Chapter 114 Showdown
"boom!"
alkaid scanned the horizon intently.
deep within the forest, a terrifying rumbling was approaching from afar, growing steadily louder.
accompanied by the countless sounds of trees being snapped and shattered, "crack."
this commotion instantly snapped xie yushu out of his shock, who had just seen his stronger companion mo huang get killed in one move.
"the forest!?"
he suddenly realized that mo huang and the others were retreating towards this forest and seemed...
not to be trying to flee.
instead, they were intentionally leading them in this direction.
the snow dragon empire had used even nuclear weapons to encircle the rebirth society, acting without restraint. under such circumstances, they would have run to the urban areas, using crowds as a shield while exploiting the dense population to prevent the snow dragon from daring to use nuclear weapons in the city.
yet, they ran towards the forest, contrary to expectations...
"heh... you don't know what terrible entity you are facing..."
mo huang coughed, his eyes showing a hint of fierceness.
"it's a trap!"
xie yushu exclaimed in a low voice, "let's retreat first."
"no need, isn't the purpose of our encirclement of the rebirth society to force the mastermind behind the scenes to show themselves?"
alkaid said calmly, "it's time to settle things with the real head of the rebirth society."
he had already realized everything when he felt that aura carrying terrifying momentum approaching.
mo huang was just bait.
the purpose was to provoke him into action and then bring him here to be personally killed by the mastermind.
the only exception was probably that they hadn't expected mo huang to be defeated so quickly.
if he wanted to leave now, he could easily retreat.
however...
alkaid had no intention of leaving.
although given enough time, he would become increasingly stronger.
but so would his opponent.
feeling constantly targeted by a powerful adversary never felt secure enough.
rather than that, it might be better to put an end to it all.
especially since...
the opponent dared to ambush him while injured, and now, at his peak condition, there was nothing to worry about.
with that thought, alkaid calmed his mind, continuously attuning himself to the might of the mountain and river veins and maximizing the passive effects of the lifebound stellar.
in less than half a minute.
under the somewhat fearful looks of xie yushu and others, the trees in front of them were suddenly smashed to pieces by a figure.
following that, an old but spirited figure appeared in their view.
he slowly clenched his fist, his gaze not even bothering with xie yushu, who was on high alert, or the dying mo huang, but looked straight at alkaid.
"su alkaid." stay tuned for updates on empire
he looked at alkaid, his face carrying a hint of amusement, "i told you, that battle wasn't over yet."
"it was you after all."
alkaid said.
if he had faced leng tianfeng's punch directly, he would have had no power to resist!
if this was the case for him, a primordial chaos martial saint, what about su alkaid who was of the same realm and had not fully transformed into a celestial body yet?
in shock, he suddenly looked forward.
the next moment, he felt a muffled thump that stabbed directly into his brain, this sound seemingly possessing a tangibility that caused a painful throbbing in his brain, and blurred his thoughts and vision.
before he could figure out where this pain and muffled sound originated from, a ring of visible violent airwaves exploded at the central point where su alkaid and leng tianfeng collided.
the void seemed as if it was bombarded by a 155mm heavy artillery shell, and the shockwaves formed from the blast crazily swept in all directions, grinding the leaves, branches, and soil on the ground into dust.
the plants and foliage within a radius of several dozen meters were directly shredded into pieces by the exploding airwaves.
the two trees, each thick enough to require a person's embrace around it, within ten meters of both individuals, seemed as if struck and sliced by a tremendous force, instantly breaking apart and sending wood chips flying dozens of meters away.
only at this moment did xie yushu realize why he felt as if his brain was tearing apart.
the sound wave formed by their punch collisions exceeded the frequency that ears could capture, ultimately impacting the eardrum and shaking the brain, causing damage.
he felt a chill inside his ears, and indeed, blood had begun to seep out.
just the aftermath was enough to injure him, a primordial chaos martial saint!?
xie yushu's heart trembled.
"this power..."
as the dust scattered, two figures simultaneously flew backwards.
but...
surprisingly, the one who flew further was not merely the primordial chaos martial saint su alkaid, but leng tianfeng, who had possessed the body of a celestial.
the expression of this celestial carried a trace of solemnity.
the evolution was too fast!
this descendant before his eyes...
the speed of evolution was too fast.
especially since...
he had, just like himself, already broken through the first major boundary of cultivation, thereby losing any advantage he had.
"damn! taking over this old body met with too much resistance and plus these natives gave me no time to breathe, i still haven't fully refined this body yet, otherwise... that strike could have severely injured him!"
leng tianfeng's thoughts raced, but his expression revealed nothing.
"genetic liberation technology!"
he quickly changed his tactics, switching from the direct combat earlier to a hit-and-run fighting style: "how long can your vessel maintain this state!? at most a few minutes, then you'll be powerless to resist becoming just another ghost under my fist!"
"didn't you say to please you at my best? is this all?"
alkaid's thunderclap sword transformed into a streak of lightning, relentlessly stabbing.
each sword thrust was filled with explosive gang qi, even solid steel would be cleaved in half on the spot by the divine sword.
"come on!"
he bellowed, as the sword force enveloped and descended.
leng tianfeng's face changed, but his retreating figure did not slow down, no longer choosing to directly confront the sword strike, while he laughed coldly: "victor kings and defeated bandits! tactics aren't important, what's important is who can truly last to the end."
"you're confident? but do you dare to guarantee you'll be the last victor? don't forget, just a few months ago, i barely managed to fight one of your martial saint avatars with all my might, yet now even though you've obtained a celestial body, you still dare not confront me directly!"
alkaid fully integrated the art of the earth furnace and the traits of the child of the stars, accompanied by leveraging the life force field, he enhanced the might of the earth entirely upon himself: "so, if you can't kill me this time and let me turn and leave, extending the time... when i attain the star master title..."
in everyone's perception, it seemed as if a massive mountain erupted from the ground, bringing with it a terrifying force of mountain-splitting and earth-shattering, all of which fused into alkaid's sword and struck down toward the true leader behind the rebirth society.
"by then, what will you amount to!?"
with a loud shout, the force of this moment's strike from alkaid, whether it was the sword's force or his combat spirit, climbed to a new peak.
the overwhelming pressure that covered them completely enveloped leng tianfeng's figure.
