Oronin’s eyes narrowed. His hands quickly formed a seal, and demonic energy gathered before into a massive black shield.
Bang! The tiger claw slammed into the shield, the force so strong that the ground sank several feet. The shield instantly cracked, but it still stopped the attack.
Oronin let out a muffled grunt. Blood appeared at the corner of his mouth, but did not step back.
He suddenly withdrew the shield. With a wave of his hands, countless black strands of demonic energy surged toward Half-Beast King Imorn. forming a huge demonic net in midair that covered him.
Imorn roared and swung his claws, trying to tear the net apart. But the net was incredibly tough. It did not break. Instead, it tightened, holding his body firmly.
“Break it!” Half-Beast King Imorn unleashed all his spiritual energy.
Golden light burst from his body, stretching the net and forcing it to deform.
A flicker of respect appeared in Oronin’s eyes. He formed another seal, and runes appeared on the demonic net, instantly strengthening its defense.
Just as the two were locked in a stalemate. Half-Beast King Imorn suddenly surged with power. Golden spiritual energy erupted like a volcano. Crack! The demonic net was completely torn apart.
He seized the moment and lunged at Oronin, his tiger claws aiming straight for a vital spot.
Oronin shifted in an instant, appearing behind Half-Beast King Imorn. With a single point of his right hand, a black demonic aura shot out like a sharp blade toward Half-Beast King Imorn’s back.
Half-Beast King Imorn reacted quickly, spinning to block it. The demonic aura struck his arm, leaving a deep wound, and the black energy began to corrode his flesh.
“This demonic aura is poisonous!” Half-Beast King Imorn’s expression changed.
He quickly poured spiritual energy into the wound, forcing the demonic aura back.
Oronin did not give a chance to recover. He moved around Half-Beast King Imorn like a ghost, continuously attacking.
For a time, the battlefield was a blur of black demonic aura and golden light, fists and claws crossing in rapid succession. Every collision rang with deafening force, shattering the surrounding rocks and sending up clouds of dust.
“This is intense! Oronin is basically a monster!” Leonel watched from the mountainside, astonished.
He considered himself strong, but in this battle, felt as small as an ant.
Yuliana gripped longsword tightly, palms drenched in sweat. “Half-Beast King Imorn has unleashed his full power, yet Oronin still handles it with ease. How strong is this kid?”
Jared’s expression was grave. He could sense a strange force within Oronin’s demonic aura, far beyond that of an ordinary Demonic Cultivator.
Flaxseed sighed from the side. “I think Oronin has been famous for ten thousand years. He’s just kept his childlike form all this time…”
On the battlefield, Half-Beast King Imorn’s breathing grew uneven. He had launched dozens of fierce attacks but still could not hit Oronin’s vital points. Meanwhile, Oronin’s strange movement technique and poisonous demonic aura had struggling.
“Brat, all you do is dodge? If you have the guts, fight me head-on!” Half-Beast King Imorn roared.
Oronin smiled faintly. “I don’t need a head-on clash to deal with you.”
Before Half-Beast King Imorn could react, Oronin vanished. When reappeared, was above the Half-Beast King Imorn.
His fingers flashed, making a gesture, and his demonic aura surged, forming a massive demonic hammer that crashed down with the force of lightning.
A glint of ruthless intent appeared in Half-Beast King Imorn’s eyes. He no longer dodged. Golden spiritual energy swirled around him, forming a massive golden axe, which swung straight at Oronin’s demonic hammer.
Boom!
The two colossal weapons collided. The shockwave instantly scattered the surrounding dust, and even the cultivators halfway up the mountainside could feel the ground tremble violently beneath their feet.
The force sent both Half-Beast King Imorn and Oronin flying, crashing heavily onto the ground.
Half-Beast King Imorn spat a mouthful of blood, and the golden glow around his body dimmed slightly. Oronin’s face was pale, with a fresh streak of blood at the corner of his mouth, yet his eyes remained sharp and piercing.
