Mortal entry stage five

"Do you know how powerful I am when I go all out?"

Those words echoed in everyone's ears, provoking them again and again.

"That's right. We've never known just how strong Shen Fei is at full power. Even against Liu Yiming, who was at mortal entry stage three level nine peak, he defeated him with nothing but his physique and Taijutsu. He never even brought out his true strength!"

"Don't forget, Shen Fei is at mortal entry stage four level nine peak. Is it strange that he beat Liu Yiming, who was at mortal entry stage three level nine peak?"

"Shen Fei may be powerful, but if the Devour-Slaughter Pig reaches mortal entry stage five, I don't think he'll stand a chance against it."

"Exactly. Mortal entry stage five is a dividing line. Once you enter mortal entry stage five, your Esper Ability undergoes earth-shattering changes, and Fierce Beasts become even stronger..."

"Shen Fei may be powerful, but he's still far too arrogant."

"..."

Yun Yongfeng pondered. Shen Fei's words had not dispelled his concerns. Just as they had said, once humans reached mortal entry stage five, their Esper Abilities underwent earth-shattering changes, while Fierce Beasts awakened powerful abilities...

And without having reached mortal entry stage five, Shen Fei would not know how powerful it was.

So if the Devour-Slaughter Pig really reached mortal entry stage five, Shen Fei's chances of winning would be very low.

At this point, he had no choice but to prepare a backup plan. Yun Yongfeng took out his phone and called Lin Qiye.

Unfortunately, Lin Qiye could not return quickly. He still needed a day or two.

Left with no alternative, Yun Yongfeng mobilized over a thousand special forces personnel to surround the place.

If Shen Fei really lost and the situation turned dire, they would deploy weapons of mass destruction and raze this place to the ground!

Seeing everyone's grave expressions, Bian Zhuyue said quietly, "Maybe the Devour-Slaughter Pig hasn't reached mortal entry stage five yet... If Shen Fei gets there and goes all out, with mortal entry stage four level nine peak against mortal entry stage four level seven, he'll definitely win."

No one spoke. They knew just how terrifying the Devour-Slaughter Pig was...

Yun Yongfeng led everyone in evacuating the staff from the Transcendent Administration Bureau...

Meanwhile.

Inside the Extraordinary Cage.

The floor, which had originally looked thoroughly high-tech, was now covered in the blood and remains of over a dozen Fierce Beasts. Thick blood bubbled hotly across the floor, making for an utterly horrifying sight.

The Devour-Slaughter Pig was bathed in thick blood, and its body had grown larger than before. If he had previously been the size of two bulls, the Devour-Slaughter Pig was now as large as four.

The spiritual energy fluctuations it emitted had reached an astonishing 4,999-in other words, mortal entry stage four level nine peak!

It was just one step away from mortal entry stage five!

Just then, the Devour-Slaughter Pig seemed to catch a mouthwatering scent. It moved its thick limbs and headed toward the source.

That direction led straight to the combat room!!!

Liu Yiming was in danger!

Liu Yiming was still lying on the floor in a daze, thinking about the battle earlier and replaying it over and over in his mind.

But no matter how he thought it through, he had no chance of winning.

Shen Fei's perception was astonishing. He seemed able to anticipate every attack, dodge it with ease, and then repeatedly strike Liu Yiming during the openings left by his attacks.

And Shen Fei had not even used the Fire Elemental Ability and Space Ability he excelled at.

In other words, Shen Fei could land hits on Liu Yiming, but Liu Yiming could not touch Shen Fei. From the very beginning, Liu Yiming had never had the slightest chance of winning. The entire battle had been Shen Fei testing Liu Yiming's full strength.

"Shen Fei, what do I have to do to defeat you..."

"What do I have to do to catch up with you..."

"I can't accept losing just like that!"

Suddenly, a tremendous noise came from outside.

An enormous creature smashed straight through the combat room's door.

Liu Yiming jolted. Bracing his hands against the floor, he sat up and looked up, his pupils instantly contracting.

"The Devour-Slaughter Pig?!"

This is bad!

In an instant, Liu Yiming understood his predicament.

Not long ago, he had used his Esper Ability at full power, nearly exhausting the spiritual energy in his body. Now, he barely had any spiritual energy left to activate his Esper Ability. How could he possibly contend with the mortal entry stage four Fierce Beast before him?!

Oink, oink-

The Devour-Slaughter Pig let out grunting laughter, feeling very pleased with itself.

So it's you. You used to swagger around outside the mortal entry stage four cage, always saying that once you reached mortal entry stage four, you'd come in and kill me, beat me to death with your fists? Hehehe! Now I'm out. Let's see who beats whom to death! Once I eat you, I'll grow stronger again... The Devour-Slaughter Pig was utterly excited now.

It strode toward Liu Yiming.

Seeing that things were looking bad.

Liu Yiming hurriedly got up and tried to flee, but the Devour-Slaughter Pig was not about to give him that chance.

The Devour-Slaughter Pig thrust out its right leg and stomped at Liu Yiming!

Left with no choice, Liu Yiming released all the Spiritual Power remaining in his body and activated Esper Ability Amplified Scale Armor Transformation again. A layer of earthen-yellow scales instantly covered his entire body.

Then he rolled hard, dodging the Devour-Slaughter Pig's lethal stomp.

The Devour-Slaughter Pig grunted, drew a deep breath, and violently blew it out.

In an instant, a fierce gale erupted. Its terrifying force sent Liu Yiming flying and slammed him hard against the wall.

Bang-

Liu Yiming spat out a mouthful of blood.

He slid down the wall, his aura weakening somewhat.

Shen Fei had already injured him. How could he now withstand a Devour-Slaughter Pig at mortal entry stage four level nine peak?

The Devour-Slaughter Pig hesitated no longer. It approached the corner, stretched its mouth forward, and bit into Liu Yiming's body!

"Aah-"

Liu Yiming screamed in agony.

The Devour-Slaughter Pig raised its head and swallowed Liu Yiming's lower body.

Suddenly.

A surge of pure Spiritual Power burst inside the Devour-Slaughter Pig's stomach, and its aura kept rising-

Boom-

An explosive sound erupted throughout the Devour-Slaughter Pig's body, and another white light silently covered it from head to toe.

A few seconds later.

The Devour-Slaughter Pig mutated again.

This time, its size did not change, but its hair did. The hair, which had originally resembled spikes, became fluffy and looked incredibly soft. In reality, however, it could now freely control the hardness of its hair!

The Devour-Slaughter Pig's eyes also changed from scarlet to a normal black. In other words, it would no longer be controlled by slaughter, and its mind had become sharper.

At the same time, it seemed to have awakened other powers!

The excitement its advancement brought lingered for a long time.

It turned its gaze toward Liu Yiming, who was not quite dead yet, and opened its mouth again, intending to devour him completely!

Liu Yiming could no longer resist. If his scale armor had not been sustaining the last of his life, keeping him clinging to his final breath, he would have died long ago.

He despaired and regretted it... If he had not fought Shen Fei, he would not have ended up dying here!

But just then.

A voice came from afar.

"Fire Style: Majestic Destroyer Flame!"
