Chapter 199 - 99: Lord of the Undead, the Death God’s Chant

"ROAR!!!"

The roar exploded, shaking the air as a tentacle whipped toward Chen Yu.

"BANG!"

Chen Yu reacted quickly, throwing a punch that knocked the tentacle back.

A giant, purple octopus appeared before his eyes.

Its aura was terrifying.

Looking at his surroundings again, Chen Yu’s gaze fell upon the giant purple octopus before him.

A Beast King!

Everything that had just happened was merely a Spiritual Illusion Realm created for him by this octopus Beast King.

"HISS—"

At that moment, the octopus Beast King shrieked, and a purple beam of light shot toward Chen Yu.

"BOOM—!"

A massive explosion erupted. The powerful shockwave swept through the area, instantly blasting several Deep Sea Beasts to death.

Waves surged to the heavens.

But in the next second, Chen Yu’s figure reappeared behind the octopus Beast King.

"WHOOSH—!"

An explosion of frosty air instantly froze the octopus Beast King solid.

"CRACK—!"

He struck with a heavy fist, shattering the ice. The octopus Beast King’s body was sent flying a thousand meters away.

The bodies of other beasts were sent flying.

"VMM—!!"

The octopus Beast King’s tentacles danced, and a purple light bloomed.

"ROAR!!!"

The surrounding Deep Sea Beasts roared, charging toward Chen Yu one after another.

Faced with the siege of countless Deep Sea Beasts, Chen Yu remained expressionless. His figure turned into a flash of electricity and vanished in an instant.

He reappeared behind the octopus Beast King once more.

Pale white flames ignited as his body swelled rapidly as if being inflated, reaching a colossal height of a thousand meters.

Senluo Form, activated!

His eight arms seized the octopus Beast King’s tentacles.

"SQUELCH—!"

A terrifying power erupted, and several of the octopus Beast King’s tentacles were forcefully ripped off.

"ROAR—!"

The octopus Beast King’s roar echoed as it tried to escape, but it was too late.

A colossal fist crashed into the octopus Beast King’s body like a mountain.

Its head shattered, and purple fluid gushed out.

A level-eight Beast King, its brain pierced and utterly annihilated by the force of a single punch.

Its Spiritual Power was formidable, but the octopus Beast King’s physical body was fragile.

Where there are strengths, there are also weaknesses.

Tearing the octopus Beast King’s body apart, the thousand-meter-tall Chen Yu soared into the air.

He summoned a Frost Storm several thousand meters high that blotted out the sun, sweeping across the battlefield with overwhelming force.

Countless beasts were frozen to death.

An extreme chill enveloped the area, freezing the sea for several miles around.

With the Beast King’s fall, the beast tide’s assault immediately and drastically weakened.

Chen Yu didn’t rest, continuing his rampage in his Senluo Form.

The number of beasts in the tide dropped rapidly, and at the same time, his Source of Life was skyrocketing.

...

RUMBLE!!!

Explosions rang out continuously.

A vast number of beasts were slain.

Waves of destruction spread across the sea. Without the Beast King’s command, the remaining beasts, though numerous, could no longer muster their previous power.

Some of the beasts fled, escaping into the deep sea.

"We have a chance!"

At the island garrison, Martial Artists covered in blood watched the beasts retreat, their spirits soaring.

They went all out, slaughtering the remaining foes!

Chen Yu unleashed his full power, slaughtering beasts en masse in his thousand-meter form.

He used no special techniques; his raw strength and speed alone were enough to crush everything.

Beast after beast was annihilated. Chen Yu couldn’t block all the fleeing ones, but he did his best to take down as many as he could.

He mainly focused on the Level 6 and Level 7 beasts.

As for the other Deep Sea Beasts, he let them run.

After all, he couldn’t possibly wipe out every single beast on his own.

The Destructive Celestial Light was immensely powerful and had off-the-charts destructive capability, but if he were to use that Skill...

...the people at the island garrison would cease to exist as well.

Besides, he needed to stay on guard against certain beasts.

If some top-tier beast were to appear, he would at least have some power left to resist.

—

Time passed, second by second.

Several hours later, countless beast corpses floated in the waters surrounding Island Garrison 100.

The beast tide was over.

Chen Yu and Dongfang Yao appeared on the island.

During those few hours of frenzied killing, some of the Deep Sea Beasts had retreated and fled, while others had been slain.

The two of them felt utterly exhausted.

On the island, the survivors erupted in cheers.

"Can you still hold on?" Chen Yu asked, looking at Dongfang Yao’s pale face.

Dongfang Yao nodded lightly. "It’s not a big deal. I just used up a lot of energy. I’ll be fine after I recover."

As she spoke, she took out a Spirit Pearl and swallowed it.

Seeing this, Chen Yu didn’t say anything more.

He checked his own Source of Life.

It had already reached over 470,000,000.

He had gained over 160,000,000 Source of Life from this one beast tide.

’Though I’m exhausted, the reward was worth it.’

"Thank you for your help, my lord."

Just as he was about to regulate his breathing, a man in a tattered, blood-soaked military uniform came before them. He bowed deeply, his expression filled with reverence.

Dongfang Yao was cultivating with her eyes closed and didn’t respond at all. Chen Yu looked at the man in the tattered uniform and said coolly, "It was my duty. You’ve all worked hard as well."

The man smiled, looked at Chen Yu, and said, "We were just doing our best to defend. Without the two of you, my lords, I’m afraid Island 100 would have fallen."

"Focus on recovering for now. We need to be prepared in case the Deep Sea Beasts attack again," Chen Yu said.

The man in the tattered uniform nodded and left, not wanting to disturb them any further.

After several hours of bitter fighting, they were all exhausted.

The beast tide had retreated, but the casualties were severe.

There were several thousand people before, but now, only one or two hundred remained.

Over ninety percent had died.

The war against the beast tide was cruel, but at least it wasn’t a total wipeout.

"How are Chen Yu and the others?"

Zhuang Qi asked, looking at An Ran.
