CHAPTER 684: CHAPTER 409 NUTRIENTS FOR THE LIE DINGSHI’S CREATURES

"Past grudges, will you let them go?"

The reserved voice echoed in his ears, and memories from the past flashed through Chen Feng’s mind.

Arrogant Golden Guard, brutal Onite....

If the other party hadn’t mentioned it, he would have almost forgotten about the small player Utopia and those grievances that were close to being resolved.

"So?"

The woman named Oona continued to ask, her neck rising slightly like a swan.

The virtual projection was almost lifelike; Chen Feng could clearly feel the arrogance of the Lute family from the superconglomerate.

A few words could make everything seem natural, claiming to write off the so-called grievances as if it were a great boon to him, the target of this resentment.

"What if I say no?"

He asked calmly, as Chen Feng’s eyebrows slowly relaxed.

"Oh?"

Oona’s eyes flashed, but she wasn’t surprised.

The data provided by Chi Bo Energy and the various investigations by the conglomerate had long concluded that the other party had a strong-willed personality.

But.

Interesting.

A gleam flashed in her eyes; taming such a wild horse was the way to demonstrate her and the Lute family’s status.

"You certainly can refuse."

"The strongest martial artist unmatched, it sounds so thrilling."

The reserved tone remained filled with intense pride, as Oona used the drone’s view to encompass the entire Flame Tiger Mountain Gate.

"However, the world is vast."

"Legendary technology is not exclusive to Chi Country; your so-called strongest martial arts seem difficult to easily surpass."

She slightly smiled, eventually retracting her gaze.

"So, think it over carefully."

"This is our Lute family’s last sign of sin.... "

"Annoying chatter."

Chen Feng suddenly interrupted.

Oona’s eyes sharpened, frowning, about to continue.

Boom!!!

The drone suddenly exploded, charred debris with flames splattered in all directions.

The blue light projection flickered chaotically, about to disappear.

Chen Feng remained standing in place, staring into the frozen shocked blue eyes.

"You don’t even dare to send transformed people....."

"Threaten me, are you worthy?"

Buzz!!

The blue light projection completely vanished, as the explosive firelight fell silently.

It was as if nothing had happened; Chen Feng turned and walked towards the mountain gate pavilion, his expression serene.

The disciples who noticed the commotion and hurried over wore confused expressions, until ultimately he silently entered his yard, calm as still water.

.....

Buzz!

At the same moment, in Black Port City, Platinum Federation.

Communication cut off, the last image of the drone explosion simultaneously relayed back.

"Threaten me, are you worthy?"

The indifferent inquiry, as the black-clad youth stood calmly as if observing insects.

Once again, it seemed natural; without using any power, he destroyed the force-field-protected hovering drone relying solely on ultimate intent.

Such a scene changed the atmosphere in the castle study, falling into silence.

The security in suits and the servants waiting here had slight changes in their expressions, bowing slightly, not daring to make any noise as they exchanged discreet glances.

A sidelong glance.

Seated in a leather chair backed by a carved window, the woman in the white dress with brown hair showed no expression, though her slightly narrowed eyes indicated an internal upheaval.

"Young Mistress..."

A gray-haired butler in a tailcoat spoke, but soon was interrupted by Oona shaking her head.

"Indeed a strong-willed character, with some backbone."

"I underestimated him."

She offered a simple assessment, the sunlight from the carved window reflected off the white dress, shining like crystal.

"Yet, Father was truly right."

"To tame a wild horse like this, first you must break the bones.... "

....

....

That night, shrouded in mist.

Chen Feng stood atop a ruined cityscape, overlooking the many Black Tide creatures coming to encircle and attack.

To him, the Lute family’s threats were nothing more than a joke.

As for so-called cooperation?

No matter the past grievances.

The Platinum Federation and Chi Country were like water and fire, and he despised duplicity, naturally making cooperation impossible.

Boom!!

As the thought flashed, countless Black Tide creatures in the distance were momentarily cleared out by the Holy Shield Giant with a single punch.

Blood and flesh remnants splattered across the sky as ruins collapsed continuously.

However, his expression didn’t change.

Chen Feng simply stood on the rooftop, watching through the gap in the high walls, numerous large sixth-order mutated creatures flying in.

The giant lizard with wings on its back, remarkably similar to the legendary dragon of the West.

Nearly a hundred meters in size, each scale armor was exceptionally sturdy, appearing like heavy black armor.

Its claws were like blades, each several meters long, emitting a cold gleam.

Their hardness was comparable to rainbow iron, and each touch to the ground was as easy as tearing through tofu.

Boom!!!

In a blink, the intense collision between it and the Holy Shield Giant resembled two comets crashing into the earth.

Wild airwaves transformed into a storm, no Black Tide creature could stand within a kilometer around.

A deep pit of ruins reappeared, crackling fissures constantly spreading.

Regarding this.

"Angel-level creatures aren’t easy to find...."

Chen Feng sighed deeply, gazing at that dragon-like creature.

A faint green mark on his hand flickered; green-black carapace spread like a tide, covering his entire body.

The singular horn shimmering under the moonlight in a mystical scarlet, strands of black light crackled like lightning, gathering momentum.

The Heart of Life’s storage limit allowed him to absorb life essence at the Lie Dingshi level, offering a near-perpetual source of massive replenishment.

However, Lie Dingshi was too rare, so much so that he didn’t succeed smoothly in the Realm of the Dead.

So.

Whoosh!!!

The Charging Black Flash of the Single Horn dazzled, consuming considerable Physical Strength, enough to shatter Rainbow Iron with a single strike.

Boom!!

The giant dragon, restrained by the Holy Shield Giant, staggered backwards, crushing the ground, and collapsing a skyscraper.

Scales shattered, blood splattered.

Seizing the moment as the ground trembled, Blood Wings vibrated, and Chen Feng darted in front of it.

The scarlet eyes of Glass Steel met the black scarlet vertical pupils of the dragon, reflected in the corner of its eye was the gaping maw of its roar.

Buzz!

Shoo!!!

A dark purple beam of Breath roared out, nearly ten meters thick, dazzling the night sky.

Chen Feng instantly flashed behind it, visibly watching one ruinous skyscraper after another explode in the distance.

"Roar!!"

As if sensing a crisis, the giant dragon’s wings vibrated.

The rising gale resembling a tornado briefly halted Chen Feng’s body in mid-air.

Suddenly.

Whoosh!!!

The swinging dragon tail soared with a whistling sonic boom, striking directly at Chen Feng.

Just as it was about to hit.

Bang!!

The Holy Shield Giant stepped forth, exploding with golden light, throwing out a sky-piercing punch.

The few-meter-sized fist collided like a mountain, directly hitting the shattered scales on the dragon’s chest abdomen.

The brutal Strength erupted, shaking the heavens and the earth, a circle of white air formed a dozen-meter ring exploding open, overturning all nearby buildings.

The giant dragon’s already Black Flash-induced injuries expanded further, its body trembled, then stomped and retreated again.

The swung tail thus hindered, unable to succeed, greeted with an all-out Golden Spear.

Shoo!!

The Steel Bone Spear dazzled the night sky, heading straight for its lizard-like dragon head.

However.

Clang!!

Sparks flew, Chen Feng was shocked.

Somehow, a black light appeared on the dragon’s scales, thus enhancing its defense.

Originally comparable to Rainbow Iron, the scales thus increased in hardness, blocking Chen Feng’s sure-kill strike.

"Roar!!"

The dragon roared, barely withstanding the Steel Bone pierce, but still dazed and shaky.

The already unstable posture caused it to retreat again, with more and more Black Tide Creatures swarming in, forming a dark beast tide densely encircling.

"Quick battle, decisive victory."

Chen Feng and the Holy Shield Giant exchanged glances, their Spiritual Link communicating seamlessly.

Boom!!!

Suddenly, the Power of Earth Veins was activated.

The concrete ground, as if liquid, transformed and surged, forming several hundred-meter-sized gray flood dragons, soaring upwards.

Each Black Tide Creature swiftly exploded, the retreating giant dragon also bound and entangled.

"Roar!!"

It roared again, its body bursting with black light, forcibly shattering the Earth Vein flood dragon.

Wings spanning over a hundred meters flapped sideways, creating a storm, about to ascend, avoiding the limitations of terrain between ruins and skyscrapers.

But.

Buzz!!!

A terrifying gravitational pressure descended abruptly, the ascending giant dragon suddenly froze.

The scarlet eyes of Glass Steel reflected everything, Chen Feng suspended mid-air, the air around him twisted, the green-black Carapace had long grown thicker, the Single Horn pattern on his chest flashed scarlet.

The opening of the Superlimit State, simultaneous use of Gravity Well and Storm Fury.

Physical Strength began consuming madly; he desired this moment for battle.

The double strike from gravity and spirit, even Level Evaluators couldn’t completely escape this moment!

Ka!

In an instant, he stood void, sinking his waist, hands turning Steel Bone into a Red Gold Spear.

Both hands gripped the spear shaft, the sharp spearhead reflected the scarlet moonlight.

"Horn Strike!"

Whoosh!!!

Green Gold color tore the sky, instantly brushing past the giant dragon.

A conical sonic wave lingered in the night sky, appearing as a line that streaked across the moonlight.

And then.

Splurt!!

Blood gushed, the giant dragon crashed down.

A several-meter-sized blood hole appeared at the lizard-like dragon head, dark green blood surged up like a fountain.

Visibly its Life Essence was rapidly declining, the huge wings started to cease trembling.

"Hoo!!"

He exhaled white turbid air, Chen Feng suspended in mid-air, rising from a crouch.

The load brought by Horn Strike and Superlimit State wasn’t light, but ultimately within bearing range.

However.

"The Level Evaluator’s Life Force, truly powerful."

Turning to see, the dragon’s Life Essence hadn’t completely dissipated.

It seemed some Origin Power wanted to repair that fatal wound, even near death still having a slim chance.

But for this, Chen Feng wouldn’t give it another chance.

Whoosh!!

A flash of figure, the Red Gold Spear suddenly enlarged, tearing the dragon’s flesh.

The Heart of Life in his chest thus quivered, seemingly emitting a faint green glow.

A powerful suction began to plunder everything, the dragon’s Life Essence rapidly drained, transferred to Chen Feng’s body.

But soon.

Buzz!!

The Blood Moon in mid-air suddenly flickered, eerie scarlet moonlight spilled upon its body.

The dragon’s heartbeat thus quivered, as if stirred by something.

The Origin Power, meant to heal the wound, began to struggle, visibly its scarlet vertical eyes contracted and trembled.

In just a breath, inch by inch black light gathered and flashed on the scales, making Chen Feng inexplicably sense a hint of danger.

"Self-destruct?"

His gaze tightened, instantly discerning something amiss.

This was the Black Tide’s interference.

Trying to make it self-destruct its body, retaining the Life Origin Essence, allowing return to the Black Tide for rebirth?
