Chapter 667: Might of the Beast God

"Whoosh~"
Like a mountain rushing over, the huge beast dashed toward Hu Lang and Lu Li. Grabbing Lu Li with one hand, Hu Lang hurled him away while he himself swung his axe and hacked at the incoming beast with no fear.
"Bang!"
Reaching out a paw many times larger than a human being, the beast grabbed at Hu Lang's axe. With a muffled explosion sound, sparkles flew around. The huge beast was knocked away for dozens of feet. Hu Lang could no longer hold on to his axe and was smashed away as well. Blood gushed out from his mouth.
"Roar, roar~"
The beast had its paw injured by Hu Lang. It bellowed and rushed toward him. The blue air stream it breathed out seemed to be the sign of a powerful attack.
"Whoosh…"
At the same time, two black dots appeared in the sky to the south. A laughter was heard from afar, "Ha, ha, Hu Lang and that little bastard. Where can you run now?"
"Recluse Solar Dragon, Zhao Moyang!"
Hu Lang turned around and looked. His pale face became even more bleached. He yelled hysterically, "Young Master Li, run. I will try to stall them. If you don't, I will die with regrets."
"Why should I run?"
With that said, the Fate Wheel emerged from Lu Li's abdomen. He dashed to between Hu Lang and the blue sea lion but he didn't take any moves. His eyes glowed in a silver light and something about him made him appear powerful.
"Roar~"
The huge lion was fast. It swung its paw, trying to smash the puny human being. Hu Lang was greatly frightened. He yelled, "Young Master Li, are you out of your mind?"
Lu Li didn't turn a hair. Still, he didn't make any move, except for staring into the blue lion in front of him. The silver light in his eyes was even brighter. There was a stream of air circulating around him, giving momentum to his power.
For some reason, Hu Lang felt that power familiar. He gazed into Lu Li and suddenly had the feeling that Lu Li was no longer a puny human being.
More like a huge dragon!
Hu Lang understood now. The power and qi coming off from Lu Li was the same kind as the one from the silver dragon in the underground palace. The air stream around Lu Li was the dragon's breath.
"Roar~"
The Beast King raised its head and bellowed, smashing down its paw against Lu Li. It was moving so fast that it was about to reach Lu Li's forehead in an instant.
However…
That paw was forced to stop 10 feet away from Lu Li's forehead. Everything became still at this moment.
A beast that was more than 1000 feet in length, as large as a mountain, was faced against a puny human being. This was a visual contrast. At this moment, the beast was about to smash the human to death when it was forced to pause in midair, hesitating. This was odd to the extreme and shocking…
When Hu Lang looked up the beast, he saw the fear in its eyes, which made it stranger. Hu Lang could no longer figure out what was happening.
"Bastard, kneel!"
The silver glare in Lu Li's eyes glistened. If Hu Lang were facing Lu Li, he would see the faint image of two silver dragons hovering in Lu Li's eyes and he could tell that Lu Li was more like a huge human-shaped dragon.
"Roar~purr~"
The blue beast was about to bellow in anger but in the end, it turned out to be a puppy-like sob. Then, amid Hu Lang's stunned looks, the beast bent its four knees and knelt in midair…
"How!"
Hu Lang was struck dumb. He had lived for more than 300 years and this was the first time he ever witnessed something so odd. If it were not for the fact that Recluse Solar Dragon and Zhao Moyang were getting closer, Hu Lang would think that he was dreaming.
Beast King!
Beast Kings were a kind of being that was almost as powerful as Human Sovereign Realm warriors. They were the royals amongst beasts. It was still acceptable that it didn't dare to attack Beast King but how could it kneel in midair after Lu Li's angry shout?
Ridiculous!
Even another Beast King, let alone Lu Li, a human being, could force other Beast Kings to kneel. Only when Lu Li was a Beast God could he force the powerful Beast King to drop to its knees.
"Beast God!"
Hu Lang's eyes glowed, enlightened. He remembered the Beast King from the underground palace, the beast claw that Lu Li consumed!
That beast claw was stunningly powerful, hundreds or even thousands of times more so compared with a Beast King's claw. At that time, Hu Lang had suspicion that the beast claw belonged to a legendary Beast God.
Looking at the scene in front of him, Hu Lang became more convinced of his notion—Lu Li had consumed the claw of a Beast God, which had given him the might of a Beast God. This was why Lu Li could pressure the Beast King to kneel!
The hierarchy amongst Xuan Beasts was strict. Powerful Xuan Beasts could strike awe in regular beasts and only more powerful might could shock Beast Kings.
"Good!"
Hu Lang exclaimed to himself. Recluse Solar Dragon and Zhao Moyang were approaching. Hu Lang yelled to Lu Li, "Young Master Li, can you control the Beast King to attack those two!"
"Let's see!"
Lu Li whooshed up and landed on the Beast King's head. That Beast King roared, feeling humiliated. But Lu Li spread out more power and the blue sea lion's roar was reduced to a purr.
"Strike the two humans!"
Lu Li pointed to Zhao Moyang and Recluse Solar Dragon in the distance. The blue sea lion shook its head, screamed, showing its reluctance. Lu Li kicked the blue sea lion's head and it began to dash toward Zhao Moyang and Recluse Solar Dragon in a rage.
"He really can control the Beast King…"
Hu Lang trembled in excitement. Lu Li could control the Beast King. How impressive was that? Many Beast Kings in the world were slayed but there were still hundreds or 1000 surviving ones.
If…Lu Li could control all those Beast Kings, he would have a strong force, force that could make Royal Families of the Central Plains shudder with fear!
"How, how…"
From the distance, two people whooshed over. They stopped all of a sudden when they saw the huge beast coming toward them.
When they saw Lu Li standing on the beast, they were shocked.
Beast Kings were the royals of beasts. They were extremely intelligent and proud and dignified. Over the course of history, there were humans who attempted to control Beast Kings. That being said, with all the efforts of ancestors, they could only control some low level Xuan Beasts. Controlling Beast Kings was like daydreaming. Nobody had ever tamed a Beast King successfully.
Someone did tame cubs of Beast Kings. When the cubs grew up to real Beast Kings, though, they would leave quietly and return to the forests. The integrity and pride of Beast Kings dictated that they could never accept being human's rides or pets.
To Beast Kings, even if humans had powerful skills and forces, they were puny living things nonetheless. There was no way that Beast Kings would surrender to humans.
Recluse Solar Dragon and Zhao Moyang thought they were imaging things. How could Lu Li stand on the head of a Beast King and control it to attack?
"Roar~"
The blue sea lion bellowed. The blue air stream gushed out from its mouth and turned into a cold current which spread across an area with a radius of 30 miles. Everywhere the cold current was at, the space was frozen. It was astonishing.
"Fall back!"
Recluse Solar Dragon and Zhao Moyang stepped back to avoid being frozen, awed by such shocking skill. But they looked at each other and decided not to run away. They wanted to put up a desperate fight.
This was the last chance they had. Either they killed Lu Li or they would be buried in the ocean.
