Chapter 1006 (2/2)

Just as they looked at the heavens and earth, suddenly the ancient battlefield shook, and then they saw that the aura of blood and ferocity of the earth surged as if it had materialized into a substance. Finally, in mid-air before them, it condensed into a dark red figure.

The figure seemed to be dressed in blood-red iron armor. He stood tall between heaven and earth, with a vast murderous intent billowing out like a flood. That murderous aura caused the four people to instantly stiffen, as they dared not even move in the slightest.

The four of them had experienced many life and death struggles but had never seen anyone with such a strong murderous aura who must have experienced countless bloody wars and mountains of corpses in their lifetime.

As Mu Chen and the others stiffened, the dark red figure in mid-air lowered his head as his dark red eyes directed an emotionless gaze towards them.

Being watched by that pair of dark red eyes, the four men perked up and had an urge to leave the place immediately. Fortunately, none of them were ordinary people, so they suppressed their urge to escape and remained rooted to the ground.

That dark red figure slowly opened his mouth, and as he spoke, a crimson wind filled with a bloody aura blew in the heavens and earth. “I am Lord Gladiator.”

Ink Blade, Han Shan, and Zong Teng’s expressions twisted, as they exclaimed in disbelief, “Lord Gladiator?”

Mu Chen was extremely unfamiliar with the sovereigns who had appeared in the Land of the Divine Beasts before, thus he turned to Ink Blade and asked, “Who’s that?”

Ink Blade exclaimed with fear and reverence, “It is rumored that this Lord Gladiator was a sovereign who appeared in primordial times in the Land of the Divine Beasts. He was of ordinary talent, but he survived many wars and experienced unimaginable bloodshed. It is said that this man, by virtue of the power of the Complete Earthly Sovereign, was enough to threaten a Heavenly Sovereign!

“When the Extraterritorial Race invaded the Land of the Divine Beasts, Lord Gladiator put his life on the line and killed a powerful character in the Extraterritorial Race equivalent to a Heavenly Sovereign. He sacrificed himself in the process.”

“He died killing a Heavenly Sovereign?”

Mu Chen could not help but be utterly shocked. Although that level was still a bit distant to him, it was also possible to imagine the gap between a Complete Earthly Sovereign and Heavenly Sovereign. However, the man was able to kill a Heavenly Sovereign, demonstrating how ferocious his means were.

Such a character… It was no wonder that even after having fallen thousands of years ago, he still had this majestic aura.

As Mu Chen was still in shock, the dark red figure in mid-air stated indifferently, “Withstand a blow of my fist and you may pass.”

Upon hearing this, the four men’s scalps immediately tingled with dread. In front of them was a terrible existence that could fight on par with a Heavenly Sovereign. Even if it was just a projection that remained over thousands of years, it was absolutely not to be underestimated.

“D*mn it, that’s too much!” Even Han Shan could not help but gnash his teeth. He had no confidence that he could take the punch. Ink Blade also shook his head helplessly, clearly not harboring hope.

Mu Chen’s eyebrows were also knitted tightly into a frown. The difficulty of this fifth floor was far beyond his imagination…

However, no matter what they thought, Lord Gladiator was indifferent and remained unmoved. After concluding his statement, the murderous aura that flowed out of him was all the more horrifying.

His fingers clenched slowly, and his vast and indifferent voice reverberated throughout the battlefield. “I have been through countless wars, and have created my own Super Power, Self-Sacrificing Demonic Fist. If anyone can withstand it, I will teach him the first step.”

D*mn you!

Upon hearing that Lord Gladiator not only intended to strike, but even planned to use his Super Power, the four people present almost couldn’t help but burst out into rude remarks and vulgarities. This fellow is such a bully! Lord Gladiator, why not call yourself Lord Shameless!

However, when the end of the statement rang in their ears, the four were stunned, and then their eyes flushed red.

Super Power?!

To be able to acquire the Super Power created by Lord Gladiator…?!

Although rational thought told them that it was impossible to withstand this punch, the covetous desire caused them not to reject the opportunity outright. It was not that they were not strong enough to resist but because the reward was just too great a temptation!

Even the Earthly Sovereigns would be moved this kind of Super Power, not to mention them! The value of one step of this Super Power alone would exceed the sum of all previous gains!

The four people looked at each other, and they all saw the thick greed in each other’s eyes. No one chose to quit.

“Men die for money, and birds die for food…”

Mu Chen took a deep breath, and then he stared at Lord Gladiator. It was clear that whatever the outcome, he would have to give it a try or give up if he really couldn’t take it.

When Lord Gladiator’s voice fell, he did not say any more nonsense. He clenched his fist, and the murderous rage swelled. He stepped out, and at that step, it was as if there were hundreds of millions of roars reverberating between the sky and the earth. A brutal and ferocious aura, as if piercing through time and space, surged in a rush, causing heaven and earth to tremble.

There was no emotion in his eyes as he watched the four men, and with a slow blow of his fist, an ancient murmur reverberated, shaking heaven and earth, “Sacrificing my Demonic Physique, Destroy the Ancient and Present Times.”
