193: Chapter 193 Slaughtering the Beast King, Black Flame Behemoth! You... what right do you have!

Flesh and blood were growing wildly, and the Soul was undergoing a fundamental transformation.

The moment the LV50 System notification landed!

Lu Qingyun slowly spread his arms, his robes fluttering without wind, and the Aura around his body erupted into the sky like a volcanic eruption!

"Sshhh—!"

Countless crimson, blood-like vines burst forth from his body, growing, spreading, and unfolding madly!

One, a hundred, ten thousand...

The quantity was so vast it seemed endless, and in the blink of an eye, it obscured the entire firmament!

The blood-colored vines crisscrossed, weaving into an airtight crimson canopy that completely covered the sky for a hundred miles!

On the vines, the barbs were chilling.

Flowing with a heart-palpitating, corrosive luster, every single one emitted the terrifying pressure of the Dharma Aspect Realm!

The air was instantly filled with a thick, inseparable scent of blood and a sense of oppression, and even the earth below was trembling slightly.

In mid-air, the five human Dharma Form Grandmasters watched with eyes about to split, their hairs standing on end!

"That is… Blood Red Vine?!"

Master Ming exclaimed, his voice trembling, his face written with shock that overturned his cognition.

The martial arts world knows of this strange plant, the Blood Red Vine.

It is a supreme treasure for Physical-type Awakened, providing good benefits for Innate and Yukong Realm Martial Artists.

But this thing has Innate shackles; the strongest Blood Red Vine ever discovered was only at the Sky-Flying Realm, and it could not advance further.

But this one before them…

It blocked out the sky and sun, its pressure like a prison!

That was clearly… a Dharma Aspect Realm Blood Red Vine!

One can imagine the immense cost required to cultivate such a terrifying Blood Red Vine!

And the results achieved were also visible!

Having just entered the Dharma Aspect Realm, its power was monstrous, and its combat strength was formidable!

Everyone stared blankly at that sea of blood-colored canopy.

Beneath the firmament, Lu Qingyun stood in the center of the blood-colored canopy, his gaze sweeping calmly toward the eight shaken Dharma Aspect Realm beast kings in mid-air.

He did not make harsh threats, nor did he make any unnecessary movements.

He was even stingy with a single glance.

Yet, with just this light glance, the ten giant Slime Commanders, who had already simultaneously broken through to the Dharma Aspect Realm, moved instantly!

"Boom—!!!"

Ten azure thunder pillars shot into the sky simultaneously, dyeing half the sky into a sea of lightning!

The ten giant beasts walked through the air, every step causing the Void Realm to tremble, the pressure of the Dharma Aspect Realm erupting without reservation!

Ten against eight!

And the combat strength of each Slime Commander was far beyond that of an ordinary Early Stage Dharma Aspect Realm!

This was not an evenly matched fight; this was a complete and utter crushing defeat!

"Roar—!!"

The One-Horned Lion King's eyes were about to split, roaring as it swung its sharp claws, but it was tightly bound by the thunder chains thrown by two Slime Commanders simultaneously!

"Crack!"

The thunder exploded, and its entire right arm was instantly blown into a bloody mess!

Before it could even scream, a third thunderbolt had already pierced through its head!

"Splat!"

The massive beast head exploded with a boom, red and white matter splashing across the sky!

A Dharma Aspect Realm beast king, failing to last even three moves, fell on the spot!

A one-sided slaughter began!

Thunder roared, and beast cries were shrill.

In just a few short moments.

The eight fierce, monstrous Dharma Aspect Realm beast kings were all blasted to death!

The massive beast corpses crashed onto the earth like meteorites, creating bottomless pits!

[Ding! Killed LV51 One-Horned Lion King, Level EXP +18745213, Max HP permanently +2145789!]

[Ding! Killed LV50 Profound Ice Giant Bear, Level EXP +12457896, Max HP permanently +1687452!]

...

The System notification sounds were scrolling frantically, the EXP bar soaring, which made Lu Qingyun feel very satisfied.

But just at this moment!

"Boom—!!!"

Above the firmament, boundless black flames suddenly ignited!

Like stars falling, sky fire pouring down!

Dense black fireballs, carrying the power to burn everything to ash, smashed fiercely onto the blood-colored canopy!

"Sshhh— Sshhh—!"

The black flames scorched the vines, making a teeth-grinding sound.

The indestructible blood-colored canopy was actually burned through, leaving countless holes!

Lu Qingyun's gaze tightened, his mind stirring.

The Blood Red Vines filling the sky rolled back like a tide, all retracting into his body.

He looked up at the sky, his pupils slightly contracting.

He saw at the end of the firmament, a terrifying giant beast with a body exceeding a thousand zhang, stepping on black flames and slowly descending!

Its body was covered in ink-black scales, each scale burning with eerie black flames; wherever it passed, even the Void Realm was burned and distorted.

Its massive body lay across the horizon, like an endless black mountain range, pressing down so hard that the whole world couldn't catch its breath!

That pressure was far above the Dharma Aspect Realm!

Lu Qingyun looked at its head; on the System panel, there were still three glaring question marks.

[LV??? Black Flame Giant Beast: Currently in an extremely angry state, it is recommended not to provoke... However, you are already a Slime King! The majesty of a King cannot be profaned!]

As expected.

This giant beast had already surpassed the Dharma Aspect level.

But the next second, Lu Qingyun raised an eyebrow.

Wrong.

It was not one status bar.

It was two!

He shifted his gaze slightly upward, only then seeing that atop the head of this thousand-zhang giant beast, a palm-sized white little beast was crouching.

The little beast was entirely pearly white, its fur shining with a warm jade luster, and a pair of dark silver vertical pupils revealed a nobility and indifference that looked down upon all living beings. It crouched there quietly, appearing to merge with heaven and earth, yet its presence was even stronger than the thousand-zhang giant beast below.

The little white beast lowered its head, its dark silver eyes meeting Lu Qingyun's from afar.

Surprise flashed and vanished.

What remained was disdain and indifference that went into the bone marrow.

As if looking at a slightly stronger ant.

"Heh."

Lu Qingyun chuckled; far from having any fear, a fierce fire of excitement ignited in his eyes.

Looking down on me?

You… what qualifications do you have!!

"Hum—!"

With a thought, the Blood Red Vines that had retracted into his body surged out again, but this time they did not spread out; instead, they wrapped around his body in layers, transforming into a suit of blood-red, incredibly ferocious blood-colored scale armor!

The scale armor covered his entire body, revealing only a pair of eyes burning with Battle Intent.

The armor formed by the Dharma Aspect Realm Blood Red Vine had defensive power sufficient to withstand any Dharma Aspect Realm bombardment!

"Die!"

With a low shout, Lu Qingyun's figure suddenly disappeared from where he stood!

A streak of blood-colored light cut through the sky, carrying a fierce momentum of indomitable determination, crashing straight toward the thousand-zhang Black Flame Giant Beast!

"Boom—!!!"

The blood-colored figure and the black giant beast collided fiercely!

In an instant, the sky collapsed and the earth split!

The terrifying shockwave swept out in all directions like a tsunami!

The earth instantly collapsed by hundreds of zhang, the rock layers turning into powder!

Dust filled the sky, obscuring everyone's vision!

The intense light was blinding, the roaring deafening.

Master Ming and the others widened their eyes, retreating continuously, their eyes full of shock.

"Too terrifying… a battle of this level has already far surpassed the Dharma Aspect Realm…"

Several people held their breath, staring fixedly at the center of the smoke and dust.

One second, two seconds, three seconds…

The smoke and dust gradually dissipated.

In the center of the battlefield, the Black Flame Giant Beast stood quietly, the black flames still burning fiercely around its body.

But that blood-colored figure had disappeared.

On the ground, only a few shattered fragments of blood-colored vine armor remained, lying quietly in the scorched earth.

Dead silence.

Deathly silence.
