243: Below the seventh level, we are all ants!

"Tiger King, more words are useless!"

Golden Dragon King didn't believe Xia Fan hadn't stolen anything, because in his opinion, it was the Tiger King who stole the sea-stabilizing divine needle.

Such an obvious answer no longer needed explanation, so he immediately demanded, "I ask you, have you seen my son Black Dragon?"

Currently, he believed Xia Fan was quibbling, but at this moment, he was more concerned about his child, the Black Dragon.

At this time, with the Tiger King appearing in the Dragon Palace, either Black Dragon was no longer needed, or he was already... That Black Dragon was the Golden Dragon King's favored heir, and the former might soon enter the late Sixth-rank realm.

He was destined to become the strongest in the Dragon Palace, second only to him, with boundless prospects!

Moreover, his own child, Black Dragon, also wielded the rare power of lightning!

One must know that the attack power of lightning was extremely domineering. The Golden Dragon King had personally witnessed Black Dragon fighting with other sea beasts in the sea, almost always emerging victorious!

It could be said that Crown Prince Black Dragon, relying on the power of lightning, had few rivals among those of the same rank!

Therefore, the Golden Dragon King had always poured a lot of effort into the Crown Prince, hoping that one day, Crown Prince Black Dragon would inherit the Dragon Palace, inherit his throne, and spread the name of the Dragon Palace even further.

While asking, the Golden Dragon King looked at Xia Fan with some apprehension, very afraid of hearing bad news.

But he also knew in his heart that something must have happened.

Suddenly, his heart pounded uncontrollably!

"That black mudfish?"

Xia Fan paused slightly, then thought for a moment before casually saying, "Oh, I remember now!"

"That fellow wanted to compete with me in lightning techniques. I, being kind, agreed to him."

"Who knew that black mudfish was extremely fragile, and his body was like paper? I merely unleashed a single lightning technique and he was struck into ash, leaving no bones behind!"

"Wh-what?!"

Upon hearing this, the Golden Dragon King was utterly stunned on the spot, very unwilling to believe what he had heard. But the Tiger King was the strongest existence in Yunxia Mountain! This time, Crown Prince Black Dragon attacked Yunxia Mountain and had not returned, and then the Tiger King came over. This was enough to explain everything.

"Give me back my son's life!"

In an instant, the Golden Dragon King's eyes turned blood-red, and his entire being erupted with monstrous killing intent, roaring continuously at Xia Fan.

The Dragon King did not doubt his words, because at this very moment, in his perception, Xia Fan's cultivation was estimated to be late Sixth-rank, no weaker than his own child.

"Three Grand Marshals!"

After recovering, the Golden Dragon King immediately pointed at Xia Fan and ordered his subordinates to attack, "Bring the shrimp soldiers and crab generals, attack for me!"

"I will devour this fellow alive!"

"Yes!"

Upon hearing this, the three Grand Marshals of the Dragon Palace immediately, without hesitation, charged straight at Xia Fan.

For a time, countless sea beasts swarmed towards Xia Fan.

The Golden Dragon King's goal was simple—to use the massive army of sea beasts to exhaust Xia Fan's power until he could no longer fight back.

This way, his chances of winning would be much higher!

On the opposite side, Xia Fan, seeing this situation, immediately snorted disdainfully, "Overestimating yourselves!"

The next moment, countless hairs around him drifted down with the wind. As the Scattering Beans into Soldiers ability was unleashed, thousands of Giant Tigers suddenly appeared before him!

Upon closer inspection, the strong cultivators present were astonished to find that the strength of each Giant Tiger was actually more formidable than that of the so-called three Grand Marshals of the Dragon Palace!

Facing the encirclement of the sea beast army, these Giant Tigers seemed to have entered a flock of sheep, sweeping through everything!

This was simply a one-sided slaughter!

The sea beasts from the Dragon Palace and Yunxia Mountain were all numb inside after seeing this scene, unable to imagine that such a situation would actually appear before them.

"Is this... is this the King's true strength?"

Ta Mu took a deep breath, watching everything with disbelief in his eyes.

He had been out adventuring for so long and had obtained many opportunities. He originally thought his speed was fast enough, but now he understood that in front of Xia Fan, his small opportunities were of little help!

"To unleash such avatars, one clearly needs strength far greater than Sixth-rank to achieve it!"

"Yes..."

Beside him, Nami nodded slightly, her mouth agape, "King... what exactly did the King encounter? How could his strength increase so quickly?"

"Ta Mu, I feel like we went out for nothing. How great it would have been to follow the King."

"I feel that way too!"

"Damn it!"

On the opposite side, the Golden Dragon King was dumbfounded, staring intently at the thousands of Giant Tigers, his heart shaken to the extreme, "This Tiger King is actually so terrifying?"

He had never imagined that a Tiger King who wanted to steal his things would be so deeply hidden.

Soon, the Golden Dragon King's heart trembled, and he suddenly thought of a terrifying possibility, "Could it be... could it be that the Tiger King has already entered the Seventh-rank?"

"How is this possible?"

Poof! Poof! Poof!

In just a moment, the sea beasts of the marine race that rushed to the front were completely cleaned up by the thousands of Giant Tigers. Even the three Grand Marshals of the Dragon Palace were mercilessly torn to shreds by them, and a large amount of flesh and blood scattered into the seawater, staining the nearby sea red.

"Roar!"

Immediately, more than a dozen Giant Tigers, with unified gazes, looked towards the Golden Dragon King, then immediately rushed forward, ready to deal with him as well!

"Bang bang!"

The Golden Dragon King flicked his tail and repelled these dozen or so Giant Tigers!

After all, he was also a late Sixth-rank strong cultivator. Now seeing that things were going badly, he wanted to turn and flee, without a moment's hesitation.

"Trying to run?"

Xia Fan's eyes narrowed slightly, and with a flicker of his figure, he directly caught up with the Golden Dragon King and slammed down a claw!

As the saying goes, all below Seventh-rank are ants!

Even a pseudo-Seventh-rank would not survive three seconds in Xia Fan's hands.

Let alone a mere late Sixth-rank?

Boom!

With one claw, the Golden Dragon King's head was instantly crushed.

But then, a phantom figure escaped from it, moving extremely fast, trying to flee the area!

Clearly, his soul was not located in his head.

"Great Devouring Realm!"

Xia Fan had no intention of chasing him. He merely allowed the Dragon King's dragon essence to flee. The latter was about to succeed, but suddenly, a huge black hole appeared out of thin air, blocking its path and directly devouring it!

"Tiger King, I... I am willing to submit!"

The Golden Dragon King's mind was in chaos, and he hastily begged for mercy, hoping to preserve his dragon essence and start over.

However, Xia Fan's actions never stopped. He continued to control the devouring black hole, consuming all of the dragon essence before retracting it.

With the Dragon King dead, the remaining sea beasts became like headless flies, scurrying around. However, most of them instinctively fled towards the Dragon Palace, attempting to use it for protection.

Seeing this, Xia Fan sneered disdainfully, then issued orders to the countless tiger soldiers, and together, they surged towards the Dragon Palace!
