"This is…?"

The Mystic Stone City Lord's eyes suddenly widened, and he was incomparably shocked. At this moment, not only those Chaotic spirit beasts, but also Perfected Lords like themselves were enveloped by Lin Feng's universe.

However, even these experienced and knowledgeable Perfected Lords were a little "stunned" at this moment. They had no idea what ability Lin Feng was using.

This ability had already far exceeded their understanding. It did not seem to be a divine ability. If one was not a Perfected Deity, they would not be able to use a divine ability at all. Instead, it looked a little like some kind of Chaotic spirit treasure.

However, what kind of Chaotic spirit treasure could have such a terrifying might?

The 12 Chaotic spirit beasts roared in unison. A trace of fear appeared in their eyes. The suppression of this world was simply too great. As the world phantom descended, Lin Feng stood in the middle, as if he was surrounded by the world, as if he was an ancient deity who controlled everything. He walked over step by step, but he did not even look at these Chaotic spirit beasts. Instead, he looked behind them.

Here, the eyes of an inconspicuous Chaotic spirit beast with a human head and a serpentine body, and whose entire body was scarlet, suddenly opened.

As the other party's eyes opened, Lin Feng felt as if his cosmic power had been instantly penetrated, like boiling water. The universe was also shaking violently.

At this moment, time seemed to have stopped. All the other Perfected Lords and Chaotic spirit beasts were no longer in Lin Feng's sight.

"Torch Dragon!"

Lin Feng enunciated each word slowly.

It was only at this moment that Lin Feng finally believed that the other party was the Torch Dragon, or rather, a mysterious Chaotic spirit beast with the Torch Dragon bloodline, a terrifying spirit beast that could make other Chaotic spirit beasts submit willingly.

The moment the other party opened his eyes, it was as if time had really stopped. In the range enveloped by Lin Feng's cosmic power, in the vast universe, the Torch Dragon naturally could not stop the time in Lin Feng's internal universe.

No matter how strong the opponent was, even if the true divine beast, the Torch Dragon itself came personally, it was impossible for it to reverse the time of Lin Feng's internal universe. The reason was very simple. This was the universe established by Lin Feng. Lin Feng was the god of creation, and he was the ruler of the internal universe.

However, the Torch Dragon could stop time in the Chaos. Once the Chaotic time was stopped, it would exert pressure on Lin Feng's internal universe from the outside.

Hence, the moment the Torch Dragon opened its eyes, Lin Feng felt that the cosmic power in his body was also suppressed by the vast Chaotic Rules. This power was almost impossible to resist. Lin Feng had no intention of resisting it head-on. After all, this was only a universe phantom, and this was just some cosmic power, not Lin Feng's entire universe.

"Retrieve!"

With a thought from Lin Feng, the cosmic power instantly retracted, and the cosmic power disappeared. At the same time, the 12 Chaotic spirit beasts also disappeared, retrieved into the internal universe to be suppressed.

With the power of Lin Feng's internal universe now, forget about suppressing 13 Chaotic spirit beasts, even 23 Chaotic spirit beasts would not pose any problems.

However, Lin Feng was not happy at all. His expression was very solemn, and his body was constantly maintaining the circulation of the cosmic power. Behind him, there was still the universe phantom, making Lin Feng appear infinitely majestic.

"It's that Chaotic spirit beast!"

Perfected Lord Wind, the Mystic Stone City Lord, and the others no longer had the time to be shocked, because they had already seen the Chaotic spirit beast with a human head and a snake's body. Its entire body was scarlet as blood.

The Torch Dragon. It was almost identical to the legendary divine beast, the Torch Dragon, except that it did not have the supreme authority of the Torch Dragon divine beast.

"Human cultivator."

The Torch Dragon spoke in human language, its eyes filled with coldness. "You really want to stop me?"

Lin Feng shook his head and said calmly, "I'm not stopping you. I'm a cultivator, and you're a Chaotic spirit beast. Killing is boundless on the Hallowed Beast Continent. There's long been no right or wrong to it."

"That's right, there's indeed no right or wrong. I have the Torch Dragon bloodline. The Torch Dragon bloodline in my body is incomparably pure. I've lain dormant for tens of thousands of years before finally activating the bloodline in my body. I wish to unify the entire Hallowed Beast Continent, and help myself in reaching the peak. My bloodline might even revert to its ancestral state and allow me to become a divine beast! Those who stop me shall be mortal enemies to me, just like those who stop you cultivators from attaining your principle!"

The Torch Dragon's tone was cold, and there was indeed boundless killing intent in it.

Just as the Mystic Stone City Lord and the others had analyzed, this Torch Dragon was indeed very ambitious. Moreover, the extent of its ambition even exceeded everyone's imagination.

They only speculated that the Torch Dragon might want to subdue many Chaotic spirit beasts and establish a huge dire beast faction to dominate a region. However, they did not expect that the Torch Dragon's ambition to exceed even this. Rather, it wanted to dominate the entire Hallowed Beast Continent, and become its only ruler!

He could even use the power of the Hallowed Beast Continent to become a divine beast. Such ambition was greater than that of any Chaotic spirit beast.

Lin Feng shook his head and said, "You have the Torch Dragon bloodline, and is the descendant of a divine beast. You should know that the bloodline is the reason of both your success and failure. Although your Torch Dragon bloodline is very strong, there can only be one Torch Dragon divine beast in the world. No matter how strong you are, even after activating your bloodline to its peak state, you can only be a Chaotic spirit beast, and will never become a Chaotic divine beast!"

This was an ironclad rule. The bloodline was the reason for both success and failure. No matter how strong a Chaotic spirit beast was, it could not break through its shackles.

The Torch Dragon sneered, and there was a faint trace of madness in its eyes.

"Heh, your knowledge is limited. Indeed, there can only be one Torch Dragon divine beast in the world, but who said that Chaotic spirit beasts like us will never be able to become Chaotic divine beasts? There's another way, and that is to devour the originator of the bloodline, the ancestor of the bloodline, the Torch Dragon divine beast in the Chaos. Then, I can replace it and become the new Torch Dragon divine beast! If I want to devour it, I need power, great power. Only by relying on the power of the entire Hallowed Beast Continent can I have a trace of hope.

"This is my path. Those who stand in my way shall die!"

The Torch Dragon's voice was hoarse, and its tone revealed coldness, madness, and obsessiveness. Just as the Torch Dragon had said, this was its path. It had nothing to do with right or wrong. Those who obstructed its path were mortal enemies, and it would fight them to the death.

Lin Feng closed his eyes, then opened them suddenly.

"You have your own path, and I have mine! I'm a cultivator, so my stand is the same as that of the cultivators. You tried to monopolize the Hallowed Beast Continent and use the power of the entire continent to get your chance of attaining your goal, when there's only the slimmest hope to it. I and all the cultivators will not allow it!"

Lin Feng's expression was solemn. His way was actually to protect, and he was not without principles. If he did not have any principles, Lin Feng would not have accomplished what he had today.

But now, this Torch Dragon was trying to monopolize the entire Hallowed Beast Continent. If all cultivators did not submit, only death awaited them. This was also inconsistent with Lin Feng's path.

Those with diverging ideals must go their separate ways!

Moreover, there were still irreconcilable life-or-death conflicts between them.

"In that case, let's fight. I'll devour all of you, and no one will be able to stop me anymore…"

The Torch Dragon's eyes narrowed slightly, and its expression instantly calmed. However, the madness in its eyes seemed to intensify.
