100: Is Lin Du going to be cheated on?

Ghost Blade Stabbing God Technique: Increases the player's Speed and Strength by 200%, turning them into a phantom that roams the battlefield, capable of slaying even gods.

The moment the Ghost Blade Stabbing God Technique was activated, a surge of savage power rushed through Lin Du's limbs and bones like a landslide and a tsunami... Lin Du's physical functions instantly soared!

Whoosh—

Under normal circumstances, it would be difficult for Lin Du's speed to dodge all the tentacles.

But after activating the skill, the situation instantly changed!

The instant all the tentacles approached his body, Lin Du's feet moved as if shrinking the ground into an inch, instantly flashing to a position directly above all the tentacles.

“Break!”

Swish—

The ghost-slaying saber was overwhelmingly mighty, savagely slashing toward the nearest tentacle!

The Slit-Mouth Ghost Bride paled in shock.

“Such speed!”

She had originally been prepared for a one-hit kill, never expecting that under these circumstances, her opponent could still escape the encirclement of tentacles.

The speed was simply too fast; the Slit-Mouth Ghost Bride didn't have time to dodge... Pfft—

The ghost-slaying saber sliced past, effortlessly cutting off a tentacle.

The blood, mixed with filth, streamed from the wound...“Ah!” the Slit-Mouth Ghost Bride screamed in pain.

“What a sharp saber!”

“Human, I will kill you!”

The Slit-Mouth Ghost Bride suddenly opened her mouth.

This time, her mouth didn't split open, but instead rapidly expanded, transforming into a terrifying Taotie's Maw in the blink of an eye.

“Death Devour!”

Whoosh—

A terrifying suction force appeared!

Countless nearby gravel and dust rushed into the Taotie's Maw. Under the influence of the suction, the direction of air flow suddenly changed... Lin Du stood rooted to the spot, clearly feeling an overwhelmingly powerful force attempting to drag his body into the Taotie's Maw.

Lin Du planted his feet, his body anchored to the ground like a nail!

While releasing Death Devour, the ten vertical tentacles on the Slit-Mouth Ghost Bride's chest were also busy.

These tentacles were completely unaffected by Death Devour. They wriggled like venomous snakes, stabbing toward Lin Du's body again... Lin Du tried to move, but within the Death Devour zone, moving in the opposite direction would slow his speed by more than half.

At this speed, it would be difficult to dodge all the tentacle attacks!

“If you won't let me dodge in the opposite direction, then I'll just go along with you.”

“Here I come!”

A cruel smile curled up the corner of Lin Du's mouth.

He released all resistance, allowing the suction force to carry his body toward the Taotie's Maw.

When he was still three or four meters away from the Taotie's Maw, all the power in Lin Du's body erupted, and his traveling speed suddenly increased by a large margin!

Lin Du's speed was already fast, but with the added boost from the Taotie's Maw's suction, his shadow was barely visible in mid-air... Running with the wind, his speed was ridiculously fast!

“Damn it!”

A bad premonition arose in the Slit-Mouth Ghost Bride's heart, and a sense of mortal danger suddenly enveloped her mind.

“Run!!”

The Slit-Mouth Ghost Bride immediately stopped Death Devour, while rapidly dodging to the side.

“Trying to run now? It's too late!” Lin Du's ghostly voice sounded right next to the Slit-Mouth Ghost Bride's ear.

The Slit-Mouth Ghost Bride was struck with terror!

She couldn't react in time, suddenly feeling a chill on her neck... Pfft—

The ghost-slaying saber was stained with blood, increasing damage dealt by +100%!

The Slit-Mouth Ghost Bride's fragile little body simply couldn't withstand this fatal blow!

It was over.

Killed Slit-Mouth Ghost Bride lv.36, gained Experience +351,655, lifespan value +176 days

heart of the goddess of luck triggered, rewards doubled!

Buzz—

A flash of golden light swept over Lin Du. With the double experience bonus, his level immediately reached 50% of Level 37.

Clang—

Two deep purple chests dropped at his feet... Supreme Secret Realm Entrance.

Nearly two hours had passed, and the players were growing impatient.

More and more major powers gathered around. Whether Night Ember was dead or alive, all the major forces wanted to witness it for themselves... Roar—

Roar—

While the players waited expectantly, several deafening lion roars suddenly came from the distant horizon.

The lion roars were majestic and overbearing, echoing through the sky like rolling thunder, scattering the clouds above... This overwhelming roar forced many low-level players to cover their ears.

If the sound came a few more times, the souls of these low-level players might even be shattered...“Which beast is roaring? You scared the hell out of me!”

“If you step out now, I'll beat you to death!”

Under the furious gaze of countless players, a golden speck of light sped in from the horizon!

Many players originally had curses ready on their lips, but upon seeing the sight within the golden speck, all the players obediently shut their mouths.

The few players who had just cursed out loud instantly turned pale with fright!

Among them was even a high-ranking figure from a major power listed on the Yunlong City power rankings... Inside the golden speck was a majestic lion!

The lion was the size of a mountain, its entire body a noble dark gold, and nine massive heads grew from its neck.

On the lion's massive body, one could clearly see crisscrossing, hideous scars running every which way.

These scars didn't diminish its beauty; instead, they added an aura of extreme ferocity: overbearing, tyrannical, vicious, murderous, bloodthirsty, and greedy... This lion was none other than the powerful mythical creature—the Nine-Headed Lion!

The Nine-Headed Lion roared toward the sky, its overbearing aura sweeping across the entire area.

Standing proudly on the Nine-Headed Lion's back was a square-faced man.

The man looked about forty years old, his gaze as cold and sharp as lightning, exuding the unique aura of a superior being with every movement... The man and the lion together seemed like the rulers of this land, making the world pale in comparison!

“Holy crap! Why is Death Waltz here in Yunlong City? He couldn't also be here to watch Night Ember challenge the Supreme Secret Realm, could he?”

“Impossible! That big shot is busy with a thousand things a day; how could he pay attention to a minor figure like Night Ember!”

“Busy with a thousand things my ass!”

“Among the Eight Major Cities of the Divine Dragon Country, Black Phoenix City is the most peaceful every day. Death Waltz unified Black Phoenix City ages ago; what business does he have now!”

“God is truly unfair! He gathered all the good things onto Death Waltz.”

“I truly envy the life of that big shot...”

The praise around him was endless, but Death Waltz's cold face showed no expression.

Death Waltz had long since grown tired of this kind of admiration and praise.

He leaped down from the back of the Nine-Headed Lion and walked step by step toward a certain direction.

The players actively made way. Death Waltz's gaze cut through the crowd, landing on a stunning figure at the edge of the throng, a beautiful silhouette like an exiled immortal in white robes.

“Ember Eyes, long time no see!”
