Sensing the whistling sound of an attack from behind, Feng Qi whirled around and threw a punch.
The punch carried immense force, its momentum generating a sonic boom as it swung.
Boom!
His fist collided with Little Cripple's right leg, the impact sending shockwaves rippling outward. The ground beneath their feet cracked under the immense pressure, then abruptly sank.
The clash of power ignited the primal rage within Feng Qi's heart.
With a thunderous roar, he thrust his fist forward, sending Little Cripple flying backward.
Blood mist erupted from his body, enveloping him in a crimson shroud.
At that moment, Feng Qi stood like a demon risen from hell.
Just as he prepared to press his advantage against Little Cripple, another unfamiliar figure emerged from the metal corridor.
This figure was remarkably slender, roughly the same size as the Blue-skinned Assassin.
It wielded a golden scepter, wore a long white robe, and had golden markings etched into its forehead. Even its eyes were pure gold, with concentric golden rings swirling within its pupils.
The golden scepter struck the ground.
A pair of massive, pristine white wings suddenly unfurled from its back.
Seeing this, Feng Qi chose to continue pursuing Little Cripple, determined to kill him first before dealing with the newly emerged enemy.
Be careful. The energy within this creature is exceptionally pure, far surpassing that of domain creatures like Little Cripple. I initially assumed Little Cripple was the ruler of Star City Shelter, but it seems I was mistaken.
As the Narrator issued this warning, the domain creature with the scepter turned its gaze toward him.
A golden orb of light materialized from the scepter and shot forward at incredible speed, intercepting Feng Qi's pursuit of Little Cripple.
Feng Qi showed no intention of stopping.
But the moment his body collided with the golden orb, he felt an immense force pushing back against him.
The golden orb then began to orbit around him.
A golden coffin, intricately carved with patterns, materialized around Feng Qi as golden orbs swirled around him, tightly encasing him.
This was the first time Feng Qi had encountered a systematic ability within the Dream Realm.
Previously, when facing domain creatures, he had relied solely on his bloodline's innate abilities in combat, lacking the art magic and other techniques humans had developed to amplify their combat prowess.
As the golden coffin solidified, Feng Qi felt pressure closing in from all sides.
With a roar, he tensed his body, straining against the coffin's oppressive force, attempting to shatter it with brute strength.
Sensing his intent, the slender golden figure standing before the metal corridor raised its scepter once more.
The golden orbs still hovering in the air merged into the coffin.
A magnificent golden disc pattern materialized on the coffin's surface, and Feng Qi, trapped inside, immediately felt a mysterious force invading his Mental Consciousness.
This dual assault on both his mind and body doubled the pressure he faced.
The oppressive force intensified with each struggle, leaving him no choice but to grit his teeth, endure, and search for an opportunity to counterattack.
Suddenly, a voice echoed in his mind, but it wasn't the Narrator's.
"Release your consciousness. Allow me to imprint my mark upon you, and then submit to me!"
Realizing the domain creature binding him was communicating telepathically, Feng Qi spat through clenched teeth, "I'll submit to your great-grandfather!"
As he spoke, Feng Qi tensed his body again.
"Submit, or die!" the majestic voice boomed once more.
Knowing you, this isn't a choice; it's a death sentence, the Narrator quipped.
"Stop yapping! Is there any way to break free?"
There is one way, but I'm not sure if I should tell you.
"Spit it out! I can't hold on much longer!" Feng Qi strained, veins bulging on his forehead.
Why not just submit? Submitting would definitely get you out of this.
Feng Qi: ...
He felt an overwhelming urge to strangle the Narrator right then and there.
The pressure from the golden coffin intensified. Even his robust Blood Source Form couldn't withstand the external force; he could feel his bones nearing their breaking point.
Just as Feng Qi thought he was about to die before seeing Little Black again, a change occurred outside.
The Goat-Headed Demons, still battling the humanoid monster horde, suddenly turned toward the golden coffin, as if sensing Feng Qi's imminent demise.
A familiar incantation rose from their ranks.
Gradually, more and more Goat-Headed Demons began chanting the spell, their ghostly green flames surging higher.
As they chanted, their bodies began to dissolve, transforming into pure qi blood that floated into the air.
The coalescing qi blood formed a vast sea of crimson energy.
Inside the golden coffin, Feng Qi could already hear the sickening crack of his bones breaking.
The qi blood within his body continued to thin, making it impossible to maintain his Blood Source Form.
Suddenly, the Narrator's voice echoed in his mind:
Oh, look! The Goat-Headed Demons are about to collectively sacrifice themselves for you.
"Sacrifice themselves?" Feng Qi blurted out, startled by the Narrator's words.
Then, he suddenly understood what the Narrator meant.
During his battle against Stone Mountain, who had granted him the "Purple Soul" ability, the Goat-Headed Demons fighting alongside him had sacrificed themselves to grant him terrifying, unparalleled power when he was on the brink of defeat.
"I'm saved!" Feng Qi exclaimed excitedly.
Tell the Goat-Headed Demons I said: "MMP, you're welcome."
TL/N: "mā mài pī" (妈卖批) — a vulgar insult roughly equivalent to "f** your mother"* or "what the hell / are you kidding me?"
Outside, massive amounts of qi blood began converging on the gold coffin suppressing Feng Qi, seeping through the cracks in its golden surface.
The familiar searing heat surged through his body, and Feng Qi immediately felt his body transforming.
Last time, a dozen Goat-Headed Demons had sacrificed themselves.
Having slaughtered their way to the Star City Shelter, there were now at least several hundred Goat-Headed Demons outside.
He suddenly felt a surge of anticipation, wondering how much stronger he would become under the infusion of sacrificial power.
The sacrificial energy coalesced within him, spreading throughout his body.
A pair of demonic horns pierced through his skin, rising from his forehead, while the dark green flames enveloping him erupted into a raging inferno.
As the sacrificial power continued to flood into him, his body swelled, gradually forcing open the gold coffin's restraints.
Under the terrified gazes of Little Cripple and the other domain creatures, Feng Qi's body rapidly grew.
8 meters, 15 meters, 20 meters...
The dark green flames swirling around him branded swirling, ancient mystical symbols onto his skin, and a pair of pitch-black bone wings materialized behind him.
At that moment, a phantom image of the Dark God appeared above his head.
This phantom deity bore six gaping holes: one in its skull, four in its limbs, and one at its core.
The central hole had already been filled with sacrificial energy, which solidified into a dark green gemstone that radiated a brilliant light.
The agonizing pain from his rapid transformation forced Feng Qi to clench his teeth, feeling a surging power rising within him.
Countless tendrils of black mist erupted from his body, coalescing into swirling black clouds that enveloped him.
By now, Feng Qi's body had grown to over 40 meters tall.
Standing there like a demonic entity risen from hell, he radiated an aura of pure malevolence.
Below, Little Cripple and the other domain creatures watched in horror, clearly clueless about what was happening.
The excruciating pain of his rapid growth forced Feng Qi to unleash a primal roar.
The earth trembled as if struck by thunder.
The black mist swirling around him intensified, its terrifying life force pressure causing many domain creatures below to tremble uncontrollably.
In the distant sky, a Sky Giant Beast that had been rapidly approaching abruptly flapped its wings and turned back at the sound of the roar.
I hereby declare the Goat-Headed Demon the ultimate sacrificial offering in the Dream Realm!
