Oh My God! Earthlings are Insane! - Chapter 617
Chapter 617: Enraged Fist!
The powerful Vortex could not even find a chance to regret its actions when it faced Meng Chao’s raging fists.
It was beaten repeatedly, then forced out of the Broken Claw Dragon’s shattered body.
When A’Ji and Lu Siya saw trails of black adhesive liquid letting out hissing screeches while fleeing from the Broken Claw Dragon’s body so that it could distance itself from Meng Chao’s attacks, they were dumbfounded.
“That’s… a little too insane, don’t you think?” A’Ji stuttered. “Wh-What sort of monster did you guys create?”
“I-I don’t know.” Lu Siya gulped. She still could not believe her own eyes. “Is it really Divine Nine Dragon Seals? When did this guy learn it behind my back?”
The Vortex could not fight back at all in the face of Meng Chao’s Divine Nine Dragon Seals.
Most of the black adhesive liquid that left the Broken Claw Dragon’s body looked like sticky, rotten mud that had been burned by high heat, and it could not gather together into its complete form.
But here was the problem.
After it was beaten into its true form, its malleability and stretchability reached their max.
When Meng Chao threw a punch at it, he was able to make a huge hole in its body, but the power of Divine Nine Dragon Seals was evenly distributed through its entire body by the ripples that kept on spreading out. Then, it was transferred to the ground, because it was stuck to the floor.
As a result, 90% of the damage was sent into the stones.
The Vortex might have been in a pathetic shape, but it was still struggling and hissing.
As time passed, the dragon meridians and the radial-shaped spirit tattoos formed along them became chaotic.
A’Ji and Lu Siya knew very clearly that it was too much for Meng Chao to use Divine Nine Dragon Seals. After all, he was just a four-star superhuman.
He was just like A’Ji. When he used Celestial Tyrant’s Star Shattering Slash, his right arm was torn to shreds. Meng Chao’s body also had to be withstanding a rampaging backlash from his dragon meridians. With every second that passed, countless blood vessels, nerves, spirit meridians, and muscle fibers would be torn viciously.
It was impossible for him to use Divine Nine Dragon Seals endlessly.
And once he finished using this skill, he would face an incredibly long cool down that would render him really weak.
If he could not kill the Vortex right then, this creature with its terrifying regenerative abilities would digest all the Hell’s Blood it had just drank and would return to its monstrous form.
Earlier, A’Ji and Lu Siya had managed to gain an upper hand, but the Vortex’s powerful regenerative abilities had worn them out.
“What should we do?”
Both of them were really anxious.
“He can’t keep fighting like this. Even if he has an upper hand for now, he won’t be able to kill it!” A’Ji gritted his teeth. “This monster is afraid of fire, so we must use flames that are thousands of degrees Celsius hot to kill it!”
“But we’re underground. Where are we supposed to find fire?” Lu Siya asked while covering the wound on her chest.
Meng Chao narrowed his eyes.
He naturally heard the two people’s conversation.
But even if they did not remind him of the stakes, no one knew better than him just how dangerous the current situation was for him.
The Vortex was truly the most terrifying enemy he had ever come across after it fused with the Broken Claw Dragon and got its hands on Hell’s Blood.
With Divine Nine Dragon Seals, he obtained an overwhelming advantage, but this would only last for a moment. He could not swiftly and smoothly reduce this creature to ashes!
‘Fire! I need fire! Raging, violent fire!’
As Divine Nine Dragon Seals provided him with more power, the speed of Meng Chao’s punches became faster. The super fast friction between his fists and the air created thousands of sparks. Besides, with the spirit flames aiding him, the surface area of his fists was already burning as hotly as steel that was at thousands of degrees Celsius.
They shone with a dark red hue, and hot steam came out from them. Whenever he landed a punch on the Vortex, he left a sizzling hole.
But this was not enough. This was far from enough!
Meng Chao had his vitality magnetic field spread through the entire material storage in search of anything that could combust or even explode.
Fortunately for him, he soon found it.
The small storage had everything since it contained the most valuable monster materials and high-grade crystals that Saber Jin Wanhao had spent his entire life gathering.
Fire-type materials and crystals were the most commonly found materials in the Other World.
For example, after Meng Chao returned to the past, the first superbeast he killed was a fire-type superbeast known as Ghost-eyed Golden Winged Flame Beetle. It had really sticky fuel and could instantly create a hell that burned at more than one thousand degrees Celsius.
The materials that Saber Jin Wanhao gathered were at least ten times better in terms of quality compared to the fuel of Ghost-eyed Golden Winged Flame Beetles.
Meng Chao instantly fixed his attention on a monster material and a crystal.
Flame Chaos’ acid and Sulphuric Fire Crystal!
The former was an acid that came from the digestive system of a Grade Six Hell Beast. Its combustion point was really low, but it produced a high temperature. It was also a very active substance, since it would burn the moment it came into contact with air. It was the greatest weapon of Flame Chaoses who spat fire to burn everything in their way and rule over Monster Mountain Range.
The crystal came from an area south of Dragon City, which was full of active volcanoes, and could only be found in the most violent of volcanoes. Even a crystal the size of half a grain could have the impact of a napalm bomb.
Originally, these highly dangerous materials were sealed in mithril-based stabilizing fluid and placed in storage boxes made of super alloy.
But after Meng Chao, Lu Siya, and A’Ji fought against the Vortex, the entire material storage was hit by astonishing waves of spirit energy. The storage boxes were all out of shape and full of cracks.
The unstable spirit energy inside them gushed out in the form of red spirit gas, which revealed their nature to Meng Chao, who was an ace harvester.
He kicked the Vortex away, stretched his arms, spread his fingers wide, and used the circulation of his magnetic field to bring the metal boxes with the Flame Chaos’ acid and Sulphuric Fire Crystal.
Crack! Crack!
Two sturdy storage boxes were crushed to a pulp.
The mithril-based stabilizing fluid inside poured out, and he spread it evenly on his arms, so they became shiny, as if he was wearing an armor made of platinum.
Then, the Flame Chaos’ acid flowed all over the platinum armor.
Meng Chao swung his arms. The sparks created by the high speed friction between his fists and the air instantly ignited the Flame Chaos’ acid. It turned his arms into burning fire pillars—No, they were rampaging fire dragons spitting out lava!
As the flames shone on it, the Vortex let out a screech of despair.
Meng Chao grinned and swung the two fire dragons while pouncing on it with absolute malice.
This time, with just one punch, he managed to make the Vortex so terrified that it looked like its soul had left its body.
Not only was a terrifying hole left behind on the black adhesive liquid, a large amount of Flame Chaos’ acid was rammed into the hole, making it burn continuously.
In an instant, the Vortex was reduced to a huge, burning fireball.
The outermost layer of black adhesive liquid was burnt to a brittle shell. It lost its fluidity as well as regenerative and transformative abilities.
At first glance, it could no longer squirm, dodge, or regenerate.
“Careful, only its outermost layer was burnt!” A’Ji had fought with the Vortex the longest, so he knew just how terrifying this creature was the best. “There is still a lot of liquid under that burnt shell that still retains cellular activity!”
“I know!”
Meng Chao’s eyes shone with a bright, fierce light.
He clenched the Sulphuric Fire Crystal in his right hand so tightly that it started cracking, and it looked like he was holding a volcano that was about to erupt.
The continuous, explosive punches had used up all of his contribution points and spirit energy, so he could no longer maintain Divine Nine Dragon Seals, not when it made his body go into overdrive.
But that was fine.
With the last bit of spirit energy he had left, he could still use his favorite move—Demon Subduing Pole.
Of course, he would be using the supreme ultra hyper mega super upgraded version—Flaming Demon Subduing Pole!
“Die, monster!”
Meng Chao crushed the Sulphuric Fire Crystal in his palm.
His entire right arm turned into a small, blinding sun.
It was comparable to the small sun A’Ji had created when he used the Celestial Tyrant’s Star Shattering Slash.
Meng Chao’s right arm swelled up several times its original size and turned into a demon subduing pole that stood tall in the world. There was a fierce dragon that flew around it.
The demon subduing pole pushed the small sun forward and rammed it into the Vortex.
Boom!
When the burning demon subduing pole stabbed into the burnt shell, the Vortex exploded.
A large amount of black, blood-red, and nearly transparent adhesive liquid that was mixed with the Broken Claw Dragon’s flesh and bones spilled out like raindrops.
Most of the adhesive liquid, blood, flesh, and shattered bones was burnt to ashes by the flames that gushed out of Meng Chao’s right arm.
This time, it was A’Ji and Lu Siya’s turn to find their vision going white and red. Aside from seeing that the waves of raging flames were each taller than the last, they saw nothing else.
“Th-That flame attack is… scary.”
“What sort of monster is that brat?! He’s practically a fire demon who crawled out of hell!”
“D-Did he kill the monster?”
When the flames faded away, both of them still had their hearts pounding in fear, and they gasped in amazement.
Then, they looked at Meng Chao. He was on one knee and so exhausted that he was swaying.
Meanwhile, scattered evenly in front of him was a layer of really fine black sand. Clearly, this was the sign that the Vortex had been burnt to a crisp and had lost all cellular activity.
“I-Is it finally over?”
Lu Siya and A’Ji looked at each other before they breathed long sighs of relief.
They felt that the past hour was as long as a year in the depths of hell.
“No! It’s not completely dead yet!”
Only Meng Chao could tell based on the feeling that he did not land a solid hit that the Vortex was not blasted by his Flaming Demon Subduing Pole. Instead, it had personally exploded the Broken Claw Dragon’s flesh along with 90% of its own liquid.
This was similar to a gecko breaking off its tail to escape and how sea cucumbers coughed up their organs to confuse their enemies when they ran into danger. It tossed the Broken Claw Dragon’s carcass and 90% of its original body at Meng Chao as sacrifices for Flaming Demon Subduing Pole to protect the last 10% of liquid.
‘No… It’s not trying to escape. It wants to—’
Meng Chao’s pupils shrank into dots.
Under the cover of the black ashes was a thin layer of nearly transparent liquid that stuck close to the floor. Suddenly, it curled with a screech and launched itself at Meng Chao!
