Apocalypse: Master of Soul Beasts

Ray—Punishment of Heaven!

With the Power of Heaven and Earth in his hands, Tang Haofei, at this moment, executed Heaven’s punishment!

The power within the Thunder spread rapidly, roaring across the ground. The entire battlefield looked as if it had been bombarded by countless missiles. However, for a Level 7 Breakthrough Achiever, such power was merely a tickle.

The ground continued to tremble until, at a certain moment, a figure appeared within Tang Haofei and Wen Yu’s perception.

Finally seeing his opponent, Tang Haofei slowly ceased his offensive. Strictly speaking, the previous attack was merely a greeting.

A surprise attack? Not likely… That was Tang Haofei, after all!

As a Challenger, Tang Haofei always had an inexplicable obsession with one-on-one duels. Such a battle, in the eyes of those Wen Yu considered fools or melodramatic youths, seemed more like a sacred ceremony! Unfortunately, Tang Haofei, who held the title of Challenger, seemed to be exactly that type of person.

After the thunderous bombardment, smoke filled the battlefield. As Tang Haofei chose not to press the attack, the fat man also remained strangely motionless. Only when the smoke completely dissipated did the fat man’s figure clearly appear before Wen Yu and Tang Haofei.

Seeing the fat man’s current state, Wen Yu squinted. He immediately transformed into a Black Light and fled into the distance. Simultaneously, a Spiritual Fluctuation quickly reached Tang Haofei’s ears.

”Be careful! That guy’s fighting to the death!”

”Yes, he is indeed...” Tang Haofei murmured, gazing at the ”fat man” before him.

No, he could no longer be called a fat man. The fat man’s original physique, nearly 150 kilograms, had completely vanished. In its place stood a lean, tall figure clad in golden armor. Every muscle on his body rippled with definition, and an undisguised coldness was etched onto his chiseled, handsome face.

Tang Haofei mused, ”Every overweight person is a diamond in the rough... That saying isn’t wrong...” He even had the leisure to critique the transformed man’s appearance. Admittedly, his current look was a significant improvement and far surpassed Tang Haofei’s own.

However, the man standing below paid no heed to Tang Haofei’s jests. He simply turned his head slowly, surveying his surroundings.

After a moment, the man spoke. ”They’re all dead?”

His tone was flat, as if he were asking, ”Did you have dinner tonight?”

”All dead!” Tang Haofei’s reply was equally nonchalant, like responding, ”Yes, I’ve eaten!”

This simple exchange was enough to convey the entire situation to the man.

The man slowly lowered his head. Then, his voice low and trembling slightly, he asked, ”So...did they die...with dignity?”

Tang Haofei knew Wen Yu possessed the Soul Battlefield. He also knew that the Soul Battlefield could severely suppress the resurrected dead souls from the Universe of Immortals and Heroes! Considering the speed with which Wen Yu had finished the battle, Tang Haofei understood at a glance how Wen Yu had crushed these natives of the Universe of Immortals and Heroes.

Therefore, after a moment’s thought, Tang Haofei gently shook his head. ”None whatsoever.”

A completely one-sided battle... Slaughtered like ants... What dignity could there be in that?

Hearing Tang Haofei’s answer, the man surprisingly calmed down. He slowly raised his head; now, even his eyes gleamed with golden light.

”May I ask something of you?”

”Speak!”

”I desire a death...with some dignity...”

His will to fight began to coalesce. The man’s aura surged, then slowly compressed—gathering, intensifying. Like a super-bomb, one could only imagine the formidable power that would erupt when this aura fully burst forth! The man had no intention of surrendering. Perhaps all he wanted was a ”fair” fight.

Witnessing this, a wide grin spread across Tang Haofei’s face, and he nodded emphatically. ”I, Tang Haofei, Earth Human Race Sequence Number 1! I will grant your wish!”

With that said, his wings forged from Thunder beat lightly, and under their power, Tang Haofei’s body slowly ascended.

Perhaps the man simply didn’t want to die without dignity or meaning. Or perhaps, in this battle he was doomed to lose, he aimed to take Tang Haofei down with him—avenging his squad and himself... Who could say...

But, coincidentally, Tang Haofei was susceptible to this kind of plea—perhaps a fair fight was what he desired as well.

For this, Wen Yu could only firmly label Tang Haofei an ”idiot.”

Like a great bird piercing the heavens, Tang Haofei ascended higher and higher, only stopping when he reached a specific altitude. Gazing at the golden figure below, Tang Haofei took a deep breath and raised his right hand.

Boundless Thunder converged once more, endless lightning condensing onto Tang Haofei’s right hand. Then, this mass of dazzling lightning slowly elongated and reshaped itself, like modeling clay, into a three-meter-long Thunder-forged Long Spear!

The next second, Tang Haofei inhaled sharply! His chest visibly expanded as he drew a massive amount of air into his lungs, which then converted into sustenance for his movements. The wings on his back beat furiously, and in an instant, Tang Haofei vanished from his position!

”DIE!!!”

A savage roar echoed between heaven and earth. Then, a ray of Deep Blue light shot towards the man’s position. Harnessing the powerful diving speed to grant the Thunderous Lance terrifying acceleration, coupled with a secondary exertion from his right arm, Tang Haofei’s strike made Wen Yu’s heart pound even from a distance. On Earth, no creature could withstand this attack from Tang Haofei! Even he himself would likely lose half his life under this display of the Power of Heaven and Earth!

However, Tang Haofei’s assault was not yet over. The Thunder instantly became a propulsive force, flinging Tang Haofei backward. In the blink of an eye, he returned to his original position in the sky, the light on his right hand blazing once more.

SWOOSH!

Tang Haofei’s figure vanished. Then, another flash of Deep Blue light shot towards the man. Then, again... and again...

The blue wings of light vibrated continuously in the sky. Tang Haofei’s repeated movements formed a straight blue trajectory—the afterimages left by his constant flight along this ”launch rail”!

The Thunderous Lances raining down from the sky were not Tang Haofei’s Deadly Weapon... This was merely his regular attack—yes, a regular attack that could be repeated countless times...

Unlike the Thunder attack during their earlier ”greeting,” the Thunder-forged Long Spears now possessed not only a more condensed energy form but also greater speed. The combination of these factors naturally resulted in a formidable increase in power.

However, even as the rain of Thunderous Lances was about to crash down upon him, the man remained motionless...

Until the first Thunder-forged Long Spear, accompanied by fierce wind pressure and the SIZZLING of arcing lightning, struck directly at his face!

CLANG—!

The prolonged, piercing sound made Wen Yu, watching from afar, frown deeply. He then retreated even further. These two, by my normal standards (excluding the Soul Battlefield), are unquestionably top-tier monsters!

CLANG—!

The first Thunder-forged Long Spear halted abruptly about three centimeters from the man’s face. The wind pressure from the spearhead slammed into the Golden Battle Armor. Despite the harsh sound, there was virtually no damage. And there, half a meter in front of the man, a large, golden-glowing hand had tightly gripped the spear. The splintering sparks of lightning on the Thunder-forged Long Spear seemed pathetic and laughable against the Golden Battle Armor.

Tang Haofei’s charged strike had been caught single-handedly by the man, rendered completely ineffective!

Sensing the power emanating from the Thunder-forged Long Spear, a cruel sneer slowly spread across the man’s lips.

”This level of power? You think you can kill me with this?”

”You’re nowhere near strong enough!!!”
