Chapter 545: Qin Chu’s Hearts
Instant Transmission.
One of the authorities absorbed from the first Hero’s avatars. This was the first time he had unleashed its power.
Although Qin Chu’s speed was already extremely fast at this moment, his body moving so swiftly that afterimages could be seen, no matter how fast, compared to Instant Transmission, there was still a subtle difference.
For a battle of this level, even a tiny difference could have a huge impact.
The Lord of Pleasure’s claws were also very fast, but they ultimately missed, his claws uselessly parting the air before him, unable to harm Qin Chu’s body.
At the same time, Qin Chu’s figure had already appeared high in the air.
His hands spread open, black and white energy swirling within his body.
His fingers flicked rapidly, as if playing a piano, each finger entwined with a different energy.
Descending Thunder.
Heavenly Fire Meteor.
Thousand Mile Ice Seal.
Wrath of the Earth Mother Goddess.
Water Tornado.
Sun-Extinguishing Storm!
Meteor Shower!
Twilight of the Gods!
Heaven’s Radiance!
Dark Tide!
Ten fingers.
Ten Super-Tier magic spells, all smashing down from the sky.
Elementalist.
Another plundered Super-Tier Authority. Although with Qin Chu’s current strength, controlling magic power to cast Super-Tier magic was as easy as pie, throwing out three or four simultaneously was also no problem.
But after obtaining the Elementalist authority, Qin Chu’s utilization of magic power and control over elemental energy had clearly reached a new level. Even using multiple different elemental forces simultaneously wouldn’t cause the slightest hitch.
As if all the elements between heaven and earth were under his control, freely manipulated.
Ten Super-Tier magic spells cast simultaneously, what kind of scene was that?
Calling it the end of the world wasn’t an exaggeration.
Burning flames, surging tides, bone-chilling ice, trembling earth, howling wind, meteors falling from the sky, writhing darkness, brilliant Holy Light…
Various, mixed energies, many even completely opposing each other, all smashed down together, directly turning the area around the Lord of Pleasure into a chaotic maelstrom of energy.
The ground shook violently. Within a radius of several thousand meters, everything, whether the unmelted ice, the hard permafrost, or even stones, all turned into fine dust, directly becoming a desert.
Even with the Lord of Pleasure’s strength, he couldn’t withstand this power for a moment and was completely engulfed.
At this moment, Qin Chu alone had become a magic cannon. Even after unleashing ten Super-Tier spells, Qin Chu showed no intention of stopping. Various Super-Tier spells continued to rain down as if they were free.
Rumble… Rumble… Rumble…
Deafening sounds echoed one after another.
Layer after layer of the ground was scraped away. If it were a mountain range here, it would have been completely flattened.
Just the continuous bombardment of various Super-Tier spells, the concentrated impact of the unreleased energy alone, had already caused a violent storm.
Not just the battle area, but even the deeper parts of the icy plain were swept by raging winds. Even the Ice Duchy, far away from here, could clearly feel that despairing roar like a demon’s.
The entire bombardment lasted for about three minutes before gradually subsiding.
The thick dust and smoke on the ground showed no signs of dissipating anytime soon. A while after the Super-Tier magic subsided, with a whoosh sound, a figure broke through the blockade of smoke and rushed directly into the air. Who else could it be but the Lord of Pleasure?
Even after switching to a purely masculine form, the Lord of Pleasure still maintained his elegance and nobility.
But at this moment, the so-called elegance and nobility on the Lord of Pleasure were long gone.
His smooth hair was disheveled, even showing scorch marks in some places. The pair of black wings on his back were almost bald, countless feathers burned away, revealing the charred flesh underneath.
The clothes on his body were long torn to shreds, his handsome face covered in dirt.
Wretched, dirty, filthy.
This was the current, true portrayal of the Lord of Pleasure.
As for real injuries? For an existence like the Lord of Pleasure, they were insignificant, completely recoverable in less than a second. The main damage was to his pride.
He was the dignified Lord of Pleasure! Besides on that blue planet, when had he ever suffered such humiliation? When had he ever been so pathetic?
Especially at the hands of a mortal he completely looked down upon. This made the Lord of Pleasure even more furious.
His handsome face twisted with rage, looking ferocious and savage. His white teeth clenched tightly. With a crack sound, several teeth were actually bitten into pieces.
At this moment, the Lord of Pleasure was like a mad dog. He wished he could pounce on Qin Chu and bite him fiercely.
However, when the Lord of Pleasure rushed out from the raging dust and smoke, Qin Chu’s figure was already gone. That brat had already disappeared to who knew where.
Damn it, damn it, damn it…
Could it be this damned bastard, knowing he wasn’t my opponent, seized the opportunity to flee?
This thought inevitably appeared in the Lord of Pleasure’s mind.
But quickly, the Lord of Pleasure dismissed this speculation, because he saw the World Tree, saw that mass of rotting flesh.
These two had already been sent flying in the previous battle and weren’t taken away by Qin Chu.
If Qin Chu wanted to escape, he should have taken these two with him.
Suddenly, the Lord of Pleasure felt a strange gaze on his back, a gaze as sharp as a knife, even making him feel a faint stinging sensation on his back.
His pupils slightly contracted. Just as he wanted to move, it was already too late.
Qin Chu’s gaze had locked onto the Lord of Pleasure.
“Petrification!”
Another recently plundered Super-Tier Authority took effect.
The Lord of Pleasure’s gaze subconsciously fell on his legs. Accompanied by cracking sounds, a stone-like color instantly appeared on his long legs.
The petrified area rapidly spread from his calves up to his thighs, waist, and chest.
That wasn’t all. Qin Chu’s figure flashed, appearing behind the Lord of Pleasure. His right hand directly grabbed the Lord of Pleasure’s head, pressing down forcefully. Their two bodies, like a meteor falling from the sky, smashed towards the ground at incredible speed.
Over this short distance, their falling speed had already reached an unimaginable level.
The intense friction with the air even produced sounds like colliding metal.
Before the Lord of Pleasure’s eyes, the ground grew closer and closer. With a boom sound, face-first, his entire body made intimate contact with the earth.
Where the two fell, the permafrost instantly collapsed, forming a funnel-shaped depression hundreds of meters in diameter and over a hundred meters deep.
The earthquake-like impact ruthlessly sent everything around flying.
Countless cracks appeared on the Lord of Pleasure’s sturdy body. This impact seemed to have stunned the Lord of Pleasure; for a moment, he didn’t react.
And Qin Chu’s movements showed no sign of stopping. His iron fists rained down on the Lord of Pleasure’s head like raindrops.
Bang, bang, bang, bang…
The sounds continued endlessly.
That speed was comparable to Pegasus Meteor Fist (a move from Saint Seiya).
It was unknown how long he punched. Even Qin Chu felt a bit tired. Looking at the Lord of Pleasure again, he couldn’t help but feel slightly helpless.
Was this guy’s head made of alloy steel? Even alloy steel would have shattered after being hit for so long, right? But the Lord of Pleasure’s head was surprisingly fine, although his hair was mostly gone.
However, this didn’t prevent Qin Chu from unleashing a taunt attack on the Lord of Pleasure.
His fists didn’t stop, and a mocking smile appeared at the corner of his lips: “You said you’re a god?”
“Such a weak god!”
As expected, no matter how severe the physical impact, it couldn’t compare to a mental blow.
Moreover, this wasn’t just mockery, but also pressure.
Qin Chu knew the Lord of Pleasure’s power, due to the celestial curtain’s blockade, would weaken with time. But Qin Chu also understood that no one could guarantee how long this blockade would last.
Once the other six monsters in the Void recovered and tore apart the celestial curtain…
The world’s suppression and rejection of the Lord of Pleasure would decrease, and the Lord of Pleasure’s strength would gradually recover, ultimately reaching a level he couldn’t handle.
Therefore, Qin Chu further provoked the Lord of Pleasure, making this powerful god recklessly unleash and squander his energy.
The Lord of Pleasure’s body trembled violently. Then, his neck, like a rusty chain, while enduring Qin Chu’s non-stop punches, turned with creaking sounds in a rather bizarre manner, directly rotating 180 degrees.
His crimson eyes instantly stared at Qin Chu, filled with extreme madness. An unconcealable, twisted ferocity appeared on his face.
At this moment, endless chaos and loss of control swept over.
Even with Qin Chu’s will, he couldn’t withstand the mental attack suddenly unleashed by a god.
Signs of collapse even began to appear on Qin Chu’s body inch by inch. Beneath his skin, he could feel strange traces wriggling. His body momentarily froze, motionless.
Then came a sound like shattering paper. A crack appeared on Qin Chu’s neck.
The next second, his head rolled off, tumbling quite a distance away.
His skin became like severely damaged glass, suffering from a violent impact, peeling off piece by piece.
Qin Chu’s body, which had been highly reinforced, couldn’t withstand it at all at this moment. But it wasn’t a big problem; the Pseudo Divine Authority, Limit Healing, automatically activated.
The peeling skin on his body quickly regenerated, even the flesh at his severed neck wriggled with granulations.
The Lord of Pleasure wasn’t surprised by this; he hadn’t expected this one attack to take Qin Chu’s life.
But the brief moment of Qin Chu’s loss of control gave the Lord of Pleasure an opportunity. Behind Qin Chu, space rapidly contracted, like a dark, shattered void. Countless long, slippery tentacles surged from the void, entangling Qin Chu’s body.
The Lord of Pleasure attempted to throw Qin Chu into the void. After all, that was his home turf.
But this didn’t last long. Qin Chu’s body was only forced back two steps. Then, a curtain suddenly descended.
This seemingly thin, even translucent curtain, at this moment, displayed astonishing sharpness. With a strange sound, all the tentacles extending from the void were severed.
Then, above, below, and in all other directions around them, curtains descended one after another.
The area where Qin Chu and the Lord of Pleasure were located was completely sealed again by curtains.
The Lord of Pleasure knew it was that detestable bastard, the Goddess of Fate, Moirae, interfering again.
Without that bitch’s help, even with his formidable strength, this Qin Chu was absolutely no match for him.
The double celestial curtain blockade was equivalent to placing a double seal around the Lord of Pleasure, his power compressed once again.
The Lord of Pleasure tried to break this blockade, but Qin Chu wouldn’t give him the chance. Although his head hadn’t fully regenerated yet, one of his arms already lifted on its own, unleashing the Decomposition Divinity.
The arm the Lord of Pleasure extended to tear apart the celestial curtain quickly regressed, from originally thick claws rapidly turning into tender, delicate fingers like a baby’s.
The Lord of Pleasure frowned slightly.
The divinity Qin Chu unleashed was very weak. His previous self could completely ignore it, but not now.
He seemed to realize that using a purely masculine power form to deal with Qin Chu was somewhat difficult. His form began to rapidly shift and transform. In an instant, his originally tall and muscular body had become a graceful figure, wearing a light-colored robe, with an infinitely beautiful face and captivating eyes.
Gender held absolutely no meaning for the Lord of Pleasure.
Ripples began to emanate from his eyes, like illusory images, entangling Qin Chu. Soft moans echoed in Qin Chu’s ears.
The Lord of Pleasure tried to use lust to make Qin Chu succumb.
If it were the normal Qin Chu, or even the Qin Chu of his first life, he might very well have fallen. But the current Qin Chu, also wielding the Lust Authority, had already developed a high resistance to this.
The mental daze only lasted for a brief moment before Qin Chu’s will regained stability.
But this brief moment was enough for the Lord of Pleasure.
With a poof sound, a slender arm pierced through Qin Chu’s chest, grasping his heart.
But the Lord of Pleasure didn’t directly crush Qin Chu’s heart. His completely regenerated head had already proven that physical damage was difficult to pose a threat to Qin Chu.
Only mental attacks could completely eliminate a demigod-level existence.
Methods targeting the mind and soul were the Weaver of Fate’s specialty. But as the god who tempted living beings to fall through lust, the Lord of Pleasure still had some confidence in this aspect.
“Soul Storm!”
A bizarre storm, with Qin Chu’s heart as the center, began to spread through Qin Chu’s body and mind.
However, the Lord of Pleasure didn’t know that although Qin Chu’s chest only had one heart… it wasn’t just one!
