Martial Ascent to Divinity-Chapter 665 - 644: Ten Thousand Miles

Once again, flames erupted around Yuan Kuo Well, and with a punch, a giant’s phantom suddenly appeared in front of him, spanning dozens of meters, with power directly reaching Zhou Leng.

A flame flickered lightly beneath Zhou Leng’s gaze, years of accumulated power pouring into his fists.

He calmly pushed forward.

Roar...

A dragon and a tiger flew out from his two arms.

Boom!

The dragon and tiger collided in front of the giant’s phantom, turning into a range of miniature continuous mountains.

Within the mountains, numerous basins scattered, with mighty rivers flowing through.

Boom!

The giant collided with the giant mountains, releasing terrifying Qi force.

Zhou Leng and Yuan Kuo Well staggered backward simultaneously, only stopping after taking over a dozen steps.

"In the future, you may surpass me, but today, I will defeat the future’s first king!"

Yuan Kuo Well’s ferocity burst forth, charging at Zhou Leng like a madman.

The two once again clashed in a head-on confrontation, battling fiercely on the ground.

They fought until they reached the mountain’s edge.

Yuan Kuo Well launched a punch, Zhou Leng easily turned and dodged.

Bam!

The giant fist broke through the mountain wall, with the entire arm sinking into it.

Zhou Leng kicked out, and Yuan Kuo Well unexpectedly pushed against the mountain body with both feet, transforming his right hand from a fist into a claw, grabbing onto the stones within the mountain wall.

The mountain wall suddenly exploded, and Yuan Kuo Well’s right hand pulled out a giant stone block several dozen meters high, like a skyscraper, smashing it towards Zhou Leng.

The stone was too large, and they were too close; Zhou Leng changed the direction of his hands, smashing toward the giant rock.

A massive explosion erupted, the giant rock shattered, and fragments flew everywhere.

Yuan Kuo Well’s ferocity surged, recklessly tearing through the mountain body, continuously grabbing skyscraper-sized giant rocks and hurling them at Zhou Leng like a giant ape.

Zhou Leng either dodged, shattered the rocks, or closed in for close combat.

Before long, Yuan Kuo Well had ripped off a quarter of the small mountain, which was several hundred meters high.

The grandmasters in the distance exchanged glances; an upper-rank grandmaster could tear down pillars, but tearing apart massive connected rocks like this would take a long time to achieve.

Yuan Kuo Well could do it effortlessly with a casual grab, far beyond comparison.

Before long, the two were battling atop the mountain.

The mountain body continued to crumble, large fragments rolling downward.

Before long, they carved off a thirty-meter section from the mountain top.

At this point, both parties realized that Yuan Kuo Well held a clear advantage.

Injuries on Zhou Leng’s body, initially faintly red, gradually turned blue and purple.

The healing ability... seemed incredibly strong.

The Alien Giant could not comprehend why the power from Yuan Kuo Well’s divine spirit bloodline didn’t break the opponent into pieces but merely left bruises.

Everyone watched as the two continued to fight.

They leveled the several-hundred-meter-high mountain to the ground.

The two continued battling in the rocky battlefield.

After a full hour, the two were panting, standing thirty meters apart while staring at each other.

Everyone knew that both of their bodies had reached the beginning of their limits; the intensity of this fight was too strong.

If these two fought within a city, they could level any city to the ground.

Yuan Kuo Well suddenly laughed joyfully, turning and shouting to the Alien Giant battalion: "What do you think of our future first king?"

"Powerful!"

"Dominant!"

"Take him back as a trophy!"

"Don’t let him escape!"

The Alien Giants seemed immersed in a carnival, all roaring.

"I declare that the goal of this true king’s trial is no longer slaying dragons, but bringing Zhou Leng from Yuan Kuo back to Yuan Kuo Well!"

"Bring him back!"

"Bring him back!"

The Alien Giants grew increasingly fervent.

"You’re insane," Zhou Leng finally cursed the words he had long wanted to say.

Yuan Kuo Well turned his head, smiling at Zhou Leng, saying, "You can’t defeat even me; how could you defeat hundreds of us! First king, leave with us, and on Yuan Kuo Well, you will have anything you want."

Zhou Leng looked at Yuan Kuo Well’s fanatical eyes and said, "Seems like you won’t be letting me go."

"Of course!" Yuan Kuo Well yelled, raising both arms.

The Alien Giants behind also raised their arms, shouting loudly.

"A worthy adversary with a diseased mind. Unfortunately, the continuation of civilization involves more than reproduction; it requires learning something very important..."

Said Zhou Leng, activating the true power of the stars.

Rumble...

A roar like stars grinding the sky suddenly began.

In everyone’s eyes, a small nuclear explosion occurred in Zhou Leng’s chest and abdomen, bright lights erupted within his body, piercing through his skin, illuminating his whole body.

Rings of strong wind swept from under his feet in all directions, layer upon layer, dust rose, rocks rolled.

"If I can’t stop you, then I will teach you that provoking those who should not be provoked will cost you your lives."

Zhou Leng stood tall, flames burning horizontally in his eyes, spilling from the corners, forming two thin red lines flowing towards his ears.

Behind him, a red glow emerged, waving like a flag.

From the red glow emerged faceless, translucent figures.

Some wore old gray-blue outfits, some had leg wraps, some wore peaked caps, and gradually, a line of people appeared behind them, with the outfits becoming more modern as they went back.

"I command the mandate of Heaven..." Li Shenkong squeezed out four words from his throat.

The human grandmasters slightly bowed their heads in respect.

Only a hero who saves countless lives, who possesses the will to integrate into civilization, who is prepared for fearlessness, can truly comprehend the mandate of Heaven to this realm.

The human body, with a grand will, can receive the mandate of Heaven.

East Wind Fist’s eight moves, initiation.

"Our battle officially begins."

Zhou Leng slightly lowered his shoulders, leaned forward, took a step, and swung a punch.

Everyone’s vision blurred, a grand vertical fist technique unfolded beside the two men.

On the land, mountains spread out continuously, white rivers crisscrossed, a part of the Dragon Country’s map laid out.

On the map, dense red dots appeared, joining together as one.

The starting point of the red dots was Zhou Leng, and the endpoint was Yuan Kuo Well.

Some Grandmasters familiar with the map calculated that, according to the route of the red dots, the two were more than 12,000 kilometers apart.

East Wind Fist eleventh move, A Shatter in an Instant.

The fastest move.

In almost an instant, Zhou Leng appeared in front of Yuan Kuo Well.

Speed, broke through four times the speed of sound.

Yuan Kuo Well only had time to raise his arm to block, not even having time to fully exert his power, Zhou Leng’s fist pierced through his arm, striking his chest.

The half-body armor was unharmed, the body merely swayed lightly.

Boom!

The terrifying fist force shot out from Yuan Kuo Well’s back, continuing to rush forward.

The hard granite ground cracked with a roar, spreading forward, and powerful force pushed the giant rocks on both sides to roll.

Finally, the cracks in the rocky ground spread fifty meters ahead, resembling a slender giant dragon, clawing and dancing.

Zhou Leng withdrew his fist, patted his shoulder, and walked toward the Alien Giant corps.

"Still lacking a bit." Zhou Leng said as he walked.

Yuan Kuo Well slowly closed his eyes, and fell backward to the ground.

With a thud, his body shattered like glass into countless small pieces.

A Shatter in an Instant, severed all his vitality.

The Demigod Armor gradually shrank, shrinking into a tortoise shell.

Zhou Leng waved with his right hand, the tortoise shell flew into his hand, and he placed it into a spatial wooden box.

"Any more bearing the name of Yuan Kuo? Next."

Zhou Leng glanced at the Alien Giants, flames flowing from the corners of his eyes.

Within his chest and abdomen, it was as if the sun was shining.

His aura, ascending in stages.

Accumulated far and wide, nothing is unbreakable.

"I’ll do it!" A giant with power not inferior to Yuan Kuo Well immediately activated the power of the Divine Spirit bloodline, charging towards Zhou Leng.

He had no anger, no curses, not even a fluctuation of emotion.

Everything followed the survival laws of the universe.

The Alien Giant launched a double-handed attack, Zhou Leng’s left arm was on his waist, only his right arm operated, using various fist techniques of the East Wind Fist.

Seemingly relaxed and carefree, yet meticulously precise, his fist technique was rigorous.

After a hundred moves, Zhou Leng delivered another punch, A Shatter in an Instant.

The Alien Giant without Demigod Armor, his body exploded into pieces, scattering all over the ground.

"Next Yuan Kuo."

Zhou Leng continued forward.

One after another, the Alien Giants bearing the name of Yuan Kuo came forward, one after another fell to the ground.

"Next."

Zhou Leng stepped over the corpse of the ninth Yuan Kuo Giant.

Ahead, all Alien Giants remained motionless.

"No more?"

Some giants nodded blankly.

Zhou Leng said, "Very well, now I give you a choice. Whoever wants to continue capturing my people, walk to my right hand side. Whoever doesn’t, walk to the left. If there are more people on the left, we put aside our prejudices, whether divided or united, either is possible. If there are more on the right, then, we continue the battle, until one side of you or us is entirely down..."

"If in the end it is us who survive, then I promise, after Ascension to Divinity, to find your Yuan Kuo planet, and erase the entire star along with your tribe..."

"This might teach you one thing, do not provoke those you cannot afford to provoke."

"Alright, begin."

Zhou Leng clapped his hands, spread his arms apart, standing in place.

The Alien Giants looked at each other, some walked to the right, some walked to the left.

In the end, those standing on Zhou Leng’s left hand side were the majority.

"Very well, the minority obeys the majority, our conflict ends at the cost of nine giants’ sacrifice."

The solar Melting Furnace within Zhou Leng slowly withdrew, his glowing body gradually returned to normal.

The Alien Giants bowed to Zhou Leng, expressing respect and gratitude, then silently turned away, walking into the distance.

"So impressive, truly worthy of the husband arranged for me by the Elder." Jinli admired aloud, eyes shining brightly.

"Hmm?" Zhou Leng glanced at Jinli, then looked at the other giants like the Mountain River Celestial Peak.

The group of giants looked around, not daring to confront Zhou Leng directly.

Li Shenkong muttered softly, "You guys really aren’t afraid of death, isn’t the Alien Giants’ lesson enough?"

The giants rolled their eyes at Li Shenkong.

"Are you going to the ancient altar?" Zhou Leng asked.

"Yes," Jinli hopped over cheerfully, "Come with us."

"I’m here also for the ancient altar. But I still need to kill some Divine Spirits, I need some fresh corpses."

"How many do you need? We have some." Mountain River Celestial Peak said.

"A thousand."

Everyone was speechless.

"Forget it, whoever has them, just bring them out."

They began to hand over their Divine Spirit corpses to Zhou Leng one after another.

The group ran towards the direction of the ancient altar, chatting along the way.

They recounted their experiences of the past days, Zhou Leng also shared his experiences but didn’t mention the mysterious experts of the Divine Lake and Disaster Land.

"Once the ancient altar is opened, I’ll take you to the Divine Vein River; soaking for a day or two is great for the body."

"Will there be a conflict with the Giant Dragon Divine Spirits?"

"Without conflict, how can I obtain Divine Spirit corpses?"

"Consider you ruthless." Mountain River Celestial Peak said.

The group ran along the way, encountering Divine Spirits, if able to catch up, they killed them, if not, they gave up.

Relying on superior numbers, everything went smoothly, even breaking through several small tribes of Divine Spirits, amassing a great harvest.
