Chapter 272: 141 Finishing Move: Demon Lion Roar Sword_2

In a moment, another Lion King Roar emerged, stacking over the previous one.

The terrifying momentum spread inch by inch through the air, like invisible, delicate, transparent tendrils sweeping through every corner, exerting a powerful intimidation.

Compared to the Lion Heart Fist Second Layer just now, there was a qualitative change.

Even more, a special ability emerged: a double force.

That is, in a short time, there were two waves of momentum shocks, as if two Shock Bombs had been thrown consecutively in a sealed environment, powerful enough to render someone unconscious.

"Black Flame Lion Heart Fist... impressive!"

Bai Xiao stood in place, murmuring to himself, appraising.

He could feel that, with the Ten Fists Sword and Black Flame Lion Heart Fist, these two secret martial skills reaching Perfection, his strength had taken a leap forward. The Sword Qi brought by the Ten Fists Sword, the black flame and the double force from the Black Flame Lion Heart Fist...

All significantly enhanced Bai Xiao’s offensive capabilities.

"Besides the eldest senior brother."

"I feel that even if the other core disciples of the Fierce Bird Sect were to gang up on me, they wouldn’t be my match..." he said, feeling his newfound power swelling within him.

Of course, this time it wasn’t Bai Xiao’s illusion.

Now, he truly had the capability to defeat the other five combined!

With a click, the door opened.

Bai Xiao saw his master, Chen Liao, quietly standing by.

Chen Liao surveyed Bai Xiao from head to toe in silence. It wasn’t until Bai Xiao left the hall and headed to the Fierce Bird Sect Headquarters cafeteria to replenish his nutrients that he sighed, his expression complex.

"What a monster."

"I actually felt a hint of danger from him..."

Chen Liao was extremely startled; he was beginning to not understand Bai Xiao anymore. That terrifying rate of progress seemed like it couldn’t be categorized as mere genius. It could only be described as a pure Martial Arts freak, a naturally monstrous talent.

Chen Liao was very curious.

That so-called first great hurdle of the Martial Arts cultivation, the Martial Fighter Realm...

How much longer could it possibly hold Bai Xiao back?

Elsewhere, at the headquarters cafeteria.

A figure was sitting alone in a corner, with a table full of delicious food before him.

Bai Xiao was eating heartily by himself.

Yet his entire attention was captivated by something in front of him.

From the moment he stepped out of the secret chamber, a change had occurred. In the profession panel before him, the Martial Artist status bar glimmered as the two secret skills shone faintly.

[Skill: Ten Fists Sword Third Layer (∞/∞)]

[Skill: Black Flame Lion Heart Fist Third Layer (∞/∞)]

The light flickered, subtly syncing to the same frequency, clearly indicating a tendency for the two professional skills to fuse into one before his eyes.

[Finishing Move: Demon Lion Roar Sword]

[Conditions: 1. Ten Fists Sword Perfection √, 2. Black Flame Lion Heart Fist Perfection √]

This was a finishing move corresponding to the Burst State!

The Burst State Hundred Python Swallowing Elephant leaned more towards defense, physique, and Hard Skill.

The finishing move, Demon Lion Roar Sword, undoubtedly was for attack, for slaughter, for annihilation.

And the hint of danger Chen Liao felt in the dojo hall could have been because Bai Xiao mastered the finishing move Demon Lion Roar Sword.

He had not yet experimented because he was worried that using it would directly destroy the entire secret chamber. Hence, Bai Xiao first went to the cafeteria to replenish his energy.

He would talk about maximizing enhancement and strength after eating his fill.

Half an hour passed, and the hearty meal ended.

Bai Xiao downed the refreshing beverage in one gulp and slowly stepped out of the cafeteria.

In his sight lay new changes to the four-dimensional attributes.

[Power: 50.4→58.5]

[Speed: 38.5→43.9]

[Physique: 55.5→62.7]

[Will: 30.0→34.4]

Power +8.1, Speed +5.4, Physique +7.2, Will +4.4.

An exaggerated boost, with even the lowest – will – increasing by 4.4.

Especially the power, with an additional eight attribute points.

This time, after all, 38 potential points were expended, resulting in substantial enhancements – a meteoric rise in all four-dimensional attributes ensued.

In the dead of night, Bai Xiao suddenly left the Fierce Bird Sect Headquarters.

Around 10 o’clock that evening, he arrived at a deserted wilderness.

Around eleven, he returned to the Fierce Bird Sect Headquarters.

He carried with him an air of unexplained confidence and poise.

It was the dangerous feeling of someone carrying a hidden weapon, unexpressed and menacing.

Whoever was the first to cross his path would likely meet a dreadful end.

A night passed, and the dawn once again descended upon the earth.

The morning sun was lifted by the white clouds, countless golden rays piercing through the mist, descending upon the land. The tea-colored glass and roof tiles of the city’s tall buildings reflected the light. Dew on the grass and green leaves evaporated, dancing in the wind.

Huaisui City, the headquarters of the Martial Arts Association, where a golden plaque stood out conspicuously.

A private parking lot on the side of the Association.

An elderly man in a white shirt was silently waiting.

His hair was grizzled, but his body remained robust. The cuffs of his white shirt were rolled up, revealing a pair of thick arms. His skin was rough and dense like sandstone, with veins on the surface resembling dark steel bars.

There was a faint sense of oppression emanating from him.

It was the Chairman of the Martial Arts Association of Huaisui City, An Junhai.

Who could he be waiting for?

Given An Junhai’s status...

Whoever he would personally receive must hold significant power and prestige.

Time ticked away, and after about five minutes...

A black sedan slowly drove through the inner passageway of the Martial Arts Association. The car windows were tinted black. The license plate was not from the locality, but from the capital of Nanjiang Province, clearly indicating that visitors from the provincial capital were arriving.

With a squeak, the sedan stopped in the parking space.

From inside, two formidable figures stepped out.

One with a steady voice, shaking hands, said,

"Chairman An, long time no see."

The other, impatient and direct, got straight to the point,

"An Junhai, this time, the Eastern Headquarters sent me to Huaisui City to assist you. Where is the enemy? Have you identified them? Tu Qi and I will destroy it..."

Across from them, although An Junhai had already known who the visitors were last night,

he was still somewhat surprised to see the two men.

One was none other than Tu Qi, the Vice Chairman of the Martial Arts Association of Nanjiang Province, known for his remarkable prowess, having risen through the ranks from the combat department he once oversaw.

The other man was Tuoba Tian.

He was a master from the Eastern Headquarters, renowned within the Martial Arts World of the Eastern region. Known as Fire Luo Heaven, he had defeated many Sect Leaders of various schools.

He had even served as a judge for one of the Dark World fighting competitions.

This was a testament to his strength.

The higher-ups had actually sent these two to assist him!

An Junhai was pleased, yet he could not fully hide his concern.

Because the more formidable the experts dispatched by the Martial Arts Association became, it indicated that the situation was more severe. It seemed that the entire city of Huaisui was about to face a major crisis!

Currents of uncertainty surged beneath the surface.

Like a time bomb buried underneath the city, ready to detonate at any moment.

...

The sun was sinking in the west, and an orange sunset progressively dipped below the horizon.

The sky was painted with the colors of fire, now being tainted by a deeper darkness.

The moon rose high into the sky.

However, its light did not last long before layers of dark clouds enveloped it, obscuring the moonlight and plunging the entire city into gloom.

Huaisui City remained bustling with bright lights, revelry, and traffic.

The neon lights from skyscrapers, in the silence of the night, were hypnotically enchanting.

This was a testament to human urbanization and technological advancement.

However, on the outskirts, within a cavern...

The starting point of all waves had finally been birthed at this moment!

Ding, ling, ling, ling...

In the empty environment, the soft ringing of countless bells echoed continuously.

But they were not real bells. Instead, they were the rustling of innumerable red crystal branches swinging, a Blood-colored Glass Tree that had grown to a height of eighty meters, with twisted and robust roots spreading across the cavern. The tall canopy had already reached the cave walls, and a blood-plasma-like energy quietly flowed.

Within the transparent trunk, myriad blood-vessel-like threads crisscrossed densely. The blood-colored energy flowed, converging from all directions to the core of the tree’s trunk, where a beating crimson heart was gradually forming.

"It’s here!"

On a concrete platform,

the leader of the Horror Bird Organization suddenly stood up, eyes blazing.

"Yes, it has finally arrived!!!"

Beside him, the elderly man in a black suit, leaning on his cane, had an obsessed glint in his eyes.

At this moment, before their eyes, the Yabadon Life Tree had fully matured!

The third resonance was set to occur an hour after the Yabadon Life Tree reached maturity. At that time, there would be a widespread overlap between reality and the deep world.

What Blood Bird desired, what Charon wished for, was nearly within reach!

"Finally, we’ve waited until this day!"

Turning slowly, Blood Bird’s sleeves and collar exhaled a black mist, forming a massive and ferocious Ghost Face behind him, which cackled madly as if deranged.

Ha ha ha... Ha ha ha...

Amidst this laughter, Blood Bird issued the final command.

"All units move out!"

"Target, the Fierce Bird Sect!!!!"
