Watching Chao Tianxiang flee in panic, Lin Xiao withdrew the red light from his right palm.
If Chao Tianxiang dared say another word, the Asura Divine Sword would slit her throat in a single strike!
"Oscar, absorb the spirit ring." Lin Xiao did not waste words as he turned to look at Oscar.
"Yes." Oscar gripped the dagger in his hand and killed the Phoenix-tail Crested Serpent beneath him with one strike.
As Oscar absorbed the spirit ring, Dai Mubai and the others spread out on their own, vigilantly watching their surroundings.
Zhao Wuji said in a low voice, "Your Excellency, Dragon Duke may be nearby. Their Martial Soul Fusion Skill may be able to rival a Title Douluo. Why didn't you kill Snake Dowager directly just now?"
"My killing intent isn't that strong." Lin Xiao glanced at Zhao Wuji. "If Chao Tianxiang had insisted on persisting, she would already be a corpse."
Zhao Wuji scratched his head and gave a foolish grin. His killing intent wasn't that strong? When Canghui Academy had died miserably in the tavern, he had seen it all clearly.
Time passed second by second. Before long, Oscar had completely finished absorbing it.
Dai Mubai and the others gathered around him. Just as they were about to ask about his spirit skill, a disturbance suddenly arose deep within the forest.
Zhao Wuji's expression shifted slightly as he looked up at the countless flying spirit beasts in the sky. It was as though they had seen something, and they fled in mad panic.
Lin Xiao did not panic. He picked up his wine jug and took several deep gulps.
"Everyone, get behind me immediately. If anything happens, Mu Bai, lead everyone out of the Star Dou Great Forest as quickly as possible!"
Seeing the grave expression on Zhao Wuji's face, Dai Mubai also realized that something was approaching. He hurriedly assumed an attacking stance and protected Oscar and the others behind him.
At that moment, the surrounding space seemed to freeze, and everyone's expressions stiffened even further.
Accompanied by an angry roar, an incomparably massive black-red creature leaped into the air, instantly blocking out the moonlight.
Its enormous body arrived behind them in almost an instant. Without another word, Dai Mubai turned around.
The moment he saw the spirit beast, his expression finally changed.
The creature's powerful muscles made it appear even more formidable. As it arrived, even the air around them seemed to solidify, making it hard to breathe.
Even more unexpectedly, every small spirit beast tucked its tail and scurried away in all directions beneath that aura.
It was as if they were terrified of this spirit beast.
Zhao Wuji sucked in a cold breath. He had never dreamed that he would encounter such a terrifying spirit beast in this godforsaken place.
He knew all the spirit beasts of Douluo Continent, yet he had never expected to encounter a top-tier spirit beast at the edge of the forest!
"The King of the Forest... the Titan Giant Ape!" Zhao Wuji's voice trembled slightly.
The King of the Forest, the Titan Giant Ape, was one of the top spirit beasts in the Star Dou Great Forest. A hundred-year spirit beast could contend with an ordinary ten-thousand-year spirit beast, but by Zhao Wuji's judgment, this Titan Giant Ape had clearly surpassed the cultivation of a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast.
Its elder brother was an even more terrifying existence.
Moreover, he knew that Tang Hao had once been the only person capable of defeating the Titan Giant Ape. That meant this spirit beast possessed at least the strength of a Level 96 Title Douluo.
Perhaps even greater.
Other than Lin Xiao, everyone else carefully retreated, afraid of angering the Titan Giant Ape.
The Titan Giant Ape sensed the fear of Zhao Wuji and the others, and immediately bent its limbs and crouched on the ground.
Zhao Wuji stepped in front of the others first and said respectfully, "Honored King of the Forest, we mean no offense. If this is your territory, we will leave at once."
This Titan Giant Ape had already reached a hundred-thousand-year cultivation, so it naturally understood human speech. Especially faced with the terrifying aura before him, Zhao Wuji broke out in a cold sweat.
The Titan Giant Ape ignored Zhao Wuji's obsequiousness and instead made a simple motion. It stepped forward and stared coldly at Lin Xiao and Xiao Wu behind him.
"Roar!" The Titan Giant Ape roared again.
"Mu Bai, take everyone and go! Hurry!" Knowing the severity of the situation, Zhao Wuji hurriedly roared at Dai Mubai beside him.
The King of the Forest, the Titan Giant Ape, was an overlord among spirit beasts.
If Tang San and the others did not leave quickly, these children would likely all die at the hands of this huge beast.
Zhao Wuji roared as all seven spirit rings on his body lit up at once. Gravity Enhancement and the Immovable Ming King Bodyguard Shield were both activated, and his right hand swung heavily toward the Titan Giant Ape.
With a thunderous boom, Zhao Wuji's enormous bear claw slammed directly into the Titan Giant Ape's massive body.
Yet no matter how much strength Zhao Wuji used, the Titan Giant Ape seemed completely unaffected.
With a casual wave, Zhao Wuji's body shot away like a cannonball. He crashed through more than a dozen trees before finally coming to a stop.
"Xiao San, get out of here! Take the injured Teacher Zhao and retreat quickly! Hurry!"
Dai Mubai could not help roaring as he charged toward the Titan Giant Ape. The White Tiger Bodyguard and White Tiger Vajra Transformation were unleashed simultaneously.
But before the Titan Giant Ape, he was clearly no more than an ant.
Lin Xiao shrugged and took a large step forward. "Beast."
The Titan Giant Ape turned its head. It could hardly believe its ears. A human had actually called it a beast.
As a blood-red light flashed, a longsword appeared in Lin Xiao's palm.
The sword was three feet and three inches long, entirely blood-red, with strange inscriptions carved into its blade. The blood dragon totem on its hilt in particular was enough to make one's scalp tingle at a single glance.
"Get back into the depths of the Star Dou Great Forest! Otherwise, die!"
The Titan Giant Ape braced itself on its legs and hammered its chest wildly with its fists, releasing a roar from its mouth.
"Ignorant fool." Lin Xiao stepped through the void, walking toward the Titan Giant Ape one step at a time. Though his body was comparatively tiny, once a faint blood-red phantom appeared behind him, the Titan Giant Ape could no longer gain any advantage.
A trace of terror appeared between the Titan Giant Ape's brows. Before it could react further, the blood-red phantom behind Lin Xiao had already raised its longsword and slashed down.
Wherever the terrifying blood-colored sword passed, it left behind a massive ravine.
The Titan Giant Ape raised both arms to block the blood-colored sword at close range.
With a splat, a gash was forcibly carved into the Titan Giant Ape's left arm, and blood gushed from the wound.
It was not that Lin Xiao had held back, but the Titan Giant Ape's body was simply too tough. His own strength was only at the Spirit Emperor level; this was already his strongest combat power.
Xiao Wu cried out in shock from the distance, covering her little mouth as tears streamed down her face uncontrollably.
Not only that, Tang San, Dai Mubai, Zhao Wuji, and the others all sucked in a cold breath. The left arm of the Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast Titan Giant Ape had actually been severed?
Lin Xiao snorted coldly, unable to suppress his delight. As expected of a god-level bloodline. This feels incredible!
