Chapter 873: Annihilation, Leave None Behind

Looking at Lin Yuan’s side again, Lin Yuan was the most terrifying one on the entire battlefield.

He alone held back almost half of the dozens of Tier Two Chaos Star Beasts.

Two or three dozen Tier Two Chaos Star Beasts surrounded Lin Yuan completely.

“Roar!”

“Roar! Roar!”

These Chaos Star Beasts seemed to sense that Lin Yuan was the greatest threat to them.

Compared to other Chaos Star Beasts, those surrounding Lin Yuan were exceptionally agitated.

After a confrontation, the Chaos Star Beasts couldn’t restrain themselves and launched an attack first.

In an instant, five Chaos Star Beasts pounced on Lin Yuan.

There was a faint blue glow on the Human King Armor, and an indescribable aura accompanied Lin Yuan’s presence.

This is….

The Human King’s pressure.

Of course, Lin Yuan was not a Tier One, so the Human King’s pressure he used was a weakened version.

If Lin Yuan became a true Human King, just the pressure alone could crush these Chaos Star Beasts into pulp.

However, even the weakened Human King’s pressure had a certain effect on these Chaos Star Beasts.

After the Human King’s pressure enveloped these Chaos Star Beasts, their speed and reaction capability noticeably slowed.

Immediately after, Lin Yuan took action.

The Human King Sword slashed out smoothly, cutting into the body of a Chaos Star Beast.

The Human King Sword easily sliced through the Chaos Star Beast’s body, splitting it in half, turning it into two pieces.

From the mutilated body of the Chaos Star Beast, a large amount of pitch-black liquid emerged.

However, did you think this Chaos Star Beast, split in two, cut into pieces, was really dead?

No, it wasn’t!

Certainly not.

“Teng!”

“Teng!”

At the moment Lin Yuan approached, the two halves of the Chaos Star Beast, which seemed powerless and sprawled on the ground, suddenly soared into the air, their tentacles reaching out towards Lin Yuan.

Playing dead?

Realizing this, Lin Yuan was greatly shocked.

Lin Yuan knew that after the Chaos Star Beasts devoured a target, they had the ability to optimize the target’s genes and replicate their abilities.

This ability could be considered an upgraded version of the Void Race’s replication ability.

However, the evolution of these Chaos Star Beasts’ intelligence was indeed incredibly fast.

In just a few days, they evolved from simple intelligence to the point where they could coordinate as a team and play dead.

Given more time, they might even evolve to the point of employing the Thirty-Six Stratagems.

Lin Yuan felt horrified; these Chaos Star Beasts were truly terrifying.

Eradicate.

They must be eradicated.

The Chaos Star Beast, which had been split in two, suddenly launched a surprise attack.

The Chaos Star Beast was fast, and Lin Yuan was equally fast.

After all, this was the Heaven and Earth Arena, Lin Yuan’s home ground.

The moment the halved Chaos Star Beast soared into the air, Lin Yuan’s Human King Sword had already swung out.

“Zheng!”

“Zheng! Zheng!”

Countless sword lights flashed at that moment, and in a short span, Lin Yuan had swung hundreds to thousands of times.

With each sword light, Lin Yuan’s sword, like a butcher dissecting an ox, fell upon the two halves of the Chaos Star Beast.

Then, the continuous “Swish, Swish, Swish” sounds echoed nonstop.

Chunks of Chaos Star Beast’s flesh fell from the air.

In a brief moment, the Chaos Star Beast, originally cut into two, turned into a thousand pieces.

At this point, the Chaos Star Beast resembled the ingredients for grilled squid.

The halved Chaos Star Beast could still move, but once turned into a thousand pieces, it could not.

All vitality of this Chaos Star Beast had been severed by Lin Yuan.

With remnants of sword Qi, the fragments of the Chaos Star Beast could no longer coalesce into form.

In the next moment, those thousand pieces of the Chaos Star Beast’s corpse turned into a puddle of black water at a visible speed.

According to Lin Yuan’s understanding of the Chaos Star Beasts, when the body turns into black water, it becomes their final posthumous strike.

That is, their ultimate weapon.

The ultimate weapon, the most powerful strike the Chaos Star Beast could unleash in its lifetime.

A thousand fragments turned into black water, the black water condensed into a giant finger.

The finger pointed towards Lin Yuan.

Seeing the finger, Lin Yuan thought, how could this finger, no matter how powerful, be more potent than the Abyssal Prison Finger?

In the face of the Chaos Star Beast’s dying counterattack, Lin Yuan was utterly unafraid.

Do not forget, this was in Lin Yuan’s Heaven and Earth Arena.

The Heaven and Earth Arena was a formation barrier Lin Yuan created, inspired by the Returning Ruins Arena.

Although the Heaven and Earth Arena stemmed from the Returning Ruins Arena, it could be said to surpass it.

If the Returning Ruins Arena had so many wonders, Lin Yuan’s Heaven and Earth Arena naturally wouldn’t fall short.

Regarding how to deal with the Chaos Star Beasts’ dying counterattack, Lin Yuan already had a plan.

Lin Yuan was confident that the Chaos Star Beasts would fail to gain from their sneak attacks.

The pitch-black giant finger, carrying immense force, pointed towards Lin Yuan.

Lin Yuan stood there unmoved, with no intention of defending or dodging.

Lin Yuan now had a hint of ‘He is strong, let him be strong, the breeze blows on the hill’ demeanor.

The pitch-black giant finger arrived instantaneously, reaching Lin Yuan.

However, when the giant black finger touched Lin Yuan, it bizarrely passed through his body and then disappeared.

Before the shock could settle in, the giant black finger reappeared in another direction, striking a Chaos Star Beast.

One must know, this giant black finger was the Chaos Star Beast’s dying counterattack, their strongest strike.

Its attack power far exceeded that of an ordinary Chaos Star Beast.

“Boom!”

With a huge sound, the Chaos Star Beast struck by the black giant finger exploded directly, bursting into countless fragments.

Subsequently, this Chaos Star Beast also turned into a puddle of black water.

Just earlier, Lin Yuan had used the Heaven and Earth Arena’s ability, killing two Chaos Star Beasts with one plan.

Then, an awkward situation arose.

The unlucky Chaos Star Beast, struck by the black giant finger and exploded, stood there as a puddle of black water.

One could clearly see that this puddle of black water was somewhat at a loss.

According to the normal process, it should use its ultimate weapon; this puddle of black water should condense an organ to attack Lin Yuan.

However, the lesson of the past was right in front of it.

Just now, its companion unleashed a deadly strike on Lin Yuan, yet it wasn’t Lin Yuan who died, but rather itself!

This meant that if it unleashed its ultimate strike, another companion would die.

The Chaos Star Beasts felt they were trapped by Lin Yuan, caught in a glitch, and didn’t know what to do for a moment.

Now, this unfortunate Chaos Star Beast was as paralyzed as if it had crashed.

“Roar!”

“Roar! Roar!”

With the distinctive roars of the Chaos Star Beasts echoing, the Chaos Star Beasts besieging Lin Yuan seemed to receive a call, their tentacles wriggling towards the puddle of black water.

These Chaos Star Beasts quickly absorbed the puddle of black water; the unlucky Chaos Star Beast did not manage to unleash its ultimate strike but was devoured by its companions.
