Chapter 750 - 699: Sorry, Impossible! (3)
BOOM—!
BOOM, BOOM, BOOM—!
BANG, BANG, BANG!!!
Inside the castle, a series of explosions, like cannon fire, continuously erupted. The entire structure shook and trembled with the sounds as massive, gaping holes appeared in its walls. The interior architecture was utterly obliterated, its floors pockmarked with deep, enormous craters. The devastation was absolute, turning the castle into a ruin more wrecked than any battlefield.
On a distant skyscraper rooftop, Li Tiandao and his attendant, Xiao Er, had not left, even though they couldn’t see the battle raging inside.
"Master, what’s the situation?" Xiao Er asked after a moment of thought.
"I am not sure," Li Tiandao whispered, shaking his head.
"Not sure? Master, you can’t sense the aura inside?" Xiao Er exclaimed in disbelief, his eyes widening.
"The aura within is too chaotic, so chaotic that it’s impossible to track any changes. It seems I wasn’t mistaken. Although I can’t sense the state of the battle, the fact that they’ve fought to this point and created such a scene proves that Qin Fan’s strength is an undeniable threat to those two beasts. In this world, the number of people who could single-handedly fight both of them can be counted on one hand. More importantly, he’s even younger than I am. I must say, he is truly a prodigy one might only see once in ten thousand years," Li Tiandao concluded, a note of sincere admiration in his sigh.
"It’s a shame that Master has already deemed him a dead man," Xiao Er said, first nodding, then shaking his head. "To live in the same era as you is his tragedy, his misfortune."
"Perhaps. But I’ve changed my mind," Li Tiandao said, pursing his lips. His voice remained light, free of any burden, as if he were merely watching a play unfold with detached amusement. "If he can walk out of there, and if he is willing to bow down and submit, I might not deny him the opportunity to become one of my War Generals. However, those two ’ifs’ are somewhat unrealistic. The former is plausible, but the chance of the latter is minuscule."
"So, no matter what, his fate is sealed. He either dies at the hands of those two beasts or becomes a stepping stone for you, Master," Xiao Er stated.
"Yes," Li Tiandao replied with a light chuckle, nodding earnestly.
「Within the castle」
Amid his rage, Qin Fan relentlessly unleashed the Earth Evil Divine Power. Holding nothing back, he forwent many killing blows in his fury, instead using the werewolf and the vampire as punching bags to test his Divine Skills. He started from the first form of the Earth Evil power and worked his way up to the sixty-fourth.
In response, the Wolf King and Earl Geman were subjected to a brutal assault that made them question their own existence. The man they had dismissed as a pushover had turned the tables on them, filling them with boundless terror.
"You’re not a Martial Artist! You’re not a Martial Artist!" Earl Geman shrieked in horror, kneeling on the ground as he coughed up mouthful after mouthful of Essence Blood. Although he possessed an Undying Body, he was battered and completely drained by the continuous assault of the Earth Evil Divine Power, which wielded the might of a Golden Core. His Life Force remained, but an overwhelming sense of exhaustion surged through him.
"Whether I’m a Martial Artist is irrelevant," Qin Fan said coldly, his face an emotionless mask as he looked down on the kneeling Earl. "What matters is that your Undying Body is about to be reduced to ash!"
As his words fell, the frenzied True Yuan within his body rushed toward his eyes. The next second, his Eyes of Golden Flame activated. A brilliant golden light, like that of a world-ending cataclysm, burst forth, enveloping Earl Geman’s kneeling form.
"NO! NO! NO!" The moment the golden light touched him, Geman screamed in terror and despair. In that instant, he was overwhelmed by a sense of annihilation he had never known. The concept of ’death’ suddenly dominated his consciousness. His Undying Body faced an unprecedented threat.
His bat-like form began to dissolve within the golden radiance. Watching his own body vanish inch by inch, Geman lost all control and began begging hysterically. "No, no, spare me! Ah—I’ll obey your every command! I’ll acknowledge you as my master! Spare me! Spare me!"
Yet, faced with these desperate pleas, Qin Fan remained unmoved. Instead, at the cost of his own True Yuan, he accelerated the release of the Destruction Light from his Eyes of Golden Flame.
Three breaths later, the screams abruptly ceased. Earl Geman was thus annihilated by the Eyes of Golden Flame, evaporating completely, leaving not even a trace of ash or cloth behind.
"Your turn."
After destroying Earl Geman, Qin Fan turned his gaze to the Wolf King, who was slumped in the depths of a massive crater. The Wolf King was panting heavily, his body trying to self-heal. But compared to the injuries Qin Fan had inflicted, this healing had restored less than thirty percent of his strength.
"Can you at least let me die knowing? Who in the world are you?" Even Geman with his Undying Body had been destroyed in an instant. At this point, the Wolf King was utterly devoid of hope.
"Sorry, I can’t," Qin Fan replied, his expression still somber as he slowly shook his head.
With that, he gave the Wolf King no further chance to speak. His hands moved rapidly, forming a seal.
"Earth Evil, Sixty-Fifth Form: Dragon Ascending Nine Transformations!"
WHOOSH—!
WHOOSH, WHOOSH—!
WHOOSH, WHOOSH, WHOOSH—!
As Qin Fan’s deep shout echoed, nine whooshing sounds erupted from the crown of his head. Nine faint Qi Dragons sprang forth and swiftly fused into one. With a decisive gesture from Qin Fan, the ferocious dragon dove toward the Wolf King in the crater, violently burrowing straight into his chest.
"Ugh—!"
The moment the Qi Dragon entered his body, the Wolf King’s dim, dark-green eyes widened in shock. His expression froze.
The next moment, BOOM!!!
An explosion erupted from his chest, disintegrating it into fragments. His internal organs were instantly incinerated.
A Wolf King who once struck terror across the Dark World. An Earl Geman who ruled over half of Europe. Two of the four great titans of the Dark World perished and vanished on this day.
After this day, the world would know no Wolf King.
After this day, the line of Vampires was extinct.
SPLAT!!!
After dealing with the Wolf King and Earl Geman, Qin Fan suddenly staggered, a mouthful of Essence Blood spewing from his lips. He hadn’t been injured in the battle; rather, the excessive drain on his True Yuan had damaged his Primordial Energy. Unleashing sixty-five forms of the Earth Evil Divine Power and the Destruction Light from his Eyes of Golden Flame had consumed a tremendous amount of energy. He had acted purely to vent his rage, without considering the consequences.
Wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth, he took a few deep breaths to steady his turbulent aura. Only then did Qin Fan begin to walk out, his steps weak and unsteady.
「On the skyscraper rooftop」
The moment Qin Fan emerged from the castle, Xiao Er’s eyes went wide. "What? The Wolf King and Earl Geman are dead?"
"Interesting, hehe," Li Tiandao murmured, a playful smirk gracing his lips.
As soon as Li Tiandao’s amused voice faded, Xiao Er spoke with ragged breaths, "Master, should we take this chance while he’s weak? We can kill him and eliminate a future threat!" As he spoke, the corners of his mouth and eyes twitched uncontrollably in a mad frenzy.
