Urban God of War: The Live-in Son-in-law-Chapter 545 - 540: Golden Pattern Divine Power Bear and Titan Giant Ape
Hong Family of the Ancient Clan?
Ye Feng's gaze turned cold in an instant, the words the Hong Family had said to him, as well as the harm they had inflicted upon Hong Qingyan, were absolutely intolerable to him. He hadn't expected that a genius from the Hong Family would be on the so-called genius rankings of the Outer Battlefield.
"Would Brother Chi please tell me about this genius from the Hong Family?"
Ye Feng clasped his hands together in a fist-and-palm salute.
Chi Jark burst into laughter on the spot, "As expected, I knew you, Brother Ye, would definitely be interested in the Hong Family."
"I also have some understanding of your issues with the Hong Family. The Hong Family indeed acts arrogantly and domineeringly; they can be said to be the most ostentatious among our Four Great Ancient Clans."
Ye Feng was somewhat surprised; he hadn't expected that Chi Jark, in a place like the Outer Battlefield, would know so much about the outside world, considering that conveying messages from the Outer Battlefield to Earth couldn't be as convenient as using telephones.
This Chi Jark was certainly no simple character!
"The genius from the Hong Family is called Hong Tianyu. He entered the Outer Battlefield around the same time as me. He will soon be thirty years old, and the latest intelligence has informed us that Hong Tianyu's realm has already reached the true Golden Core Realm!"
When speaking of Hong Tianyu, Chi Jark's face looked very solemn, and even in his eyes, there was a deep sense of wariness.
Ye Feng also showed a strange look in his eyes. To have reached the rank of Grandmaster of the Golden Core Realm before the age of thirty was indeed the mark of Heaven's Proud Child.
It seemed that this Hong Tianyu was indeed not simple, and not only had his realm reached the Golden Core Realm, but also he had managed to claim the second spot on the genius rankings three years ago. He was indeed a terrifying presence.
"By the way, Brother Chi, you said that this Hong Tianyu will soon be thirty—will he still be participating in the martial competition?"
Ye Feng asked.
"Of course he will. It's been said he's almost thirty, which means he isn't quite there yet, right? Ironically, this fellow just happens to fall on a particular date and can still participate in this martial competition."
Chi Jark spoke with a hint of helplessness.
"Oh yes, apart from Hong Tianyu, you should also keep an eye on another person, the one at the top of the genius rankings!"
Ye Feng's expression changed slightly, curious about the number one on the genius rankings—the one who could suppress all the geniuses under thirty. He wondered which power this individual belonged to.
At this moment, the wariness in Chi Jark's eyes became even deeper, and he even showed a hint of fear as he said in a heavy tone, "It's an Onmyoji from the Yin-Yang Temple. I heard that he reached the realm of Grandmaster of the Golden Core Realm a year ago, but the Yin-Yang Temple doesn't call it Grandmaster of the Golden Core Realm; they refer to it as the Yin-Yang Grand Mage, though it essentially means the same thing."
"That guy has three powerful Shikigami; back then, three years ago, each was comparable to a Half-Step Golden Core, who the hell can fight against that? Going up against him is like fighting three at once, it's downright perverted, and there's no way to compete."
Chi Jark couldn't help but curse.
Ye Feng was also somewhat shocked. Each Shikigami had the strength of a Half-Step Golden Core three years ago—that would be more terrifying than a Grandmaster of the Golden Core Realm.
Typically, the Shikigami summoned by Onmyoji are slightly lower in realm than themselves, which allows them to maintain control; otherwise, they couldn't manage, as each summoning consumes a lot of mental strength and power. This Onmyoji from the Yin-Yang Temple was truly formidable.
"The main point is that this guy is a year younger than me, which means that at the age of twenty-seven, he was already a Grandmaster of the Golden Core Realm. This guy is a monster," lamented Chi Jark.
Golden Core Realm at twenty-seven?
Even Ye Feng had to take a sharp intake of breath. He was only twenty-six years old himself, and had only reached the Half-Step Golden Core Realm with the help of the Divine Path Heavenly Edict Scroll and the Three Thousand Acupoints Cultivation Method. Although he possessed the strength of a Grandmaster of the Golden Core Realm, he had to admit that a twenty-seven-year-old Grandmaster of the Golden Core Realm was indeed a genius.
Ye Feng made a mental note of this information and the two continued on their way toward the Xuanyuan Hall.
They encountered some Alien Beasts along the way, but these were all below the strength of the Golden Core Realm, posing little problem for someone as powerful as Chi Jark or Ye Feng. They dispatched these Alien Beasts casually.
After roughly half a day's flight, Ye Feng and Chi Jark finally left the Death Desert. Ahead, the landscape gradually transformed into plains filled with boulders, along with continuous stone mountains.
Ye Feng looked back at the endless Death Desert they had crossed, where they had encountered quite a few Alien Beasts. He now had many Beast Cores, but many were of little use to him. Even if he consumed them, they would offer only minor benefits, so he continued to keep them in his Space Ring. He planned to save these for Hong Qingyan and Yu Feiyu when they came in later.
"We've reached the Rocky Plains. In another half-day, we should be able to get to Xuanyuan Hall," said Chi Jark with a laugh. He looked back at the Death Desert behind them and muttered, "That Death Desert is like a furnace, absolutely sweltering. But now that we're at the Rocky Plains, Brother Ye, we need to be cautious—the Alien Beasts here are not few in number."
Chi Jark became more cautious and warned Ye Feng accordingly.
Ye Feng just smiled and said nothing as they continued on their way.
Suddenly, a roar came from ahead.
Roar!!!
Roar!!!
Chi Jark, who was leading the way, suddenly stopped in his tracks, his expression subtly changing, "Careful, Brother Ye, it seems we've run into a Golden Core Realm Alien Beast!"
Chi Jianren felt the fighting spirit from ahead, and his face already bore a look of solemnity.
Ye Feng also looked over, and both of them had slowed down. Flying over several mountains, they saw giant figures locked in combat ahead, the aftershock of the battle splitting the nearby mountains.
Chi Jianren, unable to recognize the two giant figures, cried out in shock, "It's the Golden Pattern Divine Power Bear and the Titan Giant Ape!"
Less than a kilometer away from Ye Feng and Chi Jianren,
a giant bear stood upright, its body covered in brown fur, but several golden stripes on the bear's face resembled a gold-patterned mask.
There was also a colossal gorilla, larger than the black bear, incredibly muscular, with each muscle appearing as large as a small hill.
Ye Feng couldn't help but click his tongue; he felt he might not even be as large as one palm of this Titan Giant Ape.
At this moment, the Golden Pattern Divine Power Bear smashed a fist onto the Titan Giant Ape, Bang!
The blast of air shook the surroundings, causing the mountains to explode again and sending countless broken rocks flying.
"Such formidable power!"
Ye Feng couldn't help but exclaim in amazement. That punch, he thought, would probably kill anyone below the Golden Core Realm with a single blow.
But to the Titan Giant Ape, it seemed, this punch from the Golden Pattern Divine Power Bear wasn't much of a threat. The massive body of the ape simply took a step back to stabilize its form before roaring out as if fueled by rage.
Roar!!
Updat𝓮d from freewēbnoveℓ.com.
The sound echoed across the sky horizon, as the Titan Giant Ape lifted its two fists and fiercely hammered them against its chest.
Thump thump thump!
Waves of air continuously shook the area, and even Ye Feng and Chi Jianren had to circulate their qi to fend off the shockwaves, afraid they might be injured by the impact.
Soon, the Titan Giant Ape dropped its arms and roared at the Golden Pattern Divine Power Bear, then started moving, its huge body charging directly at the bear, and threw a punishing punch.
The Golden Pattern Divine Power Bear roared back defiantly, and the two colossal creatures once again grappled with one another.
The powerful shockwaves spread out from the epicenter of their clash, and the hardest hit were the mountains near the battling beasts, continuously shattered by the shockwaves or directly smashed by the bear or ape.
The two giant beasts fought in close combat, while Ye Feng and Chi Jianren stayed hidden in the shadows.
"Both are super beasts of the Golden Core Realm; why would they suddenly start fighting?"
Chi Jianren was somewhat puzzled. Normally, such behemoths of the Golden Core Realm would operate within their own territories, and rarely fight each other.
At that moment, a gleam flashed across Chi Jianren's eyes, his expression lighting up: "Could it be, these two behemoths have found some Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures?"
Hearing this, Ye Feng quickly looked in the direction of the battle and whispered, "That might be the case; otherwise, two Golden Core Realm Alien Beasts wouldn't cause such upheaval over nothing."
After confirming their thoughts, the two observed closely.
A few breaths later, Ye Feng's gaze swiftly locked onto a location.
"Look there!"
Ye Feng rapidly pointed towards the center of the battle between the Golden Pattern Divine Power Bear and the Titan Giant Ape. Roughly several hundred meters away from the two beasts, there was a cave from which streaks of rosy light were streaming out.
Chi Jianren also looked immediately and exclaimed with excitement, "The flowing light of dawn; definitely a treasure. And it seems like both behemoths are avoiding that area during their fight, probably because they're worried their battle could collapse the entrance."
Ye Feng narrowed his eyes. The battle between the two giant beasts was still raging on, with landsliding, rocks flying everywhere, and only that cave entrance remained undamaged. It wasn't just the beasts deliberately avoiding it, but certainly, something valuable must be inside the cave.
Some Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures could release a simple protective barrier around themselves, and these were treasures that had become sentient.
"However, if we want to get the treasure, we'll need to ask if these two big fellows will allow us."
Ye Feng murmured quietly.
The Golden Pattern Divine Power Bear and the Titan Giant Ape, both Golden Core Realm Alien Beasts, were immensely strong and massive, very difficult to deal with. Either of these behemoths could outmatch any newly advanced Grandmaster of the Golden Core Realm including Elder Cangming and Elder Hua Yue encountered by Ye Feng before!
While Ye Feng was confident he could fight with either behemoth, killing them was another matter, not an easy feat, and then there was Chi Jianren beside him; he couldn't reveal all his strength just yet.
Despite getting a relatively good feeling from Chi Jianren, in a place like the Outer Battlefield, anyone could stab you in the back.
Ye Feng remained cautious and dared not let his guard down.
Chi Jianren's eyes narrowed, and he suddenly spoke up, "Brother Ye, I can handle one of them, but I'm not sure if you are confident that you can deal with the other."
