Chapter 717: “Heavenly Thunder Annihilation Technique”

The Heaven Demon Secret Cavern.
Since Happy defeated the Emperor and rose to the top of the Dragon Ranking, this place has become the dedicated training site for the disciples of the Mu Family’s Heaven Demon Branch…
Two rows of wooden stakes stretched from the Heaven Demon Branch all the way to the vicinity of the secret cavern, extremely clear and spectacular.
Any new or old player who approached would notice that all the players inside and outside the cavern wore uniformly identical clothing, each with the “Mu” symbol embroidered on their chests, making them easily recognizable.
This was Baolong’s way of managing and distinguishing between players from within and outside the family…
In this way, it was easy to form a distinct group, allowing many outsiders to understand the situation and leave voluntarily, thus avoiding unnecessary conflicts.
This method was indeed very effective.
Seeing the Mu Family disciples in uniform clothing, many people felt unable to integrate, as if repelled by an invisible force and too afraid to approach. Once they did, they were immediately the focus of countless gazes—like a different color among uniform shades, standing out sharply!
It was precisely because of Baolong’s special system that the management of the Heaven Demon Secret Cavern was both strict and effortless, with no strangers approaching all day long.
But today…
The players inside the ruins of the Heaven Demon Sect received notices from the branch leader and all withdrew outside!
“What happened?”
Out of trust in Baolong and obedience to orders, several groups came out of the mountain valley.
“Baolong?”
“Isn’t it still too early to enter the Heaven Demon Secret Cavern? Why call everyone out so early…” He Shiyi approached Baolong. He naturally knew that entry to the cavern was always at a set time and didn’t take long, allowing enough time for everyone to train.
Baolong calmly waited until everyone gathered before announcing, “I’m sorry, brothers. Today, the family head is coming here for an inspection, so the Heaven Demon Secret Cavern will open early. Everyone can train outside or in the gang’s cells. The family head said that today, the advanced cells will be open to all disciples! Baolong will train outside with you all.”
“…Huh?”
“The family head is here. Aren’t you going in, Boss Baolong?”
“Right, then who will go in with Boss Lei?”
Chatter filled the crowd.
He Shiyi, standing nearby, was stunned:
“Is it Happy?”
Ever since Happy left, he thought he had found a better training place. He never expected him to return to the Heaven Demon Secret Cavern.

“Well, it’s that person… To make up for everyone’s losses, the sect master has allocated 5,000 taels of silver each as compensation for the medicinal herbs.”
Bao Long smiled slightly.
“So it’s Happy Boss. Then what need do we have for medicinal herb fees…”
“That’s right!”
“By the way, where is Happy Boss?”
“He’s already inside.”
Bao Long pointed toward the entrance of Tianmo Sect with a smile.
“Huh?”
“Bao Long, you’re not fair! You won’t even let us say hello to Boss or take a photo to show off to our friends!”
“By the way, was there any group that went in just now?”
“I don’t think so.” The group exchanged glances.
Bao Long said with a laugh, “It was Happy Boss’s wish. He’s going in alone to practice; he doesn’t need many people following.”
“Alone…”
“There are two at the peak of Wuwei inside… Truly worthy of the Liberation Realm!” The crowd was once again filled with awe and chatter.
……
Bang!!!!
The heavy Dragon-Shattering Stone crashed heavily onto the hard floor, causing the ground to shake violently, with sound waves echoing everywhere.
By the time Bao Long spoke, Happy Boss had already entered the hall of Tianmo Sect. Wielding the 6,000-point attack power of “Sword Seven,” each slash of his sword carried the might of the “Imperial Extreme Shock Technique.” Wherever his sword passed, the Tianmo Sect disciples were no match at all.
Only when the Dragon-Shattering Stone hit the ground did the Tianmo Sect disciples standing in various corners of the hall suddenly tremble. Blood holes appeared on their chests and foreheads, and they collapsed to the ground, lifeless.
The speed was too fast…
His former “Flying Dragon Sword Technique” paled in comparison to what he had now.
Sword techniques at the Liberation Realm should inherently be much faster than those at the Life and Death Realm. Yet Happy Boss had sharp eyes and practiced ten such sword techniques in one go, testing them all within a single day. From them, he selected “Heavenly Sky Thunder Annihilation Style,” obtained from a senior sword master…
The sword moved like thunder, its trajectory like lightning!
In other words, each slash was as loud as thunder, astonishing and mesmerizing; yet its speed was many times faster than lightning, unstoppable and devastating.
He chose a pure, high-speed sword technique because Happy Boss already had the advantages of the Liberation Realm—his lethality was superior, and his weapon ranked first on the Divine Weapons List, surpassing even those among tens of thousands of people. Pursuing even greater lethality would be unnecessary; he wasn’t a brute after all.

As the Dragon-Shattering Stone fell, Happy had already returned his sword to its sheath, his eyes slightly closed. Amidst the heavy sound of mechanisms, stone doors in three directions slowly rose, accompanied by the constant scraping sound of metal feet gripping the ground.
Mechanical beasts!
Hundreds of mechanical beasts, like frenzied beasts, all fixed their gazes on the faint figure standing at the center of the hall. Their blood-red “eyes” emitted a cruel and violent glow.
Whoosh!!
Thud! Thud-thud…
The moment the stone doors fully opened, the hall trembled violently, with the ground shaking as if armies were advancing from all directions…
An overwhelming pressure and rapid sounds, along with the roars of the mechanical beasts, seemed ready to utterly destroy the person in the center of the hall!
At that moment!
The heavy black iron doors also rose. A giant mechanical wolf head, extremely ferocious, emerged from within the doors, its intimidating presence breathtaking.
Yet…
As the mechanical beasts leaped high, just as they approached Happy’s body…
Boom!!!!!!
A deafening explosion erupted from within the sword sheath! Around Happy, without any wind, over a dozen sword beams, like sharp lightning, instantly pierced into the bodies of the surrounding mechanical beasts after building up momentum for a long time.
The damage from Sword Seven, combined with the 50% increased lethality of the “Heavenly Thunder Annihilation Technique,” resulted in an actual damage output that exceeded the mechanical beasts’ tolerance limit of 25,000 points.
The fourth-level “Heavenly Thunder Annihilation Technique”…
The tough metal bodies of those dozen mechanical beasts were sliced in half like tofu blocks after being pierced by those sharp, electric-like sword beams, scattering into piles of broken parts in the air.
“The speed… isn’t at its limit.”
Ignoring the fire wolf that began spewing flames, Happy stepped on the heads of the mechanical beasts as he calmly flew above the densest swarm of them, unleashing a flurry of sharp electric sword beams.
Soon, Happy fully immersed himself in a fixed rhythm—move, strike; strike, move!
Mechanical beasts in the air and on the ground were continuously cut apart, lying scattered like broken toys; in less than three minutes… hundreds of mechanical beasts turned into powerless broken parts, piling up like mountains throughout the hall.
