored, had lived in the human world and learned some social skills.
"Hiss, Lord Li Zhan, why waste words with him? Just kill him and take back Dragon Mountain!" A red-haired bat with its wings folded and standing shrieked from the horde, its scarlet eyes fixed on Zhang Ping.
"Roar—that's right, Lord Li Zhan! The Western Poison Forest is the territory of our beasts, how dare a human occupy Dragon Mountain!" another giant beast roared.
Two sentences ignited the horde's fury, and countless pairs of beast eyes turned dangerous.
Zhang Ping possessed no aura of a powerful figure; his standing in mid-air was a hallmark of the Marrow Entry Realm. However, even within the Marrow Entry Realm, there were varying levels. His body showed no fluctuations in qi and blood, appearing utterly unremarkable, suggesting he wasn't considered a particularly formidable figure within the Marrow Entry Realm.
Although we don't know how he managed to slay the dragon, now that Lord Li Zhan has returned from the Black Tiger City battlefield with them, we absolutely cannot allow a human to dominate Dragon Mountain!
Li Zhan remained silent and did not refute, clearly sharing the same thought.
Behind it was the entire War Bear clan, which had long coveted the position of overlord.
Below the clouds, Zhang Ping stood with his arms crossed, coldly watching the restless beasts.
The red-haired bat couldn't hold back any longer and made the first move! It let out a piercing shriek, and invisible sound waves spread out. At the same time, it flapped its wings, and its sharp claws flashed with cold light as it shot towards Zhang Ping like lightning!
Red Bat possesses late-stage Essence Blood Realm strength; it's a good opportunity to test this human's abilities.
Li Zhanxiong stared intently.
The sonic attacks of the red-haired bats are extremely troublesome; even ordinary martial artists at the Marrow Marrow Realm can suffer great losses if they are not careful.
However, to its surprise, Zhang Ping simply raised his hand. Instantly, a huge transparent shield rose into the air, blocking all the incoming sound waves.
Immediately afterwards, two golden beams shot out from Zhang Ping's eyes and struck the red-haired bat with lightning speed!
The red-haired bat let out a miserable cry and fell to the ground like a streak of light!
"Lord Red Bat!" The surrounding beasts were terrified upon seeing this.
Li Zhan's face was grim, and he grabbed a giant tree to use as a weapon.
"Kill them!"
"Tear him to pieces!"
The horde of beasts went completely berserk, roaring as they charged into the sky! Countless rocks and broken giant trees rained down on Zhang Ping, who stood in mid-air!
The massive Li Zhan Gu, his aura soaring through the air, wielded a giant log as a club and swung it fiercely!
Huge birds and beasts blotted out the sky and swooped in from all directions!
The crimson horn atop one of the armored rhinoceros beetles suddenly glowed brightly, shooting out a burst of red light!
Surrounded by a horde of beasts, Zhang Ping was attacked from all sides.
He took a deep breath and exhaled heavily, his eyes instantly turning bloodshot and red: "Divine power, Xuanwu Armor!"
His figure swelled slightly, and a heavy, earthen-yellow armor appeared out of thin air, covering his entire body. At the same time, a solid barrier of light opened up, blocking all the flying rocks and giant trees!
The light curtain vibrated violently, creating ripples.
Zhang Ping moved swiftly, ascending into the air and narrowly avoiding the giant wooden club that Li Zhan swept towards him. At the same time, his laser eyes swept downwards, precisely intercepting the red light shot by the rhinoceros beetle!
boom!
The golden light suppressed the red light and slammed into the rhinoceros beetle's hard black carapace, blasting a huge crater in place!
Immediately afterward, Zhang Ping slapped away the sharp claws of the bird-beast reaching out from his side with a backhand, let out a cold snort, and a ball of light rapidly expanded in his palm!
"Shinra Tenrin!"
A blinding white light suddenly spread outwards from him! Any beast struck by the white light let out a mournful howl and was sent flying backwards.
Upon seeing this, Li Zhan let out a deafening roar! Its hundred-meter-tall body expanded once more, forcibly growing to three hundred meters!
With a powerful stomp of its four giant paws, the massive body soared into the air like a small mountain. Its enormous paws blocked out the sunlight, and with a whooshing sound that tore through the air, it slammed down towards Zhang Ping like lightning!
"Foolish!" A hint of disdain flashed in Zhang Ping's eyes.
Before slaying the dragon, he might have had to maneuver and avoid it. But now that his strength has greatly increased, why would he fear it!
A long sword instantly materialized in his hand, its blade wreathed in eerie black blood energy, interspersed with crimson marks.
"Ghost Blade!" With a low shout, a sharp blade of energy slashed fiercely at the bear paw that was about to fall!
At the critical moment, a rich, earthy-yellow light emanated from the bear's paw, which withstood most of the damage from the blade's energy.
Zhang Ping was slightly taken aback, then abandoned his contempt and dodged with a swift movement.
"Humans! Taste my poisonous mist!" A giant insect swooped down overhead, its long tail suddenly spewing out a thick yellow gas!
The gas has a pungent, fishy odor and emits a hissing, corrosive sound upon contact with air!
"Farting bug? You're asking for it!" Having just dodged the bear's paw, Zhang Ping felt nauseous upon smelling the stench.
The potent poison imprinted within his body by the green lizard instantly activated, diluting and expelling the toxins. Consumed by rage, he glared fiercely at the giant insect that hadn't yet flown far.
"die!"
The blood inside the giant worm boiled and exploded!
The lifeless giant worm plummeted straight down. Zhang Ping seized the opportunity and delivered another blow to the corpse. The deadly toxins within the carcass instantly evaporated, and the monsters below inhaled the toxic gas, collapsing into a state of paralysis.
Li Zhan took two steps back, looking at the deep, charred wound in the center of the bear's paw, feeling the strange black blood desperately trying to enter its body. His face was extremely pale.
That was a terrifying blade aura; thankfully, I had the innate Qi to withstand it.
Looking around, he saw that the area within a ten-mile radius was a scene of utter devastation. Giant trees were broken and collapsed, and the ground was riddled with deep craters. His beasts used all their might to attack Zhang Ping, but he managed to fend them off one by one.
Zhang Ping's casual counterattacks, however, continued to inflict heavy damage on the beast horde.
Li Zhan keenly observed that, apart from the poisonous beetles and the strange beasts that wanted to bypass Zhang Ping and attack Longshan, Zhang Ping did not kill the other strange beasts, but only severely injured them to the point of losing their fighting ability.
In an instant, the expression on Xiong's face changed drastically, and Li Zhan hesitated.
This human was completely different from the Dragon King. His strength was unfathomable. He held his own against the entire horde of beasts, and his strange methods made him completely unfathomable.
It has lived in the human world for many years and has never heard of such a strange creature.
It even began to doubt whether Zhang Ping was really human.
We can't continue fighting! Even if we win, the casualties will be devastating. The demons to the east are watching us intently…
Li Zhan made up his mind.
"roar--!"
A tremendous bear roar, imbued with command and power, suddenly resounded throughout the chaotic battlefield!
"Stop!"
