I became a god through frontier slaughter, and I crushed the academy's prodigies!

His voice echoed through the desolate, lifeless mass grave.

The monster was not affected by Xiao Ting's trash talk. It was not a living creature and had no emotional fluctuations.

Two black flames locked onto Xiao Ting on the boulder.

Whoosh!

The massive skeletal body suddenly left a trail of afterimages, and its fifteen-meter-long body displayed a terrifying explosive power completely disproportionate to its size.

The air was violently blasted apart by it, forming a layer of white sonic boom cloud.

The right claw, covered in sharp bone spurs, slammed down on Xiao Ting with a devastating force.

That attack was too fast.

Xiao Ting had no time to dodge, so he could only flex his arm muscles and hold the halberd horizontally above his head.

His blood and qi, now at the mid-stage of the seventh rank, burned like a furnace as he poured all his power into his arms.

clang--!

The deafening clang of metal against metal resounded through the sky.

The metal shaft of the halberd was bent into a dangerous arc.

An overwhelming force surged down the halberd, causing Xiao Ting's hands to split open at the base of his thumbs, and blood slid down the backs of his hands.

"Holy crap, that's some serious strength!"

Xiao Ting felt a surge of blood rushing to his chest and a sweet taste in his throat.

The solid boulder, several meters high, beneath his feet could not withstand the force transmitted through it.

With a loud crack, the boulder split from top to bottom and then collapsed.

Xiao Ting, along with countless pieces of rubble, flew out at an angle like a baseball hit by a bat.

He twisted his waist forcefully in mid-air, his feet slamming heavily onto the ground, carving two deep furrows, each a hundred meters long, into the scorched earth, before finally managing to dissipate the force and stop.

"But the fact that he could unleash an aura of the seventh rank or higher with just his physical strength means that he was an extremely terrifying being before he died."

"Plus the power of the void."

"I cannot recklessly squander my innate profound lightning!"

"This is really XXX!!!"

Xiao Ting wiped the dust off his chin and gasped for breath.

His mind raced as he analyzed the situation.

This thing is purely driven by that dark, void power.

No need to breathe, no pain, and possibly no vital organs.

Here, he cannot absorb the power of heaven and earth with lightning attributes from the outside to replenish his consumption; every bit he uses is a bit less.

This is practically wearing him down!

The monster struck hard, giving Xiao Ting no chance to catch his breath.

It used all four limbs to run wildly through the ruins.

Each step left a deep crater in the ground.

It opened its gaping maw, now nothing but bones, and from deep within its throat, the power of the void gathered.

A black sphere the size of a human head quickly took shape and then shot out like a cannonball, heading straight for Xiao Ting's face.

A black sphere of light streaked through the air, causing uneasy ripples in the space it passed through, as if it could even swallow up light.

Xiao Ting's eyes narrowed; he knew he couldn't take this head-on.

He slammed his toes on the ground and shifted his body to the left, moving more than ten meters.

The black orb grazed his shoulder and struck a huge piece of beast bone behind him.

Silently.

The ancient beast bone, so hard it had endured the ages without decaying, melted away the moment the black orb touched it, like snow under the scorching sun, creating a hole five meters in diameter.

The cut was as smooth as a mirror, with not a single trace of residue left.

Xiao Ting glanced back, his eyelids twitching wildly.

"That's true damage with armor penetration!"

We can't afford to be on the defensive anymore. If we retreat any further, we might just get vaporized by this thing.

"Just because I'm not showing my teeth doesn't mean I'm a husky!"

Xiao Ting clenched his back teeth.

Reluctantly, he mobilized a small amount of innate profound lightning stored within his body.

Deep purple lightning spread along his arms, instantly covering the entire halberd.

High-density arcs of electricity leaped through the void, crackling and popping. Even in this magic-suppressed area, the pure essence of lightning still exuded a violent, destructive aura.

Xiao Ting shattered the ground with his feet, transforming into a streak of purple lightning as he charged towards the skeletal beast.

"Take this basic attack from the mage!"

Xiao Ting leaped ten meters into the air, gripped the Thunder Halberd tightly with both hands, and used the acceleration of gravity during his descent to slash fiercely down at the monster's cervical vertebrae.

The lightning converged on the halberd's blade, forming a dazzling purple light.

Sensing the threat above, the bone beast abruptly raised its head, its massive, pale fangs meeting the descending halberd.

boom--

The purple lightning collided violently with the black void energy.

The terrifying shockwave spread outward in a visible ring, hurling away all the rubble and sand within a radius of hundreds of meters, creating a small sandstorm on the ground.

Purple arcs of electricity spread rapidly along the bone beast's fangs, drilling into the writhing void slime and emitting a piercing burning sound.

Thunder, being the most powerful and yang force in the universe, has a natural restraining effect on such yin and evil inanimate objects.

Under the bombardment of the Xuan Lei, the three-meter-long fang on the left side of the bone beast finally gave way and broke off at the root, crashing heavily to the ground.

The bone beast's massive body was also struck by this force, causing it to stagger, its front half suddenly lowering down and its forelimbs kneeling on the ground.

While you are sick, I will kill you.

Xiao Ting rolled in the air, landing on the bone beast's broad skull, and swung his battle halberd in a large circle.

"Cut it off for me!"

The halberd blade flashed with a sharp purple light, striking precisely at the joint of the bone beast's left forelimb.

Click!

The thick, grayish-white bone leg snapped off with a crack, completely separating from the massive body.

Black viscous liquid gushed out from the broken surface like a fountain.

Having landed a successful blow, Xiao Ting didn't linger. He used his legs to propel himself high above the bone beast's head, flying backward more than fifty meters.

He landed steadily, leaning on his battle halberd.

Although it consumed some of the lightning's essence, it was worth it to cripple this monster's leg.

"In this crappy dungeon that doesn't restore mana, every drop of my Innate Thunder is precious, and this damn dog doesn't even drop gold!"

The bone beast with a broken leg felt no pain.

It struggled on the ground for a few moments, then suddenly its three legs supported the massive 15-meter-long skeleton.

The black void fluid boiled at the break, attempting to reform a limb, but was sizzled by the remaining purple lightning strikes and ultimately solidified into a short, black bud.

The black flames in the bone beast's empty eye sockets flickered violently, clearly indicating that it was thoroughly enraged.

It suddenly opened its huge mouth, and three black orbs the size of human heads spewed out in a triangular shape, sealing off Xiao Ting's escape route.

Normally, Xiao Ting would definitely go all out and engage in a fierce battle.

but now……

Xiao Ting saved money wherever he could.

He didn't take the hit head-on. Instead, he slightly bent his knees, his blood and energy surging through his leg muscles. He slid through the gap between the two orbs of light like a swallow flying close to the ground.

Rumble!

The black rock behind them was hit by the ball of light, instantly dissolving into three deep pits, each seven or eight meters in diameter.

"Still using this tactic?"

As Xiao Ting rolled to dissipate the force, he roared ahead.

"While I was showing off my skills, you were still buried in the ground!"

"Let me show you what the best jungler in the Chinese server really is!"

As soon as Xiao Ting steadied himself, the bone beast pounced in front of him.

Although it was missing a leg, with the help of the power of the void, it was still so fast that it left afterimages.

With immense force, its remaining right forepaw tore through the air and slammed into Xiao Ting's skull.

Xiao Ting raised his halberd to parry.

A metallic clang rang out, and sparks flew everywhere.

An overwhelming sense of pressure traveled up the long pole and down to his arms.

The ground beneath Xiao Ting's feet shattered instantly, and his legs sank directly into the scorched mud, all the way up to his knees.

He gritted his teeth, not activating the Xuan Lei, relying solely on his mid-stage seventh-order physical body to withstand the attack.

"Get the hell out of my way!"

Xiao Ting's arms bulged with veins, and he suddenly lifted them upwards.

The halberd traced a crescent-shaped silver arc, deflecting the bone beast's massive claws.

Immediately afterwards, he pulled out his legs, exerted force with his waist, and thrust his halberd like a cannonball into the bone beast's abdominal bones.

clang!

The sharp halberd tip pierced the grayish-white ribs, leaving only a faint white mark.

On the contrary, the recoil from the halberd caused Xiao Ting's tiger's mouth to split open again.

What a hard turtle shell!

Xiao Ting used the momentum to jump backward, creating a distance of more than twenty meters.

In the confined ruins, a human and a beast confront each other.

Hundreds of meters away, the massive remains of a raptor floated silently like a mountain peak, watching the battle unfold.

Xiao Ting was panting heavily, sweat streaming down his face.

The situation is not optimistic.

The bone of this thing is harder than you can imagine; it's difficult to inflict a fatal wound with a simple physical attack.

If he didn't use the innate profound lightning, he would probably have to exhaust himself to grind down this bone beast.

But if we open up the use of Thunder, what's the next step?

Who knows how many of these monsters are still in this wretched place?

We can't delay any longer!

Xiao Ting gripped the halberd tightly, a resolute glint in his eyes.

"You've got guts, forcing me to spend money! Today I'll show you what it means to use your mana wisely!"

The skeletal beast roared, pressed its remaining right forepaw onto the ground, and its massive skeleton, like an out-of-control heavy armored vehicle, rumbled and crushed over it.

The air was violently compressed by it, forming rings of white air waves.

Instead of retreating, Xiao Ting advanced. He gripped the end of the halberd with both hands, no longer sparing the innate profound lightning within his body.

Deep purple lightning erupted from his palm, like a solidified liquid, instantly filling the entire weapon.

The blinding lightning illuminated the ruins for thousands of meters around, dispelling the long-standing darkness.

"One move decides the outcome!"

Xiao Ting ran wildly towards the charging bone beast.

Just as the two were about to collide, Xiao Ting suddenly tapped his toes on the ground, his body leaping up to a height of more than ten meters.

The bone beast reacted extremely quickly. The black flames in its eye sockets instantly rose, and with its mouth wide open, a ball of void light, twice the size of the previous one, shot out at Xiao Ting in mid-air.

"That's exactly what I've been waiting for!"

Xiao Ting was in mid-air and had no way to use his strength to dodge.

But he had no intention of hiding at all.

His mid-stage seventh-tier blood and energy erupted like a volcano, pouring into his arms. He raised his battle halberd high, and purple lightning condensed on the blade into a giant thunder battle axe thirty meters long.

"Smash it for me!"

Xiao Ting roared, swinging his Thunder Battle Axe down to meet the massive black ball of light.

boom--!

The blinding purple light and the pitch-black void power collided violently in mid-air.

The primordial lightning, extremely powerful and yang, displayed overwhelming destructive force the moment it touched the sphere of light in the void.

The purple arcs of electricity, like countless sharp scalpels, sliced ​​through the surface of the sphere of light, instantly penetrating its interior and detonating it.

A terrifying energy storm swept in all directions.

The rock layers on the ground were scraped off, and countless fragments of rock were swept into the sky, only to be burned to ashes by the lightning.

Xiao Ting passed through the aftershocks of the explosion, his body plummeting downwards at breakneck speed.

He gripped the halberd tightly with both hands, the tip of which still retained a wisp of the most violent source of lightning.

The bone beast's enormous head was directly below him.

Click!

The halberd pierced precisely into the cranial crevices between the bone beast's eyes.

At this moment, Xiao Ting unleashed all his power and lightning without reservation.

A deep purple bolt of lightning shot from the tip of the halberd into the bone beast's brain. That was the core of the void's power.

The lightning reacted violently with the black void slime, and a piercing shriek emanated from inside the skull, as if thousands of vengeful spirits were howling.

Boom!

With a deafening roar, the bone beast's indestructible skull exploded from the inside.

Grayish-white bone fragments shot out like shrapnel, hitting the wreckage dozens of meters away with muffled crackling sounds.

Without its core support, the bone beast's massive body instantly stiffened, and then collapsed with a thud, as if its backbone had been removed.

Broken bones were scattered all over the ground, and the black slime that had been attached to them lost its activity, quickly dried up, and turned into puddles of foul-smelling black water.

The battle is over.

Xiao Ting fell from a height of several meters, his legs gave way, and he landed hard on his bottom in the scorched earth.

He was breathing heavily, his chest heaving violently.

The halberd in his hand had already lost its luster.

"Damn it, I'm exhausted."

Xiao Ting raised his hand to wipe the sweat from his forehead and casually tossed the halberd to his feet.

"To kill a lowly monster, we used up so many of our trump cards. This is a huge loss!"

He complained and checked his internal condition.

His vital energy had been depleted by nearly 30%, and what pained him most was that one-tenth of his innate profound lightning, which was already irreplaceable, had evaporated in this battle. If the monsters he encountered next were all of this strength, he wouldn't even be able to leave this mass grave.

"You damn planner, come out and take your punishment!"

Xiao Ting raised his middle finger towards the empty sky.

"Who are they trying to disgust by releasing a monster that offers no reward whatsoever!"

Just as Xiao Ting was cursing and preparing to rummage through his spatial ring to find some resources to restore,

A sudden change occurred.

A faint red light suddenly rose from the pile of bone beast remains scattered on the ground.

This tiny red light, initially only the size of a firefly, was particularly glaring in the dim environment.

The red light did not coalesce into a new monster.

It was like a wisp of soft red smoke, slowly drifting out from the gaps in the bones, circling twice in mid-air, and as if it had a mind of its own, it flew straight towards Xiao Ting.

Xiao Ting tried to dodge, but the red light, though seemingly slow, was actually lightning fast, arriving in front of him almost instantly.

It burrowed into Xiao Ting's arm.
