Chapter 23: King-Level Demon Beasts Are Too Weak

Eastern Area of the Red Swamp Forest.

After finding the Crimson Blood Vine, Zhou Hao was about to leave when the surrounding water began to fluctuate violently.

Following that, a shocking roar was heard.

Three to four hundred meters long, a giant alligator covered in thorns rushed out of the water like a small island.

Its cold and indifferent eyes instantly locked onto Zhou Hao’s location.

In fact, it was already aware of Zhou Hao’s presence after the other Iron Tooth Alligators were attacked.

However, because he had only killed some demon generals, the Iron Tooth Dragon Alligator did not care much. But it did not expect that more than ten human grandmasters would arrive outside the forest.

Alarmed by their presence, it woke up immediately..

“You want to surround me? Hmph, I’ll eat your human junior first!” With this thought in mind, the Iron Tooth Dragon Alligator rushed towards Zhou Hao.

The Iron Tooth Dragon Alligator crossed a thousand meters and arrived in front of Zhou Hao.

Its bloody mouth opened wide, forming a gap that was taller than a three-story building.

Zhou Hao stood rooted to the ground.

Iron Tooth Dragon Alligator thought that Zhou Hao must have been scared silly.

“Lowly ant.” Disdain flashed in the Iron Tooth Dragon Alligator’s cold eyes. If it was any other time, it wouldn’t have bothered eating such a martial artist.

Just as its bloody mouth was about to drown Zhou Hao…

Zhou Hao moved!

He raised his fist, his blood essence surging.

A faint ancient dragon elephant figure appeared behind him.

It let out deafening roars.

Boom.

His fist smashed into the king-level demon beast’s bloody mouth.

An incomparably terrifying force surged out.

It swept out in all directions.

The surrounding airwaves formed a mushroom cloud that spread out crazily. Layers of huge ripples vortexes spread out from the water under his feet, sweeping in all directions at an extremely fast speed.

Fear instantly appeared in the Iron Tooth Dragon Alligator’s cold eyes.

It felt like it wasn’t devouring a martial artist, but an ancient dragon elephant that was even more terrifying than itself!

Bang.

However, it was already too late to stop.

The Iron Tooth Dragon Alligator felt a terrifying pressure that instantly spread throughout its entire body. Many of its organs and bones were directly turned to dust.

“What… what kind of existence have I provoked!” As this thought appeared in its mind, it slowly closed its cold eyes.

Boom!

The 300-meter-long Iron Tooth Alligator fell heavily.

Zhou Hao heaved a sigh of relief when he saw this. He was still rather nervous when facing a king-level demon beast.

Thus, he even used eighty percent of his strength.

In the end, the Iron Tooth Alligator died just as he expected.

“I didn’t expect even a king-level demon beast to be so weak!” Shaking his head, he sighed and put the Iron Tooth Dragon Alligator’s corpse into his spatial bag.

With the Black Tortoise Set, it was indeed very convenient to collect demon beast materials.

Ten thousand meters away.

Waves of powerful airwaves surged towards them.

The vortex ripples formed a three-meter-tall wave also followed closely behind.

The expressions of Commander Zhao and the group of grandmasters changed drastically.

“What a powerful aura!”

“I wonder how the battle is going!”

“It must have been intense.”

They looked at each other and took a deep breath before increasing their speed.

If it was an open area 10,000 meters away, the masters would arrive in the blink of an eye.

However, this was the Red Swamp Forest. The terrain was complicated and the water couldn’t be trusted. Therefore, Commander Zhao and the others took nearly 10 seconds to arrive at the source of the battle.

“Where is he?”

“Where’s the Iron Tooth Dragon Alligator?”

After arriving, they realized that both the Iron Tooth Dragon Alligator and the newly-advanced grandmaster were gone, leaving behind only traces of the battlefield.

“Everyone, look around,” Commander Zhao shouted.

The other grandmasters nodded one after another, either diving into the water or following the trail of destruction. All of them searched anxiously, but they still found nothing.

At this moment, He Biao activated the armor detector device. Under normal circumstances, grandmasters rarely activated the detector. Usually, they relied on their senses to find the demon beasts.

“Commander Zhao, there’s no heat signature at all.” Seeing Commander Zhao look over, He Biao shook his head.

“Commander Zhao, I found the remains of a set of standard armor.” A grandmaster picked up the remains of an armor and quickly rushed over.

The other grandmasters who had been unable to find anything also returned.

Upon seeing the remains of the armor, their expressions turned ugly.

Commander Zhao said in a deep voice, “This is only standard armor. Its defense is too low. The attack pressure emitted by the Iron Tooth Dragon Alligator alone is able to tear it apart. It doesn’t mean anything.”

“Could they have perished together?” A grandmaster guessed.

“Even so, it’s impossible for there to be no corpses!” Another grandmaster shook his head.

Commander Zhao swept his gaze over the battlefield traces and suddenly smiled. “If there’s no corpses, there’s only one possibility!”

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

The other grandmasters all looked over.
