However, Wang Batian neither dodged nor flinched, but simply stood there and let the flames scorch him.
Wang Batian: "That's right, your flames are even more powerful than the fire of the phoenix."
Lin Qing: "I didn't expect that your physical strength wouldn't even have an effect on the Samadhi Fire?"
Wang Batian: "Haha, of course it works! Look, my body is cracked. I would have died if I had been burning for another hour or so."
Lin Qing looked closely and, sure enough, Wang Batian's body was slowly cracking, and some cracks had already appeared on his body.
Lin Qing: "Since that's the case, then I'll add some more fuel to the fire."
Suddenly, the flames increased three or four times, and the temperature kept rising, even turning the floor tiles into lava-like shapes.
"It's so hot, what's going on?" The Ghost King slowly got up from the building made of special metal, and the metal around him woke him up by the heat.
He was extremely weak, but could barely walk. He then mobilized a little spiritual energy and slowly flew out.
He then witnessed Lin Qing displaying his incredible power, but his own life was more important; if he stayed in the air any longer, he would be cooked alive by the intense heat.
Back in the ranks of the righteous and demonic factions, they instantly felt much cooler. Although they couldn't defeat Wang Batian, this little matter was no problem for them.
Lin Qing looked at Wang Batian, who was standing motionless with his eyes closed, and thought, "Damn it, what is Wang Batian doing? I don't believe he's just going to stand there and let me burn him to death."
"Hmm?" Suddenly, Lin Qing noticed something was wrong with Wang Batian. A surge of power suddenly emanated from Wang Batian's cracked body.
Lin Qing immediately focused his divine sense and attacked Wang Batian's head. However, his divine sense seemed to have hit a wall and could not advance an inch.
"Haha, it worked!"
Wang Batian roared to the sky, his whole body radiating golden light, and he transformed into a tiny golden figure.
A flash of golden light disappeared in an instant, and Wang Batian, naked, appeared in everyone's sight. This time, Wang Batian didn't bother to take anything out to block, after all, he was inside the Samadhi True Fire.
Lin Qing's expression changed slightly: "Damn it, I didn't expect you to be even stronger, and you even broke through with the help of my flames."
Seeing Lin Qing retract the flames, Wang Batian immediately took out a pair of capri pants and put them on.
Wang Batian: "You are truly my precious treasure. Now I want you to be my mount even more."
"The Primordial Golden Body Technique, which had made no progress in ten years, has now broken through to the fourth level. Its power has doubled, and it has gained a new divine ability. Haha."
"Once you become my mount, I will make sure you use the Samadhi Fire to exercise my body every day."
Lin Qing: "Hmph, that depends on whether you have the ability."
Seeing the overwhelming power of Wang Batian, the sect leaders who had previously thought Lin Qing could defeat him were now ashen-faced.

In contrast, the people of the empire were extremely excited, never expecting that their emperor was even more powerful than rumored.
The emperor of the Mingyu Empire, Wang Batian, is their pride, and they are willing to give anything for him.
The next moment, Wang Batian's figure disappeared from the spot. Lin Qing was horrified and immediately blocked in front of him.
The next second, a fist appeared on Lin Qing's arm, and Lin Qing was knocked back several steps by the punch.
Lin Qing: "So strong. I didn't expect your strength to have actually doubled."
Wang Batian didn't answer, but looked at Lin Qing with the eyes of someone looking at a pet. Wang Batian continued his attack, using both hands and feet.
A series of attacks left Lin Qing barely able to parry. To say he parried was an understatement; he was really just taking hits. If Lin Qing's body hadn't been so tough, he might have been defeated long ago.
However, in terms of strength, he is currently somewhat inferior to Wang Batian. Lin Qing loosened his clenched fist, and then Lin Qing's entire palm transformed into a dragon claw.
Seizing the opportunity, he swung his claw at Wang Batian. The latter thought Lin Qing was punching him and prepared to take the punch head-on, exchanging attack for attack.
"Hiss! Such sharp claws." Wang Batian took a few steps back, moving away from Lin Qing.
He then looked at the three deep, bone-revealing wounds on his chest.
Almost, if Wang Batian hadn't realized something was wrong and retreated immediately, that claw would have ripped through his heart.
Before long, Wang Batian's wound stopped bleeding and began to heal at a visible speed.
Lin Qing touched his claws: "I didn't expect your body to be so fragile." His other hand also transformed into a dragon claw.
"This is my first time fighting like this, so I'm still a bit inexperienced."
After saying that, Lin Qing attacked Wang Batian directly. Wang Batian knew that Lin Qing's claws could easily tear his body apart, so he didn't dare to confront him head-on.
He just kept dodging, and whenever he had an opportunity, he would punch Lin Qing. Before long, Wang Batian was covered in wounds.
Although they look scary, they are actually just superficial wounds that heal quickly.
The situation has now completely reversed. In most people's eyes, Lin Qing is now dominating Wang Batian and will definitely be able to kill him soon.
However, those with profound cultivation could see through it all. The two were evenly matched, since Lin Qing's body could completely withstand Wang Batian's attacks.
Wang Batian could withstand the wounds that Lin Qing would occasionally inflict, unless Lin Qing killed him with a single blow.
The people of the Mingyu Empire outside are all very worried, because in their eyes His Majesty is covered in blood and looks very miserable.
At this moment, Wang Batian punched Lin Qing away, sending him back more than a hundred meters away. Then, his whole body trembled, and all the blood on his body disappeared.
Completely unharmed, Wang Batian said, "I didn't expect you to be so strong. If I hadn't broken through today, I really wouldn't be your match."
Wang Batian was very excited. The stronger Lin Qing was, the more excited he became. After all, the stronger a mount under his control was, the better.
"Today I'll show you my supernatural powers."
As soon as he finished speaking, Wang Batian's entire body radiated golden light, and a loud shout rang out: "Golden Body Dharma Form, Heaven and Earth Dharma Form!"
Then the golden figure gradually grew larger and larger, until the 1.8-meter-tall Wang Batian became 2,000 meters tall.
Wang Batian's foot is now over 200 meters long, making this huge plaza seem incredibly small.
Wang Batian's voice rang out: "My people, retreat to a safe distance immediately. It will break my heart if you are accidentally injured."
[Ah, Your Majesty, Your Majesty can actually grow so big! A god, a god! Our Majesty is a god!]
Long live the Emperor! The Emperor is invincible!
[Your Majesty, we are not afraid. Even if we die, it will be worth it to witness Your Majesty's earth-shattering battle.]
We must step back; we cannot cause His Majesty pain. We must step back.
Then they all began to retreat, and suddenly there was no one left in the entire area except for the people from the righteous and demonic paths.
However, countless cameras were still running, recording this earth-shattering battle.
A huge fist came crashing down from the sky. Lin Qing quickly dodged, and then another fist came crashing down.
Lin Qing kept dodging, but suddenly, he was caught off guard and was kicked by Wang Batian.
"Pfft!" Lin Qing spat out a mouthful of blood, and his entire body shot through dozens of special alloy buildings that were harder than diamonds, just like an arrow released from a bow.
Wang Batian laughed wildly: "Haha, didn't expect that, did you? I am that powerful, and you will obediently submit to me."
"This supernatural power is truly amazing. I'm only at the fourth level now. If I cultivate it to the highest tenth level, how powerful will I be?" Wang Batian was filled with boundless fervor.
Lin Qing stood up from the ruins, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and thought to himself, "I didn't expect this transformation avatar to be so strong. I couldn't even withstand one move from it."
Lin Qing crashed through the building and soared into the sky, then transformed back into his original form.
It didn't stop growing after reaching 800 meters; it continued to grow until it reached 2,400 meters.
The scene was so powerful that hundreds of billions of people watched the live broadcast and witnessed Lin Qing's imposing and awe-inspiring presence.
My God, His Majesty's enemy is a dragon!
What a majestic and awe-inspiring dragon!
Yes, yes, it's completely different from the dragons we slaughter in special dungeons.
Yes, compared to this dragon, one is in the sky and the other is in the earth.
"Hiss, I didn't expect Wang Batian's Heaven and Earth Dharma Form to be so shocking, but this Senior Dragon King is even more so."
Dao Xuan: "Retreat! Quickly retreat back to the spatial gate. The battle here will break out soon. If we stay here, none of us will survive."
Immediately, the group headed straight for the portal, after all, their lives were at stake.
Wang Batian ignored them and let them return to the spatial gate. The leaders of the various sects did not enter but flew to a distance to watch the battle.
Wang Batian's eyes bulged out with excitement as he said, "Haha, that's great! You can actually become so powerful and mighty. Now I want to ride you even more."
Lin Qing couldn't hold back any longer, his face twitching: "Damn it, ride, ride, ride you!"
With a flick of its tail, Wang Batian threw a punch with his right hand.
The fist collided with the tail, and an invisible wave spread outwards, clearing away all the clouds within a range of hundreds of miles.
Lin Qing remained motionless, while Wang Batian, after being knocked back a few steps, regained his balance.
Wang Batian exclaimed in shock: "How is this possible? My strength has increased so many times over, yet you are stronger than me now?"
Lin Qing said calmly, "It's been a long time since I've transformed back into my original form. It's much more comfortable in my original form. Hehe, how can a human body compare to a dragon body?"

Without wasting words, Lin Qing flew over and grabbed at Wang Batian with a claw.
Upon seeing this, Wang Batian immediately jumped back, trying to dodge Lin Qing's attack. This jump covered most of the city.
When his feet landed, the entire capital city seemed to be shaken by an earthquake. His two feet directly collapsed more than a dozen buildings, causing countless deaths and injuries.
Wang Batian didn't care about anything else. It didn't matter how many of these lowly people died; if they didn't dodge, they would die.
Immediately, cries of agony filled the air, and this scene was witnessed by hundreds of billions of people, but they did not think it was Wang Batian's fault.
Because Wang Batian had told them to retreat, those people must have thought they were too far away, so they didn't retreat.
Before Wang Batian could make any move after landing, Lin Qing's claws were already on his head.
If it hits, Wang Batian's head will definitely be smashed. Without thinking twice, he quickly put his hands up to protect his head.
Three bloody marks appeared on Wang Batian's hand, stretching from his elbow down to the back of his hand.
Wang Batian roared in fury, "Damn it, how could you be so strong? How could you be so strong?"
