East Sea Fierce Beast Remnants—Kill, Kill, Kill! Testing the Edge of the Sword!

"Go!"

With Lin Zhu's loud shout, the two were just about to take flight when they realized it was already too late.

Shadows flickered all around them as Fierce Beasts emerged from nowhere, surrounding Lin Zhu and Xuan Du at the center.

Lin Zhu swept his gaze around, a grave expression appearing on his face.

These should be Ancient Ferocious Beasts.

When he had noticed the baleful aura churning through the area, he had already felt some hesitation.

Before long, he had realized that Fierce Beasts must be lurking here.

But he had not expected there to be so many of them.

Back then, Fierce Beasts had run rampant throughout the Primordial Wilderness.

The Four Great Ferocious Beasts under Beast Emperor Shenni commanded the Ferocious Beast Clan.

These Fierce Beasts were incomparably savage and ruthlessly violent, plunging the Primordial Wilderness into endless warfare and dreadful calamity.

Many Primordial divine beings had been exterminated and hunted by the Ferocious Beast Clan.

Later, seeing the Fierce Beasts wreak havoc, causing endless chaos and the fall of Primordial divine beings, the Hundred Clans of the Primordial joined forces to annihilate the Ferocious Beast Clan.

In the end, Zu Long, Yuan Feng, and Shi Qilin of the Primordial Three Clans took the lead, while Great Divine Power practitioners such as Hongjun and Yang Mei Daxian also joined the final battle against the Fierce Beasts.

That battle lasted countless years. In the end, Shen Ni fell beneath Buzhou Mountain, and the Four Great Ferocious Beasts perished.

Thus, the Ferocious Beast Clan was exterminated.

In contrast, the Primordial Three Clans rose to prominence from then on, becoming the rulers of the Primordial World.

Later, the great calamity unleashed by the Fierce Beasts came to be known as the Ferocious Beast Calamity.

However, although the Ferocious Beast Clan had been exterminated, some survivors had still escaped into the Primordial World. Unexpectedly, they had gathered here.

By chance, Lin Zhu and Xuan Du had entered the Ferocious Beast Nest and disturbed the Fierce Beasts hiding within.

After assessing the strength of these Fierce Beasts, Lin Zhu felt much more at ease.

The powerful Fierce Beasts of old had been too conspicuous and had all been slain by the powerful experts of the Primordial Wilderness.

Only the weaker ones, whose baleful aura was faint, could evade the searches of those Great Divine Power practitioners and Great Powers.

Most of these Fierce Beasts were at the True Immortal Realm and Profound Immortal Realm.

With the strength of the two of them, escaping would not be particularly difficult.

"Senior Brother, what should we do?"

Xuan Du, who had never encountered such a situation before, could not help but panic somewhat.

Lin Zhu said, "Don't panic. You and I will fight with everything we have. Use the Taiji Diagram to protect us both!"

"These Fierce Beasts should not be able to break through the Taiji Diagram's defenses."

"Once I kill these Fierce Beasts, I will surely gain some Merit."

Seeing Lin Zhu so confident, Xuan Du also calmed down.

Roar!!

At that moment, the Fierce Beasts all roared in fury and pounced fiercely at the two of them.

Fierce Beasts were born bloodthirsty!

Thus, without asking why, they sought to tear the two apart, their violent killing intent surging like a tide!

The fastest was a Fierce Beast with a blood-white body. It resembled a tiger, yet its maw gaped wide. In an instant, it had reached Lin Zhu.

With a flick of his hand, the Qingping Sword appeared in Lin Zhu's grasp, and he swung it straight at the beast.

Though Lin Zhu was not particularly skilled in swordsmanship, Tongtian had taught him the profound mysteries of the sword, giving him an extremely high level of control over the Sword Dao.

Moreover, the Qingping Sword was a Top-Grade Primordial Spiritual Treasure with boundless power!

As Lin Zhu slashed out, white mystic light shot into the heavens and swept through the void!

Caught off guard, the Fierce Beast at the True Immortal Realm was cut into two by Lin Zhu's sword.

Yet this bloody sight did not stop the other Fierce Beasts. Instead, they let out frenzied roars and pounced at the two men.

Several Fierce Beasts even turned toward the white beast's corpse, devouring it in just a few bites.

They were savage beyond measure!

At this moment, Xuan Du also made his move.

He chanted True Words and raised the Taiji Diagram.

Light flashed upon the Taiji Diagram as its two yin-yang fish continuously revolved, forming an enormous Taiji pattern that enveloped the two of them.

The Taiji Diagram could not only attack, but also defend.

As a Primordial Treasure, Xuan Du could not unleash the Taiji Diagram's full might, but it was enough to prevent these Fierce Beasts from getting close to either of them.

This was also the source of Lin Zhu's confidence in challenging these Fierce Beasts.

The moment the Taiji Diagram was deployed, the two of them stood in an invincible position.

Roar!

The Fierce Beasts roared in unison.

Then, they launched fierce attacks, only to be blocked outside by the Taiji Diagram.

Seeing this, Lin Zhu was overjoyed.

With a sharp wave of his hand, he raised the Violet Lightning Hammer.

He chanted the True Incantation and struck it into the Violet Sky Hammer. The Violet Lightning Hammer immediately let out a whistling cry and shot into the sky.

In the void, it transformed into an enormous War Hammer over a zhang long.

Endless purple currents of electricity surged across the Violet Lightning Hammer, producing sharp crackling sounds.

As Lin Zhu cast the True Incantation, endless lightning radiance surged from the Violet Lightning Hammer.

Countless bolts of purple lightning poured forth from the Violet Lightning Hammer like spirit serpents, striking directly downward and nearly covering an area several miles wide.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

The Fierce Beasts attacking Lin Zhu and Xuan Du seemed to sense the Violet Lightning Hammer's power as well.

However, they were incomparably savage and did not retreat.

Amid thunderous explosions—

The Fierce Beasts were struck one after another by purple lightning.

Violet Palace Divine Lightning was inherently the bane of Fierce Beasts.

Struck by the purple lightning, those Fierce Beasts at the True Immortal Realm and Profound Immortal Realm were instantly blasted into powder and vanished.

Only then did the remaining Fierce Beasts recognize its power. They let out shrill roars and fled into the distance.

Lin Zhu showed them no mercy, pursuing them together with Xuan Du.

Afterward, the two continued slaughtering Fierce Beasts across the island.

The Ferocious Beast Clan was not tolerated by the Heavenly Dao and was suppressed by it. Killing Fierce Beasts could earn Merit.

Every time Lin Zhu killed a Fierce Beast, he felt Merit enter his body.

This was an excellent opportunity to earn Merit.

Besides, Fierce Beasts were bloodthirsty by nature. If they were allowed to grow stronger and leave the Ferocious Beast Nest, they would inevitably bring about another great calamity!

The two continued slaughtering Fierce Beasts and remained on the island for several decades.

Countless thousands upon thousands of Fierce Beasts died at their hands.

Lin Zhu also gained quite a bit of Merit as a result.

Just as Lin Zhu and Xuan Du were pursuing the Fierce Beasts, a powerful aura suddenly surged forth from the Ferocious Beast Nest.

Boom!

Then, a Fierce Beast over a hundred zhang tall came pouncing out. In an instant, it reached Lin Zhu and Xuan Du.

"This Fierce Beast has such a powerful aura!"

Lin Zhu and Xuan Du hurriedly stopped and looked toward the enormous Fierce Beast.

The Fierce Beast resembled a male lion, but its body was hairless. Its four legs were thick and sturdy, like four enormous pillars.

Its two blood-red eyes, as large as bronze bells, stared fixedly at Lin Zhu and Xuan Du.

Its exposed fangs were several zhang long.

Lin Zhu had no doubt that this Fierce Beast could swallow him and Xuan Du in a single bite.

From its aura, he could tell that this Fierce Beast had reached at least the Golden Immortal Realm—perhaps even beyond it.

"Senior Brother, what do we do?"

Xuan Du felt somewhat flustered as he asked.

Lin Zhu said, "The two of us have already killed countless Fierce Beasts and formed a Karmic Bond with the Ferocious Beast Clan!"

"Even if we try to flee, I fear this Fierce Beast will not allow it. So we can only fight!"
