Devouring the Stars: The Lord of the Sky

Chapter 53 Night Ends, Dawn Breaks, the Beast King is Slain (Part 2)
Prior to this, Lu Jin had indeed never displayed planetary-level strength.

Logically speaking, even if Lu Jin's rank reaches the planetary level, he would still only be a councilor.

But the difference between a member of parliament and the speaker is not how high your official rank is, but how big your fist is.

Lu Jin managed to slay a series of world-class monsters in one night, something even Hong, the First Speaker of the War God Palace, couldn't do.

Therefore, the title of Speaker Lu is perfectly correct.

Soon, after the Yanhuang Satellite transmitted the latitude and longitude coordinates, all the satellites in the high sky over the western Pacific Ocean focused on the Mariana Trench.

At that moment, every television channel on every television station around the world switched to broadcasting images of the deep sea under the rising sun.

At the beginning, apart from the Yanhuang Weifang, other forces around the world were unaware of the successive slaughter of the King-level monsters.

However, as the king-level monsters on his own territory died one after another inexplicably, Lu Jin's hunting operation tonight gradually became known to the major forces.

Prior to this, all the dignitaries from various countries, top executives of major conglomerates, thousands of War Gods from the War God Palace, dozens of members of parliament, and five speakers who received the news, except for a very few with malicious intentions, were all cheering from the bottom of their hearts.

After all, since the Great Nirvana, humanity's situation has been far too dangerous; it's no exaggeration to say that it's like walking a tightrope over a cliff.

Overnight, in just the middle of the night, all the world's king-level monsters were dead, leaving only the Thunder Dragon King and the Octopus Beast King to escape. How could they not cheer and celebrate to their hearts' content?

Even after the fall of the King-level monsters, there are still Lord-level monsters stirring up beast tides all over the world.

But after the unbridled powerful councilors took action, the lord-level monsters in the various beast tides were beheaded one after another, and the beast tides that had just taken shape, or even those that had not yet taken shape, were quickly extinguished.

There were no news reports about the beast tide in the major base cities; the television screens were all live broadcasts of the original king-level monster's lair.

Reporters from various television stations, under the protection of the War God Warriors, recounted the battle traces left on the battlefield in the lair of the King-level monster, using a mix of guesswork and deduction.

The numerous broken scales and fragments of flesh left at the scene indicate which king-level monster was slaughtered.

As for the beast tide?

Compared to the momentous events that have changed the fate of humanity tonight, the beast tide is nothing more than grasshoppers in autumn.

It's no exaggeration to say that even if the president of the United States suddenly kicked the bucket today, at most it would only be reported by American news media, and it wouldn't even be the main topic.

It can be said that at this moment, thanks to the urgent and all-out publicity efforts of the authorities in major cities around the world.

More than 99% of the people on Earth, regardless of whether it is day or night in their time zone, are glued to their screens, watching the seemingly calm sea, waiting to witness the moment when the two great beast kings are defeated.

‘Shua——’

Using the spatial teleportation power of the Kunlun Mirror, Lu Jin, fully armed, appeared directly in the dark seabed.

'Drill hole, freeze!'

His mental energy radiated outwards, ignoring the terrifying water pressure at a depth of ten thousand meters for ordinary people. With a thought, the blades of the Sky-Piercing Shuttle on his back instantly dispersed and converged into a cone.

As twelve golden threads lit up, the drilling cone, wreathed in golden light, shot out from the deep sea towards two enormous black shadows a thousand meters away.

Unlike firearms whose power is greatly reduced underwater, the drilling cone that bursts out is constantly driven by Lu Jin's mental energy.

In terms of attack power alone, as long as it's within the range of his strongest psychic attack, the maximum power that the drilling cone can unleash is the same, whether it travels one meter through water or hundreds or thousands of meters.

The only difference is that the former consumes less mental energy, while the latter requires more mental energy.

"boom--"

The drilling cone, transformed into golden light, arrived in an instant, followed by a muffled explosion that echoed through the dark seabed.

In an instant, fragments of flesh and cartilage splattered, and a large amount of dark blue liquid gushed out.

The octopus head of the Octopus Beast King, which was as big as a small mountain, was instantly drilled by the drilling cone, which had its destructive range reduced, leaving a bloody hole about a meter in diameter that ran through the entire brain.

The next moment, the Octopus King's eyes, as big as a house, dimmed, and its eight giant tentacles, more than 1,500 meters long and more than 20 meters thick, drooped limply, losing all life.

With a mental power three levels higher than that of the Planetary Rank 6 Octopus Beast King, plus an attack amplitude of up to 36 times after activating the Mountain Drill Cone.

Lu Jin only used one move, and the Octopus Beast King, one of the two monster overlords of Earth's monster era, died on the spot.

Upon noticing Lu Jin's appearance and his aim at the Eight-Clawed Beast King, the Thunder Dragon King's entire body was enveloped in purple lightning.

Of course, this wasn't the Thunder Dragon Emperor fighting to the death, but rather fleeing for his life.

If it were truly confident and certain of surviving Lu Jin's attacks, it wouldn't have hesitated to run away more than two hours earlier when Lu Jin instantly appeared not far from it and killed several king-level monster minions right in front of it.

At this moment, lightning crackled around its entire body. Relying on its planetary-level special abilities, the Thunder Dragon Emperor, whose speed was doubled compared to normal, swiftly traversed the ten-thousand-meter-deep seabed, a place virtually devoid of life.

'die!'

Lu Jin naturally wouldn't allow Lei Longhuang to escape.

With a thought, the mountain-drilling cone, transformed into golden light, swiftly pierced through the seawater and caught up with the fleeing Thunder Dragon Emperor in an instant.

Instead of aiming for the head, Lu Jin aimed for the Thunder Dragon Emperor's heart.

"hold head high--"

"boom--"

A muffled explosion accompanied by a dragon's roar rang out, and the drilling cone, carrying a strong penetrating and tearing force, instantly pierced through the hard dragon scales on the Thunder Dragon Emperor's body.

Then the drilling cone pierced through flesh and bones, directly shredding the Thunder Dragon Emperor's heart.

Suddenly, the Thunder Dragon Emperor's speed in traveling through the seabed plummeted. Struggling unwillingly, it plummeted to the seabed and eventually sank into the seabed silt, losing its life force.
