Lu Mingfei, become the King of Elden!

Chapter 110 Accompanied by Loneliness, Solitude, and Madness
Six massive stone pillars support the dark dome of the tomb chamber, covered with damp moss and the marks of time, silently guarding this final resting place of the hero.

The gravedigger stood in the shadows, like a silent stone statue.

Beneath his feet lay layers upon layers of withered bones, cracked and white, piled up like a mountain. Behind him, the roots of the golden tree, once a symbol of divine blessing, twisted and coiled like giant, twisted veins, piercing deep into the stone wall.

The tree roots were already covered with "fruit"—dried, decaying, and recently deceased remains. The limbs of the dead were enveloped, entangled, and suspended from the tree roots by an invisible force.

He was the last guardian of this dead zone, his thick, stiff cloak highlighting his identity as a tomb keeper.

A man who once made his living through battle and won applause in blood and fire was banished from the arena and ended up as the guardian of Guishu, guarding this deserted hall.

Day after day, year after year, I am surrounded by the remains of the dead.

I'm tired of it.

He craved battle, craved a true opponent, craved... a worthwhile death that could end this eternal desolation.

...

Click click
An unusual sound broke the silence.

It wasn't the sound of a little devil wielding a hand axe, nor the whistling of crossbow bolts from the tomb passage.

It was the crisp sound of heavy iron boots stepping on bones.

Step by step.

The gladiator's head, hidden beneath the hood, slowly turned, the bones emitting a series of soft creaking sounds. Through the dimly lit hall, the figure emerging from the tomb passage came into view.

The newcomer was clad in a magnificent silver armor covered with dragon and thorn patterns, and the dragon-shaped statue above his head indicated his identity.

He gripped a heavy, ancient sword tightly in each hand, the tips of the swords hanging low, scraping against the gravel and bones on the ground with a chilling scraping sound, as if announcing his arrival.

The knight raised his head.

boom--!
In an instant, eerie blue flames suddenly ignited among the torches surrounding the tomb! The strange blue flames flickered wildly, like ghostly stars emerging from the abyss, suddenly illuminating the entire main tomb chamber in a ghastly blue light! Flickering shadows danced on the stone pillars, withered bones, and hanging corpses, as if in a realm of ghosts and demons.

Beneath the knight's visor, a pair of molten gold eyes suddenly lit up! Like flames in the darkness, they met the warrior's gaze directly and without hesitation, imbued with ancient dragon might.

silence.

Still silent.

The next moment, the gravedigger's body emitted a cracking sound from its bones.

Click, click.

He didn't roar or howl; he simply did something simple, yet it was like the opening ceremony of a duel.

His large, powerful hands suddenly gripped the edge of the stiff cloak, and with an exaggerated swing of his arm, the sound of tearing fabric rang out.

shhh-

The cloak was roughly and without hesitation thrown off, as if a heavy shackle had been removed, revealing a body of bronze muscles, honed to perfection and cast like steel! Countless hideous scars crisscrossed those muscles, like the drums of war at this moment!
He bent down, his movements steady and powerful, and picked up two huge, heavy, rusty, and dark red iron warhammers from the pile of bones at his feet.

He was no longer a lonely guardian of the tomb. At this moment, he seemed to have returned to the center of that bustling arena, where the ground was no longer littered with white bones, but with blood-stained stone bricks, and the roar of cheers filled his ears!
...

Lu Mingfei's golden eyes were fixed on the figure of the Gravekeeper Warrior, his brain racing in a flash, silently analyzing the situation before the battle. Humanoid, tall, unarmored.

Abandoning defense implies extreme aggression. This makes them a power-type opponent skilled in offense.

The two giant hammers in his hands were incredibly heavy, capable of crushing enemies along with their armor, and could not be touched easily.

The central chain proved that he could swing the hammer and exert mid-range pressure, and even if the distance was increased, vigilance could not be relaxed.

Tsk.

Not easy to deal with.
He could clearly feel the pure power emanating from the other person, a power forged through countless battles and tempered by fire—the ultimate violence stemming from human flesh and will!
The tomb guardian warrior moved.

He stomped his foot and transformed into a black hurricane, instantly bridging the considerable distance between them!
The two enormous iron hammers, with the force to split mountains and shatter rocks, came crashing down on Lu Mingfei from the left and right, like two toppled mountains!
Golden flames blazed in Lu Mingfei's pupils as he immediately crossed his Storm Greatswords in both hands to parry!
clang--! ! !
A deafening clang of metal clashing echoed through the tomb, and a violent shockwave swept out, instantly clearing away the pile of bones on the ground and revealing the dark stone slabs beneath.

Lu Mingfei's Dragon Feast power was fully ignited, and fine black scales emerged from his skin, gradually climbing up his face. A look of horror flashed in his molten gold eyes.

Such incredible strength! It's practically the limit of physical strength that the human body can achieve!

pity.

Fighter, what stands before you is not human, but a hybrid warrior who has long surpassed human limits and walks the path of dragons.

The storm power surrounding Lu Mingfei suddenly exploded!

Storm Blades!

A violent, grayish-white current of energy swirled around the sword, not only withstanding the immense force of the twin hammers but also pushing them back with a ferocious momentum.

The gravedigger's usually calm and collected eyes finally flickered violently at the moment the storm erupted.

boom! !

The fighter's heavy body was forced to slide backward a step by the force, his feet plowing two white marks on the stone floor!

Before the fighter could regain his footing, Lu Mingfei's twin swords swooped down like eagles, moving with incredible speed!
The twin swords seemed to lose weight under the storm's influence. The left sword slashed upwards at the warrior's hammer-wielding right hand, while the right sword drew a fierce arc, aiming for the warrior's open and unprotected chest!

Sizzle! Clang!
Two distinctly different crisp sounds rang out almost simultaneously!
The Gravekeeper displayed an astonishing reaction that belied his enormous size, and amidst sparks, the heavy greatsword was held firmly in place!

But he was ultimately unable to completely block all the attacks. The tip of the sword grazed his forearm, drawing blood and flesh, and leaving a deep, bone-revealing wound!

"Humph"

A muffled cry of pain rang out, and for the first time, the fighter uttered the sound of a living being. The sound was hoarse and strained, like rusted gears turning anew.

The excruciating pain did not deter the fighter; instead, it ignited his long-dormant fighting spirit. In his dark eyes, it seemed as if a dormant volcano was erupting!

Roar--! ! !
A roar that was completely inhuman and filled with rage exploded from the depths of his throat!

Boasting and roaring.

A roar that sounds like a boast is the most proficient combat skill of arena fighters, which can significantly enhance their attack and defense capabilities.

The roar echoed through the underground tomb.
