“Holy crap, it's about to go down!”
“Do you think Boss Yiming can handle this? These fishmen are seriously tough. He's one against eight!”
“Handle it? Are you kidding? This is Boss Yiming we're talking about!”
“Shh, quiet! Watch Boss Yiming show ‘em who's boss!”
“Damn it, those fish bastards ambushed me. I'm back to Body Refinement Stage 1! Kill them all, Boss Yiming!”
Players hid in the bushes, eagerly watching the impending battle unfold.
The fishman leader's eyes narrowed. “Late-stage Spiritual Vein Realm?”
He Yiming's formidable cultivation level came as a shock. The young human stood even stronger than the leader himself.
But so what?
These human cultivators were weaklings, as evidenced by their earlier performance. They froze when ambushed and stood like idiots awaiting death.
“Za Yi, take care of him.” The leader casually waved a clawed hand.
A burly fishman warrior stepped forward, his scales gleaming in the sun. “Human, grovel before me, and I'll grant you a swift death!”
He Yiming's gaze sharpened. “So, you're the Sea Tribe from the Endless Ocean to the east?”
“That's right. We are Ironscale warriors. Prepare to die, weakling!” sneered Za Yi, his arrogance unshaken.
He Yiming's heart sank.
Their sect lay perilously close to the Endless Ocean, infamous for its countless Sea Tribe inhabitants. The fishmen often raided coastal settlements, leaving death and destruction in their wake.
These fish warriors were likely just a scouting party.
“I see. In that case, you can all die now.”
He Yiming's voice was calm, but the energy of his Azure Emperor's Eternal Physique surged to life.
“Kill him!” Za Yi roared, hurling his bone spear with lightning speed.
“Look out, Boss!”
Players who had died to the spear's deadly power before shouted warnings, their voices tinged with panic.
He Yiming raised his left hand.
“Armament Haki!”
A layer of black, battle-hardened energy enveloped his arm. Unlike the players' version, this was pure, refined power backed by He Yiming's late-stage Spiritual Vein Realm cultivation.
The bone spear struck his palm but shattered instantly, pieces falling harmlessly to the ground.
“What?!” The fishman leader's eyes widened.
The humans he had fought earlier used a similar technique, but none had this level of strength.
He Yiming didn't stop.
In an instant, his legs were coated in the same black energy. “Boom!” The ground cratered beneath him as he launched forward like a bolt of lightning.
Before Za Yi could react, He Yiming was already in front of him.
“Too fast!” Za Yi's mind screamed, but it was too late.
“Boom!”
He Yiming's fist, clad in Armament Haki, struck Za Yi square in the chest. The blow shattered the fishman's iron-hard scales, ripping through his body and ending his life instantly.
“First one.” He Yiming's tone was cold.
“All at once! Kill him!” the fishman leader bellowed.
The remaining fish warriors charged, their bone spears flying toward He Yiming from all directions.
Caught in the middle of the onslaught, He Yiming didn't flinch.
“Armament Haki!”
Black energy surged, coating his entire body from head to toe.
“Whoa, full-body Armament Haki?!”
The players watching were stunned.
They had only managed to coat small areas—like a fist or a foot—with Armament Haki. But here was He Yiming, covered from head to toe, like a walking fortress.
“This... this is insane!”
“Goddamn it, that cheating dev stole our technique and made it OP!”
“Boss Yiming is the GOAT! He's unstoppable!”
“Clang! Crack!”
The fish warriors' spears shattered on impact with He Yiming's body, their attacks rendered utterly ineffective.
“What the hell is he made of?!” one of the fishmen stammered.
Their leader snarled. “This human… his body is like steel!”
“Cheater! This dev is a total cheat!” screamed Wang Lufei, his face red with indignation.
Despite his Body Refinement Stage 8 cultivation, he could barely coat a single limb with Haki. But He Yiming had achieved full-body coverage—and effortlessly, at that.
“That's not fair! How can the NPC outshine us at our own skill?!”
“Is this... is this even a cultivation game anymore? Or did we accidentally walk into a One Piece crossover?”
The players were in an uproar, half furious and half awestruck as they watched He Yiming unleash his overwhelming power.
