Chapter 886: Chapter 659: One Strike Annihilation, Hell Eight Gates Realm!
The giant blood flames continued to burn fiercely, but the shadow inside was growing bigger.
6 meters, 10 meters, 15 meters, 20 meters…
The only thing that hasn’t changed is probably the saber stuck in the ground.
However, at this moment, that saber remains quietly placed in the soil.
Bone-faced insect beasts, towering at seventy meters, rushed simultaneously into the flames from all directions, shielding the Shura within their massive bodies.
But at that moment, the blood flames, already towering at a hundred meters, surged dramatically, almost engulfing the sky, shrouding all the charging bone-faced insect beasts within.
Then…
The five fingers of the right hand, still reaching forward, suddenly clenched tightly!
The leaping flames stood still.
The bone-faced insect beast stood still.
The terrifying bone blade about to strike stood still.
BOOM!
It was as if an ultra-massive nuclear bomb exploded on the spot.
A ferocious shockwave suddenly blasted outward in all directions.
In an instant, more than a dozen figures turned to dust in the sky, without even a single scream.
The bone-faced insect beasts diving rapidly from the sky instinctively shielded their bodies, then were blasted back into the sky by this violent energy.
With the Shura as the center, the surrounding ten kilometers were thoroughly cleared, devoid of any life or shadow.
Teng…
The flames incinerated everything within the space.
When the dust settled, a deep, dark mecha stood silently, its entire body over twenty meters tall!
The arch of the foot, the knees, the elbows, the shoulders… a series of exquisite, intricate, and magnificent dark red diamond-shaped armor plates spread out with sharp barbs.
The dark red and black perfectly fused, carrying a solemn and mysterious feel from the depths of the starry sky.
On each side of the shoulders and the head were three slender blade corners standing obliquely, their tips glistening with black light.
Its narrow eyes ignited with a substantial blood-colored flame, the heated air beginning to distort.
The only constant was the enormously magnified blood-red cape on its back, still marked with scars, still sometimes dissipating like smoke, yet now transforming into a flamboyant crimson banner between heaven and earth.
Carrying killing intent, conviction, and will, it soared high!
This was clearly a Shura enlarged several times in size.
Except… there wasn’t the vague saber that Mu Fan saw in the sea of Shura’s consciousness!
Everything was in the form of the Shura, just more exquisite and powerful.
In the cockpit, Mu Fan couldn’t see the Shura’s exterior, but he could sense the Shura gradually enlarging.
So, the appearance…
It should be infinitely close to what he once saw.
“SSS-class… Emperor Body!”
This term, so distant as if it’s just a legend, appeared before Mu Fan unguarded.
In the shared consciousness, Mu Fan could feel Shura’s monstrous rage.
In the once spiritual world, Shura looked like a samurai who returned victorious from a hundred battles on the doomsday battlefield.
And at this moment, Shura’s figure enlarged infinitely in his mind, like a…
War God tearing his way back from hell!
“Emperor Body countdown: 60 seconds…”
The blood-red numbers flickered before Mu Fan.
What can one do in 60 seconds?
In Mu Fan’s mind, that powerful and fearless figure suddenly crossed its hands in front of its chest, the little finger, index finger, and thumb opposite each other. Once this strange posture was adopted, the index fingers interlaced into a phantom in an instant.
Complex hand seals transformed into afterimages before Mu Fan.
The sound beside him was like a great bell.
In the outside world, it was as if a sound pressed down from the sky dome, penetrating the skin, muscles, and bones of the bone-faced insect beasts, burying deep into the brain.
“Shura, Eight Gates of Hell Realm.”
“First Gate—Opening Gate.”
A vast and mystic giant black pattern like a star emerged behind, and when the shadow formed by the pattern appeared, a desolate and ancient aura rose on the ground.
The hand seal made by interlocking fingertips shattered instantly, merging into the shadow behind.
And at that moment, a hum transmitted from the sole to the entire cockpit, Mu Fan felt himself possessing a terrifying power surpassing everything.
This feeling came abruptly, yet incomparably clear.
“Remember every second now, this is the true Shura, without a saber… yet still the Emperor Body Shura.”
The voice, different from the usual harshness, expressed deeply and solemnly to Mu Fan.
That was the powerful confidence within the mecha’s sea of consciousness.
[Shura Order—Big Peacock!]
I bloom within slaughter, just like a flower before dawn…
An ultimate beauty and ultimate death aura rose from Shura.
Countless red light points suddenly surfaced from the palms.
In an instant, the air seemed to stagnate, Shura’s cape soaring high, four terrifying blood-colored lights blasted out.
The ground trembled heavily.
Terrifying thrust force surged heavily from behind, for a moment Mu Fan’s vision even turned black!
He only felt that at this moment Shura seemed not to fly through the air, but shuttle through a space like mist.
A ring of blood-colored sound waves exploded in place, Shura’s figure vanished on the spot.
Then, 0.1 seconds later, surged out a kilometer away in high altitude…
Innumerable Shura afterimages!
Each afterimage accurately flew towards the bone-faced insect beasts in the sky.
Carrying a chilling, silent, deathly aura.
The bone wings behind those beasts just trembled for a moment, when a dispassionate mecha silhouette appeared directly in front of them.
Then swiftly flung out with one hand.
A red glow drew a long red line, instantly drilling into the forehead of the bone-faced insect beast.
After that fine red line emerged from the back of the head, those mecha afterimages vanished instantly.
Leaving only red lines over the sky, countless frozen afterimages in mid-blossom like a short-lived flower in the air.
Like facing the sunrise and the beautiful peacock, displaying its fan in the most magnificent moment of life.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh…
Innumerable extreme wind noises flashed past the ears of these bone-faced insect beasts.
Their consciousness still existed, yet aimlessly lost the target.
Then, beneath the drifting cloud layers, suddenly a silhouette quietly appeared, abruptly without any abruptness.
The lifted cape gently fell, revealing the cold and magnificently beautiful Emperor Body Shura Mecha, and held in its opened hands…
Countless red lines.
Those red lines piercing through the foreheads of nearly a thousand bone-faced insect beasts all converged at this moment into Shura’s hands, the body facing the sunlight leaving a beautiful cross silhouette in the sky.
Dispassionate eyes calmly watched the giant insect tail ahead, without sparing any attention to what’s behind.
Paused momentarily, arms crossed forward… suddenly pulled.
The countless red lines were lightly tugged.
BANG, BANG, BANG, BANG…
Like a grand fireworks show, ignited and blossomed all at once.
The heads of those bone-faced insect beasts, no matter how sturdy the bone armor, at this moment, shared the same scene.
Brains, flesh pulverized into a mist.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, countless red lines returning to the hands, yet still without turning back, Shura lightly stepped in the sky.
Behind it, those countless headless insect corpses rained down heavily onto the ground.
…Elapsed time: 1.3 seconds.
Mu Fan in the cockpit opened and closed his mouth repeatedly.
If it weren’t for the perspective Shura shared with him, he wouldn’t have seen or known what exactly happened in that split-second.
And Black’s voice stammered in Mu Fan’s ear: “Th-this is the power of SSS-class, this is the Emperor Body Shura… it’s terrifying to the extreme. With mechas of this level, it literally can crush anything! How did this mecha end up in such a ruined state? Why does this cosmic plane become more and more terrifying the more we think about it!”
Black’s simple voice silently lifted a veil from this mysterious universe.
However, the next moment when Shura’s cold voice rose, Black’s voice fell silent again.
“Second Gate—Rest Gate.”
