Chapter 706: Chapter 699: Barbaric

BOOM!!

The immense power Zhou Yuanjue generated after activating the Nine Great Furnaces converged at his fist. Abandoning his defensive stance, he met Debaka’s attack head-on.

Intense energy fluctuations rippled outward in waves. A blinding flash of light engulfed everything.

’He’s not just a defensive specialist? It seems his offensive abilities are even greater than his defensive ones?!’

The astonishment on Modin’s and Si Enli’s faces deepened.

It was incredible enough that his defensive specialty could withstand Demon Debaka’s fierce assault. But now, it seemed his offensive power could even rival Debaka’s?

"This terrifying clash... Who in the world is the Demon’s opponent?! With this kind of strength, how did he get matched with a Demon? Could he be one of the candidates, just like us?"

"His defense is so strong, and now his offense is just as powerful. His overall strength couldn’t be greater than the Demon’s, could it?"

"That’s just ridiculous. But as a representative of a high-potential race, the Demon shouldn’t possibly lose like this."

"..."

The crowd of spectators was instantly stunned by the power Zhou Yuanjue had just unleashed, sparking a wave of heated discussion.

Who on earth was this guy who had appeared out of nowhere?

But what shocked them even more was the scene that next entered their perception.

The light and shockwaves from the collision gradually dissipated. Unbelievably, the one sent flying backward from the impact was the massive body of Demon Debaka.

BOOM!!!

Under the terrifying force of the impact, Demon Debaka’s body slammed heavily into the floor of the battle arena. The ground, many times more solid than the surface of Earth, cracked in a web of fissures. Yet Demon Debaka’s figure wasn’t too worse for wear; he had protected his center of gravity and landed on his feet.

However, to be knocked back by an opponent in a single blow was a tremendous insult for him, a man who had stood at the pinnacle of the Kara Civilization for nearly a decade.

He jerked his head up. The six pairs of eyes on his forehead, filled with a murderous aura, stared at the figure in the sky.

The light faded, revealing to Debaka and the spectators a completely different Zhou Yuanjue.

Infused with immense energy, his body had swelled to a height of nearly seven meters, not much different from Debaka himself.

His bulging, taut muscles, massive hands like cattail fans, and the Dragon Mask covering his face gave him the oppressive aura of a Divine Being as he floated in the air.

A semi-translucent Sacred Lotus, formed from solidified, almost tangible Jade Radiance, enveloped his body in a fifteen-meter radius. A tremendous, layered roar, like the core of some great furnace in operation, echoed throughout the arena, continuously supplying him with immense power.

The Furnace Structure’s amplification of his own energy and attack power far surpassed the Defense Power provided by the Qiluo Structure.

"It’s been a long time since I’ve felt this way. If this were a vast, natural battlefield of life and death, I’m afraid I would be no match for you. But this is an arena. You have no chance to escape."

Debaka’s frenzied will spread throughout the entire battlefield.

At the same time, the dark purple Black Lotus around him bloomed to its fullest extent. The muscle fibers all over his body actually began to tear, but thanks to his powerful physical control and regenerative abilities, all the injuries were temporarily suppressed.

BANG!!

A ball of black flame ignited from atop the dark purple Black Lotus, completely engulfing Debaka’s body.

Black Lotus·Extreme Radiance.

It was a technique that gambled everything. It burned True Realm Energy, and he used his terrifying body—evolved in a harsh environment—to withstand the resulting power.

"Some kind of ’suicidal’ ability? As expected of someone who came from that cruel civilization. Still, using an ability like this in an arena feels like an unfair victory."

Si Enli frowned.

The Dream Realm’s simulated battlefield was, after all, different from a real one. It was a vast, open plain, lacking any cover for hiding or defense. If this were a deathmatch in the natural environment of the True Land, the other party could easily use the terrain or other factors to stall for time. They could wait for this type of ability to expire, then effortlessly claim victory.

But on the terrain of the simulated battlefield, stalling for time became an incredibly difficult task.

"That’s not necessarily true. Who knows? Maybe that little guy has a similar ability too," Modin said, a look of interest on his face.

BANG!!

Demon Debaka’s figure abruptly vanished again. This time, the black flames shrouding his body left a long, fiery tail in his wake, making him look like a comet falling from the sky.

He continuously swung his two massive, dark purple fists at Zhou Yuanjue!!

However, to everyone’s surprise, not only did Zhou Yuanjue show no intention of dodging, he clenched his fists, his body erupting with Jade Radiance, and likewise threw his own continuous barrage of punches.

This time, the immense roar from within his body, like a furnace engine, completely drowned out the sound of all the impacts.

This was the most savage of clashes!!

BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM!!

Their bodies clashed in mid-air, fists colliding continuously in a stalemate. Even against Debaka’s life-risking technique, Zhou Yuanjue was somehow able to go toe-to-toe with him.

"This body of mine, evolved in a harsh environment, is tougher than anything! You’ve made the worst possible choice!!"

Debaka roared. Amidst the clashes, his muscles and bones were constantly breaking down, but under his formidable physical control, he forcibly restored them to their original state.

This was an ability only a being who stood at the very peak of the Demon Race could possess.

It was called Immortal Battle Intent.

Under the control of his Immortal Will, for a considerable period of time, he would be immune to even the most severe injuries—or even death. As long as his body wasn’t completely destroyed, he could maintain his peak condition at all times.

And his Immortal Battle Intent could last for a full ten minutes.

’In a head-on collision between equals, victory will surely be mine!!’

’Because the enemy’s strength will weaken from the damage of the clashes!!’

However, five minutes passed, and the clashes continued. His opponent seemed tireless. More importantly, not only did he not feel the enemy’s assault weakening, but it was actually getting stronger and stronger.

The ten minutes passed quickly. The duration of his Immortal Battle Intent expired, and the damage he had sustained began to return.

And at that moment, his opponent’s attacks grew even stronger.

’This person... he has a more perfect body and Talent, a more powerful realm and strength than I do.’

’I’ve lost... It was a fair loss...’

’This isn’t the Kara Civilization anymore, and I’m no longer the King of Demons.’

’This is the True Realm Civilization. It’s stronger, more unfathomable than I ever imagined!’

As Demon Debaka’s body was pummeled by countless flashing fists and shattered inch by inch, a flicker of relief crossed his six pairs of eyes, followed by an even greater sense of intense anticipation and longing.

’This is exactly why... a High-level Civilization is so much fun!!’
