118: Chapter 118: Is it about numbers or size?
"Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!!"
A series of dense, explosive sounds rang out.
Under the crushing pressure of the Splendid Mountains and Rivers, those ferocious Tier 4 flying dragons exploded in mid-air, turning into mists of blood before they could even let out a scream.
Instant kill!
"Roar——!!"
The ground shook violently.
Amidst the rolling dust and smoke, hundreds of giant beasts, each a hundred meters tall, charged out. They possessed massive sickle-like front pincers and were covered in thick bone plates; with every step they took, the earth would crack open.
Zerg ground tanks — Ultralisks!
"Defense comparable to A-grade alloy?"
Lin Fan's figure flashed, appearing atop an Ultralisk's head.
Facing those massive front pincers capable of shearing through an aircraft carrier's deck, Lin Fan simply reached out a hand and gave a gentle squeeze.
"Snap!!"
A crisp snapping sound rang out.
That incredibly hard front pincer was snapped off directly in Lin Fan's hand!
"Too brittle, poor rating."
Lin Fan shook his head and threw a backhand punch.
"Boom——!!!"
Physical power erupted.
The force of his punch turned into a visible shockwave, sweeping out in a fan shape. The tens of thousands of charging Ultralisks ahead were shattered into dust across the sky under this terrifying punch!
This is the physical body of an Earth Sovereign! A humanoid Tyrannosaurus!
"Hiss! Hiss!!"
Countless Tier 3 Hydralisks burrowed out from underground, attempting a sneak attack.
"Scram!"
Lin Fan stomped mid-air.
"Crack!"
The void shattered, and a terrifying shockwave was transmitted directly into the ground. The army of Hydralisks within a ten-mile radius was shaken into pulp.
"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh——"
In mid-air, dark green toxic mist surged.
Countless jellyfish-like Corruptors spewed potent venom; this toxic mist could not only corrode physical bodies but also paralyze nerves and even enhance the Zerg's combat power.
Even more disgusting was that these Corruptors were actually devouring and merging with each other in mid-air, transforming into massive Brood Lords with wingspans of several dozen meters!
"Pfft! Pfft! Pfft!"
The Brood Lords opened their abdomens, releasing countless tiny parasites that swarmed toward Lin Fan, attempting to burrow into his body.
"Playing Resident Evil, are we?"
Lin Fan sneered and flicked his finger.
"Supernatural Ability — — Firefly Streamlight!!"
Swish! Swish! Swish!
Countless sparks flew from his fingertips. At first, they were just tiny sparks, but in the blink of an eye, they swelled against the wind, turning into a towering sea of fire!
That was the True Yang Fire containing the true intent of the Great Sun!
"Squeak! Squeak! Squeak!!"
Those parasites and Brood Lords let out shrill screams in the sea of fire. The high temperature evaporated the toxic mist and burned them to ashes.
Sweeping through everything!
Whether it was flying in the sky or running on the ground, in front of Lin Fan, everything was killed in one move!
Finally.
Lin Fan stopped in his tracks.
Before him appeared a colossal entity.
It was a massive mountain of flesh covering tens of thousands of meters — the Zerg Hive!
It was a beating heart, covered in hideous barbs, thick blood vessels, and disgusting tumors. With every beat, it was crazily devouring the surrounding Origin Qi.
"Is this the end?"
Lin Fan looked at the Hive before him, and the great xia dragon sparrow was unsheathed.
Just as he prepared to take action and destroy this disgusting structure.
"Hum——!!"
The Hive vibrated violently, and three heart-stopping auras shot into the sky.
"Vile human! How dare you disturb our Empress's slumber!!"
Three piercing voices overlapped.
Above the Hive, three giant Zerg Queens flew out. Their lower bodies were bloated insect torsos, while their upper bodies possessed torsos similar to human females; their faces were hideous and ugly, with scarlet compound eyes, exuding the terrifying aura of a half-step Earth Sovereign!
These were the true controllers of the Zerg — Zerg Queens!
"Oh? Finally willing to come out?"
Lin Fan looked at these three ugly Zerg Queens with a look of contempt.
"Looking this ugly and still coming out to scare people, that's where you're in the wrong."
"You're courting death!!"
The three Zerg Queens were furious, shrieking in unison as their mental power turned into a storm, sweeping toward Lin Fan.
"Comparing numbers? Or comparing size?"
Lin Fan grinned and formed seals with his hands.
"Dharma Image — — Descent of Gods and Ghosts!!"
Rumbling——!!
The heaven and earth changed color.
A terrifying Dharma Image, fully a thousand meters tall, rose from the ground behind Lin Fan!
That Dharma Image had its head touching the blue sky, feet stepping on mountains and rivers, surrounded by the sun, moon, and stars, exuding the aura of an emperor suppressing eternity. This was the first time Lin Fan had unleashed his natal Dharma Image without reservation since breaking through to the Earth Sovereign realm!
In front of that thousand-meter-tall Dharma Image, those three previously arrogant Zerg Queens became insignificant.
"This... what is this?!"
The three Zerg Queens looked up in terror, their scarlet compound eyes filled with shock.
"Get down for me!!"
Lin Fan didn't give them a chance to react at all, his mind moving.
The thousand-meter Dharma Image raised its giant palm and slammed it down fiercely.
"Boom——!!"
This palm strike sealed the space and blocked out the sky.
"No!!"
The three Zerg Queens let out desperate screams, wanting to flee, only to find the surrounding space had already solidified.
Just as that sky-covering giant palm was about to smash them into pulp.
"Hum!!"
Deep within the Hive below, a more terrifying power suddenly erupted.
That power turned into an invisible mental giant hand, forcibly holding up Lin Fan's Dharma Image's giant palm!
"Bang!!"
The two forces collided, and the air waves swept in all directions. The surrounding creep was shattered, revealing the scorched earth beneath.
Although it saved the three Zerg Queens, the backlash force also caused the Hive to crack open a huge gash.
"Trash, stand down."
An arrogant female voice came from the crack in the Hive.
Immediately following.
A figure rose into the air.
Seeing this figure, Lin Fan's gaze narrowed slightly.
It was a "woman".
She possessed the perfect figure of a human female, her skin appearing an eerie pale. But behind her grew a pair of giant bone wings. A head of long hair made up of countless wriggling tentacles.
Bewitching, deadly, hideous.
She was the absolute ruler of the Zerg, the true — Queen of Blades!
"Human."
The Queen of Blades hovered in mid-air, those eyes emitting a faint glow staring at Lin Fan, filled with resentment, "I remember your aura... it was you who ruined my plans in the Ten Thousand Snakes Grotto."
"Allow me to introduce myself."
She spread her bone wings, unleashing her aura, "My name is Kerrigan, the ruler of the Swarm!"
"Kerrigan?"
Lin Fan retracted his Dharma Image and looked her over with interest, "The name is quite fancy, too bad you're a hybrid."
"Sharp-tongued!"
Kerrigan's eyes turned cold; without any nonsense, she raised her hand and pointed a finger.
"Psionic — — Psionic Storm!!"
Boom!!
A visible purple storm exploded in Lin Fan's mind. This was an attack directed straight at the soul, enough to obliterate the consciousness of an Earth Sovereign!
However.
"Is that it?"
Lin Fan stood in place, not moving a single bit.
With the system's blessing, his Comprehension Ability and soul strength had long since reached over level 400, and with the protection of the ancestral dragon seal, his sea of consciousness was as solid as a fortress!
"Inhale——"
Lin Fan opened his mouth and inhaled.
That Psionic Storm, capable of shattering souls, was actually swallowed directly into his stomach!
"The taste is a bit bland, remember to add some cumin next time."
Lin Fan smacked his lips, looking disgusted.
"What?!"
Kerrigan was shocked.
Swallowing a Psionic Storm?! Is this human's soul made of iron?!
"Since mental attacks are ineffective, then... die!!"
Kerrigan was enraged by embarrassment and vanished.
The next second, she appeared behind Lin Fan, the bone wings on her back turning into two peerless blades, slashing down fiercely with terrifying sword intent!
"Clang!!"
Sparks flew everywhere.
An ancient long saber blocked her bone wings.
great xia dragon sparrow!
"Playing with blades? I'm your ancestor!"
Lin Fan sneered and flicked his wrist.
"Break for me!!"
"Snap!!"
The great xia dragon sparrow erupted with brilliant cyan light; that was the power of a Sacred Artifact capable of severing rules!
In Kerrigan's terrified gaze, her indestructible bone wings were actually forcibly severed by a section!
"Ah——!!"
Kerrigan screamed and flew backward, and even the Hive below was split by the dissipated blade qi, leaving a bottomless crack.
"Damn human!!"
Kerrigan's hair was disheveled, her eyes full of madness, "This is what you forced me to do!!"
She slapped her chest and spat out a mouthful of golden essence blood.
"shennong cauldron — — Appear!!"
Hum——!!!
An ancient, heavy bronze cauldron, exuding a rich medicinal fragrance and the aura of life, flew out from deep within the Hive and hovered above Kerrigan's head.
On that cauldron, mountains, rivers, plants, and trees were engraved, exuding the vast holy might of the human race!
