Chapter 219: A New Form!
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Superpowers could be advanced again.
It was similar to the kind where the Void Realm was upgraded from the beginner level to the intermediate level.
Previously, because of his personality, Lu Ming rarely fought opponents who were evenly matched.
This had its advantages as it meant that he would not be in much danger.
But it also had its drawbacks: there were some things that were destined not to be tempered!
In this battle against Li De, Lu Ming also admitted that Li De was a very strong opponent. But precisely because he was a good opponent, it allowed Lu Ming to undergo some significant refinement.
“So, it’s not entirely a good thing to just focus on improving attributes in isolation…”
Lu Ming could not help but sigh, and then he was punched in the face by Li De.
There was intense pain, followed by numbness.
He opened his eyes and, watching Li De swing his fist again, Lu Ming’s gaze became serious, with no room for other distractions.
The rematch between Lu Ming and Li De seemed, from an external perspective, no different from before.
The intense battle continued.
Gigantic fifty-meter figures.
The entire periphery of the Imperial City District had already been destroyed by the two giants.
Moreover, both of them possessed explosive and astonishing strength and speed.
A violent astral wind blew wantonly.
This was the aftermath of their clashes.
Thunderous roars echoed throughout the entire Imperial City District.
And this was merely the sonic boom generated by their collisions!
Slowly, despair rose in the eyes of Roda and Roxin.
This was because Lu Ming was indeed no match for Li De.
Roxin could barely capture the images of their battle.
However, what she saw was Lu Ming’s bone armor shattered and his entire body covered in injuries.
Roda saw even more…
Naturally, he could see the confident smile on Li De’s face and the killing intent in his eyes.
Li De was certain of his victory…
And now, his battle with Lu Ming was just an outlet for his anger and the pleasure of slaughter.
“Bang.”
Lu Ming’s heavy punch slammed into Li De’s body, but it was perfectly blocked by the Spirit-Light Protection Spell. Li De did not even need to dodge because Lu Ming’s strongest attack could not penetrate his defense system!
His defense was not broken!
Taking advantage of the fact that Lu Ming could not recover immediately after his attack, Li De unleashed a beautiful uppercut that landed squarely on Lu Ming’s chin.
There was a “crack” sound.
The bone armor on Lu Ming’s chin instantly shattered, and the Micro-Level Source Power Armor was as fragile as paper. The force of the punch continued, forcefully entering into Lu Ming’s brain.
The Spirit Communication Force suppressed Lu Ming’s physical reactions, and after entering his brain, it even vaguely confused Lu Ming’s thoughts.
His body was sent flying high, and Li De did not give Lu Ming any chance to catch his breath.
“Yang Spirit Finger! Endless Style!”
White light suddenly erupted from the tip of Li De’s finger, and countless Yang Divine Fingers instantly engulfed Lu Ming. Lu Ming defended himself by wrapping his arms around his body. However, he could not avoid being sent flying by the Yang Spirit Fingers!
It was not until his body soared uncontrollably to a height of a hundred meters that the surging Yang Spirit Fingers suddenly stopped.
Li De’s voice suddenly came from behind Lu Ming.
“Spirit Communication Force! Ghost Tiger!”
Everyone could clearly see that Lu Ming was upside down in the midst of the hundred-meter alt.i.tude in the sky, while Li De was floating behind him.
As Li De briefly acc.u.mulated strength, he punched out with both fists, and a platinum energy surged instantly!
As soon as the energy had been released, it condensed into a huge tiger head. The tiger head roared and swallowed Lu Ming whole into its stomach, and plunged down with Lu Ming!
“Boom!”
A ma.s.sive mushroom cloud erupted.
Even without the remote projection, everyone in the ancestral hall could clearly see the shockwave that soared into the sky!
And Roxin, who was closest to the battlefield, had run far away earlier, but she was still blown away by the shockwave, fracturing several of her ribs.
She endured the intense pain and looked at where Lu Ming was.
But the sight that met Roxin’s eyes only made her heart sink deeper and deeper…
The Spirit Communication Force Ghost Tiger, together with Lu Ming, smashed a huge crater on the ground that was comparable to a small lake.
Lu Ming at this moment, was lying in the center of the deep pit.
His entire body was surrounded by a platinum light—this light was like an electric current, causing Lu Ming’s body to go numb and rendering him immobile!
“My Spirit Communication Force has the effect of suppressing the opponent’s physical strength.”
“And Ghost Tiger, based on the regular Spirit Communication Force, further intensifies the effect, making it stronger and faster!”
Li De who had flown above Lu Ming’s head said so.
The unwavering confidence and arrogance in his eyes were evident.
Lu Ming below could only squint his eyes. After a moment, he muttered in a low voice.
“Not enough…”
Li De’s eyes narrowed, “I beg your pardon?”
Lu Ming was about to speak when he saw Li De shake his head with a smile, “Forget it, it doesn’t matter what you say… What matters is that I’m tired of playing.”
As he spoke, he raised his hands and pointed his index fingers at Lu Ming.
“From the beginning of Yang Spirit Finger to the end of Yang Spirit Finger!”
“This move will send you to h.e.l.l!”
“Yang Spirit Finger, Double Extreme Kill!”
White light suddenly appeared on Li De’s fingers.
Then, it was extreme compression!
The white light compressed until the white slowly turned into a platinum color, and the terrifying energy surged at Li De’s fingertips, brewing!
Lu Ming, who was suppressed by Ghost Tiger, could not move at all. He could only watch as the cold killing intent grew stronger and stronger!
This made Lu Ming sigh in his heart.
“What a shame,”
Unfortunately, Li De was not a good sparring partner.
His course of action could not fully align with Lu Ming’s needs.
What was even more regretful was that at this moment, his body self-limitation had not yet completed its transformation. In Lu Ming’s perception, this transformation had only progressed less than one-third….
“Well, it has to be this way.”
As he muttered in his heart, the attribute panel had already appeared in Lu Ming’s retina.
Looking at the words “Body Self-Limitation,” he then glanced at the line of words, Divine Source Points:45.
Lu Ming silently thought in his heart,
“System, Give me more points!”
As Lu Ming’s thoughts flashed, his Divine Source Points suddenly decreased from 45 to 44!
At the next instant, a vast energy surged from an unknown place within Lu Ming’s body, rushing into his brain in an instant.
Lu Ming felt his entire body tremble as immense pain surged all over his body.
He contorted and struggled, as if trying to alleviate the pain in his body by this means.
But in just the blink of an eye, the pain had already dissipated.
The light on the attribute panel suddenly flashed, and the description of the Body Self-Limitation abruptly changed.
At the same time, Li De’s Double Extreme Kill also flashed!
He vaguely sensed that something was wrong.
Because of this, even though the Double Extreme Kill had not reached its peak charge, Li De still brazenly attacked.
Two beams of light descended from the sky and instantly landed on Lu Ming. In an instant, high temperatures and intense light suddenly erupted, as if dyeing the entire world pure white.
“I’m done for…”
“Lu Ming, I’m sorry. It’s my fault that you’re in this situation.”
Roda and Roxin, who were watching the battle, slowly closed their eyes, as if mourning their fallen friend.
Meanwhile, in the Imperial City District, loud cheers erupted .
It was the members of the Divine Dao Alliance celebrating their leader’s great victory!
Yes, Li De was invincible.
At least in this Flame Clan Ruin, in the periphery of the Hundred Thousand Mountains, he was invincible!
Lu Ming, this challenger who was unknown to many people, was merely a stepping stone on Li De’s path to invincibility.
However, slowly, the cheers gradually dissipated.
This was because everyone saw that there was no trace of victorious joy on Li De’s face at all!
He was gritting his teeth and staring at the center of the crater.
A moment later, a somewhat hoa.r.s.e voice sounded from Li De’s mouth.
“How could you not be dead… How could you not be dead!!”
A gentle and calm voice emanated from the bottom of the pit, answering Li De’s question.
“Because you didn’t kill me.”
“You’re strong, but not strong enough.”
“At least you weren’t strong enough to kill me..”
