Legend of the Mythological Genes

Chapter 247: Killing People’s Hearts?

Translator: Lordbluefire Editor: Lordbluefire

Killing hearts!

The words of the Ultimate Killer King were like knives that wanted to pierce through Feng Lin’s soul, slaughtering his heart.

He laughed gloomily.

“Among all the martial arts in the universe, all of them can be countered. Only what exists in the heart cannot be broken. No matter how powerful a technique is, it cannot be compared to killing the hearts of people. As the medical technology is already extremely well-developed, as long as medical treatment was applied in time, all kinds of grievous injuries would be healed. There’s only one flaw...if the heart of a person died, no medicine would be able to save him. Even if his body was saved, he would be nothing more than a zombie. So what does it take to kill the hearts? I’ve massacred countless people, how can you even begin to comprehend the concept of killing hearts? And now you actually dared to fight me, truly courting death!”

Feng Lin laughed coldly. “The fame of the Ultimate Killer King spreads through the world, and I have long since known about it. If you are in your peak condition, I will definitely not dare to antagonize you. But the you right now, how many percentages of strength do you have left?”

“Mhm?” After the sore spot in his heart was poked, the Killer King’s eyes narrowed. A cold smile appeared on his face. “Do you think that I could massacre so many people is due to my cultivation alone? Although the Southern Milky Way Galaxy is the weakest region, there are still many powerful cultivators there. Above me, there are still grand cultivators, adepts, and elite adepts...they are countless in number! But why can’t they massacre millions, but I manage to do so? Although I’m currently not at my peak stage, my capabilities are more than sufficient to kill you!”

“Oh?” Feng Lin calmly smiled. “Whether you can do so or not, everything will be made clear once we fight.”

He no longer wasted words with this person. In any case, they already had a grudge to the point of ‘either you die or I die’. Since this was the case, why talked so much?

Feng Lin was the weaker one. Yet, he took the initiative to rush forward. The metal cudgel in his hand waved and transformed into countless cudgel-images that enveloped the Killer King.

Asura Tossing the Elephant!

The hands of the Killer King clenched as he slammed out with them.

The two of them clashed and both respectively retreated.

Feng Lin was forced to retreat by ten steps while the Killer King only retreated by three steps.

Feng Lin wasn’t shocked but was pleasantly surprised instead.

If the Killer King was in his peak state, he would surely not be a match for him in a head-on confrontation. In fact, he wouldn’t have any chance at all.

But now after exchanging a blow, although he was in an inferior position, the disparity wasn’t that great between them.

The Blood Sea Altar of the Killer King was already destroyed, and he was weakened to the max due to the backlash. Under his heavy injuries, there was no way the Killer King would be able to fight a protracted battle!

Hence, Feng Lin’s chance of victory greatly increased!

Heart Monkey Empowerment!

Feng Lin activated the Heart Monkey Force to strengthen himself. With the increase in power, he leaped into the air and unleashed an ordinary-looking stance named the ‘Strength splitting apart Mt. Hua.’ It wasn’t dazzling at all, using brute force as its base.

This was a clash of strength against strength. As expected, the burden on their bodies was extremely huge as they attempted to probe the injuries of each other.

Lock!

The Killer King adopted a yoga posture that contained the dao of the universe. Formless shackles appeared in the air, causing a restriction effect on Feng Lin and stiffening his movements.

Break!

Feng Lin’s body bent like an arched bow stretched to the max as he bounced back up with incredible might.

Kacha!

The formless shackles broke apart.

The Killer King’s yoga attack was broken. This locking technique that had always been effective up until now had actually failed.

Yet, Feng Lin didn’t feel too surprised that he could break the attack.

No matter how strong a power was, there would always be a limit.

Heart Monkey Force used idealistic force to influence the material world. It allowed him to transform, possess extreme knowledge about astrology and geographic, and even shift the position of the stars. If it was strengthened to a certain extent, there was nothing it couldn’t do.

Feng Lin used the Heart Monkey Force to empower himself, and his strength was magnified by three times. How could his movements be so easily bound?

And the Killer King was already injured heavily. His strength was far from his peak; he only had about one-third of his strength remaining.

Originally, Feng Lin’s strength couldn’t be compared to the Ultimate Killer King at all, but right now, after his strengthening and the weakening of the Killer King, they were roughly equal. Actually, Feng Lin even seemed to possess an advantage.

The Killer King was a major character at the grand completion-phase of the elite cultivator realm. If there weren’t any appropriate opportunities, how would Feng Lin be able to kill him?

Although Asura Planet was a famous hell planet in the Southern Milky Way Galaxy, given how large this planet was, how could there be no cultivation resources here?

Leaving aside the fact that the Killer King was supposedly a prisoner here, in truth, everyone knew that he was the boss of this planet. So, how could he not have any wondrous treasures on him?

The examiners set the second round of exams on this planet, using the death criminals and aberrations to test the exam candidates.

But on the other hand, were they not using the exam candidates to kill these death criminals?

These death criminals might have some cultivation resources on them. If the exam candidates could kill them, they would be able to gain the resources of the death criminals and use the resources to enhance their cultivation.

Those examiners did this because they wanted the students to experience a bloodbath and nurture their baleful auras, eliminating the weaker ones and leaving only true geniuses behind.

Those that looked strong on the appearance but weak on the inside would be weeded out. It was impossible for them to survive.

Although the technology of humanity was very developed and they occupied the entire Milky Way Galaxy, but in truth, this amount of territory was merely considered a drop of water in the vast ocean of the universe. There were countless terrifying races viewing humanity as prey; countless streams of currents flowed in the dark due to the difference of interest of various powerful parties—danger was everywhere!

Only geniuses who had been tempered by the bloodbath of a thousand battles could be considered the real geniuses to humanity.

If not, no matter how high their cultivation bases were, as long as their will wasn’t strong enough, they wouldn’t dare to fight to the bitter end against the alien races. Ultimately, they could only be considered slightly stronger trash.

Hence, the hidden meaning behind the second round of exams was truly thought-provoking.

Suppress!

The metal cudgel smashed down, aiming for the Killer King’s head. However, the Ultimate Killer King adopted another posture. His arms lifted like a divine being propping up the sky, actually managing to halt the cudgel’s momentum.

Feng Lin discovered that the Killer King’s body seemed to be a pipe that channeled the force of his cudgel into the ground. Right now, there was completely no power in his cudgel strike.

Yoga was an ancient martial art. It classified the body into three meridians and seven arteries, allowing the user to connect with heaven and earth. In the legends, one could even connect themselves with a god and obtain divine might.

In Sanskrit Mythology, the Asura King assiduously cultivated yoga for the sake of fighting against the heavenly gods. In the end, he finally understood the true essence of yoga, and his divine might increased greatly, allowing him to be victorious in that war.

The Killer King was using asura yoga, which allowed him to connect with the majestic force of heavens and earth. It was extraordinarily profound.

Feng Lin’s cudgel danced in the air, creating numerous shadows with his immense speed and strength.

The Killer King adopted postures after postures, occasionally bending his back, spinning like a top, and standing erect like a pillar... This martial art had a completely different concept from Huaxia’s martial arts, yet its defensive prowess was strong and its offensive prowess was bizarrely powerful.

Bang, bang, bang!

The body of the Killer King was as tough as steel. He dared to fight against the metal cudgel with his flesh, causing the deafening sounds to ring out upon impact.

Feng Lin also had no way to capitalize on his advantage despite him being slightly stronger.

After the Blood Sea Altar was shattered, the Killer King’s constitution was heavily injured. However, his ferociousness didn’t diminish and he focused his attention on defense. It wouldn’t for easy for Feng Lin to break through his stance.

His cudgel arts were fearsome as he depended on brute force to break the defense, but he wasn’t able to do so.

Since this was the case, why didn’t Feng Lin concentrate his strength into a single point and try to pierce the Killer King’s defense?!

Feng Lin’s heart stirred. The cudgel in his hand transformed into a long sword.

Immortal Slaying Sword Imprint!

His wrist flicked as the entire strength of his body gathered on one point before erupting forth with explosive might.

This seemingly ordinary sword actually contained profound intents within it. The muscles on his finger moved. And with the empowerment of the Heart Monkey Force, the sharpness of the sword was amplified and even contained a hint of divine charm of the Legendary Immortal Slaying Sword.

The sword dao was always the most offensive kind of daos.

The sword stabbed out, containing an absolute slaughtering might that could crush everything.

(This sword...?!)

Fear arose in the Killer King’s heart. The power of this sword was extremely terrifying; its speed was so fast that the Killer King had no way to evade.

His eyes narrowed as he adopted even more yoga postures. His body curled up and his palms were in the position of being ready to be pressed together, resembling two huge doors about to close as he attempted to block the external attack.

BANG!

His palms actually managed to catch the sword!

Chi!

The sword force was obstructed but the piercing aura managed to penetrate the Killer King’s shoulder, completely crippling one of his arms as fresh blood flowed.

The Killer King’s facial features were scrunched together. He felt intense heart-piercing pain.

Since he managed to wound the Killer King, Feng Lin didn’t intend to stop. He used the Immortal Slaying Sword Imprint to control the sword, allowing the sword force to expand. Numerous sword flowers manifested.

A sword light flashed, leaving behind numerous wounds on the Killer King’s body. His blood dripped from his wounds, dyeing the ground red.

“Brat, you actually injured me!” the Killer King roared.

Feng Lin ignored him. Villains would always mouth off before their death.

(Why is there still a need to talk nonsense now? Kill!)

Feng Lin leaped into the air, performing the Sword Dance of the White Ape. His techniques were marvelous to the extreme as he pierced the sword toward the Killer King again.

The Killer King had no way to block it. He hurriedly retreated and was in a very sorry sight. His aura was clearly weakened.

Just when Feng Lin was preparing to finish him off, the Killer King suddenly laughed in a low voice. “Do you know? The path I’m walking on is the Asura King Mythology Path. The Asura gene is a variation-grade transcendent gene and has the ability to transform the user into a true asura!”

With his life on the line, the Killer King didn’t seem to be worried at all. He was actually laughing.

Feng Lin’s heart tensed. Did the Killer King still have something up his sleeves?

He didn’t hesitate and instantly slashed down with his sword. But all of a sudden, the ground trembled as numerous red-colored stone pillars rose from the ground, trapping Feng Lin within and forming a giant formation.

“Brat, do you know why I’m known as the Ultimate Killer King? Because... everyone I’ve killed was tortured to death by me. No matter how good the medical technology is, nothing can save them. Next, you will also face boundless terror and die a miserable death while howling, struggling and filled with despair inside the hell I’ve created for you!” The Ultimate Killer King laughed sinisterly. Sounds of souls wailing could actually be heard, wanting to pull Feng Lin inside this hell and forever barring his reincarnation.

Feng Lin’s heart involuntarily pounded. However, he wasn’t distracted from his goal and continued to attack the Killer King.

No matter what tricks the Killer King wanted to use, as long as he killed the Killer King before he could finish his move; no matter how powerful the Killer King’s ultimate technique was, it would also be useless.

After all, a technique was not a living existence, and only living humans could execute it. If the Killer King died, everything would be solved.

A sword thrust out as fast as white lightning, aiming for the Killer King’s throat.

“HAHAHA!”

The Killer King abruptly moved, coincidentally dodging Feng Lin’s killing strike. His steps quickened as he violently stomped on the ground. The bloody baleful aura continuously gathered as the wails of ghostly souls could be heard in the atmosphere, growing louder and louder.

The earth trembled and split apart. Black qi and smoke gushed out, filling the area and causing the sky to turn completely dark.

The stone pillars around him started trembling, causing a blood-like hue to paint the dark skies red. The aura enveloped the entire area he was in. The surroundings became a terrifying domain as the world changed.

Streaks of blood could be seen arcing through the sky. Within the domain, no other living creatures existed; an aura of death was prevalent here.

Feng Lin felt as though his sense of space and time was turned topsy-turvy. His heart sank to the bottom and when he recovered his senses, he discovered that the area he was in had completely changed. He was now in hell.

The stone pillars were still around him. It appeared like the King Yama’s Hall of Hell had ascended to the mortal world.

“Welcome to my world, the eighteen levels of hell...!
