High Martial Arts: Liver Becomes the Master of the Universe

Chapter 410 Tearing Apart a Venerable One, Gene Enhancement!

The Chosen Battlefield, the Human Fortress.

As the first rays of dawn pierced through the artificial atmosphere above the fortress, Qin Feng was wiping his hands.

Although there was no blood or dust on his hands, it was a habit.

Construction of the fortress is on track, automated puppets are patrolling in an orderly manner, and the phase logic core is emitting a stable, dark blue glow.

Just then, the system notification sound that had put all the chosen ones in the universe on edge suddenly rang out without warning.

【Ding. 】

[High-energy reaction detected from the enemy faction.]

[Triggering Area Clearance Mission: Remove the Venomous Fangs.]

[Mission Description: Located in the northwest of S-09 area, "Burial Ridge" is a forward outpost and flesh-and-blood factory established by the demon race. The commander of this stronghold is attempting to forcibly break through the suppression of battlefield rules and restore peak combat power by sacrificing prisoners of other races to refine "Ancient Demon True Blood."]

Mission Objective: Destroy the Burial Ridge stronghold and kill its commander, Bloodcrocodile Venerable.

[Hostile intelligence: Blood Crocodile Venerable (Peak Venerable Realm, extremely strong physical defense, proficient in bloodline rules).]

Time limit: 4 hours.

[Rewards: Human Gene Lock Unlock (Phase 1); Special Building Blueprint "Martial Arts Hall"]

The Real Universe, the Terra Council.

Upon seeing the words "Blood Crocodile Venerable," countless red warning boxes instantly popped up on the intelligence department's holographic screen.

"Is that it?!"

An old general slammed his fist on the table. "Three hundred years ago, on the edge of the Andromeda Galaxy, this crocodile swallowed an entire fleet whole! It was a true physical being, with thick skin that even antimatter cannons couldn't penetrate!"

"Although Venerable Qin is also at the Venerable Realm, he is, after all, a human. To clash head-on with a naturally powerful demon race..."

"Don't worry."

In the corner, the young chief of staff, who had become a fanatical follower of Qin Feng, pushed up his glasses and said, "Have you forgotten? Venerable Qin's physical body is called 'Primordial Limit'."

Inside the Chosen Battlefield.

Qin Feng glanced at the mission panel, a cruel smile curving his lips.

"Blood Crocodile?"

"Perfect timing. The stronghold's moat is short a few guard animals. Even though they're dead, their skins can still be used."

He did not notify anyone and did not carry any heavy weapons.

He simply took off the white robe that symbolized "Guardian" and put on a black outfit.

This outfit is the same one he wore when he fought on the battlefield of all races, where blood flowed like rivers.

"Open the warp gate."

"Coordinates: Directly above Burial Ridge".

Qin Feng took a step forward.

Burial Ridge, a name that truly lives up to its name.

This is a vast canyon, its floor piled high with white bones—some humanoid, some giant beasts. The air is thick with the stench of blood and decay.

In the center of the canyon, on an altar made of blood and obsidian, a giant crocodile, fifty meters tall, is coiled.

It retains its half-human, half-beast form, its entire body covered in dark red scales, each scale shrouded in the wailing of wronged souls.

This is the Blood Crocodile Venerable.

"Roar……"

The Blood Crocodile Venerable let out a satisfied growl. It had just devoured a hundred pig-headed warriors, and its blood and energy were boiling.

"It'll be soon... Once I devour another thousand living beings, I can temporarily break the rules and regain my peak Venerable strength! At that time, that human Qin Feng will be my best tonic!"

Just as it was envisioning the future.

The sky cracked open.

There were no earth-shattering energy fluctuations, only a figure, falling straight down like a meteorite.

boom! ! !
The figure crashed heavily onto a boulder less than a hundred meters from the altar.

As the smoke cleared, Qin Feng stood there with his hands in his pockets.

The surrounding demon guards—thousands of bloodthirsty wolf demons and armored rhinoceroses—were instantly struck by the shockwave from the fall, causing them to bleed from all seven orifices and collapse to the ground.

"Who?!"

The Blood Crocodile Venerable suddenly opened his golden vertical pupils, and his killing intent surged out as if it were a tangible substance.

"A human? Qin Feng?!"

It was stunned at first, then overjoyed.

"You've got a path to heaven but you won't take it! I was just wondering how to find you, and you actually delivered yourself to my doorstep to make me some desserts?"

The barrage in the live broadcast room exploded instantly.

"Hahaha! This human has gotten too cocky! Does he think Lord Blood Crocodile is that fragile Spirit Race guy who only knows illusion magic?"

"Lord Blood Crocodile is physically invincible! In this battlefield where cultivation is suppressed, physical strength is the true measure of power!"

Tear him to shreds! Turn him into jerky!

"This crocodile is huge... Qin Shen looks like an ant in front of it."

"The sense of oppression is so intense that I feel suffocated even through the screen."

"Why doesn't Qin Shen draw his gun? Doesn't he have that divine gun?"

Qin Feng looked at the colossal beast before him, which was as large as a mountain, but his expression remained calm.

He extended a finger and beckoned.

"I heard you have tough skin?"

"Come on, let me try it out."

The Blood Crocodile Venerable, provoked, flew into a rage.

"Insects! Die!"

Its thick, pillar-like hind legs slammed into the ground, and its massive body unleashed a speed that defied the laws of physics.

The air was torn apart, creating a series of sonic booms.

A gigantic claw covered in scales, carrying the force of millions of tons, slammed down.

This blow was enough to shatter a mountain.

Faced with this devastating blow, Qin Feng did not dodge.

He didn't even use any rule-based power to weaken his opponent.

He simply squatted down slightly and pulled his right fist back. In that instant, every muscle in his body worked in unison like a sophisticated hydraulic press.

The Primordial Limit Dao Body operates at full power.

"Bang Fist."

Just two simple words.

Qin Feng threw a punch.

Boom-! ! !
Two fists, one large and one small, completely disproportionate, collided violently in mid-air.

Time seems to stand still at this moment.

Immediately following was a sickeningly loud cracking sound.

Click!

The scene that viewers of all races imagined—Qin Feng being smashed into mincemeat—did not occur.

in contrast.

The fifty-meter-tall Blood Crocodile Venerable let out a shrill scream.

Its right claw, along with its entire right arm, was shattered by Qin Feng's punch!
Its enormous body flew backward like a ball hit by a train, crashing into and collapsing the mountain of bones behind it.

"This...this is impossible!"

Blood Crocodile Venerable struggled to his feet, his arrogance instantly turning into terror.

"I possess a Venerable-level demonic body! My scales have been refined through ten thousand years of blood! How could you possibly shatter my bones with your bare body?!"

Qin Feng withdrew his fist and gently blew a breath.

"Venerable level?"

He walked step by step toward the Blood Crocodile, each step leaving a deep footprint in the ground.

"I was that kind of thing tens of thousands of years ago."

The Blood Crocodile Venerable felt threatened by death.

It no longer remained, opening its blood-red maw.

"Innate Divine Ability: Death Roll! Blood River Devouring!"

A thick stream of blood gushed from its mouth, transforming into countless crimson chains that attempted to entangle Qin Feng. Simultaneously, its massive body spun violently, hurtling towards Qin Feng like a meat grinder.

"Fancy."

Qin Feng snorted coldly.

With a stomp of his foot, he instantly appeared above the Blood Crocodile Venerable's head.

He stretched out his hands and grabbed the edges of the Blood Crocodile Venerable's upper and lower jaws.

"Stop... just now!"

Qin Feng's arms were bulging with muscles, and his veins were as prominent as dragons.

He actually managed to hold down a giant beast that was spinning at high speed and was thousands of times his size all by himself!

sizzle-

Qin Feng's shoes dug two deep furrows in the ground, sparks flying everywhere.

But after gliding for 100 meters...

The Blood Crocodile Venerable stopped.

The battlefield fell into dead silence.

Both those watching the live stream and the surviving demons at the scene were stunned by what they saw. A human had single-handedly brought a rampaging prehistoric behemoth to a halt.

The scene is visually striking, as if the Titans from mythology have descended.

The Blood Crocodile Venerable was truly terrified at this moment.

Its mouth was held shut by Qin Feng's hands, unable to close, and it could only let out a mournful whimper from its throat.

Its proud power is like an infant facing an adult in the face of this human being.

"Didn't you scream happily just now?"

Qin Feng stood on the blood crocodile's nose, his eyes as cold as knives.

You said you wanted to turn me into a dessert?

"Unfortunately, I don't eat wild animals because I'm afraid of parasites."

Qin Feng began to exert force with his arms.

"open."

Click...click...

A creepy sound rang out.

That was the sound of muscles being torn apart and bones being forcibly broken.

Blood Crocodile Venerable's mouth began to tear, and blood gushed out like a waterfall, staining Qin Feng's black clothes red.

The excruciating pain caused the blood crocodile to struggle wildly, its tail lashing the ground, triggering a magnitude 10 earthquake.

But Qin Feng's feet seemed rooted to the spot, remaining completely still.

"No... have mercy... I'm willing to submit! I'm willing to be your mount!"

The Blood Crocodile Venerable's soul emitted a pleading wave.

The dignity of a venerable one? It's worthless in the face of life and death.

"Mount?"

Qin Feng sneered.

"You're too ugly, you're an eyesore."

The words fell.

Qin Feng let out a loud shout.

"Die!!!"

Sizzle—!!!
A deafening roar, like tearing silk, echoed throughout the entire battlefield of the chosen ones.

Under the watchful eyes of hundreds of billions of people throughout the universe.

Qin Feng suddenly spread his hands outwards.

That Blood Crocodile Venerable, possessing Venerable-level defense and known as immortal, was actually forcefully...

Starting from the mouth, it was torn all the way to the tail!

split into two!
Blood rained down from the sky.

The two enormous halves of the corpse collapsed with a crash, spilling their internal organs all over the ground.

A "core" emitting a rich red light rolled down to Qin Feng's feet.

Qin Feng stood in the rain of blood, his entire body covered in it.

That smile was more ferocious than a demon's, and more majestic than a god's.

"next."

There are no bullet comments.

For a full ten seconds, there wasn't a single comment on the Wanzu Channel.

Everyone was stunned by this pure, violent aesthetic.

This is not a victory of combat skills; it is a crushing defeat on a spiritual level.

Tear the venerable alive.

This word is destined to become a nightmare for all races for the next ten thousand years.

Qin Feng bent down and picked up the Demon Emperor's inner core, then casually put the two halves of the corpse into his storage space.

At this moment, the system's settlement announcement finally sounded, its voice seemingly trembling slightly.

As this golden pillar of light shot into the sky, humanity in the real universe ushered in a true "physical awakening."

Blue Star, Third Basic Martial Arts Middle School, playground.

"Lin Xiao, hit harder! Are you tickling a wooden stake?"

The instructor's stern reprimands echoed in his ears. Lin Xiao gritted his teeth, his forehead covered in sweat as he pounded the alloy wooden stake in front of him.

His fists were red and swollen, his arms ached, and his lungs felt like they were on fire.

"I can't... I'm naturally weak..." Lin Xiao thought in despair.

In this era, poor physical health means no future.

at this time.

On the screen, the image of Qin Feng tearing the blood crocodile apart flashed by.

Immediately afterwards, an indescribable heat surged from the tailbone of Lin Xiao's spine and instantly permeated his entire body.

That's feedback from the "gene lock unlocking".

He felt as if some shackles within his body had broken. His once heavy arms suddenly became light, and the dried-up blood and energy within his body surged like a river.

"drink!"

Lin Xiao instinctively threw a punch.

There are no fancy moves, just the most basic straight punch.

Bang—crack!
The alloy wooden stake, which was strong enough to withstand the full force of a beginner martial artist, was actually broken in half by this punch!
At the fracture point, the metal is twisted and deformed.

The playground became quiet in an instant.

The instructor's mouth dropped open, and the whistle in his hand fell to the ground.

Lin Xiao stared blankly at his fist, which had no marks, only a thin layer of red steam rising from it.

He raised his head and looked up at the sky. The timidity in his eyes disappeared, replaced by a light called "wildness".

"I...have become stronger?"

Wilderness area, hunting station number 72.

Heavy rain.

Old Zhao and his three teammates huddled back to back at the entrance of a cave.

Outside, there were dozens of green eyes—a pack of mutated "Ironback Wolves".

"Captain, we're out of bullets." The team member's voice was trembling with tears.

"Damn it... How come these bastards are so smart today? They even managed to flank us?"

Old Zhao gripped his machete tightly, his palms sweating. "I'll rush out and distract them, you guys run."

Just as the Ironback Wolf Pack launched its all-out attack and pounced forward...

Feedback from the Chosen Battlefield has arrived.

[Hunter's Instinct] Activated.

At that moment, the world in Lao Zhao's eyes changed.

The Ironback Wolf, which was originally incredibly swift, seemed to move a beat slower in his eyes.

Even more amazingly, a red dot lit up on each wolf's body—those were their fatal weaknesses: the cartilage in their waist, three inches below their throat, and their left eye.

That instinctive fear of facing wild beasts inexplicably disappeared.

Instead, there is a kind of cold-bloodedness at the top of the food chain.

"Afraid of a ball!"

Old Zhao roared and, instead of running away, charged towards the pack of wolves.

Swish!
The sword flashed.

It precisely cut three inches below the alpha wolf's throat, which is the weakest point in its armor.

Kill with one knife.

Immediately afterwards, Old Zhao sidestepped, slid, and swung his knife. Every movement was as if he had practiced it a thousand times—precise, deadly, and utterly swift.

Three minutes later.

The cave entrance was littered with wolf carcasses.

Old Zhao stood in the rain, panting heavily. He looked at the knife in his hand, then at the wolf king lying on the ground, and suddenly burst into laughter.

"Hahaha! So you're nothing special after all!"

"From today onwards, the roles of offense and defense have reversed!"

The team members looked at their captain with admiration, as if he were a god of war.

What they didn't know was that this change was happening to every human being in the entire universe.

Humans, once considered "two-legged sheep" on the menu of all races, have finally revealed their fangs.
