Just then, the Demon Beast suddenly opened its massive mouth and spewed a scorching flame. Gu Sheng's figure flickered; although he dodged the direct attack, the edge of his garment was still singed by the intense heat.
"That was close!" Gu Sheng muttered to himself with a sense of relief.
The Demon Beast seized the momentum and swung its gigantic claw toward Gu Sheng once again. This time, Gu Sheng chose not to evade. Instead, he activated the Ancient Sacred Body within him. His entire body gleamed with golden light, resembling a golden War God descended into the mortal world.
"Boom!" The golden fist collided fiercely with the Demon Beast's claw, producing a deafening roar. Gu Sheng's arm tingled slightly, but the Demon Beast was also shaken and retreated several steps.
