The Strongest Dandy in the City-Chapter 608: Self-Destruct System Activation
Chapter 608: Chapter 608: Self-Destruct System Activation
The King, his clothes torn from his body, had anger in his eyes that escalated to the extreme. He had not anticipated that Ye Chenfeng would actually discover his secret. As time ticked away by the second, it had been eight minutes since he crossed into the threshold of King Level Soul Force. If this continued, he would inevitably suffer a bodily collapse and death, so it was imperative that he resolve Ye Chenfeng as soon as possible. He knew that Ye Chenfeng would definitely not submit to him.
"Ye Chenfeng, I will completely finish you before my body goes into overload," declared the King. He had not utilized his full strength earlier due to concerns about his physical condition, but now he was at a point where he had to engage in a swift and decisive battle with Ye Chenfeng. The Soul Force within his body soared to its utmost limit without any reservation, and his aged, wrinkled face became increasingly fierce and terrifying. freēnovelkiss.com
Majestic waves of Soul Force attacked Ye Chenfeng one after another, causing an abnormal tightness in his chest. His eyebrows drew together once more as he saw that the blood-red cracks on the King’s body became more numerous as the King continued to power up unrestrainedly. The cracks spread across his entire body like a spider web. Ye Chenfeng knew that what he needed to do now was to buy time; he recognized that with his current strength, he was no match for the King.
Ye Chenfeng likewise pushed his own Soul Force, which was at the Initial Stage of Level Ten, to its extreme, in order to resist the relentless surges of energy coming from the King. He shouted, "Old man, it’s not too late for you to boast after you’ve dealt with me!"
"Heh," the King let out a sinister chuckle and said in a gloomy tone, "Ye Chenfeng, you’re simply courting death. You have truly enraged me, and I will make you understand what it means to suffer more than death."
The King’s figure suddenly disappeared from the spot, and Ye Chenfeng’s eyes scanned his surroundings vigilantly. He felt a slight energy fluctuation to his left, and just when he was about to react, the King reappeared at lightning speed and threw a punch towards his chest.
With a muffled "bang!"
Ye Chenfeng’s chest took a direct hit from the King’s punch, causing him to stagger back seven or eight steps. A sweetness rose in his throat and a mouthful of fresh blood spilled out. His chest felt abnormally tight and painful, and his heart stopped for three to four seconds. His heart had nearly burst from the force of the King’s attack.
Ye Chenfeng tasted bitterness in his heart. Indeed, the difference in levels represented a gap in strength. This solidified Ye Chenfeng’s resolve that once he survived and left this place, he must intensify his Yin-Yang Union with his women to make his Soul Force more refined. He was determined to become invincible within his own level, and even capable of killing opponents above his level.
Ye Chenfeng, clenching his teeth tightly, saw that the King’s body was cracking further and wider. His black eyes filled with resolve, he taunted, "Old man, is that all the strength you have? I think you’re so old that you can hardly move."
Ye Chenfeng was now trying to infuriate the King, pushing him to use all his strength, which would hasten the King’s self-propelled descent into the abyss.
"Ye Chenfeng, I hadn’t expected you to be so resilient. I thought that punch would have shattered your heart. Well, this one will definitely send you straight to Yama’s Palace," mused the King, his face wrinkled into what resembled a blooming chrysanthemum.
Once again, the King vanished from sight. Ye Chenfeng knew evasion was futile; the King was much faster than him. Suddenly, a strategy emerged in his mind; he stood firmly in place, waiting for the King’s attack.
"Ye Chenfeng, have you accepted death? That’s good to hear," the King’s voice came from the right, punching towards Ye Chenfeng once again.
Ye Chenfeng stood his ground, not attempting to dodge in the slightest. The King’s punch landed squarely on Ye Chenfeng’s chest, blasting him three to four meters away. Ye Chenfeng lay on the ground motionless.
"All your fine words, and yet isn’t this giving up resistance? A foolish boy," thought the King. He was certain Ye Chenfeng had resigned himself to death; his punch had contained his full power. He couldn’t believe Ye Chenfeng would have any tricks left. His Soul Force enveloped Ye Chenfeng, and he couldn’t feel any trace of life from him.
"Truly dead, then. Time to send these friends of yours to join you on the Road to Netherworld." Confident in his judgment, the King quickly retracted his Soul Force and turned around, intent on killing Wang Li, Hei Xin, and the others who were unconscious.
However, the moment the King turned around, Ye Chenfeng stood up from the ground like a ghost. Just before the King’s punch hit him on the chest, he had secretly drawn his left arm into his sleeve, using his left palm to shield his chest. Otherwise, if he had taken the force of the King’s punch directly on his chest, he would have undoubtedly been off to meet King Yama.
Even so, Ye Chenfeng’s left palm and chest bones were broken, and his heart had sustained considerable impact, his mouth filled with the blood that tasted strongly metallic.
After being blasted to the ground by the King, Ye Chenfeng immediately resorted to the Turtle Breathing Technique in order to make the King believe that he had already died.
Ye Chenfeng was very aware that he couldn’t possibly dodge the King’s attack with its speed, which is why he devised such a life-threatening gamble.
However, in the end, Ye Chenfeng’s bet paid off.
Standing not far behind the King, Ye Chenfeng, after using the Turtle Breathing Technique, had his life essence completely vanish, as if blending into the air, which was no wonder the King failed to detect the situation behind him.
Feeling the pain of his body splintering, the King first walked up to Hei Xin, muttering to himself in a deep voice, "Just a bunch of ignorant fools."
Just as the King was about to lift his foot and crush Hei Xin’s head, a figure emerged behind him. It was at this moment that the King felt something was amiss. He attempted to raise his Soul Force again, but it was already too late. The figure behind him struck hard with a palm on his back, sending his body flying forward, crashing heavily into a wall.
The King, having not used his Soul Force, suffered the full brunt of Ye Chenfeng’s all-out strike on his body. The cracks that had been present widened further, and he knew that if he now raised his Soul Force to the initial stage of the King Level, his body would immediately shatter.
The King’s eyes incredulously watched the disheveled young man before him, and he exclaimed in shock, "Ye, Ye Chenfeng? You, you were clearly dead just now, how could you possibly return from death?"
Ye Chenfeng wiped the blood trickling from the corner of his mouth with the back of his hand. He knew the King no longer posed a threat to him, and a cold smile appeared on his lips as he responded in a manner that was not answering the question, "I’ve said it before, the one who will die tonight is definitely you, old man."
Ye Chenfeng had also suffered serious internal injuries, but he could still hold out for a while. He walked towards the King with measured steps, "Just resign yourself to keeping King Yama company down below."
The King, leaning against the wall of the room, shifted his feet slightly to the left as he said, "Ye Chenfeng, so long as you let me go, I can agree to anything you want, whatever you need I can give you."
"I want your life," Ye Chenfeng bellowed.
The King’s slightly shifting feet suddenly stopped, and he laughed, "Ye Chenfeng, I admit you are a young man with limitless potential, but today, you will all be buried with me."
There was a palm print on the wall beside the King, which he pressed without hesitation. Immediately after, red warning lights flashed throughout the room, and a mechanical voice sounded: "Self-Destruct System will activate in ten seconds, Self-Destruct System will activate in ten seconds, Self-Destruct System will activate in ten seconds."
"Ten, nine, eight, seven, six, five, four, three, two, one, zero."
The entire room, as well as the whole castle, shook violently. Those brief ten seconds hardly gave Ye Chenfeng any chance to react, making it impossible for him to escape the castle in ten seconds, and even less possible for him to abandon Wang Li, Hei Xin, and others.
