“Chapter 984: What if you add us?”
The red-haired woman didn't waste any breath.
Pinpointing Mr. Duan's location, she suddenly exerted force with her legs.
The ruins beneath her feet instantly shattered and exploded, kicking up a sky-full of dust.
A sonic boom suddenly rang out.
Guren transformed into a crimson streak of light, moving at extreme speed.
She didn't test the waters; her very first move was a Peak fatal technique.
Her right fist was clenched tight, and red energy rapidly gathered at her knuckles.
"Die for me!"
Guren let out an angry roar, her fist smashing straight toward Mr. Duan's face.
The dilapidated buildings along the way were instantly flattened by the wind of her punch.
Bo Ning, hiding in the dark, held his breath.
He knew Guren's destructive power all too well; once this female god of war, who had once slaughtered her way through the beast tide, flew into a rage, she wouldn't care about the consequences at all.
Facing this punch, Mr. Duan still stood in place.
He didn't move his footsteps a single fraction.
Just as the fist was about to smash into the tip of his nose, Mr. Duan slowly raised his right hand.
He didn't activate any skills, just casually extended an index finger and gently tapped forward.
"Hum—"
The fingertip collided with the fist.
There was no explosion or roar.
Guren's power vanished without a trace the instant it touched Mr. Duan's fingertip.
An invisible, black High-Dimensional Law rippled out from his fingertip, directly assimilating and annihilating the red energy.
"This is impossible!" Guren's eyes widened.
She knew Mr. Duan was strong, but she hadn't expected her full-strength strike to be blocked by the opponent with a single finger.
"Too slow." Mr. Duan's voice was calm.
Before his voice even faded, Mr. Duan's finger flicked slightly.
A massive rebound force rolled backward along her arm.
Guren was struck in the chest by this force, her entire body flying backward, crashing through a dozen or so buildings consecutively, and smashing heavily into the ground several thousand meters away, creating a giant crater.
Bo Ning watched from afar with a startled heart.
A single finger!
Using just a single finger, he repelled the Peak SSS-grade Guren.
Just what level had Mr.'s current strength reached?
At the bottom of the giant crater, gravel shattered and burst.
Guren soared into the sky, her clothes damaged, blood overflowing from the corner of her mouth, yet the madness in her eyes grew increasingly intense.
"Crimson Slaughter Domain! Open!"
Guren roared up to the sky.
Red energy gushed out from her body, sweeping across the ruins within a radius of dozens of miles.
The sky was dyed blood-red, and the earth turned into a sea of blood.
Within this Domain, all her attributes skyrocketed, and her blood transformed into fatal blades.
"Kill! Kill! Kill!"
Guren held her hands in a void grip, and two giant battle blades condensed from high-dimensional red energy appeared in her hands.
Stepping on the sea of blood, she launched a frantic hacking and slashing attack at Mr. Duan from all directions.
"Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang!"
The sounds of metal collisions rang out densely, and sparks flew in all directions.
Mr. Duan finally moved.
Holding the black cane in one hand, he casually parried around his body.
Every swing accurately struck the weak points of the battle blades.
No matter how fierce Guren's offense was, Mr. Duan calmly resolved all attacks.
His movements were leisurely, as if he were guiding a beginner's swordsmanship.
"All brute strength, utterly devoid of method."
Mr. Duan shook his head.
The black cane in his hand thumped downward, striking into the Void Realm.
"Crack—"
A crisp shattering sound rang out.
A Transcendent Law spread in all directions centered on the cane.
Guren's Crimson Slaughter Domain instantly filled with cracks in front of this Law, collapsing with a roar and dissipating into red spots of light.
Her Domain shattered, and Guren suffered the backlash of the Law, spitting out a large mouthful of fresh blood as her body uncontrollably plummeted toward the ground.
Before she even hit the ground, Mr. Duan had already appeared above her.
He raised his right foot and stepped on Guren's back.
"Boom!"
Accompanied by a loud noise, Guren was stepped toward the ground by this force.
The earth trembled violently, and a hundreds-of-meters-wide meteorite crater formed instantly.
In the end, the red-haired woman was stepped underfoot by Mr. Duan.
Mr. Duan looked down at her, with no murderous intent in his eyes, only helplessness.
Mr. Duan teased jokingly: "Guren, you still haven't improved at all."
"Doing things rashly and disregarding the consequences."
Guren, stepped into the mud, let out a hoarse roar.
Her eyes turned reddish, and red gas continuously billowed from her body.
In order to defeat the enemy before her, she over-drew everything without hesitation.
Power surged within her body, Guren's hands bracing the ground desperately, her bones emitting an unbearable "crack, crack" sound.
She actually wanted to stand up against Mr. Duan's foot.
One inch, two inches.
Under Guren's full-blown burst, Mr. Duan's foot was actually slowly pushed upward by an arc by her.
Mr. Duan looked at the struggling Guren beneath his feet and shook his head slightly.
He exerted a little force in his leg.
"Bang!"
An even stronger High-Dimensional Gravity poured down along the soles of his shoes, stepping Guren back into the ground.
This time, the surrounding ground directly collapsed by dozens of meters, and Guren's body was firmly embedded in the rock layer, unable to move, her bones broken.
Only then did the missing Bo Ning appear once more.
He pushed the Speed Law to its absolute limit, forcibly cutting into the battlefield, grabbing Guren's shoulder, and rescuing her from beneath Mr. Duan's feet.
The two instantly retreated to the edge of the ruins a thousand meters away.
At this moment, Guren was completely red all over.
The surface of her skin radiated extreme heat, and even the surrounding air was distorted by the heat wave.
This was the manifestation of her life Origin burning to the absolute extreme.
She harbored extremely powerful strength within her; if it completely erupted, it would be enough to raze this patch of ruins to the ground.
She struggled to steady herself, staring fixedly at Mr. Duan in the distance, wanting to go up again, but was grabbed and stopped by Bo Ning.
"Let me go!" Guren roared, trying to shake off Bo Ning's hand.
Bo Ning locked his grip tightly onto Guren's arm, refusing to let go no matter how badly the high temperature scalded his own hands until the flesh split open.
"You are far from being his opponent!" Bo Ning shouted loudly, his voice carrying a trace of anxiety and powerlessness, "Mr.'s strength is far more terrifying than it used to be!"
He saw it very clearly; just now, Mr. Duan hadn't gotten serious at all.
If Guren rushed up again, she would undoubtedly die without a doubt.
Unconvinced, Guren shouted at the top of her lungs, "So what?!"
"Even if I die, I'll beat him to death!"
She pointed at Mr. Duan in the distance, her eyes filled with madness and hatred.
"I can't beat him, join forces with me, let's go together!"
Guren turned her head to look at Bo Ning, roaring loudly.
They had once been his most loyal subordinate generals.
In The Eighth World, they had followed Mr. Duan through battles across the land, viewing him as their faith and deity.
Yet in the end, it was this very deity who personally destroyed the world they had died to protect.
This hatred from the collapse of their faith was more painful than death.
Facing Guren's roar, Bo Ning's face was filled with bitterness.
He glanced at Mr. Duan, whose expression was calm in the distance.
Bo Ning gave a bitter smile: "Even with me added, I'm afraid we still won't be Mr.'s opponent."
This wasn't cowardice, but a sober realization of the gap in strength.
The chasm between a Transcendent and SSS-grade could not be bridged by mere numbers and anger.
On the distant ruins, Mr. Duan looked at Guren.
Looking at that appearance of hers, willing to tear a piece of meat off him even if it meant being smashed to pieces.
Mr. Duan's eyes were slightly dazed.
It was as if he saw the past, when this rash young girl had been equally fearless of death.
On the front lines fighting strange beasts in The Eighth World, whenever they encountered a desperate situation, Guren was always the first to rush forward, tearing open a bloody path for everyone with a life-risking fighting style.
She was just too stubborn; once she set her mind on something, eight horses couldn't pull her back.
It was like that back then, and it's like that now.
Bo Ning watched Guren still struggling desperately, wanting to persuade her a couple of lines to calm down and conserve her strength.
However, at this moment, a roaring sound suddenly came from high above in the sky.
"Rumble—"
The spatial barrier was forcibly torn apart, and three figures flew over rapidly, hovering above Guren and Bo Ning.
Coercion swept across the entire scene, and gravel on the ground flew wildly across the sky.
Each of them possessed the strength of a Peak SSS-grade.
The three people's gazes locked onto Mr. Duan in the distance, and the power of Law surged around their bodies.
"What if you add us?"
"Is there any possibility of fighting Mr.?"
