Biochemical Martial Arts: Supreme Heavenly Venerate

Lin Rui looked at Yue Tianqing as she pounced towards him, his eyes slightly darkening.

In fact, this 'Yue Tianqing' was not really to be feared. Lin Rui had exchanged blows with her two days before, and while wearing the Heavenly Demon Dragon Armor, he was not inferior to this seventh-realm transcendental king.

In a fair fight, Lin Rui knew it was impossible to defeat her, but she also couldn't hope to deal with him quickly.

What's more, there was a significant difference between his current state and that of two days ago—Lin Rui now possessed the protective Dragon Seal, which could harness the power of Dragon Gang Qi!

Additionally, Yue Tianqing was still injured, particularly from the poison on his blade two days ago. Not only did it have a unique scent that made tracking easier, but it could also infiltrate deep into the marrow and blood, possessing the ability to corrode the spirit and disintegrate flesh and blood. Even a strong person at the seventh realm would find it difficult to purify and expel.

This woman somehow managed to temporarily suppress the poison, but her combat power certainly couldn't recover to its peak.

The real problem was the five assistants that came with Yue Tianqing—the five demons that burst out from the cavern were all lunging towards him.

Lin Rui summoned 'Spirit Ming Heavenly Dragon' back and did his utmost, but could only block three of them.

The other two were unobstructed—one was the 'Ironclad Crocodile Demon' and the other the 'Red Thunder Wing Demon', both of them seventh-realm transcendental kings with formidable strength. Their eyes bloodshot and breath extremely ferocious, it was clear they had lost their reasoning and had locked onto Lin Rui as their target.

Lin Rui's Blood Blade Ji was tied up, battling furiously with Yue Tianqing's combat dragon.

The woman had gone mad, and the battle dragon was recklessly aggressive, even going so far as to not care about exchanging injuries.

This made Ji Xueying, who was trying to cope, extremely strained, and she already had no time to look after her master.

Li Wei and his martial sister were also of no immediate help; the smugglers' several sixth and seventh realm members, also disregarding life and death, were all-out assisting that eighth realm sorcerer, restraining and obstructing the two, preventing them from providing aid to Lin Rui.

At this time, the only ones that could help were thirty sixth-realm 'Eight-Armed Heavenly Tiger Crossbows' and three seventh-realm 'Twelve-Armed Zhulong Crossbows'.

These heavy crossbow batteries were rather cumbersome to set up, and currently, only eight were ready to fire, targeting the 'Ironclad Crocodile Demon' and 'Red Thunder Wing Demon'.

Lin Rui maneuvered in the Heavenly Demon Dragon Armor, constantly flashing back.

He was using the 'Brilliant Thunder Aurora Escape', making rapid evasive moves thanks to the high-level 'Five Thunder Talismans' and 'Aurora Talismans' he had previously set up.

The 'Abyssal Core' that Lin Rui refined in the Divine Dragon Hall served as his second Golden Core.

This second Golden Core not only cause an explosive increase in his True Qi capacity, but it also provided a higher-level, higher-quality True Qi.

Lin Rui now had sufficient power to carry his Heavenly Demon Dragon Armor and perform the 'Brilliant Thunder Aurora Escape', dashing and moving in concert.

The only downside was that it was slightly slower than his body's own escape moves, and it also consumed a large amount of True Qi.

However, Lin Rui had the 'Blood Core Kuangyang', a 'Blood Core Kuangyang' that had been enhanced to the limit with the Heart Source, and two Golden Cores, which completely supported the expenditure.

The problem was that Yue Tianqing's escape skills were also very fast. This woman clearly had no desire to live, pushing her blood qi and True Yuan to the extreme in a reckless and furious pursuit.

Their weapons clashed with a roar, creating a series of 'clang! clang! clang!' sounds, sparks flying, and shockwaves sweeping through, with Gang Qi shooting in all directions.

Wherever the two went, the many remaining buildings within the estate were all smashed to ruins.

Lin Rui's present use of 'Brilliant Thunder Aurora Escape' was mainly to dodge the 'Ironclad Crocodile Demon' and 'Red Thunder Wing Demon'.

Demons, due to their large size, usually aren't very skilled at escaping.

The 'Ironclad Crocodile Demon' was manageable as its great strength was hampered by its bulk. Your journey continues at My Virtual Library Empire

But the 'Red Thunder Wing Demon' was very troublesome. Spreading its bat-like wings and flying high in the sky, it occasionally thundered down crimson thunderbolts, causing Lin Rui to be quite wary.

If not for the heavy crossbows being successively put into place and beginning to unleash firepower, effectively restraining the demon, Lin Rui could only have held out for a maximum of 10 seconds before being cornered to death by this one person and two demons.

Lin Rui's current situation was also quite bad. He could hear the twin blades in his hands and the armor pieces on his arms wailing under Yue Tianqing's violent onslaught.

While the armor pieces could still hold up, the pair of blades kept chipping and notching.

The twin blades Lin Rui held were bought from an Artifact Refiner in Wang City before he left, merely sixth-realm king-grade, suitable for use as small dragon sabers with the dragon armor.

In the hands of a large battle dragon, these weapons were like small daggers, but in the hands of the Heavenly Demon Dragon Armor, they were more like longswords.

The key issue was that their strength wasn't enough, and under Yue Tianqing's frenzied slashing, they were gradually becoming overwhelmed.

Fortunately, there was the Dragon Gang Qi provided by the protective Dragon Seal, which not only enhanced Lin Rui's strength and Gang Qi but also slightly increased the durability of these weapons.

Therefore, the twin sabers were merely chipping and rolling at the edges, while no cracks had yet appeared within their blades.

"Boom!"

Lin Rui manipulated his "Thunder Soul Pearl" and unleashed the third strike of dark golden thunder at Yue Tianqing.

This thunder provided Lin Rui with a brief respite to catch his breath.

"You are dead meat!"

Yue Tianqing glared at him with bloodshot eyes, as strands of crimson thunder diffused from behind her back, resembling a pair of enormous thunder wings.

Her face also revealed lines resembling red thunderbolts: "Your Thunder Soul Pearl will need another 22 breaths to gather the next thunder strike! Within these 22 breaths, I will surely slaughter you."

Yue Tianqing flashed forward once again, with her sword slashing even faster and more ferociously.

Upon seeing this, Lin Rui felt a touch of strangeness in his heart.

He guessed that this woman before him had likely undergone demon transformation, or at least was in the process of it, and could now be considered a Martial Cultivator of the demons!

Indeed, a Martial Cultivator of the seventh realm is not to be trifled with, especially a crazed one!

He wore the Heavenly Demon Dragon Armor and possessed an unparalleled escape skill, with dragon Gang Qi swirling around his body, and he also had support from over 30 heavy crossbow turrets from afar, yet he was still chased down in an embarrassing state by the woman opposite him.

Just then, a gigantic crocodile head suddenly struck from behind Lin Rui.

It was the "Ironclad Croc Demon," which had deceived everyone present with a metallic armored body while its true form appeared behind Lin Rui using the metal escape technique.

Upon witnessing this, the corners of Yue Tianqing's mouth curled into a slight, cold smirk as she executed her long-prepared ultimate move of the seventh realm, the "Sky Leaning Thunder Slash."

This was a technique she created by fusing the foundational "Radiant Thunder Slash" with her own magical power.

Unfortunately, she had lost the "Thunder Soul Pearl"; otherwise, the power of this move could have reached the apex of the seventh realm!

"Boom!"

With a resounding explosion that shook everyone's eardrums, a vast sea of crimson thunder enveloped Lin Rui.

Meng Weiyun, sensing this scene from afar, couldn't help but inwardly exclaim 'not good.' Just as she was preparing to burst forth at any cost to assist Lin Hao, a sound of surprise escaped her lips.

Lin Hao had actually flashed out, his entire person transforming into an aurora and escaping from the vast thunderous sea.

A look of astonishment appeared in Meng Weiyun's eyes; she recognized that must be a secret escape skill of the fifth realm, exceptionally regal.

Moreover, it was not just that; this escape skill must have incorporated some kind of powerful bloodline talent, able to even disturb the fabric of space-time, enabling one to break free from the pincer attack of two powerful seventh realm experts.

Not far away, Yue Tianqing felt it even more clearly, her pupils dilating before rapidly constricting.

This must be the imperial bloodline talent "Ultra Solar Instant"!

It's one of the abilities most coveted by all solar system Martial Artists; not only can it promote all solar talents by one to a half grade, but it can also in an instant interfere with the surrounding temporal and spatial order, thus bringing one's attack speed and escape skill to an extreme, frightfully formidable level.

At this moment, the "Ultra Solar Instant" combined with the fifth realm's secret escape skill Lin Rui executed resulted in an almost instantaneous flash-like effect!

Lin Rui, on the other hand, felt a surge of relief. If he weren't holding his knives in both hands, he would have wanted to pat his own little heart in gratitude.

Luckily he had used thirteen type-5 enhancers in a row a few days before, simultaneously awakening this talent from the SSS-grade analogous organism equipment; otherwise, he might have been slain by Yue Tianqing now!

However, at that instant, the "Crimson Thunder Winged Demon" suddenly turned its entire body into a plasma of thunder, transforming into a thunderous giant bird and swooping toward Lin Rui's position.

At the same moment, Yue Tianqing turned back to slice, sweeping a sword Gang Qi that extended a hundred feet mixed with the vast crimson thunderous sea, slashing towards Lin Rui.

This was the Sky Leaning Thunder Slash—second stage slash!

"Die for me!"

A near-mad triumphant grin appeared in Yue Tianqing's eyes.

Her second-stage slash, merging the power of the previous blade, had the force of a seventh-realm super emperor!

So this bastard was certainly doomed!

Even in death, even if she had to undergo demon transformation, she would drag this man to hell with her!

Lin Rui's expression, however, remained indifferent as he tightly gripped his twin blades, his mind incredibly calm as he observed everything around him.

He found himself trapped in a pincer attack once again, pushed to the brink of 'extinction.'

But just as Lin Rui was casting aside all distractions, ready to give his all in a final stand, he sensed an extremely powerful bloodline force rapidly awakening within him.
