Chapter 229 - 104: Red Lotus Godzilla? Great Emperor’s Castle

Its massive body didn’t hinder its incredible speed in the slightest!

Liu Mei’s expression changed as she watched the Lava Monster charge toward them.

"Remember to heal me!"

Chen Yu said. Liu Mei looked at him. "Are you confident?"

Her healing ability was her trump card, a last resort for life-or-death situations. She had already used it twice. If she had to use it twice more and the Lava Monster still wasn’t defeated, she couldn’t guarantee she would escape unscathed.

The Lava Monster could use the power of the magma to regenerate. It had just been beaten to a pulp, yet it had already returned to its peak condition. She was starting to have doubts.

"We’ll know once we try."

Chen Yu said. The moment the words left his mouth, he vanished.

Liu Mei was dumbfounded.

’Just *try*...?’

’If this fails, we’re both going to die here!’

She was utterly speechless.

BOOM—!!!

Chen Yu closed in, unleashing a lightning-fast punch. The immense Divine Power sent the Lava Monster flying.

Watching this scene, the Seed of Superpower within Liu Mei stirred restlessly, ready to act at any moment.

’Give it a try... I guess that’s all we can do.’

’If this doesn’t work, I’m getting out of here.’

The Lava Monster’s massive body crashed into the fiery sea of magma, sending up tidal waves of molten rock.

But Chen Yu didn’t give chase. He stood firm in the air and suddenly raised a hand.

HUMMMMM!!!

High in the sky, a spatial rift a kilometer wide tore open.

A purple light shone down. Liu Mei looked up at the sky, her pupils contracting sharply as she saw the kilometer-wide rift.

’Danger!’

An overwhelming sense of danger exploded in her mind.

"Get back. This Superpower... I don’t have good control over it." Chen Yu’s voice reached Liu Mei’s ears.

Liu Mei didn’t even need his warning; she was already sprinting away.

Purple light flashed. From within the rift in the sky, a destructive purple beam descended.

"ROAR!!"

The Lava Monster roared from within the sea of magma, its entire body glowing with a brilliant red light.

Ultimate Destructive Celestial Light!

’No choice. I have to use my ultimate!’

"BOOM!!!"

A heaven-shaking sound echoed. The moment the Destructive Celestial Light descended, the entire super-giant island trembled.

Everything at the epicenter was instantly annihilated.

The dazzling purple shockwave was like a second sun, too bright to look at directly.

"Pfft..."

Even from dozens of miles away, Liu Mei couldn’t withstand the blast. The protective barrier of her Qi was shattered, and she coughed up a mouthful of blood.

Her body, like a leaf in the wind, was sent drifting into the distance.

A mushroom cloud soared into the sky.

It rushed up to a height of ten thousand meters!

The destructive shockwave continued to spread, destroying all lifeforms in its path.

After what felt like a long moment, the purple shockwave gradually dissipated.

Hundreds of kilometers away, Liu Mei coughed up more blood, her face pale as she stared toward the epicenter of the destruction.

’Just how many of these monstrous Superpowers does he have?!’

Liu Mei’s heart pounded in her chest.

She wasn’t even at the center, yet even a Level 8 Martial Artist like her couldn’t withstand this destructive blow.

’If I had been at the epicenter... I’d probably be dead.’

The last time in the South Sea, she had witnessed Chen Yu’s abilities. She thought this was the same one, but it wasn’t.

This was another one of Chen Yu’s abilities, no less destructive than the power he used to destroy the Flame Demon Spirit.

In fact, it felt even more terrifying.

——

The light faded, and dust and smoke covered everything.

At the island’s center, a massive crater over a hundred kilometers wide had appeared.

It had almost bored straight through the island!

Almost half of this side of the island was destroyed.

The other half of the island, however, was protected by a rule-based barrier and remained completely unscathed.

The contrast was stark!

"Cough, cough..."

Chen Yu’s figure appeared amidst the dust, his face deathly pale.

His aura had diminished significantly.

Standing in the air, he looked down at the Abyss blasted open below, his gaze piercing into its depths.

A faint aura emanated from it.

’It’s still alive?!’

Chen Yu was shocked to feel a faint trace of the Lava Monster’s aura.

A wisp of red light appeared, and the Lava Monster’s form came into Chen Yu’s view.

However, its body had completely vanished. Only a head remained.

"..."

’What kind of insane Life Force is this.’

Chen Yu was stunned as he watched the Lava Monster’s head shoot up.

’The power of the Ultimate Celestial Light... If I got hit by that, I’d be dead for sure.’

"VMMMM—!"

With a single thought, his Biological Force Field erupted, instantly trapping the Lava Monster’s head.

"CRACK!!"

The Force Field compressed, and the Lava Monster’s head began to crack before shattering completely.

Chen Yu called out his interface and glanced at his Source of Life: 450,000,000.

"Phew..."

Looking at the massive increase in his Source of Life, Chen Yu let out a long sigh of relief.

’Finally, it’s over.’

One Lava Monster added 180,000,000. Worth it!

"WHOOSH—!"

With the sound of tearing air, Liu Mei arrived before him.

She looked at Chen Yu, the shock in her eyes impossible to conceal.

’Chen Yu has more than one ultimate move like that.’

’What kind of monster is he?!’

"Is it dead?"

Liu Mei could no longer sense the Lava Monster’s aura, so she looked to Chen Yu.

"Yeah. There was a small hiccup, but it’s dealt with now," Chen Yu nodded.

’A small hiccup?’

Liu Mei froze for a second, but she quickly came to her senses, a wave of relief washing over her.

’Whatever. As long as it’s dead, that’s what counts.’

To survive an attack of this Destruction Level, it would have to possess an immortal body like the Flame Demon Spirit’s.

"HUMM!!"

Liu Mei raised a hand, and a green light entered Chen Yu’s body.

As the green light entered him, Chen Yu’s depleted Qi instantly recovered to its peak.

The color returned to his pale face.

"Whew..."

Letting out a slow breath, Chen Yu looked at Liu Mei. "Good working with you."

Liu Mei nodded.

The two of them turned their gazes to the gap in the distance.

That was the only opening not covered by the rule-based barrier.

What lay on the other half of the island, however, was a mystery.
