All one million of the Demonic Beasts began to howl in unison
âMy goodness! Is this kid insane? Where did he get the balls to call our Tyrant Dragon King an pygmy?â
âDo you really have to ask? This kid knows that heâs about to die, thatâs why he let his tongue run loose!â
âThatâs right! Our Tyrant Dragon King is above all! This kid is dead meat!â
âYour grace! Please give the order! I am willing to kill this midget for you!â
âMe too!â
âMe too!â
âKill him! Kill him!â
The Demonic Beasts began to chant, fuelled by their anger.
The Tyrant Dragon King was their absolute leader. By and large, none of them would dare offend their King!
And here was this idiot of a human scolding their king!
Not only was he was crossing the Tyrant Dragon Kingâs life, but he also managed to incur the wrath of all the other Demonic Beasts!
All the Tyrant Dragon King needed to do was give the order and the Demonic Beasts would charge forward and tear Chen Xiaobei to shreds!
âShut up, every one of you!â The Tyrant Dragon Kingâs roar silenced all the beasts.
The other Demonic Beasts became like little chicks, lying prostate on the ground, holding their breath.
The Tyrant Dragon King commanded his subjects to keep quiet because it feared the blood red light which was before Chen Xiaobei.
Chen Xiaobei against one million Demonic Beasts! This was exactly like the time Zhuge Liang went up against Sima Yi!
This was gamble of life and death!
With Chen Xiaobei pretending to let the Tyrant Dragon King have it, it was not unlike the time when Zhuge Liang sat above the city gates, calmly playing the guqing. They had the same effect.
Had Zhuge Liang showed even a trace of year, Sima Yi would have charged into the city!
Similarly, if Chen Xiaobei had not retorted, the Tyrant Dragon King would have charged forward.
It was because Chen Xiaobei withstood the pressure and retaliated, that the Tyrant Dragon King believed Chen Xiaobei had an edge over it.
And that edge was the area covered in blood red light!
The powerful Tyrant Dragon King dared not approach it.
So far, Chen Xiaobei and Linghu Shuangâs Empty Fort Strategy was working smoothly!
But as for whether or not they could hold the beasts off for three days three nights, would have to depend on how this matter developed.
âPygmy!â The Tyrant Dragon King stared down hard at Chen Xiaobei. âDo you know who youâre talking to? I can kill you with just a thought!â
On the surface, the Tyrant Dragon King was simply talking, but in reality, it was hurling an invisible oppressive force at Chen Xiaobei!
What a frightening force!
Chen Xiaobeiâs heart seized; feeling as if a giant mountain was pressing down on his chest, and smothering him!
Linghu Shuang was trembling even more intensely. Had she not been holding on to Chen Xiaobeiâs arm, she would have fallen to the ground unconscious.
This oppressive force was petrifying!
Prior to this, Chen Xiaobei had never feared any oppressive force. He had never even thought much of it.
But right now, Chen Xiaobei had experienced the essence of an oppressive force!
Putting it simply, an oppressive force was very similar to the Force of Nature. Both were used to exert pressure on the enemies.
However, the Force of Nature could only exert pressure on the enemies bodies, while oppressive force could exert force on enemies state of mind.
The strength of a personâs oppressive force had nothing to do with the personâs age or cultivation, but was connected to a personâs state of mind.
That was to say, only through experiencing enough adversity, would their oppressive force get really powerful! Then would it be able to crush othersâ state of mind.
âDo I look frightened to you? You want to kill me with only your oppressive force? Why donât you give it a try?â
Chen Xiaobei did not show any fear but challenged his enemy head on!
Right now, Chen Xiaobei had to be strong. If he showed any fear at all, everything he had done so far would be wasted! The 1 million young people behind him would die!
That was why Chen Xiaobei had to maintain a clam state of mind. Even if it would kill him, he had to resist the Tyrant Dragon Kingâs oppressive force.
âYou donât believe me?â Tyrant Dragon King roared. âThen let me show you! Then youâll know the difference between a pygmy like you and a king like me!â The Tyrant Dragon King channelled all of its oppressive force and unleashed them on Chen Xiaobei!
âHuh?â
Chen Xiaobeiâs pupils contracted. At that instant, his breathing ceased and his heart stopped beating. Seemingly, the Tyrant Dragon Kingâs oppressive force had managed to bring an unimaginable pressure on Chen Xiaobei. With the pressure, Chen Xiaobei could not help but start to visualize his state of mind being cracked open by the Tyrant Dragon King forcefully! And it was on the verge of being crushed completely!
Chen Xiaobei felt as if he had reached his limit. His state of mind could collapse at any moment.
Once that happened, Chen Xiaobeiâs willpower would cave in completely, and reveal his deep-seated fear of the Tyrant Dragon King!
Then Chen Xiaobei would become like those Demonic Beasts, lying prostrate on the ground, holding his breath and paralyzed out of terror!
It would be impossible then, to protect the others!
Luckily, Chen Xiaobeiâs state of mind was stronger than the average person. If Linghu Shuang was the only person at the receiving end of this oppressive force, her mind would have been crushed and she would have lost her sanity or literally be frightened to her death.
âI have to hang on! I have to hang on! If I fall, blood will be spilled and the people behind me will all perish! On top of that, my friends and family are still confined in the secret space. If I fall, who would be the one to bring them a better future?â
âHang on! I have to!â
Chen Xiaobei gritted his teeth, forcing himself to defend his state of mind.
âHey pygmy!â The Tyrant Dragon King said with contempt in his voice. âDonât waste your energy! Instead of trying so hard to resist me, why donât you just get down on your knees and beg for mercy? If you can find the Nine Twist Thousand Hearts Herb for me, not only will I have mercy on your life, but I will also reward you!â
âYou want me to kneel?! Dream on!â
It was difficult for Chen Xiaobei to speak but he was very firm.
The phrase âbeg for mercyâ was never in Chen Xiaobeiâs dictionary!
âPrepare to die because of your stubbornness!â
Chen Xiaobei rejected the Tyrant Dragon Kingâs generosity, making the King of Demonic Beasts feel greatly challenged. It then continued to unleash his oppressive force on Chen Xiaobei.
Suddenly, Chen Xiaobei could feel his chest completely suffocated and he could not help but throw up a mouthful of fresh blood.
