Chapter 547 - A Bold Idea

Faido bristled. His four Divine Kings had accompanied him for many years. They weren’t just underlings but his brethren, yet Han Wu and the Origin of Mutation had slain one of them.

Pain clenched Faido’s heart, but rules were rules. No matter how much he wanted to save them, he couldn’t afford to break them. Even if all four Divine Kings were slain here, he would have to swallow his anger and wait for the death match to conclude before seeking revenge.

Aisha was surprised as she witnessed how easily Han Wu and the Origin of Mutation killed Dancing Flames. She was there to support Han Wu, but she never expected such a display. An ally that could not only provide rare materials but was also powerful was exactly what she needed to solidify her position. Her regard for Han Wu rose another notch, and she silently acknowledged him as a strategic partner.

The lecturers and students from Imperial College stood stunned, including Xu Hai, who questioned himself,

When did I manage to raise such a monstrously talented student?

Han Wu’s ascension into a Major God at such a young age had already astonished him, yet this level of strength surpassed even that.

Xu Hai felt as though his understanding of the world was slipping away. If this continued, Han Wu would definitely become a God King. The prospect pleased him, but it also pressured him. It was time for him to work hard. He had been a Major God for so many years, and the thought of being surpassed by his own student was embarrassing. He swore that he would enter seclusion once this ended. This time, he wouldn’t emerge until he ascended into a God King!

The Blood Coliseum’s staff and management were equally shaken. They saw how powerful Han Wu was, and that sight made them feel safe, just as they had when the previous owner was still alive. He had managed to evoke that long-lost sense of security back from the depths of their hearts.

With Dancing Flames’ death, the other three Heavenrender life forms in their respective rings lost their patience. They now had to fight three against five. If they didn’t do anything, they would get beaten to death in a team fight. The situation would turn ugly very quickly.

These veterans, who had won tens of thousands of matches and possessed vast experience, reacted at once. They left their rings and rushed toward the other three Blood Heavenrender life forms. For the moment, they chose to ignore Han Wu and the Origin of Mutation. They could not discern what powers those two possessed, and engaging them risked getting caught off guard and killed.

Han Wu was under pressure as well. He needed to kill the remaining three as fast as possible, but the Origin of Mutation stopped him and looked at Dancing Flames’ corpse with interest.

Although Dancing Flames’ performance in their fight had been unremarkable, or rather, he didn’t even get to use half of his strength, he was still a Heavenrender life form. His corpse, down to every last feather, held immense value.

“Vessel, I have a bold idea!” the Origin of Mutation exclaimed.

Han Wu looked at it and understood its intent at once, but he hesitated.

“You want to graft Dancing Flames’ vital organs onto my body?” Han Wu asked tentatively, even though he already knew the answer.

The Origin of Mutation nodded, then shook its head. “Simple grafting will not let us draw out the corpse’s true strength. I want to change your race too! The feathers will increase your Fire Energy absorption rate. The heart will act as a massive reservoir, allowing you to store huge amounts of Fire Energy. The talons carry strong destructive powers. The—

“Anyway, if I use Life Creation, I can guarantee that you will no longer need Replicate to reach the Heavenrender rank once everything is over.”

Han Wu had to seriously contemplate this. It was tempting, but that was it. He knew that if he accepted the Origin of Mutation’s suggestion, his strength would soar to new heights through the integration of Dancing Flames’ organs.

Nonetheless, the cost was too high. A racial change at this stage would turn him into a hybrid phoenix and God. This wasn’t the same as when he used Black Dragon King Transformation or Demon King Transformation. This change would affect his divine realm and core race as well. No one could tell what would happen to them. After weighing the risks, he declined.

The Origin of Mutation sighed. “Since you refuse, then I won’t hold back. A Heavenrender corpse can increase my own powers by a huge margin!”

Han Wu felt a pang of regret, but he did agree to the request. He guarded the Origin of Mutation while it used its abilities to graft the organs and limbs onto itself.

When the process ended, the Origin of Mutation looked like a monster. The phoenix genes had granted it the fire attribute, and potent Fire Energy coursed through its body. The limbs that clashed with Fire Energy either changed attributes or withered away. Overall, the Origin of Mutation had grown far stronger.

Faido witnessed the entire scene and clenched his fist hard. His fury erupted as an overwhelming pressure that spread in all directions. The weaker Sage life forms at his side bled from their orifices under this dominating pressure. Even so, they remained perfectly still, standing upright without resistance. Their immobility spoke volumes about the fear and reverence he inspired.

The pressure spread to the Blood Coliseum’s side as well, striking hardest at the weaker students. Many trembled uncontrollably, and blood oozed out from their orifices.

The lecturers from Imperial College quickly used their Divine Authorities to push back. Unfortunately, they were only Major Gods. How could they rival Faido? At most, they managed to push it back a little and ease the students’ suffering.

Xu Hai snarled, “Lord Faido, are you waging war against Imperial College?”

Faido ignored him and kept his focus on the death match broadcast.

Some of the students couldn’t endure the pressure and fainted. The lecturers hurried to evacuate them to safety.

The Blood Coliseum’s staff faced the same ordeal. Even though the executives had activated the barrier around the Blood Coliseum, it still couldn’t completely negate Faido’s pressure.

This was no accident. Faido was releasing his aura deliberately, using his rage to attack them.

At that moment, a golden light swept across the coliseum and solidified into a barrier that shielded everyone from the Blood Coliseum. A sense of lightness spread through their bodies as the crushing pressure dissipated.

Aisha’s soft voice echoed through the space. “Faido, don’t you think this behavior is unbefitting of a gentleman?”

Realizing that Aisha had intervened, Faido withdrew his aura with a scoff. “

Hmph

, you bird bastard. I will kill you if you interrupt me again.”

Aisha’s grin turned cold. It had been so many years since anyone had called her that. “The Angel Civilization fears no one. Beast King Faido, apologize, or face the judgement of the angels.”
