Chapter 517 - 324: Becoming a Legend

After devouring the black-haired elder, Su Ze’s body was now nearly three hundred meters tall. When he used Rhino Charge, the sight was staggering—like a massive mountain smashing right into your face!

The white-haired youth tried to stop Su Ze, unleashing various attacks and crowd control abilities, but the upgraded Rhino Charge skill granted immunity to all damage and control effects during its charge.

At this moment, Su Ze was unstoppable!

Seeing this, Mr. Kang turned and fled with incredible speed, even using a Substitute Skill as a decoy. However, once the sixth-tier Rhino Charge locked onto a target, it wasn’t so easily fooled.

Seeing that he couldn’t shake Su Ze, Mr. Kang resorted to his old trick and turned back into a pool of blood. His skill was remarkably similar to Su Ze’s Liquid Clone in that it offered excellent resistance to physical attacks.

The pool of blood scattered and fled in all directions, making it difficult for Su Ze’s Rhino Charge to pinpoint a target. After all, every single drop of blood was considered part of the locked target. At this rate, Su Ze would only end up charging toward the largest clump.

But it was a trick he had already used once. Su Ze had no intention of letting him get away with it a second time.

His Gravity Domain spread out. Its powerful gravitational force pulled the scattered droplets of blood back together, leaving them no room to escape.

BAM!

Su Ze’s massive, several-hundred-meter-tall body crashed into the pool of blood. It felt a bit like using an anti-aircraft cannon to shoot a mosquito.

It was a good thing Su Ze was using his gravity to hold the pool of blood in place; otherwise, Mr. Kang would have been sent flying into the sky.

The impact damage from a sixth-tier Rhino Charge alone was not to be underestimated. If Mr. Kang hadn’t been in his liquid state, that one collision would have been enough to shatter his body, or even tear it to pieces.

However, the Dizziness effect still took hold. Mr. Kang, in his blood-pool form, was afflicted with Dizziness and temporarily lost consciousness.

Su Ze seized the opportunity to unleash his ultimate move. His "Strongest Punch"—a fusion of the three skills "Needle Strike," Furious Waves, and Impact Cannon (Electric Current Cannon)—was ready.

In truth, the upgraded "Strongest Punch" could fuse four skills, but Su Ze couldn’t find a fourth one to use unless he copied someone else’s attack with "Real-Time Simulation."

But there was no need.

Mr. Kang wouldn’t be able to withstand this blow. Adding another skill would just be overkill; the damage was already more than enough.

As a pool of blood, Mr. Kang had an absurdly high resistance to physical attacks, but Su Ze’s "Strongest Punch" was not a purely physical skill.

It contained the explosion and poison of "Needle Strike," the Air Wave Attack of Furious Waves, the electric shock of the Electric Current Cannon, and the "Annihilation" effect from the Ant Power skill.

All sorts of lights flashed on Su Ze’s massive fist as electric currents arced across its surface.

BOOM!

As the fist fell, a torrent of different energies erupted, the effects of multiple skills weaving together.

The tremendous impact shattered the ground, creating a spiderweb of cracks from which groundwater spewed forth.

And under this punch, the pool of blood that was Mr. Kang began to evaporate, turning into a crimson mist.

Vaguely, the onlookers thought they could hear Mr. Kang’s agonizing screams coming from within the blood.

Amidst a SIZZLING sound, the blood pool that was Mr. Kang completely evaporated, leaving not a single trace behind.

With a soft THUD, a pile of items appeared on the ground. Evidently, Mr. Kang’s storage item had also been destroyed, spilling its contents.

The Blood Spirits that had been swarming and gnawing at Su Ze also vanished in an instant.

Su Ze casually collected the loot from the ground, but a sliver of doubt entered his mind.

After killing Mr. Kang, his Bloodthirsty skill had indeed absorbed and converted a significant amount of flesh and blood energy. His Artifact Seed also conveyed a sense of pleasure. All of this should have proven that Mr. Kang was dead.

And yet, the amount of flesh and blood energy converted from Mr. Kang was noticeably less than what he’d gotten from the black-haired elder earlier.

Both were Venerable Powerhouses—in fact, Mr. Kang was the stronger of the two. This was very strange.

Su Ze had a faint suspicion... ’Mr. Kang must have a resurrection skill!’

It wasn’t surprising for a Venerable Powerhouse like Mr. Kang to have a resurrection ability. After all, even the Dominator-level Bai Guishou had revived multiple times, and Mr. Ya also possessed a resurrection skill.

Su Ze didn’t care if Mr. Kang could revive. In fact, he’d be happy to see a stronger Filth Earth Organization wear down the Alien Party’s forces a little more.

He turned to look for the white-haired youth. With both Mr. Kang and the black-haired elder dead by his hand, the youth was the only opponent he had left.

But as it turned out, the white-haired youth had long since retreated to a safe distance, rejoining his other six teammates.

What a joke. They had gone three-on-one, and two of them had died. As if he had the guts to challenge Su Ze by himself now.

By crushing two Venerable Powerhouses from the Filth Earth Organization, Su Ze had once again evened the numbers on the battlefield between them and the experts from Lin Hua Country.

Counting Su Ze on Lin Hua Country’s side, the score was now seven versus seven.

However, it was obvious that Su Ze couldn’t be treated as just another Venerable Powerhouse.

Since Su Ze’s previous alternate identity had also appeared to die by his own hand, from everyone else’s perspective, he had just killed three Venerable Powerhouses in a row.

This struck fear into the hearts of the Filth Earth Organization’s experts. They had thought victory was assured, that they held every advantage. But they never expected Su Ze’s arrival to turn the tables so dramatically. In the blink of an eye, their advantage had become a crippling disadvantage.

The seven remaining Venerable Powerhouses from the Filth Earth Organization all stopped fighting, disengaged, and assumed defensive postures.

Su Ze casually electrocuted a few Corrupted Ones from a distance to sustain his Bloodthirsty skill, then slowly ascended into the air.

The seven Venerable Powerhouses from the Filth Earth Organization tensed up as if facing a mortal enemy. Their hair stood on end, like frightened cats.

Su Ze had killed three of their own in a row. His ferocious display of power was overwhelming, striking terror into their hearts.

Even the two Legendary Powerhouses fighting in the sky couldn’t help but spare Su Ze a few glances. This was especially true for Pulamon; that dark-skinned fellow’s eyes gleamed with a vicious light, as if he wanted to swallow Su Ze whole.

By now, all the civilians on the ground who could flee had done so. Those who hadn’t managed to escape were mostly dead. Still, a good number of people watched the battle from a great distance.

The power level of this battle was simply too high. Without the strength of a Saint-level Dominator, one couldn’t even get involved. Even Dominators were just glorified spectators, and anyone without the power of a Venerable Powerhouse could have no impact on the outcome.

Thus, many Evolvers who had not yet reached the Saint level could only watch from a distance.

A few knew what was happening, but the vast majority were still in the dark, with no idea what had caused this apocalyptic battle to break out.

In the crowd, a blond man carrying a sword on his back watched with a complicated expression, his eyes fixed on the figure that towered hundreds of meters tall in the distant sky.

Su Ze’s sheer size made him even more eye-catching than the two Legendary Powerhouses battling high above.

’Has the gap between us really grown this large...?’ Yarlin sighed, crestfallen. A sense of defeat nearly consumed him.

He had heard all sorts of news about Su Ze, but only now, seeing him in person, did he truly understand the chasm that separated them.

Just a few months ago, he had competed against Su Ze on the stage of the Six-Nation Top Academy Exchange Tournament. Although he had been soundly defeated, he hadn’t felt that Su Ze was completely out of his league.

But now, while he was still only at the Butterfly Stage, Su Ze had already become a Venerable Powerhouse—a being he could only look up to in awe.

Even his own master, the Venerable Powerhouse known as "Saint Sword" Adams, was intimidated by Su Ze’s ferocious power and kept a wide berth.

’Some people are destined to be impossible to catch. You can only watch from afar as they walk the path to becoming a legend...’ At that moment, Yarlin finally accepted this reality.
