An Understated Dominance Chapter 2360 – As the black blade slashed towards him, Dustin didn’t move. He calmly reached out with two fingers and caught it.

“Buzz~!”

The blade froze in his hand, making a light buzzing sound. For a moment, it shimmered with cold light.

“Huh?”

Father Adam’s eyes widened in surprise. He had used 80% of his strength, and the blade, sharp enough to slice through iron like it was nothing, should have easily cut through Dustin’s arm—let alone a tank. Yet, Dustin stopped it with just two fingers. Could he be another genetically enhanced monster?

Stunned, Father Adam tried to pull the sword back, but before he could, Dustin gave the blade a quick twist.

“Clang!”

The sword snapped in half.

Father Adam frowned but didn’t hesitate. He swung at Dustin’s head with another sword in hand.

“Again?”

Dustin repeated the move, catching the blade with two fingers and twisting until it broke.

“Deng, deng, deng…”

Father Adam staggered back, noticing both his arm blades were broken. His blades, strong enough to cut steel, had been shattered like paper in front of Dustin.

“Got any more tricks?” Dustin asked calmly.

“This is just the beginning!”

Father Adam spread his arms and swung again. The broken blades grew back instantly, returning to their original form.

The blades were part of his body, and his body had been fused with the genes of many powerful creatures, including the regenerative abilities of the blood race. He could heal quickly—even regrow a limb or reconnect a severed head.

As the most powerful genetically modified warrior, this was just one of his many skills.

“Impressive,” Dustin muttered, narrowing his eyes. The speed at which Father Adam’s blades regenerated was even faster than Black Kong’s.

“Let’s go again!”

Father Adam wasn’t afraid. He raised his blades and slashed at Dustin’s neck, one from the left, the other from the right, like giant scissors closing in.

Dustin snorted, stepping forward suddenly. Before the blades could meet, he punched Father Adam in the chest.

“Bang!”

With a loud impact, Father Adam’s chest scales shattered, leaving a bowl-sized hole. He flew back over ten meters, as if hit by a truck. But before hitting the ground, he flipped back and landed on his feet, creating two deep footprints.

Father Adam looked down at his chest and frowned. His scales, which could block divine weapons, had been shattered by Dustin’s bare fist, leaving a deep, bone-revealing wound. Dustin’s strength was far greater than he had expected.

Father Adam had thought Dustin’s power would be on par with Reagan Judd, ranked fifth on the Legendary list—tough, but not a serious threat. Now he realized Dustin was even stronger.

He couldn’t afford to drag this out. While endurance was his strength, the more abilities he revealed, the harder the fight would become.

He needed to end this fast.

With that thought, Father Adam took a deep breath and activated his third form.

His body swelled as his bones and muscles expanded. The scales on his skin darkened from black to red. His features became beastly, with sharp teeth and a terrifying expression. Two red, curved horns grew from his head, and a lizard-like tail emerged from his back. He now resembled a demon from Western mythology.

“What the hell is that? That’s terrifying!”

“A demon! He’s a demon!”

“Is Dustin in trouble now?”

“Damn! How are we supposed to fight that?”

Fear spread among the onlookers.

Before, even with scales and blades, Father Adam still looked human, just strange. But now, he had transformed completely into a monster. Standing nearly three meters tall, covered in red scales like armor, with sharp claws, fangs, horns, and a tail, he was the image of a demon.

Just seeing him made people tremble with fear.

Could Dustin handle this monster?
