Chapter 919 - 402: Myriad Demons Bow Down, Secrets of the Cultivation Immortality Realm

"Lion King, are you truly going to violate our ancestors’ promise?" the Tiger King bellowed.

"Why should I be bound by an ancestral promise for my entire life?" the Lion King shot back furiously.

"If that is the case, then we shall fight!"

Without another word, the Tiger King’s aura erupted instantly. Behind him, tens of thousands of Tiger Race Demon Beasts roared in unison, their voices shaking the heavens and piercing the clouds.

"Lion King, you won’t stop me today!" Surging with battle intent, the Tiger King’s eyes were filled with ferocity.

At the same time, he sent a secret Sound Transmission to Li Chang’an. "Daoist Li, our two races are evenly matched in strength. While we are locked in a bitter battle, find a chance to approach that wooden cabin. As long as you enter the range of the Beast-Taming Bell’s influence, it will be enough."

The Tiger King was strictly adhering to his ancestors’ promise, planning to send Li Chang’an inside at any cost.

Faced with his resolute attitude to fight to the bitter end, the Lion King suddenly hesitated.

Regardless of victory or defeat, both races would pay a tragically heavy price in this battle. He feared that very few of their respective clansmen would survive. Looking back at the many Lion Demons, the bloodthirsty crimson in his eyes gradually faded.

A moment later, he took a deep breath to suppress his surging emotions, his voice much steadier than before. "Tiger King, I can step aside, but I have a condition."

"What condition?"

"Let this Human Race Cultivator fight me fairly! As long as he defeats me, I will lead all my people to back down!" Staring intently at Li Chang’an as he laid out his terms, the Lion King’s battle intent began to rise again. "I am truly unwilling to just hand over this serendipity! Human Race Cultivator, you must thoroughly convince me!"

Hearing this, the Tiger King turned to look at Li Chang’an. He secretly asked, "Daoist Li, are you confident? If not, just follow the plan I mentioned earlier. There’s no need to fight this fellow alone."

Although he said this, he secretly hoped Li Chang’an would accept the challenge and defeat the Lion King fair and square. That way, he could avoid casualties for his Tiger Race, and the outcome would be much more convincing.

However, the Cultivation that Li Chang’an displayed to the outside world was only at the Early Stage of Golden Core. The Lion King, on the other hand, had been stuck at Quasi-Tier Four for a long time. With his profound accumulation, astonishing Innate Demon Techniques, and incredibly tyrannical Physique, he could easily defeat a Human Race Cultivator at the Golden Core Peak.

The disparity in their strength was simply too vast.

The Tiger King could only pin his hopes on the Tier Four Beast Taming methods. But since he wasn’t a Beast Master himself, he didn’t know just how formidable those methods really were.

At that moment, Li Chang’an spoke up. "Daoist Hu, there’s no need to worry. Just stand aside and watch."

"Alright then."

The Tiger King immediately retreated to the side, clearing the battlefield. He quietly sent another Sound Transmission, informing Li Chang’an of all the Demon Techniques and methods the Lion King knew. "Daoist Li, if you find yourself outmatched, don’t force it."

"Don’t worry. I will definitely win this battle."

As a Nascent Soul Cultivator, it was naturally impossible for Li Chang’an to lose to this little lion.

With a calm expression, his voice rang out across the world. "Lion King, we will do as you say."

"Good! Human Race Cultivator, don’t you regret it!" The Lion King roared. His battle blood instantly boiled, and his terrifying battle intent shot straight into the clouds.

His immense fighting spirit instantly infected the two major races. The Demons all stepped back, every one of them practically vibrating with excitement.

"Fight! Fight! Fight!"

Demon Beasts with a Tier above Quasi-Tier Three bellowed out one after another. Whether they were Tiger Demons or Lion Demons, a hint of crimson appeared in their eyes, and their frenzied war cries were deafening.

This battle almost perfectly satisfied the thoughts of every Demon Beast present. Although the Tiger Race was willing to abide by the ancestral promise, they truly didn’t want to slaughter the Lion Race—whom they had lived alongside for a full ninety thousand years—all for the sake of a Human Race Cultivator.

The many Lion Demons thought much the same. As long as Li Chang’an could defeat their Lion King, they would be utterly convinced and willing to retreat.

Of course, in their eyes, the possibility of Li Chang’an winning this battle was microscopic.

"In this battle, our King will surely win!"

"Our King will surely win!"

"Victory is certain!"

"..."

The roars of countless Lion Demons merged into a single cacophony to cheer on the Lion King.

Amidst this earth-shattering clamor, a trace of worry flashed across Cui Baiying’s beautiful face. "Daoist Li, are you truly going to fight?"

"Yes." Li Chang’an nodded slightly, saying no more.

In the next instant, the battle officially began.

The Lion King’s three lion heads opened their bloody maws simultaneously, and streaks of crimson light surfaced within them. This was one of his most powerful Innate Demon Techniques. He didn’t intend to drag things out; he wanted to defeat Li Chang’an in a single move.

Right at that moment, Li Chang’an suddenly transformed into a streak of light and charged straight at him.

"Human Race Cultivator, you want to compete with me in physical strength?" Seeing this, the Lion King wasn’t shocked, but overjoyed. His greatest advantage was his physical body!

The bodies of the Human Race had always been frail. Even if one cultivated to the Tier Three Peak, they couldn’t possibly be his match.

"As a human, you actually dare to compete with the Demon Race in physical strength? I really don’t know whether to call you stupid or fearless!" The Lion King immediately retracted his Innate Demon Technique, baring his fangs and brandishing his claws as he lunged at Li Chang’an.

In the blink of an eye, one man and one lion collided in mid-air.

BOOM!

The explosive sound shook the heavens and earth, and the entire Secret Realm World seemed to tremble. The terrifying impact transformed into a shockwave that swept out in all directions, blowing countless Low-Tier Demon Beasts away like scattered leaves.

A moment later, the Demon Beasts who barely managed to stay in place all revealed expressions of utter disbelief. They had originally thought that Li Chang’an would definitely suffer a huge disadvantage in this clash of Physiques.

But the reality was that the Lion King was sent flying backwards, vomiting blood before crashing heavily onto the ground below.

Li Chang’an remained completely unscathed. With his long hair fluttering and his vitality surging, he looked like a humanoid demon as he descended from the sky in a flash, slamming a punch directly onto the Lion King’s Demon Body.

BOOM!

The earth quaked as the resounding boom echoed in all directions!

With a cold, ruthless expression, he showed no mercy. Punch after punch, his terrifying fists rained down on the Lion King like meteors from beyond the heavens.
