Chapter 240 Thunder Blade? One Punch!
The liquid entered my throat; it had no taste, no temperature, yet it felt as if countless cool grains of sand instantly seeped into my limbs and bones, surging into the depths of my consciousness.
In an instant, Li Xijun felt as if the speed of his thoughts, perceptions, and even his soul were being infinitely stretched and shortened. Everything around him became slow and clear. He could even "see" the slow drifting trajectories of spiritual particles in the air and "perceive" the slow weathering process of the altar beneath his feet over millions of years—
But at the same time, a tremendous sense of tearing also followed, as if his body and soul were simply unable to bear this immense power involving time.
Clearly, with his current level of cultivation, he is simply unable to absorb and refine the immense power of time contained within it.
The vast majority of the [Liquid of Time] had simply settled in the deepest part of his soul, like a dormant glacier, waiting for a certain opportunity in the future to be truly activated.
However, even so, a tiny, extremely subtle wisp of the power of time was naturally absorbed by his innate divine power originating from the White Dragon King.
assimilation.
A realization dawned on him, and his perception of and potential ability to interfere with the time around him became more adept than before. Although he was far from being able to reverse time, his ability to accelerate or slow down the flow of time for himself or even a small area at critical moments had significantly increased.
The simplest thing is that Li Xijun can now instantly accelerate his own time to four times the speed.
This means that he has already surpassed the speed of the two-dimensional skeleton old man from the original outdoor scene.
If the two were to engage in another sword fight, Li Xijun was confident that he could kill the withered old man even faster than his opponent could unleash the "Heavenly Revolving Life and Death Sword Chapter".
"Hmm... Innate divine power is indeed a good thing..."
Li Xijun couldn't help but sigh.
At the same time, the golden Holy Grail in his hand, as if having completed its mission, turned into specks of golden light and dissipated into the air.
At the same moment, the entire small world began to tremble violently.
Cracks appeared in the sky, the fertile earth began to collapse, and the huge corn and colorful cotton plants withered and disappeared, as if the core force supporting the existence of this space was rapidly being lost!
"Is this world about to collapse?" Li Xijun's expression changed, and his figure instantly transformed into a streak of light, rapidly flying back in the direction he came from.
Along the way, he saw Wei Ying, Ju Mengya, and a few others who had also realized that this little world was breaking down and were running away.
"Go!" he shouted, his speed undiminished. His powerful spiritual energy transformed into several hands, grabbing the still somewhat dazed Jiang Qiyue, Su Nianyi, Ju Mengya, and Wei Ying, who was closest to him, and carrying them like lightning towards the area he remembered coming from.
Fortunately, the entrance to the time-space corridor was still working, and Li Xijun led the group inside without hesitation.
Soon, Jiang Tu and the others also transformed into streaks of light and quickly followed and rushed into it.
This time, the corridor was no longer an endless maze; the surrounding fog had thinned considerably, and the correct path was clearly visible.
In just a dozen breaths, as the light came from ahead, the Great Xia Kingdom's team rushed out of the corridor and returned to the ancient, dilapidated murals on the third floor of the Feathered Serpent Temple.
The scene of that small world shattering, as if the entire beautiful divine kingdom was coming to an end, left the group somewhat disoriented.
Li Xijun quickly counted the number of people. "Is everyone here? Is everyone alright?"
Wei Ying and the others, who were the quickest to recover, responded in unison, while the rest took a few deep breaths and readjusted themselves.
Although the scene just now was a bit dangerous, they did indeed gain a lot, especially Jiang Qiyue, who cultivated the fire element. She even selectively forgot about the previous crisis and had a look of excitement on her face.
"Let's go, this trip has been quite successful. We should leave here and head straight to our next stop to prepare for the World Championship."
According to the plan, the resources for the first two stops will be obtained through this kind of challenge and training.
But the third stop was in New York, the starting point of the World Championship, where the final challenge was completed, and the third badge was obtained, allowing them to enter the World Championship.
At that time, the performance of the Great Xia National Palace team in the World Championship will be the main factor affecting their resource rewards.
Li Xijun was already getting impatient and was preparing to participate in the world martial arts competition to harvest the global willpower as soon as possible.
The rest of the group had no intention of staying any longer, and they quickly left the third-floor area. However, as they descended and prepared to exit via the large staircase...
"what!"
"No!!"
"Teacher, help!!"
Screams and violent explosions suddenly came from the lower part of the temple, interspersed with terrified shouts in foreign languages!
The pungent, nauseating stench of blood surged up through the passage as if it were a tangible substance!
"Something's happened down here!" This caused the faces of everyone on the Nationalist team to change drastically.
Li Xijun's eyes narrowed: "Shall we go and see what's going on?"
The group immediately rushed toward the source of the sound.
When they rushed down the steps and arrived at a relatively open lower plaza of the temple, the sight before them made everyone gasp.
The place was a mess, with severed limbs and bodies scattered everywhere. Blood stained almost every tile. The explorers and outlaws from various countries who had rushed into the temple earlier were now almost all cold corpses!
In the center of the square, the three-headed, four-armed, and ferocious Asura phantom was even more solid than before, and the bloodthirsty pressure it emitted was terrifyingly powerful, almost reaching the level of an external landscape!
Within the phantom's four arms, the four Asura Blood Swords, formed entirely from killing and bloodlust, solidified completely. The swords hummed, and each swing brought forth a terrifying blood-red sword light that tore through space, radiating an undeniable level of destructive power!
At this moment, this killing machine is attacking the French National Team, which has just retreated from another passage.
Most of the French team members were utterly helpless against this phantom of Asura.
The crimson sword light was merely the aftershock of a sweeping attack, yet it sent two French team members who were trying to defend flying backwards, coughing up blood and suffering broken bones!
Screams rose and fell, they were like lambs to the slaughter!
"Outdoor Killer Move: Thunderclap of the Four Seasons, Explode!"
Just then, a roar filled with shock and anger rang out!
The disciple of the Thunder Saint, Chaos, was bathed in raging lightning, his golden hair standing on end.
The ornately designed battle blade in his hand drew forth a sky full of lightning, unleashing a destructive burst of power as it fiercely slashed at one of the crimson sword beams that was aimed at him.
Thunder roared and lightning flashed!
This strike actually blocked a blood sword attack of the level of an exterior view!
The raging lightning and the filthy blood energy collided and annihilated each other, and the resulting shockwaves shaved the ground down a layer!
"Tsk!" Wei Ying frowned, commenting, "This guy is annoying, but this External Lightning Blade—it's really powerful, domineering and fierce, actually able to withstand an External Lightning attack head-on?"
Many members of the Great Xia Kingdom team also showed surprise. The attack power displayed by this strike had already surpassed the scope of ordinary martial artists at the Intent Realm and touched the power of the Outer Realm. No wonder the person was so arrogant.
However, before Chaos could catch his breath, the other two arms of the Asura phantom suddenly swung!
Both swords are drawn simultaneously!
Two crimson sword beams, thicker and more bloody than before, imbued with boundless resentment, crossed and tore through the sky, instantly slashing towards Chaos!
Chaos's pupils contracted sharply, and for the first time, a solemn expression appeared on his face. He roared, desperately squeezing out all the lightning spiritual power within his body, even at the cost of burning himself, and unleashed two more "Four Seasons Thunderclap" strikes.
"boom!!!"
A terrifying explosion rang out!
His lightning blade's aura shattered after only a few breaths against the two Asura Blood Swords. Although the remaining crimson sword light still struck him, its power was greatly reduced after being annihilated by the two lightning blades.
"puff!"
Chaos was struck as if by a mountain; blood gushed from his mouth as if it were free, and his armor cracked under the strain.
He was sent flying backward like a broken sack, crashing heavily into the stone wall behind him and embedding himself in it. Countless bones in his body were broken, and he was clearly suffering from considerable injuries.
As he felt the injuries within his body, confusion and anger involuntarily surfaced in his mind:
"Why—why has an enemy of this level appeared—team leader—why haven't you made a move yet!"
High in the sky, above the clouds.
Upon witnessing this scene, the manager of the French team thought to himself:
This battle will at least make Chaos more cautious and obedient in the World Martial Arts Tournament in January. He was already quite satisfied, and with lightning crackling around him, he was about to make a move to save people.
"Sir, it would be best if you remained here to observe the battle."
Professor Xu appeared silently, pushed up his glasses, and the lenses reflected a calm gleam.
"Xu! Does your Great Xia want to persecute the Federation's genius?" The French team leader's expression changed upon hearing this, and lightning appeared around him.
Karls was, after all, Lei Sheng's disciple, a top genius who was highly respected throughout the entire Western Alliance.
He could use the Asura clan to teach them a lesson, but if something really happened, he would be finished.
Professor Xu's expression remained calm, yet his tone carried a strange certainty: "That's not my intention. I simply believe that our Great Xia Kingdom's captain can handle a mere Asura of this level."
"What? You mean that? How could he—"
Before the French tour leader could finish speaking, "Screech!!"
A clear, majestic cry of the Vermilion Bird suddenly resounded from the temple below, echoing across the surrounding area!
Immediately afterwards, a scorching and vast, terrifying will that seemed capable of burning away the entire world surged into the sky!
Below, Li Xijun had somehow leaped into the air, his body ablaze with dazzling golden-red Vermilion Bird Divine Flame. His power was in no way inferior to that of the Asura phantom!
He formed the Vermilion Bird Seal in his hand and slowly presented it to the hideous Asura phantom.
Endless flames converged wildly, transforming into a condensed, crimson-gold flame that seemed to be composed of countless Vermilion Bird runes. Wherever it passed, space distorted and everything was consumed in flames!
"Vermilion Bird Burning Heaven Seal!"
This punch transformed into a fiery stream that tore through the heavens and earth, carrying the determination to incinerate everything. It instantly pierced through the void, turning the three-headed, four-armed Asura phantom into ashes!
At this moment, everyone who witnessed this attack, whether they were members of the Great Xia team or the French team leader in the sky, was filled with utter shock!
