Chapter 158 A Dramatic Reversal on the Brink of Death: Lu Sheng Leads the Team to Finish Off the Dea
The level 7 drowned creature, covered in tentacles, witnessed its companion being blasted to pieces in the blink of an eye. Now, facing the golden demon god who had returned from the abyss, its pride in its intelligence and ferocity crumbled into dust in the face of absolute fear of death.
"Hiss—!!"
It let out a sharp, strange cry that seemed inhuman, and its eight thick tentacles, like wildly growing vines, climbed up the rock face against the laws of physics, attempting to use the rock face as a springboard and use the reaction force to propel itself off the cliff and escape back to the deep sea where it could find a sense of security.
dignity?
The pride of the strong?
Compared to a monster that can tear apart its own kind at level 7 with its bare hands, that's all bullshit!
Survival is the only thought!
however.
Lu Sheng simply stood still, without moving an inch.
On that ferocious dragon face, a cruel smile, more chilling than the cold winds of the deepest hell, curled at the corner of his mouth.
"Buzz—"
He loosely gripped his right hand, and the Dragon Devouring Spear, weighing 2140 jin, emitted a humming sound as if it were desperately thirsting for blood.
Lu Sheng's bulging muscles on his arm suddenly bulged, his waist and abdomen twisted, and he poured all his strength into his right arm. His movements were like those of a top Olympic javelin thrower, as he hurled the incredibly heavy spear!
"call out--!!!"
A golden streak of light tore through the night sky, accompanied by an extremely piercing explosion of air!
The tentacle of the drowned creature's massive body had just reached the rock wall and hadn't yet fallen.
The golden spear light had already traversed a hundred meters, passing through the center of its thickest main tentacle with unparalleled precision in an unreasonable manner, and finally, with a "boom," pinned it firmly to the hundred-meter-high rock wall!
Gravel flew everywhere, and dust billowed.
"Hiss!!"
The monster let out a bloodcurdling roar, its massive body suspended in mid-air like an octopus nailed to a chopping board. Its eight tentacles struggled and twitched frantically, but could not break free from the golden spear that seemed to be welded to the rock.
next second.
"Bang!"
The ground beneath Lu Sheng's feet cracked, and with a flash, he used his feet to brace against the vertical rock wall, making it feel like walking on flat ground, and instantly appeared in front of the pinned monster.
He grabbed the thick, still frantically writhing tentacle with one hand, his cold voice devoid of any emotion, like a judge from hell.
"You grabbed my brother with this hand just now?"
"Hiss...Gah?"
The tentacle drowner stared at the hideous dragon head so close to it, its dark eyes filled with pleading and fear.
In response, Lu Sheng wielded his cold, merciless dragon claws.
"Rip—!!!"
A blood-tearing sound, so agonizing it pierced to the bone, echoed throughout the valley.
Lu Sheng did not use any weapons.
He simply grabbed the base of the tentacle, which was thicker than his waist, with his bare hands and exerted force in the most primitive and savage way!
The tentacle drowner convulsed violently in pain, watching helplessly as his proud limbs, capable of crushing steel, were ripped from his body by this terrifying human, as easily as pulling out a weed!
Black blood sprayed all over Lu Sheng, but he didn't even blink.
He threw away the still twitching severed limb and grabbed another one.
"Is this one too?"
Mechanical, brutal, and cold-blooded.
In just over ten seconds.
One, two, three...
All eight tentacles were violently torn off in the most cruel way.
Zhou Hai, Su Li, and the surviving soldiers on the cliff top all stared in disbelief at this scene.
That wasn't a battle.
It was a one-sided, bloody execution.
Soon, the once invincible level 7 leader was reduced to a bald "human stick," with only a broken torso twitching helplessly on the rock wall.
Lu Sheng released his grip, letting the rotten flesh slide to the ground.
He raised his large, dragon-scaled foot and stomped heavily on the monster's head.
"In my next life, I want to be reborn as a vegetarian."
"Bang!"
He threw a punch.
The monster's head exploded like a watermelon, splattering red and white matter everywhere.
The Blood Devouring Rune on his palm suddenly lit up, instantly draining the vast amount of blood and energy remaining in the corpse and turning it into a torrent of heat to replenish Lu Sheng's human-dragon form, which was slightly depleted due to the continuous bursts of power.
At that very moment, the duration of the human-dragon form ended.
The golden scales receded like a tide, the rugged dragon horns retracted under the skin, and Lu Sheng returned to his fair-skinned appearance as a young man. However, his strong muscles were now covered with black, foul-smelling blood, making him look like a demon who had just crawled out of a pool of blood.
[Ding! Killed a Level 7 Drowned One, Energy Points +100!]
[Current Level: Level 6 Spirit Source User (950/2500)!]
[Dragon Devourer Spear successfully absorbed a soul! Weight increased by 150 jin! Current total weight: 2290 jin!]
Lu Sheng didn't even have time to check the soaring attributes.
He turned abruptly and rushed towards the spot where Zhao Ze had fallen.
At this moment, Zhao Ze's face was ashen, and his once solid chest had caved in with a terrifying dent. He could only exhale, not inhale, and the flame of his life seemed so weak that it could be extinguished at any moment.
"Old Zhao! Old Zhao, hang in there!!"
Zhou Hai knelt beside Zhao Ze. This tough guy, who would laugh even if the sky were to fall, was now crying like a two-hundred-pound child.
His hands were covered in blood as he futilely pressed on Zhao Ze's chest wound, but he couldn't stop the gushing life from flowing out.
Seeing Lu Sheng approaching, he seemed to see his last straw and roared:
"Young Master Lu! Old Zhao... he's dying!!"
Su Li also knelt down beside him. This aloof girl was already in tears. She held Zhao Ze's cold hand tightly, trying to transfer her body heat to him, but only felt a chilling despair.
Lu Sheng squatted down, his brows furrowed tightly.
Zhao Ze's injuries were too severe; almost all of his internal organs were shattered. With such injuries, let alone in the apocalypse, even in the best hospitals during peacetime, he would only be left to wait for death.
What should I do?
Lu Sheng's brain was working at lightning speed.
Medical supplies? Useless.
His own dragon blood?
It might be useful, but it's too late to help in a crisis. Besides, his own bloodline is so powerful that Zhao Ze's dying body simply can't withstand it.
and many more……
A detail he had overlooked flashed through his mind like lightning.
"Captain Zhou, how exactly are the sequence grades you mentioned divided?"
"...Although level 3 Spirit Source users don't gain experience from killing low-level floating corpses, it's not entirely useless. If you're injured, hunting low-level floating corpses allows you to absorb their life energy, which can accelerate your recovery."
This is a sentence that Zhou Hai mentioned unintentionally when he was explaining things to Lu Sheng a long time ago!
Absorb life energy!
Yes! That's it!
Isn't this just like the recovery attribute in a game?!
A bold and insane plan instantly took shape in Lu Sheng's mind.
"There's hope!"
Lu Sheng suddenly stood up, his eyes flashing with a terrifying light, his voice leaving no room for doubt:
"Captain Zhou! Carry Lao Zhao on your back! Follow me to the main port defense line!"
"There are many low-level floating corpses there; let him finish them off and absorb their life energy!"
