UNSTOPPABLE MARTIAL ARTS: STARTING FROM ATTRIBUTE POINTS ALLOCATION
Chapter 937: Chapter 457: Ruins of the Lost Paradise?Chapter 937: Chapter 457: Ruins of the Lost Paradise?
“Is this what you called the lost paradise?”
Ahead, lightning surged and layers of mist and the force of curses interwove, rendering the area a blur of mystery and danger.
A few miles away lay a vast garden, its scope broad and indistinct.
But it was certain that the Heavenly River originated there and was also the source of the curse.
Beside Han Zhong stood a Lei Pi, immense in size, its body glistening with purple scales, emanating a strong blood essence. It resembled a tiger with an ox’s tail, and its roar was like that of a barking dog.
It looked as amazed as if it had seen a ghost, for it had truly laid eyes on the lost paradise.
The Lei Pi’s heart felt furry with fear; its kind had lived in the Heavenly End Secret Realm generation after generation, growing up hearing legends about the Heavenly River and the source of the curse, the lost paradise.
However, generation after generation of its kin, despite enduring numerous hardships, had never made it this far, eventually falling to the curse’s erosion. Over time, they ceased searching for any traces of the lost paradise.
Yet now, this young human, Lu Yun, had managed to resist the curse and arrived here.
Not only that, he had gradually lifted the curse from Lei Pi itself, allowing it to reach this place as well.
The beast had speculated that Han Zhong must have possessed some kind of sacred object that warded off evil, otherwise how could he resist the curse and help it as well?
However, along the way, Han Zhong had never used any such object to dispel the curse, leading Lei Pi to dismiss the idea from its mind, only marveling at the human youth’s mystery and strength.
But soon, anger flared within it again because it had been coerced here by force.
Lei Pi felt deeply humiliated, considering its tribe a powerful one within the Heavenly End Secret Realm, and its Patriarch was one of the top figures in the realm.
As one of the offspring the Patriarch cherished the most, bound to achieve great things, it was captured by that detestable human youth while playing carelessly, and was forcefully pressed into searching for the so-called ruins of the lost paradise.
Han Zhong noticed the creature’s change in demeanor, halted, and glanced at it, “As long as you follow me well, you may one day leave this world and witness an even vaster and boundless one.”
Afterwards, he adjusted his state as the curse’s intensity grew stronger the closer they got to their destination. He needed to make some adjustments to deal with possible calamities ahead.
Lei Pi, too, was regulating its breath and didn’t take his words to heart. Its tribe, and indeed all the fierce beasts of the Heavenly End Secret Realm, had never left this world.
Nevertheless, the lost paradise was a legendary place, surely concealing some secrets. If obtained, perhaps it could provide a chance to break free from this world’s constraints.
Moreover, since Han Zhong could easily defeat it and drag it here unharmed, his divine abilities were undoubtedly powerful, and the possibility of investing in him wasn’t dismissed.
Lu Yun was unaware that the region he had entered was the legendary lost paradise, not only rich in King and Emperor Grade spirit herbs but also a land of creation, with both the Heavenly River and the source of the curse stemming from here.
After searching for nearly half a month, he had accumulated a vast amount of spirit herbs, including over a thousand Ninth Grade spirit herbs, several hundred King Grade, and as many as seven Emperor Grade spirit herbs.
That was only from exploring half of the region.
One could imagine, after completely scouting the entire area, what level his gains would reach.
Not far away, a pair of golden pupils lit up and then, with a quack, a bright dazzling arc of electricity flew towards him.
It was an enormous golden toad, its body covered in huge bumps, with a pair of black horns on its head, it lashed out its long tongue, attempting to strike Lu Yun.
Facing such attacks had become routine for Lu Yun, knowing that this region was home to many exotic beasts proficient in the Dao of Thunder, and totally immune to the curse, enabling them to fully exert their strength.
Before Lu Yun could act, the child beside him, which was the spirit body transformed by the Blood Slaughter Thunder Knife, rushed up to fight the giant golden toad.
An endless surge of blood energy rose like a raging sea, while thunder roared across the dark sky, making it flicker between light and shadow.
It was said that with much thunder, comes little rain, and so it was with the spirit body of the Blood Slaughter Thunder Knife; despite the tumultuous scene it caused, it was beaten into showing its true body in the blink of an eye during the clash.
“You’re too weak,” said Lu Yun as he raised his hand to counter the oncoming toad, colliding with it and forcing it to roar in pain as its tongue was severed, bleeding profusely.
So powerful!
The toad felt a chill in its heart. The tongues of its race were not only flexible at will but also incredibly tough, making them excellent weapons for attack that common fierce beasts couldn’t match.
Yet this member of the Human Race was so formidable.
It opened its massive, bloody maw, and suddenly a huge black hole appeared in the air, covering Lu Yun.
This was one of its race’s great Divine Abilities, Devouring Heaven and Earth, which had claimed the lives of countless predators.
The black hole in mid-air lit up with numerous flashes of thunder, bursting with a strong devouring force, intending to swallow Lu Yun and refine his Physical Body.
This toad possessed the power of the fourth level of the True Spirit Realm, capable of exerting its full strength, which ordinary cultivators absolutely couldn’t handle.
But Lu Yun didn’t take a step back; his whole body was enveloped in electric light as he walked towards the black hole and then punched out.
With a rumbling sound, the black hole shattered and he walked out unscathed.
The golden giant toad spat blood from its mouth, staggered back, full of shock and fear, as this man had easily broken its Divine Ability.
“Roar!” It raged, its eyes filled with ferocity, and the large bumps on its back burst open, unleashing endless thunder, transforming into chains pervaded with the thick power of a Curse.
This was a secret technique inherited by its race, where all of the essence of its body was gathered in the bumps on its back, suppressing itself, continuously strengthening and enhancing until the day when it all burst forth, multiplying its strength many times over.
“This secret technique does indeed have something to it,” Lu Yun said in surprise, his expression growing a bit solemn.
Here, he had expended most of his energy combating the Curse’s power, and could only exert about sixty percent of his strength. Facing the all-out assault of the toad Fierce Beast, he had to treat it with utmost seriousness.
Even so, with a wave of his hand, Divine Power surged out and his body was covered in resplendent Runes, with Thunder rolling, causing the Void to tremble with a humming sound.
This time, he traded blows with the toad Fierce Beast dozens of times before gradually suppressing it and gaining the upper hand.
Once he took the initiative, he fought more and more bravely, and as the Fifth Layer of the Dao of Thunder unfolded, its power reached the heavens.
The toad’s pores opened and blood oozed out as it burned its own essence, going completely berserk in a fight to the death with Lu Yun.
“End it!” said Lu Yun coldly. He didn’t want to delay any longer. A long battle placed a great strain on him, and he needed to settle it quickly.
After the bumps on the toad Fierce Beast’s back burst, releasing a powerful force and multiplying the strength of its secret technique by several times, it still gradually lost to Lu Yun and was finally killed by a lightning spear.
It fell unwillingly, with its eyes fierce until death, slowly collapsing to the ground.
Lu Yun shook his head. This toad, like other fierce beasts, chose to fight to the death rather than retreat despite not being wise. He wondered if it was because of the Curse’s power at this place.
Then, he solidified the Hell Furnace and commenced its Refinement.
This was a fourth-level True Spirit Realm Fierce Beast. Refining it into a life source was enough to complete the transformation of tens of thousands of Elephant Microparticles.
“Boom!”
Lu Yun took a step forward, moving towards what lay ahead, his Divine Power rolling, forming a sphere of light around him to combat the thunder and the Curse.
In the following period, he continued searching for spirit herbs while also being cautious of potential dangers in this place.
He didn’t consider himself invincible, especially after learning that all the fierce beasts here were not afraid of the Curse’s power and were determined to fight to the death upon encounter, so he dared not be careless.
More than the threat of the fierce beasts, what concerned him more was that the Curse’s force became denser the deeper he ventured. Every step further into the depths doubled the physical strain on his body.
Had it not been for the possibility of finding more spirit herbs deeper within, Lu Yun would have given up on going any further.
“Only a third of the region is left,” Lu Yun gritted his teeth, his Divine Power surged, forming a sphere of light that enveloped him, combating the dense and powerful Curse’s force as he continued to move forward.
