Thunder Prison, the Approaching Demon God

!

"Pfft—"

With a dull sound, before the Winged Ghost Race youth could even see Lu Ming's movement clearly, his entire body exploded midair into a cloud of blood mist. Only the azure-green Psychic Weapon, the Wind Howl Wheel, continued whistling forward from inertia before embedding itself in the trunk of a massive tree.

"A controller at the fifth level of the domain—his strength was decent enough. Too bad you insisted on coming here to die." Against an opponent like this, Lu Ming did not even need to get serious. A casual strike was enough to finish him.

"I've got points..." Lu Ming lowered his head to look at the screen on his wrist. The text on it had already changed.

Participant: Lu Ming (Jinlan Universe Kingdom)

Points: 1

Rank: 3,675,494

"Though this is a forest environment, visibility is fairly open. Finding enemies won't be difficult. It won't be hard to kill my way through this world."

Lu Ming stood in his combat boots, a wild gleam flickering in his eyes. Here, he could freely reveal his "true nature."

"The killing game officially begins!"

Within the primeval forest, ancient trees towered everywhere.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Explosions rang out almost everywhere.

On an ordinary planet, if two Stellar level ninth-rank powerhouses fought, the aftermath could probably level an entire city with ease.

However, the Virtual Universe Company had specifically set all environmental materials in this world to B9 grade. As a result, this world could fully withstand the month-long slaughter and combat of such an enormous number of Stellar level ninth-rank participants.

"Crackle—" Blinding lightning suddenly lit up a section of forest, illuminating more than a dozen enemies in every direction.

Roar! Within the lightning's range, waves of terrifying beast roars that shook the heart also echoed through the sky!

Bang! Pfft! Sizzle! ...Some had their heads blown apart outright, others had their chests smashed to pieces, and still others were electrocuted into charred lumps!

In short, within the area covered by lightning, those dozen or so people could not even find their target before they were killed one after another, as though their names had been called. Lu Ming took less than three seconds to slaughter everyone present!

"Weak. Far too weak! Only weak lambs like to gather in groups!" After making that assessment, Lu Ming rose into the sky once more and continued charging straight ahead openly and arrogantly!

"Oh? It sounds pretty lively over there." Sensing the tremendous commotion in the northwest ahead, Lu Ming was delighted rather than alarmed and accelerated toward it.

Whoosh!

Within this "melee zone," several experts who had been confronting one another were all stunned. They looked up to see a short-haired black-haired youth clad in black combat attire, a deep-blue spear strapped to his back, hovering in the air and looking down at them.

"What's this guy trying to do?" Quite a few people froze briefly as more and more noticed him.

"This is the first time I've met someone even more arrogant than me!" A purple-haired tigerkin youth with an unruly appearance let out a disdainful sneer.

After all, the preliminaries had only just begun. The density of participants was extremely high, and it was easy to encounter chaotic battles involving hundreds or even thousands of people.

Yet someone was actually flying alone in the sky. Wasn't that just making himself into a live target?

"Attack together! Kill him first!"

Everyone was Stellar level ninth-rank. No matter how formidable an expert was, they feared being besieged. For him to act so arrogantly, he really was a suicidal idiot!

The fastest to act were naturally those Mental Masters capable of controlling Psychic Weapons for long-range attacks.

Boom!

Almost instantly, over a hundred Psychic Weapons gleaming in all colors shot toward the black-haired youth in the sky at once, carrying astonishing momentum.

"Slow. Far too slow!" In Lu Ming's perception, he could easily see the flight paths of those hundred-plus Psychic Weapons and find gaps between them. But with power like this, he did not need to dodge at all.

"Get lost!" The black-haired youth in the sky merely uttered those words softly, yet they seemed to contain endless magic. The countless Psychic Weapons surging toward him like a tide instantly stalled, with some even flying backward uncontrollably in the direction they had come from!

"No, how is that possible?!"

"My Psychic Weapon!"

The expressions of the controllers changed drastically. They immediately exerted their spiritual power with all their might, trying to regain control of their Psychic Weapons. Yet this was no easy process, and many of their faces turned pale at once.

"Go!"

Before the crowd could react further, the black-haired youth in the sky raised his right hand slightly and pressed it down toward the ground.

Whoosh!

Rumble! The surrounding heavens and earth shook as a terrifying, blazing white illusory lightning "castle" suddenly appeared above everyone's heads. A lightning domain immediately spread outward. With only a gentle downward press of Lu Ming's palm, every enemy within his sight instantly became like insects frozen in amber, unable even to move.

"What is this? A domain?"

Everyone, including the tigerkin youth, stared fearfully at the blazing white lightning "castle" above them. That terrifying aura made their hearts tremble.

The lightning "castle" descended violently like a mountain peak. Boom! As if crushing a swarm of ants, many people did not even have time to groan before their bodies were ground into powder.

"Monster! A monster!"

"What kind of domain technique is this? Damn it!"

Though several survivors at the edge of the domain barely avoided the descent of the lightning "castle," once the lightning "castle" at the center truly began exerting its power and released tens of thousands of raging lightning currents in every direction, no one lasted even another second!

"Crackle, crackle—" Lightning ran rampant. In an instant, nothing remained between heaven and earth but ash-black charred dust.

After the lightning castle dissipated, ownerless Psychic Weapons and Force Weapons fell to the ground, producing a string of crisp clatters.

"Against large groups of weaklings, Thunder Prison is still the most convenient move." Thunder Prison, also known as Myriad Thunder Prison, was a large-scale offensive secret technique used in conjunction with a domain.

With Lu Ming's Lightning Domain, which had long since reached the ninth level, combined with his already profound comprehension of the Lightning Origin Law, this move produced immediate results when used against multiple enemies!

"Over 1,600 points in one go—not bad." Lu Ming glanced at the screen on his wrist, chose a direction, and flew straight ahead again.

Compared to most participants weaving through the forest, he was a conspicuous oddity, never concealing his tracks as he traveled through the sky.

Half a day later.

Boom! Boom! ...

The familiar blazing white lightning once again rampaged through the forest sea.

Though everyone knew that anyone daring to fly high above the ground in a place like this could not be an easy target, whenever they encountered Lu Ming, the participants still instinctively focused their fire on him. Their endings, however, were all miserable.

"That guy was clearly not weak, but he sure ran fast." Having harvested another large batch of points, Lu Ming unhurriedly pursued a Luojia Race youth.

This was the first person who had turned around and fled immediately upon seeing him.

"Whoosh—" Amid the distant forest, Samael, who was not particularly large in stature, was frantically controlling the fifth-rank Psychic Weapon, the Flowing Light Cone, fleeing for his life at the fastest speed he had ever achieved!

Being able to wield a fifth-rank Psychic Weapon so skillfully, Samael was naturally no weakling. But compared with that monster from earlier, he had absolutely no confidence in resisting him!

Was that kind of monster really a Stellar level powerhouse? Samael had fought top geniuses who had crossed the threshold of the laws in the Slaughter Space before, yet he had never experienced the nearly terrifying pressure he had felt just now!

I'll die. If I face him, I'll definitely die! Samael knew that against a monster of that level, he would never survive even one move.

It's only the first day. If I die now, I'll definitely be eliminated! Sensing that the demonic god-like figure behind him had been following him all along, his heart began pounding wildly.

"Not good, he's catching up!" Sensing the life aura behind him rapidly closing in, Samael's heart clenched!

"Ha ha, brothers, look what I found! Another poor bastard all alone!" At that moment, Samael discovered six people of what appeared to be the same race charging toward him from ahead. They seemed to have set their sights on him as well.

"You idiots, run for your lives! There's a great demon god behind me, and he's about to catch up!" Samael snapped furiously, shouting at the six bastards blocking his way.
