Chapter 1406: Demon Lion, King of Desolate Beasts

“Boom!” A terrifying crash sounded, shaking the surrounding demon sea as if it trembled.

“Hmm?” Chen Fei squinted slightly, looking over, only to see countless black dots emerging across a slope of charred earth. It was filled with ferocious poisonous snakes.

“Black, Black Phosphorus Blood Pythons.” Chen Ye’s face changed as he looked at the ferocious snakes, uttering in a trembling voice. These demon beasts were entirely blackened, their flesh appeared to be rotting, revealing massive bones that were unusually elongated, and within those bones, a eerie blood glow flickered.

“What? Black Phosphorus Blood Pythons?!” Dugu Qing’s face changed as well, pale and panicked.

“Are these things formidable?” Chen Fei asked.

“Brother Chen, these Black Phosphorus Blood Pythons are notorious fiends in the demon sea! Known for their formidable individual strength and tendency to live in large groups, they present extreme danger even to Mystic Heaven Position experts…”

Xin Cai paused, gradually steadying herself. Though the Black Phosphorus Blood Pythons were formidable, they had Chen Fei with them, and an Ancient King level expert wouldn’t fear such pythons.

Chen Ye also thought of this, smiling silently, calming down.

“We should…” Dugu Qing, ignorant of Chen Fei’s prowess, was completely panicked and shouted out, wanting Chen Fei to quickly leave before those damned creatures fixated on them.

But before he finished speaking, a boom and a roaring sound occurred again, suddenly changing the situation.

“Roar!”

The deafening lion’s roar, terrifying flames, filled the sky, suffocating waves of heat, directly engulfing the countless Black Phosphorus Blood Pythons.

Suddenly, a terribly tragic cry, snake outcry, echoed between heaven and earth.

“This…” Chen Ye, Xin Cai, and Dugu Qing all stood stunned, staring at the scene, wondering what was happening. Could it be that some powerful creature was attacking the nest of the Black Phosphorus Blood Pythons?!

Roar!

Just then, the terrifying lion’s roar appeared again.

Soon, a huge creature wrapped in flames came into view.

However, this flaming large creature seemed big compared to Chen Fei and the others.

It wasn’t comparable to the titanic mountains or hills of the various desolate beasts.

The flaming creature was entirely composed of fire, scarlet stretching to the skies! On its body were sharp spikes, radiant and sharp like blades, flickering with a magical glow.

Besides, this creature appeared exceptionally mighty, baring its sharp fangs, like a king ruling the world.

Additionally, behind it were extremely majestic scarlet wings, presenting a fierce stance.

“Lion?” On seeing the creature, Chen Fei hesitated slightly because, besides the wings and spikes, this thing clearly resembled a mighty and domineering lion.

Nonetheless, the lion creature seemed interesting, possessing an aura and intangible ambiance that even made him feel a bit pressured.

Moreover, Chen Fei noticed that the power of the lion-like desolate beast wasn’t terribly frightening, approximating a Mystic Heaven Position Demon King, but those Black Phosphorus Blood Pythons, deemed killers of Mystic Heaven Position figures by Xin Cai, dared not attack it, seemingly suppressed by its bloodline, quite intriguing.

“What a terrible desolate beast.” Chen Ye and Xin Cai clearly didn’t perceive the lion-like desolate beast’s uniqueness; seeing it casually slaughtering a ‘fiend’ like the Black Phosphorus Blood Python, their mouths gaped open, the shock apparent in their eyes was indescribable.

Apart from them, Dugu Qing had an obvious strange expression.

His gaze was stiff, pupils contracting.

“Desolate, desolate beast king, this is actually a desolate beast king?!”

Dugu Qing stared at the lion-like desolate beast incredulously, eyes splashing with extremely excited emotions.

A desolate beast king, as the name suggests, was the king among desolate beasts, with a supreme bloodline.

The desolate beast race had an extraordinarily rigid bloodline hierarchy, like the lion-like desolate beast slaughtering the Black Phosphorus Blood Python nest now.

It wasn’t about their insufficient strength, but the Black Phosphorus Blood Pythons had their bloodline firmly suppressed by the lion-like desolate beast, a soul-level intimidation, leaving no room for defiance, only escape.

Such was a desolate beast king!

An extremely rare existence among the desolate beast race.

But if they could capture such a creature,

like the Feng Family among the Ten Great Families, who continually held the top combined power rank, they had a desolate beast king; hence their Flying Boat of Demon Sea was never attacked by desolate beasts.

Because the Feng Family’s desolate beast king left its scent mark on each of their Flying Boats of Demon Sea, intimidating the desolate beasts! Ordinary desolate beasts wouldn’t dare attack.

For this reason, the Feng Family’s Flying Boat of Demon Sea always had the most in number; tickets were always the most expensive; island routes were the most abundant, yet in spite of this, their passengers were always numerous.

Because of safety!

“I must capture this desolate beast king for my family!” Almost subconsciously, Dugu Qing’s mind was filled with such emotions.

But then she bit her lip bitterly, calming down; if her guardian were still present, she would risk everything to capture this desolate beast king. However, now she was alone, reliant on others, capturing it was impossible?!

Swoosh!

However, just as this thought flashed through her mind for a moment, a figure beside her shot up into the sky, heading straight for that King of Desolate Beasts, the lion-like Desolate Beast.

It was Chen Fei!

“What’s he trying to do?!” Dugu Qing stared fixedly at Chen Fei, his expression rigid. What is he trying to…?

“Roar!”

The lion-like Desolate Beast, seeing Chen Fei approaching, its eyes as large as bronze bells filled with a chilling blood-red hue.

With a roar, terrifying flames gathered, crackling, a mass of horrifying fiery light condensed directly in the sky. The power of this flame was evidently extremely terrifying, even more so than Chen Fei’s Earth Spirit Flame of the Snake Heart.

Yet, even so, the flame continued to compress, eventually forming into a pitch-black flame sphere, standing there, making anyone’s heart race at a glance.

Chen Fei squinted his eyes and said, “Interesting.”

“Roar!”

Immediately, the lion-like Desolate Beast pounced towards Chen Fei, its claws tearing, while at the same time, the terrifying black flame sphere sealed all directions, descending towards Chen Fei! Falling.

This power was truly overbearing, possessing endless bloodline advantages, savage, extremely formidable.

But at this moment, a brilliant purple barrier encompassed the black flame sphere.

In an instant, the black flame sphere was obliterated.

“Roar!” The lion-like Desolate Beast’s huge pupils contracted, staring intently at Chen Fei, revealing a hint of awe.

Evidently, it now felt that Chen Fei’s strength far surpassed its own.

There was no other way; its current power was at most comparable to a Mystic Heaven Position Demon King. Even as a King of Desolate Beasts, with immense potential, in front of Chen Fei, it was still as weak as a little dog. Not worth mentioning.

“Submit to me, how about it?” A force from within Chen Fei’s body emerged, pressing the lion-like Desolate Beast to the ground, his powerful will invading the opponent’s mind.

“Roar!” The lion-like Desolate Beast went berserk, its eyes blood-red. As a King of Desolate Beasts, its bloodline was supreme, with its own pride, to submit? That was truly an insult.

“Unwilling, are you? Or do you feel dissatisfied, that I am unworthy to be your master? But I believe being able to submit to me is your honor. As a King of Desolate Beasts, your intelligence should not be inferior to humans. So, feel it, my foundation, and my power…”

Chen Fei looked at the lion-like Desolate Beast’s frenzied eyes, seeking help from the Divine Bird of the Celestial Universe within his awareness.

“Little Ancestor, give me a hand, I know you surely have a way.”

One second, two seconds, three seconds…

Boom!

Terrifying will, like a torrent, surged into the lion-like Desolate Beast’s mind, and suddenly, the latter’s eyes contracted, filled with deep terror.

That fear was not ordinary fear, but originated from the soul, from its three spirits and seven souls, a fear completely irresistible.

Much like its bloodline suppression over the Black Phosphorus Blood Python.

Obviously, even though its noble bloodline made it a King of Desolate Beasts, when faced with the renowned Divine Bird and Dragon-Slayer Finch, it was still significantly lacking. Facing the Divine Bird of the Celestial Universe, proud as it was a King of Desolate Beasts, it could only bow its head obediently.

“Roar.” The deep lion roar no longer sounded as frantic and aggressive as before, instead, it carried a hint of submission.

“Thanks.” Chen Fei murmured to himself, then looked at the already subdued lion-like Desolate Beast and gently smiled, “Don’t worry, you won’t regret today’s choice.”

Dugu Qing could recognize this as a King of Desolate Beasts, and naturally, so could Chen Fei.

Moreover, Chen Fei knew that a King of Desolate Beasts emerged once in a millennium, with immense potential, properly nurtured, even in the Saint Realm, it could be prestigious, renowned throughout the world.

Thus, such a good opportunity, of course, Chen Fei would not miss it.

“He actually subdued the King of Desolate Beasts?!” In the distance, Dugu Qing witnessed this scene, stunned for a long time.

But then, her gaze was suddenly filled with intense excitement and a sinister, cunning smile.

“Truly heaven’s help for me, heavens want my Dugu Family to prosper! Once we reach Long Scorpion Island, I’ll stall him while immediately notifying the family experts. By then, this King of Desolate Beasts will be our Dugu Family’s, haha, hahaha…”

The Ten Great Families are rooted in Demon Territory Mountain, so the King of Desolate Beasts’ attraction to them can be described as extraordinarily powerful!

Once they acquire the King of Desolate Beasts, their Dugu Family’s Flying Boats and ships would no longer be harassed by the Desolate Beasts in the Demon Sea. At that time, what would they fear in not having the capital to compete with the Feng Family?!

So, once at Long Scorpion Island, all she needed to do was send the message back, and the family’s experts would surely turn out in full force, using any means necessary, to secure the King of Desolate Beasts.

By then, Chen Fei, the one who dared to defy her, would also deserve to die, wouldn’t he? Haha, hahaha…

In her heart, Dugu Qing’s excitement and laughter felt as though she could already envision the scene of their Dugu Family killing Chen Fei, obtaining the King of Desolate Beasts, and receiving great rewards for her meritorious service.

All of this, all right in front of her!
