139: Transform into a human-dragon form! A force of 14,000 jin (approximately 6,500 kg) shatters the King of Thunder!

In the shadows of the corner, Li Han had curled himself into a ball of flesh. His teeth chattered so rapidly it seemed he might bite through his own tongue.

His crotch had long been soaked. The warmth had barely emerged before it turned cold, sticking clammily to his thighs. It was uncomfortable, but compared to the horror before his eyes, this stench of urine was absolutely nothing.

Through the eyes of his Saint-rank Sequence—Danger Perception, Lu Sheng, standing in the center of his vision, wasn't human at all.

He was a Black Singularity in a state of infinite collapse.

When Yang Chao died just now, that mass of blackness hadn't faded; instead, it grew denser, as if it wanted to swallow this villa, this hilltop, and even the sun in the sky in a single gulp.

“It's over... it's all over...”

Li Han buried his head in his knees, his ten fingers clawing desperately into the cracks of the floor. He didn't dare loosen his grip even as his fingernails flipped back and bled.

He couldn't be stopped.

A monster like this simply wasn't something a human could stand against.

In the center of the hall.

Lei Lie watched the steadily approaching Lu Sheng. That suffocating feeling of being locked onto by a top-tier predator made his hair stand on end, every nerve screaming at him to run.

But he couldn't retreat.

Behind him was the wall lined with famous wines, and beyond that was the cliff.

This was Shuangjian Peak, the territory he, Lei Lie, had conquered. If he were driven out today like a dog, he wouldn't even be worth as much as a stray in Hanwu City from now on.

“Kid!!”

Lei Lie gritted his teeth fiercely. The flesh on his face twitched frantically, and his eyes were so bloodshot they looked ready to burst.

“I admit you've got some tricks. Being able to kill Yang Chao, I'll give it to you, you're tough!”

“But...”

“You want to take down me, Lei Lie? Aren't you afraid of shattering your teeth?!”

“Boom—!!”

A muffled thunderclap exploded within Lei Lie's chest.

He no longer held back, violently forcing open the final valve within his body that restricted his power.

Violent spirit source surged like a bursting dam, instantly shredding the expensive Dark-purple Tang Suit he wore. Fragments of fabric fluttered about like butterflies.

His exposed upper body was knotted with muscle, and veins writhed frantically beneath his skin like purple earthworms.

“Sizzle—”

Countless thick arcs of lightning gushed from his pores, intertwining and wrapping around his body. Finally, they forcibly coalesced into a physical armor of blue-purple lightning.

The air was filled with a scorched smell—the scent of high-voltage ionized air.

“As a fellow Level 6 Spirit Source User, I have completed the Four-Organ Strengthening!”

Lei Lie's eyes were crimson, and his voice was raspy and booming, making the crystal chandelier overhead wobble precariously.

“Heart, lungs, liver, and spleen! The power boost from the Four-Organ Strengthening, combined with lightning stimulating cell activity...”

He suddenly clenched his fists. The air in his palms was instantly crushed, letting out a deafening sonic boom.

“Right now, my base strength is a full 8,000 jin!!”

8,000 jin!

What kind of concept was that?

8,000 jin was equal to 4 tons, which was equivalent to the load capacity of a small truck.

Imagine the immense strength required to lift or move such a weight.

In this region of Hanwu City, this was the absolute ceiling of power, a peak that Mortals could not hope to scale.

Feeling the violent power surging through his body, Lei Lie's suppressed confidence swelled once more.

On this Shuangjian Peak, he was the heavens, he was the only king!

“Die for me!!”

Lei Lie gave a hideous grin and pushed off with his feet.

The custom-made marble floor instantly shattered into powder. Shrouded in ten thousand thunderbolts, he charged like an out-of-control lightning chariot. Carrying an all-destroying Aura, he lunged toward the figure in white.

The lightning was blinding, and the wind from his fist howled, even dragging a scorched vacuum trail through the air.

Faced with this world-shattering strike.

Lu Sheng stopped in his tracks.

He stood where he was, his hands not even fully out of his pockets. His golden vertical pupils were as calm as a pool of stagnant water.

“8,000 jin?”

Lu Sheng tilted his head. There was no surprise in his tone, only a flat indifference that Lei Lie found insulting.

“Is this your limit?”

“If it is... then that's truly a pity.”

Before his voice had even faded.

Lu Sheng took a deep breath.

The heart within his chest suddenly contracted, letting out a dull boom like a war drum, pumping a surge of scalding golden blood to every part of his body.

“Human-Dragon Form—Open!!”

His will ignited.

“Roar—!!”

A vast, ancient, and tyrannical dragon roar abruptly exploded in the depths of everyone's Soul.

Lu Sheng's body suddenly shot up in height. His bones crackled, and his muscle fibers frantically reorganized and hardened.

The already damaged naval coat was completely torn apart, revealing the dense, dark-golden dragon scales beneath that shimmered with a cold metallic light.

On both sides of his forehead, skin and flesh tore as a pair of majestic dragon horns pierced through, pointing straight at the heavens.

A thick, powerful dragon tail whipped out behind him, making the air crackle. It even smashed a nearby solid wood table into splinters.

In his normal state, Lu Sheng's strength with Dragon Claw activated was 7,387 jin.

But in Human-Dragon Form... all attributes surged by twofold!

14,774 jin!!

This simply wasn't a contest on the same dimension.

It was a heavy tank against a child's tricycle.

Facing Lei Lie's aggressive and self-proclaimed invincible lightning punch, Lu Sheng, now in his half-human, half-dragon form, simply raised his right arm.

There were no fancy techniques, and no need to build up power.

It was just a plain and simple punch!

“I'll show you as well... what it means for absolute strength to break all laws.”

“Thud—!!!”

One large and one small fist collided violently in the air.

Time seemed to reach a bizarre standstill at that moment.

Then.

Pure physical strength and violent lightning elements completely exploded!

A visible white shockwave radiated outward in a circle from the two of them. Everywhere it passed, furniture, carpets, and decorations were all reduced to dust.

“Rumble—!!”

The villa's sturdy roof was blown straight off. The surrounding load-bearing walls collapsed like they were made of paper. Dust rose everywhere, blotting out the sky.

A stalemate?

It didn't exist.

In the mere instant of contact.

“Crack! Crack! Crack!”

A series of dense bone-shattering sounds rang out, particularly crisp and ear-piercing amidst the deafening roar.

The lightning armor Lei Lie was so proud of was as fragile as an eggshell before Lu Sheng's terrifying force of nearly fifteen thousand jin. It shattered inch by inch, turning into a shower of electrical sparks.

“Ah!!!”

Lei Lie let out a shrill scream, his eyes nearly bulging out of their sockets.

The bones in his right arm were vibrated into powder. The entire arm was twisted into a bizarre spiral, and white bone shards pierced through the flesh.

Immediately after, that overwhelming force surged through his arm and into his chest.

“Pfft—!”

Lei Lie sprayed a mouthful of blood mixed with organ fragments. He was sent flying like a kicked ragdoll.

“Bang!”

He smashed heavily into the wall of wine cabinets behind him, which were filled with expensive red wines.

Clatter—

Countless bottles of priceless red wine shattered on the floor. The dark red liquid mixed with Lei Lie's blood, snaking through the ruins in a shocking sight.

The dust slowly settled.

Lu Sheng's towering half-human, half-dragon figure stepped out from the ruins.

Although his clothes were now mere rags, his breathing was steady. There wasn't even a scratch on his dark-golden dragon scales.

He walked to the ruins and looked down at Lei Lie, who was sprawled in the wine like a dead dog.

The King of Thunder, who had been so overbearing just a moment ago, was now covered in blood, breathing more out than in.

Lu Sheng raised his large, scale-covered foot and stepped heavily on Lei Lie's intact left hand, slowly grinding down.

“Crack.”

The finger bones shattered.

“King of Thunder?”

Lu Sheng sneered, his golden vertical pupils full of mockery.

“That's it?”
