Chapter 183: Crazy Food Rankings

The old lion stepped forward, speaking sternly, and declared that it would certainly slay anyone causing chaos in the world if it encountered them. It further stated that it would show no mercy, regardless of this person's origin or identity, directly suppressing and killing them. No plea would be of any use. Clearly, its declaration demonstrated its resolve: even if this person truly came from the holy city of Jerusalem, it would kill them without hesitation.

How many people dared to be so domineering, to underestimate the holy city, the sacred land of three religions? Only the old lion's tone could be so unyielding, because it was truly fearless. It was one of the first beings to break free from the six shackles. Its strength was terrifying, and it had always been at the forefront of evolution, becoming the king closest to invincibility.

Both East and West were shaken, and Jerusalem, which had always been calm and undisturbed, unexpectedly spoke out. This was because the people there believed the old lion's stance was a clear act of contempt towards the holy city of Jerusalem, and they declared, "Why not come and fight!" People were somewhat bewildered. Was Jerusalem also getting involved?

"No way, did this god-like figure really come from Jerusalem?" People were alarmed. For the past two days, everyone had been suspicious, feeling that something was amiss, as they believed there was no conflict of interest between Jerusalem and the Eastern Expeditionary Army. Yet, that god-like figure repeatedly slew the Eastern Expeditionary Army's king-level masters and even roasted their flesh until golden, eating it as food. This was a desperate, no-holds-barred conflict, designed to provoke them beyond measure!

After analysis, people concluded this was highly unusual. Jerusalem had no reason to get involved in this mess and certainly no need to completely break ties with the Eastern Expeditionary Army, leading to an endless conflict. Therefore, after careful study over these past two days, some people believed that person might have another identity!

However, with people from Jerusalem now stepping forward, what did this mean? Were they targeting the old lion? Everyone was utterly confused. Could that formidable individual truly be from the holy city? If that were the case, the situation would become complicated, and a single misstep could lead to a multi-party war! Even Schiller, the Black Dragon King, and the Arctic King were getting restless. If Jerusalem truly got involved, what would be the point of the Eastern Expedition? Their own backyard would be on fire!

Chu Feng was speechless. He had wanted to provoke the old lion but hadn't expected the people of Jerusalem to step forward and complicate the situation so much. He was content to watch the show, remaining hidden and waiting to see what would happen next.

On this day, Schiller finally managed to contact a powerful figure from Jerusalem. In fact, he had been trying for days, and only now did he get a result. "The so-called formidable individual is not a powerhouse from Jerusalem." Under Schiller's persistent questioning, the powerful figure clearly stated that it had nothing to do with them.

When this news spread, it caused a huge uproar, creating massive waves in both the East and the West and making all major powers restless. This left Chu Feng rather disappointed. Jerusalem, considering itself transcendent, had not explained earlier, but now it was unwilling to take the blame for someone else and directly clarified the situation.

"We must find out who it is!" The Black Dragon King was furious, but he also breathed a sigh of relief. As long as that mysterious holy city wasn't involved, everything else was manageable. The Eastern Expeditionary Army was enraged. They had reason to believe this person most likely came from the East; otherwise, why would things be like this? This was an attempt to disrupt their vast rear! Moreover, they suspected that the leveling of the Vatican might also have been this person's doing. This was truly terrifying, sending shivers down their spines. Behind the Eastern Expeditionary Army, a terrifying entity was eyeing them covetously, watching all of them!

As for the East, it went without saying: all major financial groups and variant beings were in an uproar. They also believed this was a powerful Eastern individual making a move. "Is this going against the heavens? Is this formidable brother from our side, killing his way through alone?!" "What kind of identity does he have? One person causing such a huge commotion—could it be someone like the Peacock King or an old Grandmaster from Wudang?!" The East was in an uproar, and people speculated widely. This formidable individual was actively attacking, which brought comfort to people's hearts. Daring to cause such a commotion in the West alone, unsettling the Eastern Expeditionary Army—truly astonishing.

"Such a person who operates in the shadows will amount to nothing and is not worth mentioning!" Schiller stepped forward, angered despite his deep cunning, as things had not been going well recently.

Chu Feng scoffed, saying, "You claim to be from the holy Church, the last knight, yet look at what you've done. You set up a sinister death trap, killed numerous kings, and piled bodies high in the Vatican. Do you even deserve to speak of light?"

By now, the outside world could largely guess what had happened in the Vatican massacre, and major powers already had a good idea. However, as victors become kings and losers become outlaws, Schiller, the Black Dragon King, and others were now advancing aggressively. They had formed an alliance with the ancient Yoga Master Vanlin, the Old Lion King, the Old Vampire King, and other powerful figures, creating an invincible force. Ordinary factions dared not provoke or seek revenge against them. Experts who had broken free from the six shackles could proudly look down upon all kings. There were six such individuals; who could contend against them when united? They could crush everything in their path!

Therefore, people could only look forward to the great battle at Kunlun Mountain, hoping it would halt the Eastern Expeditionary Army and inflict heavy losses upon them. Otherwise, if they truly gained power and took Kunlun, the consequences would be unimaginable, creating a momentum that would sweep across the world!

Chu Feng's words caused quite a stir in the Western world. People had previously acknowledged Schiller, but they harbored deep hatred for the Black Dragon King, always wanting to eliminate him, as this black dragon had massacred more than one city.

On the same day, the Western world was shaken. The old lion arrived and converged with the Old Vampire King. The two walked together, planning to jointly advance towards the East. In the Western world, some people truly wanted to blast them with missiles, but they feared their divine senses were too keen, allowing them to evade and then go on a murderous rampage. Such beings who had broken free from the six shackles were those even various nations dared not easily provoke.

"See you at Kunlun Mountain!" The old lion was a creature of action, speaking little but possessing terrifying resolve, and it intended to act.

Chu Feng appeared, challenging the old lion, saying, "Old fellow, do you really think you're invincible? However, lion meat is indeed exceptionally delicious, boasting an undisputed spot on the gourmet ranking list." Some people were suspicious, wondering what this meant: had he eaten lion meat? Previously, the old lion had threatened and warned him, stating it would kill him upon sight, but this formidable individual defied convention, vowing to eat lion meat. Now, was he making good on his promise? Everyone was convinced that no one could eat the old lion. Could something have happened to another lion king? But the other lion king was also renowned as undefeated among its peers, incredibly fierce, and should have been very difficult to kill! In fact, all the deceased king-level beings combined were not as powerful as a single Golden Lion!

"What do you mean?!" The old lion became restless, as it had been trying to contact the Golden Lion and receiving no response, which made it uneasy.

This day was destined to be far from peaceful. Chu Feng posted, exposing photos of boiled lion meat, which instantly detonated like a nuclear bomb, shocking both East and West. Following this, photos of roasted Golden Lion were also posted. "God, the Golden Lion, known as 'Little Invincible,' is dead and became food for that formidable individual? This world is too crazy!" Some people could hardly believe that the famous Golden Lion had actually been roasted by someone. This was a shocking event that reverberated across the world. Its strength and standing alone were greater than all other deceased kings combined. Next, photos of the Jackal King and the Vulture King were also displayed—one roasted, the other discarded in disgust. Everyone who saw them was dumbfounded! This created a storm, shaking every corner of the world!

How many king-level beings had this formidable individual truly killed? People counted on their fingers, and they didn't realize until they counted carefully, then they were truly startled! Ovid, White Bear... Golden Lion, Jackal King, Vulture. Everyone felt dizzy, trembling in fear and disbelief! So many kings had been wiped out! Such a record of achievement shocked the world! A careful calculation left people breathless. The achievements were too glorious, shaking human society and causing a tsunami!

"Ah..." The old lion roared, shaking the European continent. It had gone mad. Swathes of mountains and forests exploded. In the old lion's roar, towering ancient trees burst apart, and thousand-pound rocks shot towards the sky before exploding. This sight was terrifying. If this happened in a city, the consequences would be unimaginable, leading to countless casualties. This was the peerless sonic ability—Lion's Roar!

The old lion and the Old Vampire King traveled overnight, heading for the Mist Canyon passage in Greece. A beast king bird carried them at breakneck speed, even faster than an airplane.

Soon, Chu Feng, whom the king-level beings of the Western world called the "Demon," ascended to the top spot on the kill list. Many called him a god-like figure or a formidable individual, but in the eyes of the old lion, the Black Dragon King, and others, he was a devil. This list had just been personally created by Schiller. It could be said that this list was specifically created for the Demon, offering a reward to the entire world: whoever could kill the Demon would receive the opportunity to become a peerless expert. They stated clearly that anyone who could provide valuable clues could enter the Land of Ten Thousand Gods with the Black Dragon King, the old lion, and others, and receive an equal opportunity to pick sacred fruits. This caused a huge sensation!

Chu Feng scoffed, saying, "Offering other people's sacred fruits as a bounty—you truly live up to your name as bandits!"

On the same day, Chu Feng's concocted gourmet ranking list was released, completely overturning the Eastern Expeditionary Army's power ranking list and utterly slandering the latter. This list was too wild, featuring all the king-level beings he had eaten. A quick glance revealed there were so many! People in both the East and West were stunned. Currently, the Golden Lion held the top spot on the gourmet ranking list, followed by Chu Feng's commentary, stating its meat was tender and tasted superb. "I look forward to old guys like the Black Dragon King and the Arctic King replacing the Golden Lion's position." Such a comment was clearly a challenge and a provocation.

People were shocked to discover that this time the formidable individual's post was somewhat different: it was actually written in Eastern script! This was tantamount to confirming that he was from the East! Earlier, everything had been mere speculation, but now the main character himself had revealed the truth—he was an Easterner. How could people not be astonished?!

Subsequently, a storm erupted. The insane gourmet list swept across the globe, making headlines in various countries. One person killing and eating so many king-level beings—just thinking about it left people dumbfounded. "Oh god-like figure, what else do you dare not eat?!" "Unbelievably fierce!" "Formidable individual, reveal your identity. Who exactly are you?!" People worldwide were greatly astonished, sparking widespread discussion.

Chu Feng calculated the time and realized the old lion and others were about to step onto Eastern soil. The great decisive battle at Kunlun Mountain was approaching, and it was time for him to make a choice. Should he continue operating in the West, or rush back to participate in the war? He began trying to contact Yellow Ox and Big Black Ox, who should have awakened by now. He wanted to first inquire about the situation from them.

At Kunlun Mountain, Yellow Ox and Big Black Ox had been in low spirits for the past two days because Chu Feng had "died." This made them very disappointed, as Chu Feng had led away the powerful enemies, buying them a chance to escape. Just then, Yellow Ox's communicator rang. It listlessly answered, saying, "Who is this?"
