This blue whale was too big. If it really charged over, something bad would definitely happen to everyone over on this side.
Zhou Ji reacted on instinct and used his spiritual powers to deter the other party and also used his energy to form a barrier. At the same time, he said, “We aren’t from the Beast God Temple!”
He didn’t want to clash with a Beast King!
Despite not wanting to have a confrontation, the other party obviously didn’t agree. The huge whale that had previously only released a fraction of its killing intent let out a surge of it now that filled the sky after sensing Zhou Ji’s barrier. “You’re indeed people from the Beast God Temple!”
Zhou Ji: “……” What gave him the idea that he was someone from the Beast God Temple?
However, by this time, he no longer had any chance to explain himself.
If he didn’t stop the huge wave of pressure and the towering columns of water that the blue whale brought with him in his wake, they would become fatal for Xiong Ye and the others.
An endless amount of energy condensed into a shield that formed in front of the people of the Big Bear Tribe, stopping the blue whale. At the same time, the people of the Big Bear Tribe had already begun to run away, and Xiong Ye had picked him up and turned around to run.
However, how could it be so easy to escape?
The blue whale smashed up against the shield, instantly shattering it into pieces. A powerful force consisting of seemingly infinite power continued on, rushing towards Zhou Ji and the others.
In that instant, the people of the Big Bear Tribe were all full of despair––that wave of power hadn’t arrived yet, but the energy around it had already created such a heavy pressure such that they were unable to move. At this moment, everyone had a feeling that they were about to die.
Xiong Ye turned into his animal form and pressed Zhou Ji under his body. Zhu Zhan and One-Eyed Wolf turned pale, and the others who were weaker were already unable to say or do anything.
It appeared that the blue whale’s attack would crush everyone from the Big Bear Tribe to death. Zhou Ji sent out an attack of his own to counter the other party’s attack, causing powerful energy to smash up against the other party’s energy. The resulting impact was huge and sent the slippery blue whale sliding backwards.
“Who’s helping us?” Zhu Zhan stared at this scene in shock. He hadn’t been able to sense the previous attack due to Zhou Ji’s shielding, but he was able to feel everything clearly this time.
“The Beast God must be helping us.” Xiong Qi said. He and the people of the Big Bear Tribe all felt that it must be the Beast God protecting them.
“Beast King, it’s a Beast King…” One-Eyed Wolf’s single eye locked on that huge blue whale. This blue whale was a Beast King, and the person who was confronting the blue whale was also a Beast King.
“Come out, Beast God Temple bastard. Come out for me!” That blue whale’s voice rang out, rumbling and booming like thunder, spreading out along with his killing intent.
Zhou Ji was already finding it a little difficult to hold back. Now that he was swept up by this killing intent, it became even harder to control himself.
And then at this time, that blue whale just had to sweep up a huge wave, sending it towards them once again. Zhou Ji could only continue to block the attacks.
There were fish and shrimp contained in the waves. They were crushed to bits from the impact of their clashes.
Zhou Ji could smell the pungent scent of blood.
A huge mammoth suddenly appeared, rising up from the ground.
Zhou Ji could no longer hold back. Since that was the case, he no longer tried to control himself. Only, this fight couldn’t take place here…
The giant mammoth shook itself, sending the brown bear that was on its body flying, then charged straight at the big blue whale without a single backward glance.
He was now hoping that this whale could hold up under his attacks and drain all his energy!
Xiong Ye had originally been lying on top of Zhou Ji’s body in order to protect Zhou Ji. Yet as a result, he suddenly found himself flying through the sky and was then tossed back onto the ground.
Although it wasn’t particularly painful to fall onto the beach, it was still uncomfortable. However, at this time, Xiong Ye didn’t have any time to spare to think about this.
Xiong Ye was a little befuddled as he stared at that big elephant.
It had been too chaotic just now, so some people hadn’t seen the scene of Zhou Ji turning into that giant mammoth. They only felt surprise at this time, “That big elephant! Heavens!”
“They’ve started fighting.” Xiong Qi didn’t know what to say for a moment. Regardless of whether it was the whale or the big elephant, both of them filled him with fear, and now, the two of them were fighting against each other.
Speaking of which, how come Xiong Ye had fallen down from up above all of a sudden?
On the other hand, Zhu Zhan had watched as Xiong Ye fell down from that mammoth’s body. At this moment, he suddenly thought of something, “Where’s Zhou Ji?”
“Zhou Ji?” The people of the Big Bear Tribe immediately started looking for their messenger then discovered that Zhou Ji was nowhere to be found.
“Xiong Ye, where’s Zhou Ji?” Xiong Qi asked.
Xiong Ye stared at the mammoth who had chased the blue whale and beaten it so fiercely that the blue whale had chosen to retreat back into the sea. His expression complicated.
At this time, One-Eyed Wolf suddenly spoke up, “So that Zhou Ji was actually a Beast King! He’s actually a Beast King!”
At that moment, One-Eyed Wolf had been shocked silly.
When she first laid eyes on Zhou Ji and Xiong Ye, she had thought that they were merely two good-looking men from a small tribe in the wild forest.
She hated men after having been betrayed by one, but at the same time, due to her desire for revenge, she also liked to find men to serve her.
It gave her a sense of satisfaction to see those men in situations where they couldn’t go against her.
At the time, she had thought that Xiong Ye and Zhou Ji were merely people that she could keep around to play with.
However… Xiong Ye had soon showed his strength.
Once that happened, she no longer placed Xiong Ye and Zhou Ji in the category of ‘keep around to play with’, and instead just started to find faults with them wherever she could.
During this trip, she had really been very unfriendly to Zhou Ji. Yet as a result… Zhou Ji actually turned out to be a Beast King?
One-Eyed Wolf felt that her brain had gone blank with shock.
After her shout, the people of the Big Bear Tribe were all stunned.
That huge elephant was actually Zhou Ji? How could that be?!
Didn’t Zhou Ji not have an animal form?
His health was poor, and he couldn’t go out to hunt. He didn’t even dare to kill fish… How could he be that… big elephant?! The same one who had completely massacred the Giant Tiger Tribe?!
Nobody wanted to believe it.
But at this time, someone else spoke up, “I also watched as Zhou Ji turned into an elephant…”
“I previously thought that I had seen wrong…”
“His animal form is so big!”
……
Xiong Ye was their tribal chief, and Zhou Ji was the Beast God’s messenger. The situation had been very chaotic just now, but there were still people who had paid attention to Xiong Ye and Zhou Ji. After that, those people had seen a scene that made them question their reality.
Zhou Ji had fine skin and delicate flesh, and would usually turn away whenever they killed a dinosaur or something. He needed to be carried by Xiong Ye whenever they traveled far, and couldn’t move anything remotely heavy…
But now, he had transformed into such a huge elephant!
More importantly, this huge elephant… They had all seen it before!
He had once wrecked havoc near the tribe, destroying a mountain, and he had also crushed everyone from the Giant Tiger Tribe into meat patties!
The people of the tribe had all privately discussed this huge elephant amongst themselves. They all felt that although he was powerful, his means were cruel, and he should never be offended.
Yet in the end… The big elephant was Zhou Ji!
That was the Zhou Ji who spent all day long lying in a recliner and didn’t seem to care when others criticized him!
Although they had all been very friendly and respectful towards Zhou Ji recently because he was the Beast God’s messenger, he had been a frequent topic of discussion in the past when he was still a fool, and they had all felt that Zhou Ji wasn’t worthy of being paired up with Xiong Ye.
“That big elephant was Zhou Ji… The first time when he made a mess near the tribe, he wasn’t the Beast God’s messenger yet, and I didn’t respect him…” There was no expression on Xiong Qi’s face.
Someone else said, “At the time, I thought that Zhou Ji felt too deeply for Xiong Ye, and he even tired himself out for the sake of finding Xiong Ye. It was very moving… but in fact, he can’t have been tired out, right?”
Back then, they had seen Xiong Ye’s state after a close call with death, and Zhou Ji had been passed out by his side. They had all been moved by Zhou Ji’s persistence, yet… Zhou Ji had originally been the one who killed so many dinosaurs.
They had even thought that Zhou Ji was really weak…
The people of the Big Bear Tribe felt like they’d been struck by lightning. Xiong Ye’s mood was even more complicated.
He had felt more strongly than everyone else that… Zhou Ji was very weak.
When bugs entered their home, Xiong Ye would stomp them to death as soon as he saw them, but Zhou Ji was different… He would carefully catch the bugs and then release outside.
In his view, Zhou Ji had always been kind and weak, but now, the kind and weak Zhou Ji had suddenly turned into the person he admired and revered.
Xiong Ye felt like he had been deceived, but he wasn’t angry.
It suddenly occurred to him that both the times Zhou Ji had started a massacre had been because of him.
The first time, he had been attacked by the anthropleura. After that, Zhou Ji had appeared out of nowhere, killed the anthropleura that attacked him, and then… all the anthropleura on that mountain had been killed.
The second time had been when they had driven away the Giant Tiger Tribe and the people of the Giant Tiger Tribe had retaliated by stabbing him with a poisoned dagger… After that, everyone from the Giant Tiger Tribe had been killed.
So, what Zhou Ji had done was to avenge him, right?
When Xiong Ye thought of these things, he inexplicably felt rather happy.
Right after that, he thought of how Zhou Ji had taken him out of the tribe and taught him how to cultivate.
Although his original level of strength had been pretty good, he wasn’t very strong. After he got together with Zhou Ji, he had grown stronger and stronger… Had he only been able to become a medium level Beast Warrior due to Zhou Ji’s help?
Now that he was thinking this, Xiong Ye also thought of all the times when he was injured, only to recover overnight after sleeping with Zhou Ji… It was all because of Zhou Ji!
Many thoughts crossed Xiong Ye’s mind, but what occupied the most space in his thoughts was still mainly concern, “Will Zhou Ji be alright?”
The people of the Big Bear Tribe also started to worry after they heard this––indeed, would something happen to Zhou Ji?
“That person just now was the Sea God of the Beach Tribe.” Someone from the Green Hill Tribe spoke up. “Zhou Ji… can he win?”
This person from the Green Hill Tribe was someone that Xiong Ye had rescued from the Giant Tiger Tribe. Later on, after that huge elephant had destroyed the Giant Tiger Tribe, he had also gone over to clean up the scene.
Some people from the Big Bear Tribe might feel that the elephant had been rather cruel, but he didn’t think so. He only felt that the big elephant was truly strong and powerful, to the point where he was full of worship towards it.
Now, he was sincerely worried about Zhou Ji.
“Zhou Ji is the Beast God’s messenger. He’ll definitely be fine.” Xiong Ye said.
The people of the Big Bear Tribe all nodded and looked into the distance together.
Both moons were out in the sky that night, casting down their silver light onto the sea and allowing them to see everything without any obstructions.
They could clearly see that the two giant beasts had already moved their fight to the sea!
The fight was taking place quite far away from them, but they could still feel wave after wave of energy fluctuations that made the weaker people from their team unstable on their feet. Many of the low houses that the people of the Beach Tribe had built by the sea had been washed away by the waves, and the people of the Beach Tribe had fled over to their side.
The people of the Big Bear Tribe had previously been very friendly towards the Beach Tribe, but now that the Sea God of the Beach Tribe had suddenly launched attacks against them…
Xiong Ye ordered, “Capture all the people from the Beach Tribe!”
Xiong Ye’s people all went forth and easily captured the people of the Beach Tribe.
The people of the Beach Tribe really didn’t have much fighting power when they were on land.
In the past, they would jump into the sea and pray for the Sea God’s protection whenever they encountered danger, but now, their Sea God was fighting in the sea and unable to gain the upper hand. If they jumped into the sea, they would definitely be affected and might even lose their lives, so they could only try to escape via the land.
Now that they were caught, the people of the Beach Tribe were enraged, “Hurry up and let us go!”
“If you dare to harm us, you will anger the Sea God!”
“The Sea God won’t let you off!”
……
“You guys have the Sea God, but we have the Beast God!” Xiong Qi said. “Is your Sea God sick in the head?! He attacked us for no reason!”
“Why did he come over and attack us?” Xiong Ye also wanted to know.
Hai Pang had been tied up, and he was both angry and confused, “I don’t know either… We gave the Sea God the pottery pot as an offering, and the Sea God grew furious… You must have angered the Sea God somehow! The Sea God is invincible! He’ll definitely punish you all! He’ll definitely defeat you evil people!”
Xiong Ye: “Stuff something in his mouth and shut him up!”
The Sea God definitely wasn’t invincible; Zhou Ji had to be more powerful than the Sea God!
Although Xiong Ye felt this way, he was still a little worried.
Zhou Ji’s battle against the Sea God had moved into the sea, and they were getting further and further away from land… Would Zhou Ji be in trouble?
