Chapter 107: Burst of Strength
Lu Zheng, Dapo and Adara were walking in the direction of the southern blood moon when strange laughs reached their ears.
"Tehehehe" A bloody red cloud appeared right before them and sitting on it was a horde of beastmen from which dense killing intent oozed out.
"Beasts!?" Adara exclaimed.
"The Beastmen race" Lu Zheng corrected, his expression grim.
The killing intent that rushed out of them could be sensed from miles away.
Beastmen had amazing battle strength both physically and spiritually. Their mastery over soul path was not too inferior to that of the human race.
What was more, Lu Zheng could sense a sinister aura that he could never forget. It was not something he had experienced in this lifetime but in the one before.
"Blood path!"
Soon, blood oozed from the pores of the beastmen before transforming into weapons of all shapes and sizes.
"This is the blood path you were talking about?" Dapo was shocked.
Even at the Acquisition realm, the killing intent that these Void Passage realm beastmen exuded made his entire body tremble involuntarily.
"Tehehe" The beastmen horde jumped from the bloody red cloud and charged at the trio.
"Hmph!" Lu Zheng urged his bloodline power as blazing wheels with sharp edges formed around him.
The Sun Cutting Wheels where like chainsaws as they rode through the midst of the beastmen, cutting them into mincemeat.
"Tehehehe" The beastmen horde did not falter as they continued their charge.
Purple lightning flowed like rivers, electrocuting the beastmen and sending many to early graves.
Dapo was not idle as the halo above him spun at extraordinary rates. Wisps of flames rained from the halo, burning the majority of the beastmen horde.
Attacks rained from the trio upon the beastmen like a one-sided beating but no matter what they did, the beastmen were unending.
Despite being the stronger, the trio were forced to backtrack until they were completely surrounded.
"What… is this?" Adara was perplexed.
"They cultivate blood path. Their regenerative abilities are extremely high" Lu Zheng exclaimed as thunder bombs and flame balls rained from him.
Bone jarring explosions rung through the air as Vermillion True Flame sizzled the flesh of the beastmen.
Those who were burnt died instantly but the horde was too much. They seemed to want to drown the trio.
"It's time to change tactics" Lu Zheng said softly as he urged his bloodline power to its fullest, transforming his body greatly.
Strong winds bellowed from his sleeves as Fire and Lightning Dragons roared into existence.
Beastmen died in droves under Lu Zheng's attacks as the pale white tornado Lu Zheng had created turned bloody red.
Hundreds of eastern dragons flew through the air, attacking beastmen randomly.
A figure made entirely out of blue lightning jumped out of Lu Zheng before joining the fray.
Lu Zheng swung Mei Luan as fire path and ice path techniques were launched from her.
"How can a junior be so strong?" Adara mumbled.
Even though she could kill ten beastmen with the same amount of effort it took Lu Zheng to kill two, he still deserved her admiration.
If only Adara knew that Lu Zheng used soul path abilities to divide his soul consciousness to control all of his techniques and employed space path techniques to transfer Qi into the hundreds of Fire and Lightning Dragons mid-air.
Lu Zheng was able to use all of his paths in perfect harmony by relying on Xue Ritian's battle experience. This was the experience accumulated after over ten million years!
Lu Zheng's burst of strength slayed many beastmen but soon he had to stop. His Qi had fallen dangerously as his Qi leaves shrivelled up.
"Let me handle this" Dapo smiled as his halo spun at inconceivable speeds. Every second, the halo would rotate hundreds of times that one would think it was not even moving at all.
The halo slowly began to change colour like a blot of red ink was spreading all over it. The crimson red colour spread till the golden halo became entirely red.
Instantly, Lu Zheng felt Dapo's aura triple in strength.
His black hair floated, revealing his eyes.
Dapo's eyes were like firestones with blazing flames burning inside them. Wherever he looked, red flames would burn, roasting the beastmen alive.
The sea of beastmen died out and was replaced by burning red flames.
Dapo straightened his back as his aura sunk to the very bottom: "I still haven't perfected it"
Adara started to say something but was interrupted by the sound of clapping.
Lu Zheng felt his hair stand on their ends as alarm bells rung in his mind. Without even knowing the source of the clapping, he knew the person would be very strong.
A handsome man with square-shaped pupils appeared before the trio, walking through the sea of flames calmly like it was nothing.
What was most unique about the man was that he was extremely tall, towering at about eight feet.
"That was an incredible display. Who knows, perhaps… you can set me free" After saying this much, the man waved his sleeves and blood flew out binding the three. A red cloud appeared which carried the man away with them.
