Gods: Civilization Cultivation, Infinite War

Chapter 135 Absolute crushing
Hearing this, the veins on the old man's face popped up and he immediately laughed in anger.

“Okay, okay, I’ve lived for over a hundred years, but this is the first time I’ve seen a young man as arrogant as you.

In that case, I will not hold back any longer."

As soon as he finished speaking, the old man's body changed again. Under the influence of the giant beast's blood, the characteristics of various giant beasts gradually emerged.

The whole person's body size suddenly increased from just over two meters to more than five meters.

The wings behind him became increasingly larger, and every flap of them would sweep out a whistling gale.

The surface of its body is covered with dense scales, and its hands and feet have corresponding sharp claws.

Several pairs of long horns appeared on the top of the head, intertwined with each other, forming a ferocious crown.

The pupils became vertical and a thick tail grew out of its back.

This appearance is completely different from the original one. The only connection is that they are both human-shaped.

This humanoid monster possesses many characteristics of giant beasts and is truly a monster among monsters.

"Young man, let me remind you one last time that it's difficult for me to maintain my sanity in this state.

It's not too late for you to admit defeat now, but later you won't have the chance to regret it."

At this moment, the old man's voice became muffled as he gave Eric his final advice.

He did not understand the strength of the civilization behind the young people outside this world, nor did he want to rashly make an enemy of them.

Facing the old man's advice, Eric still didn't take it to heart: "I told you, you can go all out, I can withstand it.

By the way, I'm actually older than you, I just look younger."

Although hunters can draw strength from the blood of giant beasts to improve themselves, they cannot significantly increase their lifespan.

Instead, they will be affected by the bloodline of the giant beast and need to bear various negative consequences.

It is very rare to find a hunter like the old man who can live to over a hundred years old.

Hearing Eric say this, a hint of surprise flashed in the old man's eyes, and then he nodded: "In that case, then let's fight!"

The old man, no longer holding back, displayed extremely powerful fighting power.

His eyes focused, and a terrifying pressure from the giant beast king descended instantly, sweeping towards Eric like a substance.

Then the horny crown on his head directly attracted endless power of heavenly thunder, which turned into countless lightning bolts and directly hit Eric.

This was only the old man's first attack. As hunters, their strongest area was always close combat.

The scales on his body allowed him to ignore lightning strikes, and the two sides fought while being bathed in lightning.

What made the old man feel a little unbelievable was that Eric was able to remain relaxed even when he was using all his strength.

Neither the power of the king nor the bombardment of lightning had any effect on him.

Even in close combat, he still couldn't gain any advantage.

You must know that after fully activating the power of his own blood, every part of the old man's body can be transformed into a deadly weapon during battle.

Hundreds of years of combat experience have enabled him to maximize his physical advantages.

However, Eric was able to fight him in close combat with the body of an ordinary human and not be at a disadvantage. There was nothing special about the fighting skills he displayed.

Although he was reluctant to admit it, the old man was basically certain that the opponent's fighting skills were far superior to his own.

Just like he could easily defeat other hunters while maintaining his human size, it was because his fighting skills were far superior to those of the hunters.

The old man felt extremely aggrieved at the feeling of being crushed in the field he was best at.

As time went by, the old man's eyes gradually turned blood red, which was a sign that he was about to lose his mind.

In this state, the old man's fighting power became stronger and stronger, which also caused a certain amount of pressure on Eric.

The hunter's power comes from the bloodline power of the giant beast, and they only have one strongest state.

That is, only when they completely lose their sanity and can only rely on instinct to control themselves can they truly exert all the power of their bloodline.

The old man hadn't completely lost his mind at this moment, and a suppressed voice came out of his mouth: "We can't fight here, otherwise it will affect the residents below."

Many hunters only have one chance in their lifetime to attack with all their strength, and after that they will become humanoid monsters with only instinct.

Although the old man can ensure that his sanity returns, he will also fall into a state of loss of control for a certain period of time.

At this moment, both of them were deliberately avoiding affecting the residents of the city below.

But if the old man completely loses his mind, it will be hard to say.

Eric also understood what the old man meant, but he didn't mean to leave. He just nodded and said, "Then let's not fight anymore. Let's just end it."

A huge domain erupted from Eric's body, instantly suppressing the countless lightning bolts around him.

Under the influence of the field, the old man's sanity, which was about to be completely lost, was pulled back a little.

But before he could react, Eric appeared right in front of him.

A simple and unpretentious punch landed slowly on the old man's right chest.

The next moment, a blood hole the size of a water tank appeared on the old man's back. Eric's punch directly penetrated the opponent.

The scales that could fight head-on with wild beasts without any damage were like a layer of thin paper and could not provide any protection.

Countless blood spurted out from the wound and splashed into the distance.

The old man's eyes became dull, the blood power in his body gradually receded, and his body shape returned to its original appearance.

Then there was a free fall from a high altitude, and the old man fell directly from a height of thousands of meters, creating a big hole in the ground.

"President! How is this possible?"

All the hunters who were watching the battle looked incredulous at this moment. They had never expected this.

The president, who is considered to be one of the strongest people in the world, was defeated so quickly.

They didn't even have time to react until the old man fell to the ground, then they quickly organized their men to protect him.

"Don't worry, your guild leader wasn't seriously injured.

I just sealed off a portion of his power, which is why he fell down directly."

Looking at the group of hunters staring at him angrily, Eric explained calmly.

"Ahem! I'm fine, all of you please get out of the way." The old man also woke up from a brief coma. Even though the power of his bloodline was sealed, with his physical strength, he would not suffer any harm if he fell from a height of thousands of meters.

Seeing the old man wake up, everyone finally felt relieved and made way for Eric.

"Why is it so strong?"

At this moment, the seal on the old man has disappeared. Under the power of his blood, the huge wound on his body is recovering rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye.

But the old man didn't care about these details at all, and directly asked Eric the question that concerned him most.

For an old hunter like him who has been fighting all his life, it is difficult to understand that Eric can defeat a hunter like him who has the blood of a giant beast with his own strength.

If human power can really reach this level, then what is the meaning of the existence of hunters like them?

"Perhaps it's because the extraordinary profession I'm employed in is far superior to the extraordinary profession of hunter?"

Although he has awakened the power of the time system, Eric's extraordinary profession has nothing to do with the time system.

It’s not that he doesn’t want to work in the extraordinary profession of the time system, but he has no choice.

After all, the extraordinary professions in the time system are not regular extraordinary professions at all, and ordinary people cannot meet the requirements for employment.

Even for a person favored by God like him, it is not easy to find a job in the extraordinary profession of the time system.

Until he was about to graduate from the Expedition Academy, he had only barely met the employment requirements for several extraordinary professions in the time system.

He had already awakened the power of the time system, and did not have much demand for the abilities of the extraordinary professions in the time system.

After weighing the pros and cons, he finally gave up the extraordinary career in the employment time system and chose other extraordinary careers instead.

In this case, the one who best suits his own wishes is naturally the Templar.

After all, the Templar is the mainstream profession in the Holy Angel Legion, and even in the beginning it was the only extraordinary profession in the Holy Angel Legion.

It was not until later that other extraordinary professions such as elemental mages were added.

For Eric, choosing to become a Templar also means embarking on the same path as his idol.

The rules that the Templars need to follow are not a restriction for him. Even without these rules, he will still strictly demand himself.

And he doesn't have any extra talents in other extraordinary systems.

In comparison, the Templar is the most suitable for him.

In addition, the 'advance' of power he awakened can also form a perfect combination with most extraordinary professions, and the Templar is no exception.

Otherwise, he would not have been able to stand out among the geniuses of many worlds, and even become the leader of one of the strongest factions within the Glory Expeditionary Corps.

The Templar is known for its nearly omnipotent combat methods and is one of the most powerful extraordinary professions in the warrior system.

Although the Hunter profession is considered very good in the warrior system, there is still a clear gap between it and the Templar.

Not to mention that Eric is different from ordinary Templars. The power of "advance payment" allows his foundation in various fields to reach an extremely exaggerated level.

When he was a low-ranking Templar, he was no match for the holy angels who had become Templars.

When he reached the mid-level Templar stage, he was able to fight on equal terms with most holy angels of the same level, with both sides winning and losing.

After becoming a high-level Templar, most of the holy angels of the same level were gradually no longer his match.

Today, Eric has reached the pinnacle of the ninth-level Templar. It is no exaggeration to say that in the entire Kingdom of Dawn.

He is the first person below the legend, and only those extraordinary people who have embarked on the road to legend can be compared with him.

Although the old man's strength can be regarded as the best among the ninth-level transcendents, he is no match for Eric and can be easily defeated with a little more attention.

"Extraordinary profession?"

The old man was still a little confused.

Because this plane is a special plane, its resources and ecology seem to be tailor-made for behemoths.

Intelligent races want to develop other extraordinary professions, but they simply do not have the corresponding resources.

In the entire plane, there is only one extraordinary profession, 'Hunter'.

Therefore, the old man had no concept of extraordinary professions and could not understand what Eric meant at all.

Seeing this, Eric could only explain the concept of extraordinary professions to the other party as simply as possible.

"So that's how it is. Besides becoming a hunter, intelligent life forms actually have so many other options, and they can all wield powerful powers.

Being able to fight against a giant beast, and even easily defeat it, without relying on its bloodline power, is truly beyond my imagination."

After listening to Eric's explanation, the old man said with some emotion.

"You don't have to belittle yourself. This world is not suitable for the reproduction and development of intelligent life.

The fact that you have been able to survive between the giants and develop to your current heights is already a remarkable feat.

The extraordinary profession of 'Hunter' also has great potential, and there must be relevant records in the kingdom.

After you join the kingdom, the kingdom will naturally help you complete the entire hunter system.

By then, hunters might be able to fully control their own bloodline power, no longer having to endure the various negative effects brought about by the bloodline of the giant beast, or at least be able to mitigate those effects."

Hearing this, the old man was silent for a moment.

The strength displayed by Eric has completely exceeded his imagination. Just as they said before, maintaining neutrality is based on the premise of having sufficient strength.

Judging from the current situation, I really no longer have the qualifications to remain neutral.

But after all, this is just one of the ten regional headquarters of the Hunter Association.

He also didn't know how powerful the civilization behind Eric was, and whether it could really conquer the entire world easily.

If I just join them like this, and the Hunter Association defeats them again, my situation will be a bit embarrassing.

Noticing the old man's hesitation, Eric didn't care and continued, "You seem to have some concerns, and I can understand that.

Let's take some time to get to know each other before we consider what's next."

“How do we get to know each other?”

"Well, let's start with our first collaboration."
