Chapter 457: Chapter 226: The Kill, Purging Contamination, Mother Empress Brain Marrow (2)

The part most heavily affected was the Face Armor on Lin Feng’s head.

The radiation contamination spawned bizarre Zerg Race mouthparts: hundreds of tiny, jointed tentacles and circular, serrated mandibles erupted, looking like a chaotic jumble of various Zerg heads.

As the pollution completely consumed the Face Armor, Lin Feng’s entire face was left exposed, immediately taking the full brunt of the Divine Realm’s Energy.

Left with no other choice, Lin Feng continuously hacked at the Golden Quality Neck Guard beneath his feet with his enhanced Tiger-toothed Chainsaw Sword. At the same time, he activated his Particle Control Realm to clear the monstrous pollution from his face and resist the Divine Realm’s invasion.

The Tiger-toothed Chainsaw Sword’s palm-sized saw blade WHIRRED as it melted its way into the Golden Neck Guard.

Its breakneck rotation speed of five revolutions per second unleashed five times the Basic Damage, delivering a burst of nearly five thousand points as it hammered into the Neck Guard of the same quality...

...sending countless dazzling golden sparks flying!

As time passed, second by second, the serrated edge of the Chainsaw Sword burrowed deeper and deeper into the Mother Empress’ Neck Guard, piercing through the meter-thick layer of protection!

Finally, a loud CRACK echoed!

Lin Feng clearly felt it. The hands gripping the Tiger-toothed Chainsaw Sword jolted as the blade sank down, and the immense pressure on his body, braced against the Neck Guard, eased considerably.

’He finally broke through the thick Golden Neck Guard!’

The tip of the Chainsaw Sword had already pierced through the massive Neck Guard, its end blade ripping and tearing at the Mother Empress’s brainstem and the nerves connecting to her entire body.

Most importantly, the Chainsaw Sword had also severed the blood vessels that transported nutrients and Energy.

The Mother Empress, lost in her frenzy, felt a bone-chilling, piercing pain at that moment.

She thrashed her body wildly, shaking her head, trying to fling the tiny yet terrifying bug off her back.

Without a moment’s hesitation, Lin Feng gripped the Tiger-toothed Chainsaw Sword with both hands, unleashing all his remaining strength. He twisted the hilt, revving the Chainsaw Sword’s blade to grind a half-meter-wide opening in the shattered Neck Guard, allowing the sword to plunge even deeper!

By now, the Mother Empress’s fragile brain tissue and the neural pathways of her cervical spine had been mostly pulverized by the churning Chainsaw Sword.

He just needed to sever the spine and the main arteries to stop the advent of the Divine Realm at its source.

In this moment of crisis, Lin Feng could no longer worry about the mutations appearing on his body. He directly channeled all his internal Particle Control, pouring it into the Tiger-toothed Chainsaw Sword he gripped, repairing the damage it had sustained from cutting the Neck Guard.

As his Mental Realm, Energy, and even his physical stamina were all poured into the Chainsaw Sword...

Lin Feng was betting everything—life and death, victory and defeat—on this one attack.

Through the gaping hole in the Neck Guard, palpable waves of Spiritual Energy surged out. Laden with immense amounts of the Divine Realm’s radiation, they blasted what was left of Lin Feng’s body, washing over him like a torrential waterfall and continuously corrupting his cells...

At a time like this, even a moment’s hesitation or retreat would mean only one thing for Lin Feng: death!

Lin Feng opened his mouth in a silent roar, desperately shoving the Chainsaw Sword in his hands deeper into the Mother Empress’s neck, severing the cervical vertebrae that supported her head.

After severing the spine, he tore through countless blood vessels, finally carving a gash over ten meters long and deep!

Finally, with the supply of blood cut off, the Mother Empress’s brain was deprived of Energy...

As her aura dissipated, the Realm Power of Infinite Reproduction also began to slowly fade away.

Around the Mother Empress, the Hive Will Divine Realm—which was about to coalesce from the Energy Fog Beads—lost the guidance of the Realm Power. The nascent Divine Kingdom collapsed, turning into a sky-full of blood rain...

A torrential, gory rain of blood fell within the Hive, drenching everyone’s Battle Armor.

Ling Yi stood in the distance, retracting their Spiritual Power. The rusty taste of backlash filled their mouth as they looked up toward the top of the Hive, their expression somewhat dejected.

The phantom of the Divine Statue of the Mother of Life, a Zerg Race Deity, had actually already materialized halfway. It had been just moments away from descending into reality and corrupting the entire Underground Hive.

Yet that partial manifestation alone had already turned the Energy Fog Beads within a two-to-three-hundred-meter radius of the Mother Empress blood-red, ready to mutate under the Divine Realm’s influence into the endless Zerg swarm of the Hive Will.

Now, as the Divine Statue gradually faded, these already-tainted Fog Beads, having turned into blood rain, lost their sustaining power and drifted to the ground.

Seeing this, a look of regret appeared in Ling Yi’s eyes.

’If these Energy Fog Beads hadn’t been contaminated by the Divine Realm, I could have absorbed them to advance further, accumulating at least half the reserves for my promotion.’

But now, because the Yunxia Ridge Mother Empress had risked her life in the summoning of the Divine Realm, they had all been sacrificed.

All that was left was the Source of Life that Lin Feng could absorb, and the High-tier Materials within the Mother Empress’s body.

As the blood rain continued to fall, the Lightning Beheading mission concluded with the Mother Empress breathing her last...

No longer supported, the half-severed Mother Empress Zerg Head slammed heavily to the ground, gouging out a crater several meters deep. The falling blood rain pooled around the head, forming a forty-meter-wide circular pool of blood.

At this moment, Lin Feng sat on the Mother Empress’s back, his right hand tightly gripping the hilt of the Tiger-toothed Chainsaw Sword. He could feel a vast Energy pouring into his body through the heavily worn Chainsaw Sword.

He raised his left hand, gathering a layer of Particle Control Power, and wiped his blood-soaked cheek.

As he wiped away the blood rain, he also disintegrated and erased the mutated Zerg Race organs and limbs that had proliferated on his face.

Although Particle Control could not be used on other Life Forms, it was extremely effective on Lin Feng’s own cells, as that was where the power was condensed from in the first place.
