Flying Capture Three Ant Emperors, as Tough as Nails at Full Strength

A Level 83 Soul Douluo against a Ninety Thousand Years Thousand Jun Ant Emperor.

Lin Qing had brought out every last bit of his Dragon Transformation ability this time, holding nothing back.

That glittering golden Dragon Arm was unquestionably his main weapon, swinging with fierce momentum.

His Dragon Tail was no idle decoration either, adept at blocking and restraining, as nimble as an extra arm.

His Movement Technique was absurdly fast as he circled the Thousand Jun Ant Emperor's mountain-like body, striking only at the most awkward angles.

Even without Soul Rings.

The combination of the Dragon Transformation Secret Art and Ultimate Power turned Lin Qing into a hard nail driven into wood—one plated in gold—pinning the Ninety Thousand Years Soul Beast firmly in place.

The Thousand Jun Ant Emperor stomped in frantic fury, yet it could not shake him off no matter what.

Much less go help its brothers.

Elsewhere.

The situation with Da Ming and Er Ming was completely different.

That was not a battle at all, but pure one-sided domination!

Er Ming had never followed any rules when fighting. It relied entirely on brute savagery.

With a roar, it pounced.

Using its body, even larger and more terrifying than the Thousand Jun Ant Emperor's, it came crashing down like Mount Tai.

Its massive fists swung like meteors falling from the heavens, carrying the weight and gravity of the earth as they smashed down.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Every punch landed solidly, making the Thousand Jun Ant Emperor's shell creak and crack as fractures spread like spiderwebs.

The Thousand Jun Ant Emperor's strength ranked among the best of Soul Beasts.

But against the Titan Giant Ape, a Forest Overlord with one hundred thousand years of cultivation and peerless bloodline, it was still far inferior.

Crack!

A sharp, teeth-grating snap suddenly rang out!

Er Ming's two furry giant hands each seized one of the Thousand Jun Ant Emperor's forelegs in a firm grip.

Those forelegs were harder than refined steel, gleaming with a dark, dull luster.

Roar—!

Er Ming threw back its head and roared, the muscles in its neck bulging in thick knots.

The veins on its arms writhed like little snakes as its utterly berserk brute force erupted in an instant!

Riiip!

With a scalp-numbing tearing sound, those two incomparably hard forelegs were ripped straight from their joints!

Dark gold bodily fluid, reeking intensely of blood, sprayed out with a pfft, splattering across the ground.

Screee!!!

The Thousand Jun Ant Emperor let out an agonized shriek, its entire body twisting and struggling wildly as it tried to throw off the Giant Beast on top of it.

But Er Ming's knee pressed down like a small mountain, utterly unmoving.

And that was not all!

Er Ming tossed aside the still-twitching remains of the forelegs and swung its fists, as big as woks... no, as big as pools, straight at the Thousand Jun Ant Emperor's vicious head and mandibles!

Bang! Bang! Bang!

The dull impacts came one after another like pounding war drums, making even the ground tremble faintly.

After several punches.

The Thousand Jun Ant Emperor's metal-crushing mandibles were bent and shattered.

One Compound Eye was smashed apart as well, fluid spilling everywhere.

Its forelegs were gone.

Its mandibles were ruined too.

The Thousand Jun Ant Emperor that had seemed so imposing moments ago was completely finished.

It lay sprawled on the ground, barely breathing, with only its severed limbs twitching unconsciously from time to time.

The Sky Azure Bull Python's side had ended just as swiftly and decisively, though its terror carried a different flavor.

It had not wrestled or competed in strength with its opponent at all.

Its enormous Python Body moved as though alive, wrapping around its prey with supple speed, coil after tightening coil becoming the sturdiest of shackles.

At the same time, its majestic bull head lowered, spraying pale azure ripples from its mouth that silently washed over the Thousand Jun Ant Emperor's carapace.

The moment the ripples touched it, the once hard and glossy shell rapidly became dull and brittle, like rusted sheet iron.

The Thousand Jun Ant Emperor struggled with less and less strength.

Then, the Sky Azure Bull Python's coiled body suddenly contracted inward with force!

It was the deadly tightening of a giant python strangling its prey.

Crack!

Squelch!

Tooth-grating snaps and horrifying crushing sounds mixed together.

The tough body that the Ninety Thousand Years Thousand Jun Ant Emperor had been so proud of was forcibly constricted into two pieces by the Sky Azure Bull Python's unimaginable strength!

Dark gold organs and bodily fluid poured from the break.

Arthropods truly did possess frightening vitality.

Even split into two, both halves continued twitching and writhing under nervous reflexes, not dying immediately.

But that was all they could do. They could only wait for death.

After dealing with their respective targets, Da Ming and Er Ming had barely even taken a breath.

Their enormous beastly eyes immediately turned toward the last Thousand Jun Ant Emperor, which Lin Qing had tied up in knots.

The instant it glimpsed the miserable state of its two brothers—one dead and one crippled—the Thousand Jun Ant Emperor was nearly scared out of its wits.

Screech! Screech! Screech!!!

Even the pitch of its cries changed, revealing boundless terror.

It no longer cared about fighting.

It frantically tried to burrow underground, seeking only to escape with its life.

How could Lin Qing let it go?

"Trying to run now? No chance!"

The golden light around Lin Qing's dragon-transformed right arm flared brilliantly. His five fingers curved into the phantom image of sharp Dragon Claws, and he seized his opportunity to drive them viciously into the joint connecting one of its hind legs!

"Stay put!"

He roared inwardly as Ultimate Power erupted from his Dragon Arm.

Crack!

The most fragile shell around the joint shattered at once!

Screech—!

The Thousand Jun Ant Emperor shuddered violently in pain, and its burrowing motion immediately froze.

That instant of vulnerability was enough.

The mountain-like Black Shadow of the Titan Giant Ape had already blotted out the sky above it.

A giant fist covered in black coarse fur became a true falling meteor, crashing squarely into the center of its back carapace with a devastating force that seemed capable of crushing everything!

BOOM!!!

That punch was like hammering a nail into a wooden board.

More than half of the Thousand Jun Ant Emperor's body was driven into the ground, cracking the hard earth into a radiating crater.

A massive, horrifying dent appeared in its back carapace.

Countless cracks spread from the bottom of that dent like a shattered web.

Almost at the same time.

The Sky Azure Bull Python's tail, sharper than a steel whip, swept in from the side and struck its head with a bang.

The Thousand Jun Ant Emperor was left utterly disoriented,

Dark gold blood spilled from its mandibles, and even the light in its Compound Eyes had scattered.

Caught between the attacks of the two Kings of the Forest, its feeble resistance was torn apart like paper in an instant.

The last Thousand Jun Ant Emperor collapsed limply in the crater, able to release only weak, broken whimpers. It could barely even move its Tentacles.

From the beginning of the fight to its end, only a short while had truly passed.

The entire process had been clean and decisive, swift as thunder.

"Whew... whew..."

Lin Qing panted heavily, his chest rising and falling violently.

He did not immediately dispel his dragon-transformed state.

An intense wave of weakness surged over him. His Soul Power was nearly depleted, leaving him utterly hollow.

His right arm ached unbearably, its muscles feeling as though countless tiny needles were piercing them.

But this was no time to lie down and rest.

"Human, hurry!"

The Sky Azure Bull Python's deep, resonant voice rang out, carrying a trace of barely detectable urgency.

Lin Qing nodded forcefully, biting the tip of his tongue to use the pain to rouse himself.

He stepped forward and walked up to the three Thousand Jun Ant Emperors one by one.

Two were already on the verge of death, their eyes vacant, while the other was heavily injured and unconscious.

He raised his hand, and the phantom Dragon Claws flashed past their vital points like lightning.

It ended quickly.

As the Life Auras of the three Ninety Thousand Years Soul Beasts completely faded, three immensely profound Soul Rings, black as ink, slowly condensed and rose above their corpses.

A faint circle of bewitching red light glimmered around the edges of the Soul Rings.

That was the sign that they were about to break through the one hundred thousand years threshold.

The three Soul Rings floated silently in the air, slowly rotating as they emitted vast, heart-palpitating energy fluctuations.

Even the surrounding air seemed to become thick and heavy.
