Chapter 79: A True Monster
.....
Following the ringing of the most recent system notification, Lucifer clasped his hand onto the dead man's head. Then, with absolute ruthlessness, he absorbed everything that was this man.
Although it wasn't enough to progress his cultivation into the Late Foundation Establishment Realm, it was good enough to instill fear in most of the experts gathered around him.
Thud!
Lucifer threw the dried-up husk to the ground. After which, his predatory gaze flipped between all the loot bags who decided to offer themselves up on a golden platter.
"Say, have any of you ever fought a truly savage beast? I mean, one that knows not how to act in a civil manner…"
As he spoke, his body got into a sprinting position; his legs bent and his upper body bowed low to the ground. Then, with a primitive glint in his gaze and a midget on his back, he pushed forth with all the strength in his legs!
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
Sonic booms erupted from behind his blurred figure as he leaped at the closest Half-Step Nascent Soul Realm Expert!
"S-Stop, you monster-!"
The expert tried to conjure up a Holy Qi Shield so as to protect himself. However, without resistance, the beast smashed through the shield and emerged through its center. Then, with a wide grin on his handsome face, he plunged his right hand into the pit of the man's stomach. Pulling his hand upward, Lucifer simultaneously activated |Sword Slash|.
SPURT!
The Half-Step Nascent Soul Realm Expert had his body torn to shreds!
Following the subsequent destruction of his Core and embryonic Nascent Soul, the man died right then and there!
[Ding! You have killed a Half-Step Nascent Soul Realm Cultivator of the Light Nation. The reward is 0.9 CE²]
"!!!" "!!!"
Under the astonished eyes of Cardinal Ming and the others, Lucifer hesitated not even the slightest bit as he rebounded off of the split open body. Then, with even faster movements than before, he leaped toward the next poor sap!
In the span of a couple milliseconds, and without Cardinal Ming being able to interfere, a beast flashed between the forces of the Light Nation.
Slashing up everything using the epitome of savagery, Lucifer made use of both his appendages and his Low-Sky Rank Sword!
"You really think you can just do as you please without any retaliation!?"
Just as Cardinal Ming was going to discard the possibility of harming his subordinates and strike out at the brazen man, a body was thrown in his direction!
"Ahhh! Cardinal Ming, help meee—!!" The body screamed out while being flung at a speed dozens of times faster than that of sound!
"You bumbling bafoon! What the hell are you doing!?" Cardinal Ming bellowed, his huge spear already aiming to slash open the hindrance!
"Nooo!!!"
SPURT!
The flying man was cleaved in two, and from the fountain of blood that spurted out of his still-alive body, Lucifer slipped under the crimson rain. While dispersing the last of the half-dead man's life, he stretched out his other hand and stabbed the Cardinal with the sharp edge of a blade!
"!!!"
Though it only grazed him and was quickly thwarted, it was still enough to make everyone realize that their Lord could be injured!
"Are we screwed…?" Li Gao asked, his complexion ashen and his body trembling.
"I don't know…" Zhao Huang despondently mumbled, watching as more and more of his fellow organization members got brutally slaughtered.
"A slaughter… This is not a battle, but a slaughter…"
Even the Walking Giant was terrified at what he was witnessing.
With the face of a devil and the bodily movements of a speed demon, Lucifer looked like an evil blur of red and black lights. With a blade in hand and sharp claws, no one was capable of resisting his lethal attacks…
…
After a few more seconds of intense exchanges between Lucifer, Cardinal Ming, and a few hundred high-executives, only Li Gao, Li Chen, Zhao Huang, Cardinal Ming, and 36 others remained.
"In the span of 40 seconds… 90% of the high-officials… They're all dead…" Zhao Huang muttered, his eyes emitting nothing but fear.
"How could this have happened? We were supposed to be an overwhelming force…"
Even Li Gao and Li Chen were in a state of disarray. Completely lost in their own minds, they could do nothing but watch as a monster shredded through their forces like a man stomping on an ant hill…
"Y-You!! How dare you do this!? How dare you!!! Courting Death!!!"
Golden Cardinal Ming was not one to easily lose control over his emotions, but what was happening right now was enough for every ounce of his sense of reason to go up in a puff of smoke!
"Hai… It seems like you're finally ready to take this fight seriously." Lucifer pulled his hands out of the corpse of a Half-Step Nascent Soul Realm Expert. Then, with a savage glow in his blood-red gaze, he honed in on the livid Cardinal. "Time for a little bit of fun."
POW!
Like the shot of a gun, Lucifer vanished from his spot and blazed toward the Cardinal at a speed dozens of times the speed of sound!
"You fucking bastard!!!"
Cardinal Ming heaved his massive spear over his head. Gathering the energy in the surrounding thousand miles, a seething aura erupted from his body and he slashed down with his full might!
He no longer cared about the casualties that would ensue if he went all out!!
He didn't care!!! This monster had to die!!!
"Die!!!"
CRACKA—BOOOOM!
The Cardinal's attack was the signature move of the Ming Duke Household in the Light Nation. With immense control over the ligaments and bones of one's body, the spear would be thrown down at a speed beyond that of recognition!
|Blazing Spear Whirlwind|
RUMBLE!
Slothian City trembled underneath the might of his spear!
This not only effectively alerted the other Nascent Soul Realm Experts in the city, but it also allowed for a sublime intimidation tactic!
However, for Lucifer, when faced up against an attack that extended to the heavens. Well, he saw it as nothing more than the anger-driven fit of a toddler…
