213: Chapter 213 Eighth-Order Beast Emperor Bloodline! Complete Beast Transformation Unleashed!
At the edge of the sinkhole, three figures froze like stone statues.
"Where is my web? Where is my massive Myriad Spider Matrix?"
"Have I been guarding nothing for the past five years?"
Ye Canglan felt his worldview being smashed into eight pieces by a hammer.
"Impossible!"
Mountain Demon had just been sketching out his grand blueprint of sitting on the "Throne of Ten Thousand Beasts" and ruling the world, but now, looking at those dozens of sixth-rank elite Magic Spiders tied by their necks like dogs and forced to "work," his entire train of thought short-circuited.
"That was over a thousand high-rank Magic Spiders! Even if an eighth-rank Source Beast Emperor arrived in person, it would be impossible to wipe them all out in such a short time!"
"Big Brother…"
Tiger Fiend instinctively wanted to take half a step back, but hindered by Mountain Demon's presence, he forcibly steadied himself.
His icy blue vertical pupils scanned Su Ming three times, finally resting on that body that clearly lacked any Source Energy fluctuations.
"Could that 'Silver Blood Body Cultivator' mentioned in the intelligence… be him?"
Mountain Demon's pupils contracted sharply.
He recalled the mission submitted by the The Fifth Speaker before they set out.
They only knew that this high school student had killed the Scorpion King and possessed complete Silver Blood, but his true combat power was unknown!
At the time, Mountain Demon had scoffed.
Scorpion King?
Although that trash held the title of a sixth-rank Peak, he was essentially a defective product propped up by potions.
He had transplanted a seventh-rank Source Beast Bloodline but couldn't even reach a 30% beastification rate; was such a person worthy of being called a Beast Seal Envoy?
But now…
Looking at the mountain of Magic Spider corpses piled up who knows how many layers deep below, cold sweat began to uncontrollably seep from Mountain Demon's back.
"No, this is wrong!"
He shook his head violently, as if trying to shake off those thoughts.
"This kid must have some ancient divine weapon on him! Yes! It must be some kind of large-scale deterrence or lethal ancient divine weapon! I've heard that the Federation Marshal has one!"
Tiger Fiend nodded helplessly at the side, but the apprehension in his vertical pupils could not be hidden.
'No, Big Brother, you just said that level of treasure is only owned by the Marshal… This kid is just a high school student, where would he get one? Is your logic chain a bit flawed?'
Well, actually, Mountain Demon realized it too.
But he was unwilling to admit another possibility…
That this youth possessed the strength to crush over a thousand high-rank Magic Spiders on his own.
But this was even more despairing than believing the Spider King was the Master of the Same Origin!
Once he accepted this premise, what he was about to do would change from "capturing prey alive" to a "suicide mission."
Mountain Demon stared fixedly at Su Ming with his orange-gold pupils.
No Source Energy fluctuations.
There wasn't even a shred of Source Energy on this kid!
No matter how strong one's physical techniques are, there is an inherent limit.
A Physical Body without Source Energy protection has a calculable load-bearing capacity.
Thinking of this, Mountain Demon's initial shock was quickly replaced by an even more extreme greed.
Ancient divine weapon!
Complete Silver Blood!
Both things were on this brat!
"Tiger Fiend!"
Mountain Demon roared lowly, flipped his palm, and a metal syringe containing scarlet liquid appeared in his palm.
Seeing that potion, Tiger Fiend was also invigorated: "Berserk Serum?!"
This was a top-tier combat potion that only those at the Speaker level were qualified to redeem from headquarters!
It could allow a Beast Seal Envoy to break through Bloodline limits in a short time and significantly increase their beastification degree!
"Take this serum," Mountain Demon tossed the potion to Tiger Fiend, "Combined with your eighth-rank Source Beast Emperor Bloodline, it should allow you to temporarily touch the threshold of complete beastification."
Tiger Fiend caught it steadily, his eyes bursting with brilliance.
Mountain Demon's gaze turned to the lethargic Ye Canglan on the other side, his voice full of command: "Are you confident you can take down that half-dead Spider King?"
"Leave it to me!"
Tiger Fiend was confident.
Dealing with a seventh-rank that had just broken out of its cocoon and was already heavily injured by them, plus this Berserk Serum, was a piece of cake.
He then looked at Mountain Demon with some doubt: "Then what about you, Big Brother…"
The corners of Mountain Demon's mouth curled up, revealing a mouthful of ghastly white teeth.
"That serum is useless to me now."
He slowly raised his already fully beastified giant ape right arm, feeling the surging power within it, his voice low and arrogant.
"Because… I can already achieve [Complete Beastification] with my own power!"
"What?!"
Tiger Fiend was completely shocked.
"Then doesn't that mean you can compete for the position of Speaker?!"
"So what if I'm a Speaker?"
Mountain Demon snorted coldly, looking at Su Ming greedily.
"Once I capture this brat and dig out all the secrets on him, everything in the world will belong to us brothers!"
Before the words fell, Mountain Demon roared to the sky, the sound waves making the entire sinkhole buzz.
"Come on!!!"
The giant ape mark on the back of his right hand erupted with blinding blood-red light!
[Demon Ape · Vajra Transformation]!
Beastification — 50% Liberation!
"Crack! Crack!"
Amidst the tooth-aching sound of bones popping, Mountain Demon's body began to undergo drastic mutations.
His left sleeve was instantly blown apart, and muscles covered in black, coarse hair knotted and bulged, forming a perfect symmetry with his right arm.
His pant legs also burst, his leg bones expanded and swelled, and his feet mutated into black giant beast claws; just by standing, he caused the rock layer beneath his feet to crack open.
His torso and head remained human, but the bony ape armor on the left half of his face spread all the way to his cheekbones, and two pale yellow fangs protruded hideously from his lips.
His height shot up from three meters to five meters!
His base strength was already over a hundred tons, and with the 50% beastification bonus, it skyrocketed exponentially, approaching three hundred tons!
He ignored the shocked Spider King beside him; he wanted to test this kid's mettle!
"Bang!"
The rock layer beneath his feet exploded under the five-meter giant body.
Mountain Demon tore through the air, fiercely leaping into mid-air, his black arm muscles twisted to the limit, unleashing a killing move directly in the air.
"[Demon Ape · Sky-Crushing Strike]!"
Boom—!
The three-hundred-ton punch pressure created a white sonic boom cloud in the air, accompanied by a screech that tore eardrums, heading straight for Su Ming's face below!
In Tiger Fiend's view, this strike was a guaranteed victory!
He also prepared to start beastification!
And Ye Canglan, who was targeted by him, saw the power of this punch, his dark purple vertical pupils contracting sharply.
'Such strong power! Even in my prime, I might not dare to take this beast's full-strength blow head-on!'
However.
Facing this punch, Su Ming had no intention of dodging.
Not only did he not dodge, but his eyes even erupted with a light of near ecstasy.
'What an overbearing force! Satisfying! My battle armor's repair progress, this wave is saved!'
"Boom!!!"
The entire sinkhole trembled.
The violent shockwave spread in a ring, blowing the dozens of tied-up sixth-rank Magic Spiders like kites, wailing in pain.
The fist had hit precisely!
A full-strength blow of three hundred tons, even a seventh-rank Awakened with a defense talent, would be smashed into a pulp on the spot!
Dust filled the sky, and the entire black stone ground beneath Su Ming collapsed into a spiderweb shape, and a human-shaped crater several meters deep instantly formed.
The sneer on Mountain Demon's face hadn't fully bloomed before it suddenly froze.
His beastified giant fist, which was enough to shatter a small mountain, had indeed smashed onto Su Ming's chest.
But…
The scene of chest bones shattering, internal organs exploding, and blood spraying wildly that he had imagined did not appear.
He felt that his punch hadn't hit a flesh-and-blood body at all.
It was like smashing into a celestial planet of infinite density.
"Hum…"
[Heavy Core Defense] triggered!
A force of counter-shock, vast and irresistible, followed the bright silver-blue patterns lit up on Su Ming's chest, traveled along Mountain Demon's arm, and crazily rolled back!
"Crack! Pfft—!"
The sound of bone fractures and muscle tearing rang out simultaneously!
On Mountain Demon's proud beastified right arm, the bulging muscles cracked over a large area, and deep red, scalding blood sprayed wildly!
His five-meter-tall, massive body was sent flying by this counter-shock force!
"Rumble…"
He plowed a terrifying gully dozens of meters long on the hard black stone ground, and finally crashed into the mountain wall in the distance before barely stopping.
Su Ming moved his shoulder, which was a bit numb from the shock, and felt overjoyed after seeing the panel prompt.
[Repair progress +0.25%!]
'Comfortable! Three hundred tons of force is just different. This vibration has strong penetration, much more stimulating than those dozens of sixth-rank spiders gnawing at me earlier. It topped off half a day's worth of progress in one go!'
He remained calm, slowly lifting his eyelids.
Looking at the slightly embarrassed giant figure, he slowly spat out two words:
"Is that it?"
"Pfft…"
Mountain Demon felt a sweetness in his throat, and a mouthful of blood sprayed out.
He struggled to jump out of the mountain wall crater, his right arm numb and still without feeling.
He stared fixedly at the unscathed youth at the bottom of the crater, his orange-gold vertical pupils filled with ferocity and madness!
Impossible!
Absolutely impossible!!
As the owner of the [Vajra Body], a rare Enhancement Type talent within the Tongyuan Society, combined with the eighth-rank power-type Source Beast Emperor Bloodline, even among the top brass of the Tongyuan Society, in terms of pure strength, he could firmly rank in the top five!
He would never allow himself to be played like a monkey by a brat who didn't even have Source Energy!
And he couldn't accept that his own full-strength blow, which he was proud of, not only didn't hurt the opponent at all, but instead shocked himself into a serious injury!
"Kid… you have successfully angered me."
Mountain Demon roared a shrill, inhuman cry to the sky!
He completely released the last bit of suppression on the alien beast genes in his body.
"Roar…!"
Massive blood-colored Source Energy gushed out from his body, staining the surrounding air with a layer of blood color.
His five-meter body, under the shroud of blood-colored light, began to skyrocket crazily again!
Six meters!
Eight meters!
Ten meters!
Jet-black beast fur sprouted crazily from the back of his neck, chest, and spine, and thick keratinous armor plates quickly covered his entire chest and abdominal cavity.
The facial bones exploded with a "crack," completely protruding forward to form a hideous giant ape muzzle, and two fangs grew to half a meter long.
His eyes completely turned into pure orange-gold beast pupils without any human emotion!
Twelve meters!
A true primordial giant ape stood in the sinkhole.
A low, thick voice exploded in the canyon.
Mountain Demon leaned down slightly, his beastified claws digging deep into the rock layer, that heavy, suffocating sense of power making Tiger Fiend and Ye Canglan in the distance tremble with fear.
"Eighth-rank Source Beast Emperor Bloodline…"
"Gigantopithecus…"
"—Complete Liberation!"
