Chapter 587 - 284: Damn! Is This a World Dominator?

Two days later

Near the mountain cave where Ye Mingqiu resided, seven towering light pillars suddenly rose. Each pillar was connected by solid barriers, and the dazzling golden light illuminated the surrounding dark space, making it conspicuously prominent within the world of the Black Prison.

Ye Mingqiu slowly walked out of the cave, holding the blood spear, which had absorbed a large amount of energy, in his hand. He looked toward the demon race stationed in formation afar, feeling somewhat conflicted.

He had long known about these aliens near the resting mountain cave but was always curious about their intentions. With the confidence to counter any moves, he paid little mind, wanting to see what tricks they could pull off.

It seems now...

Do they intend to lock me up and attack?

Ye Mingqiu could sense hostility, thus knowing someone was up to something outside the cave, but was unclear which specific alien race was responsible.

The Blood Erosion Tyrant’s gaze scanned the front, where a group of Dominators clad in demon race attire emerged conspicuously, with a man holding an unsheathed long blade standing at the forefront.

[Yuanxu (Level 10 Dominator)]

[Race: Demon Race]

[Life: 23500]

[Four-dimensional Attributes: Power: 660, Agility: 540, Constitution: 580, Spirit: 330]

[Abilities: Swordsmanship Mastery, Yama Blade...]

Clearly, he was a powerful Leader Level figure with swordsmanship reached Master Level, a Tier Two Domain. His strength was imposing but... just so.

On the other hand, Yuanxu’s aura was astonishingly strong. With the long blade in hand, he stepped forward with piercing eyes towards the Blood Erosion Tyrant, speaking, "Are you the Blood Erosion Tyrant? You don’t seem that strong."

"Oh?"

Ye Mingqiu raised an eyebrow, feeling amused yet restrained himself as he replied, "Oh, are you very strong?"

"Of course, I am the strongest of this generation, having defeated World Level Dominators in the past."

"So?"

The smile on Ye Mingqiu’s face remained as he asked, "Do you think other World Level Dominators can compare to me, or do you believe I’m just another useless one of that caliber?"

"No need to bluff. The strong among the silicon-based lifeforms have already confirmed; you possess no [God] traits. Without these traits, even top fighters can’t grasp the authority’s power on their own nor approach Authority Deity Level."

Pausing for a moment, Yuanxu displayed an immensely unrestrained smile and continued, "That means your strength has a definite limit; no matter how high your body basic potential is, you can’t exceed that limit."

"..."

Ye Mingqiu didn’t deny it, as Yuanxu’s words were indeed true, a fact acknowledged by all top strangers and spiritualists.

In reality, before leaving the cave, he spent a full 0.06 seconds in profound thought about whether to showcase his strength after appearing, whether to continue veiling power.

And the answer was, No!

Ye Mingqiu’s goal was to grow stronger, to be himself, freely do what he wished, witness more spectacles, experience more fascinating things—that was his aim.

Diminishing himself for short-term gain, pretending failure—it was opposite to his innermost self, and he wouldn’t curtail himself for such reason.

That’s outright foolish!

Thus, the Blood Erosion Tyrant manifested a smile, retrieving the blood spear from the Storage Space with a menacing crimson shaft emanating horrifying fierceness. Scarlet crystal patterns spread up his arm, igniting a blood flame.

He raised the blood spear, directly pointing at Yuanxu, stating, "Ten blood-related Tier Two treasures, or death."

"Do you think I’m like others, just a lamb for slaughter by you? You’re underestimating me too much."

Yuanxu assumed a combat stance, eyes serious, utterly fearless.

Before the official battle, he had already acquired specific intelligence from the Flame Giant King Fen Shan, and that intelligence, verified by the Spirit Realm, was absolutely true.

The Blood Erosion Tyrant’s basic attributes are high, power relatively ordinary, but his combat speed terrifying, speed feeling more formidable than power.

This was precisely the verified result.

Considering Fen Shan is a power-oriented giant, Yuanxu deemed the Blood Erosion Tyrant as an overall strong fighter, less powerful than Fen Shan but significantly faster, believing speed was key.

....

In the far-off giant settlement, the Flame Giant King Fen Shan bore a bright smile, muttering lowly to himself, "Idiot, you must never have dreamed that I had already taken medicine before the battle started!"

"The combat experience I acquired is all based on being medicated, not from fighting in a normal state! Besides, you didn’t ask, and I didn’t say; there’s no problem, the Spirit Realm only checks for lies, not for omissions!"

"Yuanxu, you’re likely thinking he’s a regular top World Level Dominator. He’s far from it!"

"Hahaha!"

"What’s even more critical, this guy’s blood spear requires energy digestion, about a week to absorb."

"So, I negotiated with you for days, allowing the blood spear to absorb power, sufficient for strong combat. Haha... hahaha! Just dying to see your expression in battle with the Blood Erosion Tyrant, hahaha! Bastard... let you taste what real pain is!"

....

"Ha!"

The Blood Erosion Tyrant roared explosively, unleashing the fourfold abilities: [War Roar], [Royal Majesty], [Beast Blood Boiling], and [Violent Blood].

At the next instant, in Yuanxu’s momentary unconsciousness, the Blood Erosion Tyrant activating [Furious Pursuit] instantly reached him, the blood spear sweeping a scarlet arc, with the spear tip straight for his heart.
