"Jingang, be careful."
Qin Shilei's reminder had just come out after Jingang was sent flying.
Immediately after, Qin Shilei's hair stood on end, as if he had been targeted by a venomous snake.
With a thought, he was about to activate his teleportation to leave.
However, a tremendous force had already struck his abdomen.
Qin Shilei's body flew backward in mid-air, while the Golden Light Talisman in his arms transformed into a golden light shield, protecting him.
As he flew backward, he took a moment to glance at the phantom that had sent him flying.
Name: Clawed Beast Emperor
Description: The king of the Clawed Beasts, Platinum Three-star, skilled in melee combat; Weakness, when you encounter it, you'd better run.
Run?
Running was impossible.
The precious Golden Light Talisman had been activated, providing a three-minute invincible defense against the Clawed Beast Emperor. He had to give it his all and see if he could slay this beast.
The Clawed Beast Emperor seemed to know that Qin Shilei was protected by the golden light and was unharmed. It once again transformed into a phantom and gave chase.
Teleport!
While still flying backward, Qin Shilei teleported behind the Clawed Beast and slashed at it.
As if the Clawed Beast Emperor had eyes in the back of its head, it dodged the sword's edge with a swift movement and lunged at Qin Shilei with its sharp forelimbs.
So fast!
Even though Qin Shilei was still in the state of Dharma Manifestation Heaven and Earth, with greatly increased strength, he could barely see the opponent's movements.
Clang!
Qin Shilei moved his wrist, and the Greatsword in his hand drew a mystical arc, accurately intercepting the opponent's claws.
A powerful force transmitted from the Greatsword, numbing his palm.
No wonder it could send Jingang flying dozens of meters away.
This Clawed Beast Emperor was not only incredibly fast but also possessed immense strength.
No wonder the information from his Breaking Dawn Purple Eyes said that this beast excelled in melee combat.
In terms of speed and strength alone, Qin Shilei was still slightly inferior to the opponent.
However, with the bonus from the Sword Dao Supreme attribute, Qin Shilei's swordsmanship had reached a near-perfect realm.
With this swordsmanship, Qin Shilei could still barely block the opponent's attacks.
Clang clang clang!
Man and beast fought each other with speed, sparks flying.
Dharma Manifestation Heaven and Earth truly lived up to its Orange-tier attribute, allowing Qin Shilei, with his Golden Two-star cultivation, to fight evenly with the Platinum Three-star Clawed Beast Emperor.
Although at a disadvantage, it also allowed Qin Shilei to see the power of this attribute.
"Roar!"
Jingang, who was far away, climbed up from the ground and roared in anger. First, it activated its Berserk talent, transforming into a demon ape over twenty meters tall.
Then, it activated the Berserk attribute on its body.
Berserk (Purple): Increases strength by three times after going berserk, lasts for half an hour, followed by three days of weakness.
This Berserk attribute was the only Purple-tier attribute Qin Shilei had managed to acquire for Jingang in recent times.
With the dual Berserk buffs, Jingang's strength increased by at least fivefold.
Jingang, with its bloodshot eyes, charged forward like a high-speed train.
Boom boom boom!
The frenzied Jingang possessed terrifying destructive power, with cracks appearing on the hard ground from its blows.
Unfortunately, the Clawed Beast Emperor was too fast. It couldn't land a single blow on Jingang, and instead, its body received several deep gashes.
Because the opponent was too fast, Qin Shilei's Greatsword was blocked by the sharp and hard claws every time, preventing the Stiffening divine ability from taking effect.
"Hmph, how dare you kill my Kres's citizens? You are all dead today."
The Clawed Beast Emperor's voice suddenly echoed in Qin Shilei's ears.
Although the beast was speaking its own language, Qin Shilei could understand its meaning perfectly.
Perhaps the beast had a skill similar to Little Qiang's telepathic communication.
"You are the one who is going to die."
Qin Shilei teleported to a distance and then teleported behind the Clawed Beast Emperor.
Chain Lightning Slash!
His figure darted around the Clawed Beast, unleashing ten quick slashes.
He wasn't aiming for a critical hit, just to break through the skin and allow the divine ability to take effect.
Ding ding ding!
The Clawed Beast Emperor seemed to have predicted Qin Shilei's moves perfectly, easily blocking each sword strike.
"Is that all!"
The Clawed Beast Emperor said disdainfully.
Damn it!
Qin Shilei cursed inwardly.
The combat awareness of this Platinum-tier exotic beast, its sense of danger, was truly overwhelming.
Furthermore, this Clawed Beast Emperor was a melee specialist. With its superhuman physical capabilities, it was completely unfazed by Qin Shilei's surprise attacks using teleportation.
"I don't believe I can't hit you."
Qin Shilei first quickly recalled Jingang, then teleported thirty to forty meters away.
"Can you escape?"
The Clawed Beast Emperor flashed and rapidly approached Qin Shilei.
"I was waiting for you."
Annihilating Thunder!
Thousands of heavenly thunders rained down, instantly engulfing an area of a hundred meters.
Facing such dense area attacks, even if the Clawed Beast Emperor knew the Wave-Riding Divine Steps, it couldn't dodge them.
The Clawed Beast Emperor was immediately struck by a divine thunderbolt.
"Are you tickling me?"
The Clawed Beast Emperor's expression changed. Although it was surprised by the power of Annihilating Thunder, it stubbornly taunted.
At the same time, its carapace flashed with a dark golden light, and it continued to charge towards Qin Shilei, enduring the attack.
The Clawed Beast Emperor's plan was brilliant. If it could get close to Qin Shilei and kill the one casting the lightning, the heavenly thunder's power would be for naught.
With its Platinum Three-star strength, it could withstand several Annihilating Thunders without issue.
Just as it was about to slice Qin Shilei's neck, the Clawed Beast Emperor revealed a cruel smile.
However, the smile froze on its face as soon as it appeared.
Its incredibly sharp claws were blocked by a thin layer of golden light, unable to inflict any damage.
And its colossal door-like greatsword had reappeared in the opponent's hand at some point, and it was already slashing down fiercely, even faster than its own speed, so fast that it couldn't react.
One Punch Man!
Qin Shilei had been waiting for this moment. The lightning-fast sword edge flashed, and a spray of purple blood splattered out.
The Stiffening divine ability also successfully took effect on the opponent.
Jingang's mountain-like figure reappeared beside Qin Shilei.
"Beat him to death!"
Qin Shilei commanded, while simultaneously unleashing a combat skill, the Seven Stars Falling Long Sky Slash, towards the Clawed Beast's neck.
The dark golden light on the Clawed Beast's body intensified, fiercely blocking the Greatsword's slash.
After the sharp sword energy tore through the thick energy shield, it only managed to shatter the tough carapace on the Clawed Beast's neck before being unable to advance further.
"Again!"
Qin Shilei unleashed another combat skill, accurately striking the wound on the opponent's neck.
Blood splattered, and the Clawed Beast's face turned pale, its eyes filled with fear.
Boom boom boom!
Jingang's mace turned into a blur, relentlessly slamming into the Clawed Beast Emperor's head, making it see stars and cracking its fleshy carapace like a turtle shell.
Just as the two-second stiffening duration was about to expire, Phantom, who had been waiting nearby, accurately struck the opponent again at the opportune moment.
The Stiffening divine ability once again rendered the Clawed Beast Emperor completely immobile.
The man, the beast, and the clone attacked the Clawed Beast Emperor with all their might.
After being continuously beaten for four seconds, the Clawed Beast Emperor was already disfigured. Sixty percent of its bones were broken, and blood spurted from its wounds like fountains.
Qin Shilei was preparing to unleash another combat skill to completely sever the opponent's neck.
Suddenly, the Clawed Beast spat out a mouthful of blood.
This mouthful of blood instantly transformed into a blood mist, enveloping the Clawed Beast Emperor, which then shot away like lightning into the distance.
