Qingfeng Li laughed and said, “A dumb lion like you doesn't seem that dumb now. You finally realized that, thanks to your Saint Lion Fist which tempered my body, bones, and spirit, I successfully learned the Laws of Greater Dao and became a middle-grade saint.”

Qingfeng Li thought that the Nine-headed Golden Lion was a dumba.s.s, having had no idea that he helped Qingfeng Li so much.

The Nine-headed Golden Lion's face went green and he thought that he was being made fun of. He did not kill Qingfeng Li in front of many self-cultivators but helped Qingfeng Li reach a breakthrough. Everything was absolutely humiliating.

The Nine-headed Golden Lion looked at Qingfeng Li and said, “You think that I can't kill you anymore after you became a middle-grade saint? Here comes my Saint Lion Fist.”

Qingfeng Li laughed and said arrogantly, “Your Saint Lion Fist could not kill me before. Now that I had my breakthrough, it is even more impossible now. Come on, show me how strong your Saint Lion Fist is.”

The Nine-headed Golden Lion was enraged by Qingfeng Li's words. He channeled the vital essence stored in his body frantically and concentrated all of it to his fist.

His 18 fists appeared in the sky at the same time. Every fist was at least a dozen of feet tall, and they covered the sky and the sun.

The sky and ground shattered when the fists pa.s.sed over them, and the fists. .h.i.t Qingfeng Li violently while carrying an unbeatable amount of frantic energy.

Qingfeng Li was very calm. He channeled the Mortal Purgatory Body inside his body and suddenly swung his right fist. Saint patterns flashed on his fist, and his fist was also surrounded by the Rules of Greater Dao. His fist then collided with the eighteen fists from the Nine-headed Golden Lion, which created an ear-shattering sound.

That noise was enough to shake the entire lake, even the water in the lake went up and created more loud noises.

The thuds made the sky tremble, and a lightning bolt struck down. However, when the lightning hit the frantic energy from Qingfeng Li and the Nine-headed Golden Lion, it dissipated, which showed clearly how strong their energy was.

The other self-cultivators all backed off constantly. Even though they had backed off to somewhere very far away, they were still suppressed by the violent energy.

Some weak self-cultivators even fell to the ground because they were so scared, and spat out blood.

For example, the Clear-Wood Saintess, Yun Lan, and the others' faces went pale, blood flew out from the corner of their mouths, and they were severely injured by this violent energy.

At the most critical moment, Black Puppy stretched out his paw and formed a strong black defensive light veil, and covered the Clear-Wood Saintess, Yun Lan, and the others with it. The veil blocked the effects from the strong energy and prevented them from getting injured.

Qingfeng Li did not forget about the Blood Sea Saint while fighting the Nine-headed Golden Lion. Qingfeng Li also created a big defensive light veil and covered the Blood Sea Saint with it, so she would not get affected by the after-effect of the energy.

The Blood Sea Saint looked at Qingfeng Li without blinking with her beautiful eyes, shock filling her eyes with a little sense of surprise.

The Blood Sea Saint did not expect Qingfeng Li to be so strong. While being two levels down, he was still able to go even with the Nine-headed Golden Lion.

Not to mention that the Nine-headed Golden Lion had eighteen fists and nine heads, which made him much stronger than all the other self-cultivators. Not to mention that it became a demonic saint from a demonic beast, his physical power was also very strong.

Unfortunately Qingfeng Li's Strangle h.e.l.l Fist was not in any way weaker than his, so they were fighting very intensively.

The two fought from the sky to the ground, and the ground to the sky. Constant explosions in the sky and black holes appeared one by one.

The black holes broke the s.p.a.ce and caused time to distort. It also sliced everything and created a million feet wide hole.

Qingfeng Li was not weaker than the Nine-headed Golden Lion when it came to physical power.

As the two were fighting, they came to the top of the Thunder Lake. There was lots of water in the Thunder Lake and it kept on turning over, and the Thunder Lake was surrounded by lightning bolts.

Qingfeng Li and the Nine-headed Golden Lion Avatar were fighting each other to death, and they did not care about the thunder and lightning above the Thunder Lake at all.

The two bathed in thunder and lightning and kept on fighting. Some lightning struck right onto them but rebounded at their violent energy.

There were some strong lightning bolts that injured them and made them tremble, but Qingfeng Li and the Nine-headed Golden Lion did not care.

They only had eyes for each other right now, and they only wanted to kill each other, this was the only thing on their mind.

Qingfeng Li and the Nine-headed Golden Lion fought for three hundred rounds, but the winner or loser still could not be identified.

The Nine-headed Golden Lion Avatar thought for awhile and retrieved his eighteen fists, he then said, “I guess my Saint Lion Fist could not kill you. If that is the case, then I will use Golden Saint Hammer.”

Qingfeng Li laughed and said, “Use your magic weapon already, I have been wanting to see what exactly your magic weapon is.”

The Nine-headed Golden Lion said arrogantly, “You will die as you meet my magic weapon.”

The Nine-headed Golden Lion moved his mind and took out a giant hammer from his storage ring.

This hammer was ginormous. It was thousands of feet big, gold, and it had seals of nine lions engraved on it, in which the lions spat out lightning bolts.

As soon as the giant hammer appeared, the s.p.a.ce around exploded, and even the lightning bolts seemed to fear the power of the giant hammer and could not dare to get closer.

All the faces of the self-cultivators who saw this scene changed, and some of the people even screamed.

“That is the Golden Saint Hammer! I definitely did not expect the Nine-headed Golden Lion to have it.”

“That's right. Some say that it is a saint item at the pinnacle tier, but it was damaged and became a high-grade saint item. Even then, this dharma treasure is still very strong and it can absorb thunder and lightning.”

“That's why the thunder and lightning above the Thunder Lake tried to avoid this place, they are scared of getting absorbed by the Golden Saint Hammer. This dharma treasure is so strong.”

“Qingfeng Li is in danger, I think he is going to die this time for sure, since the dharma treasure is something that even thunder and lightning fear.”

The self-cultivators talked among themselves and looked at the Nine-headed Golden Lion with hot eyes.

Of course, they were looking at the Golden Saint Hammer in the Nine-headed Golden Lion's hands with hot eyes. That was an amazing dharma treasure, it was even famous throughout the universe.

Many people wanted to obtain this dharma treasure, but it disappeared mysteriously a thousand years ago. No one expected the Nine-headed Golden Lion to have it in the end.

Qingfeng Li frowned, he could sense frantic energy on top of the Golden Saint Hammer. He could also feel that this dharma treasure was extremely powerful. It could absorb thunder and lightning just like Qingfeng Li's Thunder Pearl.

But Qingfeng Li was not scared, since he had practiced the Thunder Chant and could release thunder and lightning by himself.

Not to mention that Qingfeng Li stored some thunder and lightning in his body. Even though there were not a lot of them, he was not scared. After all, he could still take out his Thunder Pearl and go head-on with the Nine-headed Golden Lion Avatar's Golden Saint Hammer, which could probably cancel some power of thunder and lightning.
