In the face of the two ferocious beasts with the strength of Celestial God Realm warriors, Weber trembled in fear and was convinced that he wouldn't live to see another day.
Technically, the top level of the Star God Realm was only a level lower compared to the low-level of the Celestial God Realm. However, this gap that existed between them was so unimaginably huge.
In the record of the entire Primitive Wilderness, no warrior at the top level of the Star God Realm was able to ever defeat a warrior at the low-level of the Celestial God Realm. Though, of course, some mighty warriors at the top level of the Star God Realm that possessed extremely powerful divine weapons and high-level cultivation methods might fight on par with the warriors at the low-level of the Celestial God Realm.
Although, these warriors were pretty rare, and were expected to just appear once in a billion years.
Weber's strength was actually not to be underestimated. For a warrior who was just at the middle-level of the Star God Realm, he could overwhelm those who were at the top level of the Star God Realm. However, what he was facing now was a beast at the Celestial God Realm.
He clearly knew that even if he exerted all his efforts and unleashed his most powerful skills, it would be useless. In fact, after receiving a single strike from one of the beasts, he wanted to run as far as possible, fearing that his life might be crushed in an instant.
Swoosh!
One of the beasts quickly blocked Weber's way, while the other one remained motionless.
"You lowly human. Are you planning to escape from us? Quit dreaming!" the beast in front of him roared in a low and deep voice.
Weber's face instantly turned pale. His jaw dropped in shock upon hearing that the beast just spoke the human language.
Actually, it was normal for the beasts of their level to easily learn the human language because they possessed such high intelligence.
"What have I done? We have no enmity with each other! Why can't you just let me go?" Weber clenched his fist and mustered his courage to argue with the beast.
"Are you an idiot? You have the blood of our king on your body. You are the enemy of our race. You're not going anywhere because you'll die here!" the beast answered firmly.
"What?" Weber was kind of confused, but then it dawned on him that the mark that his master left on his body was actually made of the blood of a beast king who had died. Obviously, this race of intelligent beasts would immediately take him for an enemy the moment they had a whiff of the blood's scent.
"Hey, Weber! Your master must have done that on purpose in order to further your cultivation. This battle is inevitable, so just get to it already. Come on! Stop running around," Darren shouted from the sideline with a smile on his face.
"That old bastard is really a pain in the ass! Well, fine. At least I'd die with honor!"
Weber finally made up his mind and rushed towards the huge beast.
Somehow, the two beasts wanted the fight to be fair, and they thought one of them was enough to defeat Weber, so the other one did not participate and just stayed behind.
Then, golden spikes of god's power suddenly surfaced from Weber's fat body. He rolled towards the beast, looking like a huge golden spiked ball.
Crash!
Weber collided with the beast's body but was just bounced back.
"Damn! I can't break the beast's defense!"
Weber's earlier fiery fighting spirit was instantly dampened upon seeing that the beast didn't even budge from his attack.
"Ha! Is that all you've got? Then, I'll use your death as an offering to our king's soul!"
With that, the ferocious beast started walking steadily towards Weber.
"Darren, help me!" Weber shouted as tears began welling up in his eyes.
"You're more than pathetic! You're asking for help from someone weaker than you?" the beast said in a disdainful tone. He easily discerned that Darren's cultivation base was, in fact, a level lower than Weber's.
"Come on! Use your shining body to attack me again, you big wimp!" the beast challenged the fat man. However, at this moment, Darren dashed forward and instantly stood in front of Weber.
"Humph! You want to act tough? Be the first one to die!" the beast yelled. He got annoyed that the weaker human attempted to be a hero.
Crash! Boom!
In a flash, the beast's colossal body leaped into the air and dove straight towards Darren. He waved his gigantic claws that carried a devastating power.
The beast's movements were so fast that Darren didn't have enough time to dodge his attack.
Buzz! Buzz!
Before the beast landed his attack, several sword intents suddenly emerged and spiraled around Darren, forming a formidable shield.
At the same time, dark gold god's power also surged out from his body.
As the claws of the beast collided with Darren's shield made of sword intent, the golden radiance suddenly dissipated. His defensive barrier was utterly broken, and the huge claws directly landed on his body.
"No! Darren!" Weber screamed at the top of his lungs, assuming that something bad had happened to Darren.
"Shut the hell up! You're going to suffer the same fate soon,"
the beast that was on standby roared and warned him.
"No. No! I can't die yet. I have been alone ever since I was a child and I've suffered too much. I've just finally tasted some freedom. Can't I just live for a few more years?" Weber pleaded with a frown on his face. He wore an expression that seemed to have already given up on his life.
"Hey, fatty! Get a grip! Why are you such a coward?"
Suddenly, Darren's figure emerged beside Weber, looking at him contemptuously.
"D-Darren? You're still alive?"
