Golden Horned Beast vs. Undying God

This flame, imbued with the Law of Fire, could only be effortlessly manipulated by an Undying God who had truly comprehended the Law of Fire. The domain spread by this flame… was a divine kingdom, a true Law Domain! Although it couldn't compare to a genuine divine kingdom, it was at least far stronger than a peak Sector Lord's 'World Projection'.

When Undying fought Undying, some were Fire Gods, some Earth Gods, some controlled fire, others earth—these were all Law Domains. The eight fundamental Origin Laws of Gold, Wood, Water, Fire, Earth, Wind, Lightning, and Light held equal status, and thus their Law Domains were also equal.

Therefore, Undying combatants disdained using Law Domains against each other.

However!

If an Undying God sought to eliminate Sector Lords, Domain Lords, and the like, they could directly use their 'Law Domain' to bully them. This was a 'Law Domain' that could only be possessed by one who had truly comprehended a complete law.

“Woooo—”

A roar tore through the endless starry sky, echoing far and wide.

A colossal beast, its entire body covered in black scales, resembling a continuous mountain range—the peak Starry Sky Behemoth, the Golden Horned Beast—appeared before Luo Feng. When this Golden Horned Beast first manifested, its body length was over 200 kilometers, but it was still shrinking.

*Crackling sounds*~~~ Its entire body's density continuously compressed, its scales shrinking, its muscles and bones shrinking, its density increasing, and the five sharp horns on its head also diminishing.

In an instant.

It became a Starry Sky Behemoth with a body length of just over 100 kilometers!

The second layer of the secret technique, `This Venerable Heaven and Earth`, had achieved minor success. Its body length and height were reduced by five times, while its overall density surged by over a hundredfold… boosting the Golden Horned Beast's physical strength and combat power by five times!

If the second layer of `This Venerable Heaven and Earth` were to reach great success, its combat power could surge by nine times. And if the third layer reached great success, its combat power could surge by thirty-six times. However, this cultivation method was easier for the Golden Horned Beast to practice when it was smaller; as its strength grew, it became increasingly difficult. Many Golden Horned Beasts only managed to master the first layer in their lifetime. Very few achieved great success with the second layer. As for the third layer? That was the stuff of legends.

Luo Feng's Golden Horned Beast clone was already at Sector Lord Level 6. Further progress in `This Venerable Heaven and Earth` was incredibly difficult, and the conditions required for cultivation were extremely harsh. Even Luo Feng, at this moment, had no solution.

…

“A Golden Horned Beast?” The Undying God of Fire stared in shock at the massive Golden Horned Beast in the distance. “Such a powerful aura, it must be a peak Sector Lord Golden Horned Beast. And peak Sector Lord Golden Horned Beasts are said to be 1000 kilometers long. This Golden Horned Beast must have used some secret technique to shrink.”

“A human actually has a Golden Horned Beast protecting him. I wonder if this Golden Horned Beast is a soul slave he controls, or an assistant arranged by his teacher, Zhenyan King,” the Undying God of Fire speculated.

“But!”

“Even a peak Sector Lord Golden Horned Beast must die!” Flames burned in the Undying God of Fire's eyes.

*Boom!*

The Law Flame, like a giant fire dragon, charged towards the Golden Horned Beast.

Facing the surging, endless flames, the Golden Horned Beast let out a furious roar.

*Rumble~~~~*

The surrounding ten thousand kilometers of starry sky instantly transformed, becoming an endless mountain world. The powerful World Projection… directly suppressed the burning Law Flame. The Law Flame, in turn, incinerated the surrounding mountains into dust and ashes, yet the World Projection continuously reformed.

The Law Flame burned relentlessly!

The World Projection continuously reformed!

They were, surprisingly, evenly matched!

“How can there be such a powerful World Projection?” The Undying God of Fire's expression changed. “To be able to match a Law Domain! They say that devouring-type Starry Sky Behemoths have incredibly vast inner worlds, but… this World Projection is too strong!”

The strength of a World Projection depended on the power of the inner world.

Under normal circumstances.

Once a Law Domain was unleashed, the so-called World Projections of Sector Lords would shatter like bubbles, offering no resistance.

For a 'World Projection to rival a Law Domain' was almost impossible.

The inner world of a normal peak human Sector Lord was typically only about 10,000 kilometers in diameter, whereas Luo Feng's inner world exceeded 60 million kilometers in diameter! This was even larger than the inner worlds of many true Golden Horned Beasts at their peak! Typically, peak Sector Lord Golden Horned Beasts with inner worlds of 30 million kilometers in diameter…

Could barely resist a Law Domain with their World Projection.

They might be at a disadvantage, but they could resist.

And now!

Luo Feng's World Projection and the Law Domain were evenly matched.

60 million kilometers versus 10,000 kilometers—a diameter ratio of 6000 times. It was like comparing the territory of the Huaxia Nation to a small village; the 'projection' of the Huaxia Nation's territory and a small village's 'projection' would naturally have vastly different powers.

“Wooo!” The Golden Horned Beast roared.

Choosing the most difficult path naturally came with its blessings.

At the very least, its incredibly vast inner world granted it a heaven-defying World Projection, making it fearless of Undying Gods!

“It's useless! A Law Domain is merely an accessory; Undying Gods disdain using Law Domains when fighting each other,” the Undying God of Fire roared, instantly transforming into a stream of fire and charging towards the Golden Horned Beast.

“Roar!”

The Golden Horned Beast, however, let out an upward roar.

The golden secret patterns on its five horns lit up, followed by the golden secret patterns on its head, neck, back, four hooves, and scaled wings. Not only that, but its right claw also rapidly transformed, becoming thicker, its scales changing, and their color quickly shifting to golden.

Innate Secret Technique—Amplify!

Blood-Red Crystal power, activated!

The innate secret technique amplified all aspects of the Golden Horned Beast's body by two times, including physical strength, World Power, and so on!

Driven by Blood-Red Crystal power, all its strength condensed, allowing its right claw to unleash an 11-fold force.

`This Venerable Heaven and Earth` amplified by 5 times, innate secret technique amplified by 2 times.

Blood-Red Crystal power amplified by 11 times, and the unnamed secret technique enhanced body quality by 3 times.

Under the terrifying burst of the Golden Horned Beast's right claw… it was equivalent to 330 times the power of a normal Golden Horned Beast at Sector Lord Level 6 not activating its innate secret technique. A normal Golden Horned Beast at Sector Lord Level 6 was in no way inferior to a peak human Sector Lord.

A 330-fold amplification!

As for the Golden Horned Beast's World Power, it achieved a 64-fold amplification due to 'psychic power amplification of over 3200' (more than 32 times that of an ordinary person) and 'innate secret technique's overall 2-fold amplification'!

However, comparing the two.

The Golden Horned Beast's physical body was clearly stronger!

…

The World Projection could resist the Law Domain, thus granting it the qualification for a fair fight!

“Roar~~” The Golden Horned Beast roared even more ferociously, simultaneously charging towards the powerful Undying God. It directly swung its powerful golden right claw, while through the Beast God Head Roaring Diagram, it could clearly sense the Law of Gold, Law of Space, and other laws, and following the Beast God's artistic conception refined over 180 years of arduous cultivation in the Beast God Canyon… it unleashed its strongest claw strike!

Sky-Rending Claw!

*Rumble rumble rumble~~~* The cosmic space tore open with massive fissures, and layers of space shattered, forming spatial turbulence.

“Even if it's a Golden Horned Beast, it's just a Sector Lord. How dare it block me? Die!” A massive battle saber appeared in the Undying God of Fire's hand, burning with raging flames. With a wild slash… the cosmic space was similarly cleaved open, shattering many layers of space within the interlayers.

This move contained the complete Law of Fire and a partial Law of Space.

Its power was immense!

Driven by Undying power, this move was incredibly terrifying.

*Rumble rumble rumble~~~*

The golden right claw and the massive flaming battle saber directly collided. However, in front of the right claw, the flaming battle saber seemed as small as a toothpick.

…

With 330 times the pure physical strength of a normal peak Sector Lord, and although the World Power's utility was far less than that of the right claw, it was integrated into it, boosting its power by a fraction. Coupled with the 10-fold Law amplification from the 'Beast God Head Roaring Diagram', it unleashed a terrifying claw strike imbued with the Beast God's artistic conception…

The Golden Horned Beast's strongest ultimate move!

And while the Undying God of Fire was an ordinary Undying God, it was Undying nonetheless, a world of difference from a Sector Lord. Only a very few, exceptionally talented peak Sector Lord Golden Horned Beasts could rival an ordinary Undying God; most could only choose to flee.

“Boom!”

The massive Golden Horned Beast and the Undying God of Fire were simultaneously shaken and sent flying in opposite directions. The powerful collision further shattered cosmic space, and the terrifying impact force directly leaked into the spatial interlayers through the broken spatial fissures.

“My total physical strength is 330 times that of a normal peak Sector Lord, and with the Beast God Head Roaring Diagram's amplification, my Law application is boosted by 10 times… plus that refined true God's artistic conception, yet, yet I still can't defeat an ordinary Undying God.” Luo Feng was shocked by the gap between Sector Lords and Undying.

“I, an Undying God, actually failed to defeat a Sector Lord-level Golden Horned Beast?” The Undying God of Fire was also shocked.

Immediately—

“Roar~~” The Golden Horned Beast roared and charged again.

“Kill!” The Undying God of Fire also went mad.

The battle raged furiously.

The Golden Horned Beast's scales shattered, and golden blood flew everywhere.

As its right claw swung, the Undying God's black armor also shattered, armor fragments flying. The layer of fiery red fur on its body was torn, muscles ripped, and golden blood splattered freely.

“Boom!” The Golden Horned Beast was shaken and slammed into the endless insect corpses.

“Boom!” The Undying God of Fire was also shaken and slammed into the endless insect corpses in the starry sky.

The battle was inextricably fierce.

One was a unique Golden Horned Beast with an inner world 60 million kilometers in diameter, having cultivated the 'unnamed secret technique' and fused with 100 Blood-Red Crystals.

The other was an ordinary Undying God of Fire.

One had fully comprehended the Law of Fire and a very small portion of the Law of Space.

One had comprehended most of the Law of Gold and a portion of the Law of Space, possessed the Beast God's artistic conception, and had a 10-fold Law application amplification from the 'Beast God Head Roaring Diagram'.

“Boom!” “Boom!”

The Golden Horned Beast and the Undying God of Fire fought amidst the endless insect corpses, exchanging hundreds, even thousands, of blows per second, moving like lightning. The Golden Horned Beast's shattered scales, the Undying God of Fire's torn skin and muscles, and golden blood splattered everywhere.

“The battle has lasted 50 seconds,” the Undying God of Fire raged. “Ke Sier said I must kill Luo Feng within 80 seconds. But that human is protected within this Golden Horned Beast's inner world. Without killing the Golden Horned Beast, I can't kill Luo Feng.”

“There's no time left!”

The Undying God of Fire, as a soul-controlled slave, would fight with all its might to obey its master's command.

“Whoosh!”

The Undying God of Fire charged at the Golden Horned Beast again. The Golden Horned Beast also roared, raising its terrifying golden right claw. Just as the two were about to collide—

“Ah ah ah ah~~~~” The Undying God of Fire's face was distorted, its red mane trembling, roaring, its eyes filled with madness. “Golden Horned Beast, die! Explode! Explode! Explode! Explode! Explode! Explode!”

*Boom~~~~*

The surrounding cosmic space collapsed, and the Undying God of Fire instantly transformed into an incredibly terrifying, super-massive fireball, as if a star had gone supernova!

A God, self-destructing!

The final move!

To complete the mission, at all costs!
