Chapter 90: Becoming a Superhuman and Breaking Through!

Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom!

Meng Chao felt that his cerebral cortex was withstanding the force from a volcano eruption and carpet bombing .

The Ultimate Level Saber Technique that came from the future far exceeded what he could withstand at that moment .

His blood vessels and tendons started shrinking visibly as if they were about to be sucked dry by the One Hundred Saber Techniques .

Kindling was not invincible .

The stronger skill he received, the more energy he had to spend, and the more terrifying price he had to pay .

The wolf blood and wolf meat he had eaten were instantly absorbed by the cells that went out of control . But not only was it not enough, his hunger increased tenfold .

While the wolf king was intimidated by the magnetic field of Principal Sun’s life, Meng Chao groped around his body and found the gallbladder and heart of the Blade Shattering Python .

These two materials contained domineering power . Unless it was absolutely necessary, no one was to eat it directly .

But Meng Chao could not care about it now . He bared his white and ghastly teeth and tore apart the python’s heart and gallbladder in just a few bites . Then, he swallowed them .

He still did not feel satisfied . He took out eight high-efficiency medicines from the emergency health kit and injected them into his body . He couldn’t care less about side effects now . As long as something had a lot of energy, it was all that mattered to him .

Boom!

It felt as if a flame bomb had gone off in his organs .

The flames spread through his blood vessels and nerves .

Meng Chao knelt on the ground and seized his throat . He wanted to vomit, but all that came out were trickles of warmth .

Every blood vessel and nerve moved in him like a snake, and even the shackles on his genes gained their own lives . They started dancing around in the most primitive and savage manner .

The snakes surged into his mind at the same time to stir up the memory fragments from his previous life . He felt as if he had returned to the apocalypse and could hear millions of people shouting in anger and loathing before their deaths . He could sense sadness and rage that came from their souls .

He clutched his head tightly and released a nonhuman cry .

Dark golden blood flowed out from between his fingers .

The Bloody Moon Wolf King finally launched its charge .

It moved like a bloody blade that could mow down everything in its path . With a speed of over 100 km/h, it sent Meng Chao flying .

The blood vessels in Meng Chao’s eyes broke, and his eyeballs were dyed red .

He could sense no pain .

His nerves were already overloaded by the rampaging spirit energy .

His mind was filled with only lightning and flames .

As they intersected, a brand new door was slowly opened .

“This is…”

Many of the examinees behind Meng Chao had noticed that the wolf pack had returned . But just when they drew their sabers in preparation of a fight, they saw something unbelievable .

The Bloody Moon Wolf King charged over like a burning cannonball . Then, with just three jumps, he landed in front of Meng Chao and sent him flying .

It pounced after him with an open mouth to sink its fangs into the airborne Meng Chao’s shoulder .

The fangs were like daggers . They dug deep into Meng Chao’s shoulder and came out through his back .

But even though Meng Chao should have died on the spot, his body shone brightly, and his skin gave off a crystalline quality .

It looked as if he had turned into a magnet that attracted the spirit energy in the air, and it rushed into him nonstop .

The spirit energy that had no form or shape turned into sparkling particles that rushed into him to form violent spirit tattoos . They formed around his bleeding shoulder blade and went down to his trembling fingertips .

‘He broke through near death! He gained his supernatural abilities during battle!’

The examinees watched with all sorts of emotions in their hearts .

Supernatural abilities were never something that could be gained through labs or step-by-step procedures in the training field . Instead, it was a strength that humans understood when they faced despair but had to protect what they loved, which led to them crushing the limits set for them .

Half a century ago, when the martyrs had just transmigrated into the Other World, they knew nothing about spirit energy and cultivation,so they used this method to fight .

At that moment, Meng Chao entered the path of their predecessors .

Spirit energy gushed into his body madly, and it formed the spirit magnetic field rotation energy after resonating with the magnetic field formed by his life . It allowed Meng Chao to lift his saber and cut into the wolf’s head, even though his shoulder blade had been pierced .

The Ultimate Level One Hundred Saber Techniques could stir up a presence that made it seem as if the user could cut through everything, even if there was only half a foot from the saber to the target .

Crack!

The saber hit the wolf’s skull .

Unfortunately, even though Meng Chao’s saber technique had already reached the Ultimate Level, the Lightning Saber had long since become badly damaged and passed the limits of what metal could bear without breaking .

The blade sank half an inch into the wolf king’s skull before it broke in half . Only the hilt was left .

If the blade hadn’t broken, the slash would have split the wolf king’s skull .

The wolf king was in great pain . It twisted its body around, wanting to shake Meng Chao off its body .

But a moment earlier, it had taken the initiative to bite Meng Chao, and its fangs were stuck in Meng Chao’s bone .

Meng Chao growled and activated Reckless Bull Technique . He contracted the muscles around his shoulder blades until they were as tough as metal .

There was no way the wolf would be able to break free .

It could only jump around in a frenzy and charge into the forest with Meng Chao, which ended in it crushing multiple trees and rocks .

Meng Chao was covered in wounds, but he refused to let go of the wolf king’s head .

He wanted to reach out and grab the dagger in the wolf king’s neck, but the wolf king noticed it and slammed Meng Chao repeatedly against a sturdy rock .

Meng Chao’s consciousness started to fade when he felt his right arm swell and start burning .

It felt as if three waves of heat as hot as magma were surging, circulating, and spinning at high speed .

‘This is…’

Countless spirit tattoos that were the same as Principal Sun’s appeared on Meng Chao’s right arm .

Scattered sparks also rose slowly from the place where Principal Sun had touched . They surged into his right arm with a howl, and through his nerves, they reached his brain .

In an instant, Meng Chao felt as if he saw Principal Sung’s heroic gait when he was young and still in the army .

He saw how Principal Sun guided spirit energy into his body and how he used the spirit magnetic field rotation energy to execute the amazing Demon Subduing Pole .

He saw how Principal Sun brandished his “demon subduing poles” and reduced numerous monsters into pulp, thereby helping him earn the fearsome name of the Heavy Cannon .

As Meng Chao continued watching, the spirit energy magnetic field that created the demon subduing poles was pushed into his right arm like a red hot brand .

‘Is it you, Principal Sun? Is this your… heroic spirit?’ Meng Chao asked in his heart .

The Other World was a place where mental power was incredibly strong .

Even if a hero died, the magnetic field of their life had the possibility of instantly exploding and deeply affecting the people around it .

A heroic spirit could only be born when the timing was right, the terrain was right, and if the person was right . And even if all conditions were met, a long time was needed for a heroic spirit to form .

When Principal Sun was heavily injured, the fire of his life burned and drained all of his mental power, so he should not have become a heroic spirit .

But when he reached the end of his life, he sent his final bit of power to the new generation through resonating with Meng Chao’s brain waves, so their magnetic fields began to resonate as well .

This was the Demon Subduing Pole .

Regardless of whether the enemies were snakes, insects, rats, ants, jackals, wolves, lions, leopards, or supernatural entities, the user could kill them all with one punch!

The three spirit tattoos on Meng Chao’s right arm rose up and turned into beautiful tattoos that were profound, complicated, and resembled screws .

As his bones let out loud, cracking sounds, his right arm swelled up, and it looked as if he was wearing a gauntlet made of dark golden flames .

He pushed his fingers together and used his hand as a knife .

Spirit flames gushed out madly and turned into a blade that was three feet long .

Principal Sun’s final Demon Subduing Pole and the Ultimate Level of the future One Hundred Saber Techniques fused together .

Thud!

Meng Chao gave up on the dagger in the wolf king’s neck and rammed his right arm, which was about to shatter, into the wolf king’s left eye socket .

The left eye had already been destroyed by Principal Sun, so the wolf king could not see clearly through it . Hence, the creature did not notice Meng Chao’s actions .

It only reacted when an explosive pain spread through its mind, but it was too late .

Sizzling sounds came from right next to it . It was the sound of burning .

The wolf king’s brain was burned by a human’s willpower .

The wolf king let out a pained cry, and its biting strength instantly became weaker .

Meng Chao shouted, and his spirit energy shot forward to circulate around his arm . He treated his fingers as steel hooks and started tearing into the wolf .

Ripping sounds that resembled the sounds of meat being torn instantly filled the area .

Blood and brains gushed out with the Nightmarish Beast’s spirit flames . They charged out like a volcano eruption and landed on Meng Chao’s face .

Meng Chao felt as if a meteor shower had rammed into his senses .

Since he was using Demon Subduing Poles and the Ultimate Level One Hundred Saber Techniques way past what he could endure, every nerve and cell in his body was screeching .

It was a hellish tug of war being executed in the air .

The most possible outcome was that Meng Chao and the wolf king would both end up being destroyed .

But Meng Chao did not care about it .

Principal Sun’s thin but mighty back, the words he said before his passing, and the indignant roars from countless citizens during the apocalypse turned into searing rage that spurred his spirit flames to burn fiercely . Then, through his arm, they rammed into the wolf’s brain .

The monster’s whines were drowned out by the human’s enraged cries .

The fear-inducing bloody flames were crushed by the light of Meng Chao’s willpower .

In the end, his entire arm sank into the Bloody Moon Wolf King’s shattered eye socket and was buried to the shoulder in wolf brains .

Meng Chao crushed the wolf king’s brains, cut off the connection of the nerves, and severed all of the blood vessels . ‘If you want our lives, then we’ll take your soul so that you can never be reborn!’

Meng Chao finally saw fear, puzzlement, regret, and hatred in the Bloody Moon Wolf King’s remaining eye .

It was terrified of the violence rained on its body .

It was also puzzled by how such raging flames could be contained in such a small body .

And it regretted that it had walked straight to its own death . It hated that it had provoked this human .

But it was too late .

Meng Chao dug around fiercely, and when he grabbed something, he yanked it out fiercely .

The Bloody Moon Wolf King let out its final cry .

The Nightmarish Beast which had once led hundreds of monsters and declared itself king in the depths of the fog finally fell with a bang at the feet of a human .

Meng Chao collapsed as well .

As if he had sunk into the swamp of darkness, his body functions turned off one by one .

Only the strange fire at the corner of his eyes continued making calculations without knowing tiredness . Soon, the total contribution points gained from killing a superbeast and completing the quest showed up .

Meng Chao smiled . He did not care about the numbers that kept jumping .

‘So, killing superbeasts actually feels this great . To hell with Kindling and the contribution points . They’re nothing . Just for this matchless pleasure alone, I will—

‘Hang on a second, just a second . How many? How many contribution points did I get from this?

‘I completed the Bloody Moon Massacre and gained 9,999 contribution points! I won against something stronger than me by killing the Bloody Moon Wolf King and gained 5,545 points on top of that! I also inherited the will of a heroic citizen, which gave me another 5,045 points . And besides that, I awakened the supernatural skill, Demon Subduing Pole, as well!’

Meng Chao was dumbfounded .

Above the bright numbers, the clouds spread out and revealed a brilliant red sun . The sky was bright once more .

Dozens of armored airships tore through the clouds, and golden rays spread far into the lands .

Cheers rose in the area . They came from people who had lived through a disaster .

Meng Chao released a long sigh among the cheers .

In his daze, he saw the golden rays gather together to form Principal Sun’s face .

It was smiling .

Meng Chao smiled at Principal Sun as well, and as his head fell on his burning right arm, he fell asleep .
