The Great Battle Was Imminent! A Fight to the Death Against Vice Provincial Governor Ye Yongsheng!
With the continuous sacrifice of his Essence Blood, the changes in Ye Yongsheng's body became increasingly profound.
In an instant, it transformed from a half-human, half-beast form into a completely Exotic Beast.
His pupils were bloodshot and bright red.
It has two wings on its back and its surface is covered with fleshy spines.
Two huge, sharp horns were on its head, from which vital energy flowed continuously.
His muscles bulged high, exuding explosive power.
His massive, muscular body, standing before the city leaders who were besieging him, was like an unfathomable mountain, exuding immense pressure.
"Boom!"
A terrifying explosion was heard.
Having completely transformed into an Exotic Beast, Ye Yongsheng suddenly unleashed an extremely powerful aura, causing the surrounding air to shatter like broken glass.
The city leaders who were besieging him were all blasted away by this oppressive force.
They were all bleeding from all seven orifices, and were seriously injured.
Several of the weaker individuals were so shaken that their souls were shaken and they lost consciousness on the spot.
"Buzz!"
After dealing with the flies around him, Ye Yongsheng flashed towards Lin Zichen.
It moved so fast that it created a piercing whistling sound as it scraped through the air, tearing open countless shocking cracks in the Void.
Transforming into Exotic Beast, his strength increased dramatically, directly reaching the Tier 9 of Legendary.
It is only one step away from becoming a supreme, Mythical Tier being.
Raising one's Biological Rank so much in a short period of time requires an unimaginable price.
One of the biggest costs is that the body that has mutated into Exotic Beast will be unable to revert to human form.
However, this was not a problem for Ye Yongsheng at all.
He has been stationed here in the Origin Land for many years, entering countless ancient and mysterious Ruins and obtaining a large number of rare treasures.
Among these rare treasures is a mysterious, jet-black bead that allows one's own consciousness to invade the consciousness of another being, thus usurping their place.
In layman's terms, it's called "possession."
Now, having been stuck at the Legendary Tier for countless years and having reached the end of his evolutionary path, he is going to possess Lin Zichen's miraculous body and use Lin Zichen's body to prove himself as Mythical Tier being.
This way, not only can the previously blocked path of evolution be reopened, but the Alien Race can also be freed from its control.
His ability to become the Vice Provincial Governor and evolve into Legendary high-level powerhouse was inseparable from the support of the Alien Race.
To gain the support of Alien Race, one must sell oneself to Alien Race.
Now, his body is filled with insurance from Alien Race.
If he dares to be disloyal, the Alien Race can easily take his life at any time.
"Quick, stop him!"
"Stop this Human Traitor scoundrel!"
"Don't let him get near Lin Zichen!"
Seeing Ye Yongsheng, who had transformed into Exotic Beast, fly rapidly toward Lin Zichen, a white-haired, white-bearded city leader immediately shouted to warn his colleagues.
As the sound faded, his entire body erupted with energy, frantically sacrificing his Essence Blood to catch up with Ye Yongsheng at top speed and prevent this Human Traitor Deputy City Lord from getting close to Lin Zichen.
His Biological Rank was lower than Ye Yongsheng's, but thanks to the powerful flying Exotic Beast genes within him, he flew to Ye Yongsheng's side in the blink of an eye, blocking Ye Yongsheng's path.
"Overestimating one's abilities."
Ye Yongsheng's eyes were full of disdain when he saw the white-haired old man who came to stop him.
The white-haired old man remained unmoved upon hearing this.
He was very self-aware and knew that he couldn't stop Ye Yongsheng from getting close to Lin Zichen with his own strength.
However, normal methods are insufficient to stop it.
If unorthodox methods are used, there is still a chance of successfully stopping it.
"Provincial Governor Ye, I am different from you. I will not betray my people for my own benefit, but I will sell myself for their benefit."
The white-haired old man spoke these words with an unwavering calm, during which all his vital energy and spirit were completely exhausted, transforming into a surge of energy that continuously expanded within his body.
Sensing the ever-expanding energy within the white-haired old man, Ye Yongsheng's expression changed, and he cursed loudly:
"You motherfucker!"
The moment the insults subsided.
The white-haired old man in front of Ye Yongsheng began to swell up like a balloon, and countless red-glowing cracks began to appear on his body.
Then, there was a loud "boom".
The white-haired old man's body exploded.
An explosive blast, far more terrifying than a nuclear explosion, instantly spread out from the white-haired old man's shattered body, destroying everything in its path.
Ye Yongsheng was the closest and was the first to be hit by the explosive blast.
The massive, mountain-like body was instantly sent flying backward like a kite with a broken string.
Other city leaders who were a little further away also couldn't withstand the impact and were sent flying backward.
The city below was not spared either; countless creatures were affected, instantly bleeding from all seven orifices and suffering severe injuries.
Some creatures of slightly lower Biological Rank had their souls shattered by the shockwave, losing all their vitality and becoming lifeless corpses, forever left on this desolate battlefield.
Upon sensing the powerful energy surge, Lin Zichen, who was some distance away, instantly teleported in front of Shen Qinghan and shielded her with his own body.
About ten seconds later.
The shockwave from the white-haired old man's self-destruction gradually subsided.
Lin Zichen looked up and glanced around.
The scenes that met the eye were either ruins or corpses strewn everywhere.
The scene was extremely horrific.
The self-destruction of a Legendary Tier creature was so powerful that it nearly wiped the entire battlefield off the map, turning it into a desolate wasteland.
"Lin Zi, what just happened...?"
Shen Qinghan peeked out from Lin Zichen's arms, looking at the horrific scene around her, her heart filled with unease.
Lin Zichen didn't rush to answer, but instead looked up at Ye Yongsheng high in the sky.
Seeing that the Human Traitor Vice Provincial Governor had only suffered a minor injury with blood trickling from the corner of his mouth, Lin Zichen's expression immediately became serious.
The self-destruction of a Legendary Tier creature, at such close range, only caused Ye Yongsheng such minor damage.
Ye Yongsheng's strength is far greater than imagined.
Thinking of this, Lin Zichen unconsciously frowned, feeling somewhat uncertain.
Before this, he always believed that as long as he evolved to the Legendary Tier level, he would have a chance to cooperate with the city's leaders to take down Ye Yongsheng.
In hindsight, we were perhaps a bit too optimistic before.
To defeat Ye Yongsheng, I need to continue absorbing more and evolve further...
With this thought in mind, Lin Zichen released Shen Qinghan from his arms and dashed off to other parts of the city.
The white-haired old man's self-destruction just now killed many creatures in the city.
Indiscriminate attack.
Whether they were of the same race or Alien Race, as long as their Biological Rank was slightly lower and they were too close, they were basically killed on the spot by the shockwave.
Kill a thousand enemies, but lose eight hundred of your own.
The worst part is that the enemy they wanted to kill was never actually killed.
They only killed insignificant shrimp soldiers and crab generals.
This self-destruction was essentially a wasted effort.
The only benefit was that it created a large number of Alien Race corpses on the battlefield, making it easier for Lin Zichen to devour them.
[You have absorbed a large amount of the Life Origin of the "Cat Salamander Demon," gaining the Biological Attribute - Advanced Agility]
[Advanced Sensitivity: Your five senses are greatly enhanced]
[You have absorbed a large amount of the Source Power of the Cat Salamander Demon. The Source Power has been converted into Vitality and Spirit, and your Vitality and Spirit strength have been increased to a certain extent.]
[You have devoured a large amount of the Life Origin of the "Void Vine Snake," gaining the Biological Attribute - Advanced Stealth]
[Advanced Stealth: You can perfectly blend into any environment to avoid enemies]
[...]
Lin Zichen wasted no time, quickly moving across the battlefield to devour the corpses of Alien Race and absorb the Source Power within them to accelerate his evolution.
On the other side.
Ye Yongsheng looked up at the center of the white-haired old man's self-destruction, still feeling lingering fear.
If I hadn't managed to harden my entire body in time, I would most likely have been severely injured by the force of the white-haired old man's self-destruction.
"Zhang Qing, I never imagined you would go to such lengths, willing to sacrifice your life for the future of humanity."
"It's a pity he died in vain."
"Your self-destruction didn't hurt me in the slightest."
Ye Yongsheng's lips curled into a slight smile, his expression full of mockery.
After mocking the deceased white-haired old man, he quickly turned his gaze to Lin Zichen in the distance, a hint of fanaticism in his eyes.
Lin Zichen's physical body possesses too many incredible abilities, making him an undisputed Mythical figure.
As long as one can obtain Lin Zichen's physical body, becoming Mythical Tier being is just around the corner.
"Your physical body is strong, but it will soon be mine..."
Ye Yongsheng muttered something, then his body transformed into a blur, rushing towards Lin Zichen, who was devouring corpses on the ground, at top speed.
Upon seeing this, the city leaders, disregarding the internal injuries they had sustained from the white-haired old man's self-destruction, immediately gave chase one after another.
They had all witnessed Lin Zichen's astonishingly rapid evolution and knew of Lin Zichen importance.
Barring any unforeseen circumstances, Lin Zichen will be the future of humanity.
Therefore, we must do everything we can to protect Lin Zichen at this moment.
They would even risk self-destruction.
Ground.
Lin Zichen frantically devoured the corpses of the Alien Race.
Its devouring speed is comparable to that of a locust swarm.
In just a short while, the Alien Race corpses on the ground were completely devoured.
After devouring the corpse of a Wood Spirit.
A text message slowly emerged from the Void of my mind.
[Your Biological Rank has successfully evolved from "Legendary Tier 1" to "Legendary Tier 2"]
Legendary has it Tier 2!
Looking at the notification message in the Void, Lin Zichen felt a surge of excitement.
If he was a little unsure about facing Ye Yongsheng when he was at the Tier 1 of the Legendary, he is now at the Tier 2 of the Legendary and is full of confidence.
"Buzz!"
Suddenly, a loud whooshing sound rang out.
The moment Lin Zichen heard the voice, he sensed that Ye Yongsheng had arrived.
Without the slightest hesitation, he swiftly unleashed his inner energy and spirit, soaring into the sky at top speed to get as far away from the city as possible.
He wanted to shift the battleground from inside the city to outside the city to avoid affecting Shen Qinghan.
"So fast!"
Seeing Lin Zichen soar into the sky in the blink of an eye, instantly rushing out of the city and reaching a dangerous area dozens of miles away, Ye Yongsheng couldn't help but show his shock.
Lin Zichen is too fast.
Ye Yongsheng, whose Biological Rank had reached the Legendary Tier 9, was momentarily speechless and found it hard to believe.
The speed that Lin Zichen was displaying at this moment was not like that of a newly Legendary Tier expert, but rather like that of a Legendary high-level expert.
This not only shocked Ye Yongsheng, but also the city's leaders.
"What special abilities does Lin Zichen's body possess that make him so ridiculously strong?"
Ye Yongsheng chased after Lin Zichen at high speed, his heart filled with curiosity.
The same curiosity also lingered in the minds of the city leaders who followed.
The city leaders were all shocked by Lin Zichen's astonishing speed, their hearts filled with doubt and confusion.
They had lived in the Origin Land for many years and had seen all sorts of unprecedented evolutionary geniuses, but this was the first time they had ever seen an evolutionary genius like Lin Zichen, who was completely contrary to common sense.
About ten seconds later.
Lin Zichen, who was just in the city, is now in a place thousands of miles away from the city.
This area is an endless ocean.
The surface was calm and peaceful.
Undercurrents were swirling beneath the surface.
Lin Zichen chose to fight Ye Yongsheng here because he could escape even if he couldn't win.
The ocean is vast and mysterious; it is boundless and unfathomable.
The success rate of escaping by water is far greater than that of escaping by land.
"Buzz!"
A sharp whooshing sound rang out.
Two seconds after Lin Zichen stopped on the sea surface, Ye Yongsheng caught up.
He hovered over the sea several hundred meters away from Lin Zichen, at a height significantly higher than Lin Zichen, just enough to give him a commanding view.
"I'm really curious, how did you manage to evolve into a Legendary Tier creature at just 20 years old? You can gain evolutionary benefits from corpses, right?"
Ye Yongsheng looked down at Lin Zichen and asked, without immediately making a move against Lin Zichen.
He wasn't in a hurry.
He could sense that the Wood God's side in the Central Region had the advantage, and no Mythical Tier powerhouse had time to come and cause trouble here.
Most importantly, he wanted to learn as much as possible about Lin Zichen before attempting to possess her.
In this way, once the possession is successful, a lot of energy and time can be saved from exploring unfamiliar bodies.
"Buzz!"
"Buzz!"
"Buzz!"
A few seconds later, a series of whooshing sounds rang out.
The city leaders, who were moving at a slower pace, also arrived one after another in the air above the sea, gathering together and hovering opposite Ye Yongsheng.
Facing this group of former subordinates, Ye Yongsheng felt nothing but contempt and didn't take them seriously at all.
In this world, only Mythical Tier beings are worthy of his attention.
In his eyes, a mere group of Legendary Tier creatures was no different from ants.
"Lin Zichen, you go first, go as far as you can. We'll deal with this Human Traitor!"
The city leader, speaking in a strong and clear voice, looked at Lin Zichen and shouted.
He felt that joining forces to kill Ye Yongsheng was unrealistic.
The only realistic option was for him and his colleagues to desperately hold off Ye Yongsheng, creating an opportunity for Lin Zichen to escape.
Faced with the city leader's good intentions, Lin Zichen calmly replied, "No, running away is only a temporary solution. I think it's better to work together to get rid of this Human Traitor."
