Chapter 990: Battle God
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
With a few attacks, Mo Wen had defeated all the top masters of the Flame Horn Clan. Even the Flame Horn King was stunned, let alone Xiao Jinghe.
Sa’anqi, who was hiding outside of the city a hundred miles away, was also stupefied. Originally, Sa’anqi had thought it was impressive enough for Mo Wen to defeat the Lie Ban Tribe Chief with a single attack. Looking back now, how Mo Wen had handled Bazzle paled into insignificance when compared to his current performance.
These humans were too terrifying. Sa’anqi swore to himself that from now on, he would classify humans as the most dangerous of creatures.
“Flame Horn King, I advise you to hand over the Fire Leaving Diamond and the Phoenix Fire Wood. If we continue to fight, your Flame Horn City will be ruined,” Mo Wen said.
If an all-out war broke out, only the Flame Horn Clan would suffer a loss.
The Flame Horn King’s facial expression was furious. He was already finding it difficult to defeat Xiao Jinghe; now there was an additional person to worry about. On the surface, it seemed like the Flame Horn King had the home advantage. In reality, the imposing manner of these two humans meant that the Flame Horn Clan was in trouble.
If the Flame Horn King remained defiant, the Flame Horn Clan would suffer a great loss, even if they won the battle in the end. Moreover, right now, the Flame Horn King was not confident that they would emerge victorious.
“You humans covet the Fire Leaving Diamond. It’s wishful thinking,” the Flame Horn King said coldly.
The Phoenix Fire Wood could still be negotiated, but the Fire Leaving Diamond was definitely off-limits. The Flame Horn Clan only had two Fire Leaving Diamonds. One was embedded in the Flame Horn Crown, representing the Flame Horn Clan’s highest authority. Another was passed down through the generations of clan leaders and could aid the clan leader in his cultivation.
“If you don’t give it to me, then I will take it by force.” Mo Wen had the face of a rogue that was ready to do whatever was necessary to achieve his goals.
Xiao Jinghe rolled his eyes. Mo Wen acted so righteously even though he was stealing things from others. As expected, he was not to be trifled with. However, Xiao Jinghe was also here to take something that did not belong to him.
“How dare you!” The Flame Horn King was so angry that he flew into a rage. He abandoned his battle against Xiao Jinghe and ferociously pounced towards Mo Wen.
Endless fire shadows surged out. The sky was instantly turned red by the terrifying flame power, and a flame shadow of a Divine Dragon spiraled upwards. Its huge figure enveloped Mo Wen as its ferocious jaws snapped fiercely at him. The inside of its gaping mouth was like a furnace, emanating an unimaginably high temperature. A mountain would most likely be instantly vaporized if swallowed by it.
Roar!
The roar of the beast shocked the heavens and earth. The Flame Horn King was terrifying when he was enraged. The entire Flame Horn City seemed to be melting under his raging flame.
Mo Wen’s mouth twitched, and his body grew bigger at a speed visible to the naked eye. Five meters, ten meters, twenty meters... In the blink of an eye, Mo Wen had grown to be a hundred meters tall.
He was a giant with two heads and four arms. His feet trampled the ground and his head almost reached the heavens. His body was covered with a layer of scales, as dark as the deepest pit. His scales were the fanciest and the most ancient of armors, emanating an unparalleled and imposing aura.
The two-headed hundred-meter-tall giant was covered with armor. This was the true Celestial Body. Right now, Mo Wen did not look like a human anymore; instead, he looked more and more like an unparalleled giant who could trample the ground, headbutt the heavens, and tear the sky apart.
Roar!
The Flame Horn King had not expected that the human would be transformed in such a way. However, he was already halfway through his attack and could not retract it. With an angry roar, his figure doubled in size again. He continued to bite down, seemingly wanting to swallow even the giant into his belly.
A huge hand extended out from the empty space. It reached upwards from below, seemingly able to extend endlessly. The giant hand was huge and was also as fast as lightning, bursting out of the empty space. Before the Flame Horn King managed to react, the hand had grabbed hold of his neck.
“Prostrate yourself.”
An enormous roar burst through the heavens. The huge hand that held the Flame Horn King’s neck furiously crashed downwards.
An astonishing scene occurred. An armored giant grabbed hold of a three hundred meter long snake-like creature as though he was lifting up a small chick. With one hand, he slammed it down hard into the ground.
Rumble!
The sky cracked, and the ground split, causing dust and debris to be stirred up.
The entire Flame Horn City shook as though it was affecting by a massive earthquake. The buildings in the city tumbled frantically while a menacing wind howled continuously.
The Flame Horn King, who was a few hundred meters tall, fell to the ground, creating a deep and huge hole that was ten miles across. Many deep and seemingly bottomless cracks extended from the hole.
A terrifying silhouette stood in the hole like the Immemorial Age Battle God, looking down on everything.
“Surrender the Fire Leaving Diamond, or I will kill you.”
Mo Wen placed one foot on the Flame Horn King, making it impossible for the creature to lift his huge body no matter how hard he struggled. The giant lowered his head and looked down on the Flame Horn King from above. He oozed dominance.
This was the first time that Mo Wen had unleashed the first level of the Celestial Body.
“You... you are bullying others...”
The Flame Horn King lay sprawled on the ground for a long time, unable to get up. He was still trembling inside. The previous scene had made an indelibly deep impression on him. Terror kept welling up uncontrollably inside of him. Was this thing still human? He was like the terrifying demonic figure of the Immemorial Age Battle God. He had unparalleled power as well as wild and ancient ferocity. If he was told that this human was a ferocious creature from the Immemorial Age, the Flame Horn King would believe it.
Against such a ferocious individual, even the unyielding Flame Horn King was cowering in fear. He weakly uttered a sentence that was unfitting of his status.
Right now, Mo Wen was indeed bullying others. He was not to be trifled with.
“You make it seem as though you have never taken anything from others before. Enough with the nonsense. Hand over the Fire Leaving Diamond,” Mo Wen said in disdain.
The Immortal Cultivation world was originally a place of survival of the fittest. This Flame Horn Clan Clan Leader had lived for so long. The evil deeds that he had committed would certainly be more than Mo Wen.
“All your evil deeds will be punished,” the Flame Horn King said fiercely.
“Are you going to surrender it or not?” Mo Wen pressed down on his foot. Immediately, the Flame Horn King began howling in pain like a worm being crushed under the foot of a giant.
“The Flame Horn Clan has always pledged its allegiance to the Ink Scaled King of the Three Great Kings. Are you not afraid that you will anger the King if you treat our Flame Horn Clan in such a way?”
The Flame Horn King continued to struggle. He even mentioned his background support.
But Mo Wen was not at all affected by the Flame Horn King’s speech and stepped on him with his gigantic foot once more
“Are you going to surrender it or not?”
“Aiyo, aiyo. You will regret this.”
“Are you going to surrender it or not?”
“Aiyo, aiyo. You cannot do this.”
...
The entire Flame Horn City fell silent. Everyone stared silently at the Flame Horn King who was bellowing under Mo Wen’s foot. Everyone’s minds went blank, and they were speechless. For a moment, everyone was at a loss of words.
Xiao Jinghe’s mouth twitched continuously. He stared at the saber in his hand. He suddenly felt that the effort that he put into cultivating martial arts all these years had been a waste of time.
Outside of the city, Sa’anqi’s feet were trembling. The visit of such a savage human was not good news for the ancient land. Could it be that this person was planning to turn the preliminary ancient land upside down? Sa’anqi had actually survived being in the hands of such a person. A deep sense of terror welled up in his heart. Before this, when Sa’anqi had provoked him, Mo Wen probably could have killed him with a smack. The fact that Sa’anqi had survived up until now was practically a miracle.
Faraway, a beam of red light flew quickly towards the Flame Horn City. However, the shooting light suddenly stopped. It floated in midair dumbfoundedly, not showing any reaction for a long while.
The beam of light was none other than Bazzle, the Lie Ban Tribe Chief who was rushing to the main city to seek help. However, he had yet to reach Flame Horn City when from a distance he saw that the same human was stepping on his own clan leader, as though he was stepping on a tiny snake.
Bazzle was completely stunned and stood in midair with a stupefied expression. After pausing for a moment, he turned around and flew away desperately, as though he was running for his life. He flew in a rush aimlessly like a headless chicken. He had lost interest in taking revenge on that human. He didn’t want to see him anymore. He only yearned for a safe space where he could hide quietly for a while.
...
“Are you not afraid of death? If you die, all your treasures will be mine, let alone the Fire Leaving Diamond,” Mo Wen said coldly.
Mo Wen only wanted the Fire Leaving Diamond. If he obtained it, he could trade it for the Cold Spiritual Marrow with Wise Man Ku Ji. He didn’t want to take any other items from the Flame Horn Clan. However, if the Flame Horn King remained adamant, it would leave Mo Wen with no other choice but to kill him.
“Are you not afraid of the retribution of the Three Great Kings? Although you are very powerful, far more powerful than I am, the ancient land is full of strong practitioners. Hundreds are more powerful than I am. You would at most rank among the top ten. There is still a big gap between your ability and that of the Three Great Kings.”
The Flame Horn King wore an ugly expression. He tried to use the Three Great Kings to scare off this human.
“Then die. After you die, the Fire Leaving Diamonds will still end up in my hands. If you do not have them with you now, I will turn the entire Flame Horn Clan over until I find them,” Mo Wen said coldly. He used the same method that he had threatened the Lie Ban Tribe Chief with again. Of course, it was not just a threat. If the Flame Horn King was stubborn, it would very likely become a reality at any moment.
As he said this, a huge giant hand extended outwards and furiously grabbed the Flame Horn King’s monstrous head. Without a doubt, the giant hand could easily crush the Flame Horn King’s head into dust.
“Wait. I will give it to you.”
Faced with death, the Flame Horn King was finally afraid. In the end, wealth was still just a possession. Moreover, what this human said was true. Even if he died, he would still not be able to secure the Fire Leaving Diamond.
“Clever.”
Mo Wen smiled as he retracted his hand. The fact that the Flame Horn King was willing to give it to him saved him a lot of trouble.
The Flame Horn King reluctantly handed the two Fire Leaving Diamonds to Mo Wen. The Fire Leaving Diamonds were the most precious things that the Flame Horn Clan possessed. As clan leader, even he had only two of them. One of them was still embedded in the crown.
“Two? I thought the Flame Horn Clan only had one Fire Leaving Diamond. Since you have so generously given me two Fire Leaving Diamonds, then I will be polite and accept them.”
Mo Wen had a smile on his face. Wise Man Ku Ji’s intel had only mentioned that the Flame Horn Crown had a Fire Leaving Diamond. It did not mention that the Flame Horn Clan had two.
Upon hearing this, the Flame Horn King nearly coughed up some blood. He wanted to slap himself. Why had he just surrendered two Fire Leaving Diamonds? Couldn’t he have just given Mo Wen one? Also, the quality of the Fire Leaving Diamond in the crown was much better than the Fire Leaving Diamond he had in his hand. In the huge Red Hot Desert, there would certainly be other Fire Leaving Diamonds in the future. However, it was difficult to say whether another Fire Leaving Diamond of this quality would be produced.
“Hmm, your attitude is good. There is still the Phoenix Fire Wood. Give me some.” Mo Wen nodded his head. Since he had settled the matter of the Fire Leaving Diamond, he did not forget to help out Xiao Jinghe.
