212: Chapter 212 The Unkillable Lu Chen, the Beginning of Despair!

Above the Jinbao Pavilion headquarters, inside the primordial world forcibly created by the [Infinite Beast Domain], the battle had spiraled completely out of control.

Jin Nihuang, the three Bone King-level assassins, and the three other Tier-9 honorary Elders of Jinbao Pavilion—seven Tier-9 legendary powerhouses in total—no longer felt any sense of ease or arrogance in their hearts.

They knew clearly that in this bizarre beast Domain dominated by Lu Chen, their retreat was cut off.

The only path to survival was to take down this flame dragon coiling in the firmament, its pressure as heavy as a prison!

"Kill! Attack with everything you have! Cut down Lu Chen first!"

Bone King Jin Hai's voice was cold as he issued the most correct command.

However, reality was cruelly harsh.

Lu Chen's army of millions of beast pets, under the perfect environmental evolution and enhancement of the [Infinite Beast Domain], displayed tactical coordination and destructive combat capabilities that made one's scalp tingle.

The white torrent formed by the Ice-Burst Magic-Horned Ants was like a tidal wave of death; wherever it passed, the elite Haiying assassins and the killing formations they had laid were instantly frozen and shattered.

The Soul-Devouring Abyss Rats transformed into reapers in the shadows, focusing on the Soul, causing the experts' minds to waver.

The poison mist sprayed by the Explosive Hidden Poison Abyss Spiders and the rain of fire poured down by the Crimson Flame King Falcon intertwined into a curtain of death.

Great Green, the Void-Eye White Tiger, and other main pets were like kings on the battlefield, each strike carrying powerful skills, crushing any enemy that dared to approach.

The stealth and escape techniques that the Jinbao Pavilion experts and Haiying assassins were so proud of had nowhere to hide under the dual suppression of the [Eye of the Ringed Heavens] and the beast Domain environment. They could only be like living targets, submerged and torn apart by the violent beast tide, their screams rising one after another.

"Ignore those beasts! Everyone, concentrate your firepower! Target Lu Chen!"

Jin Nihuang shrieked, her beautiful face twisted.

The seven Tier-9 experts held nothing back, pushing their space-tearing abilities to the limit. Various ultimate skills and legendary items transformed into terrifying torrents that tore through the sky and shattered the earth, raining down upon the flame dragon high in the firmament!

Rumble!

The sound of the collisions was deafening, as if the entire Primordial Beast Domain was trembling.

Lu Chen's dragon eyes were cold as he withstood the attacks with Prarie-Fire Dragon Breath, while simultaneously casting Forbidden Spell.

[Thunder Punishment World Destroyer] summoned world-ending thunder, and [Holy Spear: Oath of the End] condensed a wedge of Holy Light that pierced the Void Realm, clashing wildly with the attacks of the seven experts!

Finally, under the joint onslaught of the seven Tier-9 experts who ignored all consumption, the long health bar above Lu Chen's head was indeed instantly emptied, turning into a glaring "0"!

But...

Lu Chen did not fall, dissipate, or trigger any resurrection mechanism as expected; the Domain remained.

The empty-blooded flame dragon still stood proudly in the firmament, the coldness and killing intent in its dragon eyes not diminished in the slightest, and the Prarie-Fire Dragon Breath burning around its body was even more intense!

It was as if the attack that should have been enough to insta-kill any Tier-9 expert was merely a breeze brushing over a mountain peak!

"What is going on? Why isn't he dead?"

Jin Nihuang was almost going crazy, her voice sharp enough to pierce the clouds: "His health bar is empty! It's empty!"

Jinbao Pavilion's Tier-9 honorary Elder, Cao Renfu, turned pale and said with a trembling voice: "Could it be... that he has some kind of legendary item that locks his health?"

"It's not an item!"

Red Bone immediately denied it, her alluring face full of solemnity: "Health-locking items would at least preserve '1' point of health; they would never show as 0! And the effect couldn't possibly be this lasting. Lu Chen must still be hiding a trump card we don't know about!"

Bai Hai's dead, silent eyes were locked onto Lu Chen, his voice hoarse: "It's a skill! There is an additional skill effect on him that we cannot comprehend! Quick! Use Insight on him!"

Another of Jinbao Pavilion's honorary Elders, Cao Renqi, hurriedly cast a Tier-9 Insight, but when the light fell on Lu Chen, it was like a clay ox entering the sea, with only question marks fed back.

"It's useless! Our Insight is ineffective!"

Jin Nihuang had no choice but to take out an ancient-looking glazed mirror with seven gemstones embedded in its edges from her backpack space—this was one of Jinbao Pavilion's ultimate treasures, the [All-Encompassing Truth Mirror]!

She activated the treasure mirror with all her might.

The mirror's surface shone brilliantly, and a hazy beam of light shone onto Lu Chen. It struggled to penetrate layer after layer of obstruction, finally barely reflecting the nine faint chains of life intertwined between Lu Chen and the nine beast pets in the distance, along with the simple information attached to them.

"It's a Forbidden Spell! A Beast Tamer's exclusive Forbidden Spell, [Nine Beasts into One]!"

Jin Nihuang's face was filled with disbelief: "He and those nine beast pets are one entity, sharing life! We need to kill him and those nine beasts he's connected to simultaneously to truly kill him once!"

"What? Lu Chen can still learn Beast Tamer skills, and a Forbidden Spell at that? Was he hiding his strength all along?"

Jinbao Pavilion's Tier-9 honorary Elder, Jin Ruxiang, was horrified: "How could he be so Heaven-Defying?!"

"This is not the time for exclamations!"

Bone King Jin Hai made a swift decision, his voice chilling: "Madam Jin and I will stay behind to pin down the empty-blooded Lu Chen! The other five, immediately lead the remaining personnel and, at all costs, kill those nine beast pets as fast as possible!"

Once the order was given, the five Tier-9 experts immediately turned their targets, like five falling meteors, carrying monstrous killing intent as they rushed toward Great Green and the other nine beast pets who were rampaging through the beast tide.

However, seeing them charging aggressively toward his beast pets, a flicker of cold mockery and pity flashed within Lu Chen's huge dragon eyes, not a trace of panic.

"Want to surround and kill my partners?"

Lu Chen sneered in his heart: "Then I will let you frogs in a well experience for yourselves what true despair is!"

Just before the attacks of the five Tier-9 experts were about to land, the flame dragon that Lu Chen had transformed into suddenly raised its head and emitted a dragon roar that shook the entire Beast Domain!

[Forbidden Spell — Ten Thousand Beasts Celestial Stars]!

Hum!

Every sound in the world seemed to have been stripped away.

The next second, with Lu Chen as the center, a destructive energy beyond description exploded like a supernova, spreading violently!

It covered every corner of the entire [Infinite Beast Domain]!

Above the firmament, it was as if ten thousand stars were falling simultaneously; that was the destructive light materialized after the temporary Fusion of millions of beast pets!

On the earth, the phantom of the primordial era seethed, and ten thousand beasts roared, contributing their own power!

Boom!

The magnificent and deadly light wave swept through everything!

Under the indiscriminate bombardment of this map-wide SSS-rank legendary Forbidden Spell, those Jinbao Pavilion elites and Haiying elite assassins who were still struggling against the beast tide couldn't even let out a scream before they were instantly vaporized in the extreme light and heat, turning into fly ash!

The light dissipated.

The originally noisy and chaotic battlefield suddenly became incomparably clean.

Except for the seven Tier-9 experts who had used their Tier-9 space-tearing abilities to open spatial barriers and protect themselves, all combat power below Tier-9 brought by Jinbao Pavilion and the Haiying Guild... were completely wiped out, not a single one left!

Silence.

A deathly silence.

Jin Nihuang stared blankly at the empty battlefield before her, as if unable to comprehend what had happened.

The mid-to-high-level elites her Jinbao Pavilion had accumulated over countless years, the core Foundation she relied on to maintain her power... were just... gone?

"Ah—! Lu Chen! I will never coexist with you!!!"

Bone-deep heartache and crazy spite made her emit a blood-curdling howl.

The three Bone King-level assassins also had their eyes split with rage, their bodies trembling slightly from extreme anger.

For this encirclement mission, the Haiying Guild had mobilized more than two-thirds of their elite assassins; this was the Foundation for the guild's standing in the world!

Now, it had all been lost in a single day!

And at this moment, Lu Chen clearly felt that within the "Beast Domain Reincarnation" effect of the [Infinite Beast Domain], the number of "Beast Souls" had instantly skyrocketed, enough for his nine main beast pets to resurrect thousands upon thousands of times!

From now on, his nine main beast pets were truly unkillable!

And as long as the nine main beast pets were unkillable, Lu Chen, who shared life with them through [Nine Beasts into One], was naturally also in an unkillable state!

As long as he was unkillable, this [Infinite Beast Domain] would exist forever, keeping Jin Nihuang and the other seven tightly trapped in this primordial cage.

"Now..."

Lu Chen's cold dragon eyes swept over the seven Tier-9 experts below whose faces were twisted with anger, and that calm voice, yet containing endless killing intent, resounded in the depths of their Souls like a final judgment.

"...It's your turn to experience what true despair is."

The feast of revenge had only just begun.

He would not stop until he had bloodily slaughtered Jin Nihuang right here and repaid the blood debt owed to Sister Linglong!
