102: Chapter 102 Fifth-Rank Martial Venerable? You think you're so tough?

"Human bug."

Commander Gu Sha gritted out every word.

"You dare to flatten my Mad Demon Fortress, kill my adjutants, and slaughter my men! Today, I will peel the skin off all five hundred of you while you're still alive and turn you into sky-lanterns to accompany them in death!"

As soon as the words fell, a sound of grinding bones came from within Commander Gu Sha's body.

Blood energy surged out from within his body, intertwining and tangling in mid-air.

In the blink of an eye, it condensed into a set of bone armor on his body surface.

The surface of the bone armor was covered in barbs, with blood-red light flowing over it.

This was a unique talent of the Mad Demon Tribe. Coupled with his 5th-Grade Martial Venerable cultivation, this bone armor was outrageously hard.

Looking across the entire Northern Territory, no one at the same rank could break his defense.

Commander Gu Sha shook his arms, his fierce aura soaring to the heavens, waiting to see the human below react in terror.

The result?

Li Zhengyang didn't even look up.

He was holding a tactical watch in his left hand and carrying the dragon spear in his right, busy squatting on the ground.

Lying at his feet were the 7th-Grade Demon Men he had just taken down—the very guards closest to Commander Gu Sha.

He flicked his spear into a skull, and a blood-stained demon core flew out.

"What are you yelling about? In such a rush to reincarnate?"

Lei Hu, watching from behind, felt his eyelids twitch wildly.

That's a 5th-Grade Martial Venerable!

Can't you show a little respect, Old Man, and just look up?

Commander Gu Sha in mid-air was completely stunned.

Having dominated the Northern Territory for so many years, he had killed at least eight thousand, if not ten thousand, human martial artists.

Who didn't have weak knees and beg for mercy when they saw him?

This kid, right in front of him, didn't even bother to say a word, focusing intently on digging out demon cores?

A supreme humiliation!

"You don't know what's good for you! You're courting death!"

Commander Gu Sha went completely Berserk, his figure flashing and leaving behind a blood-colored afterimage.

Without even taking out a weapon, one bone claw went straight for Li Zhengyang's head.

He wanted to crush this ignorant human's brains out with a single claw.

"Director, watch out!" Assistant Chen Feng roared, raising his blade to charge forward.

Li Zhengyang just happened to collect the last demon core.

He straightened his waist and brushed the dust off his hands.

"Really in such a rush to die."

He tapped the ground lightly.

"Soaring Dragon Sky-Stepping Footwork."

The black afterimage dissipated abruptly in place.

Commander Gu Sha's earth-shattering claw slammed into the spot where Li Zhengyang had just been standing.

Boom!

The ground was clawed into a pit more than ten meters deep, with rubble flying everywhere.

Having missed, Commander Gu Sha stared blankly at the bottom of the pit.

Where was he?

Even his perception hadn't captured the trajectory of the opponent's movement!

Just then, Commander Gu Sha felt a faint fluctuation of airflow above his head.

He looked up abruptly.

Li Zhengyang appeared directly above Commander Gu Sha, his right foot landing firmly on his face.

"Get down!"

Li Zhengyang, leveraging the ten-thousand-jun force of the descent, tensed the muscles in his right leg.

"Indestructible Golden Body, activate!"

"Berserk, activate!"

Golden light exploded beneath his skin, and the violent power of the Tyrannosaurus Bone surged down along his spine, pouring entirely into this kick.

Crack!

A cracking sound echoed across the battlefield.

Commander Gu Sha's bone armor, which claimed to have absolute defense among those of the same rank, didn't even last half a second.

Cracks formed at the point of contact on his head and spread throughout his entire body.

"Bang!"

The indestructible bone armor shattered instantly into a sky full of debris.

Commander Gu Sha's eyes rolled back, and his brain lost all ability to think in an instant.

He was kicked deep into the ground by Li Zhengyang's kick.

Rumble!

The ground within a hundred-meter radius collapsed violently.

The entire scene was deathly silent.

Five hundred veteran soldiers of the Pojun Division were collectively petrified.

Zhao Yi held his blade, his jaw dropped to the ground.

The thunderstorm warblade in Lei Hu's hand dropped to the ground; he hurriedly bent down to pick it up and rubbed his eyes vigorously.

That motherf*cker was a 5th-Grade Martial Venerable! An overlord Demon Man, the boss of the Mad Demon Fortress!

Just like that, he was kicked into the ground by the Director?

Li Zhengyang landed steadily back on the ground, shook his leg, and didn't even pant heavily.

He held his long spear, looking down into the deep pit.

"5th-Grade Martial Venerable Commander Gu Sha?"

"I thought you were something."

"Yelling so loudly, you think you're hot stuff?"

At the bottom of the pit.

Commander Gu Sha lay sprawled in the pile of rubble, his brain filled with buzzing tinnitus, his vision a sea of blood-red.

More than sixty percent of the bones in his body were broken, and not even a complete piece of the bone armor could be found now.

He struggled to support himself on the ground with his hands, trying to crawl up, but his hands went weak and he fell back down.

His face was filled with an expression of having seen a ghost.

How is this possible!

He was a 5th-Grade Martial Venerable! The Mad Demon Tribe was born with powerful physiques, invincible in body among those of the same rank.

The opponent didn't even use a weapon, didn't even release a martial skill, and with just one kick, shattered his defense?

Even if he was a genius, cross-rank challenges couldn't be this outrageous!

Commander Gu Sha refused to believe it.

He endured the excruciating pain, closed his eyes, and released all his 5th-Grade Martial Venerable perception to thoroughly investigate Li Zhengyang's background.

The intelligence clearly stated that when this kid killed Xue You in the East City, he had just advanced to a 1st-Grade Martial Venerable!

But, as soon as his perception spread over.

Commander Gu Sha's body gave a violent jolt.

This is not a 1st-Grade Martial Venerable.

This motherf*cker is a mid-stage Martial Venerable!

4th-Grade Martial Venerable!

And that restrained, domineering aura was not a single bit weaker than his own 5th-Grade Martial Venerable aura!
