254: Xia Fan's panic!

"Since that's the case, this King will make you understand when to refuse and when to obey!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Xia Fan directly unleashed an endless killing intent towards the Ant King, and the devouring black hole immediately showed signs of expanding.

Across from him, the Ant King gritted his teeth, his expression resolute. "This King has reigned supreme for many years and has never suffered a defeat. What's more... now that I have three new abilities, I refuse to believe I can't beat you!"

"Even if your Tiger King's reputation is legendary, what of it?"

"This King insists on fighting you!"

Buzz—

As his words fell, the Ant King immediately and unhesitatingly activated a gravity field, enveloping both Xia Fan and the Black Dragon King.

In just a short moment, the Black Dragon King's face changed drastically, and he hastily exclaimed, "Your Majesty, I can't take it!"

Under the effect of the gravity field, he felt as if his body had become dozens of times heavier, and he could only helplessly descend.

But Xia Fan remained standing in the air.

He seemed completely unaffected by the gravity field, maintaining his majestic demeanor.

In fact, Magic Cat herself possessed many abilities, and she had already merged with Xia Fan when they were about to reach Stone City. Therefore, the moment she sensed the gravity field, Magic Cat helped him purify the effects of this negative status.

However, his performance appeared extraordinary to the other fierce beasts. Some even felt a hint of pity for the Ant King. "The Eastern Tiger King isn't affected by the gravity field at all, so he must be even stronger than the Ant King!"

"You're right, it seems the sacred fruit will belong to the Eastern Tiger King."

"Hard to say, the battle has just begun after all..."

Amidst the discussions of the many powerful individuals, the tiger stripes on Xia Fan's forehead furrowed slightly.

He wasn't concerned about the gravity field the opponent unleashed. Such an ability could only be effective as a surprise at the beginning, and he could always find a way to counter it.

At this moment, Xia Fan pondered the words the opponent had mentioned several times, especially the key phrase, "three new abilities?"

This ability to gain new powers was his greatest trump card since his rebirth, and from his rebirth until now, he had never heard of anyone else possessing such an ability. He was quite curious, wanting to know how the Ant King managed to do it.

When he came back to his senses, Xia Fan's expression turned cold, and he directly questioned, "You said these abilities... are all newly acquired?"

"Then how did you acquire them?"

"Hehe!"

The Ant King suddenly let out a cold laugh, then assumed a battle stance. "You want to know?"

"Alright, defeat this King first before we talk!"

"You're asking for death!"

"Roar—"

In an instant, Xia Fan let out an enraged tiger roar, its innate deterrent power instantly startling everyone, causing all onlookers and fierce beasts to freeze in place.

Whoosh!

He took a single step and appeared before the Ant King. His enormous paw directly swatted at the Ant King, who calmly raised his giant pincers to block, thinking, "If it's just this, this King can certainly contend with the Tiger King."

"Ah..."

"Bang!"

But with a crashing sound, the Ant King suddenly let out a shrill scream.

His giant pincers, which he had always been so proud of and were incredibly hard, were actually broken directly by Xia Fan. The pain that shot through him in that instant made the Ant King unable to bear it, and his expression twisted with extreme agony.

"Hoo..."

Silence. At this moment, the entire scene fell into a deathly silence.

The many fierce beasts watching kept replaying the scene of Xia Fan breaking the Ant King's giant pincers in their minds, their hearts pounding rapidly, as if they themselves had endured that terrifying blow.

"Your... Your Majesty was defeated just like that?"

This was the feeling in the hearts of all the Ant Soldiers of Stone City. Most of them hadn't even clearly seen the course of the battle between the two sides, yet the victor was decided so suddenly.

As a result, these Ant Soldiers were incredibly shocked, and even their reverence for the Ant King was shaken. "Even His Majesty was defeated, so won't we be miserable? I knew we shouldn't have let those Two-legged Beasts see His Majesty!"

"It's over!"

"We're finished..."

On the city wall, the General of Freedom Island and his four attendants were completely dumbfounded at this moment.

Although they thought the Ant King might not be a match for the Tiger King, he was still a pseudo-seventh-tier powerhouse and should have been able to hold on for a while. But now he was instantly killed?

The most fatal part was that they were the instigators behind this!

They could even imagine how the Tiger King would deal with them once he learned of this matter.

"Your Majesty is mighty!"

In the arena, the quickest to react and the most delighted was the Black Dragon King. He now continuously cheered for Xia Fan, "Witnessing Your Majesty's divine power today truly gives me much to reflect on."

"Little Black is truly proud of Your Majesty!"

"Tiger King, don't kill me!"

Under intense pain, the Ant King finally understood the gap between himself and the Tiger King. At this moment, he hastily knelt, begging Xia Fan for mercy with a terrified expression, "As long as the Tiger King spares my life, I... I will give you everything."

"Gold and silver treasures, fierce beasts or human slaves, you can have as many as you want."

"Even that divine medicine, it's all yours. Please, please let me go!"

"Speak, how were you able to gain three new abilities?"

Xia Fan's expression was calm, more concerned with this matter, for defeating an ant like the Ant King was not worth mentioning to him!

"It was those Two-legged Beasts!"

The Ant King shouted, his gaze fixed on the stunned people from Freedom Island. "It was they who allowed me to rapidly increase my strength and gain new abilities in a short time. I... I became arrogant and wanted to fight you, Tiger King."

"It was all their instigation, Tiger King, you must see clearly!"

As he spoke, the Ant King's words were full of hatred, his gaze fixed on those Two-legged Beasts.

If not for these guys' instigation, he knew he might have directly handed over the divine medicine. Now, it was terrible. Not only did he fail to defeat the Tiger King, but he also lost face in front of so many fierce beasts, and even lost the divine medicine!

Hearing this, Xia Fan's gaze swept over the people from Freedom Island, subtly observing them, but saying nothing.

But just that one look made the people from Freedom Island's legs turn to jelly. They could only lean heavily on the city wall, barely managing to keep themselves from collapsing.

Seeing that they were not being cooperative and showed no intention of speaking, Xia Fan let out a low growl, "Speak!"

"Don't make this King ask a second time!"

Xia Fan was very concerned about this matter, after all, this was his secret to surpassing other humans and fierce beast powerhouses. If a similar person suddenly appeared, wouldn't his own safety be easily threatened?

His concern was so great that he momentarily forgot to collect the divine medicine from the giant pit.

At this moment, Xia Fan was very worried that there truly were others who had also mastered his greatest trump card! (End of Chapter)
