Chapter 402: Life goes on, the fight never ends.

In the midst of the dense fog, after a strike, the base of his palm split open, bleeding profusely, and blood soaked the sword hilt.

Even as a peak late-stage True Qi realm martial artist, challenging two great masters by himself left him overtaxed, nearly blasting Ye Qiu away.

However, the blackened Ye Qiu didn’t even grimace. The pain seemed trivial, and his expression suddenly unchanged, he slashed out once more.

The Sword Qi, amidst the fog, simultaneously targeted Bai Xiong and Ju Lu.

"Still coming? You’re courting death." Bai Xiong was the first to charge forward, spreading his fingers wide open. Mighty beast-man strength coursed through his fingers. With a metallic clang, he tore through the Sword Qi with one hand, his fingers unscathed, radiating golden light.

Shredding Sword Qi with bare hands, this scene caused the blackened Ye Qiu’s pupils to shift slightly. Even though he was under the control of the dark aura, his ability to perceive danger hadn’t vanished but had instead surged along with the increase in strength post-transformation.

"I’ll extinguish him!" Bai Xiong didn’t want Ju Lu to make a move. They were only dealing with someone in the True Qi realm; if it took two of them to act, it would only show that they, as SSS-class beast-men, were too weak.

Bai Xiong was confident that he alone was enough to defeat Ye Qiu.

Seeing Bai Xiong demonstrate his true power, Ju Lu stepped aside. As long as Bai Xiong gave it his all, he believed Ye Qiu was destined to lose.

Even if Ye Qiu managed to kill Adam with that dark aura, what strength did Adam have? A half-baked SSS-class; how could he compare to the two of them?

With a roar, Bai Xiong underwent a massive transformation. His figure grew fivefold in the blink of an eye, his body now covered with white fur, standing over three meters tall, the very image of a gigantic bear.

This is what a true beast-man looked like.

At that moment, Ye Qiu refrained from attacking, sensing the aura emitting from Bai Xiong swelling immensely, especially that enormous body brimming with energy. Though it wasn’t displayed, it shook Ye Qiu’s soul.

Even the blackened Ye Qiu displayed a flicker of wariness.

Normally, beast-men retained some human characteristics after transformation, like keeping a human head, merely altering their body to resemble that of a wild animal. However, Bai Xiong was drastically different, bearing no human features at all, but wholly those of a bear—a feral beast through and through.

The most powerful state of an SSS-class beast-man!

Ju Lu sneered. Provoked into unleashing his true power, Bai Xiong assured Ye Qiu’s certain demise. Ju Lu deeply understood that Bai Xiong in this form was no longer the graceful gentleman but a violent bear, a raging, astonishing wild beast.

"Roar!"

A bear’s roar echoed through the mountains and forest, white fur, pitch-black eyes, and huge paws capable of tearing apart anything. A tidal surge of power coursed through his entire body.

The Bai Xiong standing before him was like a mountain, a volcano ready to erupt at any moment; a single fury could spew lava for thousands of kilometers, devouring everything, leaving no trace of life or death.

Kill!

Bai Xiong’s eyes pierced through the fog and spotted Ye Qiu’s location. In his most powerful state, such smokescreens were child’s play. The ground trembled with his every move!

Thud... thud... thud...

Bai Xiong began to run, causing Ye Qiu’s breathing to tighten. His eyes burned with a dark flame, strictly speaking, his pupils now gone, replaced by the black Qi.

Facing Bai Xiong’s terrifying power, the crimson in Ye Qiu’s eyes faded, leaving only the quietly flickering dark flames. They flashed as if bursting from his eyes, his figure followed suit, flashing forward with the Kusanagi Sword headed straight for Bai Xiong.

Ju Lu’s eyes bulged. Seeing Ye Qiu confront Bai Xiong head-on, he couldn’t help but scoff: "Without witnessing a true king, you’ll never understand how insignificant you are. It’s admirable to try striking stone with eggs, but to me, it’s foolishness. Ye Qiu, prepare to be torn to shreds."

"I’m going to crush your head." Bai Xiong’s huge palm swooped in, its movement creating a miniature cyclone from the force, showing just how terrifying his power was.

With one palm, a gust was born!

The wind blew through the heavy fog, and in an instant, sand and stones flew, trees snapped, and everywhere Bai Xiong passed, he left deep footprints.

Sword Qi burst forth suddenly, but unlike before, this Sword Qi was black, clearly indicating that after turning dark, Ye Qiu began to harness the power of the black qi.

In a blink, the entire battlefield screamed with ghostly wails and divine roars, as if it had plunged into the depths of a Shura hell in a moment.

Bai Xiong merely paused for a split second before regaining his composure. His resilience was strong enough to shield his mind. From evolving step by step from a low-level beast person to the strongest beast person, his resilience was exceptionally tenacious, surpassing many in the martial arts realm, so he was completely unaffected.

His attacks did not stop; he continued to tear through the Sword Qi, displaying unmatched bravery.

The Sword Qi was like a ribbon, seeming to whirl through the air and surround Bai Xiong, constantly eroding his strength.

"Roar!" Bai Xiong leaped up with both hands, shaking the earth. He grabbed the Sword Qi, twisted with tremendous force, and the black Sword Qi, unable to withstand it, shattered once again.

Ye Qiu swung his sword again, sending out ten bursts of Sword Qi. Bai Xiong snorted angrily. His enormous body flipped through the air, and in less than a breath’s time, he pressed in close to Ye Qiu.

His movements were nimble and swift, and his palm strikes devastating. Against the Sword Qi Ye Qiu slashed out, he gathered them up in the air, capturing all ten bursts in his hands, before pulling and instantly crushing them.

Ye Qiu’s eyes, now with less of the black flames, watched as Bai Xiong, observing Ye Qiu’s strange state, wordlessly brought down a bear paw strike.

Ye Qiu’s reaction was half a beat too slow, not even having lifted his sword before being slapped away, nearly dispersing all the black qi enveloping him.

Bang!

Ye Qiu smashed into the ground, creating a deep crater, with smoke billowing around him as he lay there motionless, his life or death unknown.

"Is this the power of the Legendary Realm?" Ye Qiu thought bitterly.

Just from one palm strike, it felt like his entire body was about to fall apart, with not a single place free of pain.

Even after turning dark, could he not escape the death fate before him?

After being hit by Bai Xiong’s palm, Ye Qiu’s rationality returned. Although the black qi hadn’t completely dissipated, he could consciously control his body again.

Ye Qiu could feel that after turning dark, he possessed almost half the strength of the Legendary Realm, and with the peculiar energy of the black qi, his power might even be more formidable.

Yet, even so, facing a real beast person of the Legendary Realm strength, he still couldn’t prevail.

Indeed, the Kondjier family was twisted enough to forcefully create a Legendary Realm beast person.

Ye Qiu struggled to rise from the ground, while Bai Xiong watched him quietly from a short distance away.

Covered in mud, Ye Qiu didn’t bother to clean himself. His eyes, half black and half white, were a state he found somewhat pleasing, but his current opponent was simply too powerful. And such opponents were not just one, but two in full force.

"It seems I’m going to die here," a trace of desolation flashed through Ye Qiu’s eyes. Despite his reluctance, he had no choice; if he couldn’t avoid it, then he would fight!

A surge of fighting will rose fiercely from Ye Qiu’s heart. For a martial artist, it was better to die in battle than to die a coward’s death!
