Sudden Outburst: Lu Ming, the Humanoid Starry Sky Giant Beast, Enters the Fray

!

In the Virtual Universe's central plaza.

Besides the many geniuses who had already been eliminated, the great Immortals from the 1008 Universe Kingdoms were also discussing the trial performances of Lu Ming and the other geniuses.

"Shen Tu, that little fellow named Kun Zhou from your Xuanming Universe Kingdom has performed quite well. His points have already risen to second place."

"But the most dazzling performer has to be Lu Ming. He's nearly cleared the fifth Trial Tower completely and is about to enter the sixth directly."

"Judging by the look of it, he seems to still have some strength left in the fifth Trial Tower. I wonder whether he can clear the first level of the sixth."

Amid the countless discussions.

Jiu Yue, the golden-armored Immortal God, sat on a massive chair and watched the screen before him intently. At this point, more than 99% of the geniuses had already been eliminated. Very few were still challenging the Trial Towers. Yet Lu Ming remained firmly in first place!

"Not bad." Jiu Yue looked extremely satisfied.

With Lu Ming around, their Jinlan Universe Kingdom could finally hold its head high in this Genius Battle. This little fellow had not disappointed the high hopes the Kingdom Lord had placed in him.

However...

"The difficulty of the sixth Trial Tower will surge again. I wonder whether he can clear its first level." If he could clear the first level, then first place would truly be secured in advance.

"Let's see whether he has any powerful trump cards left. If not, he'll most likely fall on the first level of the sixth tower."

"I don't think so."

The Immortal Beings discussed among themselves, each voicing their own opinions. With their exceptional eyesight, they could all tell that Lu Ming was probably still hiding some ultimate move. Yet the difficulty of the sixth Trial Tower would also rise sharply!

Even if Lu Ming unleashed his trump card, they did not think he could clear the first level of the sixth Trial Tower.

"Even if he falls here, his performance has already been excellent."

"Mhm!"

"It truly has been very impressive."

The other Immortal Beings nodded as well.

Watching Lu Ming prepare for battle on the screen, they understood that this should be Lu Ming's final outburst.

A group of Immortal Beings watched the scene with calm expressions.

On the first level of the sixth Trial Tower, the battle had reached its most frenzied moment.

"Die, all of you!" A chilling murderous aura flickered in Lu Ming's eyes. The Quenching Star Spear in his hand had long been stained red with beast blood. Endless violent thunder raged around his body, forming an eerie spherical space of lightning. Within that sphere, it was as though he possessed his own Absolute Domain.

Any Blood-Haired Mammoth that entered the spherical space had its speed greatly reduced, while Lu Ming himself remained entirely unaffected and could strike down his enemies at will!

However—

"Rumble..." Blood-Haired Mammoths filled the sky as their iron hooves thundered forward one after another. Their massive bodies charged wildly again and again. Many Blood-Haired Mammoths possessed Domains of their own, and under the spread of countless Domains, the power of Lu Ming's Domain was greatly offset.

As time passed, more and more Blood-Haired Mammoths entered Lu Ming's spherical Domain, leaving him increasingly unable to handle them all.

On the seventh level of the fifth tower, Lu Ming had felt completely at ease, showing no sign of strain. But the moment he entered the first level of the sixth tower, he felt immense pressure.

This sixth Trial Tower was truly far more difficult than the previous ones.

"Bang!" The tail of a Blood-Haired Mammoth suddenly lashed toward the back of Lu Ming's head, while other Blood-Haired Mammoths from every direction simultaneously launched their attacks!

"It's over!" Outside the screen, the hearts of the spectators clenched sharply!

They could see that Lu Ming no longer had time to evade every attack. If he took even one hit, they could already imagine the terrible consequences that would follow!

"Huo Suo True Body!"

At this critical moment, Lu Ming no longer concealed himself and truly unleashed his greatest cultivation achievement of the past five years!

"Heavens, wh-what is that?"

"How is that possible?"

"A Huo Suo Giant Beast! That's a Huo Suo Giant Beast!"

"What kind of secret technique is this? It can actually transform a person into a Starry Sky Giant Beast? That's completely heaven-defying!"

Even many Immortals had their expressions change drastically. They stared at Lu Ming on the screen in shock, their hearts filled with disbelief.

On the screen.

Surrounded and attacked by countless Blood-Haired Mammoths, the genetic energy within Lu Ming's body surged violently, and his entire appearance changed in an instant!

Dense azure fur first erupted madly from the surface of his body. Then, the muscles in both arms swelled wildly, mysterious azure secret patterns forming across them. Upon closer inspection, most of the patterns on Lu Ming's arms were identical to the giant beast statue in the mystic realm canyon, merely much smaller in scale.

"Roar—"

After his outburst, Lu Ming was like a humanoid savage beast. As he roared toward the sky, an overbearing and ferocious aura spread outward.

This was the combat secret technique from the Huo Suo Codex—Huo Suo True Body, which could directly transform him into a Huo Suo Giant Beast!

After using this secret technique, Lu Ming's combat power underwent a terrifying surge!

"Break for me!!!"

In his Huo Suo True Body form, Lu Ming transformed into a humanoid Starry Sky Giant Beast and domineeringly swept his spear out!

"Boom!"

It was as though Lu Ming intended to sweep Heaven and Earth in half with a single strike. As the spear swung out, the vague phantom of an even larger Huo Suo Giant Beast appeared faintly behind it. The spear swept out... and the giant beast phantom moved along with it. Amid a thunderous roar, all the Blood-Haired Mammoths charging in from every direction were shaken into involuntary retreat!

"Whoosh!" Lu Ming was swift as lightning.

After sweeping out his spear, he immediately lunged forward, actually charging straight into the herd of Blood-Haired Mammoths. Then he fiercely thrust his spear forward!

"Extreme Point Instant Thunder!" Lu Ming erupted completely for the first time.

This strike was incomparably fierce!

As the spear shot out, space itself faintly tore open with a hole. Then Lu Ming's spear directly pierced through the bodies of dozens of Blood-Haired Mammoths before him. Terrifying spear force ravaged their bodies... causing them to explode in midair!

One strike slaughtered nearly sixty Blood-Haired Mammoths!

"Again!" Lu Ming, consumed by frenzied slaughter, shook violently and looked toward the other Blood-Haired Mammoths before lunging at them again like lightning.

In his Huo Suo True Body form, Lu Ming's attack, defense, and speed had all improved enormously. The herd of Blood-Haired Mammoths that had just posed a fatal threat to him could no longer harm him in the slightest, leaving them to be slaughtered at his whim!

Before long, Lu Ming had slaughtered all ten thousand Blood-Haired Mammoths!

Above the bloodstained grassland, the azure fur on Lu Ming's body transformed into genetic energy and receded into him. He returned to his original appearance once more.

After taking only a few deep breaths where he stood, he forcefully entered the next level.

Outside, in the central plaza.

Everyone watched the entire battle in disbelief, their souls trembling inwardly.

Was this guy really human? How could he possibly be this strong?

And what exactly was that move? It actually allowed him to transform directly into a Starry Sky Giant Beast?

"If I'm not mistaken, that was the Huo Suo True Body from the Huo Suo Codex, wasn't it?" A tall Lion Clan Immortal powerhouse stared fixedly at Lu Ming on the screen with his golden vertical pupils, without blinking once.

"You're not mistaken. It was indeed that secret technique... A Stellar-level little fellow actually managed to begin cultivating the Huo Suo Codex and even master the most incredible combat secret technique within it, Huo Suo True Body. If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I would truly find it hard to believe this was real!" Another Ape Clan Immortal stared at Lu Ming's figure with amazement in his eyes.

Unlike secret techniques such as the Myriad Lines Flow, which were common at the Immortal God level, the Huo Suo Codex was far rarer and more precious. Usually, only the core members of the Five Great Powers were qualified to come into contact with it.

While rare and precious, its power was equally beyond question. The Huo Suo True Body Lu Ming had just displayed was one of the top combat secret techniques within this precious codex, and it was extremely famous!

"Lu Ming actually knows this move too? He's hidden himself far too deeply!"

"Yeah! With this move alone, he should be able to sweep through the sixth Trial Tower!"

Only those who truly understood the Huo Suo Codex knew what it meant to master the Huo Suo True Body.

Although Lu Ming appeared to have only just entered the first level, that was already astonishing enough.

"To master the Huo Suo True Body at the Stellar level... do you think that in the future, he might..." At the speculation raised by one Immortal powerhouse, everyone fell silent.
