Eight Extremes Burst One-Shots Commander Level

"It's a Commander Level Earth Burrowing Rockworm!"

Through his formidable Soul Power, Dongfang Chen sensed a Commander Level Demonic Beast burrowing beneath Bocheng.

The Earth Burrowing Rockworm was a massive demonic worm, incredibly fast at digging through the ground.

If it was allowed to keep rampaging under Bocheng like this, the entire city would be flipped over.

The completion of Dongfang Chen's mission to protect "Wutan City" would also be severely compromised.

If a High-Tier Mage specializing in Earth Element Magic were present, they could use earth magic to forcibly drag it out of the ground.

Unfortunately, Dongfang Chen's Earth Element Magic was only at Novice Level 3, nowhere near enough to affect a Commander Level Demonic Beast.

"A demonic beast that can burrow?! If we leave it alone, the refugees in shelter are in danger."

Mofan's face turned grim.

He had just learned from Ye Xin Xia about Bocheng's current situation.

Though the city had been hit by a Demonic Beast Tide, most residents had already evacuated to safe quarantine zones.

But if this burrowing beast tunneled all the way from underground to those safe zones... the consequences would be unthinkable!

"Don't worry, I have a way."

Dongfang Chen prepared to strike using his formidable Soul Power!

A mere Mortal Realm Soul Power wouldn't be enough for an effective Soul Attack, but Dongfang Chen's Soul Power had already reached the Spirit Realm!

The Spirit Realm Soul Power was a reward from the system.

Dongfang Chen had long been puzzled about how to achieve the "Knowing" stage in the acquaintance missions.

It wasn't until a few days ago, after further intimate contact with Mu Ningxue, that he finally understood.

So this Crazy System's "Knowing" stage meant knowing each other's "roots" and "depths"!

That made sense—mutual understanding of each other's physical structure counted as a form of "knowing" after all.

After completing the "Knowing" stage with Mu Ningxue (Nalan Yanran), the system rewarded Dongfang Chen with Spirit Realm Soul Power and a Mysterious Tier High Rank Soul Skill, the Soul Hand Seal!

With the Soul Hand Seal, Dongfang Chen could unleash a sharper Soul Attack!

Though Mind Element Magic could also provide some Mental Attack capability, Spirit Realm Soul Power combined with the Soul Hand Seal was far stronger than a Novice Level mind spell.

A surge of vast Soul Power erupted from between Dongfang Chen's brows, its sheer force forming a small chaotic storm around him.

At the same time, Dongfang Chen's hands swiftly formed a seal, and his brow tightened sharply.

Soul Hand Seal!

The moment the seal was completed, the chaotic Soul Power around him instantly became orderly, rapidly condensing into a sharp Soul Thorn!

"Go!"

With a sharp shout from Dongfang Chen, the invisible Soul Thorn ignored the hard concrete, pierced through the thick soil, and shot straight underground.

The Soul Thorn was incredibly fast; the moment Dongfang Chen's voice faded, it struck the Commander Level Demonic Beast frantically burrowing beneath Bocheng!

Boom!

Its soul damaged, the Earth Burrowing Rockworm burst out of the ground in a frenzy, wanting to see who had Sneak Attacked it!

Boom!

With a thunderous roar and violent shaking of the ground, the Earth Burrowing Rockworm's elongated body broke through the surface.

Mofan stared at the massive demonic figure ahead, every hair on his body standing on end.

Because the Earth Burrowing Rockworm had burst straight up, its long, enormous form loomed briefly before them.

It was a colossal worm-like body, its exterior covered in a hard rocky shell. Though not fully emerged from the earth, the part exposed to the air alone was nearly as tall as the Yinmao Building!

Mofan sucked in a cold breath, every inch of him trembling.

Why was something this massive appearing in Bocheng?

He instinctively asked Dongfang Chen beside him, "Can we win against... something this huge?"

"We will win."

Dongfang Chen Looked Towards Mofan.

"You'll need to keep what happens next a secret for me, or I'll have no choice but to silence you."

With that, Dongfang Chen channeled his Dou Qi and leaped high into the air.

As the Dou Qi flowed, a pair of ornate wings suddenly unfurled from his back.

Purple Cloud Wings!

Dongfang Chen controlled the deep purple eagle wings on his back, soaring from the ground up into the sky.

The Earth Burrowing Rockworm had just burst out of the ground, still searching for who had sneak attacked it, when the very next second it felt a fierce gale of force hurtling toward it.

Bang!

Dongfang Chen, carrying surging Dou Qi, smashed his fist heavily into the Rockworm's head.

High-grade Profound Tier Dou Technique, Eight Extremes Burst!

A dull thud rang out from the Rockworm's head. The overbearing force shattered the rocky shell protecting its skull into palm-sized fragments.

No sooner had that force dissipated than another, even more domineering wave of power struck.

This was the hidden strength of Eight Extremes Burst!

Over the years, due to the lack of a Dou Qi environment, Dongfang Chen's Dou Qi Cultivation hadn't advanced quickly, but he had never let the proficiency of the various techniques he obtained from System Missions and Sign-in Spots fall behind.

He had nearly maxed out the proficiency of most of his techniques!

Eight Extremes Burst was no exception!

One after another, the hidden forces attached to the Rockworm's head struck.

The intervals between them were extremely short—in the blink of an eye, all Eight Layers of Hidden Strength contained within Eight Extremes Burst had fully bloomed on the Rockworm's head!

Pfft!

After eight muffled thuds rang out in succession, a gap the size of a room door was blasted open in the Rockworm's head, which was as large as a villa.

A torrent of blood mixed with brain matter gushed wildly from the opening. Because the Rockworm had held its head high, the flowing blood cascaded down like a small waterfall.

Then, the Rockworm's entire massive body collapsed limply to the ground.

On the ground, Mofan stared with his eyes wide open, unable to believe what he had just witnessed.

His mouth hung open in shock, nearly big enough to fit a washbasin.

This was Mofan's first time seeing a Commander Level Demonic Beast. Aside from that, his knowledge of such beasts came only from textbooks.

But whether from firsthand witness or textbook descriptions, Mofan was certain that a Commander Level Demonic Beast was like a natural disaster for a small city like Bocheng.

Yet a demonic beast of that caliber had been taken down in one shot by Dongfang Chen?

"A Commander... Commander Level demonic beast, taken down just like that?"

Mofan muttered under his breath.

He abruptly looked toward Mu Ningxue and Ye Xin Xia, only to find no surprise on either of their faces.

"You... aren't you shocked? That was a Commander Level!"

Ye Xin Xia smiled gently. "Not shocked, because Brother Chen is just that strong."

Since Dongfang Chen also trained in Dou Qi regularly, he hadn't hidden This Matter from Ye Xin Xia and Mu Ningxue.

So the Two Girls weren't surprised at all.

Mu Ningxue shot Mofan a cold glare. "You'd better keep this buried in your gut. Otherwise, even if Chen doesn't silence you, I will."

Although Dou Qi could currently only be cultivated by Chen alone, Mu Ningxue deeply understood the power of this force. Until Chen had grown strong enough, it absolutely could not be exposed.
