111 Red Lotus Battle Energy Upgrade!
Outside the East End Dojo, a group of cultivators watching the show trembled in fear when they saw the East End Dojo turn into a sea of fire and heard the loud roars of the Fearsome Beast.
“What a terrifying sound. I’m scared out of my wits. This is the power of an S-class Fearsome Beast!”
“Oh my god! There’s actually an S-class Fearsome Beast in the inner city of Lunan City!”
These cultivators retreated again and again in fear, and prayed in their hearts that Lu Yu would slay this S-class Fearsome Beast. Otherwise, if this Fearsome Beast slaughtered its way out of the East End Dojo, Lunan City would be inundated by a major catastrophe.
In the East End Dojo, the battle became more and more intense.
The Skyfire Red Lion erupted with incredibly violent power and ruthlessly crashed into Lu Yu. In that instant, fiery flames swept out, turning into fiery flame vines that jabbed at Lu Yu’s limbs.
The Dragon Blood Battle Saber and the Blood Emperor Battle Saber were unsheathed at the same time. Lu Yu held the two battle sabers in his hands and slashed out fiercely, cutting off all the fiery flame vines.
He then activated the Great Dao Heaven Devouring Skill, the Furnace skill, and the Enhanced Critical Hit all at once!
His health vitality was transformed into strength, thereby doubling his strength. His Enhanced Critical Hit had reached 60%!
The blades of the two sabers stabbed into the Skyfire Red Lion’s body at the same time. Lu Yu’s body recoiled violently. Just as he was shocked by the tough skin and thick flesh of the Skyfire Red Lion, two streams of boiling hot blood splashed onto his body.
He felt a burning pain coming from his skin and two bumps appeared.
[Ding! Detected that host has absorbed the blood of the Skyfire Red Lion. Received: Health Vitality +1166!]
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt[Ding! Detected that host has absorbed the blood of the Skyfire Red Lion. Received: Bloodlust (A-class)]
Rather than saying that Lu Yu had obtained it, it was more appropriate to say that the skill Bloodlust had upgraded itself from B-class to A-class.
[Bloodlust]
[Level: A-class]
Introduction: Passive skill. After encountering blood in battle, it can automatically absorb it to recover its strength and blood vitality, and then activate the Bloodlust state!
After leveling up, the skill Bloodlust gained an additional Bloodlust state.
Lu Yu rolled backwards, only to see the Blood Emperor Battle Saber absorbing the blood of the Skyfire Red Lion like crazy. The blade turned crimson like a red-hot iron, emitting a series of shrill saber wails.
The Skyfire Red Lion roared in fury when it felt the pain and the two sabers were shaken out of its body.
Lu Yu reacted quickly and grabbed the two sabers. At that moment, he felt that the Blood Emperor Battle Saber in his left hand was scorchingly hot.
[Blood Emperor Battle Saber]
[Level: A+-class]
[Introduction: After absorbing a large amount of the Skyfire Red Lion’s blood, the potential of the Blood Emperor Battle Saber has been triggered, allowing it to possess fire-attribute abilities. It can absorb fire-attribute power. Combined with fire-attribute skills, its power will multiply.]
The string of text that appeared in front of him invigorated Lu Yu. He took up the Blood Emperor Battle Saber and jumped high into the air suddenly before stabbing down viciously at the Skyfire Red Lion.
In a flash, the Red Lotus Battle Energy was activated, and a ball of Red Lotus True Fire wrapped around the blade. The Blood Emperor Battle Saber emitted a bright red light which turned into a ball of fiery flames. It then condensed into a ten meter-long fiery flame blade energy that slashed out.
Sensing the power of this slash, the Skyfire Red Lion’s eyes immediately burned with fiery flames. The fire-attribute strength in its whole body surged, and it spat out a pillar of fire from its mouth.
The blade energy comprising fiery flames split the pillar of fire in half instantly and absorbed it all!
Another slash of the saber landed on the Skyfire Red Lion’s head, causing a bloody gash to appear. Blood immediately gushed out like river streams. The Skyfire Red Lion felt the pain and roared like it had gone berserk before charging madly towards Lu Yu.
Lu Yu got a big shock.
It was well-known that the hardest bone in the entire body of a Fearsome Beast was its skull. To think that the power of this slash was strong enough to split its skull wide open was way beyond his expectations.
Gravitational Force activated!
A gravitational field spread out. The Skyfire Red Lion’s body froze on the spot, and its movements slowed to a crawl.
Lu Yu currently possessed many skills. In battle, he could change his strategy according to the situation. It could be said that his combat style was much more flexible than before.
Under the suppression of the Gravitational Force, the Skyfire Red Lion was horrified to discover that its speed was greatly restricted, while the human in front of it relied on his speed advantage to injure it blade after blade.
As for the beast itself, it was unable to counter-attack its opponent. Under such circumstances, where the beast steadily declined while its adversary steadily flourished, it was only a matter of time before the beast was killed.
The Skyfire Red Lion pulled out all the stops to attack. With a loud roar directed at the ground, the ground trembled and numerous cracks appeared. Countless fire pillars soared into the sky before gathering rapidly to transform into spheres of fiery flames, which then smashed down to the ground like a meteorite.
The terrifying power that erupted made Song Yu and Qin Yong turn pale with fright. They hurriedly led the cultivators from the Central Dojo and retreated as far as a hundred meters away.
8-directional Cleave!
Lu Yu roared out in his heart and raised the Blood Emperor Battle Saber. The flaming red blade was like a bottomless pit, absorbing all the fiery flames greedily.
The sea of fire rapidly shrank, and the temperature of the Blood Emperor Battle Saber reached a thousand degrees.
Eight shafts of blade energy that contained a scorching aura instantly slashed down, slicing the Skyfire Red Lion into eight pieces.
After breaking through to the Great Grand Master level, it was no longer as strenuous for Lu Yu to slay S-class Fearsome Beasts as before.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm[Ding! Detected that host has killed the Skyfire Red Lion. Received: Seed of Skyfire, already fused with Red Lotus Battle Energy (S-class)]
Lu Yu was overjoyed. He hadn’t expected that after fusing with the Skyfire Red Lion’s Skyfire Seed, his Red Lotus Battle Energy would advance to S-class.
[Red Lotus Battle Energy]
[Level: S-class]
[Introduction: Due to fusing with the Seed of Skyfire, its ability has increased. After activation, it will form the Red Lotus Fire Domain and isolate the user from the outside world. In the Red Lotus Fire Domain, all fire-attribute powers will receive a 50% increase in strength and water-attribute powers will be reduced by 50% in strength.]
Lu Yu was absolutely delighted with the S-class Red Lotus Battle Energy.
In particular, this Red Lotus Fire Domain not only increased the powers with the fire-attribute, but it also reduced the powers with the water-attribute. It was simply the nemesis of water-attribute powers.
As for the corpse and crystal core of this Skyfire Red Lion, Lu Yu stored them inside his interspatial ring. These were great ingredients for nourishment. After cooking them with the Sky Valley Culinary Method, they could replenish a lot of health vitality and strength.
In the aftermath, the cultivators in the Central Dojo took stock of the area amidst the charred ruins.
This East End Dojo was now completely demolished!
At the side, Song Yu pondered and said, “From the signs of living conditions in the basement, it seems that the East End Dojo raised the Fearsome Beast themselves but ended up reaping a tragic outcome from their evil deed and got devoured instead. However, judging from the emptied treasure vault, could it be that the East End Dojo had already been robbed before this and the perpetrator also released the Skyfire Red Lion in the process?”
This speculation was also the most reasonable. Not only did the people in the Central Dojo believe it, but the cultivators watching the show outside also agreed wholeheartedly.
“This is too fucking crazy. From the looks of it, the East End Dojo must have raised an S-class Skyfire Red Lion themselves.”
“Damn! This is an S-class Fearsome Beast. How dare they? If they suffer a backlash, the entire Lunan City will be in danger as well.”
“This kind of dojo deserves to be destroyed!”
They were deeply grateful to Lu Yu. It was Lu Yu who had slain the Skyfire Red Lion and nipped the impending disaster in the bud.
“In my opinion, the remaining two dojos and the City Lord’s Office are not of good character either. I support the Honorable Mr. Lu to take revenge and replace them!”
Such calls became increasingly more vociferous. All these years, they had suffered much oppression. It was time to give Lunan City a refreshing makeover.
As for Lu Yu, who had just slain the Skyfire Red Lion, he was secretly glad that he hadn’t been careless. Otherwise, the consequences would have been unimaginable.
