The martial artist's aura was in disarray, his left hand dangling weakly at his side. It was clear that he had been injured.
The suction of the underground cavern was so powerful that besides Wang Chong, many other martial artists had also been sucked into this complex cavern.
"Buzz!"
Wang Chong immediately charged toward the martial artist. At almost the same time, the martial artist seemed to sense Wang Chong's aura, and a look of pleasant surprise appeared on his face as he rushed toward Wang Chong.
But before he could take more than a few steps, there was a heaven-shaking roar as an enormous figure exuding the aura of a primordial beast appeared behind the martial artist.
Crack! The massive maw opened wide and bit down on the martial artist from behind. Each of those savage teeth was two to three feet long, and they stabbed into the martial artist's body.
"Ah!"
"Save me!"
At the last moment, the martial artist's eyes went wide as he stared at Wang Chong, a deep fear and despair in them.
Roooar! With a deafening roar, the massive beast behind the martial artist grabbed him in its jaws and dragged him away.
"Damn it!"
With no time to think, Wang Chong raised his palm and almost instinctively thrust out a palm. A majestic wave of Stellar Energy howled forward.
Boom! The stone on the ground exploded into a cloud of dust, but the monster had long since vanished.
"Just what was that thing!?"
Wang Chong's expression darkened, his mind extremely grave. That was not a creature that normally existed in the world. No creature could survive so deep underground, and it had even been able to easily dodge Wang Chong's attack.
At Wang Chong's level of cultivation, even if he had been half a beat slower, his opponent would not have been able to escape so easily. The monster's speed was obviously extremely fast.
The surroundings quickly regained their calm, and there was no sound at all. However, there were clearly undercurrents surging in the void, and it was filled with an extremely dangerous aura.
Wang Chong did not dare to be careless and restrained his energy to the minimum. However, in the next moment, without the slightest sign, a strong sense of danger suddenly arose in his heart and grew exponentially. In the blink of an eye, it was so strong that it was suffocating.
Roooar!
That familiar roar once more resounded in his ear, but this time, it did not come from in front of him, but from behind him.
Bang!
In a flash, Wang Chong turned around and immediately retreated. Boundless Stellar Energy surged into his palms as he thrust them at the massive monster.
There was a heaven-shaking boom as the palms collided. The moment they collided, Wang Chong felt like he had struck a sturdy wall. At the same time, a surging energy jolted back at Wang Chong.
Rumble! This enormous energy actually pushed Wang Chong back, and two deep furrows appeared under his feet. As a peak Imperial Great General, this was the first time Wang Chong had encountered an existence that could completely suppress him in terms of strength.
But it was also at this moment that Wang Chong finally saw the true appearance of that massive monster.
This was an extremely savage beast that seemed like an ox but wasn't, like a lion but wasn't. It had a horn on its head and four hooves on its feet. Its entire body was six to seven meters tall and nearly ten meters long. Its skin was hard and thick, and it was covered in layers of black scales. Each scale was about the size of a palm.
"Just what sort of creature is this?!"
Wang Chong's body trembled as he felt an unprecedented shock.
He had never thought that there would be such a terrifying creature in this depth of 16,000 to 17,000 meters underground. Those scarlet eyes, savage fangs, and a strength that surpassed the peak Great General level had completely surpassed his imagination.
… …
"The Dragonbeasts should have awakened by now."
As Wang Chong fought with that unknown beast, he had no idea that at this very moment, many figures were standing at the edge of the pit, looking down into it.
These guardians of the Origin Immortal Treasury had not entered the depths of the pit, and even though they were sixteen thousand meters away, they knew everything that was happening underground like the back of their hands.
"Milord, there are more martial artists underground than we imagined. Can the Dragonbeasts alone really deal with them?"
At this moment, a figure suddenly spoke.
"Hmph, so what if there are more martial artists? Do you think they can deal with the Dragonbeasts that have survived for more than one thousand years from ancient times? "
The leader indifferently said, his expression brimming with confidence.
If Wang Chong were here, he would definitely be stunned. Based on the words of these guardians, these Dragonbeasts were ancient creatures from another era that ordinary people could not contend against.
"… Dragonbeasts are born with strength, and the longer they live, the stronger they get. These are the guardian beasts that were sealed into the abyss when the Immortal Lord died. Their strength has long since surpassed that of this era, and no martial artist can defeat them. "
The leader's eyes were deep, and a thoughtful look appeared in his eyes. It was as if he was thinking back to a long time ago. As the descendant of the Origin Immortal Treasury, the guardian of the treasury, and the leader of this group, he knew far more secrets than anyone else in the world.
Far too many secrets had been lost in the flood of history, and far too many civilizations and creations had vanished in the passage of time. However, not everything would fade with time. There would always be some secrets that would be passed down, and they would continue to exist in unknown places.
These draconic beasts were the products of that long forgotten era.
Their ferocity and brutality were existences that were terrifying and nightmarish even to the top martial artists that stood towering in the world.
"Pay for your greed, ignorance, and stupidity! This time, all of you will have a taste of the deepest terror! No one who enters this place will be able to come out alive. "
The leader muttered to himself. His gaze quickly turned fierce.
"It's about time. Throw down all the Dragon God Leaves and wake them up!"
Hualala!
One of the Origin Immortal Protectors spread open his palm and crushed the jade-like leaves in his hand. Then, through the gaps between his fingers, they fell into the giant pit down below and drifted into the darkest depths.
…
Meanwhile, deep underground, as Wang Chong was doing his best to resist the Dragonbeast's enormous power, the Dragonbeast opened its massive mouth, and a moment later, a scorching flame erupted from the darkness.
The flame flooded the cave and swept toward Wang Chong.
The surrounding temperature immediately soared to six or seven thousand degrees, perhaps even approaching ten thousand degrees. The surrounding cave creaked and began to crystallize. Even the air began to smoke, and the Stellar Energy in Wang Chong's body began to show signs of instability and evaporation.
"Not good!"
Alarmed, Wang Chong immediately shot forward, borrowing the Dragonbeast's enormous strength to shoot forward. With a backward slide, he immediately covered a distance of several dozen feet, increasing the distance between him and the Dragonbeast.
But while Wang Chong was fast, the Dragonbeast was even faster. As Wang Chong used this momentum to retreat, the Dragonbeast appeared in front of Wang Chong like a ghost. Awooo!
The dangerous aura reached its peak, and before Wang Chong could stabilize himself, a massive maw rapidly expanded in front of Wang Chong's eyes and bit down on his body. Those sharp teeth looked even sharper than swords and sabers.
Wang Chong's heart chilled, and with no time to think, his dantian exploded as he used the Great Yin Yang Art. Rumble! There was a flash of light, one yang and one yin, one sun and one moon. Two completely different energies of extreme Yin and extreme hardness appeared, and they began to rapidly revolve around Wang Chong's hands.
"Boom!"
There was an earth-shattering noise, and the destructive energy that was enough to shatter heaven and earth rapidly burst out of Wang Chong's body and violently bombarded the body of the Dragonbeast that was six to seven meters tall.
However, something that shocked Wang Chong happened. The Great Yin Yang Art was Wang Chong's most powerful unique skill. It gathered the power of extreme Yin and extreme hardness, and even a mountain could be easily shattered.
Even steel could be crushed into soft mud, or even shattered into powder.
But when this Great Yin Yang Art landed on the body of the Dragonbeast, it could only stop its body for a moment. In fact, Wang Chong could even sense that at least seventy percent of the power of this move flowed off the Dragonbeast's body like water, causing no harm at all.
"Breaking Defense!"
In a flash, a thought flashed through Wang Chong's mind, and he instantly understood what was going on. It was like a bucket of ice water had been poured over his head, and Wang Chong's heart instantly turned icy cold.
This Behemoth was not only naturally massive, possessing strength surpassing that of a peak Great General, but its body was also extremely strange, possessing an innate ability to break through Defense. To a martial artist, this was their worst nightmare.
At that moment, Wang Chong suddenly understood why those martial artists had died so silently. It wasn't that they hadn't tried to resist, but that their resistance had been like scratching an itch to this terrifying Behemoth.
Swish!
