Godly King Taotie defeated Godly Emperor Nine Netherworlds and qualified for the temple. A bet was made between Godly King Taotie and Godly Emperor Purple Dragon regarding the outcome of the final fight between Godly King Horned Mahoraga and Godly King Golden Dragon. Godly King Taotie intervened in the fight to save Godly King Horned Mahoraga, leading to both fighters being disqualified.

The inner temple resided within a specially crafted space, a dimension materialized by Chi You himself. Access was strictly controlled, requiring a guide, which underscored the profound significance of the recent competition. Even highly revered Godly Kings could not simply visit Chi You at their leisure.

Having successfully passed the examination, these individuals were granted the coveted opportunity to meet Chi You, a once-in-a-lifetime privilege. Their ultimate aspiration in life was to engage in even a brief conversation with the Great Leader Chi You, an encounter that would bring them honor and gratitude for all their days.

This desire burned especially bright within Godly Emperor Purple Dragon! His primary motivation for entering the inner temple stemmed from his lifelong dream of personally encountering Chi You. He yearned to ascend the ranks, aiming to become a Supreme Godly King, the apex of power among beasts!

Currently, only three Supreme Godly Kings graced the Beast Godly Temple. Each possessed cultivation at the pinnacle of the Earthly Godly Ancestor layer, earning universal reverence. They held the crucial responsibility of overseeing all other Godly Kings, occupying positions of immense authority!

These three preeminent Supreme Godly Kings possessed the standing to converse with Chi You whenever they pleased, residing, much like Chi You, within the sacred confines of the Godly Temple.

The guardian barring their path was no common beast; he was, in fact, one of those three formidable Supreme Godly Kings! This status commanded immense respect from the assembled beasts. All other Godly Kings were bound to heed his commands, with the singular exception of the Ancient Godly Kings!

Upon entering the inner temple, the beasts collectively gasped at the sheer splendor. Twinkling stars blanketed the surroundings, casting an ethereal glow even in the darkness. The ambient Qi within this unique space was extraordinarily dense!

This potent Qi was exclusive to this dimension. The moment they arrived, Godly Emperor Purple Dragon, Godly Emperor Ghost, and the others felt an overwhelming urge to remain there indefinitely, eager to dedicate themselves to cultivation in such an auspicious environment.

However, such permanence was impossible. Merely being granted temporary access was already an immense honor. Chi You would certainly not permit them to linger for years on end.

Lin Feng stood impassively; the prevalent Qi held no value for him. Furthermore, as a cultivator of the Tian Dao, he no longer required external resources to augment his strength.

His path to power now lay in comprehending novel concepts. As his cultivation advanced, the pool of readily available knowledge dwindled, with truly significant insights becoming exceedingly scarce and often contingent upon sheer fortune.

Godly King Taotie, Godly Emperor Purple Dragon, Godly King Giant Head, and Godly Emperor Ghost stood transfixed, their gazes fixed on the horizon. Flashes of golden light emanated, accompanied by the presence of exceptionally holy beast Qi!

“If my assessment is correct, that structure must signify the entrance to the Godly Temple,” Lin Feng declared, his impatience palpable. The prospect of confronting Chi You and the false Tian Dao grew nearer, igniting a surge of anticipation within him. Victorious over them, the World of Battles would finally be purged of its adversaries!

“You five, do you wish to meet the Leader?” the guard inquired after a noticeable pause, a smirk playing on his lips as he observed them. A sense of unease settled upon the five Godly Kings; something about the guard’s demeanor felt amiss.

Lin Feng’s brow furrowed. A subtle undercurrent of deception was present, yet Lin Feng remained unfazed. His formidable strength rendered him impervious to any schemes.

“Naturally, we do. Grant us entry!” Godly Emperor Purple Dragon exclaimed with feigned enthusiasm, offering a humble clasp of his hands. The others remained conspicuously silent.

“Indeed, honored guardian, we implore you! Our desire is to pay our respects to the Leader!” Godly Emperor Ghost readily concurred at that precise moment, his excitement almost palpable. Such an expression from him would have undoubtedly astonished ordinary beasts.

Godly Emperor Ghost’s eagerness stemmed from his ambition to attain greater power by meeting the Leader, making him willing to humble himself. With increased strength, he believed no one would dare challenge him, not even the formidable Godly King Taotie!

Godly King Giant Head likewise engaged in sycophancy towards the guard. Only Lin Feng maintained his silence. The guard’s gaze fixed upon him with a flicker of annoyance before he coldly addressed, “Godly King Taotie, you have no desire to enter the inner temple?”

“Of course, I do. I simply surmise that the process is not without its complexities, is it? Kindly state the conditions,” Lin Feng responded evenly, his expression unreadable.

While the other beasts displayed deference to the guard, Lin Feng’s comportment suggested he was addressing a mere commoner…

Witnessing Lin Feng’s composed and unyielding demeanor, the guard experienced a sliver of startled admiration for his audacity, yet an undercurrent of discomfort persisted. As an Ancient Supreme Godly King, he commanded universal respect; Lin Feng’s casual attitude thus provoked his ire.

“Heh! Naturally, there are rules! The rule dictates thusly… four of you must vanquish one amongst you, and the remaining four shall gain entry into the inner temple!” the guard proclaimed, a chilling smile gracing his features. His gaze lingered meaningfully on Lin Feng, then shifted to encompass Godly Emperor Purple Dragon and the others, his unspoken proposition clear: eliminate Lin Feng, and your passage is secured!

The guards' intentions were clear, and their gazes all shifted to Lin Feng. A grim expression settled on Lin Feng's face. Godly King Giant Head clenched his fists tightly. Godly King Horned Mahoraga stepped forward, placing a hand on Godly King Giant Head, his expression stern.

"Get lost! Or we'll eliminate you too!" Godly King Giant Head bellowed. Godly King Horned Mahoraga's expression remained unchanged. He wouldn't abandon his brother-in-law, even while injured.

Lin Feng was taken aback. He hadn't anticipated such unwavering loyalty from beasts. His respect for the mahoraga deepened.

"Try us and see! Hmph!" Godly King Horned Mahoraga retorted. His pride flared at Godly King Giant Head's disrespectful tone. An explosive conflict commenced between them.

Godly Emperor Ghost and Godly Emperor Purple Dragon found themselves compelled to charge Lin Feng, their desperation to reach their leader evident.

A mocking smile touched the guard's lips. Godly King Taotie was finished, he mused. It was only a matter of time!

Lin Feng narrowed his eyes, fixing a ferocious glare upon them. To storm the inner palace, they were truly willing to do anything...

This shared desperation, he realized, was a common thread between beasts and humans. A sudden understanding dawned on Lin Feng, and his strength subtly increased.

"Purple Dragon Palm Strike!"

"Gloomy Spiritual Ghost Constriction!"

Godly Emperor Purple Dragon and Godly Emperor Ghost unleashed their ultimate techniques. The fabric of space itself seemed on the verge of collapse under the assault.

There must be some form of protection maintaining its integrity, Lin Feng surmised; otherwise, it couldn't possibly endure.

"Since you crave death, do not blame me!" Lin Feng's voice turned icy. He raised his left arm, releasing a cascade of dazzling energy, imbued with a power rivaling the peak of the Earthly Godly Ancestor layer!

The guard's expression turned ashen upon witnessing this display. He had not foreseen Godly King Taotie possessing such formidable strength! This cultivator was clearly at the apex of the Earthly Godly Ancestor realm!

Anger simmered within the guard. Godly Emperor Purple Dragon and Godly Emperor Ghost were renowned warriors, counted among the three great Godly Kings; how could Godly King Taotie have attained such might so suddenly?

Boom, boom!

The terrifying energies lashed out with blinding speed and explosive force. Lin Feng stood unfazed, his expression impassive. His punch seemed capable of shattering the very world.

The two Godly Kings' faces contorted with desperation. Godly King Giant Head stared in disbelief. Godly King Horned Mahoraga was equally stunned. Was this the prowess of his brother-in-law? How utterly terrifying!

With but a single punch! The two Godly Kings were sent reeling from the impact!

The guard’s face tightened. He had posed a question, and now the two Godly Kings had suffered such a devastating defeat. Frustration gnawed at him, yet he was powerless. He was merely a clone, incapable of overcoming Lin Feng!

He would have to endure this humiliation for the present.

"And then there's you!" Lin Feng declared, his gaze sweeping over the astonished Godly King Giant Head. He didn't hesitate, launching another punch. His energy surged forth in colossal waves, eclipsing the starlight.

Godly King Giant Head countered with an ultimate attack, but he too was swiftly overwhelmed and sent flying.

Three beasts lay defeated. The guard was rendered speechless. Lin Feng had triumphed three times! He yearned to cry out in protest, but Lin Feng's chilling gaze halted his words. Offending a future Supreme Godly King over mere pawns was hardly worth the risk!

"Haha! Excellent! Brother Taotie, it is no wonder you are counted among the three great Godly Kings!" the guard exclaimed. With his strength at the peak of the Earthly Godly Ancestor layer, Lin Feng had vanquished three formidable Godly Kings; he was undoubtedly destined to become an Ancient Supreme Godly King.
