Very quickly, the smoke cleared, revealing the scene within. Everyone saw it clearly, and then their gazes froze.
The Moly Demon still maintained the posture of slamming its hand downward, but its massive, silver-white hand was now suspended in mid-air, firmly held by another large hand, this one with thick joints and bulging veins. It couldn’t press down even the slightest bit.
HUFF... HUFF... HUFF... HUFF...
It sounded like the heavy panting of a colossal beast. In the dissipating smoke, the fair-faced, handso young man with long hair had vanished. In his place stood a man nearly two-point-two ters tall, his body solid and knotted with muscles like steel bars. His aura was like a molten lava volcano. Every breath he exhaled was as thick and hot as boiling water. Beneath his light-red skin, scorching magma seed to flow. His long black hair danced wildly despite the lack of wind, revealing a twisted and demonic blood-red lotus eye pattern on his back.
HUFF... HUFF...
"I’ve been waiting a long ti... for an opponent as tough as you!"
Lu Yuan, in his second-stage extre transformation and now almost as tall as the Moly Demon, stared at the Moly Demon’s slightly astonished eyes. He suddenly smirked, revealing a mouthful of gleaming, sharp white teeth.
The next second...
CRACK!
The sound of air exploding rang out abruptly. Before anyone could see what Lu Yuan had done, the Moly Demon’s massive body was sent flying backward like a cannonball.
BOOM!
The ground beneath Lu Yuan’s feet exploded again, the shattered earth and stones almost crushed to powder. He shot forward like an arrow loosed from a bow, catching up to the Moly Demon and throwing another punch. The bright yellow Light of Vigor danced on his arm. The intangible True Intention of the White Crane hovered above his head, its cold talons extended. Lv. 3 [Absolute Focus] had long since been activated. His three tons of Basic Punch Strength, amplified by nurous skills, instantly erupted to over fifty tons of Fist Strength!
BOOM!
Accompanied by a muffled thud like a giant hamr striking the earth and the Moly Demon’s roar, the two fists—one large and one small, one silver-white and one light-red—collided fiercely.
THUD!
Lu Yuan was involuntarily forced back more than ten ters. The Moly Demon also retreated, but its steps were fewer than Lu Yuan’s.
"Good, good, good!" Lu Yuan’s eyes glowed, a deep joy appearing on his face, which was taut and stern due to his transformation and tense muscles. He pushed off from the ground and rushed forward again. Due to [Special Burst], Lu Yuan excelled at overwhelming opponents with sheer force. He had never t an opponent who could compete with him in strength. Could it be that his strength was now actually at a slight disadvantage? This unprecedented experience brought an inexplicable, exhilarating thrill!
Lu Yuan’s punches and kicks were relentless. The killing moves of the Crane Sect and Dragon Sect were displayed one after another through his hands. After his breakthrough in the three Body Tempering thods, [Ten Thousand Refining Crane Bone Strength] had naturally advanced to Lv. 5. It covered almost his entire body, concentrated in his fists and feet. Every move seed to carry the effect of a vivid, bewitching fla.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
The huge shopping mall pedestrian street had completely beco their battlefield. Everywhere their battle reached, the concrete ground buckled and rolled in large sections like waves; streetlights, neon signs, flowerbeds, sculptures... all shattered, collapsed, and exploded. The two of them were like two heavyweight, top-tier beasts locked in a ferocious struggle, fist t flesh with every blow. The sound of rending air, the howling of the wind, the Moly Demon’s roars, and Lu Yuan’s exhilarated breathing intertwined, and it seed as if the air and the earth itself were vibrating.
The watching New Bloods were completely dumbfounded. The smart ones had already guessed Lu Yuan’s identity. However, what they hadn’t expected was that this powerhouse, the one who topped the leaderboard with a cumulative score reaching a full six digits, possessed such formidable true strength! He was facing an A rank Moly Demon head-on! And also... he seed to be... Pure Martial!!!
So people even started a live broadcast of the battle on the universal chat channel via their mission wristwatches. The entire chat channel practically exploded. All sorts of comnts scrolled through the chat box like a waterfall. Those New Bloods who were still worried about the ’Survival’ mission and had long since distanced themselves from the Moly Demon’s vicinity were now frantically rushing over, as if they had gone mad. They also wanted to witness the final result of this battle with their own eyes.
Excellent! Truly excellent! Lu Yuan had lost count of how many tis he had exulted internally. At this mont, his blood surged powerfully through his veins, and it felt as if every cell in his body was on fire. On the Fighter profession panel, the Experience Points for his three Body Tempering thods were constantly skyrocketing. The compression of flesh against flesh, the collision of bone against bone, the heightened functioning of his internal organs, the rushing of his blood... Combat. It was the best tempering for the physique! This hard-hitting, fist-against-fist style of combat was almost comparable in effect to Lu Yuan training in a hundred-fold gravity field.
BOOM!
Lu Yuan sent the Moly Demon flying with a punch. The terrifying recoil stimulated the blood-red lotus eye pattern on his back, causing it to seemingly bloom a little more. The Demonic Eye seed to open a fraction wider. Lu Yuan clearly felt his Fist Strength growing. Compared to when he first exchanged blows with the Moly Demon, it had increased by about seven or eight tons, soaring from fifty tons to nearly sixty. Ultimate Outburst delved even deeper into the potential of his physique, which had already broken its limit once, so the amplification to his Fist Strength also beca greater.
"Sure-kill! [Dragon in Clouds]!"
In a certain mont, inspiration burst forth in Lu Yuan’s mind, and countless images of the Swimming Dragon Punch from various angles flashed rapidly through his thoughts. As if divinely inspired, he suddenly threw a punch. The Spirit Crane’s True Intention hovering around him suddenly transford into the shape of a dragon. On the Fighter panel, two skill points unlocked simultaneously, their brilliance flaring! The bright yellow Ten Thousand Refining Crane Bone Strength blazed intensely, enveloping Lu Yuan’s figure, making him seem like a dark cloud suddenly shifting horizontally. Within the cloud... a dragon soared!
BOOM!
This fist heavily struck the Moly Demon’s massive silver fist, making a resounding CLANG, like heavy tal striking tal. The Moly Demon’s feet dug into the ground as its massive two-point-five-ter-tall body was pushed back like a thick tal wall, carving two deep trenches in the earth. It retreated more than ten ters before stopping, standing perfectly still and silent.
Lu Yuan blinked, looking at his right hand, the one that had just delivered the punch. He was surprised. That last punch had been the culmination of his montum, strength, True Intention, and everything else, all built to a peak. He hadn’t expected the Moly Demon to actually withstand it.
Truly... Fantastic! Absolutely fantastic!
His eyes shone with a strange light, and he twisted his body, about to charge again.
"Again!"
But before he could surge forward, suddenly...
CRACK!
A sound of tal shattering rang out.
Lu Yuan was taken aback and halted.
CRACK! CRACK! CRACK! CRACK...
A series of tallic shattering sounds echoed incessantly. The Moly Demon, standing so ten ters away from Lu Yuan, suddenly began to tremble violently like chaff in a sieve. On its majestic, silver-cast body, countless cracks, both small and large, burst open. In just a few breaths, silver fragnts littered the ground around it, revealing the red and white flesh and bone beneath, which was almost shattered and mangled into a pulp...
Finally, with a CRASH, it fell straight backward, its heavy body smashing into the ground and making the whole area tremble violently.
Lu Yuan was dumbfounded. For a mont, he couldn’t react.
"How did it... suddenly die?!" he stamred. "Uhh..."
