57: Chapter 57: Critical Hit 160x, Sixth Level of Core Formation!

The visual impact and psychological shock brought about by this sudden turn of events were a hundred times more intense than when Lin Feng had instantly killed those two Protectors just moments ago.

If one could still rationalize the previous killing of the Protectors by saying, "Lord Lin is powerful and decisive in his killing,"

then now, slaughtering dozens of captives who had already surrendered and were completely powerless to resist, cutting them down like chopping melons and vegetables in front of all his colleagues...

this was no longer "decisiveness." This was "brutality"! This was "devilishness"!

"Lin... Lin Feng..."

Chu Mengxi's voice trembled. She looked at the man standing amidst a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood, his expression so indifferent as if nothing had happened. For the first time, a trace of imperceptible fear flickered in her cold Phoenix eyes.

She realized that she had seemingly never truly understood this man.

His strength and his mystery were like a bottomless mist.

And at this moment, hidden within this mist seemed to be a heart-palpitating, purely murderous will that made no distinction between good and evil.

"Brother Lin... isn't doing this a bit... too much?"

Even Zhao Tie, who had always blindly worshipped Lin Feng, couldn't help but mutter softly.

"Shut up!"

Li Rui let out a low shout, his eyes looking fanatically at Lin Feng's back. "What do you know! This is called attacking the heart! Brother Lin must have a deep meaning for doing this! He is deliberately using slaughter to suppress the devils! Using this method to disrupt the enemy's state of mind! Brilliant! Absolutely brilliant!"

Everyone: "..."

This flattery was simply fresh and refined; even the person involved, Lin Feng, was stunned for a moment after hearing it.

Good heavens.

Is he overthinking it?

Lin Feng shook his head slightly and silently summoned the System.

[Host: Lin Feng]

[Realm: Half-step Danyuan Realm]

[Cultivation Technique: Nine Yang Infinite Art (Beginner)]

[Martial Skill: Three Blades of Avici (Beginner)]

[Movement Technique: Snow-Treading Ghost Step (Beginner)]

[critical hit multiplier: 160x]

[critical hit points: 557350]

"550,000 critical hit points..."

The corners of Lin Feng's mouth curled into a satisfied smile that only he could understand.

"It's about... enough."

Just at this moment, on the other side of the battlefield, the situation underwent an astonishing change.

Perhaps stimulated by the bloody scene on Lin Feng's side, that mysterious Blood-Robed Holy Envoy finally lost all patience.

"Ling Xiaotian! Don't waste any more time with him! Use that technique!"

The Blood-Robed Holy Envoy let out a sharp roar.

"But..."

A trace of hesitation flashed across Ling Xiaotian's face. Once that technique was used, although he could obtain unparalleled power for a short time, he would inevitably pay a heavy price afterward.

"There are no 'buts'!"

The Blood-Robed Holy Envoy shouted sternly, "That brat has already cut off all our escape routes! If we cannot eliminate this old fogey and that brat together today, none of us will be able to leave alive!"

These words finally made Ling Xiaotian harden his heart.

"Fine!"

He roared, holding nothing back. The Danyuan in his Dantian burned madly, and a blood-colored Evil Qi, several times more powerful than before, erupted from his body!

"Blood Demon Disintegration Technique!"

His body began to expand and twist in an extremely eerie way. Countless blood-colored devilish patterns appeared on his skin, his eyes turned crimson, and two hideous arms made of pure Evil Qi sprouted from behind him.

In the blink of an eye, he transformed from a dignified City Lord into a terrifying devilish creature, a zhang tall, with four arms and two heads, radiating monstrous Devilish Qi!

His strength was instantly and forcibly raised from the Peak of Danyuan Realm Level 7 to—Danyuan Realm Level 9!

The Blood-Robed Holy Envoy was not idle either.

He let out a strange, cackling laugh, and his entire body transformed into a pool of wriggling, ink-black liquid. As if it possessed a life of its own, it quickly covered the "Blood Demon Ling Xiaotian," forming a suit of black armor with flowing, eerie runes.

The power of the two, at this moment, fused together perfectly in an extremely evil way!

"Boom—!!!"

A terrifying pressure, far exceeding any moment before and capable of making the heavens and earth tremble, descended with a bang!

The strength of that pressure was so great that the "Four Symbols Heaven-Locking Formation," which was struggling to hold on, let out an overwhelmed "crack" sound, and dense cracks appeared on its golden wall of light!

"Not good! They have fused!"

Wu Yong's expression changed drastically; he hurriedly activated the command flag, doing his utmost to repair the Formation.

Facing this terrifying pressure head-on, the Silver-Rank Supervisor's old face, which had always been as calm as an ancient well, finally revealed a trace of solemnity for the first time.

"This is getting interesting."

The Supervisor slowly straightened his body. From within his seemingly thin and withered frame, a terrifying Aura suddenly erupted—steady as a deep pool and towering like a mountain—as if it could hold up the entire world.

"I would like to see just what kind of abilities you two neither-human-nor-ghost things possess!"

Danyuan Realm Level 9 Peak!

The Supervisor had finally revealed his true strength!

An ultimate showdown between the top powerhouses of Nanyan Prefecture was about to erupt!

Seeing this, Chu Mengxi and the others felt their hearts jump into their throats.

However, just at this moment, a lazy voice rang out again, completely inappropriately.

"Alright, alright, stop fighting."

Lin Feng stretched, looking like a big boy next door who had just woken up. With an impatient look on his face, he carried his Life-Slaying Blade and walked slowly, step by step, toward the battlefield of the three big shots.

"You've been fighting for so long, the food is already cold. It's my turn."

"..."

This earth-shattering action made everyone present—including Ling Xiaotian and the Holy Envoy who had entered "Berserk Mode," as well as the Supervisor who had unleashed his full Aura—subconsciously stop their movements and look at him with a gaze as if they were looking at an alien.

This brat...

What does he want to do?

He doesn't want to...

Instantly kill them with one strike?!

"Lin Feng, go back! This is not a place for you to interfere!"

The Supervisor reacted first and hurriedly shouted in a low voice.

In his view, although Lin Feng was a Prodigy, he was ultimately only at the Half-step Danyuan Realm.

Facing three Peak Danyuan Realm Level 9 powerhouses fighting each other, rushing in was no different from seeking death.

"Supervisor, you are getting old. It's better to just drink some tea on the side and watch."

Lin Feng waved his hand without even turning his head.

"I'll take this buffet all for myself."

[Ding! Consumed 500,000 critical hit points, Nine Yang Infinite Art critical hit successful!]

Nine Yang Infinite Art, Minor Achievement!

Nine Yang Infinite Art, Proficient!

Nine Yang Infinite Art, Major Achievement!

Boom!!!!

A terrifying, ultimate Yang and ultimate rigid Aura, indescribable in words and seemingly capable of burning through all the heavens and myriad worlds, erupted from Lin Feng as the center!

The sky, at this moment, seemed to have been burned through, leaving a hole!

The earth, at this moment, seemed to have turned into a molten purgatory!

Lin Feng's cultivation, like a true Dragon breaking free from all shackles, soared crazily upward at a speed that surpassed everyone's limits of understanding!

Half-step Danyuan... Bottleneck...

Break!

Danyuan Realm Level 1!

Danyuan Realm Level 2!

Danyuan Realm Level 3!

...

Danyuan Realm Level 6!

His entire body seemed to have transformed into a brilliant sun composed of pure, golden "Nine Yang Divine Fire"!

That pressure was overbearing, sacred, and filled with supreme majesty capable of purifying all evil!

Lin Feng slowly opened his eyes, and two golden divine rays shot out from them, actually scorching the space in front of him until it slightly distorted.

"Warm-up over."
