Chapter 397
Bloody Street Fight
The two most formidable individuals in the East City District, who ranked among the top ten super powerhouses in this city, met on this dimly lit street. Typically, the most elite super powerhouses strive to accumulate as many points as possible, only engaging in life-and-death battles with experts of their caliber once they have amassed a significant amount. Because with enough points, even if they die, losing half their points, they can still rank among the top 1001.
“Now?” Demon Hammer stared at Luo Feng.
“Yes.” Luo Feng nodded. “Now!”
“Haha, then I’ll have to see just how strong this ‘Madman’ is, the one who strikes fear into countless geniuses.” There was a wild glint in Demon Hammer’s vertical eye.
Luo Feng floated half a meter off the ground, a Duntiansuo automatically appearing beneath his feet.
On the street, the two stood facing each other from a distance.
“Boom!” Demon Hammer’s right leg stomped heavily on the ground, instantly cracking the street. His body flickered, and he lunged in front of Luo Feng, his four arms each wielding a sharp-edged black hammer, striking at Luo Feng like lightning.
Luo Feng’s body drifted backward. Simultaneously, a golden light shot out from the Duntiansuo beneath his feet, transforming directly into a golden fish.
“Go!” Luo Feng’s gaze sharpened.
The golden fish swam cheerfully towards Demon Hammer, making Demon Hammer’s pupils contract in secret alarm: “This madman’s control over his psychic weapon has reached such a perfect level. It’s clearly made of combined blades, yet it moves like a real fish, without even a hint of killing intent.”
Thud! Thud! Thud! Thud! Thud! Thud! Thud! Thud!
A series of impacts. Under the dance of his four arms, the four black hammers alternated, forming a nearly perfect defense, blocking the golden fish again and again.
“Haha, Madman, is that all you’ve got?”
Rumble~~~ A thick, black current of energy enveloped Demon Hammer, instantly plunging the surrounding hundred-meter radius into a domain of black energy. Luo Feng could feel the profound weight and killing intent contained within this black current. Surrounded by the energy, the black hammers in Demon Hammer’s four arms received a boost, their speed soaring. Each strike was faster! Heavier!
Black hammers whirled! The golden fish constantly dodged, trying to break through the black hammer’s defensive layer.
“Crack!” The golden fish dodged, and a black hammer smashed into a nearby alloy lamppost. The thick lamppost was instantly dented and bent.
“Boom!”
A single hammer strike cracked the street, revealing a crater, and shattered stones flew in all directions faster than sniper bullets.
Hammers danced! Swift as lightning! Heavy as mountains!
“Clang!”
Finally, the golden fish was directly sent flying backward by a hammer strike, the golden threads on its surface trembling as if on the verge of collapse.
“Haha, Madman, is that all you have? Don’t think I can’t catch you just because you’re standing on a psychic weapon.” A strange disc suddenly appeared beneath Demon Hammer’s feet, and he swiftly flew towards Luo Feng. “Our physical qualities are the same, and my psychic energy is no weaker than yours.”
Aided by his domain, Demon Hammer lunged directly at Luo Feng.
Luo Feng, however, revealed a faint smile: “Demon Hammer, you live up to your name!”
The Dark Galaro race was originally a highly renowned race within the Ganwu Universe Nation. Members of the Dark Galaro race could become ‘Universe-level’ upon reaching adulthood, and as darlings of the earth, over ninety percent of the entire Dark Galaro race comprehended earth-attribute domains, and even laws.
The profound weight of Demon Hammer’s black domain was, in fact, a characteristic of an earth-attribute domain.
“Boom!” Golden light erupted violently around Luo Feng’s body, and a sharp, fierce golden current swiftly enveloped the surroundings, forcing back the previous black current.
“Hmm?” Demon Hammer stopped mid-air.
“Demon Hammer, you are the first opponent in this city to make me unleash my domain in battle.” Luo Feng grinned.
Demon Hammer’s pupils contracted. This madman in front of him was too arrogant; he hadn’t even used his domain until now.
“Even with a domain, you’ll still die!” Enveloped in black energy, the four-armed, one-eyed Dark Galaro genius—Demon Hammer—lunged directly at Luo Feng like a demon god. The four black hammers in his hands instantly transformed into a continuous blur of shadows, as if countless stones were wildly tumbling down during a mountain collapse!
Enveloped by the golden current, the golden fish became instantly more agile and swift, as if it had moved from land into water.
This domain gave it power.
The Duntiansuo was originally primarily gold-attributed, subtly containing a trace of the spatial origin law. Under Luo Feng’s gold domain, it moved like a fish in water.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
The golden fish charged at Demon Hammer again and again. Demon Hammer frantically swung his four black hammers, trying to smash the golden fish away, but… now the golden fish was significantly more agile and much more powerful. Forget about attacking; just defending against this slippery fish was extremely difficult.
“Arghhhhhh!!!!!!” Demon Hammer couldn’t help but let out a low roar, his single eye fixed on the golden fish before him.
The fish flicked its tail, swiftly cutting an S-shaped trajectory and stabbing towards Demon Hammer.
“Clang!” Demon Hammer blocked it again.
“Clang!” “Clang!” “Clang!” “Clang!”…
Demon Hammer desperately defended, beads of sweat trickling down his forehead.
From a distance, Luo Feng sighed inwardly: “I’ve used my domain, willpower, and profound laws to their fullest, and the Duntiansuo’s power has reached its peak. Yet, I still can’t directly kill this Demon Hammer.”
Demon Hammer’s strength was indeed formidable, with his four hammers striking in succession, combined with his powerful domain.
When attacking, each hammer strike was astonishingly heavy.
When defending, it was equally perfect.
“To defeat him instantly, I’ll have to use the Yan Shen Weapon.” Luo Feng thought to himself. The Duntiansuo couldn’t unleash his full power, but the Yan Shen Weapon… that was his strongest killing move.
“This madman is terrifying. I’ve encountered thousands of mental-force masters, but none have such terrifying control over psychic weapons. His ‘golden fish’ is incredibly agile during an attack, just like a normal fish, its trajectory unpredictable. Its power is completely undetectable until it erupts, and once it does, its might is astonishing.” Demon Hammer thought to himself.
The control of the Swordfish Array had indeed reached a level of complete mastery, allowing it to unleash its power at will, or conceal every trace of energy if not desired.
…
Under Luo Feng’s repeated attacks with the golden fish, Demon Hammer’s defense grew increasingly strained.
Prolonged defense inevitably leads to defeat!
After gritting his teeth and desperately blocking 106 consecutive attacks, his mental state began to decline. The golden fish suddenly zipped past a black hammer and stabbed directly at him, startling the Dark Galaro genius. Another black hammer on his remaining arm desperately tried to protect him.
“Pfft!” The golden fish fiercely sliced into one of his arms. Containing traces of the gold origin law, the fish was incredibly sharp, cutting directly through the energy battle armor and passing right through!
Snap!
A severed arm, still clutching a black hammer, fell to the ground.
“Arghhhhh!!!!” The one-armed Demon Hammer roared in fury, his three remaining arms each gripping a black hammer, charging madly at Luo Feng.
“I am a mental-force master; I won’t engage you in close combat.”
Luo Feng, standing on his Duntiansuo, swiftly ascended again to dodge, controlling the golden fish to attack.
A mental-force master engaging in close combat? Is he crazy?
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
With one arm severed and his defense significantly weakened, the Dark Galaro genius ‘Demon Hammer’ was destined to be unable to turn the tide. Knowing his fate, ‘Demon Hammer’ began to frantically try and kill Luo Feng, but was blocked by the golden fish.
“Arghhh!!!” Demon Hammer roared.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
His three black hammers wildly swung, denting and bending nearby alloy lampposts, cracking the walls of some roadside buildings, revealing the alloy structures within, and sending glass shards flying everywhere.
However, a person’s frenzied excitement can only sustain a momentary burst of power.
“Pfft!”
The golden fish shot directly through a gap between two black hammers, then pierced Demon Hammer’s single eye on his face, penetrating his skull!
Silence!
Luo Feng slowly descended, landing on the street, while the golden fish flew back and merged into the Duntiansuo.
“Thud!” Demon Hammer’s tall body slowly toppled, his black hammers also crashing onto the street, creating a resounding noise.
Looking at the corpse of the Dark Galaro genius before him, Luo Feng secretly let out a breath: “This Demon Hammer is even a bit stronger than Big Brother.”
His intuition told him…
This Demon Hammer should be at Domain Level Eight! The Dark Galaro race itself is a darling of the earth, just as the ‘Golden Horned Beast’ is a darling of the gold origin of the universe. And this Demon Hammer had cultivated for hundreds of years, under the guidance of his clan’s elders, and as a genius within his clan, reaching Domain Level Eight was not surprising.
Therefore…
Without using the Yan Shen Weapon, Luo Feng had already given his all.
…
On the street.
Standing beside Demon Hammer’s corpse, Luo Feng adjusted himself for a moment before lowering his gaze to the screen on his wrist.
The screen had changed.
Participant: Luo Feng (Black Dragon Mountain Empire)
Points: 6,129,030
Ranking: 191
“This Demon Hammer truly lives up to his reputation as a super powerhouse in this city, and he’s been around since the beginning. After all this time, he had far more points than me.” Luo Feng thought to himself. Killing one Demon Hammer added three million points to his score, meaning Demon Hammer’s own points must have been around six million.
Truly a genius at Domain Level Eight!
“Excellent.” Luo Feng showed a faint smile. Killing one Demon Hammer was more profitable than killing thousands of other genius experts before.
“Hmm?” Luo Feng’s heart trembled, and he abruptly turned his head to look at a residential building nearby.
On the rooftop of the adjacent residential building stood a figure—a handsome young man with green battle robes and long green hair, looking down at Luo Feng on the street below.
“Someone was this close to me, and I didn’t even notice.” A cold sweat broke out on Luo Feng’s back.
“Madman, you truly are a madman.”
A clear voice drifted down. The handsome green-haired youth stood on the residential building’s rooftop and smiled, “To think you could kill Demon Hammer. Even if I were to kill him, it would take considerable effort. Now, in this East City District, you, Madman, are the number one expert. I truly wish to fight you right now.”
Luo Feng’s pupils contracted. A name flashed in his mind, and he exclaimed, “You are… Feng Lun?”
Feng Lun…
Among the city’s recognized top ten geniuses, if the Madman was a recently risen, formidable individual, then ‘Feng Lun’ represented a terrifying, almost invincible figure throughout the city. He enjoyed roaming all over the city, specifically targeting true experts, and every time he made a move, he succeeded.
“My points aren’t enough yet! On the last day, I’ll come find you, and we’ll have our battle!” The handsome youth smiled, then transformed into a streak of green light, instantly vanishing into the depths of the night.
