Chapter 850: Beast Kings



"Beast King?" Jabba frowned slightly as he watched the massacre unfolding in front of him.

The Battle of the North had been going on for several hours already, and in it, the true power of the Nihari Giants' Ancestor, the person who had managed to unify the entire Northern Region with just a few words, had been revealed.

Holak alone, as someone who had broken through the physical limits of physical strength and reached the half-step of World Cataclysm Realm, possessed a devastating power that could easily keep the three Marshals busy, and apparently if there were three other Marshals, he would have fought them without a problem.

The only reason that Level 49 Celebus, along with The Level 48 Xanox and Serpal, could keep him busy for a little while was the Minor Corrosion Law that forced Holak to take a few seconds of his time to deflect their attacks away... and yet he was able to easily fight them and most of the fleet generals beside them without breaking a sweat.

And if that wasn't enough, the great wyvern Krixus showed off his strength that had terrorized the Northern Region for hundreds of thousands of years, he was currently fighting the same numbers as Hulak and maybe more, with his height of over sixty meters and the massive area his wings occupy, he flies across the entire battlefield without paying attention to anyone, he simply attacks anything that stands in front of him and doesn't care about the attacks of the Minor Corrosion Law as they collide with his scales!

The presence of Holak and Crixus as unstoppable powerhouses was the reason behind the Northern Region's army holding out for several hours, whenever the army was close to falling, Holak or Crixus would appear to solve the problem immediately and resume the battle.

Of course, during this time, Holak was trying to talk the Marshals into stopping and turning back, promising them all kinds of temptations, but to no avail...

The two sides were too focused on the Northern Edge Mountain to think of something else. ...Beside Jabba, Marshal Lacrosse pointed towards the Wyvern, meanwhile, it was surrounded by over forty Martial Emperors but he didn't seem to be suffering much, "That thing is undoubtedly the king of the beasts of this planet, he has the same status as our Durger the Devourer, his strength isn't far from him either... but I still don't understand what law he's using!"

That terrifying blue flame is reaping souls left and right, everyone who touches it lets out a terrifying scream as if they have fallen into the depths of hell, but isn't it just a flame after all? What's with this violent reaction? And the strangest thing is that that blue flame burns the attacks of the Corrosion Law!!

He sighed and continued, "That's why you rarely find decision-makers care about beasts and don't try to get rid of them completely, because the cost of doing something like that would far outweigh just letting them destroy a city or village every once in a while... At the same time, you'll find beasts are the main concern and sworn enemy of the poor and mortals, and the main reason they hate their rulers, you could say they're a local enemy that can't be avoided."

"...Why are you telling me all this? I only asked you about the Beast Kings." Jabba furrowed his brows slightly, of course, he didn't like being yelled at.

"Beast Kings... Beast Kings..." Marshal Lacrosse muttered a little as he followed the wyvern's flight, "As you know, we, the Great Serpent Empire, have set foot on 9 planets if we count The Poison Rock, and among them, there were only two Beast Kings, the first being the Great Serpent Durger the Devourer on our home planet and the second being the Three-Tailed Ice Fox on the planet Godah... and here we are watching the third."

Jabba regained his curiosity again, he had heard a lot about the Great Serpent Durger the Devourer, from what he understood the entire army of the Great Serpent Empire needed to move against him in order to harvest a few barrels of blood... Did their Crixus have that

power?!

"The Beast King is a term given to a beast that has gained awareness and intelligence comparable to ours, broken through the planet's spirit manipulation barrier, and can communicate directly with the planet's spirit... That kind of beast has power, knowledge, and intelligence, and gains the respect of the rest of the beasts, it's a real nightmare."

The Marshal put his hand behind his back, "As for their upbringing, it varies from one planet to another. Sometimes the planetary spirits empower a certain beast to the point it eventually escapes from their control. Sometimes the beast itself gets lucky and finds something that empowers its bloodline even more and brings it closer to its ancestors. Some are born with a strong law by pure chance after two parents with different laws mate... The reasons are many, but the result is the same: an extremely hard body, a high-status law, and high intelligence. The only thing that suppresses them is the absolute law that does not allow them to surpass the level of the strongest intelligent being, as long as it is still in the Young Planetary Belt at

least."

Then the Marshal pointed at the screen, "But look at that, does that thing recognize levels? Who below the level of a World Cataclysm can kill it? Even worse, Beast Kings break the law that prevents them from breaking through the moment they enter the Middle Planetary Belt! Can you imagine that thing being in the World Cataclysm Realm?! There's a saying in the Intermediate Planetary Belt that says if you have a choice, you should always avoid a planet that has a Beast King, it's not worth the trouble."

"You believe that saying? You should avoid a planet that has a Beast King..." The Marshal repeated his words again and gritted his fangs, then shouted loudly, "Then why the hell is that local bastard riding one?!"
