Chapter 149: Effortless Domination

When the opponent approached within ten meters, Lu Chen suddenly summoned the swampy black mud from his inner space.

Swish, swish... Countless streams of mud churned, transforming into pitch-black pythons as thick as millstones. Clinging tightly to the sandy beach, they surged forward rapidly and instantly coiled around the body of the Kaiju.

The swamp mud that Lu Chen currently nurtured was divided into two types.

One was nurtured purely through the laws of energy, capable of altering the form of the surrounding environment in a short period. Once energy injection ceased, it would rapidly dissipate.

The other type was the swampy black mud stored within his inner space, which was tempered by Lu Chen's consciousness at all times and contained the host's spiritual energy. Because of this, it could instantly transform its form along with the laws of energy, possessing a hardness and toughness comparable to alloy.

That Kaiju King felt as if its body was wrapped and bound by countless tough ropes, making it utterly impossible to break free.

Furthermore, Lu Chen's methods went far beyond this.

As he continuously released the laws of energy, within just a few seconds, the beach within a fifty-meter radius rapidly transformed into a massive swamp.

Countless masses of mud came alive, continuously surging upward along the Kaiju's body, covering its massive form bit by bit.

In the end, they formed a gigantic pyramid-like structure of earth.

The entire Kaiju King was completely sealed inside, vanishing from sight.

Even to this extent, the creature still did not give up struggling, its limbs flailing continuously as if trying to shatter the earthen seal.

However, it no longer had the chance.

A cold glint radiated from Lu Chen's beastly pupils as his consciousness shifted slightly.

A muffled, faint sound could be heard from inside the pyramid, akin to firecrackers popping...

The entire battlefield suddenly plunged into a state of dead silence.

The human cultivators who had been fighting at close range stopped in their tracks and watched.

The rampantly rampaging horde of Kaijus likewise halted their attacks and turned their heads toward the epicenter.

Right there was their king!

Yet now, it was nowhere to be seen.

As far as the eye could see, a thirty-meter-tall black pyramid with a base nearly fifty meters on each side stood like a colossal and majestic tomb, bringing an indescribable shock to every living creature present.

The Dragon King had indeed concealed its strength!

This bizarre and peculiar pyramid shape—whatever mutated ability it might be—was something the team members were witnessing for the very first time.

At the same time, a faint sense of anticipation stirred within their hearts. The Kaiju King should be sealed inside, and presumably unable to move for a short while... As for it being gravely injured or dead, none of them dared to imagine it.

Mainly because the impact this creature had brought to humanity upon its arrival was simply too immense.

Virtually none of the attacks had produced any effect...

Moreover, the official records explicitly stated that the powerful Merigan Nation had only managed to slay the opponent after deploying nuclear weapons.

Powerful though the Dragon King was, surely it shouldn't be able to kill the creature.

As for the netizens watching the live stream, the situation had changed so rapidly that the vast majority of them remained in a state of utter bewilderment: Why would the Dragon King suddenly appear to help humanity? This defied science!

What happened to the notion of "those not of our kin must harbor different intentions"?

Lu Chen was unaware of the thoughts running through the minds of the humans present, nor did he care to address them.

After carefully sensing the situation inside the pyramid, he halted the input of the laws of energy.

Swish, swish... The majestic pyramid constructed of earth abruptly collapsed with a roar.

The figure of that Kaiju was once again revealed in the center of the battlefield.

It stood motionless in place, resembling a lifelike sculpture, its expression still bearing a ferocious and fierce look.

A few seconds later, a few muffled sounds emanated from its body.

Finally, it crashed heavily onto the beach, kicking up bursts of sand and dust.

No roars, no struggles—it simply lay straight there, silent and motionless.

This was... dead?

How could that be!

Many team members looked at one another in dismay, finding it hard to believe their own eyes.

It was really dead?!

The Kaiju King, which had been utterly ferocious just a moment ago and left humanity completely helpless, had been effortlessly crushed by the Dragon King... dying without even knowing how its life was taken!

Up until now, they still hadn't figured out how the Dragon King had killed the exotic beast.

It had merely piled up earth to form a pyramid and suffocated the creature to death alive.

Asphyxiation, or poison?

BOOM!!

When everyone finally snapped back to reality, the atmosphere at the scene erupted like an exploding pot.

Not only that... countless netizens watching the live stream boiled over with excitement as well!!

However, it was not over yet.

Lu Chen glanced around at the surviving horde of Kaijus and struck the ground once again with his claws.

If you are going to do a good deed, do it all the way to the end. Since he had agreed to the transaction with humanity, Lu Chen naturally had no intention of quitting halfway; instead, he prepared to deliver a flawless conclusion.

Rumble!

A dozen or more swampy mud dragons burst forth from the beach, surging rapidly toward the distance.

Trailing behind them were rolling waves of black mud four to five meters high...

In an instant, all the Kaijus were swept up within them.

Another series of firecracker-like pops echoed, and when the swampy mud waves receded, the dozens of surviving exotic beasts on the field all collapsed to the ground, dead.

Bizarre!

Terrifying!

Shocking!

All the humans on the battlefield and those watching the live stream from afar fell into silence once again.

Right before their very eyes, a miracle had been staged for the second time.

They simply could not fathom what kind of mutated ability the Dragon King possessed to be able to silently slaughter so many Kaijus.

It took no more effort than blowing off dust, as casual as drinking a glass of cool water.

According to the expert panel's evaluation, the previously slain Kaiju King was at least a Tier 5 ferocious beast... Calculating based on that, the Dragon King was estimated to have reached Tier 6 or even higher, which was why it could crush the opponent so effortlessly.

What was even more commendable was that the entire execution process had been clean and decisive, without causing the slightest bit of pollution.

To Lu Chen, wanting to kill the Kaiju King was not difficult.

The method he employed was similar to humanity's initial plan.

Those creatures might look powerful, but their weaknesses were actually quite obvious.

As long as one breached their skin defense and delivered highly destructive compressed energy bombs into their bodies to detonate, it would suffice.

Therefore, he first used the Swamp of the Earth to securely immobilize the Kaiju King's body.

Then, he made the swamp transform into mud snakes that drilled into its body through its mouth, before releasing the laws of energy to condense several compressed energy bombs and detonate them, reducing its internal organs to pulp.

Of course, while the whole process sounded simple, it was not something just anyone could accomplish.

That Kaiju King wasn't a fool; it wouldn't give its enemies a chance to get close.

And trying to restrict its movements was even harder than ascending to the heavens.

Amidst the astonishment of the crowd, Lu Chen moved his four limbs and arrived before the corpse of the Kaiju King. He carefully tore off a piece of flesh weighing about half a catty and swallowed it whole.

The blood of this fellow was highly toxic, and he wasn't sure if it would affect him, so he didn't dare swallow too much...

"Prehistoric Kaiju invader cub detected, can provide 4 energy points."

After reading the text prompts on the system panel, Lu Chen set his mind at ease.

Good lord, a massive tonic!

Indeed, high risk came with high reward.

This outing had yielded a full harvest; not only did he obtain ten thousand spirit stones as payment, but there were also these Kaiju remains, weighing nearly a hundred tons in total.

Of course, the energy points contained within these small fry would surely be much less. Still, roughly calculating, they were estimated to provide around one million energy points.

He was about to strike it rich.

What astonished Lu Chen even more was that this Kaiju King, weighing over fifty tons, turned out to be merely a cub.
