1897 Nine-Headed Saint Lion Avatar (1/2)

”Saint level energy.” A look of surprise came over Qingfeng Li's face. He had clearly sensed a wave of saint level energy coming from the golden scroll. ”There's saint level energy within that golden scroll!”

Qingfeng Li could sense saint level energy very accurately. This was because he had Dark Night Emperor by his side. Dark Night Emperor was once an Ancient Saint and, although all that was left of him was his soul, Qingfeng Li could still sense saint level energy radiating from him.

The energy emitted by the golden scroll was of the same calibre as that of Dark Night Emperor.

Golden Lion Demon Monarch roared in laughter, its eyes filled with arrogance and smugness. ”Brat,” it said haughtily, ”you've got good sensed. That is correct! My golden scroll contains an Avatar of my ancient Saint level ancestor. You are going to die here today!”

Its incantation complete, the Golden Lion Demon Monarch slowly unfurled the golden scroll.

Rumble!

A sound that echoed through heaven and earth came from the golden scroll.

Then, a towering nine-headed lion charged out from within. This was Nine-Headed Saint Lion Avatar, it was an avatar of the Ancient Saint's true form.

Nine-Headed Saint Lion Avatar was truly immense, measuring a full hundred thousand feet tall, it towered above an entire mountain peak. Each of its nine heads was the size of a mountain several thousand meters tall.

In its shadow, all demonic beasts within a ten-thousand-kilometer radius prostrated themselves upon the ground, not daring to move. Some of the demonic beasts closer to the epicenter simply blew up, their bodies turning into a cloud of bloody mist.

Black Puppy and Sky-Devouring Snake both hurriedly backed away until they stood behind Qingfeng Li. Only then did they stop, their eyes filled with terror.

The two of them were once themselves renowned masters of the Ancient Universe Era that had no fear of Saints. However, Black Puppy and Sky-Devouring Snake were both currently limited to the spirit monarch realm after being reincarnated. As they were, their powers were a far cry from that of an actual Saint.

Within a ten-thousand-kilometer radius, time and space had been frozen in place. Even standing over the Five-Poison City, Mengyao Xu, Ya Yun, the Monarch of the Spider Dynasty and many others were rendered unable to move.

All of the self-cultivators standing atop the city walls stared at the ten-thousand-foot Nine-Headed Saint Lion in terror, their faces pale. It was as though they were witnessing the end of the world.

The Monarch of the Spider Dynasty looked on in shocked horror as he muttered to himself. ”A Saint's Avatar. How is that possible? the Crimson Fire Continent had never had a Saint. Why would there be a Saint's Avatar here?

Beside him, the Spider Princess and others were still frozen. they were, however, able to speak.

”Father,” the Spider Princess spoke, ”if my guess is correct, that Saint should be an ancestor of the Golden Lion Demon Monarch from the Ancient Universe Era. No one would ever have guessed that its ancestor would have left it with an Avatar sealed in a scroll. It's no wonder that, for five thousand years, the Sun Monarch was unable to kill the Golden Lion Demon Monarch.”

The Spider Dynasty Monarch nodded. there was worry in his eyes, alongside the fear. If Qingfeng Li were to be slain by the Saint, they would no doubt follow soon after.

Mengyao Xu and Ya Yun both wore looks of concern. they wanted to help Qingfeng Li, but their bodies had been locked in place. Unless they became Saints themselves, no one could resist the prestige of a Saint.

Take, for example, the Crimson Fire Monarch. Although he had not reached the level of Saint himself, he could borrow the vital energy of the entire planet, or the planet's Laws and Talisman scripts of Order, in order to withstand the prestige of a Saint. Other than that, ordinary spirit monarch realm masters would not be able to resist in the slightest.
