Chapter 599: Chapter 248: Ferocious Beast Showdown, Ultimate Crushing
"Holy shit!!!"
"He’s kneeling! He’s actually fucking kneeling!"
"His word is law! So badass! He told him to kneel, and he had to kneel!"
"Satisfying! So fucking satisfying!"
However, just as everyone thought the battle was about to end in such a humiliating fashion...
Jiutiao Mingyou, kneeling on the ground, suddenly let out an inhuman, bestial roar from his throat!
"ROAR—!!!"
The next moment, an endless, inky-black mist erupted from his body like a geyser!
Lin Ye’s brow furrowed. He held his breath and retreated.
’This black mist is highly toxic!’
Within the rapidly spreading, inky-black toxic mist, Jiutiao Mingyou’s form began to undergo a swift and bizarre transformation!
His kneeling body was forced upright as his bones made a series of grating cracks. On his skin, glistening black snake scales emerged from his flesh and blood, rapidly covering his entire body.
His neck stretched and thickened in a way that defied the laws of physics, resembling that of a vicious viper.
His mouth split open to his ears, revealing a maw of terrifying fangs. A forked, crimson tongue flickered in and out with a hiss.
The horrific wounds Lin Ye had inflicted upon him writhed and healed at a visible rate during this grotesque transformation, vanishing without a trace in the blink of an eye!
In just a few seconds, a monster nearly three meters tall appeared on the battlefield. It had the upper body of a man and the lower body of a thick serpent’s tail, was covered in black scales, and radiated an endless, chillingly evil aura.
His size was now no less than Lin Ye’s in his Dragon Descendant Incarnation!
Jiutiao Mingyou... or rather, this snakeman monster, spoke in a shrill and venomous voice.
"Did you think..."
"...that you’re the only one... with ancient blood?"
In the live stream chat, all the viewers were dumbfounded.
"Holy shit, what the hell is that thing? A snakeman?"
"Such a wicked transformation! Orochimaru, is that you?!"
「On the battlefield.」
Lin Ye looked at the completely transformed, now hideously ugly Jiutiao Mingyou opposite him. Within his indifferent Molten Gold Vertical Pupils, there was not a hint of surprise—only pure... disgust.
He slowly opened his mouth and spoke only two words.
"How ugly."
In Dong Dongchen’s live stream, the flood of bullet comments that had been covering the screen strangely paused for a second the moment Lin Ye’s "How ugly" was heard.
Then—
"True."
"Hideous!"
"Hahahaha, I declare this the best roast of the match!"
"Savage!"
Dong Dongchen also let out a "PFFT" of laughter. He suppressed his amusement and said, "Ahem, brothers, both are from Ancestral Spirituality, both are transformations, but the difference... how can it be so huge?"
One was a magnificent god from mythology, filled with a brutal, domineering beauty.
The other was like a deformed monster that crawled out of a gutter, disgusting to even look at.
Without comparison, there is no harm.
On the battlefield, Jiutiao Mingyou’s serpentine face, already twisted by his transformation, instantly turned as black as the bottom of a pot.
Ugly.
This was his greatest trigger.
All his life, he had pursued elegance and style, insisting on maintaining a noble grace even in battle.
This form, born from the pursuit of ultimate power, was the side of himself he was most unwilling to show others, the side he was most ashamed of.
Especially after seeing his opponent’s Dragon Descendant Incarnation, which was so perfect it was practically a work of art!
The direct comparison ignited a flame of rage, born from jealousy and humiliation, that completely incinerated his last shred of sanity.
"You... can... go... die!"
Amidst a hoarse, venomous roar, Jiutiao Mingyou’s massive serpentine body shot forward!
BOOM—!
The ground beneath his feet instantly exploded as he transformed into a black afterimage. Carrying a foul, poisonous wind, he crossed dozens of meters in an instant, his hands—now also transformed into sharp claws—aiming straight for Lin Ye’s heart!
His speed and power were several times greater than before!
A glint of light flashed in Lin Ye’s vertical pupils.
’Interesting.’
He didn’t dodge. He raised his own dragon claw and met the attack head-on!
CLANG!!!
The deafening sound of metal striking metal erupted. A terrifying shockwave spread out in a ring from the two combatants, pulverizing the surrounding rockeries, streams, and cherry blossom trees into dust!
After one blow, they were evenly matched, each sliding back several meters.
Lin Ye felt the force transmitted from his claws and quickly made a judgment.
’In terms of pure strength and speed, without any of my enhancement skills active, he’s almost on par with me.’
’Finally... a decent punching bag has arrived.’
The corners of Lin Ye’s mouth quietly curled up.
The blood in his veins was beginning to truly boil!
"Die!"
His first attack having failed, Jiutiao Mingyou’s assault grew even fiercer. His massive serpent tail, like a black iron whip, tore through the air with a piercing whistle as it swept towards Lin Ye!
At the same time, he opened his cavernous mouth and spat out a stream of dark green, toxic Dragon Breath, sealing off all of Lin Ye’s escape routes!
However, Lin Ye merely had a thought.
[Instant Body]!
His figure vanished in an instant.
The next moment, he had already appeared behind and to the side of Jiutiao Mingyou. His five fingers formed a knife-hand, and with a chop that incorporated martial arts force-generation techniques, he viciously struck at his opponent’s neck!
Jiutiao Mingyou’s combat instincts were equally terrifying. Almost at the same instant Lin Ye disappeared, he forcibly twisted his body, his other claw swiping back at Lin Ye’s head in a strange arc!
SHLICK—!
Lin Ye’s knife-hand sliced open a wound so deep the bone was visible on Jiutiao Mingyou’s neck, sending black scales and flesh flying!
And Jiutiao Mingyou’s claw landed squarely on Lin Ye’s chest!
