CHAPTER 692: CHAPTER 179 SEEKING A BREAKTHROUGH

No one above the rank of king was a fool; they too noticed the abnormalities in their bodies, exchanging glances, as their coordination once again changed.

A small number of the king-ranked powerhouses withdrew from the fray, beginning to charge their skills.

After a brief incantation, a succession of skills containing terrifying power rained down upon Lu Hong.

Lu Hong, however, was well prepared and instantly activated his iron fortress, securely shielding himself.

Outside the fortress, countless skills battered down chaotically without breaching the fort’s defense.

Just as the king-ranked powerhouses were about to unite once more and launch a massive strike to break through the defense, Lu Hong proactively dismissed the fortress and raised his palm toward them.

This was the moment he was waiting for!

"Chaotic Uprising!"

Against peak powerhouses, directly releasing Chaotic Uprising would have limited impact, but the king-ranked powerhouses’ vitality started to wane after exertion, and during their collective spellcasting, their defenses were at their weakest.

As Lu Hong clenched his palm, the group of king-ranked powerhouses felt their hearts contract as though being firmly grasped.

This turn of events also caused their internal Magic Power to flow chaotically, and as their gathered magics twisted, they explosively detonated.

Rampant Magic Power swept across a thousand miles, obliterating everything into nothingness.

In dealing with these foreign races, Lu Hong showed no mercy; under the extraction of the Bloodthirst power, the blood of those slain in the Chaotic Uprising and Magic Power storm was quickly absorbed.

Then, accumulating this power, he unleashed the secret technique above the frenzy!

"Blood Fiend Condense Sky Realm!"

Below the shattered earth, a gaping abyssal maw leaped forth from the horizon, as if to devour everything, swallowing all the king-ranked powerhouses.

This was the only realm skill Lu Hong had comprehended, possessing a formidable sealing power.

The powerhouses devoured by it were plunged into a world of blood, where countless chains pierced them, feasting on their flesh and draining their power.

This realm skill had an exceedingly violent ability: assimilation.

The longer one stayed inside, the more severe the decline in strength—making it all the more impossible to break free.

Of course, these king-ranked powerhouses no longer had the ability to break free from this realm.

Before long, hundreds of foreign king-ranked powerhouses were slaughtered by Lu Hong, but to him, the fervor generated from this battle was still insufficient, far from meeting the standard for his ascension.

Dispelling the Bloodthirst power, Lu Hong felt a wave of fatigue wash over him.

Even as a being at the Third Transition Peak Perfection, to take on a hundred alone was still a fool’s dream.

The reason Lu Hong was able to thoroughly dominate a hundred king-ranked powerhouses was largely due to Bloodthirst; after all, burying so many foes, it would have been a shame not to harvest a wave of their vital blood, wouldn’t it?

It was that Bloodthirst power which allowed Lu Hong to wield enough Magic Power to match a hundred king-ranked powerhouses.

Furthermore, it was Lu Hong’s own skills’ ultimate refinement that led to such an extraordinary feat.

Dizziness surged, and Lu Hong staggered, nearly falling over.

Had it not been for Gui He, who once brought him the blood of the ancient Clan Elders, greatly fortifying his physique, he likely wouldn’t have lasted until the arrival of the foreign king-ranked powerhouses, and his Bloodthirst Skill might have burst him apart.

Slaying a hundred foreign king-ranked powerhouses certainly granted an abundant amount of experience, but Lu Hong hardly felt any advancement.

Breaking through next would lead to the Heavenly God Realm, and although Lu Hong could utilize an experience bar for a sensationless breakthrough, it seemed limited to the Blood Frenzy class. Lu Hong was unsure if, after breaking through to the Heavenly God Realm using the experience bar, his experience would also benefit other classes—after all, above the Heavenly God, there were three more realms.

Thus, from the beginning, Lu Hong had no intention of using experience to break through to the Heavenly God Realm. And as for the experience required for ascension—ha, who knew how much that would be?

Therefore, Lu Hong must continue to fight, seeking a breakthrough amidst the battles!

As the news of the fall of a hundred king-ranked powerhouses spread, all foreign races fell into silence.

"Ancestor, are you sure this human is not a Heavenly God?" the Clan Leader of the Bi Luo clan knelt before his own ancestor, weeping uncontrollably.

The fallen king-ranked powerhouse from the Bi Luo clan was his only son—whose pain of losing a child could understand?

The Bi Luo ancestor sighed, "He is indeed not a Heavenly God."

"Then who in the world can suppress him?"

The Bi Luo ancestor shook his head, "Almost no one. I fear only Lion Jiu Dao, who was yet to become a god, could match him."

"Ancestor, if this person becomes a god, our Bi Luo clan is in peril! I beseech you to take action, to cut him down!"

The Bi Luo Clan Leader bowed again, imploring the ancestor to intervene.

The Bi Luo ancestor seemed to have anticipated this request, neither declining nor agreeing.

Because this was not a challenge for just his clan alone but more crucially, after slaughtering the king-ranked powerhouses, this human had entered the sea realm!

While the Sea clan rarely involved themselves in continental wars, their strength was unquestionably mighty, with eighteen Sea Seekers possessing incredible Tao Tian power—dealing with these lower-level Heavenly Gods was almost as simple as stabbing with a fork.

You want him, a Bi Luo Heavenly God, to delve into the sea realm to kill a mortal?

First, setting foot in the sea realm could lead to discovery by a Sea Seeker, who could effortlessly slay him with a fork. Secondly, even if by chance he avoided the Sea Seekers, the vast ocean’s influence under the Sea God rendered their low-level Heavenly Gods’ Divine Soul perception nearly null, so where to block that human?

That being said, they still had to think of a way to kill this person.

As for the method, it required many people, only with a large number could they draw the Sea clan’s attention, thus granting them passage into the Sea clan’s domain, and perhaps even help them locate this human.
