Chapter 601: Chapter 248: Fierce Beast Duel, Absolute Crushing
"ROAR—!!!"
Amidst howls of agony and madness, Kujo Akiyoshi’s body began a second, even uglier and more deformed, mutation!
His body swelled in size again, shooting past four meters tall!
Twisted bat-like wings sprouted from his back, hard carapaces covered his arms, and a vicious wolf’s head even grew from the tip of his serpentine tail!
His body had become an unspeakable amalgamation, a fusion of countless demonic features!
In the live stream, countless viewers felt a wave of visceral revulsion at the sight.
"Blegh... I can’t take it, that’s too disgusting!"
"What the fuck is that thing? Some kind of evil god?"
"He’s completely thrown away his humanity just to win, huh?"
But on the battlefield, this hideous form brought an explosive increase in power!
BOOM!
Kujo Akiyoshi’s figure vanished once more!
This time, he was so fast that even Lin Ye’s dynamic vision could barely keep up!
SHLICK—!
Lin Ye felt a sharp pain in his chest as a colossal force sent him flying backward uncontrollably.
He looked down.
A claw mark, deep enough to expose bone, had been gouged into his supposedly indestructible dragon scales!
Trickles of blood, shimmering with golden motes of light, slowly seeped from the wound.
This was the first time he had been injured since entering his P4 stage!
"Ghehehehe..."
In the distance, Kujo Akiyoshi, now a complete monster, let out an inhuman cackle.
His scarlet, serpentine eyes were locked onto the golden blood flowing from Lin Ye’s wound, as if he had just smelled the most delicious delicacy in the world, driving him into an even greater frenzy.
What little sanity he had left seemed to have been completely eroded by this power.
"To win, Kujo Akiyoshi has already given up control over his own bloodline," Dong Dongchen said with a grave expression. "He’s being devoured by his own power, turning into a beast that knows only slaughter. Lin Ye, on the other hand, has been frighteningly calm from start to finish."
"This is the proper mindset for a Martial Artist with Ancestral Spirituality."
"Power should be a tool for man to wield, not a master that controls him."
But the live stream comments were filled with anxiety.
"That makes sense in theory, but the situation looks bad right now!"
"It looks like God Ye... can’t win?"
"He’s completely overwhelmed in terms of speed and strength!"
Seeing the screen flooded with worried comments, Dong Dongchen revealed a mysterious smile.
"Don’t be hasty."
"Knowing him, he definitely has more cards up his sleeve."
"I even get the feeling that he didn’t come online this time to climb the ranks at all. He was purely looking for a punching bag to get used to his new Ancestral Spirituality."
"Haven’t you noticed? From the start of the fight until now, besides Instant Body and his gravity ability, he hasn’t used a single one of the dazzling array of techniques he’s shown off before."
"Don’t let him fool you. That guy... he’s probably still holding an ace in the hole."
The moment Dong Dongchen’s voice fell!
A deafening roar suddenly erupted on the field!
A massive figure, like a downed fighter jet, plummeted from the sky and slammed violently into the ground, kicking up a huge cloud of dust and debris!
In the depths of the crater lay the twisted, ugly body of the monster, four horrific claw marks on its back that had nearly torn its entire torso apart!
And in the sky above him...
Lin Ye hovered silently.
The aura radiating from him was more than twice as ferocious as before!
[Frenzy], activated!
His already terrifying stats doubled once again!
The gap in their strength and speed was instantly widened again, and... it was now a complete rout!
Kujo Akiyoshi struggled to his feet, his mind, now consumed by madness and bloodlust, clearly unable to comprehend why his prey’s power had suddenly surged to such an absurd level.
But his bestial instincts drove him to attack once more!
The bat wings on his back beat powerfully, and his entire body transformed into a black bolt of lightning, lunging at Lin Ye again!
This time, however, Lin Ye didn’t even bother to dodge.
He simply raised his dragon claw slowly. The moment the black lightning was about to reach him, his claw shot out, striking second but landing first to grab Kujo Akiyoshi by the head!
BANG—!
Kujo Akiyoshi’s forward momentum was brought to a dead stop!
In the face of such pure, overwhelming power, all skill and speed seemed pale and insignificant.
Lin Ye, still gripping his opponent’s head, flexed the muscles in his arm and, as if throwing a sack of trash, slammed him viciously into the ground!
RUMBLE!!!
The earth cracked once more, and an even larger crater appeared!
Lin Ye seemed to have lost interest in his "sparring partner." This battle could no longer offer him any effective training.
’It’s time to end this.’
He released his grip, letting Kujo Akiyoshi’s body fall, while he himself transformed into a streak of golden light, diving right after him!
With [Frenzy] active, Lin Ye had become the ultimate killing machine. Every one of his attacks landed on Kujo Akiyoshi’s body with unstoppable force.
The sickening CRUNCH of shattering bone and the wet thuds of mangled flesh echoed endlessly.
Kujo Akiyoshi’s prized regenerative ability had become a joke.
The moment a wound appeared, it was torn open and widened by the next, even more ferocious, attack!
"Awooo... Ugh, AAAAAH!"
Agonized screams poured ceaselessly from the monster’s mouth.
Finally, just as Lin Ye’s knee strike completely shattered Kujo Akiyoshi’s sternum and he prepared to pierce his heart with his claws to send the man from East Japan on his way...
Something changed in an instant!
He suddenly heard a terrifying, inhuman noise coming from Kujo Akiyoshi’s mouth—a shriek so sharp it could pierce eardrums.
Lin Ye’s brow furrowed. He instinctively retreated to observe what would happen next.
He watched as Kujo Akiyoshi, lying in a pool of blood, saw his scarlet, serpentine eyes suddenly roll back, showing only the whites. His body, like a balloon, began to inflate wildly once again!
SQUELCH!
SQUELCH!
Before the horrified eyes of countless viewers, two more vicious and enormous snake heads brutally tore their way out from the flesh on either side of his neck!
All three snake heads tilted toward the sky and let out a silent roar!
Watching this scene, the expression on Dong Dongchen’s face instantly shifted to one of stunned disbelief.
"He’s..."
"His Spirituality has run rampant!"
