Chapter 239: Who’s Beating Up Who? The Titan Self-Destructs

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Gales wreaked havoc above the clouds as fissures formed in rapid succession, forming a hellish sight of great dishevelment that sent torrential tidal waves churning in the spectators’ hearts.

Fifteen against one!

They were obviously ganging up on the other party by outnumbering him!

It was obviously very unfair to Meng Lei!

It was also obviously a sure-win match!

Yet the outcome caught one off-guard. Meng Lei fought singlehandedly against great numbers, yet he simply overpowered the Titan half-deities. On top of that, the more he fought, the more valiant and wilder he became!

“Is that really a goddamn human?”

“How can a human be that strong?”

“A monster! He’s a monster!”

The Thunder Titan Emperor felt chills all over him. He’d initially thought Meng Lei doomed for sure once the grandmasters showed up, but who’d have thought that things would actually develop into a state such as this!

“Old dogs, is that all you’ve got?” Meng Lei raised his head and guffawed into the sky. “If that’s all you’ve got, then all of you are destined to meet your ends today!”

“Kill!”

“Kill him!”

“Use your Divine Techniques!”

After a series of clashes, the Titan half-deities could clearly feel the difference between Meng Lei’s and their divine bodies. At once, they hurriedly retreated from the battle range and cast their Divine Techniques!

“Divine Technique: Divine Wind of Annihilation!”

“Divine Technique: Judgment of Life!”

“Divine Technique: Meteor Drop!”

“Divine Technique: Absolute Zero!”

“Divine Technique: Ultimate Alchemy!”

“…”

In an instant, more than ten Divine Techniques rushed toward Meng Lei—divine winds that could crush everything, wooden vines that could devour one’s life force, meteors that could destroy the world…

They bombarded Meng Lei as if wanting to rip him into shreds, smash him into a bloody pulp, freeze him into an ice sculpture, or transmute him into gold…

Boom!

At the same time, a destructive wave of power of divinity also reverberated through the surroundings, instantly sweeping through the entire mountain peak and throwing out the spectators once again!

When the lingering waves finally dispersed, the Titan half-deities and spectators hastily looked over. However, Meng Lei was nowhere in sight—he had vanished into thin air as though he had never been there in the first place!

“I-is he dead?”

One of the spectators’ eyes widened.

Someone replied uncertainly, “He’s… probably dead? Who would be able to survive those Divine Technique attacks capable of destroying everything?”

The Titan half-deities didn’t let down their guard in the least—because they knew very well that Meng Lei hadn’t died. In fact, their attacks just now hadn’t struck him at all!

Additionally, even if the attacks really had struck him, considering the degree of durability that Meng Lei had exhibited with his divine body, it was impossible for him to have been blasted into smithereens and not even a single broken piece of himself left behind anyway.

Suddenly, an elderly Titan half-deity shouted, “Look out, everyone!!”

“Look out? Would there even be any use to doing that?”

Meng Lei appeared right in front of the elderly Titan half-deity out of the blue and dished out a series of 100 machine gun-like punches, his little fists bombarding the half-deity wildly!

“Aaahhhh!”

For a while there, sad, shrill cries that sounded like the wailing of vengeful spirits from hell rang out all the way up into the clouds, causing everyone’s scalps to go numb and chills to run down their spines!

What would it feel like to be bombarded by that many punches? Would it hurt very badly?

Hurt?

The elderly Titan, currently being subjected to the little fists’ pounding, was the clearest on how it felt. Every punch of Meng Lei’s carried vast, enormous force capable of devastating everything, and every single punch rendered him dizzy and woozy!

As 100 little punches came smashing toward him like a raging storm, the elderly Titan half-deity felt as if every single part of his body was hurting—his face, neck, arms, chest, bones…

Pain!

Pain!

Pain!

It was even more painful than going into labor!

At last, when all the pain and agony finally ceased, the elderly Titan also went flying out. All everyone could see was just a pile of minced meat…

The elderly Titan had also ended up the same way as Hyman, the old high priest—smashed into bits!

“I-is he dead?”

“Yet another grandmaster has died?”

Fear and trepidation filled the spectators. Was there even anything that could possibly be more astounding than personally witnessing a half-deity being pounded into minced meat?

Not at all!

Nothing could be even more astounding than that!

“Why? Why is he so strong?” The Thunder Titan Emperor murmured to himself.

By this point, he could already tell that Meng Lei wasn’t battling at all. Rather, he was… fooling around!

That’s right! He was fooling around!

If he wanted to, Meng Lei could kill any of the grandmasters anytime, anywhere.

Yet he had refrained from doing so, choosing instead to play a game of cat-and-mouse—he was toying with the grandmasters!

The Titan half-deities could also sense it. As fury welled up within them, they also felt a deep sense of helplessness at the same time!

How were they supposed to fight when that knave was so strong?

“He’s actually still alive!”

The moment Meng Lei noticed that no system notifications had come in despite him killing the elderly Titan, he knew right away that the old coot also had another divine incarnation.

Meng Lei couldn’t help but turn toward the remaining 14 half-deities. True enough, he discovered a half-deity that looked identical to the elderly Titan from before among them!

“You… You’ve actually killed my wind-elemental divine incarnation!”

The elderly Titan half-deity was so furious that even his eyes had turned red.

“Do you know how much effort and energy I exhausted and how much hard work I had put in before I had successfully forged that divine incarnation? And now it’s gone! All gone!”

The elderly Titan half-deity had gone totally berserk. “Knave, you’ve completely cut off my path to deification and caused my tens of thousands of years of cultivation to go up in smoke! I want you dead! Dead!!”

The Titan half-deity charged right up to Meng Lei. His blood and energy flow surged and churned around him, and then he suddenly exploded!

Boom!

As though a 1,000-megaton hydrogen bomb going off, the elderly Titan half-deity instantly blew up into a cloud of bloody mist. Waves of incredibly destructive power spread into the surroundings, instantly engulfing Meng Lei before continuing to engulf the rest of the place!

“Elder Frank!!”

Aghast, the remaining 13 half-deities hastily darted into the distance.

A half-deity’s self-destruction carried a terrifying level of destructiveness. Even they would perish for sure if they were to be caught up in it!

The wild, violent energy waves engulfed the summit, the Divine Titan Temple, as well as the 10,000-feet-tall Titan Spiritual God statue!

As for the spectators that had fled into the distance, none of them were spared, either! All of them were also engulfed!

…

A light breeze blew, gradually dispersing the smoke and dust pervading the air and once again revealing the square. The Divine Titan Temple was gone while the place had been reduced to rubble!

The 10,000-feet-tall Titan Spiritual God had also collapsed and was lying on its side on the ground.

“Why did you have to go so far, Elder Frank?”

The 13 Titan half-deities floated in mid-air in the distance, all of them rather filled with grief and lament.

At the same time, the spectators who were fortunate enough to survive also looked toward the area with expressions of fear and horror.

They had clearly already been a great distance away, yet the greater half of them had still died from the explosion!

They practically couldn’t get any unluckier than that!

“Cough, cough! Is that knave dead?”

The Thunder Titan Emperor was also one of the lucky survivors. The current him looked extremely worse for the wear. His clothes were torn and tattered, and he was covered in blood after suffering grievous injuries.

He didn’t have the leisure to pay much attention to that, however. His eyes were fixed on the other side, urgently wanting to know whether or not Meng Lei was dead—that was what he was the most concerned about at the moment!

“Where’s that knave?”

“I don’t know!”

“Just how fearsome is the destructiveness resulting from Elder Frank’s self-destruction? That knave was even right in the epicenter of the explosion, too. There would practically be no justice in this world if he could survive even that!”

“That makes sense!”

“What a shame about Elder Frank, though…”

The Titan half-deities were terribly mournful.

Elder Frank was the oldest and most senior half-deity among them. Many of them had received his guidance in the past. Upon seeing Elder Frank end up like that, how could they not be heartbroken?

“Bubbles, your partner-in-crime is dead!”

Hazeus’ eyes bore coldly into Bubbles, a hint of brutality coming over them. He said, “And now, it’s your turn! Don’t worry. I won’t kill you so easily!”

“Dead?” As if he were staring at a fool, Bubbles broke into a grin and said, “You’re overthinking things, Hazeus!”

“What do you mean?” Hazeus’ countenance darkened.

“Master’s strength is something far beyond your imagination!” Bubbles smiled proudly and said, “Attacks of that scale earlier can’t hurt Master!”

“Bubbles, you overestimate his abilities!”

Hazeus let out an icy snort and said, “Elder Frank is a pinnacle-level half-deity. How powerful do you think his divine body was? No-one in Heaven’s Vault Continent can be spared from his self-sacrificing move of self-destruction!”

“Heaven’s Vault Continent?”

Bubbles let out a scornful and derisive laugh. Just as he was about to mock him mercilessly, he suddenly spied someone coming toward him in the distance. Right away, he broke into a grin and said, “Open your goddamn eyes wide and take a good look, Hazeus. Who do you think that is?”

A puzzled Hazeus turned around, only to become thunderstruck right away. He froze up and stammered, “H-he… isn’t dead!”

“As if he would be!”

Bubbles seized the opportunity to throw a punch at Hazeus. Unable to duck in time, Hazeus was hit on the chin. Dizziness came over him at once as the blood and energy flow in his body churned.

“Die!”

Upon successfully striking him, Bubbles’ attacks became even more fervent. They engulfed Hazeus like a raging storm as every attack landed on him!

“You bastard!”

Hazeus was shocked and furious, but what frightened him even more was Meng Lei himself. Meng Lei was actually still alive! In fact, he was completely unscathed! Even his clothes and hair were still neat and tidy!

“How can this be? Wasn’t he in the center of the explosion?” Hazeus couldn’t understand how that had happened at all!

The Titan half-deities were just as confused as him. They stared at Meng Lei, who had reappeared before their eyes, as though they were staring at a ghost. Never mind the fact that he was still alive, but what was up with him being completely unscathed?

“Sorry to disappoint all of you!”

Meng Lei had a mocking expression on his visage. He had already resumed his human form by this point and was even currently holding a fried meatball skewer in his hand.

“You… How exactly did you manage to do that?”

A Titan half-deity clenched his fists, his countenance full of indignation and disbelief.

“Because I can teleport!”

With a slight smile, Meng Lei said, “I took that little pocket of time just now to go to a restaurant in the city and even bought a meatball skewer. It actually tastes pretty good!”

Meng Lei waved the meatball skewer in his hand lightly as he spoke. Then, he began to eat it with relish!

“Teleport?”

The Titan half-deities fell silent at once. At the same time, while hopelessness filled them, a thought also arose in their minds: What a freak!

Meng Lei was no different from a freak in their eyes. Not only did he possess such a monstrous divine body, but he could even teleport! How were they supposed to goddamn fight someone like that?

It shouldn’t go that far even if he were cheating!

“Alright! Now that the meatballs are gone, it’s about time this battle should end, too!”

Meng Lei polished off the last meatball and casually tossed the bamboo skewer aside. Then, he brought out a handkerchief and wiped his hands before he asked, “I’ll ask you guys something now—do you wish to live or do you wish to die?”

The 13 Titan half-deities shouted in a low voice, “What exactly do you want?”

“It’s very simple!”

In a calm and peaceful tone of voice, Meng Lei replied, “If you wish to live, then hand over your divine spirit origin energy and submit to me. If you wish to die, then… go to hell like those two old fogeys just now!”

“How dare you humiliate us, you knave!”

A Storm Titan half-deity flew into a rage. “The noble Titans never submit to anyone. Neither will we become anyone’s slaves, even if we should die in battle!”

“Go to hell, then!”

The Gods-Slaying Spear abruptly appeared and instantly pierced through the Storm Titan half-deity’s forehead before shooting out from the other side and killing him!
