The third level of the Surging Wave Skill instantly enhanced both the quality and quantity of his Inner Energy.
Lu Chengchuan cast off his earlier disadvantage. He chased the lizard monster and punched it in the chest again. Triple Force exploded within its body, blasting its flesh apart.
Scarlet blood flowed from the gaps between its scales and quickly became part of the Blood Mist.
The effect of the three layers of force was obvious. Lu Chengchuan continued throwing punches, and bolstered by his immense Inner Energy, every move he made carried tremendous power.
His fist came down, reducing the lizard monster to a bloody mess.
The lizard monster did not understand why the human had suddenly become stronger. The scales it had been so proud of could not block that strange force. As its injuries worsened, it grew increasingly frenzied.
With his martial arts level having broken through, Lu Chengchuan's strength rose again.
They had been evenly matched before, but now he was utterly suppressing the lizard monster. Every punch sent blood spraying from its body. After more than a dozen blows, it was a mangled mass of flesh, its scales shattered and falling away.
The two people watching from the stairwell were equally unable to understand how he had suddenly become so fierce.
Under Lu Chengchuan's onslaught, the monster was beaten half to death. Refusing to give it a chance to catch its breath and recover, he knocked it down with a punch, then pinned it beneath him and rained heavy blows upon its head.
Two punches left the lizard monster dazed, and even the horn on its head was broken off.
After shattering its scales, Lu Chengchuan raised his arm high. Inner Energy surged through it, his flesh swelling until his arm was thicker than his thigh.
