Chapter Forty-Three: One Against Five—The Heavenly Demon Quells the World and Annihilates the Hordes (Part One)

Beep! Beep! Beep!

Triggered by Yi Beidou's dharma-destroying intent, a faint electronic alarm sound echoed within the young man's mind—it was the micro-chip implanted in his brain sounding a frantic warning.

The chips implanted in the brains of the "super soldiers" represented the Pioneer Group's most advanced technology. They were not only used to control the life and death of these super soldiers but also possessed powerful auxiliary functions.

Under normal circumstances, the chip could suppress the emotions of the super soldiers, helping them dampen the various impacts caused by their overly powerful physical bodies.

When combat arrived, upon encountering excessively intense mental stimulation, the micro-currents released by the chip would stimulate the brain, drastically enhancing the super soldiers' mental endurance in a short period.

It could be said that this chip was designed entirely to target the weaknesses of super soldiers. Even when facing masters who had achieved sanctification in the flesh, it could reduce the mental impact to a minimum, allowing the super soldiers to maintain a high level of mobility.

Under such circumstances, two to three super soldiers joining forces entirely possessed the possibility of battling and killing a sanctified master.

However, the chip's endurance also had its limits.

Now, Yi Beidou's dharma-destroying killing intent had surpassed the chip's endurance limit, causing it to emit an overloaded wail!

Such powerful mental intent could usually only be accumulated by old monsters who had entered the realm of sanctification for many years.

And this was merely someone who had just stepped into the realm of sanctification?!

Yet, the young man soon lost the ability to continue thinking.

The surging killing intent broke through his psychological defense line. In a trance, a palm pierced through the air and struck squarely upon his chest.

Thud!!

The collision of flesh and blood produced a sound as if a bronze and iron statue had been struck. The young man's body flew backward like a cannonball for more than ten meters, slamming heavily into the wall of the banquet hall.

Boom!!

The wall shook violently, and the luxurious crystal chandelier on the dome swayed intensely, emitting crisp, shattering sounds.

The young man sent flying by Yi Beidou smashed a deep indentation into the hard wall, with cracks spreading across it like a spiderweb.

Half of the young man's body was embedded in the wall, his chest sunken, and blood gushed from his mouth and nose like a fountain, leaving him hanging between life and death.

This... this is still human strength?!

The celebrities of Yunhai Province present widened their eyes, trembling all over. Knowledgeable as they were, when had they ever witnessed such a figure?

The power of a single palm was practically comparable to a cannonball. Had they not retreated far enough, none of them along the trajectory of the flying young man would have survived.

A single move left a super soldier with a sanctified physical body hanging between life and death?!

Yang Tianhe took a deep breath. That young man was indeed someone who had truly achieved sanctification in the flesh, and he was terrifyingly powerful. When on earth did such a figure appear in the country?!

Shen Song and the other three approaching assailants felt their eyes split with rage at this sight. Never had they imagined that their companion would not even withstand a single move.

This person's strength far exceeded the investigation report provided by headquarters!!

Most importantly, the opponent had taken the initiative to seek them out, catching them completely off guard. According to the original plan, they should have prepared more comprehensive weapons and equipment before launching the attack.

However, they now had no way out and could only fight to the death.

This person possessed the ability to lock onto souls from afar; even if they fled, they would be tracked down purely by instinct. By then, they would likely have to face not only this person but also the Donghai military.

There were still four of them left; there was still a possibility of defeating and capturing the opponent.

Boom!!

Floor tiles shattered as Shen Song and the other three struck simultaneously.

Combining their forces from four directions, there were no blind spots, leaving Yi Beidou no room to dodge at all.

Furthermore, even with the true intent of a master sanctified in the flesh, it was impossible to simultaneously suppress and deter all four of them.

Two fists are no match for four hands!

As long as the numbers were sufficient, a master sanctified in the flesh could be exhausted to death by an army, let alone when they were already super soldiers who had transcended mortals!

Facing the combined attack of the four, Yi Beidou had no intention of dodging. He slightly bent his knees and pushed his palms forward like a plow sweeping through a field, striking Shen Song and another horse-faced man who were attacking from the front, completely leaving his back open to the two behind him.

*The demonic body questions the sky, where does the great dao lie?*

This time, Yi Beidou was not using the Dharma-Destroying Killing Tribulation, but the Heavenly Demon Asking the Dao!

Although it lacked the blazing killing intent of the Dharma-Destroying Killing Tribulation, it possessed a vast mental intent as towering as the Jianmu tree.

In the eyes of the four, Yi Beidou's body seemed to expand infinitely, striving to match the heavens, manifesting a colossal dharma body that was unshakeable.

Boom!!

Shen Song and his companion directly ahead bore the brunt of the impact. Colliding with Yi Beidou's palms, they felt a monstrous, irresistible force surging violently forward.

Tap, tap, tap!

The two figures retreated more than ten steps in a flash, feeling their entire arms go numb and their internal organs vibrate. A sweet taste rose in their throats as rebellious blood rushed up.

Even so, their combined attack had ultimately achieved its effect; with the opponent's back unguarded, it would surely take the full brunt of the strike.

Thud! Thud!

Two palms slammed into Yi Beidou's back, producing a terrifying explosion and vibration. The ordinary sportswear on Yi Beidou's body was directly blasted into countless fragments by this terrifying force, revealing his muscular, iron-like torso.

Boom!!

The next moment, the ground beneath Yi Beidou's feet shook violently as if struck by a giant force, sinking downward. Yet he himself did not budge even half a step under the attack of the two super soldiers.

What?!

The pupils of the two super soldiers contracted, their minds shaken.

At that moment, they felt as though they were not striking flesh and blood, but a giant tree level with the heavens, all attacks being channeled into the earth by its dense root system and dissolved into nothingness.

*Heavenly Demon Asking the Dao*—this technique was originally derived from the Green Wood mental intent, blending its skills. The demonic body was like the towering Jianmu, combining offense and defense into one.

He used his mental intent to deter his opponents, weakening the intensity of their attacks, and then used the Green Wood force-transforming technique to bear the impact, taking the rear attacks of the two super soldiers purely with his physical body.

The cost was a piece of sportswear.

Thud!

Yi Beidou suddenly exerted force, stamping his foot and causing his body to vibrate, instantly forcing the two super soldiers back two steps.

Taking this opportunity, Yi Beidou whirled around and pushed his palms forward once again.

Boom!!

The killing intent was majestic; the Heavenly Demon destroys the law.

The two super soldiers' must-kill strike had been taken head-on by Yi Beidou's back, leaving their minds already shaken. They felt the person before them was as tall as a giant mountain, unshakeable and unbeatable. Now, stimulated by such intense killing intent, how could they possibly guard their minds?

Yi Beidou flicked his palms, bypassing their blocking arms, and pressed them squarely against their chests.

Puff!!

The two instantly spewed out bloody mists, their bodies tumbling like tattered sacks and crashing into the crowd nearby, sparking piercing screams.

Fortunately, the friction of the ground had slowed them down; otherwise, someone in the crowd would surely have lost their life from the impact.

Yi Beidou turned his body around, his vital energy locking back onto Shen Song and the other horse-faced man who had just stabilized their momentum.

With a calm gaze and his upper body revealing explosive muscle lines, he brought a strong sense of suffocation to the two.

What they faced was not a newly minted god who had only recently achieved physical sanctification, but a mountain that seemed insurmountable.
