Chapter 683: Chapter 422: S-Class Crimson Monster! Black Tiger Lord! (Part 2)

Chishan’s eyes were blood-red, bursting with extreme resentment. Ten sharp nails tore through the air, drawing ten intersecting crimson streaks, attempting to tear apart this deadly strike.

However, this desperate struggle in the face of an absolute realm gap was no different from a futile effort.

The giant starry palm crushed the ten streaks of blood light effortlessly, obliterating them instantly.

Then it continued on relentlessly, viciously slamming Chishan’s massive body into the ground!

"Boom——!"

The earth shook violently, dust clouded the sky, forming a clear, gigantic palm-shaped crater.

Around the crater, scarlet blood had seeped into the ground, staining it an ominous red.

However, from the bottom of the pit came not wailing but an eerie low laughter.

"Hehehe... Captain Gao, it’s not working." Chishan’s voice, twisted and mocking, echoed from the bottom of the pit, "Seems like you’ve really grown old, this strength... feels like you’re just tickling me?"

From afar, Gao listened to this blatant ridicule, his face remaining as calm as a still pond.

He was long past the age where words could anger him, his will strong as a rock.

However, deep in Gao’s heart, he was indeed slightly surprised by Chishan’s tenacious vitality.

No wonder it originates from the crimson power, he pondered in silence.

Each encounter with these fallen ones, Gao had to face a harsh reality.

These crimson fallens seemed to abandon the arduous cultivation, insight, and resource accumulation needed by human cultivators.

Merely by submitting to the crimson will, they could easily gain immense power beyond the reach of regular people.

The Chishan before him was proof — he used to be a cultivator of the Bright Moon Realm grand achievement; after his fall, he quickly gained the capital to contend directly with powerful human beings of the Fiery Sun Realm.

The dust slowly settled, revealing Chishan’s miserable condition at the bottom of the pit.

Such injuries, if inflicted upon any normal human or ordinary creature, would have been enough to cause instant death.

His head was half-crushed, shattered skull and gray-white brain matter exposed directly to the air.

His limbs were completely twisted and disintegrated, ground into a mass of fuzzy flesh mixed with the sand.

Truly, his entire body had not a single unbroken bone — only his mouth remained stubbornly rigid!

Yet, even though Chishan suffered such devastating blows, countless thin, wriggling crimson buds were crazily sprouting from the shattered flesh, visible to the naked eye.

They intertwined and wrapped urgently, like living red threads, attempting to stitch together the broken body.

Clearly, as long as Chishan was given enough time, he could rely on the terrifying vitality endowed by the crimson, rise from the mud again, and recover as before.

"Humph, beast, you deserve to die!"

Gao’s eyes were utterly indifferent, devoid of any sense of nostalgia.

The power of the galaxy rapidly gathered in his aged palm, brilliant starlight surged forth.

Gao knew very well that confronting crimson fallen ones, especially someone like Chishan who already possessed strength equivalent to the Fiery Sun Realm, required a swift and decisive approach, leaving no room for respite.

Their bodies could at any moment become perfect vessels for the S-level crimson monsters lurking in the void to descend.

Once a crimson monster of that level’s will descended using this body, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Just as Gao was about to purify Chishan thoroughly, Lu Xuan’s voice rang out.

"Captain, leave this to me."

"You guys lead the team back to report to the court. Tell them for me that I have some personal matters to attend to, and I’ll return later."

At his words, Gao’s actions paused slightly, the majestic starlight gathered in his palm halted, then rapidly withdrew into his body like a tide.

Gao looked deeply at Lu Xuan, did not ask much, but responded solemnly.

"Alright, I’ll leave this to you."

Among the entire Ninth Guard Group, Gao trusted this seemingly aloof yet never disappointing Empire genius the most.

Since Lu Xuan spoke personally, he trusted that there would be no further worries about this matter.

Gao’s gaze then turned to the sturdy figure not far away, his tone becoming stern.

"Chenhu! What are you still doing here? Return to the team and continue the patrol at once! We’re to report back to the court tomorrow!"

From afar, Chenhu, who had just arrived, stopped his steps before he could curse at Chishan in the pit, and heard the captain’s reprimand.

He shrank his neck, quickly responding: "Yes! Captain Gao, I’m leaving now!"

But before turning, Chenhu suddenly bent down, picked up a fist-sized hard stone from the ground, exerted his arm, and with full hatred, fiercely launched it towards the pit!

"Whiz—Splatter!"

The stone struck Chishan’s already half-crushed head accurately, instantly piercing a new bloody hole.

"Beast! This is the interest collected for Leibry and Sister Shenxin!"

With a shout, Chenhu no longer lingered, turned around, and exploded in speed, rushing towards the direction of the main force, seemingly afraid that a step slower would earn him a reprimand from the captain.

Chishan’s eyes instantly turned blood-red, the pain from the stone-pierced skull far less intense than the humiliation suffered at this moment.

He stared dead at the direction Chenhu fled, a beast-like low growl emerging from his throat: "Damn bastard... I’ll tear you apart for sure!!!"

However, as soon as these harsh words fell, Chishan’s enraged expression froze instantly, then was replaced by absolute fear, his twisted features full of panic.

"No... no! Black Tiger Lord! Don’t!" He suddenly screamed desperately into the empty void, as if something invisible was watching him from there, "I’m fine! Please... please don’t come over!!"
