In the Age of Gods and Demons, I evolved into the final boss.

Chapter 44 Invincible

Whoosh!

On the grassy plain, Chen Zheng and Jiang Mo darted past one after the other at a speed of 20 meters per second.

Their target was a pride of lions more than 20 kilometers away, and they planned to prioritize killing this high-value group.

Since this area had already been explored yesterday, and most of the mutated creatures had been killed, the two of them ran for more than ten kilometers without encountering a single mutated creature.

As they ran, Jiang Mo asked gravely, "Chen Zheng, are you sure you can handle that pack of mutated lions?"

"Don't worry, I have a way," Chen Zheng said calmly.

"All right."

Sensing the confidence in Chen Zheng's eyes, Jiang Mo, who had originally wanted to study some tactics, said nothing more.

puff! !

As Chen Zheng swept past a large tree, his Mo Dao (a type of long-handled sword) flashed suddenly, and instantly a python head the size of a water basin fell from the tree, spraying blood that almost splattered all over Jiang Mo.

[Slay a level 5 mutated creature and gain 8 contribution points]

"It's a mutated swarm!" Chen Zheng, who was running at high speed, suddenly stopped when his personal terminal vibrated and signaled Jiang Mo to crouch down and hide.

Using the waist-high weeds for cover, the two looked ahead.

At the edge of the jungle a hundred meters away, a group of mutated creatures that resemble goats but are nearly three meters long and have two pairs of sharp horns on their heads are eating.

Jiang Mo swiped the terminal screen to project: "It's a level 5 mutated creature, the Four-Horned Sword Sheep. Be careful of their charges; they can explode very fast in an instant."

"Hmm." Chen Zheng nodded slightly and bent down to reach out to the group of mutated sword sheep.

100 meters, 50 meters, 20 meters... When Chen Zheng was only a dozen meters away from the nearest mutated sword sheep, bang!

The soil exploded, and Chen Zheng shot out.

Whoosh! The cleaver in Chen Zheng's hand transformed into a black flash, instantly passing before the sword sheep that suddenly looked up.

*Pfft!* The sheep's head shot skyward, spraying blood several meters high.

The sudden change startled the herd of sword sheep. They scattered and leaped away for more than ten meters before turning back to find that the attacker was just a tiny creature.

Tap tap!

Several strong sword sheep stomped their hooves on the ground, their eyes blazing with ferocity. The other sword sheep also lowered their heads, their four sharp horns aimed at Chen Zheng, and launched a charge.

Bang! Bang! Fourteen strange beasts, comparable to water buffaloes, charged forward, shaking the ground and scattering grass clippings everywhere, creating an astonishing spectacle.

"Kill!" Chen Zheng roared, his figure advancing instead of retreating, bursting out of the encirclement with a speed of thirty meters per second, and then moving with his blade.

*Thud!* A black blade swept across, instantly severing the three-headed sword sheep in half at the waist, its internal organs spraying out.

Bang! Grass clippings flew everywhere as Chen Zheng leaped several meters into the air, dodging the sharp corners rushing from both sides before slashing down with his long sword.

Mountain Collapse!

boom!

With a powerful, heavy slash, one horned sheep was sliced ​​in two. Just as the blade was about to touch the bottom, it suddenly slashed upwards and severed the head of the other horned sheep.

In an instant, crimson blood stained the earth red. Chen Zheng's figure moved as fast as a ghost through the mutated sword sheep herd, and with each slash, a mutated sword sheep died.

The battle broke out quickly and ended just as quickly, leaving only Chen Zheng standing amidst the corpses, wielding a long sword.

"So fast!" Jiang Mo's eyes widened.

Although Chen Zheng demonstrated strong combat power yesterday, he only showed such efficient killing methods today because he wanted Jiang Mo and the others to practice and they didn't encounter any beast hordes.

[Killed 15 Level 5 Mutant Creatures, gained 120 Contribution Points]

Wiping the blood off his blade and sheathing it, Chen Zheng shook his head: "Don't be too surprised. I was able to kill these sword sheep so quickly because they were too weak."

"Let's go." With that, Chen Zheng continued running towards the pride of lions.

Mutant creatures were originally just ordinary wild animals before they mutated.

The level 5 mutated sword sheep is only slightly stronger than an ordinary wild beast, and poses almost no danger to Chen Zheng, who has mastered both meat refining and swordsmanship.

In this trial plain between levels 2 and 9, only those level 8 and 9 mutated creatures that have reached the pinnacle of mutation can pose any threat to Chen Zheng.

There were no further unexpected events, and the two arrived at the map location more than ten minutes later.

But there was nothing here except weeds, low shrubs, and some gnawed scraps.

Jiang Mo frowned slightly: "This is the hunting ground of that mutated lion pride. They shouldn't have gone too far in a day. Let's search clockwise from this point."

"Hmm, let's go check in that direction first."

More than ten minutes later, the two found the pride of lions behind a hillside.

At the foot of a grassy hillside, eleven lionesses, each about three meters long and two meters tall at the shoulder, with skin that had turned gray and horny, were gnawing on a tin-skinned cow.

On the other side, a mutated male lion that had finished eating was crouching.

Male lions are larger than female lions, measuring nearly four meters in length excluding their tails, and exceeding three meters in height when crouching, much like an elephant.

Add to that his black mane that resembled burning flames, and his cold eyes that shone with a blood-red light, and his entire being exuded an astonishing sense of oppression.

On the hillside, Jiang Mo said gravely, "I'm sorry to trouble you, Chen Zheng. These lionesses are all at level seven in terms of mutation, and with that level nine male lion added to the mix, how are we going to fight them?"

A level nine mutated creature corresponds to a level nine martial artist. Jiang Mo thought that even Chen Zheng would face pressure alone against the mutated lion, and might not be able to kill it.

Not to mention there's a group of level seven lionesses who could attack at any moment.

"Simple, fly a kite." With that, Chen Zheng stood up and his aura exploded.

Roar! The mutated lion pride below, who were feeding, stirred slightly.

Several lionesses looked up at the hillside, and after discovering that Chen Zheng was the only "ordinary prey," the two lionesses on the periphery that had not eaten rushed down the hillside from the left and right.

"Stay away from me."

"Damn it, wait until I'm far away before you fight." Jiang Mo was shocked and turned to run. He was only a level six martial artist, and he would have a hard time even facing a mutated lioness.

As the two mutated lionesses drew closer, Chen Zheng lowered his stance slightly, pointing his knife downwards.

Roar!

The lioness, who had charged up the hillside first, roared and her massive, rhinoceros-like body swept towards Chen Zheng with a stench, her claws about to strike.

*Thud!* Chen Zheng shifted to the side, and the sharp blade flashed like a venomous snake's tongue, instantly piercing the lioness's gaping maw and penetrating the back of her head.

brush!

Chen Zheng drew his long sword and retreated sharply, dodging another mutated lioness that pounced on him, but the long sword in his hand turned into a black blade of light and swept across.

*Snap!* The mutated lioness's two front paws were severed at the root.

As blood splattered, Chen Zheng, who had been retreating, stopped abruptly, stepped forward, and passed by the lioness who had fallen to the ground and was howling in pain. The blade flashed across the lioness's head.

Boom! !

The two corpses hit the ground with a dull thud, and the sprayed blood stained the grass red. The strong stench of blood instantly enraged the lion pride below the hillside.

Roar!! The remaining nine mutated lionesses were enraged, abandoning their food and leaping towards Chen Zheng on the hillside.

Due to their habits, lion prides are usually led by lionesses when hunting. So the mutated male lion was a step slow to react. By the time it got up in anger, the mutated lioness had already charged up the hillside.

Whoosh! Chen Zheng's figure retreated rapidly in another direction on the hillside, followed by nine mutated lionesses chasing and roaring.

But just as he rushed a hundred meters, Chen Zheng's blood and qi suddenly erupted, and with a long roar, he turned into a black afterimage and charged back towards the lion pride.

In an instant, the black broadsword unleashed a sky full of sword shadows, twenty strikes per second, the sword light like a curtain, each blade containing more than a thousand kilograms of cutting pressure.

*Pfft pfft!*

Blood spurted and limbs splattered as Chen Zheng's figure flashed rapidly through the lion pride, leaving no stone unturned as mutated lionesses were severed from their bodies.

As the last mutated lioness roared in fury, her claws just a hair's breadth from Chen Zheng's back, Chen Zheng, who had just killed a mutated lioness, blurred.

*Thud!* A 1.4-meter-long knife pierced through the lioness's eyes and brain, exiting from the back of her head.

It has to be said that the knife Chen Ye gave him was quite good; it was sharp and sturdy, and so far, almost no mutated creature could stop it.

With all the mutated lionesses killed, Chen Zheng, holding a long sword and standing amidst the corpses, became even more imposing as he looked at the mutated male lion standing on the hillside.

Roar! The king descended from the sky, his face contorted with rage and ferocity.

The mutated male lion's massive body unleashed terrifying speed as it pounced down the hillside, its speed far exceeding that of the mutated female lions by more than double.

The mutated lion appeared almost instantly above Chen Zheng's head, its blood-red mouth wide open, and the invisible aura emanating from its body was almost suffocating.

Shattered Star!

Boom! Instead of retreating, Chen Zheng advanced, his entire body erupting with energy.

A flurry of sword light formed black meteors that shot into the sky, but the sword light suddenly dissipated the instant it clashed with the mutated lion, leaving only an extremely fast sword light flashing by.

puff!
