Chapter 672: Three-Stage Spirit Transformation!
“Bang!”
White light directly fell in front of Fang Yu, making an explosive sound!
The ground ruptured violently, and an extremely powerful force spread outward in all directions!
A series of screams and cries rang out as the martial artists who had surrounded Fang Yu and his two companions were all blown away by the blast wave.
Among them, only one person was an exception.
It was the old man who had previously negotiated with Fang Yu on behalf of the martial artists.
Since he was very close to Fang Yu, he now sat slumped in front of the Heavenly Vault Sacred Halberd that was half-embedded in the ground, blood trickling from the corner of his mouth, his entire body trembling.
The Heavenly Vault Sacred Halberd had descended too quickly for him to dodge!
The powerful pressure had directly forced him to the ground.
Fortunately, the Heavenly Vault Sacred Halberd hadn’t struck him directly, but had pierced the ground right in front of him.
The old man’s face was deathly pale as he stared at the Heavenly Vault Sacred Halberd before him, unable to speak.
At this moment, he realized there was still a person hanging from the top of the Heavenly Vault Sacred Halberd!
This person’s face was mentally disturbed, with silver fur growing on it, looking extremely bizarre!
When the old man looked up, this strange person was looking right at him!
The strange person’s pupils were vertical slits, containing a coldness that struck deep into the soul!
The already disoriented old man, upon meeting this gaze, immediately lost control of his bladder, wetting himself.
“Enjoyed your little tour around?”
Fang Yu looked at Lu Wei, whose hands were still tightly gripping the Heavenly Vault Sacred Halberd, and asked with a smile.
Lu Wei turned his head to look at Fang Yu, his strange eyes filled with cold killing intent.
By now, he finally understood that the Heavenly Vault Sacred Halberd had acknowledged Fang Yu as its master and obeyed his commands.
This situation was something he hadn’t anticipated, and perhaps even Immortal Dao Kong hadn’t foreseen it!
But regardless, Immortal Dao Kong had demanded that he obtain the Heavenly Vault Sacred Halberd!
And the best way to sever the connection between a spiritual weapon and its host was… to kill the host.
Lu Wei released his grip on the Heavenly Vault Sacred Halberd for the first time and dropped to the ground.
But his form was now different from a human’s, with both hands supporting himself on the ground, like a reptile.
“To catch it, you directly spirit-transformed. You’re quite desperate. Will Dao Kong reward you handsomely when you return?” Fang Yu raised an eyebrow and said.
“Roar…”
Lu Wei didn’t speak but let out a beast-like roar as he lunged toward Fang Yu!
Bai Ran stepped forward, positioning himself in front of Fang Yu, and threw a punch at the charging Lu Wei!
Lu Wei extended his right hand with silver claws and clashed with Bai Ran’s fist!
“Bang!”
Bai Ran’s fist was forced back!
Lu Wei opened his mouth, revealing sharp teeth, and bit directly toward Bai Ran’s head!
His series of movements were incredibly fast!
But Bai Ran’s reaction was also quick. He leaned his upper body backward and raised his right foot to kick Lu Wei’s abdomen!
“Bang!”
Lu Wei took the kick with only a muffled sound.
Bai Ran, however, felt as if he had kicked a hard rock, his joints aching with pain!
“Roar!”
Lu Wei roared and slapped his palm toward Bai Ran’s chest.
Bai Ran crossed his arms in front of him to block.
“Boom!”
But the power of Lu Wei’s palm was terrifyingly strong.
Bai Ran was propelled like a cannonball, crashing heavily into the wall behind him, causing a large indentation.
“Sigh… this hothead.” Fang Yu turned to look at Bai Ran, who was deeply embedded in the wall with blood at the corner of his mouth, and shook his head helplessly.
“Go look after him, don’t let him fight again,” Fang Yu said to Su Lengyun, who stood nearby with a grave expression.
“Alright.” Su Lengyun immediately retreated.
Fang Yu turned his head to look at Lu Wei, slightly frowning.
He felt that the spirit-transformation of this Source Devourer was at a higher level than those he had encountered before.
The feeling Lu Wei gave him now was no longer that of a human, but completely that of a beast.
“Could spirit-transformation also have different levels?” Fang Yu wondered as he looked at Lu Wei.
“Bang!”
At this moment, Lu Wei’s four limbs tensed, and he suddenly pounced toward Fang Yu’s position!
As he jumped, the ground beneath his limbs shattered!
One can imagine how strong Lu Wei’s power was!
Facing the charging Lu Wei, Fang Yu pulled his right foot back and then kicked out forcefully!
The power and speed of this kick exceeded Lu Wei’s charging speed!
“Bang!”
With a muffled sound, Lu Wei’s abdomen took a heavy hit, and his entire body flew backward!
When he crashed to the ground, the entire floor shook, raising dust all around.
By now, the martial artists in the hall were dumbfounded.
They had originally intended to attack Fang Yu.
But now it seemed fortunate they hadn’t had the chance!
Judging from the exchange between Fang Yu and this monster-like person, the power of Fang Yu’s single kick… was enough to crush all of them!
The man at the Martial Venerable realm who had first caused trouble was now pale with fear, his limbs weak.
He never imagined that Fang Yu, who appeared to be only around twenty years old, would possess such strength!
…
Lu Wei lay in the sunken ground, breathing heavily.
Fang Yu’s kick had shattered several of his ribs in his abdomen.
But for someone who had undergone second-stage spirit-transformation like him, injuries of this degree were nothing and could be repaired quickly.
However… through that kick, his heart had already arrived at an answer.
In his current state, he was very likely no match for Fang Yu.
But Immortal Dao Kong’s orders were like sacred edicts that no one in the Half-Spirit Clan could defy.
Moreover, Lu Wei was one of the high-ranking guards.
Retreat or escape were not options for Lu Wei.
He had to kill Fang Yu and seize the Heavenly Vault Sacred Halberd!
“I have no choice but to do this.” Lu Wei made up his mind and slowly rose from the crater.
At this time, Fang Yu came to the edge of the crater and looked down at Lu Wei.
Lu Wei was now standing upright.
He raised his head, glanced at Fang Yu, then lowered his head, opened his mouth, and bit off the thumb of his right claw!
Instantly!
At the same time, a wave of red blood energy surged from Lu Wei’s body!
“What kind of technique is this?” Fang Yu looked at Lu Wei, surprise flashing in his eyes.
“Third-stage spirit-transformation!”
Lu Wei clenched his fists, a hissing sound emanating from his throat as his aura rose rapidly!
Simultaneously, his body size increased dramatically!
Most noticeable were his limbs, with muscles bulging layer upon layer!
His skin was covered with a thick layer of silver fur.
Including his face, his head…
During this process, Lu Wei’s human characteristics diminished more and more, as if he was truly becoming a spirit beast!
In appearance, Lu Wei now resembled a bear!
And from the perspective of spirit beasts…
“Could this be a Silver Thorn Bear?” Fang Yu recalled this type of spirit beast, whose appearance was very similar to Lu Wei’s current form.
“Spirit-transformation… he’s completely become a spirit beast now.” Fang Yu looked at Lu Wei and shook his head. “If the ultimate goal of spirit-transformation is to turn oneself into a spirit beast, what’s the point of doing this?”
“Roar…”
After the third-stage spirit-transformation, Lu Wei, now completely resembling a Silver Thorn Bear in appearance, raised his head, beat his robust chest with both hands, and let out a long roar.
Then, he looked at Fang Yu, the blood energy surrounding him suddenly increasing.
“Boom!”
Lu Wei charged toward Fang Yu again.
During his flight, the silver fur on Lu Wei’s body stood up, transforming into sharp, pointed silver thorns!
This was the Silver Thorn Bear!
All muscle, using fur as offensive weapons, with strength that was top-tier among spirit beasts!
In an instant, Lu Wei rushed to Fang Yu’s front, his right fist clenched, the entire right arm muscles tense, smashing toward Fang Yu.
This sight alone was enough to make one’s heart falter.
But Fang Yu remained composed, leaping off the ground.
“Boom!”
Lu Wei’s fist struck only air.
But the powerful force seemed to make even space unable to withstand it, causing a distortion.
At this moment, Fang Yu’s figure appeared above Lu Wei’s head.
Lu Wei could sense Fang Yu’s aura but couldn’t respond in time!
Because the weakness of the Silver Thorn Bear was its clumsiness!
Fang Yu raised his left foot and kicked toward the back of Lu Wei’s head.
“Bang!”
With an explosive sound, a cracking noise came from inside Lu Wei’s skull, and his massive body flew forward.
Fang Yu immediately followed up, clasping both fists together in mid-air and smashing them down on Lu Wei’s back!
“Boom!”
The silver thorns on Lu Wei’s back all broke upon contact with Fang Yu’s fists.
