Chapter 1296 Arrogant Youth
As soon as he entered this demon forest, he sensed more than a dozen extremely strong malicious forces.
At least seven or eight powerful demons were lurking in the shadows, ready to attack and take his life!
Suddenly, in the distance, flames filled the sky, and a nauseating stench rushed in, as if a demon had descended, extremely terrifying.
Xiao Chen's expression changed slightly. With a thought, the Dragon Slayer Sword on his back automatically unsheathed, and in an instant, purple light shone everywhere, spreading across the void.
The sword rang out like a dragon's roar, and the Dragon Slayer Sword soared into the sky, drawing a dazzling trail of light in the void before landing steadily in Xiao Chen's hand.
Roar!
The next moment, a beast's roar shook the heavens and echoed through the mountains and forests.
In the distance, a terrifying behemoth enveloped in crimson flames rose into the sky, like a blazing sun, hanging high in the heavens, dazzlingly bright.
Xiao Chen raised his eyes and, after seeing the appearance of the strange beast, his expression changed slightly. It had the head of a chicken, the body of a lion, and two wings on its back. Flames raged, as if they were about to burn the universe. This was actually the legendary Divine Fire Chicken-Lion Beast!
This ferocious beast is extremely terrifying and has been spotted in multiple realms.
According to a very ancient book, 5,831 years ago, the Divine Fire Chicken Lion Beast appeared in a forbidden area of the Great Xia Dynasty. On one occasion, a martial king battle group of over a hundred people entered that forbidden area to explore the land. They accidentally stumbled into the territory of the Divine Fire Chicken Lion Beast, disturbed the sleeping beast, and were wiped out and burned to ashes.
Legend has it that the Divine Fire Chicken Lion is a hybrid offspring of an ancient demonic chicken and a fire-breeding divine lion. It is inherently evil, enjoys devouring living beings, and is ferocious and ruthless.
The Divine Fire Lion Beast is extremely rare, and it mostly inhabits extremely dangerous and ferocious places, preferring to nourish its body with ten kinds of evil energy.
In the Great Xia Dynasty, there are few legends about the Divine Fire Chicken Lion Beast.
But when the Divine Turkey Lion Beast makes a move, it's earth-shattering.
Thousands of years ago, he single-handedly annihilated a hundred Martial Kings, his ferocity shaking the heavens.
To Xiao Chen, this was a ferocious beast that only existed in legends. He never expected that he would encounter such a legendary beast just a few days after entering the battlefield of gods and demons!
Crimson magma dripped continuously from the Divine Fire Chicken Lion Beast, instantly igniting dozens of ancient black trees around it. The entire demon forest was ablaze with flames, and the crackling sound of the flames echoed like thunder throughout the forest. Many relatively weaker demons were terrified and retreated in droves!
The Divine Fire Lion Beast was notorious in the vicinity, belonging to the overlord-level demons. Since it appeared and saw the human boy as its prey, the others naturally gave way.
The heatwave was intense, with scorching temperatures permeating the air.
Sparks flew everywhere, like fireworks, falling into the void and turning to ash in the blink of an eye.
"Young man, what are you looking for in my territory?" The Divine Fire Chicken Lion Beast spoke, its voice hoarse, aged, and dry, like a centenarian, exuding a sense of decline, yet its demonic energy was extremely vigorous.
It smiled and didn't immediately turn hostile, but instead asked in a relatively calm manner.
Not long ago, it was entrusted by its old friend, the Golden Mantis King, to guard two human youths in the Divine Fire Forest. The white-robed youth in front of it had been searching the vicinity of the Divine Fire Forest with its divine sense, obviously for the two human youths. As the guardian, it had to come out and take a look.
Its name is Chicken Fire Forest, a local demon born and raised in the Azure Dragon Domain. Eight hundred years ago, it met the Golden Mantis King. The two demons were quite destined to meet and became close friends. They have maintained a fairly good relationship ever since!
Two hours ago, the Golden Mantis King sent it a message, saying it wanted to borrow its territory to make a deal with someone.
After asking some questions, it found that it was only a matter of guarding two human children for a period of time, which was not risky, so it readily agreed.
According to the plan, the Golden Mantis King and the blood-robed man should have already returned by now.
But after waiting for a long time, Chicken Volcano still hadn't seen his friend return, and he couldn't help but feel a little worried.
According to the Golden Mantis King, its mission with the Blood-Robed Man was to kill a young boy.
The boy was frail, like an ant, so nothing unexpected should happen.
But things are unpredictable. The Golden Mantis King has not returned, and at this moment, a seemingly weak boy comes looking for them. Chicken Volcano is filled with uncertainty.
Logically speaking, the young man in front of us, dressed in simple clothes, is of low cultivation level and not worth worrying about.
However, it felt that it wasn't that simple. This kid must be extraordinary to dare to walk on the edge of the heart of the battlefield between gods and demons.
"You are looking for my two companions. Have you seen two young men who possess the elements of water and fire appear in the vicinity?"
Xiao Chen said that, according to his perception, the place where Chicken Volcano had previously been located should be the place where the two dragons of Daofeng Mountain were trapped. Since the other party had asked, he would speak frankly.
"Water and fire energies! Could it be that you are the person Brother Mantis mentioned earlier?" Chicken Volcano was surprised. Two young men entangled in water and fire energies—weren't these the two two-legged sheep brought by the two Golden Mantis Kings from his manor?
This boy is the one that the Golden Mantis King said he wanted to kill.
The Golden Mantis King and the Blood-Robed Man have yet to return, and their prey has instead come looking for them; things seem to be going badly!
However, being a ferocious beast with immense demonic power, it wouldn't be afraid of a mere teenager!
"You know the Golden Mantis King?" Xiao Chen's eyes narrowed slightly, a sharp glint flashing in them. Judging from the behavior of the Divine Fire Chicken Lion Beast, he was absolutely certain that it knew the Golden Mantis King, and that the two dragons of Daofeng Mountain were very likely in the hands of this demon.
"So what if we know each other? Tell me, where is my brother right now?" Seeing Xiao Chen's domineering attitude, and seeing that he was not only unafraid but also aggressive, Chicken Volcano felt a surge of anger!
"Kill it! If you don't want to go down and join it, hand over the person you're holding right now!" Xiao Chen said. Although Chicken Mountain was strong, he was not afraid at all. If it weren't for the two dragons of Dao Peak Mountain in his hands, he would have already killed the Chicken Lion Beast with his sword!
"Has this boy gone mad? How dare he disrespect a chicken-lion!"
"Not necessarily. This young man is definitely not simple; he dares to travel alone on the edge of the heartland!"
"It's just a two-legged sheep at the second level of the King Realm, how strong can it be?"
Deep within the demon forest, several powerful demons whispered among themselves. Some thought Xiao Chen was courting death, while others thought he was very bold and might have something to rely on.
Although the hinterland and the outer perimeter are separated by only a river, the level of danger is extremely different, even more so than the difference between stars and candles!
Those are completely two different worlds.
Those who dare to travel alone on the edge of the heartland are either fearless due to ignorance or possess extraordinary skills.
"You dare threaten me?" Flames erupted from Chicken Volcano's body, his anger boiling over, almost burning the sky.
For so many years, no one has dared to speak to it like that!
How dare a weak, immature boy be so presumptuous!
The Golden Mantis King has yet to return, which is quite strange!
But it simply didn't believe that it had been killed by the white-clad youth before it.
The Golden Mantis King is an outer demon lord, and is fully capable of operating on the edge of the heartland.
Such a powerful demon has a profound foundation, making it almost impossible for someone to defeat it by crossing several realms!
The white-robed youth before them was merely a second-rate king. Even with his exceptional talent, he could not possibly kill the Golden Mantis King, a demon lord-level being!
After saying that, Chicken Volcano didn't waste any more words. It stepped on the void with its claws, leaving behind a series of charred footprints, and pressed towards Xiao Chen like a flaming mountain!
