Legend of the Mythological Genes
Chapter 280 - No Room For Retreat
Translator: Lordbluefire Editor: Lordbluefire
The king’s gaze was as sharp as word, capable of slicing flesh.
The throne that was made from crystal had a monster completely clad in armor sitting on it. This monster seemed to have just awakened and was staring down imperiously at Feng Lin.
This king of the Zheng Clan was like the asura king of the legends: born in the blood sea, bloodthirsty nature, aura as deep as the abyss, and pressure as heavy as Mt. Tai.
Feng Lin’s team of three was instantly affected. Their bodies trembled from the weight of the pressure.
(What a terrifying vitality stat. It is definitely above 3,000!)
Even Feng Lin, who had the highest vitality stat among the three of them, was trembling. His vitality stat wasn’t even ⅓ of this monster’s.
Regardless of their bodies or mental state, both were under great pressure.
“Act now, we cannot hold back! Let’s eat the spirit explosion pill and unleash our full strength!” Feng Lin knew that they couldn’t hold back. He instantly made a judgment.
Although the disparity was great, they couldn’t feel fear now.
If they continued waiting under such great pressure, they would lose their confidence to resist sooner or later.
Yi and Su Li also understood this. They took out the silver medical bottles and swallowed the medicine in there with no hesitation.
The moment the genetic potion entered their mouth, it instantly transformed into a spicy warmth that flooded their entire body. Their throats burned as the potion flowed into their stomachs. Every inch of their bodies was in pain. It felt like there was a fire burning them from within.
The spirit explosion medicine was as expected of a high-grade mid-martial genetic medicine. The energy contained within it was immense. The moment they swallowed it, the energy from within erupted forth like a volcano, wanting to make them explode by flooding them with power.
It was precisely so that their vitality stat explosively surged.
Feng Lin didn’t know how much of an increase Yi and Su Li had. But his vitality stat leaped, swiftly breaking through 1,000, 2,000, and finally stopping at 2,168.
His vitality stat increased by three times. Right now, he had already crossed over to the grand cultivator realm and he couldn’t be considered a weakling among them.
All of Feng Lin’s veins throbbed. He could feel his every cell twitching, entering a high-frequency state, unleashing all the power his body could muster.
His qi and blood weren’t gaseous and liquid any longer. They were now fire. Boundless energy erupted forth from him.
Powerful, he was unprecedentedly powerful!
Feng Lin even had the feeling that no enemies would be able to withstand a single one of his strikes.
If one punch couldn’t settle things, he would throw the second punch then.
Sadly, it was just a feeling.
The spirit explosion medicine had a time limit of ten minutes. This also said that if the effect of the spirit explosion medicine was to disappear, Feng Lin would enter a weakened state for a prolonged period of time. He wouldn’t be able to muster up any combat strength then.
This short period of power contained immense danger behind it.
Ten minutes, he only had ten minutes…
“Despicable humans, how dare you all barge into my lair. Have you all thought clearly about how you want to die?” The king sat on its blood throne, laughing coldly. His eyes narrowed into slits, so sharp that it felt as though his gaze could penetrate Feng Lin and his team members. It was as though he was looking at some ants who overestimated their strength.
Feng Lin directly rushed over. With his explosive surge in vitality force, he discovered that the pressure emitted by his opponent was no longer so suppressive.
His gaze locked onto a sphere-shaped blood-colored spirit crystal in the king’s hand. There seemed to be water flowing inside the sphere. This was actually spiritual qi that was condensed into liquid and the quantity was extremely shocking. Inside it, there was a tiny snake-like figure with horns on its head. It was bearded and had scales all over its body. It seemed to be a dragon and would occasionally let out piercing roars.
Spirit crystal bead!
Feng Lin was absolutely sure that that was their target. It was now in front of their eyes.
As long as they could obtain this object, his team would become the number one in this exam and pass this round.
The distance now was so near that he felt as though he could take it if he simply stretched his hand out.
Even for Feng Lin, he was unable to maintain his calmness at this moment.
“Act now!” He roared and took the lead in rushing forward. Yi and Su Li followed closely behind him.
Great Sage Cudgel Arts!
Feng Lin’s body expanded in size as he leaped into the air. His muscles tensed and he now resembled a giant ape wielding a metal cudgel. His back was arched as he summoned all the strength he could before heavily smashing down with his cudgel. The force was so great that the air exploded. A rumbling sound shook the area as sparks and lightning appeared.
Triple Crows Descent!
Three arrows in a single shot.
Each arrow was extremely quick. The friction caused by the air manifested flames as three firebirds swooped down from the sky. It appeared slow but was actually extremely fast; all the firebirds blasted the king at the same moment, causing the king to burst into flames.
Six Tails Loop!
Six giant tails appeared behind Su Li.
It was like he had transformed into the six-tailed demon fox of the Mount Qingqiu. With every movement, his tails would gather energy in the air. Each tail could manifest a different phenomenon.
Tornado vortex, blazing shooting stars, ice spears, lightning balls, churning sand, darkness sphere…
Six types of energy rotated swiftly in the air, forming six rings that stacked together before blasting downward.
Just after the king finished speaking his nonsense, he was surprised by the decisive attacks and was injured grievously. His roar contained towering rage, wanting nothing more than to burn Feng Lin and his team members into cinders.
“Detestable humans! How dare you all antagonize me. DIE!”
Three insignificant ants actually dared to initiate an attack on him. This was simply a humiliation to him.
Blood Sea Surges!
The king lifted his hand, and the water in the blood-colored lake churned wildly, forming waves over ten meters tall that threatened to crash down on them. The water emitted a bloody smell, filling the area with an aura of filth.
The attacks launched by Feng Lin and his team members actually sizzled out to nothing upon impact.
Chi, chi, chi~
Yi’s micro mecha armor was stained by a little blood. Even the tough alloy metals couldn’t withstand the corrosion properties. It felt like he had fallen into aqua regia. The micro mecha armor instantly sizzled as sparks manifested.
This scene was shocking to the extreme. Yi and Su Li were both hurriedly running away.
Feng Lin was the nearest. His clothes were corroded away, leaving holes in it. Even his tough steel-like skin was corroded through, and he felt a pain piercing in his nerves.
“Pay attention to how you are dodging!” His face was filled with fear as he rapidly retreated.
The waves of the blood lake surged forth again and again.
Yi’s micro mecha armor emitted a load of sparks, crackling around him and spreading outward. He leaped into the air and fired an arrow with a unique spinning force. This arrow was like a drill, breaking past through the obstruction of the blood water, shooting straight for the vital parts of the king.
Su Li erupted forth with demonic qi. He also leaped into the air and unleashed all his demonic techniques. Although the power of his techniques was low, the quantity of his attacks was plenty. His attacks were like shooting stars crashing downward, causing the blood lake to churn.
In the midst of chaos, a gigantic silver gun was aimed at the king’s eyes. The quantum ray gun then fired a shot.
The power of the quantum ray gun was so high that even the king felt the pressure. He didn’t dare to block it with his body alone.
Blood crystal wall!
His hands waved as those spirit crystals rapidly congregated here, forming a transparent barrier before him.
All the energy impact slammed into the barrier, causing it to explode into pieces. The barrier had negated the damage, and the Zheng Clan’s king didn’t suffer any critical injuries at all.
Even level 5 equipment was unable to unleash its effects in front of the king.
The difficulty of this situation far surpassed what Feng Lin had imagined.
He had underestimated the strength of the Zheng Clan’s king, while also overestimating the power of the level 5 equipment.
Although the killing might of level 5 equipment was immense, the timing to use them was extremely important. By fighting head-on like this, the opponent naturally would have enough time to react.
Great Sage Cleaving the Mountain!
The king’s aura towered up the sky, but Feng Lin already had no room for retreat. His cudgel danced in the wind as he rushed forward, unleashing the violent strength in his body completely. He was so filled with power now that he wanted to turn the heaven and earth topsy-turvy.
Raging Blood Waves!
Waves after waves from the blood lake surged forth under the control of the king. They were as sticky as glue and spiraled around Feng Lin, flowing closer and closer.
He felt like he had fallen into a swamp. His movements were slowed, and it felt like he wouldn’t be able to unleash any more strength as his attacks only hit the air.
The waves came one after another, each one more intense than the last.
This was a gigantic ‘area of effect’ attack.
Yi and Su Li didn’t dare to stay here any longer. They were trying their best to dodge.
The king raised his arms like the devil king of the blood lake. The blood waters rose higher and higher as he laughed malevolently. He stared down at the three ants below him; these three were already in his palm. As long as he closed his fingers, they would be squashed to death.
Ho!
Feng Lin’s body spun like a spinning top with increasing momentum. His metal cudgel rotated with him, drawing a giant circle that was impenetrable by the waves. He used brute strength to break free from the sticky effect of the blood waters.
He transformed into a hurricane, and the absorption force he generated drew more and more of the blood waters over to him.
The pressure on Yi and Su Li was greatly reduced and they found opportunities to retaliate.
Bang, bang, bang!
Yi’s micro mecha armor shot out over ten guided missiles.
Bzz~
The bowstring twanged and the sound of a powerful army galloping forward rang out as arrows fell like rain. Each of the arrows contained a mysterious power.
Demonfire blazed in the air. Wind, thunder, ice…all sorts of demonic techniques blasted forth like they were free of charge.
Su Li tried to find opportunities to launch long-range attacks. The quantum ray gun in his possession had the greatest chance to heavily injure the king.
Shaman, demon, science and technology…
Three different types of power erupted forth, constituting an ultimate killing technique.
However, the Zheng Clan’s king simply stood unmoving at his original location. It was like he had no intention to evade.
He held the spirit crystal bead in his hand. The blood dragon within it roared as numerous blood-colored spirit crystals in the surrounding mountain walls flew over, forming an extremely powerful blood-colored armor that enveloped the king.
All the attacks blasted into him, causing the crystals on the armor to shatter. But a few moments later, even more blood spirit crystals flew over; this armor was capable of self-repair.
Blood Control!
Feng Lin and his team members didn’t even have the time to be shocked. The king laughed maliciously and grabbed out in the air.
Bathump, bathump, bathump…!
Their hearts pounded violently like they were grabbed by an invisible hand. The pounding grew so fierce that it felt their hearts were about to leap out of their chests. Their qi and blood churned wildly and began to flow in reverse, causing their internal organs to crumble.
The interior of a body would always be far weaker compared to the outside.
Su Li was the first who couldn’t take it. He coughed out blood; his fox mask was stained red.
Yi’s body was shaking, he couldn’t even stand straight.
Only Feng Lin was still on his feet. His face was pale, however, he depended on the powerful body of the spiritual stone monkey to resist this. But even so, he had to split a part of his attention to suppress his qi and blood from moving. His movements were thus greatly slowed.
If he was in such a sorry state, then there was no need to talk about Yi and Su Li. They felt increasingly dispirited. It was already very good if they retained 30% to 40% of their original combat strength.
How powerful!
Feng Lin’s heart sank to the valley.
The extraordinary ability of blood control was unleashed to its greatest effect. It started from the inside to the outside. There was no way to block this.
If Feng Lin didn’t attack now to change the situation, Yi and Su Li would probably die soon from this attack.
The blood lake churned. Many members of the Zheng Clan could be seen within it. They were like yakshas and asuras from hell, rushing over like the tides, wanting to indulge in wild slaughter.
They similarly had the ability to control blood. They caused their own blood to boil with energy as they rushed over in a crazy and ferocious manner.
Su Li and Yi hurriedly evaded. They were in miserable states.
But Feng Lin’s situation was the most dangerous.
The Zheng Clan’s King could also tell who was the strongest among the three humans. He placed most of his attention on Feng Lin. The waves of the blood lake surged forth again and again, wanting to drown Feng Lin.
Every time his head broke the water’s surface, another wave would crash down on him. It was tough for him to break free.
Many black-colored figures with tridents could be seen in the waters. They pierced out with their weapons, wanting to penetrate Feng Lin.
Feng Lin hurriedly held his breath. He dove into the lake and brandished his cudgel, starting a massacre.
For a time, he was completely surrounded. The sounds of wild slaughter echoed out incessantly.
Every strike unleashed by his cudgel would sweep out in great arcs.
However, the life force of these Zheng Clan’s members was as tough as the asura clan of the legends.
If the blood sea didn’t dry up, the asuras would never die.
Feng Lin shattered their bodies, but they could draw upon the power of the blood waters to regenerate themselves. They were like unkillable cockroaches that didn’t know fear, constantly rushing at him.
After he cleared one wave of monsters, another wave would rush over. They didn’t know fatigue and didn’t fear death. Their personalities were brutal and ferocious.
Feng Lin couldn’t hold back. He gave it his all, using all his strength to kill them.
Each of his cudgel strikes was as heavy as a mountain, completely crushing them into pulps of flesh and blood.
Only in this state would they not be able to revive. He had to break the structure of their bodies completely.
But the strange thing was that after they died, their flesh and blood were absorbed by the blood lake, transformed into blood waves that enhanced the strength of the other Zheng Clan’s members.
The blood lake granted them life; thus, it didn’t matter even if they died here!
The baleful aura flooded the entire area. It was extremely terrifying!
Feng Lin unleashed the entirety of his strength with every strike. His physical strength was rapidly waning.
If it wasn’t for the fact that he had consumed the spirit explosion medicine, he would already have been completely drained.
In truth, fatigue was beginning to creep in. He could feel his breaths getting shorter and shorter.
Originally, the effects of the spirit explosion medicine could subsist for ten minutes. But from the current consumption rate of his energy, he estimated that it would only last at most five to six minutes.
And currently, over three minutes had already passed. Half of the allocated time was gone. They had to end things quickly!
Feng Lin was clear that he was now in a deadly situation of unprecedented danger.
If the medicinal effect faded away, they would no longer have any combat strength and would be like lambs for the slaughter.
Also, the paladin team outside the lair was a factor as well, eyeing the king and them like how a tiger eyed its prey.
Before them, there was a wolf. And behind them, there was a tiger. Feng Lin felt like they were sandwiched in. This was why the situation was so terrifying.
There was no room for retreat!
What they could do now was to slaughter out a path of blood. If not, their team of five would surely die here today.
Feng Lin drew in a deep breath and expelled the putrid air from his body. His hands tightened on the metal cudgel as he stared at the malevolent figure seated on the throne. His heart was filled with resolve.
This was it then.
With their backs against the wall, they had to desperately fight with all they had, seeking a chance to live on!
