This was a true Golden Behemoth, exuding the aura of a true king of ground warfare.
On land, it was invincible in battle. The endless power of the earth surged into its body, swiftly replenishing its internal consumption and keeping its strength at peak condition. No matter how long the fight lasted, its combat power would remain at its zenith. As long as it wasn't killed in a single blow, even if severely wounded, it would rapidly heal under the nourishment of the earth's power.
If it wasn't slain instantly, it would grind down its enemies through sheer endurance.
The dense fireballs only caused the Golden Behemoth's massive body to sway slightly before it pressed forward unharmed, taking powerful strides.
Yi Tianxing stood in the void, unwavering. The Ten Thousand Talisman Banner in his hand waved continuously, releasing a cascade of talismans. Ice Talismans transformed into terrifying ice energy, freezing large swathes of the battlefield, even encasing the Behemoth King in ice. But in a flash, the golden light on the Behemoth King surged, and the ice crystals around him shattered into shards.
Wind Blade Talismans transformed into giant blades dozens of meters long, slicing through the air like the strikes of a top-tier swordsman. These could kill even Nascent Soul cultivators instantly. But when they struck the Behemoth King, they only made shallow cuts on his skin—no blood flowed, and the wounds rapidly healed.
His entire body seemed as indestructible as adamantine—unmatched and supreme.
His physical might was no less than that of a true dragon. Golden blood radiated like a blazing furnace, causing the surrounding space to thicken. Every attack was crushed effortlessly before him—crushed, crushed, and crushed again.
"Talisman-based spells alone clearly can't hurt you. But what about composite spells—fusions of multiple talismans?"
Yi Tianxing wasn't surprised that the Behemoth King could shatter his individual talisman spells. If even those couldn't be resisted, the Behemoth King wouldn't be worthy of his title as land combat's sovereign.
He was also using this battle to test the true power of the Ten Thousand Talisman Banner.
With a thought, three talismans simultaneously emerged on the banner:— Wind Blade Talisman— Cloud Summoning Talisman— Storm Talisman
These three talismans merged under the mystical power of the banner, fusing as if forming a talisman array.
BOOM!
Suddenly, a massive storm erupted on the battlefield. The storm twisted the clouds in the sky, darkening the heavens. Wind howled, and clouds roiled—the tempest formed into a massive tornado.
Composite Talisman Spell – Wind Devours Clouds!
Wind is formless, clouds are ever-changing!
The fusion of wind and cloud gave the wind blades within the storm immense destructive power, boosting them tenfold. Now fused with the chaotic nature of clouds, the blades became even more erratic and unpredictable—piercing every inch of space, slashing with no discernible pattern.
In an instant, a sky-reaching tornado engulfed the Behemoth King. Countless wind blades within the tempest cut at him like lightning, from every conceivable direction.
The tornado swept across hundreds of miles in mere seconds.
"This Wind Devours Clouds spell is quite powerful—it poses a significant threat even to Nascent Soul cultivators. Against a Domain-realm opponent, the storm shreds through their domains. The merged wind-cloud energy suppresses and restricts anything caught inside," Yi Tianxing analyzed silently.
Even as the Behemoth King was caught in the storm, Yi Tianxing observed and estimated the spell's true potential.
And indeed, it was formidable. The storm's blades tore at the Behemoth King, and even his indestructible body was carved with savage wounds. Golden blood began to drip from them—but again, the wounds healed quickly.
If it had been anyone else, they would've been ground into dust inside that storm.
The battlefield fell into terrified silence. Warriors on all sides instinctively felt despair when facing the massive tornado.
"Our king can't possibly be trapped by a mere spell. He is the Behemoth King!"
None of the beastmen believed their monarch could be subdued so easily. That was unthinkable.
"Suppress him! If the Behemoth King dies, the entire Beast King Court will collapse. The Great Yi Dynasty will win this war!" shouted the human warriors.
CRACK!!
Suddenly, a deafening roar echoed from within the storm. Without warning, golden divine light erupted from the tornado. Two massive golden claws burst forth, ripping the storm open from the inside.
It was a terrifying sight. In the middle of the dark tornado, two golden claws tore the storm apart.
The Wind Devours Clouds spell collapsed instantly.
Bathed in wild winds, the Behemoth King appeared even more majestic.
Around his waist, a golden belt had appeared at some point. Embedded in it was a purple gemstone, radiating a dazzling purple glow.
Within his flesh and blood, a terrifying surge of power roared.
"Strange. His strength has increased tremendously."
Yi Tianxing frowned. By his calculations, even if the Behemoth King could break the spell, it should take some time—possibly leaving him looking worse for wear. But in the blink of an eye, the King had torn the spell apart with brute force. That was unexpected.
His power had suddenly soared—vastly and inexplicably.
But Yi Tianxing did not flinch.
He waved the banner again.
Three new talismans appeared:— Ice Talisman— Storm Talisman— Ice Blade Talisman
A talisman array formed instantly, giving rise to:
Composite Talisman Spell – Icestorm!
A new storm raged—this one filled with icy gales and blizzards. Frigid air swept through like a tidal wave, freezing everything. Razor-sharp ice blades cut through the storm like lightning, threatening to freeze and shred all life into dust.
"Die!"
The Behemoth King roared and swung his claws. They expanded massively, blotting out the sky. With one swipe, he shattered the Icestorm spell completely.
Ripples spread through the void from the sheer force of the blow.
"Lightning Storm!"
Yi Tianxing unleashed another composite spell:— Lightning Talisman— Storm Talisman— Heavenly Thunder Talisman
Composite Talisman Spell – Lightning Storm!
Bolts of lightning like celestial dragons ripped through the sky, crashing down on the Behemoth King in a blinding barrage.
But the next scene was even more shocking.
The Behemoth King reached out with his claws and grabbed the lightning—as if catching snakes. The lightning thrashed and flickered, trying to resist, but it was torn to shreds in his hands, disintegrating mid-air.
Then came more spells, more divine arts, released like a tide from the Ten Thousand Talisman Banner.
Yet no matter what was cast, the Behemoth King responded the same way—with a swipe of his claws, he shattered every divine art into fragments.
Smash! Smash! Smash!
Destroy! Destroy! Destroy!
The sight was harrowing.
"Breaking Ten Thousand Arts with One Force!!"
"How is this possible? How can the Behemoth King be this powerful? Every divine spell is being crushed by his claws!"
"To shatter all magic with pure force—this level of strength is legendary! But I thought it was just a myth. To truly achieve it, the power needed must be unimaginable!"
Countless cultivators gasped in shock. This wasn't just brute strength—it was the legendary technique:
One Force to Break Ten Thousand Arts (一力破万法)
In the face of absolute power, all divine arts crumbled.
"No… something's wrong. The Behemoth King shouldn't be this strong. He's tearing apart every spell—this is too overbearing."
Yi Tianxing frowned. As the Behemoth King advanced, an invisible pressure pressed down like a mountain, becoming utterly unstoppable.
"It's that gemstone."
Yi Tianxing narrowed his eyes.If the Behemoth King had always possessed this kind of overwhelming strength, he wouldn't have stood idly by when the Ice Queen ravaged the land.
Nor was it likely his physical power could increase so manyfold in such a short time.It was impossible.
The anomaly had to be that golden belt—and the purple gemstone embedded in it.
