Chapter 99: Overwhelming Power
Chapter 99: Overwhelming Power (Requesting Monthly Votes)
Lin Qi’s eyes narrowed as the Obsidian Horn Boar charged.
Its speed was astonishing!
Even in a straight-line burst, Lin Qi couldn’t match it. After all, he was just a newly-minted Second Realm martial artist with limited Vital Energy reserves.
There was no time to dodge. Lin Qi swiftly adjusted his spear technique, raising his fifty-pound spear sideways like a shield to block the frontal assault.
Rock Solid Spear Techniques — Unyielding Shield Parry!
“Boom!!”
“Clang!”
A thunderous collision erupted. Lin Qi’s body was hurled backward, the boar’s razor-sharp horn slashing across the Thunderhorn Longspear’s surface, leaving a visible gash in the metal amid flying sparks.
Lin Qi soared through the air before crashing into a cluster of tables and chairs, shattering them into splinters.
“Haaah… haaah…”
Shaking its head fiercely, the Obsidian Horn Boar’s robust physique enabled it to launch another attack immediately.
Meanwhile, Lin Qi flipped upright like a gymnast, his arms numb and palms throbbing. His internal organs felt strained as well.
Jiang Tao, watching nearby, widened his eyes and exclaimed, “No way! Brother Qi can still stand up?!”
“Hmph!”
“I practice the Ape Form Fist. Even with my reinforced body, getting hit like that cracked my bones and ended the fight for me. A regular person would’ve died instantly from shattered organs and bones.”
Jiang Miaoyin asked anxiously, “Big Brother Lin Qi, can you defeat the Obsidian Horn Boar?”
“Brother Qi’s body is practically steel. Don’t worry about him — look at Li Zhou instead!”
They turned to Li Zhou’s side. His situation was dire.
He’d been flung backward by the boar’s iron-like tail, crashing into a pile of furniture and smearing himself with hotpot spices. He looked utterly wretched.
Compared to Li Zhou’s predicament, Lin Qi’s situation was far better.
Though the boar’s charge had transferred immense force through his spear, his Steelbone ability allowed his tendons to absorb much of the shock, protecting his skeleton and organs.
His bones, as resilient as steel, could withstand tremendous impacts.
Thankfully I awakened the Steelbone innate talent, Lin Qi mused. Otherwise, my bones would’ve cracked too. After all, the Obsidian Horn Boar is a Second-tier Disaster Beast — its sheer power eclipses that of humans.
“Hrrrr!”
The boar snarled contemptuously, leaping forward. Its hooves, sharp horn, and whip-like tail could tear through flesh and bone upon closing the distance.
Lin Qi charged, his eyes piercing as he analyzed every movement of the beast, each action seemingly in slow motion.
He spotted its weaknesses — eyes, mouth, neck, belly, and even its anal region. But these were small, well-protected targets, nearly impossible to hit while the boar was in motion.
Most couldn’t pull it off. But Lin Qi wasn’t most people.
Suddenly, his aura surged, a killing intent spreading like a tiger descending the mountain.
Power surged from his core, his spine straightening like a coiled dragon, tendons tensing as energy built.
Explosively, his muscles bulged, blood roared in his veins, and Vital Energy surged as his body reached peak activation.
Now at full power, his strength reached unprecedented heights.
Veins bulging, tendons writhing, he channeled all his might into the spear’s tip.
The weapon vibrated violently as he spun his arms rapidly.
“Wooooom!!”
In an instant, the spinning spear shot forward like a drilling dragon, creating violent air currents.
The surrounding air compressed into tangible waves, faint cracks of stone shattering echoing.
Mountain-Shattering Spear Method, Third Annihilation Move — Rockburst Drill!
“Pftt~”
The air split with a piercing whistle.
The killing strike erupted, obliterating all obstacles in its path with sheer, unrelenting force.
Lin Qi unleashed his full thousand-jin strength.
“Grrrr!”
The boar sensed danger but couldn’t stop.
The distance closed instantly. Lin Qi’s eyes gleamed as his spear aimed straight for the boar’s eye.
The tip flashed coldly, striking true in an instant.
“Pu~”
The sharp silver spear pierced the boar’s eye socket, penetrating its skull.
“Grrrrr~”
Mid-air, the boar’s body convulsed wildly, its limbs thrashing as blood gushed from the wound, splattering the ground.
After a few spasms, it went still.
“Drip!”
Lin Qi kicked the corpse fiercely, yanking his black-red spear free.
“Boom!”
The boar’s body slammed heavily onto the ground, skidding until it collided with an Ironthorn Boar’s corpse.
A Second-tier Disaster Beast — the Obsidian Horn Boar — lay dead. One down.
Jiang Tao and Jiang Miaoyin watched, stunned.
“Is this still my Brother Qi? He’s too insane!!”
“He faced a Second-tier Disaster Beast head-on without yielding, even killing it!” Jiang Tao was awestruck.
“Big Brother Lin Qi is so handsome!” Jiang Miaoyin gushed, captivated by Lin Qi’s tall, imposing figure gripping the bloodied spear.
“He won!”
Lin Zhen and Fang Huiyi exchanged glances, their faces flushed with excitement.
“Little Qi’s truly incredible — he actually won!!”
“Boom!!”
“Cough!”
Elsewhere, a massive figure flew through the air and crashed into an Ironthorn Boar corpse.
Li Zhou felt searing pain, his arms numb and useless.
“I underestimated myself.”
Realizing his overconfidence, he cursed his recent Second Realm breakthrough.
The beast’s power was far beyond his capacity.
Covered in blood and dust, he looked pitiful.
He struggled to lift his head, watching the boar charge again, despair creeping into his heart.
Is this where I die?
He was young, full of potential — dying here felt unbearable.
“Beast, die!!”
A furious roar echoed. A figure shot forth like lightning.
“Lin Qi?!”
Li Zhou spotted the charging figure, surprised. How did he get here?
Confusion flooded his mind, but relief washed over him — at least he’d survive.
Sensing Li Zhou’s peril, Lin Qi charged instantly, his spear flashing at blinding speed.
His figure darted forward, feet digging into the ground as he thrust his spear like lightning.
Dripping Water Spear Art, Third Annihilation Move — Phantom Flash!
The spear’s tip gleamed, piercing the air in an instant, leaving only a faint afterimage.
Its speed was unparalleled.
The boar sensed danger, twisting its head as its horn slashed toward the incoming weapon.
“Clang~”
“Pu~”
The spear and horn collided, throwing sparks. The impact deflected the spear slightly, slicing the boar’s scalp and drawing blood.
Lin Qi frowned — the beast had dodged.
This Obsidian Horn Boar was stronger than the previous one, explaining why Li Zhou couldn’t win.
Need to be more cautious!
