Chapter 563 - 203: Slaying Shi Dang! Chaos’s Bane! The Path Ahead
"Qin Feng!!"
He roared at the sky, his voice shaking the entire battlefield until it hummed!
"I’ve endured for four years! Four whole years!
Enduring your boring cat-and-mouse games, all for this very day!
All to survive and return to Planet K412 on this day!"
"Hahahaha! In the end, you were still a step too slow!
If you had been just a little bit faster, the outcome would have been completely different!"
"Now, I lack... nothing!!"
Zhou Yu and the others felt the terrifying pressure emanating from Shi Dang—a power infinitely close to, or perhaps with one foot already across, the threshold of "planet-level." Shock and despair were written on every face.
A Khorne Demon on the verge of ascending to planet-level!
A being blessed by an Evil God!
As for the name "Qin Feng," Zhou Yu had no recollection of it.
Just as Zhou Yu and the others’ hearts sank to rock bottom, thinking all was lost.
Just as Shi Dang laughed maniacally, reveling in the ecstasy of his surging power.
Just as the Believers of Khorne were frantically slaughtering the last of the resistance, offering up the bloodiest of cheers for their leader.
Another engine’s roar tore through the sky.
Another, even larger and more menacing pirate warship, brutally invaded the airspace.
Then, a figure wielding a Long Spear, cloaked in endless killing intent and fury, leaped down from ten thousand meters in the air!
He was like a burning meteor, trailing a long tail of fire. Accompanied by a furious roar that shook the heavens and the earth, he plummeted fearlessly toward the laughing Shi Dang!
"STAR—SHATTER—!!!!"
The light of the spear was like a star truly falling from the highest heavens!
It blazed with a raging Spiritual Flame, illuminating the dim yellow sky until it became a blinding daylight!
It had only one target!
Shi Dang!
"Bring it on!!"
Sensing the terrifying aura, one that could threaten his very life, Shi Dang’s maniacal laughter came to an abrupt halt.
A ferocious grin spread across his completely demonized face.
Shi Dang drew the giant broadsword from his back in a reverse grip. Gathering all of his newly surged power, he furiously swung upward to meet the descending meteor!
For a moment, time itself seemed to stand still.
The tip of the spear and the edge of the blade met precisely in mid-air.
There was no earth-shattering BOOM.
Only a single moment of dead silence.
Then, a devastating shockwave, impossible to describe with words, erupted from the point of impact!
The earth wailed!
The ground for hundreds of miles around was slammed downward as if by an invisible giant’s hand, instantly forming a massive, bottomless crater!
The surging force transformed into a visible, expanding spiral of annihilation, grinding everything in its path—be it abandoned factories, hard rock, or the Blood God Followers who couldn’t dodge in time—into dust!
"Defend!!"
Zhou Yu shrieked.
However, she realized the shockwave wasn’t sweeping toward them.
The being who had descended from the sky was able to precisely control such terrifying destructive power!
’Just how powerful is he?!’
Zhou Yu was stunned.
The shockwave came as quickly as it went.
After the all-destroying light and heat completely vanished, the entire world seemed to fall into a dead silence.
Amidst the swirling dust, a tall, straight figure stood quietly in the very center of the massive crater, Long Spear in hand.
Impaled high on the tip of his spear was a head, its eyes wide open in death, its face frozen in a look of shock and disbelief.
Nearby was Shi Dang’s massive, headless corpse.
The headless body was still in the posture of an upward swing, only it was kneeling on the ground.
All the vitality, all the life force within him, had been utterly annihilated into nothingness by Qin Feng’s ultimate strike, "Star-Shatter."
Shi Dang was dead!
Silence reigned in the center of the giant crater.
Qin Feng stood silently, holding his spear. The Long Spear, forged from level-eight "Meteorite Iron," was now facing the strangest test since its creation.
On the spear’s tip, Shi Dang’s head, its eyes still open in death, was undergoing a bizarre transformation.
Streaks of blood-red, which had faded with the dissipation of his life force, now seeped out from the depths of the skull like a living tide.
This crimson color, carrying an evil and madness from the deepest reaches of chaos, covered the entire head in an instant!
"TZZZLA—"
Accompanied by the grating sound of sizzling flesh, the entire demon head spontaneously burst into roaring flames!
The dark red flames carried no heat, yet they were filled with ultimate malice and resentment.
Within the flames, Shi Dang’s twisted flesh, gnarled muscles, and even his pair of ferocious demonic horns were burned away at a visible rate, turning into wisps of black smoke that dissipated into nothingness.
In just a few short seconds, all that remained on the spear’s tip was a bizarre, red-and-white skull, translucent as jade yet filled with an ominous aura.
The white was the color of the skull itself, hard and grim.
The red was a network of countless bizarre, blood-colored lines that spread across the skull’s surface like blood vessels. As if they were still alive, they pulsed slowly.
Qin Feng’s brow furrowed slightly.
He could feel that the skull contained an aggregate of Mental Power that was both extremely pure and incomparably evil.
