Chapter 300 - 159: A Surge in Power, The Strongest Gang Condensation Realm Ever
That must be the other Celestial Abyss Race his instructor had told him about—the Eight-armed Race.
This race’s appearance was remarkably similar to that of humans. Though they stood no taller than two meters, their bodies were exceptionally robust, every inch of muscle brimming with explosive power.
Their skin was dark, covered in eerie, bright red battle markings that seemed to flow slowly across their flesh as if alive.
The one leading them had six brawny arms, and the red battle markings on its body were denser and more uncanny than those of its companions.
One of its six hands gripped a great axe.
The other three members of the Eight-armed Race, however, only had four arms and were bare-handed.
However, their tightly clenched knuckles were covered in a thick, calloused plating. Clearly, the destructive power they could unleash was not to be underestimated.
Every one of them wore the same expression of ultimate fury. Their eyes were crimson, as if they were born for nothing but battle and slaughter.
The two squads were locked in a tense standoff, clearly over the Source Crystal Vein inside the cave. A battle was on the verge of erupting.
But the moment Lin Ye appeared, both squads of the Celestial Abyss Race whipped their heads around in unison. The most intense hostility and killing intent erupted from their scarlet eyes.
Without the slightest hesitation, while still dozens of meters away, Lin Ye pushed off forcefully with his legs. He shot forward like a cannonball, landing right in the middle of the two alien squads.
SCREEE—!!
A series of unearthly cries rang out.
The next moment, Lin Ye’s eyes narrowed as he saw four or five invisible sonic waves form in the mouths of the screeching Stone Ghosts and shoot toward him at incredible speed.
With a mere thought, an ethereal, golden Gangsha Armor instantly materialized before him.
VMM!
The sonic waves crashed against the Gangsha Armor but failed to create the slightest ripple before shattering and disappearing instantly.
At the same time, Lin Ye extended his right hand toward the nearest Stone Ghost and flicked his finger.
PFFT!
A thin ray of golden Gang Sha shot out like a miniature shooting star.
In the very next instant, the head of the Stone Ghost Lin Ye had chosen as his test subject exploded like a watermelon smashed by a sledgehammer!
Grayish-white brain matter and foul-smelling blood splattered all over its nearby kin.
Even as their companion’s headless corpse collapsed, they still hadn’t processed what had just happened.
Even Lin Ye himself was a bit surprised.
’So this is the terrifying power of projecting one’s Gang Sha to strike an enemy!’
He had used these Stone Ghosts as his puppets before, so he knew very well that their skin was like rock, providing high defense, and their skulls were exceptionally hard.
’A single ray of Gang Sha, flicked from my finger at a distance of over ten meters, was enough for an instant headshot.’
The fundamental difference between the Gang Condensation Realm and the Vein Opening Realm was on full display in that moment.
The power levels were on completely different scales.
’No wonder people used to see me as a monster.’
’It was only because my foundation was so outrageously solid that I could go toe-to-toe with Gang Condensation Realm Martial Artists while still in the Vein Opening Realm.’
’Otherwise, what other Vein Opening Realm cultivator wouldn’t be swatted to death by a single slap from someone in the Gang Condensation Realm?’
After Lin Ye instantly killed one of the Stone Ghosts, a deathly silence fell over the area.
The remaining Stone Ghosts and the four members of the Eight-armed Race all turned to face him, regarding him as their one true enemy and bracing for a fight.
A cruel smile touched the corners of Lin Ye’s lips.
’Oh? Calling a truce on your little civil war to deal with an outsider?’
As his gaze swept over them, the information about these members of the Celestial Abyss Race appeared clearly before his eyes.
[LV34 Stone Ghost Race Elite]
[Evolutionary Tier: 1.33]
[LV35 Eight-armed Race Elite]
[Evolutionary Tier: 1.45]
Just as Lin Ye was sizing them up, the six-armed elite of the Eight-armed Race let out an earth-shattering roar!
The ground beneath it trembled as its figure instantly vanished, becoming a black blur that kicked up a violent gust of wind as it shot straight for Lin Ye’s face!
’So fast!’
Lin Ye’s Spirit could clearly track the enemy’s movements, but his body’s reaction was half a beat too slow.
Lin Ye was a little annoyed.
’With my current physical prowess, it should be impossible for my mind to be aware but my body to not react.’
’This is only happening because I still need to get used to my new strength.’
’Before, I was afraid of using too much force, so I was constantly holding back.’
’Now, it’s clear I’ve overcorrected.’
Seeing it was too late to dodge, Lin Ye could only protect himself with his Gang Sha.
THUD-THUD-THUD-THUD-THUD!
A series of dull impacts, so rapid they almost blended into a single continuous sound, rang out!
The five arms of the elite from the Eight-armed Race became a blur of afterimages, landing over a hundred punches in less than a second. Each fist precisely struck the layer of Gang Sha protecting Lin Ye.
Meanwhile, its great axe swung in wide, powerful arcs, coordinating seamlessly with its other five arms in a combined assault.
Lin Ye felt waves of furious power penetrating his Gangsha Armor and striking his body.
It forced him to slide back a step involuntarily.
Before he could regain his footing, the other three four-armed members of the race pounced from three different directions. A torrential rain of fists descended upon him, cutting off any possible escape.
Lin Ye frowned. The Gang Sha in his Dantian surged, and the golden armor covering his body flared with brilliant light.
But then, something unexpected happened.
Each time the fists of the Eight-armed Race smashed against his Gangsha Armor, its light dimmed by a fraction.
A peculiar energy was invading through their fists, continuously dissipating and suppressing his Primordial Gang Sha!
