Chapter 860: 860
Shua!
Li Yao's left arm shrank rapidly at a visible speed . A cluster of red brilliance rushed out of the super crystal at the center of his palm toward a Mirage Falcon that he had locked onto since long ago at a speed more than five times the speed of sound!
The Mirage Falcons were in their most vulnerable state when they launched the 'Fiery Shooting Stars' . Their necks that were extended to the maximum ruined their streamlined body, making them unable to keep cruising at a supersonic speed . The demonic energy that they released continuously made them even more obvious targets than they should have been, too!
Li Yao chose the perfect moment to attack, which was when the marrow crystals inside the craws of the Mirage Falcons were about to enter the most heated state . A hundred billion cells were obliterated and turned into the purest energy, which congregated into the cluster of red brilliance through the reflections and refractions of the super crystal . The attack hit the head of the Mirage Falcon precisely, leading to a chain reaction in the marrow crystals inside its crawl and detonating the next wave of the 'Fiery Shooting Stars'!
"Not good!"
Every feather on the face of the young master of the Feather Clan stood up, making his head three times as large . He shrieked loudly and aborted the attack of the Fiery Shooting Stars in time, soaring up with the Mirage Falcon!
However, not all his teammates were as adept at reining a biochemical beast as he was .
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
After a series of thunderous explosions, the sky immediately turned into a surging ocean of flames, which raised tides hundreds of meters high . Most of the Mirage Falcons were consumed . A storm of fiery drops rained down and covered dozens of square kilometers nearby!
However, other than Li Yao, there were a lot of hunters of the demon race who were chasing after him, too .
For a moment, the fire was burning furiously, and screams were echoing nonstop . The forest had turned into a living inferno where countless demons were struggling miserably in the intense flames . They were riddled with holes by the scorching, shooting magma and turned into burnt, black bones while they were shuddering in pain!
Although the young master of the Feather Clan soared up to the sky one step in advance, he was still lightheaded because of the blast . It was not until three seconds later that he finally came back to himself despite his expertise as a demon emperor .
When he watched the troop of Mirage Falcons, which had been what he was most proud of, screaming and shrieking in the flames, turning into roasted, bare turkeys, every feather that was standing up on his face turned into the reddest color imaginable .
"B*tch! You filthy b*tch, Jin Xinyue!
"Who is this monster that you have found? Who is he exactly?"
Right now, the 'monster', according to the young master of the Feather Clan, was fleeing quickly inside the forest . The fire and the magma became his best cover .
Under the scourge of the overwhelming Fiery Shooting Stars, most of the hunters of the demon race were killed or wounded . It would take them at least half a day before they could regroup again .
Li Yao felt that his head was dizzy, and golden swirls were popping up in front of his eyes . Although his left arm had regained its normal appearance, it was still dangling down from his shoulder limply . .
He even vaguely felt as if his entire right left was now soaked in scorching magma and about to be melted . It was about to be ignited and would be burning from inside to outside .
The deepest strength of the cells is truly dreadful, drastic, and unsteady!
Li Yao was very clear that it was a lucky incident . He had inherited part of the abilities of the Blood Stripe Virus, whose natural instincts were to control and modify genes . It was why he could manage, however unstably, the 'primeval cells' that were just activated .
If it were a different Cultivator, even if they were in the Nascent Soul Stage, unlocking the strength of genes so recklessly would have destroyed their cells and turned them into a pool of pus . When the mitochondria provided excessive energy, it was also possible that their body would burn .
Li Yao quickly thought of something . He had read in many ancient training notes that a lot of high-level Cultivators were killed in weird flames that started burning from the inside of their body without a good reason .
At first, it was believed that those Cultivators were assassinated by their enemies, or they were poisoned in a special way .
However, such cases had happened in various sects of various Sectors over thousands of years . The cause of death was always the same, but there was no trace of poison at all despite the scrutiny . It then became one of the greatest mysteries for the ancient Cultivators known as 'Spontaneous Human Combustion' .
Maybe, those ancient Cultivators discovered the secrets of genes and cells by accident, too . But they did not know the usage and activated the dangerous recessive genes in their ignorance, which made the mitochondria overload and released such a huge amount of energy that their body could not bear, causing them to be burnt in the end .
After my experience, it is safe to say that triggering the strength of cells for combat is too unstable and dangerous!
Cultivators fight their battles with spiritual energy, magical equipment, and other useful tools . Their combat ability might vary, but such a way of fighting is safe and stable . Even if they become mentally deranged, their cells would never collapse, nor would they get themselves burnt into ashes .
Li Yao pondered the advantages and disadvantages of the two different ways of fighting while he rushed almost a hundred kilometers away . He took three turns to make sure that he had no pursuers before he finally reached the top of the waterfall in the southwest .
