Indestructible Golden Body, Hard Against Hard!

"Councilor Li has engaged the Devourer Beast!"

Inside the top-floor conference hall of the War God Palace, everyone stared at the screen with tense expressions.

Although they already knew Councilor Li's speed far exceeded that of the Starry Sky Behemoth, no one could say for sure what the final outcome would be until the battle actually began.

They could only hope that Councilor Li would be able to slay this Devourer Beast.

Pacific Ocean.

The deep, pitch-black seawater roared madly; the sea winds howled, and the world was shrouded in gloom.

Man and beast stood a thousand meters apart, locked in a standoff.

The Devourer Beast hovered in mid-air, its dark golden eyes coldly watching the human, who looked like a mere ant in the distance.

"Whoosh!"

Five golden beams of light suddenly shot out from the Devourer Beast's front claws.

In an instant, Li Qingxu extended his arm and tapped a finger, sending five streaks of golden divine power shooting outward.

"Boom!"

It was as if ten hydrogen bombs had detonated in the sky; the massive golden radiance seemed to eclipse the white moonlight.

Terrifying energy fluctuations swept outward, causing the sea surface below to surge into waves hundreds of meters high.

Li Qingxu stood upon the air, his body unmoving. As the energy ripples swept past, his long black hair danced wildly, and his white robes snapped in the wind.

A trace of mockery appeared in his eyes, which were as pure as a clear spring.

"Roar!"

The Golden Horned Beast's dark golden eyes looked down at the tiny speck in the distance, and it let out a furious, maddened roar.

According to its inherited memories, as long as it reached the Star Level, this planet would pose no threat to it—which was precisely why it had waited until reaching the Star Level to leave the sea.

Yet now, it actually felt provoked by a human ant!

However, before it could take action.

The next moment.

Li Qingxu's blood surged like a river, and within his bright red blood, some began to transform into golden blood.

The golden divine power of his Sacred Body erupted from his frame, and he stood there like a golden god of war.

"Hum!"

Li Qingxu took the initiative. The Secret of Movement was peerless in its speed, and he transformed into a beam of light as he charged forward.

His golden fist seemed to shatter space, emitting a violent tremor as it slammed solidly into the head of the Golden Horned Beast.

"Clang!"

It sounded like a dull, thunderous explosion, or as if dozens of bronze bells had been struck simultaneously.

Visible energy ripples surged violently, rushing outward like a tidal wave.

The sea below surged into massive waves over a thousand meters high.

The Golden Horned Beast's massive body, over a hundred meters long, was sent flying thousands of meters away by that single punch.

"Roar!"

The Golden Horned Beast shook its head, a flicker of daze passing through its eyes before they were once again filled with rage and brutality.

"You're quite tough."

Li Qingxu glanced at his golden fist, which bore three distinct marks.

A faint, stinging pain radiated from his knuckles.

How long had it been?

How long had it been since he had felt pain in his own body?

"Hahaha..."

Accompanied by a hearty laugh, Li Qingxu's figure vanished from where he stood.

The next instant, he appeared directly in front of the Golden Horned Beast.

His golden fist grew larger and larger in the beast's eyes, slamming once more into the head of the Golden Horned Beast with a solid impact.

"Wuu!!!"

The Golden Horned Beast let out a roar of fury.

The golden secret patterns on the horn of the enraged beast suddenly lit up, and its eyes turned a dazzling gold.

The golden light raced along its neck and back, quickly surging into its front claws. With a sharp swish, the claws slashed directly at the tiny human before it!

"You are too slow."

In the split second before the sharp claws could strike, Li Qingxu's figure had already vanished.

Descending like a celestial god, he stepped down heavily, planting his foot firmly onto the back of the Golden Horned Beast.

In an instant, the shoes beneath his feet crumbled into powder.

"BOOM!"

The Golden Horned Beast, having missed its attack, felt a sharp, searing pain in its back as several scales fell away, accompanied by a spray of blood.

Its massive body was sent hurtling like a beam of light, kicked deep into the waters of the Pacific Ocean.

"Hiss~"

Li Qingxu drew a sharp breath, his expression strange.

The scales on the back of this Golden Horned Beast were truly hard—several times tougher than those on its head.

This Devourer Beast belonged to the metal element, which naturally granted it superior defensive scales.

Not to mention that as a Golden Horned Beast that grew by consuming and absorbing metal, its defense was even more monstrous.

Yet, Li Qingxu remained utterly fearless, pitting his human flesh against it in a direct, brutal collision!

Under the cover of night, the gale howled, and the deep sea churned violently, sending waves hundreds of meters high into the air.

"BOOM!"

The Golden Horned Beast lunged out of the seawater, though the golden secret patterns on its sharp horn seemed slightly dimmer than before.

However, its dark golden eyes burned with even greater madness—a madness born of suppressed rage!

Looking at the ant in the sky, it felt an intense fury that such a weak human had actually managed to injure it.

The nobility inherent in its bloodline filled it with absolute arrogance!

Across the vast universe, it belonged to one of the most pinnacle bloodlines. On this puny planet, a weak human dared to challenge it.

"BOOM!"

The Golden Horned Beast's scaled wings fluttered slightly, and it instantly transformed into a streak of light, flying straight toward Li Qingxu.

In the meeting hall of the War God Palace, the images on the screen were moving too fast for ordinary people to follow.

In a Star Level battle, even the naked eyes of War God Level fighters could not keep up; they could only rely on the replays, slow-motion footage, and the commentary provided by the Planetary Level powerhouses present.

On the scene, only the Planetary Level martial artists could barely keep pace.

"My god, Councilor Li is completely suppressing that Devourer Beast!"

"We're going to win! I knew Councilor Li's strength surpassed this Devourer Beast."

Many people in the hall were shouting in excitement.

Even Hong and Thor felt the same; if Li Qingxu could win, they wouldn't have to risk their lives to gamble on a future for humanity.

"Luo Feng, are you sure that swindler is really one of you Earthlings?"

Babata watched, stunned.

"Of course he is."

Luo Feng stared at the battle footage without blinking, responding absentmindedly.

He clearly didn't understand what Babata was specifically asking.

"No, don't you see it yet? That swindler is competing with the Golden Horned Beast in terms of physical strength! This is simply inconceivable."

"The power of the Golden Horned Beast's claw just now was enough to easily tear through a Black God Set, yet he took it head-on with his bare body. How could his Earthling bloodline possibly achieve that!"

Babata couldn't wrap its head around it.

How could such a human appear on Earth? It simply shouldn't be possible.

In terms of bloodline, even the most pinnacle human bloodlines were not as noble as that of the Golden Horned Beast.

Yet, Li Qingxu's physical body could actually rival the Golden Horned Beast, and perhaps even slightly surpass it.

This completely exceeded Babata's understanding.

"And this Golden Horned Beast, despite being one of the most pinnacle bloodlines among the Starry Sky Behemoths, is being beaten down by that swindler. It's so naive; its combat techniques are truly abysmal."

Babata said, finding it hard to watch.

Indeed, given the Golden Horned Beast's strength, talent, and so on, if its techniques were better or if it were slightly smarter, it would never have ended up in this state.

But this Golden Horned Beast had only been born for a little over a year.

"Oh no, Councilor Li has been hit!"

"That Devourer Beast actually predicted where Councilor Li would appear."

The meeting hall erupted into chaos.

But what they didn't know was that Li Qingxu had let himself be hit on purpose.

If he didn't take a few hits, he wouldn't be able to keep up the act.

This Golden Horned Beast was far weaker than he had imagined, and in terms of combat technique, it was a complete novice.
