"Life Shackles, Fifth · Origin Lock, open!"
Zhao Qiu crossed his hands before his forehead and opened the final lock of the Life Shackles!
Building on the first four locks, the Origin Lock burned every inch of skin, every muscle, every nerve, every bone, and every drop of blood in his body.
By burning himself, he transcended everything and gained enough power to overcome anything!
The increase in power the Origin Lock granted was greater than that of the first four locks combined!
But greater power often came at a greater price.
The Origin Lock increased his power by burning his body. Every second, Zhao Qiu's blood burned!
"Hah!"
After opening the Origin Lock, Zhao Qiu charged forward without hesitation, shooting out like a blood-red meteor.
The Fusion Mutant Beast reacted immediately, sweeping all five tails toward him at once.
"Fierce Elephant!"
Zhao Qiu threw a punch. The friction between his fist and the air produced a white column of compressed air.
One punch!
With just one devastating punch, he severed all five of the Fusion Mutant Beast's tails in a single stroke!
The Fusion Mutant Beast roared in pain and fury, blood pouring from the wounds where its tails had been severed.
Its five remaining heads gathered spiritual energy again and fired five enormous energy blasts at Zhao Qiu.
Zhao Qiu raced forward, stepping on the air itself. With nimble movements, he dodged all five energy blasts in succession and reached the space above the Fusion Mutant Beast, where its defenses were weakest.
Then he brought his foot down like a meteor.
"Night Dragon!"
His spiritual energy transformed into a savage blood dragon. With a draconic roar that shook the heavens, his kick slammed into the Fusion Mutant Beast.
Squelch!
The Fusion Mutant Beast's body shattered like tofu beneath
