The Art of Chaotic Divinity

Chapter 455: Hellfire Beast!

"Do you not know that a man should be viewed with fresh eyes after three days apart?"

Ling Feng silently activated his true qi. Even after unleashing the Lingtian Sword Force, the overwhelming pressure from Yan Jinghong made it hard for him to breathe. He had to unlock the Primordial Locks to slightly ease the pressure.

"Oh? Do you have other methods to enhance your true qi?"

Yan Jinghong squinted, a smile curling at the corner of his mouth. "I must admit, you have grown stronger. But still, you have merely evolved from a small mouse to a slightly bigger one. You are no match for me!"

The despicable donkey's expression turned serious. He leaned his head towards Ling Feng and whispered, "Where did you provoke such a troublesome opponent?"

Ling Feng's eyes twitched. "Even you can't handle him?"

"Ridiculous! I fear no one. However, this person is shrouded in auspicious clouds, indicating great fortune. His fortune is even stronger than yours!"

The donkey's insight far surpassed Ling Feng's imagination. His words were not baseless.

Yan Jinghong glanced at the collapsed Yan Jingfeng. With a wave of his hand, he attempted to rescue Yan Jingfeng.

"Boy, you think you can rescue someone from me?"

The despicable donkey's eyes widened as he shouted, "It's not that easy!"

In an instant, the donkey let out a low roar, his demonic essence surging. He fiercely stomped towards Yan Jingfeng's head.

"A demon king, huh?" Yan Jinghong smiled faintly, unfazed even after realizing the donkey's demon king-level strength.

He pulled out a talisman and ignited it with true fire. The talisman burned, releasing a golden light that enveloped Yan Jingfeng and forcefully deflected the donkey's attack.

"A Vajra Talisman!"

The donkey, well-versed in such matters, raised an eyebrow in regret. "You reckless fool, wasting such a precious item!"

The donkey seethed with hatred. The Vajra Talisman, a one-time use artifact, created an almost impenetrable barrier for a short time. Even with his demon king strength, breaking it was no easy feat.

"It’s just a mere Vajra Talisman. I am the son of fortune, possessing endless heavenly treasures and divine weapons!"

Yan Jinghong turned his gaze to Ling Feng while coldly smiling. "No wonder you dared to face me. Did subduing a demon king give you confidence?"

"Shut your mouth!" The donkey cursed. "What do you mean by 'subduing'? Boy, I'll give you a golden kick! Let's see if you have another Vajra Talisman!"

Ling Feng readied his Eradicator of Realms and was prepared to unleash the Heaven-Slaying Sword Art. Judging by Yan Jinghong's expression, he completely disregarded the demon king. Just how powerful is this man?

As the black donkey's hoof struck out, Yan Jinghong split into three clones, retreating several zhang away.

The donkey roared, his demonic essence shattering one of the clones, but it was merely a decoy.

"Black donkey, your opponent is it!"

Next, Yan Jinghong hovered in midair with wings of true qi. He performed a hand seal, summoning a spirit animal through a pact.

"He has a spirit animal as well!"

Ling Feng's eyes twitched, a sense of unease growing in his heart.

Roar!

A terrifying roar shook the sky. In an instant, a void gate opened before Yan Jinghong, and a colossal hand reached out from it.

That hand was covered in blazing flames... Black flames, no less!

Hum!

The void trembled as a massive creature, over three zhang tall, emerged fully from the gate. With a thunderous crash, it landed on the ground, sending shockwaves that toppled nearby buildings in waves.

Rumble!

The giant creature's arrival seemed to shake the very heavens.

"Hellfire Beast!"

The despicable donkey gasped, his face growing grave.

Even when pursued by the supreme elder of the Tianmeng Auction House, he had never shown such fear.

The Hellfire Beast, known for its violent and brutal nature, left him in disbelief. How could a mere Spiritual Element Realm boy tame a demon king-level Hellfire Beast?

Ling Feng felt the ground shake and quickly unleashed the Mountain Shaking Transformation from the Four Transformations of Eight Desolations. The violent energy shredded his shirt, revealing his powerful muscles.

Lingtian Sword Force!

Primordial Locks!

Eight Desolations Body Refinement Art!

Ling Feng had to unleash his full strength just to remain standing under the Hellfire Beast's oppressive aura.

"What a peculiar black donkey. It even knows even the Hellfire Beast."

Yan Jinghong smirked and beckoned with his hand. "Hellfire Beast, deal with that insolent donkey."

"Yes, Master!"

The Hellfire Beast's deep and raspy voice echoed. Covered in black flames, its blood-red eyes locked onto the donkey.

"Since when did demon kings become so common that even a lowly donkey could attain such status?"

The Hellfire Beast sneered at the black donkey. "Whatever, I'll use your hide to make a hat!"

"What did you say? Woof woof woof!"

Enraged, the donkey barked like a mad dog. "You ugly beast! Look at yourself before thinking you can take my divine hide. Today, I'll turn you into a hellhound with no balls!"

Boom!

The donkey's aura exploded as his body grew, becoming a three zhang tall black donkey. He charged at the Hellfire Beast, front hooves swinging.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The clash of the two demon kings, who were capable of near half-step emperor strength due to their powerful bloodlines, was cataclysmic. The luxurious manor turned into ruins.

Rumble!

Their battle caused an earthquake-like impact, felt even in the imperial capital's outskirts.

The black donkey, a relic from the Tianbai Emperor's era, showed remarkable martial skills. Yet the Hellfire Beast, with its hellfire and brute strength, matched him blow for blow.

Their fight, which affected the entire environment, seemed impossible to resolve quickly.

"Hmph! It's time to settle our old scores! I said I would take back the Essence-Stealing Blood Pearl and your life!"

Yan Jinghong turned his gaze from the demon kings' battle to Ling Feng, his eyes icy cold. Just one look from him made Ling Feng feel like he was plunged into a frozen abyss.
