Chapter 25 - Shi Hu kills Pseudo-Saint King

As soon as the words fell, Shi Hu, who initially looked like a human-sized shadow, began to grow at an extremely frightening speed, until he finally transformed into an imposing shadowy figure vaguely reminiscent of a tita, over ten meters tall

This is the true Shadow Demon Body!

Ever since he was summoned by Song Yang, he has chosen to maintain a human form purely for convenience, especially to stay close to Song Yang, but his true form is that of a giant dark monster.

Only in this form can Shi Hu exert his true strength.

At that moment, Murong Haojun, who was still being held by Shi Hu in one hand, looked so small compared to that gigantic hand.

Seeing the energy of the fist about to hit him, Shi Hu let out a roar and retaliated with a punch. Although the punch seemed casual, as well as containing the law of darkness, it also embodied the fifth layer of the fist's intent.

Shi Hu's understanding of fist intent had indeed reached the fifth layer of fist intent!

What's more, compared to Lu Fangran, who had contained his aura as much as possible to avoid destroying the surrounding environment, Shi Hu was the complete opposite; he released his holy aura completely, letting it spread in all directions.

If the Imperial Formation hadn't been activated in time, I'm afraid that just Shi Hu's roar in his true demonic form would have been able to destroy a large part of the dynastic capital.

Finally, Shi Hu's huge fist and Lu Fangran's small fist finally collided, and the resulting explosion of energy turned several blocks of the capital into dust.

As expected, as soon as the two fists collided, Lu Fangran was immediately thrown flying and finally fell to the ground hundreds of meters away, and couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood again.

The majestic pseudo-saint king was seriously injured by just one punch from Shi Hu.

Not just him, after Lu Fangran was punched and seriously injured, the entire royal army couldn't help but spit blood too.

Because with that punch the connection of the entire Imperial Guard formation was instantly destroyed, leaving more than half the army seriously injured by the reaction.

Although Shi Hu's cultivation is only half a step up from the Saint King, don't forget that he is a demon of the shadows.

Only his demonic physique is comparable to that of a true Saint King, not to mention that Shi Hu used the fifth layer of fist intent.

In this fight, Lu Fangran was completely crushed by Shi Hu.

"You can die now," said Shi Hu coldly, looking at the seriously injured Lu Fangran.

Lu Fangran, who was seriously injured, trembled when he heard Shi Hu's cold voice, sensing his terrifying murderous intent. 

It seemed that Shi Hu was really going to kill him!

Faced with his current situation, Lu Fangran couldn't help but smile helplessly. Only moments ago, he was confident, talking about showing the world his true power.

However, in the blink of an eye, Shi Hu was transformed into a terrifying giant that he had never seen before in his thousand years of life, despite having read practically every ancient book recorded in the royal library. 

Before he could finally react to Shi Hu's transformation, their punches collided and he was thrown flying, seriously injured.

Thinking that he was about to be killed, Lu Fangran couldn't help but sigh. 

He wouldn't beg Shi Hu to spare him. For him, even in this situation, he still retained his dignity and pride; he would rather die than kneel and beg for his life in front of his enemy, in front of the capital he had always protected for over two thousand years

When he realized that Lu Fangran didn't beg even under these circumstances, even Shi Hu couldn't help but admire him a little, although most people would probably consider Lu Fangran's decision to be rather foolish.

After all, that's human nature: when your life is on the line, what's the point of maintaining your dignity? Especially in a world like this, where the strong devour the weak.

Of course, although Shi Hu admires him a little, that won't stop him from killing him. After all, who allowed him to dare stand in his way?

Then Shi Hu raised his fist and threw another punch towards the seriously injured Lu Fangran.

"This person is crazy? He dares to kill the commander of the imperial guard in front of the whole city?"

"That's practically a slap in the face for the Bihai Dynasty."

Although many people in the darkness thought this, no one would step forward to try to stop him.

No kidding, even Lu Fangran, who had reached the pseudo-Saint King realm, was no match for this person. How could a small royal or holy kingdom of one or two stars dare to face such an existence?

Just a single breath from this dark giant could probably turn them into ashes. If it weren't for the protection of the imperial formation, they wouldn't even dare to get so close to the battle.

Besides, if the Bihai Dynasty loses face, that's the royal family's problem; what do these little informants from other forces have to do with it?

But as they looked at this monstrous giant, they couldn't help thinking: 'I'm afraid that only if the ancestor presents himself in person will he be able to suppress it.

Sure enough, just as the fist was about to strike Lu Fangran, a hoarse old voice sounded:

"Stop."

It was just a simple word, but charged with a terrifying aura that turned practically every cultivator in the city into a statue.

Faced with such an aura, even the saints could barely move!

Even though he was the person who could withstand this aura the most, Shi Hu was undeterred and finally landed the fatal punch on Lu Fangran.

Lu Fangran dead!

After killing Lu Fangran, Shi Hu turned his gaze to the old man who had appeared in the sky at that moment, and sneered:

"Just because you said I should stop?"

"He dared to get in my way, so he must die!"

"Even you, if you dare to stand in my way, will also die."
