Upon hearing Niu Ben's question, he did not dare conceal anything and hurriedly answered.

"Reporting to the King, there are hundreds of large and small Ox Clan branches within the Hundred Thousand Great Mountains, but few are truly worth mentioning."

"The strongest among them is the Yellow Ox Ancestor, a Late Stage Grand Unity Golden Immortal. It is said that he obtained an ancient inheritance, and his physical body is incomparably powerful."

"Other than him, the strongest members of the other clans are merely Golden Immortals. They are nothing to worry about."

Niu Ben nodded after hearing this.

Late Stage Grand Unity Golden Immortal, huh.

His thoughts raced. He had to complete the system mission as soon as possible and obtain that Fragment of Innate Supreme Treasure.

"Alright, I understand."

He looked at his father, Niu Ba, then selected a new Golden Immortal from the Barbaric Ox Tribe to become clan leader and had him join Niu Ba in subduing the other tribes.

"We will split into two groups."

"Father, you and him will lead people to subdue the remaining tribes."

"I will go to the Yellow Ox Clan."

Hearing this, Niu Ba's face showed a trace of concern. "Son, that Yellow Ox Ancestor is, after all, a Late Stage Grand Unity Golden Immortal. You..."

Before he could finish, Niu Ben waved a hand and cut him off.

A flash of white light passed by, and a bone-white bracelet appeared in Niu Ben's hand.

"Father, take this."

Niu Ben handed over the Vajra Bracelet.

"With this, unless a Grand Luo Golden Immortal comes in person, no one will be able to harm you in the slightest."

Niu Ba took the bracelet, and as he sensed the terrifying power contained within it, both his hands began to tremble.

Son, this... this is an Innate Spiritual Treasure!

The way he looked at his son had completely turned into worship.

With this treasure, let alone subduing those small tribes guarded by Golden Immortals, what difficulty would there be in sweeping through the entire Hundred Thousand Great Mountains?

After splitting into two groups.

Niu Ben did not delay in the slightest. With a flicker of his body, he crossed endless mountains and rivers and arrived above the territory of the Yellow Ox Clan.

The mountains here stretched endlessly, and the earth was a deep earthen yellow. Even the spiritual energy carried a dense, solemn quality. It was clearly an excellent Blessed Land.

The moment he appeared, an incomparably powerful aura shot into the sky from the tallest Divine Mountain below, like an ancient giant beast that had been thoroughly awakened from its slumber.

"Who goes there, daring to trespass into my Yellow Ox Clan!"

Immediately afterward, an old man in an earthen-yellow Daoist robe appeared out of thin air before Niu Ben. He was broad and sturdy, his face imposing even without anger.

Late Stage Grand Unity Golden Immortal!

That earth-heavy pressure was enough to make any Early Stage Grand Unity Golden Immortal tremble in spirit.

Yet Niu Ben's expression remained unchanged. Standing with his hands behind his back, he spoke indifferently.

"I am Niu Ben, leader of the Green Ox Clan."

"My purpose here today is simple: to subdue your Yellow Ox Clan."

The Yellow Ox Clan Leader was initially stunned. Then his divine sense swept over Niu Ben.

Early Stage Grand Unity Golden Immortal?

It was as though he had heard some enormous joke, and he could not help bursting into loud laughter.

"Hahaha!"

His laughter shook the clouds into churning, making the entire sky and earth hum.

"Just you? A mere junior at the Early Stage Grand Unity Golden Immortal realm dares to boast of subduing my Yellow Ox Clan?"

His laughter abruptly stopped, and his gaze instantly turned ice-cold.

"Boy, cultivation is not easy for you. Get lost at once, and I can pretend none of this happened. If you dare utter any more nonsense, do not blame me for extracting your soul and suppressing it for ten thousand years!"

Niu Ben seemed not to hear him and merely looked at him calmly.

Seeing him act this way, the Yellow Ox Clan Leader was consumed by rage, and his powerful aura surged several times stronger.

"Good, good, good! Since you are determined to die, I shall grant your wish!"

"You and I will have a fight," Niu Ben finally said, his tone still calm. "If you win, my Green Ox Clan will be at your disposal."

"If you lose, then your Yellow Ox Clan shall acknowledge me as its master."

The Yellow Ox Clan Leader's eyes narrowed, then he sneered.

"Good! You have guts!"

"I shall play with you and let you die convinced!"

"You make the first move." Niu Ben casually waved his hand.

"Courting death!"

The Yellow Ox Clan Leader was completely enraged.

He no longer suppressed his power. With an angry roar, he threw a punch!

There were no flashy techniques in this punch, only power refined to the utmost extreme!

The void trembled as the power of laws transformed into an enormous Golden Divine Ox Phantom. The divine ox seemed to have stepped out of the primeval wilderness, its body wreathed in dense earth laws as it roared and charged viciously toward Niu Ben!

This attack was enough to flatten a Divine Mountain spanning tens of millions of miles!

However.

Niu Ben stood where he was, completely motionless.

He did not even raise an eyelid.

At the instant the Golden Divine Ox Phantom was about to strike him, the earth beneath his feet seemed to merge with him as one.

An incomparably dense Mysterious Yellow Light Screen surged into the sky from beneath his feet, instantly enveloping him.

Earth Vein Dragon Qi roiled across the light screen, and earth laws manifested upon it, as though the power of all the land in the Western Ox Continent of the Primordial Wilderness had blessed it.

Boom!

The Golden Divine Ox Phantom slammed fiercely into the light screen, producing an earth-shattering explosion!

The violent shockwave of energy shredded the clouds for ten thousand miles around into pieces!

Yet the Mysterious Yellow Light Screen merely swayed slightly, without even a single crack appearing.

Niu Ben dusted off nonexistent dirt from his sleeve before finally raising his eyes to look at the Yellow Ox Clan Leader, whose expression had drastically changed. A mocking curve lifted at the corner of his mouth.

"Is that all the strength you have?"

"Did you not eat?"

"You!"

The Yellow Ox Clan Leader shook with rage, his old face turning the color of pig liver.

His furious strike had actually failed to even break through the other party's defense?

How was that possible!

"If you have the skill, fight me! Stop hiding behind your shell like a turtle!" the Yellow Ox Clan Leader roared furiously.

"Alright."

Niu Ben answered.

He took one step forward.

With only that one step, heaven and earth changed color.

The Mysterious Yellow Light Screen around him instantly vanished, replaced by an indescribably terrifying aura that erupted explosively from his body!

It was not mana, nor was it Dao resonance. It was pure physical power taken to the ultimate extreme, savage to the ultimate extreme, as though it could tear apart the nine heavens and crush the netherworld!

The moment this power emerged, the Yellow Ox Clan Leader's prized Late Stage Grand Unity Golden Immortal pressure became like a tiny flame in a violent gale, instantly suppressed until it wavered and nearly went out!

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Dull, thunderous roars rang out from within Niu Ben's body!

They were the roars of the fifteen hundred Earth Fiend Divine Oxen within him, bellowing in unison!

Endless power gathered, turning his body into what seemed like a true Chaos Godfiend. Simply standing there was enough to overwhelm the void, causing it to crack apart inch by inch!

"Th-this... what kind of power is this?!"

The Yellow Ox Clan Leader turned pale with horror. He could feel even his Dao Heart trembling!

This power was far too terrifying!

He had never seen it before, nor had he ever imagined that a Demon Clan creature could cultivate its physical body to such a horrifying extent!
