Chapter 374 - 370: Berserk Hong Yu
Even with his Eight Desolates Dominating Body, Hong Yu’s hands were still frozen purple by the Ice Dragon, a layer of pale blue frost covering them.
A bone-chilling cold threatened to freeze the very blood flowing through his veins.
This was an extremely dangerous situation.
Once his blood froze, Hong Yu would lose all ability to move.
He might even lose his life.
But in this dire situation, with all odds stacked against him, Hong Yu chose to launch a desperate counterattack!
His hands tightened around the Ice Dragon’s head. A powerful aura he had long suppressed suddenly erupted, and a roar like cracking thunder exploded from his throat.
"Get the hell down!"
Hong Yu’s eyes were completely bloodshot, his gaze furious as he roared in rage.
He was angry!
Truly angry!
He had reached the absolute peak of fury!
In terms of status, Hai Cangtian was countless times higher than him.
He had never provoked the man in the slightest.
But Hai Cangtian had tried to kill him time and time again, even insidiously inciting three giants to ambush and murder him.
He had even used Wang Jiankun to threaten him, holding the entire Hong Family and his own master hostage.
From the moment he appeared, he had acted high and mighty, carrying himself as if he were second only to the heavens. It was an attitude that screamed, ’You, Hong Yu, are nothing but an ant before me, Hai Cangtian! A piece of shit I could kill with a single spit!’
Hong Yu couldn’t take it anymore!
He couldn’t endure it!
And he refused to tolerate it any longer.
’You motherfucker!’
’I don’t start fights, but if someone comes for me, I’ll fight back. You’ve targeted me again and again. Even if I have to throw my life away, I’m going to take a piece of you with me!’
This was exactly how Hong Yu felt right now.
Spurred on by this extreme rage, a frenzied bloodline hidden deep within his marrow actually showed signs of loosening.
As this bloodline stirred, a web of red veins spread through Hong Yu’s eyes, covering his entire eyeballs.
His cold, sharp gaze was filled with a grim and furious flame.
’I don’t give a damn if you’re a Prince. Even if you were the Celestial King himself, you provoked me today, so I’m going to mess you up, I’m going to kill you!’
"Hai Cangtian, you son of a bitch—get! Down! Here!"
As Hong Yu roared, his body spun up as if it were a top.
His hands stubbornly gripped the Ice Dragon, and no matter how it twisted and struggled, he brutally dragged it down from mid-air.
BOOM!
The Ice Dragon slammed heavily onto the ground.
But this wasn’t the end. On the contrary, it was only the beginning of Hong Yu’s rampage.
When the Ice Dragon crashed to the ground, ice shards flew everywhere, and the entire mountain peak trembled.
Hong Yu pushed the third style of Tyrant’s Walk—Gale Fury—to its absolute limit.
Gale Fury!
The essence of this style was fury. As he channeled it, Hong Yu’s body spun relentlessly.
His feet stomped on the ground again and again, each step kicking up huge chunks of dirt and gravel. And with this spin, the Ice Dragon held tightly in Hong Yu’s hands also began to rotate.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
The Ice Dragon’s body was immense.
With every rotation, its body slammed violently against the ground.
And...
This wasn’t just a simple slam. Its entire body was rolling like a barrel, constantly colliding and scraping against the ground.
The mountains of the Cyan Nether Mountain Range were extremely hard. Beneath the surface layer of soil lay a foundation of sharp, jagged rock.
After three rotations had scraped away five meters of topsoil, every impact the Ice Dragon suffered was a collision with the hard mountain rock.
CRACK! CRACK! CRACK!
A web of cracks spread across the Ice Dragon’s body.
Under this frenzied and hysterical assault, gaps began to appear all over the Ice Dragon as ice shards scattered everywhere.
Even its four Dragon Claws were shattered to pieces by the impacts.
ROAR! ROAR! ROAR!
The Ice Dragon roared in defiance.
However...
Faced with Hong Yu, who was spinning like a storm, what room did it have to resist?
Even Hai Cangtian, standing atop the dragon’s head, was stunned by Hong Yu’s assault.
He gripped the Ice Dragon’s pair of Dragon Horns for dear life, his expression incredibly grim.
He never would have imagined...
...that the mayfly he thought he could crush at will actually had the power to shake a towering tree!
"D-damn it... Hong Yu, stop! Stop it now..." Hai Cangtian roared furiously.
At his full power, he could naturally have broken free from this attack.
But the problem was, he was currently suppressing his cultivation to the Early-stage Primordial Core Realm!
Besides...
Hai Cangtian had always been arrogant. He had already boasted that he would deal with Hong Yu while remaining at the Early-stage Primordial Core Realm. If he were to unleash his Primordial Embryo Realm power now, wouldn’t that be the same as slapping his own face?
Torn by indecision, Hai Cangtian could only act like a pitiful puppet. In one collision after another, even the robes on his body were torn to shreds.
His entire body was caked in a layer of pale blue frost.
Hong Yu’s outburst lasted for a full five minutes.
In those five minutes, he had dragged the Ice Dragon with him, forcibly burrowing over three hundred meters deep into the mountain from the peak.
The Ice Dragon, which had started at five meters tall and fifty meters long, had been smashed by Hong Yu until it was only six meters long and half a meter tall.
Covered in frost, Hai Cangtian stood on the dragon’s head—which now only had half a mouth left—his face ashen.
He glanced down at his own wretched state, his brow twitching and the corner of his lip spasming uncontrollably.
’I never thought I’d end up in such a miserable state.’
"I told you to get down!"
Hong Yu roared again.
He slammed his hands down. BOOM! A blast of ice-blue light exploded, and ice chips filled the air.
Caught off guard, Hai Cangtian was viciously slammed into the rock wall.
While the pain was nothing to him, the problem was, this was utterly humiliating!
Hai Cangtian couldn’t help but look at the several-hundred-meter-deep chasm that Hong Yu had carved out with the Ice Dragon.
The chasm had started out nearly a hundred meters long and over ten meters wide, but now it could barely fit the two of them. The entire path was covered in frost, like a glacier.
This was all caused by the shattered Ice Dragon freezing the surrounding rock!
Looking at the ground littered with ice shards and recalling his earlier confident, self-assured declaration—"With seventy percent of my power, you, Hong Yu, will surely die"—Hai Cangtian’s face suddenly burned with shame.
It felt as if someone had suddenly called out his lie right in the middle of his most intense bragging.
And then slapped him hard across the face in front of a huge crowd.
Humiliating!
So fucking humiliating!
Hai Cangtian glared at Hong Yu with a furious and venomous gaze, his anger burning. His voice was laced with a grim chill. "Good! Good! Good, Hong Yu! You’re ruthless. You’re fucking ruthless."
PANT! PANT!
Hong Yu gasped for breath.
That explosion of power had taken a huge toll on him. If not for his previous cultivation of the Nine Refinements of the Primordial Spirit and the Celestial Soul Nine Refinements, and the Primordial Gang Fighting Technique which had formed his Infinite Golden Core, his situation would be dire. These techniques made his Primordial Gang’s Power far more condensed and its reserves a full eighteen times greater than that of other powerhouses at the same Level.
Without them, he probably would have already exhausted his power during that outburst.
Even so, Hong Yu had now used up more than half of his Primordial Gang’s Power.
Facing Hai Cangtian’s fury, Hong Yu suddenly grinned, a hint of wildness and abandon in his expression.
That hysterical outburst had given him a flash of insight. Or perhaps, after loosening, that hidden trace of bloodline within him had quietly begun to resonate with him.
It was subtly changing him.
He gritted his teeth. "Hai Cangtian, didn’t you say I would surely die under your Ice Dragon Break?"
The moment the words left his mouth, Hong Yu threw a punch.
Hai Cangtian clearly hadn’t expected Hong Yu to be so tenacious, to still have the strength to attack after all that. Caught completely off guard, he took a heavy punch to the face from Hong Yu.
BANG!
Hai Cangtian was sent flying backward. With the hard rock wall right behind him, he was smashed half a meter deep into it.
He was stunned!
But Hong Yu didn’t care. Using Wind Rider, he rushed forward at top speed and threw another vicious punch.
"Weren’t you so fucking arrogant?"
"Didn’t you say killing me was like killing an ant?"
"Didn’t you say me fighting you was like a mantis trying to stop a chariot?"
"Fuck your ancestors, Hai Cangtian! Let me tell you, I fucking hate self-important assholes like you the most! Suppress your cultivation? I’ll suppress your mother! Fuck! Fuck! Fuck!"
Amidst a storm of furious roars,
Hong Yu rained down punch after punch.
A flurry of fists descended. Each punch was the result of using the Wind Vortex and the Vibrating Rune Technique to their absolute peak, pushed to the Transformation Realm!
Fists fell one after another like a meteor shower.
The already dazed Hai Cangtian was hit by dozens more of Hong Yu’s punches. With each impact, his body was driven deeper into the mountain wall. Rocks crumbled around them, and new cracks spread across the mountain face.
By the time Hong Yu had forced Hai Cangtian thirty to fifty meters deep into the mountain, he finally came to his senses.
"You bastard, Hong Yu! This Prince will make you wish you were dead!"
Hai Cangtian roared again and again.
His face was now bruised and swollen, but he had at last recovered from Hong Yu’s rampage.
He tried to use a powerful Martial Skill, but inside the mountain, many Martial Skills were simply impossible to execute.
Furthermore...
If he were to unleash certain powerful Martial Skills, he might cause the entire mountain to collapse. If he got buried underneath, even with his Primordial Embryo Realm strength, he could be severely injured!
With no other choice, Hai Cangtian was forced into a fierce melee with Hong Yu.
You throw a punch, I throw a palm strike!
The two fought relentlessly.
The space was too confined, severely limiting their ability to dodge. So, they both abandoned defense, letting loose with wide, sweeping attacks.
Fist met flesh!
Every palm strike was merciless!
In a brawl like this, the contest came down to sheer ruthlessness and a willingness to press forward no matter what.
The rampaging Hong Yu held the clear advantage.
Under the constant assault, their battle grew increasingly intense. They actually blasted back and forth through the mountain, carving out a tunnel nearly a thousand meters long through the solid rock with their bare bodies.
"Hai Cangtian, you better remember this! A mayfly can shake a tree, and an ant can overturn the heavens!"
Hong Yu’s left hand shot out, grabbing Hai Cangtian’s clothes and pulling him close.
Then, he pulled back his right fist. The Nine Feather Flying Knives spun around his arm. This punch, augmented by the impact of the Nine Feather Flying Knives, carried a force of nearly ten million.
This was already enough to annihilate a Primordial Embryo Realm Powerhouse!
With such terrifying power, he threw his fist viciously toward Hai Cangtian...
