Chapter 592: Chen Chu: "I Feel Like I Can Go Another Round" (II)

Boom!

High in the sky, a human king’s law-imbued form was shattered halfway, crashing to the ground like a meteor.

Boom!

The impact obliterated several kilometers of terrain, sending debris flying into the air. The destructive power of laws unleashed an energy shockwave that swept across more than ten kilometers.

Boom!

Amid the terrifying energy tremors, a voice called out. "Old Ye, are you alright?"

"I’m fine. Just lost some law origins," came a defiant reply. A figure cloaked in swirling laws shot skyward, howling with determination.

However, the king’s aura was noticeably weaker by a tenth after being attacked from both sides by the two demon kings. Still, he stood fearless.

Slaying a mythical-level powerhouse was no simple task. Unless one wielded overwhelming might to obliterate both their divine soul and the origin of their laws in a single strike, such battles could only be drawn out in an arduous war of attrition.

Roar!

Surrounded by a blood-red aura spanning dozens of kilometers, Mech No.1 advanced with an unstoppable presence, consuming everything in its path. Each of its steps shook the ground with a thunderous impact.

From No.1's eyes, beams of super-energy shot out continuously, annihilating everything in their trajectory. Not even the two demon kings could halt its advance; a golden-yellow, diamond-shaped halo flickered around No.1, forming an impenetrable spatial barrier that blocked every incoming attack.

Boom!

In the distance, the energy shield of an orbital battleship shattered, engulfing parts of the ship in raging flames. At the same time, a demon king’s fortress crumbled, half of it collapsing into ruins.

In the skies, fighter jets burned like falling stars, crashing alongside the lifeless bodies of mutated flying beasts. On the ground, missile and artillery explosions lit up the battlefield, their deafening roars reverberating through the heavens.

Amid the chaos of a thousand-kilometer-long frontline, the spectacle surrounding No.1, though immense, seemed almost insignificant.

Suddenly, a synthetic voice echoed in No.1’s cockpit.

[Notification from central command: All units are to cease pursuit and avoid advancing recklessly. Fall back to military fortifications and engage the Purgatory alien forces cautiously.]

[Major General Luo Fei, the mission plan has changed. Do not proceed into the rear territory of the Purgatory Clan.]

The abrupt message caused Luo Fei’s emotionless gaze to flicker slightly. At once, No.1’s movements came to a halt, the ground trembling beneath its last step.

On a transparent display, a glaring red alert flashed repeatedly, indicating that Luo Fei’s synchronization rate with No.1 had reached 98%.

The young woman steadied her breathing and murmured softly. "Almost at full synchronization..."

Feeling the immense power of No.1, which had devoured the lives and souls of tens of thousands of high-level alien beings and mutated beasts, Luo Fei remained silent for a moment.

Boom! Boom!

Twin beams of devastating super-energy shot from No.1’s eyes, obliterating everything in their path. Explosions erupted, and dirt and rocks melted into lava within moments, forcing the two demon kings into retreat.

Meanwhile, at Battlefield Three, the three human legions, having just broken through the enemy’s defenses, also received central command’s orders. Despite chasing the enemy for over two hundred kilometers, the pursuing forces came to an abrupt stop.

This included Chen Chu, who had just annihilated a retreating alien battalion of over a thousand soldiers too slow to escape. Standing atop a colossal, shattered corpse amid an infernal sea of blood, he held his halberd and gazed into the distant, endless night sky. "A change in plans?"

The order conflicted with the original battle strategy.

Initially, the plan was for Battlefield Three to pierce through the enemy line, with the three legions—led by Chen Chu, and supported by two kings and Qingqiu Tianyao—to sweep across the flank and encircle the central battlefield from the rear.

To achieve this, humanity had reinforced the operation with four kings, a powerful warrior who had touched the threshold of king-level strength after over a decade of secluded cultivation in ancient ruins, and his peak mythical beast companion. Even Heavenly King Zhenwu, who had been in seclusion, was roused.

Looking toward the alien forces retreating into the demonic-qi-shrouded mountain range, Chen Chu turned to leave. He had no intention of playing the hero and disobeying orders in such a large-scale battle.

Yet as he turned, his gaze fell upon a battle raging in the skies over a hundred kilometers behind him. There, two human kings were locked in a fierce struggle against two demon kings.

Chen Chu’s eyes gleamed subtly. Although he hadn’t intended to involve himself in a king-level confrontation, with the mission shifting to defense, he realized it was a prime opportunity to earn more merit.

Boom!

With a burst of power, Chen Chu tore through the air, transforming into a streak of blood-red light.

As he flew toward the battlefield behind him...

On a distant mountain peak near the Ice Crystal Shrine, a red colossal beast and the Single-Horned Kun hovered amid a lingering thunderstorm, curiously observing from afar.

There, a massive black-and-red beast extended its right claw, gripping a dorsal fin over thirty meters long and ten meters thick at its widest point. Its muscles bulged, and its scales lifted as the claw swelled with immense force.

Boom!

Even without the augmentation of the power of laws, the Thunder Fiery Demonic Dragon unleashed nearly all of its natural strength to snap off the black-and-red dorsal fin’s sharp tip.

The sudden action startled the Kun and red beast, while the Little Purple Dragon leaped into the air in fright, swinging its tail and crying out in shock.

Eeya!?

Squeak! Squeak! Squeak! Thunder Fiery, what are you doing?

Even the Kun seemed bewildered, unsure why it had abruptly chosen to harm itself.

The black-and-red beast slightly opened its mouth, exhaling scorching waves of air as it let out a low growl.

Roar! It's nothing. I'm just preparing to craft a missile.

Boom!

Black lightning brimming with a destructive aura coursed over the beast’s right claw. Golden light flickered across its scales, blending with streams of chaotic dark energy to enshroud the sharp tip.

Under the infusion of high-level laws of destruction, Vajra, and chaotic dark force, the black-and-red spike radiated terrifying energy fluctuations, resembling a super-nuclear bomb on the verge of detonation.

At the same time, the heavens erupted once more with the fury of thunderbolts.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Purple lightning crackled and roared across the sea of clouds, cascading toward the Demonic Dragon.

Meanwhile, clusters of sharp dorsal fins along the dragon’s back began to glow one by one. Streaks of blue-black thunderbolts exploded outward, forming a thousand-meter-wide barrier.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

As the endless thunderbolts converged, a massive electromagnetic field took shape around the mountain’s peak, enveloping the Demonic Dragon. Ahead of it, rings of thunderbolts materialized once more, pulsating with raw energy.

At the center of these halos was the black-and-red spike, thirty meters long and imbued with the power of laws.

As the electromagnetic field compressed and condensed, the surface of the spike heated rapidly, glowing a blinding red. The surrounding space trembled, cracked, and showed signs of collapse, unable to bear its energy.

Just as the Demonic Dragon finished its preparations, Chen Chu, flying at ten times the speed of sound, traversed several hundred kilometers and appeared tens of thousands of meters above the initial battlefield.

Gazing at the four majestic figures locked in combat in the skies above, Chen Chu suddenly shouted, "King Ling, I feel like I can fire off another round!"

Chen Chu’s declaration caused the warring kings to pause momentarily.

The two demon kings, in particular, sensed Chen Chu’s aura, which had been steadily recovering amid his relentless slaughter, now reaching 60% of its peak. Their expressions instantly darkened.
