Chapter 298: Savagery

Translator: Alsey Editor: Chrissy

The earth shook and the mountains swayed. The azure calabash that was thousands of meters tall began to lean unsteadily from side to side with blood energy gushing out like lava.

The movement was simply too great. Large cracks began to appear on the earth and extended for hundreds of kilometers into the distance. This scene was truly terrifying. It was as if judgement day had arrived.

"Luo Tian, do you want to bury all of us along with you!?" At this time, not to mention people like Chu Feng, even the marine race experts were dissatisfied. Some experts were about to lose all decorum with the marine human race.

That was because everything was caused by him. He slashed madly with sword in hand, hoping to destroy the invisible force and approach the calabash to take away the bronze lantern.

Everyone felt things weren’t looking good. A great calamity was about to descend!

"Run!"

Chu Feng shouted at Yellow Ox and the others, telling them to take the Wudang Grandmaster and the others and escape. He had to hold the rear and fight off the Sea God Tiger and Octopus King.

"I’ll accompany you!" the black yak shouted. He split a stone fruit apart and ate some of its fragrant red flesh and was once again in peak shape.

He grasped the Buddhist staff in hand and was prepared to fight a decisive battle against the marine race.

"No need. All of you leave!" Chu Feng refused because any later than this and the group wouldn’t be able to leave. He himself possessed great speed and wasn’t as afraid.

At the same time, he possessed a killer weapon which was the Golden Arhat Talisman. At the critical juncture, he could use it to resist the marine race’s killer weapon.

"You want to run? Don’t even think about leaving with your lives intact. I won’t even leave without taking your lives!" the Sea God Tiger roared and was incomparably savage. He wanted to kill the Mastiff King and the Eight Visions Temple master but was foiled by Chu Feng.

Following which, he fought a great battle with Chu Feng but wasn’t successful in killing the other party. On the contrary, Chu Feng had successfully saved the Wudang Grandmaster.

From the Sea God Tiger’s point of view, this was a provocation. This young human had saved people from under their noses, challenged them and attacked them. Now he wants to run away?!

"All of you will die!" the Sea God Tiger roared. His body was wholly golden and lined with dense scales. The contours of his body were prominent, and he also possessed a pair of powerful wings which could almost tear the sky apart.

He was glowing with a golden radiance like a meteorite crashing into the earth as he dived from a height of several thousand meters toward Chu Feng!

At this time, Chu Feng was fending off the Octopus King. His whole body was surging with blood energy as he activated his full strength. He couldn’t conserve anything while fighting against such powerful enemies.

The Sea God King had reached five times the speed of sound as he dived down. He was about to bombard Chu Feng with the explosive force of the inertia.

In the distance, both marine race and continental experts were shocked. The Sea God Tiger’s extended claw almost caused the air to distort with golden light like a mountain flood breaking through the dam.

Boom!

He smashed down in this manner—even before the golden claws had reached Chu Feng, the downward force had already shattered the mountain ridge below.

Buzz! Dong!

The mountain below was swept into a maelstrom of energy and torn apart immediately. Following which, the adjacent mountains were blasted apart and disintegrated. The scene was truly overwhelming.

Clang!

As expected, even Chu Feng’s golden bell formed from the Xingyi True Forms couldn’t withstand the descending claw.

One had to know that this was a bell that materialized from the seven true form seals and was much more powerful than when he fought against Qian Yue and the Golden Crow.

But now it was cracked and torn apart as the claw pierced through.

A cold brilliance flashed through the blinding golden glow. The Sea God King’s savage attack was invincible. It broke through the Xingyi True Form and was advancing towards Chu Feng’s spine!

Chu Feng was deeply astonished at the destruction of the golden bell and was forced into a passive situation. He was originally fighting a fierce battle against the Octopus King when his protective bell was pierced through.

Not only was he being ambushed from the back, but the eight-clawed Octopus King was also attacking wildly, smashing down with his eight tentacles.

Thump! Thump! Thump...

Chu Feng’s hands moved together and formed frightening palm imprints which defended against the enemy’s eight arms like a phantom. Additionally, he released a shocking energy explosion which swept away the ruined mountain grounds below them.

At the same time, he shot out the glistening and bright red flying knife and, injecting it with a frightening amount of energy, hacked towards the back to block the Sea God Tiger’s massive claws.

Clang! Clang! Clang...

The flying knife warped left and right, hacking continuously. Finally, it took the form of a bright red shield which blocked the attack to his back, allowing Chu Feng to move his body out of harm’s way.

This tiger claw was simply too astonishing and didn’t mind the flying knife at all. The knife, on the other hand, was shaken by the immense force and was soon slapped away. Even though Chu Feng had moved sideways and the claw failed to catch his spine, a bone-deep laceration was left on one side of his body with blood spraying out in all directions.

"Chu Feng!"

Yellow Ox, Manchurian Tiger, and the others cried out on the ground. Chu Feng was unexpectedly wounded—this Sea God Tiger was indeed overly powerful and ferocious.

Any normal expert with six severed shackles would definitely have their vertebra broken and die.

The Manchurian Tiger felt his hair stand on end. Being of the same race, he understood just how astonishing this golden-scaled tiger was.

"Aou..."

The Sea God Tiger howled as he flapped his wings amidst a burst of golden light and launched a mad flurry of attacks against Chu Feng, aiming to tear him apart.

"Human, I told you, you won’t be able to escape! Leave your life here!" the Sea God Tiger said coldly.

The deep laceration on Chu Feng’s back was healing at a visible rate. He shot through the skies and evaded the enemy’s incoming blow.

Additionally, he adjusted his primary target. The Xingyi Golden Bell appeared once again to block the Octopus King. He then leapt up and pounced towards the Sea God Tiger.

Chu Feng’s left had formed a dragon seal while his right utilized the tiger seal. He approached the enemy to unleash the ultimate move of the Xinyi Fist—Dragon and Tiger Contend for Hegemony!

Against an opponent like the Sea God Tiger, one had to bring out the ultimate move to have any effect.

Roar...

The cry of dragons and tigers reverberated—this wasn’t an ordinary fist but the ultimate attack of an ancient technique. A terrifying maelstrom appeared to tear apart all obstructions!

Thump! Thump! Thump!

Chu Feng was entangled with the Sea God Tiger in an aerial melee. Their imposing and majestic fist seals smashed down continuously. Every strike seemed as if a divine mountain was pressing down.

The moment Chu Feng’s fist came into contact with the Sea God Tiger, a great maelstrom emerged once again amidst a terrifying grinding force.

One could visibly see a faint golden whirlwind form in the vicinity, tearing apart all the mountain peaks in its wake.

Pfft!

The Sea God Tiger’s paw started to bleed as traces of laceration appeared.

Boom!

The next moment, Chu Feng’s fist seal changed once more—his left hand formed the demon flood dragon fist while his right formed the demon ox fist. This was currently his most powerful method but while performing this technique, the golden bell would disappear.

He targeted the Sea God Tiger. He used his five times the speed of sound to tear through the mountains, evade the Octopus King, and pressure the Sea God Tiger.

The Demon Flood Dragon Fist was similar to the Xingyi Fist in that it produced a frightening vortex which sought to tear the victim from inside out. It was exceptionally tyrannical.

The fist struck a mountain ridge as the Sea God Tiger evaded. A large tear immediately formed in the area of impact while the earth and rocks were spun around like a hurricane. This scene was quite terrifying.

The Demon Ox Fist was special in that it targeted the interior of the target by producing oscillations. The energy would rapidly shoot up and wreak havoc from inside, causing the target to explode.

Chu Feng clashed madly with the Sea God Tiger at five times the speed of sound.

Pfft!

The Sea God Tiger was furious—the pad of its other gigantic claw was sliced open by the Demon Flood Dragon Fist causing it to become drenched in fresh blood.

At the same time, the Demon Ox Fist arrived, forcing the tiger to clash head-on against the majestic fist intent several times. Frightening oscillations spread through his flesh and blood, threatening to break him apart.

The Sea God Tiger let out an odd cry as a part of his arm burst open amidst a shower of blood, causing him immense pain. His injury was apparently not light.

"Aren’t you going to kill me? Come on!" The glow of energy erupted with Chu Feng’s every move. His fist intent became increasingly terrifying.

Naturally, this was incredibly draining for him as he had to activate his full power and utilize his most powerful fist techniques. He was exerting 200% effort to battle against the enemy.

Every exchange would remove a large chunk of his energy. He would never use such a method casually unless he encountered a powerful enemy like the Sea God Tiger.

Fortunately, he was able to circulate his breathing technique to draw upon the free energy of the heaven and earth, merging it into this body to rapidly recover his consumption. Even so, there was still some risk—he could already see signs that his recovery wasn’t keeping up with the expenditure.

"If you can’t kill me. I’ll be the one to send you to the grave!" Chu Feng shouted as he smashed down with both fists.

In truth, the Demon Ox and Demon Flood Dragon fists had become increasingly powerful after merging them together. He could switch between them at will, causing the spiral and oscillatory energy to alternate rapidly and produce a gigantic explosion.

In the distance, all Kunlun and marine race experts were moved—Chu Feng’s tyrannical fist intent was even able to suppress the Sea God Tiger. This was simply too astonishing.

"Good, kill that bastard tiger!" the black yak shouted from a distance. They were all retreating away from this region.

"Aou..."

The Sea God Tiger roared loudly. He borrowed the impact from Chu Feng’s blow to rush towards Yellow Ox and the Wudang Grandmaster’s group in order to kill them.

Even as the struggle reached this stage, he was still paying attention to these people. He had no intention to let them escape and wanted to kill them off.

The Sea God Tiger was very proud. He believed the Mastiff King, the Eight Visions Temple Master, and the Wudang Grandmaster were all saved from the Octopus King’s hands by Chu Feng. He couldn’t allow such a thing to happen.

"Scram back!"

The black yak shouted loudly as he violently activated the Buddhist staff. He had intentionally provoked the Sea God Tiger just now. They should have already retreated quite far by now, but he wasn’t satisfied and wanted to pay the tiger back somewhat.

The ground collapsed and the mountains split apart—the power of the Buddhist staff was simply too powerful. The gigantic image of a Golden Arhat appeared midair and bathed the world in Buddhist lights. The sound of Buddhist chants filled the air as the attack bombarded the Sea God Tiger.

"Aou..."

The Sea God Tiger’s roar shook the heaven and earth, causing the whole mountain range to tremble. Some of the kings couldn’t resist the soundwaves and almost had their eardrums burst open.

The Sea God Tiger produced a weapon from his wings which, after activation, immediately enlarged into a golden dagger. The weapon resisted the vast energy and Buddhist chants from the staff.

However, the staff was extremely violent. It was able to force the Sea God Tiger back and send his dagger flying.

The dagger was a great killer weapon that could exterminate a top-level expert but it was unexpectedly flung away.

The Sea God Tiger’s eyes were frosty but he couldn’t do anything else.

"Go!" Chu Feng shouted from midair, telling the black yak’s group not to delay anymore and leave as quickly as possible. That was because the azure calabash was becoming more and more dangerous by the second. It seemed as if it was about to explode.

At this time, not only were the continental experts retreating, even the marine race experts could no longer maintain their encirclement. Many of them were running away madly.

Naturally, the madman marine human Luo Tian hadn’t run away and was still attacking the calabash frantically. He had offended all of the marine races. Everyone wanted to eat him alive.

"Sea God Tiger, come back here!" Chu Feng shouted. He had already reached the enemy and wanted to drag the Sea God Tiger and Octopus king into a decisive battle. These two weren’t as fast as him in terms of movement speed. Once the calabash explodes, he could definitely run faster.

The Sea God Tiger was quite resentful at this time. He was wild and savage, a trait of the primordial tiger hidden within his bloodline. But this human was even more savage than he was and was now actively rushing towards him!

"You’re courting death!" the Sea God Tiger shouted furiously. The dense golden scales on his body droned loudly and tens of thousands of light beams shot. With a boom, he pounced towards Chu Feng to engaged in a final showdown.

The Octopus King had wanted to retreat at first, but at this moment, a vicious glint flashed across his eyes. He thought that this was a good opportunity—with the Sea God Tiger holding down the front, he could find an opening to strike.

That was because he felt this human was simply too threatening. It was best to deal with him earlier!

"You want to challenge the two of us with your meager abilities? I’ll definitely kill you today!" the Octopus King said coldly as he transmitted a message to the Sea God Tiger. "Kill him, don’t let him get away!"

"So what if you two are working together? Come on, I’ll kill you all the same! I’ll solidify my fist techniques and comprehend my fist intent today by massacring you lot!"
