Chapter 923: 790, Concept God Appears_1
Sometimes a hairstyle really can change a person's aura, but Gu Rong could never have imagined that such a dangerous aura would come from being bald.
At this moment, even he hesitated.
"Are you sure, but let's agree, only one punch is allowed. Although I have a body of steel, it's not for just anyone to strike."
While speaking, Gu Rong held back, silently retreating a few steps to the side.
Chrysanthemum Douluo nodded, his smile suddenly turning somewhat eerie. He walked up to the Steel Fire Dragon, his body slowly levitating into midair.
"Watch closely because this next punch is going to be awesome!"
Chrysanthemum Douluo declared.
Lin Yi's mouth twitched. What sort of chunibyo line was that?
However, the fist he raised indeed felt as though it would cause anomalies in heaven and earth, the space around the sizeable right fist seemed to fluctuate, or more accurately, to distort.
Chrysanthemum Douluo let out a low shout, his arm drawn back like an arrow on a bowstring. With an explosive yell, he threw his right fist forward at that moment.
The fist rapidly connected with the Steel Fire Dragon's cheek, and in that instant, the teeth inside the Iron Dragon's mouth shattered one by one, a crack appearing on that silver-shiny face, radiating rapidly from the point of impact in a dense, web-like pattern.
The power on his arm kept invading!
"Boom!"
A loud noise emanated from the scene; the Steel Fire Dragon's entire head shattered into grey fragments, and its body flew off at supersonic speed. Bystanders turned and felt that the Iron Dragon showed no signs of stopping.
Keep in mind, Gu Rong's physical Martial Soul could remain undamaged even under a million-level Damage Grade, at most stepping back once or twice.
And now, the sight was so exaggerated it was beyond description.
Chrysanthemum Douluo: "It seems there won't be a chance for a second punch."
Such arrogant words, and setting aside whether that punch was cool or not, everyone's expressions on the scene proved that it was absolutely shocking.
"Damn it, that kid loses his hair and undergoes a complete transformation! Even if I saw it again, I wouldn't believe that punch was his doing!"
"Yeah, when did this guy ever act so manly!"
...
The Elders of the Soul Hall now looked at Chrysanthemum Douluo with new respect, even a bit of admiration. No man could resist this type of violent aesthetics, and clearly, Chrysanthemum Douluo had perfectly embodied this aesthetic in that moment.
Lin Yi turned to Gu Rong, who was still in shock on the spot, and consoled, "Just think of it like your Martial Soul has shattered. It can be restored."
Gu Rong's complexion turned somewhat pale. Even though his Martial Soul had become an entity independent of him, it still retained some connection to him, its master.
It could be said that the physical pain was borne by the Steel Fire Dragon, but the mental fear was all on Gu Rong.
"Alright, got it, you old scoundrel, come help me up..."
Gu Rong waved Chen Xin over; Chen Xin finally snapped out of it, and upon touching Gu Rong, realized the guy's entire body was shaking.
"Senior, with all these hairstyles, can't I get a preview?!"
Chrysanthemum Douluo curiously asked Lin Yi, his excitement palpable.
Lin Yi: "You can't because it's random. After an hour, you have to wait a day before the next hairstyle refreshes."
He paused, then suddenly chuckled, "Though I do hope you won't randomly get one particular hairstyle."
Chrysanthemum Douluo looked puzzled and quickly asked, "What hairstyle?"
"This hairstyle has always been known as the most dangerous hairstyle… That's all I can say, the rest is up to your luck."
The most dangerous hairstyle is a kind of twisted braid, placed on one shoulder. It's termed dangerous because in various anime, females with this hairstyle usually end up 'getting the box lunch', which is a euphemism for meeting their demise.
Lin Yi: "Next!"
...
Because the appearance of the rewards from the Monster Brushing Tower delayed things quite a bit, it should have been just noon when the Elders of the Soul Hall finished their attacks, but now it was already approaching evening.
Emperor Xueye looked up at the sky, still volunteering to be the first to take the stage for the Tiandou side.
After all, being born into nobility, Emperor Xueye, disguised as a beggar, always gave off the vibe of a leader going undercover to experience the lives of the common people. It's not that his acting was poor, but his innate noble aura was so deeply ingrained that it affected his appearance, making it never quite natural enough.
His method of attack still involved using the Blue Electric Overlord Dragon Martial Soul, but thanks to various accumulated power-ups still in effect, the Lightning Conduit Kite was unnecessary, and an attack surpassing historic damage ended swiftly within a matter of seconds.
Lin Yi looked at the panel.
[Blood Loss: 436,375]
[Remaining Health: 883,016,100,365]
[Damage Level: Red (High Grade)]
[Random Reward: Conceptual God (Dunhuang Old Horse)]
[Host Reward: Any Conceptual God]
Who's Dunhuang Old Horse? Isn't Dunhuang a place on the Blue Planet?
Lin Yi opened the commentary panel to check. Having been transported for so long, he really couldn't keep up with the current trending memes.
On the commentary panel, to save effort, the System directly showed Lin Yi a segment of mukbang.
"Brothers, just having a simple sheep's head here, with Old Horse's fragrant pepper and salt, poured over with hot vegetable oil, a splash of vinegar, drizzle it ~"
Just this simple line, accompanied by the image of a man eating a sheep's head, was the System's introduction to the Conceptual God.
Lin Yi was waiting for some twist at the end, but the guy just emotionlessly made an advertisement to the camera.
So it was just a simple mukbang after all.
How eating a sheep's head related to a Conceptual God... As he read the commentaries, Lin Yi inexplicably felt like laughing.
He said to Emperor Xueye, "Damage 436,375, Red Advanced level, your reward is Conceptual God possession. When you use the powers of the Conceptual God, there's a chant you need to say out loud. Only by reciting the chant can you use the power."
Hearing about a chant, Emperor Xueye immediately perked up with keen interest.
"Alright, Senior, please tell me."
Lin Yi: "The chant is just two words, 'drizzle it'."
"This Conceptual God mainly targets anything related to sheep, yes, the animal sheep. Whether it's actual sheep, someone born in the year of the sheep, someone who looks like a sheep, or anyone with 'sheep' in their name, against them, you will possess invincible strength."
Lin Yi: "Besides that, you also have the ability to summon an item indefinitely. The item you can summon is called a Purple Apple."
As he finished speaking, he flicked the reward orb towards Emperor Xueye, and a "Purple Apple" appeared in Emperor Xueye's hands.
Although it's called a Purple Apple, in reality, it's just a peeled onion, an onion that Old Horse ate in the video to help with the greasiness.
Emperor Xueye: "What's this for?"
Lin Yi: "Hold it in your hand, and it will cause anyone related to sheep within a hundred meters to cough violently, thereby revealing their location."
