Achieving Demon Godhood from Unlocking Talents

The green Telekinesis was intercepted and detonated mid-air.

BOOM! BOOM!

The ground shook. A shallow crater, two or three meters wide, was blasted into the cement plaza, sending gray debris flying everywhere.

The brief visual obstruction broke most people's line of sight. Escorted by Chen Xiao and the others, Luo Xuan's group hurried along, sticking close to the walls of the cement building as they rushed toward the passage behind them.

"Dammit, trying to run?"

At the rear, Ma Biao's eyes narrowed, a flash of killing intent within them.

Relying on the defensive boost from his muscle enhancement, he took a punch from Lu Chao head-on. Using the momentum, he slid forward, making a beeline for the group of agents to cut them off.

But then—

"Get back!"

ROAR!

A thunderous sound erupted, like the roar of a beast.

The sudden sonic Secret Technique silenced the entire circular plaza. Everyone's ears were ringing, their minds violently shaken.

Ma Biao, being the closest, was momentarily stunned. His movements froze, and he could only watch as Lu Chao flashed over in pursuit, throwing a punch.

THUD!

The punch landed.

The savage power of the triple Stacked Force smashed into his head.

A ring of white air exploded from the point of impact.

Even with his muscle-enhanced head protection, Ma Biao was seeing stars. His head tilted, and he staggered.

Seizing the opportunity, Lu Chao's eyes turned frigid. The left fist he had been charging at his waist suddenly shot out like a flood dragon bursting from the sea, poised to inflict a heavy blow.

However, at the critical moment...

SWOOSH!

A sharp blade wreathed in Qi Flame tore through the air, descending from above.

The sound of it ripping through the air was like a sniper bullet—unusually fast, far quicker than before.

Even with the Rock Martial Skill protecting him, Lu Chao felt a chill.

WHOOSH!

With a flash, he sidestepped and retreated.

A half-inch-long black blade stabbed into the cement ground, and the silver-blue Qi Flame covering its surface abruptly exploded.

BOOM!

The ground shook as blade fragments shot out in all directions.

A shallow crater appeared on the spot, thick smoke billowing from it.

The blow, like a howitzer shell, made Lu Chao's pupils contract. The chaotic explosion of blue Qi Flame once again sparked a sense of familiarity.

He looked up at the sky again.

The figure in the blue hoodie came into view, a black mask concealing their entire face.

The person was still standing on a rooftop seven or eight stories high, looking down on the battlefield with the indifference of a Thunder Eagle searching for prey.

Not only was he using these powerful long-range attacks to pin down Leader Wu, but he was even diverting his attention to interfere with the other Superpower Level fights.

'It's you?'

A suspicion surfaced in his mind, growing stronger and stronger.

Lu Chao's eyes were frigid as he stared intently at the figure.

WHOOSH!

In that brief moment of intervention, Ma Biao, who had been knocked back earlier, shook his head and quickly recovered. His eyes wide with fury, he charged through the smoke, coming to kill him.

The muscles on his right arm swelled, veins bulging, until it was twice the thickness of a normal person's thigh. It seemed to have granted him even greater strength, enough to shatter steel alloys.

At the same time, Lu Chao felt a chill creep up on him, as if some kind of crisis was rapidly approaching from the outside.

THUD!

Instantly, their Fist Seals collided!

Solidified Qi Flame rock armor covered Lu Chao's arm. The ground beneath his feet cracked and shattered, sending debris flying in all directions, piercing through the windows on the first and second floors of the nearby building.

It seemed as if the danger had passed.

But Lu Chao's eyes scanned his surroundings frantically. Aided by his powerful dynamic vision and the Observation Method, he instantly saw every single one of Ma Biao's muscle movements.

He also saw the other Superpower Level individuals nearby.

He saw the woman in the green gauze dress blocking Yao Jin, and the man in blue who, along with 'Qian Hao,' was pinning down Leader Wu, throw another Qi Flame blade.

He clearly captured everyone's movements, his keen five senses amplified to their absolute limit.

'Something's wrong!'

However, his eyes narrowed. The chill in his heart remained.

The next instant, Lu Chao whipped his head around, looking toward Luo Xuan and the others who had already rushed out of the circular building and were retreating down the rear passage.

The passage was flanked by dense cement buildings, forming a winding concrete alley.

And right now, amidst the panic of a sudden attack that had sent all the bystanders and neighbors scrambling into their homes, something was off.

At a corner in that alley, there was a maintenance worker in a black uniform, inspecting a pipe running along the outside of a cement wall.

Even standing still, he was getting closer and closer to the fleeing Chen Xiao and his group.

"Ah Xiao, stop!"

Lu Chao's expression changed as he roared.

Chen Xiao and the others halted, but the maintenance worker in the black uniform seemed not to have heard, and he began walking toward them.

Witnessing this, Lu Chao heard the rush of wind assault his ears, like a heavy hammer smashing through the air, aimed straight for his chest.

WHOOSH!

Without a second thought, Lu Chao used his Rock Martial Skill to take a heavy punch from Ma Biao head-on.

THUD!

A muffled explosion rang out as his blood and qi roiled.

The Qi Flame rock armor on his chest caved in slightly, and his feet shattered the cement, sinking into the ground.

In that brief instant, Lu Chao suppressed all his discomfort, used the force of the blow to create distance, then stamped his foot and shot forward, rushing out.

"Stop him!"

'Qian Hao' shouted coldly from a distance. The man in blue on the tall building and Ink Green Rattan, who was unleashing her Telekinesis, both narrowed their eyes and looked over.

The rampaging Ma Biao, who had been charging and punching, was clearly a step too slow, like a berserk giant with no outlet for its rage.

Lu Chao, moving like a swimming dragon, sprinted forward. Sticking to the vertical wall of the cement passage like a Gecko, he moved unhindered, leaving a trail of afterimages as he dashed toward the group of agents.

"I'll do it!"

Ink Green Rattan's expression turned grim as the ring of Telekinesis around her body suddenly exploded outward.

RUMBLE!

The violent energy impact, like an airburst, knocked Yao Jin back at once.

Then, leaving an afterimage in her wake, she shot off to intercept Lu Chao in the rear passage.

Just as she was about to catch up...

CLANG!

The ring of a sword echoed as a strand of deep blue Qi Flame flashed past.

Yao Jin, who should have been knocked back, suddenly flashed forward to Lu Chao's side. Her aura skyrocketed, as if she had activated some kind of enhancement-type Martial Skill or Secret Technique.

"Leader Lu, leave them to me!"

Yao Jin cried out, the Tidal Qi Flame around her body erupting.

Amidst the sound of crashing waves, a flash of her sword was seen, annihilating the incoming telekinetic impact.

At the same time, she planted her feet on the cement ground, turned her sword sideways like a shield, and blocked Ma Biao's heavy punch.

DONG!

The silver longsword, made of manganese steel alloy, shuddered and bent slightly, emitting a clear ringing sound.

As a fellow Superpower Team Leader, she believed herself a match for any man.

The sight of her single-handedly blocking two Limit-Breaking Level warlord commanders made 'Qian Hao's' face darken. The young man in blue on the tall building also changed his plan and leaped from the rooftop.

WHOOSH!

He seemed to transform into a bolt of lightning, leaving a trail of silver-blue arcing afterimages as he stepped on the balconies and outdoor staircase railings of the cement building, charging toward the rear passage.

In the space of a single breath, he reached the ground. Wreathed in a blue Qi Flame, he looked like a manifestation of divine might, intending to bypass Yao Jin and attack Lu Chao's retreating back.

"HRAAAGH!"

THUD!

Leader Wu planted his feet, and a white Qi Flame erupted from his body, soaring to the sky.

Forcing back the persistent 'Qian Hao' with another punch, he roared, "Leader Lu, leave it to us!"

ROAR!

He threw his right fist, his Qi Flame taking the form of a dragon.

A white pillar of qi shot across the air, carrying a powerful shockwave. It intercepted the young man in blue, forcing him to change his move and defend.

Amidst the rumbling sonic booms of the shockwaves, silver-blue lightning and green Telekinesis flashed and intertwined. Silver sword light and white Qi Flame erupted in a contest of power.

The Qi Flames and energy fluctuations of the six Superpower Level combatants clashed wildly.

Furious shouts echoed through the billowing dust, and the massive cement buildings trembled and swayed.

This all happened in the blink of an eye, in just a few short breaths.

Catching a glimpse of the ferocious battle behind him, Lu Chao felt an inexplicable emotion rise in his heart.

'Unless it's absolutely necessary, I can't use my Titan's Power in front of so many people. I can't risk exposing my secret.'

At this very moment, his gaze shifted forward.

In the alley ahead, the group of agents had been ambushed. The maintenance worker in the black uniform had shown his true colors, sending several superpower captains flying into walls with casual palm strikes.

Beneath their torn black combat uniforms, each had a conspicuous, bloody Palm Seal.

This sight made Lu Chao's eyes turn completely glacial.

As his figure shot forward, he stared intently at the maintenance worker in black.

His Qi Flame erupted, and the rock armor enveloped his body.

Without hesitation, he entered a Frenzy State, his speed exploding once more as he charged toward his target.

"Li Gusha!"
