The Three-Headed Dark Gold Bat King's pupils contracted as he watched Chen Jue take a steady step forward.
An inexplicable sense of humiliation rose from the depths of his heart, as though his royal dignity were being slighted as never before.
After all, everyone else had retreated. Only this Soul Master before him had stepped forward.
His fury instantly boiled over. He opened his enormous maw, lined with razor-sharp fangs, and unleashed a deafening roar.
Where the sound waves swept, space itself seemed to warp. The earth trembled, and the mountains resonated.
Yet faced with a roar powerful enough to cow all living things, Chen Jue remained utterly unruffled, a contemptuous smile curling his lips.
"A mere Mutant Bat dares strut around before me? How laughable!"
With that, his body gave an almost imperceptible shudder. Behind him, as though dawn were breaking, his Dragon God Martial Soul manifested.
Brilliant colors intertwined like the most dazzling aurora in the heavens.
Then his figure became a streak of light, shooting skyward to meet the Three-Headed Dark Gold Bat King without fear.
His momentum soared like a rainbow, his bearing utterly imperious.
Confronted with the sudden appearance of the Dragon God, the Three-Headed Dark Gold Bat King's eyes flashed with astonishment.
Those dazzling colors and that immense aura subjected him to unprecedented pressure.
To defend his kingly honor and territory, he gave a low roar, its sound waves carrying a measure of probing warning.
At the sight, a barely perceptible trace of contempt flickered through the Dragon God's fathomless eyes, as though nothing in this world were worth mentioning.
Then the dragon abruptly unleashed a roar that shook heaven and earth.
That voice contained terrifying might capable of shaking mountains and rivers and cowing every living soul.
