Rebirth of the Supreme Immortal Emperor

A mammoth giant beast, comparable to a small hill in stature, gazed down from above.

Surrounded by tribal warriors armed with spears and poleaxes, their bodies as robust as tigers and bears.

"Respected deity, today we shall obliterate the Azure Dragon Tribe and unify the Barbaric North!"

Yama, the Clan Leader of the Mammoth Tribe, seeing that they had an absolute advantage, was filled with pride.

The mammoth giant beast's crimson beastly pupils surveyed the battlefield below and coldly asked, "Any news of the Azure Dragon Tribe's Jiao Long, or those two humans?"

"None yet; perhaps they've fled upon hearing the esteemed name of our deity."

Yama took the opportunity to sweet-talk the totem mammoth.

Flattery will get you everywhere!

Such is true for the Human Clan, and so for the Barbarians.

Though the mammoth giant beast felt slightly uneasy, it didn't pay much attention.

After all, it was a genuine fifth-level demon beast, far superior to the likes of the Fierce Tiger, Divine Turtle, or Black Wolf.

In a real battle, it could single-handedly take on three opponents.

"That Jiao Long of the Azure Dragon Tribe might be a descendant of the Ancient Demon Dragon. If I devour it, my combat power will surely soar to new heights!"

The mammoth giant beast's pupils, which shone bright red like lanterns, spoke proudly.

Further speaking, its gaze unconsciously drifted toward the direction of the Heavenly Wolf Peak.

The previous master there, Howling Moon Sky Wolf, was its role model—a symbol representing the unification of the Barbaric North and its true dominion!

"Boom!"

Just then, a thunderous applause shook heaven and earth, exploding fiercely.

From this position, one could vaguely see the direction of Wild Wolf Mountain, with Heavenly Wolf Peak suddenly collapsing.

Heavenly Wolf Peak was a forbidden zone and a sacred place for all the tribes in the Barbaric North.

After all, during the rule of Howling Moon Sky Wolf, it was the zenith period for the entire Barbaric North.

Thus, Howling Moon Sky Wolf held a revered status in the hearts of these barbarians.

Just as the barbarians were astonished at the sudden collapse of the thousand-year-standing Heavenly Wolf Peak, a soul-stirring dragon's roar thundered across the skies again.

A Jiao Long, gleaming all over with golden light, soared into the sky.

"Crack!"

It extended a claw from its abdomen and fiercely brought down a bolt of lightning, shattering a protruding boulder into pieces.

Immediately thereafter, it extended its second claw, unleashing a black Gang wind that swept across, leaving destruction in its wake similar to a typhoon.

This was Jiao Long's second Divine Skill awakened after Thunder—Tornado!

At the same time, Li Chen's inner Blood Moon had almost fully been refined.

However, he was somewhat frustrated that most of the Spiritual Power of the Blood Moon had been devoured by the Meteorite Heart in his Sea of Consciousness. Only a small portion had been absorbed by his Dan Tian Meridians.

This allowed his cultivation level to reach only the peak of Foundation Establishment Late Stage. He was still a step away from Half Golden Core.

It seemed that with just one more opportunity, he could smoothly break through the bottleneck to begin Golden Core Formation!

Thinking of the massive amount of Spiritual Power needed for Golden Core Formation, Li Chen inexplicably felt a toothache.

"Roar, roar!"

Seeing that Li Chen had also awakened, Jiao Long circled around him, occasionally extending his claws and excitedly yelping.

Now with two claws grown, it still possessed the heart of a child, eager to show off its achievements.

Li Chen, amused by Jiao Long's antics, stepped forward, patted its head, and gestured for it to settle down and not be so noisy.

Subsequently, Li Chen started to use his Spiritual Sense to examine the Seven-star Dragon Abyss.

He found that the Dragon Soul was unresponsive, seemingly in a deep slumber.

This meant that it had just devoured the residual soul of Howling Moon Sky Wolf and was in a period of digestion.

Li Chen also keenly noticed that the Dragon Soul's Divine Sense was becoming more refined. It seemed that once it completely digested, its combat strength would certainly elevate yet another level.

Although there was no Dragon Soul to aid them, Li Chen and Jiao Long were perfectly capable of confronting the Mammoth Giant Beast together!

With this in mind, Li Chen stepped forward and patted Jiao Long's head, saying, "Little Dragon, let's go take down that big fellow!"

Jiao Long, having just awakened his second Divine Skill and been itching for a chance to show off, immediately nodded excitedly upon hearing Li Chen's words.

The sudden appearance of Li Chen and Jiao Long caught both the Mammoth Tribe and the Azure Dragon Tribe off guard.

The Azure Dragon Tribe erupted into cheers, devoutly worshipping Jiao Long and murmuring unintelligible sentences in their barbaric language.

The Mammoth Tribe, on the other hand, had more complex expressions on their faces.

Some were worried; after all, Li Chen and Jiao Long had come from the Northern Holy Mountain Sky Wolf Peak, instilling an inexplicable fear in them.

Others, however, were completely unconcerned. These people were devoted fans of their Mammoth Giant Beast, blindly believing in the strength of their totem. They were convinced that as long as their totem intervened, no matter who the opponent was, they would have to bow down on the spot.

A fierce light flashed within the blood-red eyes of the Mammoth Giant Beast.

Being a fifth-level Demon Beasts with Spiritual Wisdom, it understood that Li Chen and Jiao Long had likely found a great opportunity at the Heavenly Wolf Peak.

However, instead of fear, this realization brought an inexplicable excitement to the beast.

Although Jiao Long might be an Ancient Species, it was merely a youngling. Even if it had encountered great fortune, it was only a fourth-level Demon Beast and no match for the Mammoth Giant beast.

As for Li Chen, he was entirely disregarded.

After all, he was just a human, a mere Foundation Establishment Cultivator. In the eyes of a fifth-level Demon Beast like the Mammoth Giant Beast, he wasn't worth considering at all.

If it could devour Jiao Long, which had just experienced great fortune at the Heavenly Wolf Peak, it would be akin to indirectly acquiring that fortune. Hence, the Mammoth Giant Beast, which had an intense desire and pursuit of power, couldn't help but feel excited and thrilled.

"Attack, kill them!"

As a supreme tribal totem, the Mammoth Giant Beast didn't charge ahead like Jiao Long. Instead, it first ordered the tribal barbarians to charge forward, using their blood, and even lives, to test the strength of their foes.

"Prepare the bed crossbows!"

Yama respectfully responded and then directed his tribe's warriors to push out rows of Strong Crossbow War Carriages.

These bed crossbows were the size of a super-large bed, each as large as a small house.

The arrows on them were not made of metal but were giant wooden arrows, crafted by chopping down straight towering ancient trees and sharpening one end with an axe.

Such was a rather rudimentary long-range lethal weapon—simple, crude, and powerful.

Usually, they were used to hunt large low-level Demon Beasts. In wartime, they were brought out to face the enemy. It was a standard artillery weapon essential to major tribes.

The Azure Dragon Tribe also had plenty of these devices, but neither their range nor scale could compare to that of the Mammoth Tribe.

Hundreds of giant bed crossbows were pushed forward, forming three columns in a straight line, with a formidable display of flags fluttering all around.

"Fire!"

Yama swung the Command Flag in his hand and bellowed loudly.

Instantly, hundreds and thousands of giant arrows, like intercontinental missiles, bombarded towards Li Chen and Jiao Long.

"Roar!"

Jiao Long emitted a series of angry roars and abruptly thrust out his Thunder Claw from his belly. Thunder encircled the claw as it directly cleaved through, smashing apart the incoming arrows.

"Crack!"

"Crack!"

"Crack!"

Some of the giant arrows couldn't withstand the impact of Jiao Long's Thunder Claw and were instantly shattered, even catching fire, falling down and causing considerable chaos within the ranks of the Mammoth Tribe.

"Roar!"

Jiao Long roared again, and another claw strike unleashed a fierce Gang wind, sweeping towards the array of bed crossbows below.

"Swish!"

Seizing the moment, Li Chen charged forward, breaking the sound barrier with his physical body, and with a swing of his sword, he knocked down the high-flying battle flag of the Mammoth Tribe.

Seeing this, the Azure Dragon Tribe erupted in cheers.

"Divine Dragon is mighty, long live the Divine Dragon!"

The Mammoth Tribe plunged into panic again. Clan Leader Yama and some of the commanders all turned their gaze towards their great totem, the Mammoth Giant Beast.

The Mammoth Giant Beast felt as if it had been severely slapped in the face and let out a thunderous roar akin to muffled thunder before leaping towards Jiao Long, lunging fiercely...
