Chapter 2180 - 2173: The Principle Means the Code of the Streets

Zhang Menglong’s words genuinely startled the attackers; they hadn’t expected someone who was merely a First Grade Transcender to boast so arrogantly before them.

"Kid, if we guessed correctly, you probably aren’t affected by the Blood Pond environment, right?" the leader said. "The Blood Pond environment is special. With such abilities, you indeed can ignore ordinary people, but unfortunately, we’re of the same kind, and we have two Level Eight Transcenders, six Seventh Grade Transcenders. You don’t seem to have your position figured out!"

At this point, his companions also laughed aloud. Those two sentences seemed absolutely ridiculous to them; everyone could adapt to the Blood Pond environment, thus power was the only standard here!

"Menglong doesn’t get affected by the Blood Pond environment?" Zelans was shocked; no wonder he found dozens of Supreme Crystals once he ventured deep into the Blood Pond and even discovered such a unique area. It turned out he had such capabilities! They really considered this as Zhang Menglong’s beginner’s luck.

"Have you thought this through?" Zhang Menglong urged.

Zhang Menglong knew very well that his immunity to the Blood Pond’s influence was due to his extraordinarily unique soul. He was also certain his soul was utterly unparalleled and exceptional.

Although these old-timers could track them and monitor their every move, they were definitely different from him, so he still found these people highly intriguing and curious.

"You’re asking us if we’ve thought it through?" The attackers looked at each other, wasn’t this supposed to be their line?

"Seems like we’ve encountered a fool today!"

"I don’t think he’s a fool, he’s a madman!"

"Who’s gonna deal with him? Also, thoroughly search his body, he must have some treasures or maybe his body is really special, it’s worth taking back for dissection and research."

"Let me do it!" A Seventh Grade Transcender volunteered, "Give me ten seconds!"

After saying this, he surged towards Zhang Menglong like a bullet. In the Blood Pond, their prowess could barely exhibit ten percent, but killing a First Grade Transcender was almost a mere hand move.

"Heh heh!" Zhang Menglong’s face displayed a peculiar smile, and to their astonished eyes, he vanished into the Blood Pond!

The Transcender suddenly halted, a living person had just disappeared right before them!

Indeed, they could see the Blood Pond environment with their naked eyes, but their spiritual power and Soul Power were no different from others, so when their naked eyes failed, they were no different than other Explorers in the Blood Pond!

"I thought you all had some great skills; turns out your eyes are just a bit sharper," Zhang Menglong could almost guess his current state from his bewildered look. They couldn’t perceive their own positions!

Zhang Menglong’s body had evolved to adapt to the Blood Pond environment. In biological evolution, the ability to fuse with the environment is extremely common; even Earth’s chameleon, a low-level creature, can easily camouflaged using protective colors.

Zhang Menglong was now in a similar state, completely concealed in the environment. This concealment could be lifted through spiritual power or other means with even a slight sweep, but in the Blood Pond, these methods were ineffective unless Zhang Menglong was within a few meters!

"Behind me!" The Transcender who planned to act against Zhang Menglong suddenly sensed danger from behind.

However, the scope of his perception was too short; at a distance of 10 meters, once he felt the force, there was little time to react!

He could only muster the energy into his back, forming an energy armor as Zhang Menglong’s fist, gathered with fierce power, struck toward his back.

"Level Eight Collapse!"

"Boom!"

The punch landed firmly on his back, although it didn’t shatter his energy armor directly, the force surging in made him cough blood fiercely, almost breaking the energy resisting the high pressure.

Having succeeded in an attack, Zhang Menglong concealed himself again in the surrounding environment.

"Such strong power!" The unlucky fellow wiped blood from his mouth. This kind of power came from a First Grade Transcender!

The force within that single punch was unprecedented even among Sixth Grade Transcenders.

But Zhang Menglong did not allow his opponent any respite; the next second, he appeared from another direction.

"Beast King Fist!"

"Boom!"

This time the Transcender was slightly prepared, but the energy on him was still scattered.

"Pegasus Meteor Fist!"

"Mount Lu Hundred Dragon Destructive Strike!"

"Dragon Fist!"

Zhang Menglong was like an invisible assassin in the dark, launching powerful attacks one after another.

At first, the Transcender barely managed to fend off. But as the attacks increased, cracks in his defense appeared, yet he remained helpless against Zhang Menglong.

"It’s over, one serious punch!"

"Crack!"

The energy defense of the Transcender was finally shattered, blood uncontrollably spurted from his mouth. His scant energy could no longer sustain his body to remain in good condition, the immense pressure of the Blood Pond immediately destroyed his vitality.

His corpse slowly floated up, bumping against the cave wall.

"Does this killing count as an emergency self-defense avoiding judgment from the Holy Soul Alliance?" Zhang Menglong asked, as he retrieved the corpse. This person’s identity needed thorough investigation.

"You few remaining ones, can you resolve my confusion?" Zhang Menglong focused on the others after dispatching one.

"What kind of monster is this kid?"

Losing a comrade was bearable, but today, witnessing a Seventh Grade Transcender being overpowered by a First Grade Transcender was simply beyond belief.

"We indeed underestimated Menglong, today’s been a real eye-opener."

"He said earlier he wants to reason with them; is this his reasoning?"

"Is it possible his reasoning is streetwise?"

The other team members teased for a bit,

but their expressions remained heavy, for at this point, there’s nothing they could do but watch Zhang Menglong charge ahead alone.

"You’re only one person, but we have seven!" The Transcender said, "But your companions can’t assist you."

They could tell Zhang Menglong had defeated a Seventh Grade Transcender, but it wasn’t with ease, and they still had two Level Eight Transcenders.

"Not necessarily," Zhang Menglong’s eyes flashed with an unusual light, and several strands extended from him, linking directly to his companions’ brains.

"Gene Lock On! Mind synchronization initiated!"
