Chapter 265: Too Careless!

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

It was difficult to groom someone into becoming stronger than a king. However, it was very easy for the country to cultivate a king. If Lin Yao could have a contract with beasts stronger than a king when he was at the king level, he would be an invaluable asset to the country.

In particular, many people were reminded that Lin Yao not only possessed the talent of a summoner, but his cultivation talent was also a king seedling. There was no need to make much effort to groom him.

“This won’t do. We have to report this to the higher-ups.”

…

Lin Yao did not know what was going on inside. With the summoner badge, he could finally summon a beast in future matches without any restrictions.

This applied to the Hidden Dragons List. Although the Golden Warlion did not have powerful potential, he had lots of potential. He could summon the Golden Warlion in the warlord stage. When he advanced to a gold warlord, the Golden Warlion might not be able to advance, but he could have a contract with a titled beast of the same level.

This meant that Lin Yao’s combat power would not be weaker, so Yuan Hao’s master could no longer prohibit Lin Yao from summoning beasts.

“I can finally fight. Come on, kid!”

Playing with a black wrought iron rod, Yuan Hao showed no signs of fear as he faced Lin Yao and the Celestial Warlion.

Yuan Hao was fearless, and so was Lin Yao. He was naturally not afraid of him. His mind jolted, and a huge Golden Warlion rushed forward with a terrifying presence. It opened its big mouth, which was full of thunder and flames, as it tried to land a bite on Yuan Hao.

Roar!

“Golden bell!”

The lion kept roaring, its huge mouth looking like a city gate, and the teeth inside were made up of thunder and flames that seemed able to tear anything apart. However, Yuan Hao did not even dodge.

He placed the wrought iron rod aside, put his palms together, and chanted “golden bell” in a low voice. Soon, a golden bell phantom flew out of him and quickly became larger, becoming five meters high in no time.

The golden bell phantom that flew out was like a real bell. It seemed to be cast in gold, there were Sanskrit Buddhist scriptures on it, and dragons and tigers wandered on the surface of the golden bell.

This was the Buddhist technique Vajra Shield. One could tell from Yuan Hao’s behavior that he had already practiced this combat technique to the highest level. With the huge Vajra Shield covering his entire body, he was protected against fists, knives, spears, and all attacks.

However, this technique might be invincible when used on people of the same level, but the Golden Warlion was one level higher than Yuan Hao and could crush him in terms of power and energy reserves.

The five-meter golden bell was not considered small, but the energy warlion with a shoulder height of 7.8 meters and a body length of 10 meters still swallowed the entire huge bell in one bite. While it was gnawing on the bell, dozens of toothed spears that were formed from light and flashing with thunderbolts ripped the huge bell apart. Soon, the huge bell cracked, and the phantoms of dragons and tigers wailed in agony in the mouth of the Golden Warlion.

“Sure enough, it is still too difficult to resist the gold warlord head-on. Explosion!”

With a loud shout, the huge gold-cast bell around Yuan Hao suddenly burst into pieces. He took the initiative to blow up the giant bell, causing countless golden energies to splash around. This sudden explosion also blasted the head of the Golden Warlion to pieces.

Although the lion did not have a physical body to add strength to it after turning into an energy creature, it had also acquired indestructible characteristics.

The lion head that exploded appeared on the neck of the Golden Warlion almost a moment later. Naturally, Yuan Hao knew that it was difficult to kill the Golden Warlion. After blowing up the Vajra Shield, he put a palm on his waist. A huge amount of energy gathered on his palm, and a moment later, the Buddha’s Vajra Palm was about to be unleashed.

However, just as he was about to wave his palm, he suddenly sensed something and quickly turned his head, as if to avoid it. Unfortunately, it was too late.

There was suddenly a loud boom. The sound of an artillery shell hitting its target echoed in the field, and at the same time, a leisurely sound also drifted into Yuan Hao’s ears.

“Have you forgotten about my existence?”

It was Lin Yao who was talking. He flapped his Tempest Wings and hovered in the air. He was throwing a few tokens in his hands while bobbing up and down, as if to warn his opponent, but at the same time, he was threatening him.

On his seemingly relaxed face, the corners of Lin Yao’s mouth actually twitched, and he was speechless.

“What on earth is your scoundrel’s head made of? You were hit by my Super Electromagnetic Gun. Even though I did not use all my strength, it shouldn’t have merely caused a small bump!”

That was right. Lin Yao had secretly used the Super Electromagnetic Gun to fire at Yuan Hao just now, when Yuan Hao had been busy fighting the Golden Warlion. Yuan Hao’s attention had been on the warlion, so Lin Yao’s sneak attack had been successful. However, he had not expected that the guy would have a very hard head and the Super Electromagnetic Gun would not penetrate his defense.

Lin Yao was speechless, while Yuan Hao touched the bumps on his head, looking annoyed.

“Scoundrel. If you can, you should challenge me head-on!”

In response to Yuan Hao, who was angry, Lin Yao said, “I am challenging you one-to-one now. You are going up against all of us.”

As soon as he finished his sentence, Lin Yao, who was standing in the void, suddenly stopped, and a beam of orange light shot once again in Yuan Hao’s direction.

This was a combination of a refracted illusion and the Super Electromagnetic Gun with the tokens.

When Lin Yao made his move, the Golden Warlion, which had recovered once again, opened its huge mouth, biting Yuan Hao.

This time, he did not have the Vajra Shield. Although the explosion of the Dragon Tiger Vajra Shield just now had been powerful, he could not use it for the time being. That was why he had gone all out and tried to blow up the Golden Warlion’s head with one blow just now.

Yuan Hao was cornered. The Super Electromagnetic Gun was on the side, and the Golden Warlion was in front of him. Now that he no longer had the Vajra Shield to protect him, Yuan Hao was facing a serious crisis.

He sighed. ‘It’s a pity. I am thinking of colliding head-on with the gold beast.’

While whispering, he lifted his foot and stepped forward at will, as if he was about to stand firmly there and face the warlion in front of him.

However, when he stepped forward, the golden cicada living in Lin Yao’s Sea of Consciousness suddenly let out a harsh cry, and Lin Yao immediately became vigilant.

“This is… Cicada Perception—Sensing Autumn Before It Approaches. Is there any danger?’

Lin Yao was confused by the danger alert, but he flapped his Tempest Wings right away, flying toward the sky and watching everything around him vigilantly.

Soon, Lin Yao widened his eyes in shock when he saw what happened next. Yuan Hao, who took a step forward, disappeared without a trace before his eyes.

‘How can this be?’

He was very perplexed, but Yuan Hao had indeed disappeared. At the same time, a fatal blow hit him from behind.

Amid the shock, a thunder light flashed across Lin Yao’s forehead, and then everything in the world seemed to slow down in Lin Yao’s eyes.

Aside from the world and everything else, this also slowed down Lin Yao’s body. However, his consciousness was still awake, as he had lifted the brain domain limiter.

Although he could not turn around, he relied on the 3D image of the Electromagnetic Induction to see Yuan Hao appear behind him. The palm at his waist, which had been condensed by a huge amount of golden energy, was “slowly” preparing a strike.

‘This is Vajra Palm, and it is at a profound level. When he strikes, a huge golden palm shadow will appear, and there will be no way to dodge it!

‘Yuan Hao must be using the higher powers of Buddhism, such as the teleportation ability. On top of that, he’s also using divine vision, or he would not have been able to find me.’

After lifting the brain domain limit, Lin Yao was able to think thrice as fast. He was then able to analyze Yuan Hao’s ability in a very short time. However, it seemed that it was too late, as he could not dodge the Vajra Palm that had been released.

‘I am too careless. I must not underestimate anyone on the Hidden Dragons List. Fortunately, although I cannot dodge, I can still use an ultimate strike.’
