I, who was stabbed to death by Alloy Lu Bu, transmigrated into the Star Soul General

In the heart of the Southern Desert, in another region.

The bloodshed continued unabated, with the remains of ferocious beasts littering the desert. Corpse-eating birds flew in to peck at the remains but died instantly from poisoning caused by the beasts' flesh and blood. Several monsters came to collect the corpses but were instantly devoured by a thunder dragon.

"This... overwhelming feeling... Yes, I'm about to break through!"

Step, step, step…

"Disintegrate." Azure Dragon strode towards the natural sandstone cave, its body slowly dissipating and gracefully landing. It casually cast a sealing array, sat cross-legged within, and began to circulate its energy and regulate its breathing.

Soul power circulates throughout the body, constantly cleansing it. Each cycle forces out impurities, making the body purer and stronger.

This is not an ordinary Star Soul Secret Technique, but a secret technique that incorporates the body-forging techniques of the demon race.

Its title is "Unusual Secret Techniques".

It is the product of the SkyNet system's combined cultivation of both internal and external secret techniques.

A true strongman must cultivate both inner and outer strength; only those who can tear apart a mecha with their bare hands can be considered qualified strongmen.

"call…"

"call……"

His breathing was very steady, and Qinglong was about to fall asleep. He would occasionally kowtow to the air in front of him, but his internal state was completely different from his outward appearance. His internal soul power was extremely surging, constantly impacting his acupoints and further stimulating his body's potential.

"Ow!"

"Gah!!"

"Yeah~"

Boom!

The gradually increasing aura of the Star Soul Masters attracted numerous ferocious beasts through the formation, but no matter how they attacked, they could not shake the thin, cicada-wing-like sealing formation blocking the cave entrance.

"Ok?"

Qinglong frowned, feeling that his soul power was not flowing smoothly. He realized that he had reached the critical point of the late stage of the Heavenly Realm. As long as he broke through the shackles, he could become a "Peak Heavenly Realm" expert.

He is only a hair's breadth away from being a demigod.

Although not as powerful as Quasi-Saints or True Saints, he is more than capable of dealing with ordinary Heavenly Realm cultivators.

His soul power surged, causing his hair and clothes to dance wildly, making a rustling sound.

"Aha…"

His brows furrowed deeper and deeper, as if he were constipated, and he gritted his teeth and groaned. His aura grew stronger over time, and his soul power shone straight into the sky, piercing through the entire sand and stone mountain.

Kaka…

Except for the patch of ground where it sat cross-legged, everything else was blown away by the fluctuations of soul power, forming a giant "⊙" shaped crater. The ferocious beast wanted to take the opportunity to attack, but found that it was blocked by an invisible array.

crackling sounds...

An electric arc pulsed through his body, and he suddenly opened his eyes, which flashed with a sharp light.

"Give me……"

He suddenly stood up, spread his arms, and made no attempt to conceal his powerful aura. His clothes were torn inch by inch by his soul power, revealing an old man's vest printed with a bear's head.

"break!!!"

His aura surged several times over in an instant, and the bear-head vest exploded, revealing his muscular physique.

boom!

The pillar of soul power suddenly thickened, and the ferocious beasts that were nearby were instantly killed by the residual force of the breakthrough.

Kaka!

Cracks kept appearing on the array, and then it shattered like glass.

At this moment, Azure Dragon officially broke through to the peak of the Heavenly Rank.

At that moment, Lü Fengxian, far away at the Yong'an Restaurant, suddenly jolted awake, splashing the wine she had just raised onto Old Xu's face. Her heart skipped a beat. "I'm so sorry, Old Xu, my hand just suddenly cramped up. Please don't take offense..."

"Pfft..." Xu Heming wiped his face, his expression unreadable. "It's alright, it's alright. Continue with your wedding plans. Nothing else matters in the face of important matters..."

"This way and that way..."

"Oh…"

……

"Roar!!!!"

A roar from a ferocious beast of the Earth Rank brought the perspective back to the heart of the Southern Wilderness Desert.

"Uh…"

However, the beast's roar abruptly stopped. The Azure Dragon leaped into the air and delivered a [Rider Kick] that blasted the centipede-like Earth-rank beast to pieces, without even bothering to reassemble its mech.

However, the blood of ferocious beasts is highly poisonous, so it is best not to engage in hand-to-hand combat.

Chichi~

The highly toxic purple blood was constantly corroding the protective aura membrane surrounding the body.

"Is this the power of the Heavenly Peak?" Azure Dragon clenched his fist, then pulled out a jade disc engraved with the character "[Dragon]" from his pocket. "Star Soul Construct... Azure Dragon, obey my command!" (Damn system, why does the decompression password have to be so chuunibyou...)

hold head high! !

As the dragon roared, the Azure Dragon instantly completed its formation. With a clang, its twin blades were drawn, and with a whoosh, a flash of light cut down a large group of ferocious beasts in the blink of an eye. Without even blinking, it cut directly from east to west.

Rivers of blood!

With a burning fighting spirit, under the effect of the title, the fighting spirit feeds back into the soul power, so there is no feeling of fatigue at all, and even the eyes that have not blinked do not feel dry.

"System, could you please turn off [leveling up by grinding monsters] for me temporarily? The experience I gain from these low-level monsters is practically negligible. I'd rather extract their cores and exchange them for some money."

【bite…】

[Successfully closed. You can reopen it at any time.]

"Yoshi... Pshaw, why are you pretending to be a [Taihe person] when Lao Song isn't around..."

Azure Dragon wrapped his arms around his soul power, and with a clang, he joined the ends of two long swords together and threw them toward the Bifang beast horde in the air. Then he drew two more long swords and charged into the insect-shaped beast horde while brandishing his swords.

Combat Skill: Heaven and Earth Sun and Moon Slash!

Combat Skill: Iron Horse and Broken Rainbow!

With his spiritual power, he controlled the "Qiankun Blade," a combination of two long swords, and charged in and out of the Bifang beast horde seven times. With each strike, one Bifang would lose its wings.

啪嗒、啪嗒、啪嗒…

Ferocious beasts kept falling, suffering fatal wounds but not dying.

Only at this point will the quality of the extracted crystal core reach [top grade], which is quite valuable. One crystal core can be exchanged for a truckload of demon slaves, and there might even be some left over.

"System, force me to use Star Soul Beast - External Avatar!"

【bite…】

[Successfully cracked. Please be mindful of your soul power consumption.]

Wow!

Another Azure Dragon appeared instantly, its figure constantly weaving through the dying beast horde. Wherever it passed, crystal cores could not escape its clutches. Its collection efficiency was comparable to Senior Sister Shangguan... well, not quite.

One machine is responsible for killing, and the other is responsible for collecting. With this division of labor, the work is not tiring.

Those in poor condition were sold for money or used in barter transactions.

The high-quality crystal cores will be used to strengthen my [Cloud Bat Legion] and to create some mass-produced mechs suitable for maids and servants.

The Lü family must be armed to the teeth in a short period of time.

Otherwise, let alone the beast tide, it would be a problem whether we could even help Old Xu find a wife.

"call…"

With a long sigh, Azure Dragon sat atop the pile of ferocious beast corpses, exhaling a large amount of white smoke from its mouth. With a wave of its hand, it retrieved its avatar along with the crystal core. "Sigh, to prevent damage to the crystal core, I suppressed almost ninety percent of my power. It's exhausting..."

"Damn... now I finally understand how exhausting that fight with Sass, where I took on seven opponents at once, really was..."

The consumption of mental energy is terrifying; if you're not careful, you could destroy the crystal core along with it.

"Roar--!"

From afar came a ferocious roar, and looking in the direction of the sound, there were four Heavenly Rank Qiongqi ferocious beasts.

"Four Heavenly Ranks?"

The Azure Dragon didn't even bother to get up. He simply raised his right hand and gently slashed downwards, uttering the word "fall." A dark green thunderbolt struck, instantly killing four Heavenly Rank Great Fiends.

Previously, Qiongqi required a combination of various formations to defeat, but now it's like cannon fodder.

"broken!"

"I forgot to activate [Level Up by Grinding Monsters]... Damn it... My Heavenly Rank EXP pack!"

"No—!!!" He roared to the sky, and thunder roared incessantly.

P.S.: The fact that the blood of ferocious beasts is poisonous is a personal setting in this story.
