Mental Pollution

One, two, three... a total of eight...

Luo Jun counted them; there were eight invisible figures moving around on the arena... Were they all created by Genesis Art? Or were their true forms also hidden among them?

Just verify them one by one!

He lifted his leg and pushed off backward. The indestructible barrier provided a stable point of leverage, allowing Luo Jun to transform into a cannonball and rush straight towards the nearest invisible monster!

Bang!

With a punch, a monster appeared. Although Ophelia's image could still be vaguely discerned, its limbs were twisted, and its body was covered with tentacles, proliferating teeth, and eyes. Just one look at it was enough to make one's scalp tingle!

However, even such a terrifying monster could not withstand Luo Jun's iron fist. Under the enormous impact, its twisted limbs were torn to pieces, revealing a pulsating ball of flesh... Judging from its appearance, it was full of proliferating blood vessels and tumors, about the size of a walnut. It was more like a tumor than a heart.

"The core of Chaos Creature..." Luo Jun grabbed it and crushed it, and the entire monster's body dissipated.

After taking care of the first one, he turned and charged toward the second.

This one seemed unwilling to sit idly by and wait for its death, so it took the initiative to reveal itself. Several twisted limbs with sharp claws sprouted from its body, and the nun's clothes on its stomach tore open with a ripping sound, revealing a gaping maw that lunged at Luo Jun.

Bang!

With a single kick, the monster's body was pierced through, its core ejected, and it flew onto the opposite barrier, smashing to pieces. The monster's body then dissipated.

At this moment, the remaining six also pounced on him, surrounding Luo Jun!

This is where the benefits of Qi become apparent. Old Yuan, having mastered Qi, can use the technique of bursting energy to turn a master like Rolf into mincemeat with a single punch. Against weaker monsters, he can also instantly kill them all with a burst of Qi.

But Luo Jun was different. Without any internal energy, he could only take down these monsters one by one!

That didn't matter. With his terrifying attributes, Luo Jun's movements were as fast as lightning. Facing the six monsters that surrounded him, he turned 360 degrees and launched six attacks in quick succession. After he stood still, he had six cores in his hands. He then used his strength to crush all six cores, and the six monsters around him also disappeared.

It's all fake... Where's the real one? It's hidden very well...

Just as Luo Jun was reflecting, a Mental Shock suddenly struck his head! Then, a flood of information flashed through his mind, and the surrounding scenery began to distort, displaying eerie colors...

This is... Mental Shock!

Luo Jun could sense that the intensity of this Mental Shock was extremely high. Without a sufficiently strong mind, the sheer amount of information being poured into him would either cause him to become mentally impaired or die from brain overload on the spot... Zhuge Chi had used a similar skill against Rolf before!

However, Rolf was protected by powerful internal energy, and although Zhuge Chi was at the Peak, he still needed to get close to use his Mental Shock. Luo Jun was only at the Body Refinement Realm, and Ophelia didn't even need to show herself; a long-range attack could directly target his brain!

Unfortunately, although he lacked internal energy, Luo Jun possessed mental attributes far exceeding those of ordinary people!

The terrifying information was processed almost instantly by his abnormal computing power, and the distorted scenery in front of him returned to normal. As soon as Luo Jun's senses recovered, he immediately sensed a Killing Intent coming from behind him!

Almost instinctively, he lunged forward to dodge, and in the next instant, a thick, long, and sharp pincer pierced the spot where he had just stood, embedding itself more than a foot deep into the solid floor tile!

Luo Jun shook his still dizzy head, turned around, and saw a huge monster standing in the center of the arena!

She was still wearing Ophelia's Mother Superior, but beneath the robes were not legs, but a thick, centipede-like spine, connected to which her lower body had transformed into a spider-like structure, supported by eight segmented long legs. From the wide sleeves extended two sharp pincers divided into four or five segments—the very pincers that Luo Jun had just used to attack... As for her face, it was still as delicate as ever, but placed on such a twisted body, it appeared even more eerie. Her long hair moved without wind, each strand glowing red, exuding a dangerous aura.

Although they hadn't made direct contact yet, Luo Jun could sense that the enormous monster before him was Ophelia in her true form...

This design... could it be the power of the Shapeshifting Faction?

This woman has so far used the abilities of three schools: Illusion Faction, Creation Faction, and Shapeshifting Faction. Although it is not uncommon for experts to be proficient in multiple schools, due to their limited talents, they all mainly focus on one school, with other abilities serving as auxiliary functions.

But this Ophelia, the three elemental abilities she has shown so far are all top-notch!

How did she do that? Is she some kind of one-in-a-million cultivation genius?

Seeing that Luo Jun dodged the attack, Ophelia seemed a little surprised, but having been brainwashed, she no longer knew fear and charged forward, brandishing her huge pincers!

If it's a physical attack, you have nothing to fear!

Luo Jun went in head-on and punched him!

With a deafening boom, Ophelia's claws were shattered into pieces, rendered useless on the spot! Luo Jun wasn't finished yet; he leaped up and delivered a powerful kick to her head, determined to kill her instantly!

However, Ophelia shrank her neck, her head retracting back into her body, causing Luo Jun's kick to miss! The next instant, her delicate face suddenly emerged from the lower half of her enormous spider abdomen!

Can it even shift your vital organs? Whatever, I'll tear you apart completely, let's see where you can run then!

Luo Jun unleashed his fists and kicks. With his Root Bone enhanced by tens of thousands of times, his physical strength now far surpassed that of ordinary steel. He didn't need any weapons at all; each punch and kick possessed immense power. After a series of attacks, he quickly dismembered Ophelia into eight pieces, leaving only her enormous spider abdomen writhing on the ground.

Looking at the woman's face emerging from the spider's abdomen, Luo Jun raised his foot, intending to give her the final end.

But at that moment, Ophelia's face, which had remained expressionless until now, suddenly twisted, her mouth opened wide, and she let out a sharp roar!

"Aaaaaah..."

The moment the roar was uttered, the limbs that Luo Jun had torn apart suddenly dissipated and turned into clusters of energy that concentrated and entered Luo Jun's ears along with the sound waves, causing his brain to tremble violently, as if being stirred by an iron pestle!

Another Mental Shock?! But this time, it's a hundred times stronger than the last one!

So much so that Ophelia, who launched the attack, even burned away her own physical energy, leaving only a distorted face, screaming and roaring!

Even such a powerful attack couldn't break Luo Jun's will. He covered his head with his hands, desperately resisting the invading Mental Pollution, but soon he discovered something different...

The intruding pollution somehow forged a link with his mind, and at the other end of that link was a girl's memory...
