The roar of the Yellow Wind Qilin beneath her shook the clouds, and the hurricane whipped up by its thunderous hooves caused the banners of Song and Liang to sway wildly. The eighteen-foot steel spear in her hand blazed with fiery red flames, and as the tassel swung, sparks transformed into hundreds of fire crows that soared into the sky. When she rode alone straight through the Liangshan camp, the grass within a radius of ten feet was scorched into scorched earth.
"Fire!!!"
Liangshan was also wary of Lu Junyi's power. In an instant, the attention of a large number of musketeers was focused on Lu Junyi, and they launched a concentrated attack on her. Amidst the continuous explosions, countless musket pellets rained down on the gilded armor. Although they could crack and shatter the armor, the remaining force was not enough to tear apart Lu Junyi's Qilin fire scales. Those crimson dragon scales that outlined the celestial patterns deflected all the pellets into a rain of molten iron.
The defense of the yellow wind qilin she rode was equally terrifying. Before the bullets could even touch her, they were blown off course by the gale or had their force reduced, making it impossible to penetrate her yellow wind scales that carried the ancient sands of Loulan!
Before the smoke from the first volley of fire had cleared, the terrifying golden figure broke through the formation and charged in. The Yellow Wind Qilin rampaged through the Liangshan army.
Lu Junyi swept his steel spear across, sending three heavily armored soldiers flying like kites with broken strings! The spear crashed down, smashing over a large number of Liangshan muskets.
"Urgent! Urgent! Urgent! Urgent! Suo Chao, the Vanguard, is here!!!"
At this moment, Suo Chao was closest to Lu Junyi, so he was the first to rush forward to intercept and engage him. The white mist exhaled by his yellow horse as it neighed condensed into a vengeful skull, and the terrifying cold light flowing from the golden axe blade tore through the air, emitting bursts of ghostly howls! In the destructive charge, the blood-red cloak tore out a ten-mile-long river, blotting out the sky and the sun—it was not cloth at all, but clearly solidified vengeful blood energy, soaring into the sky. As the blood waves surged and rolled, hundreds and thousands of distorted human faces and tens of thousands of deformed and broken arms were revealed!
"clang!!!"
The trajectory of the falling axe blade tore through the sky, and the earth and rocks on both sides were corroded into blood-red rotten soil by the Khorne's malevolent energy. The flying fragments of iron exploded in mid-air like a swarm of poisonous bees! The moment the golden axe collided with the steel spear, the shockwave formed by the collision of the two enormous forces tore through the ground beneath them like a storm, exploding into the sky and the earth. The thunderous sound of brass colliding with steel made everyone within ten meters's ears ring and blood flow freely!
“Come again, come again!!!”
Suo Chao raised his golden axe, the size of an adult, and slammed it down on Lu Junyi like a storm, but she parried it perfectly every time, and it couldn't hit her at all!
After defending for several rounds, Lu Junyi figured out Suo Chao's style: he had no style at all. So he deliberately exposed his left arm, and Suo Chao's eyes lit up, thinking that this man had finally made a mistake in blocking. The veins on his arms bulged, blood patterns appeared on the axe, and the long river of blood behind him stirred up a blood-red storm in the sky! He swung the golden axe in a wide arc and used all his strength to unleash a powerful move to split Mount Hua!
The gilded battle axe suddenly accelerated, transforming into a golden arc of destruction. Before anyone could react, the sharp blade was already embedded deeply in Lu Junyi's left shoulder!
"Kill her! Vanguard!"
"With that move, Captain, you could split both man and horse in two!"
"Colorful! Colorful! Colorful!!!"
At this moment, the Liangshan soldiers watching cheered! But when the smoke cleared, everyone was dumbfounded—Suo Chao's axe was truly terrifying, directly cleaving and smashing Lu Junyi's left shoulder armor. The bronze beast-shaped armor and gilded armor plates fell to the ground like raindrops, splashing up mud and dust everywhere.
However, the golden axe couldn't even scratch Lu Junyi's protective fire scales! This precious axe, capable of cleaving through metal and iron, couldn't even break through Lu Junyi's innate dragon blood talent!
卢俊义自信一笑，自己的龙血能力足足提供12点天生护甲、鎏金战甲又提供13点盔甲防御、40敏捷更是提供15点格挡招架、再加上自己的宝玉奇物提供13点无名防御加值，自己的防御高达53！并且足足叠加了33伤害减免，任何攻击打在自己身上，伤害都要先减少33再说。
With such an exaggerated defensive setup, you think a mere mere warrior can break through my defenses?! Dream on!!!
Suo Chao looked astonished and blank, unable to believe that his all-out attack had failed to break Lu Junyi's defense.
Not only that, but at this moment, the steel spear in Lu Junyi's hand burst forth with billions of rays of blazing light! The humming vibration of the spear shaft even drowned out the sounds of battle. Countless crimson flames flew out of Lu Junyi's body, swirling, dancing, and shrieking around the entire steel spear, transforming into a towering spiral that shot into the sky!
The moment the steel spear was raised above his brow, the clouds above the entire battlefield were torn into spiraling heavenly staircases by the erupting holy fire, each staircase reflecting the bloody phantoms of China's millennia-long wars! From afar, a burning towering divine pagoda appeared above Lu Junyi's head, with a full twelve stories.
Normally, the Heavenly Gang Slash of a chivalrous hero only has five levels, but Liu Hong and Lu Zhisheng are special cases, extending the upper limit to seven levels.
Lu Junyi's Heavenly Gang Slash can reach up to twelve levels.
"Heavenly! Divine! Slash!!!"
The moment Lu Junyi roared and unleashed the Heavenly Gang Slash, the blazing tower wrapped around the spearhead collapsed with a deafening roar, and countless flames poured down as if the sky had collapsed and the earth had caved in! The entire space crumbled like a painting being burned away. What collapsed was not just the blazing tower, but the cascading solar prominences of a star exploding, the fiery waterfall of the Golden Crow Brahma, falling from the sky with an earth-shattering force!
In an instant, all that remained before Suo Chao's eyes was a raging inferno. His brass armor, heated to a scalding temperature and softened by the Brahma Fire, dripped with molten copper. His steed, engulfed in the flames, instantly turned to charred flesh and blood, becoming ashes.
Before she even landed, Lu Junyi's Heavenly Gang Slash sent her flying! Her armor shattered and exploded, and by the time she hit the ground, it had completely melted and fallen away, revealing large patches of her fair skin scorched and burned. Even the golden axe in her hand had turned a terrifyingly bright white in the intense heat—a sign that the metal had been heated to its limit and was about to melt and be destroyed.
"Oh? It actually withstood my full-power Heavenly Gang Slash? Interesting."
Seeing that Suo Chao was still alive, Lu Junyi was also very surprised. The raging flames once again surrounded the steel spear and soared into the sky, transforming into a magnificent twelve-story tower, ready to unleash a second Heavenly Gang Slash!
Chapter 162: Wu Yong's Clever Defeat of the Armored Cavalry (Bonus Chapter at 2600 Words!)
"Quickly, save Suo Chao!"
Liu Hong's face turned pale with horror. Lu Junyi was too overpowered. The Dragon Blood ability granted her invincible defensive capabilities, Professor Zhou Tong's spear and staff techniques made her martial arts the best in Hebei, the Demon Prince gave her the same speed advantage as Yue Fei, and then the twelve chivalrous professions brought her twelve layers of Heavenly Gang Slash, which brought her burst damage to an extremely terrifying peak!
Lu Zhisheng's advantages are immense strength, high health, and high defense.
Lin Chong's advantage lies in the fact that, among all martial arts, speed is the only way to win.
Wu Song's advantage lies in his ability to unleash terrifying damage capable of instantly killing a dragon under certain extreme circumstances.
Liu Hong is still in his growth stage; at best, he can be considered a well-rounded individual.
Lu Junyi, on the other hand, is a true all-rounder who combines the strengths and advantages of all of the above, with no weaknesses whatsoever!
Lin Chong also felt that Lu Junyi was a tough enemy. In the last battle, she did not use the Heavenly Gang Slash. She was actually holding back.
But there was no other way, so Lin Chong had to bite the bullet and charge forward. His eighteen-foot spear moved like a dragon, and he approached like a storm, instantly entangled with Lu Junyi's eighteen-foot steel spear. With the boost from his charge and the advantage of a sudden sneak attack, he shook Lu Junyi's steel spear and forcefully knocked the crimson fire tower that pierced the sky off course by three inches. It was this three-inch deviation caused by the collapse of the star map that turned the world-burning fire that was originally locked on Suo Chao's brow into an out-of-control tidal wave of flames, grazing Suo Chao's left shoulder and blasting him away!
In an instant, the entire sky was ignited by the collapsed, fiery tower, transforming into a blazing inferno. The entire earth crumbled and shattered in the flames. The crimson breath that brushed past them vaporized the pond and tax plate a few meters away into a towering white rainbow, and falling sparks rained down like a storm, blotting out the sun and turning the sky a fiery red!
Lu Junyi turned around and saw that it was Lin Chong again. He felt a surge of annoyance and his steel spear blazed for the third time. With the exquisite and profound technique of "Hundred Birds Paying Homage to the Phoenix", he unleashed the unparalleled domineering power of the Heavenly Gang Slash! The twelve-story blazing pagoda rose up like a phantom of a god, connecting the sky and the earth, and crashed down on Lin Chong as if the sky were collapsing and the earth were sinking!
The instant the hairs on the back of Lin Chong's neck stood on end, his eighteen-foot spear instinctively pierced three inches into the ground. His abdominal muscles exploded with a sound like a bowstring twang, and he used the springy momentum of the bent spear shaft to leap forward. The rubble that flew as his tiger-like claws scraped the ground formed a fan-shaped barrier behind him! As the Heavenly Gang Blaze grazed the tips of her claws, the sound of her pink flesh and white tiger fur curling and carbonizing in the intense heat was clearly audible! He dodged the Heavenly Gang Slash like a storm.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!!!"
Seeing that Lin Chong had actually dodged his seemingly inevitable attack, Lu Junyi was greatly impressed. He swept his eighteen-foot steel spear horizontally, completely altering the trajectory of the Qilin Heavenly Gang Slash. A massive wave of fiery energy erupted from the ground, continuing its pursuit of Lin Chong. The terrifying fire melted the armored corpses several meters away into molten iron. The Liangshan soldiers and Northern Song troops fled this hellish battleground of unparalleled masters. Even someone as fast as Lin Chong had his left-hand armor turning a dark red. Within the churning trajectory, seven ring-shaped air bubbles exploded in succession—vacuum bubbles formed by the rapid, directional changes in air.
Helpless, Lin Chong continued her rapid charge like a storm. As the beast's claw touched the ground for the thirteenth time, the final burst of fiery wind grazed her spine, burning the Qilin Devouring Beast shoulder armor into dripping copper tears. She had finally completed this series of evasive maneuvers that surpassed human limits, directly dodging Lu Junyi's close-range Heavenly Gang Slash!
"Good skill!"
Lu Junyi looked at Lin Chong with admiration. In so many years, this was the first person to withstand his Heavenly Gang Slash. Although she used skillful dodging rather than brute force to block, it was still quite remarkable. Why did this person seem so familiar? She also used the Hundred Birds Paying Homage to the Phoenix Spear Technique. Could it be Junior Sister Lin?
"Good work!"
Lin Chong looked at Lu Junyi with admiration; this was a truly formidable opponent! She also recognized Lu Junyi; although they had learned martial arts at different times, they had occasionally met when visiting their master.
Unfortunately, they cannot recognize each other on the battlefield. If he were to say that she was his senior sister, and the Song army overheard this, Lu Junyi's life would be over.
At this moment, Wen Da also led more than two hundred Song cavalrymen to charge over in a mighty procession. The instant Wu Yong waved his goose feather fan and Gongsun Sheng shattered the nine talismans with his sword, a gale swept in from the horizon along with the feather fan, and the rumbling thunder in the clouds rolled and surged along with the trajectory of the talisman fragments.
In an instant, the magic they unleashed together altered the heavens. A fierce wind swept up dark clouds that blotted out the sun, and the rain almost instantly turned into a downpour! The muddy ground was completely soaked! Wu Yong and Gongsun Sheng were not satisfied; they even mobilized the Ji River on both sides of the land bridge to irrigate the plains, turning the entire land into a swamp that devoured horses' hooves in an instant!
At this moment, Wen Da's Song army encountered a hellish challenge. The torrential rain instantly soaked their armor, and their wet battle robes clung to their bodies, cold and uncomfortable. Their charging speed was getting slower and slower, and it was becoming increasingly difficult for their horses to pull their hooves out of the mud. The oncoming gale even made it impossible for them to open their eyes!
The first to sink in were three armored warhorses, their iron-clad hooves suddenly coming to life as the five-inch-thick mud clung to them. As the 1,200-pound Hexi horse neighed and knelt on the ground, its belly scales were instantly filled with mud, turning it into an iron coffin.
The subsequent chain reaction of collisions triggered by the cavalry's panicked reins in was even more deadly! One after another, cavalrymen became stuck in the mud, unable to move; one warhorse after another lost its balance and fell to the ground; some even strayed into the muddy swamp, where the mud even submerged the horses' limbs and swallowed the cavalrymen's feet! At this point, the two hundred cavalrymen were no longer capable of charging into battle or smashing through the Liangshan army's formation; simply escaping this death trap that Wu Yong had painstakingly created specifically for them was already their limit!
Not only that, the Liangshan troops blocking the land bridge also began to fight back. After the first wave of gunpowder explosions resounded through the sky, Wen Da was still yelling for his men to abandon their horses. But these Hebei lads mounted their horses and broke away on foot.
But at that very moment, a large number of steel arrows from the defected Damingfu River Guard were already pouring down amidst the torrential rain! Fire lances also exploded in the humid air, sending out bursts of iron bullets enveloped in water mist, bombarding the Northern Song cavalry who were stuck in the mud and struggling to move forward.
In an instant, the fragments of shattered iron armor, the slag from white bones, and the gushing blood from wounds were all diluted by the mud and water in mid-air into ochre-colored death fireworks!
The only drawback was that in this terrible weather of strong winds and torrential rain, the misfire rate of Liangshan's firearms began to rise significantly, and the bows and arrows of the Damingfu River Guard were also weakened by the rain, resulting in a noticeable decrease in power.
But it didn't matter. The heavy cavalry of the Northern Song Dynasty was even worse off. More than two hundred men were stuck in the mud and were slaughtered like live targets by the musketeers and archers of Liangshan!
Chapter 163: The Unforgiving Thunder General Appears
For a moment, the entire Song army was screaming, wailing, and weeping in the mud. These experts, mostly at level six, were generally weaklings with no special abilities, relying solely on their shields and armor to withstand the attacks. Arrows pierced their shields, causing their left arms to ache and itch unbearably, like being bitten by ants. Iron bullets pierced their armor, leaving them mangled and bloodied!
"Jing Lang, the Yuan Gang Demon-Slaying General of the Thunder Palace! Obey my decree!!!"
Wen Da, who was at the forefront, had no choice but to summon the shadow of the god once again. A terrifying thunderous sound like a dragon's roar rolled from his throat, and his feet sank deep into the mud.
In an instant, the pitch-black rain-soaked sky suddenly collapsed, and a hundred thousand golden lightning bolts, like a falling Milky Way, completely engulfed him! His entire skin was covered with dense golden lightning runes, and each character exploded in the air with lotus-shaped lightning patterns as it disintegrated.
From the eye of the thunderstorm came a series of mysterious, clear chimes, and a gilded mask slowly emerged from the plasma vortex. A phantom of a lightning general, tens of meters high, blotted out the sun; its shoulder guards were carved with the heads of thunder-devouring beasts, and liquid lightning essence flowed from the gaps in the armor plates. Its boots, capable of shattering space, trailed nine chains of purple lightning. When it raised the Dragon-Swallowing Crescent Blade, forged from lightning, the lightning patterns dancing on its blade scorched death marks in the void.
"Clang! Clang! Clang!!!"
Seeing such a colossal, sky-covering thunderous beast appear on the battlefield, the attention of a large number of Liangshan soldiers was drawn to it. They all shot arrows and opened fire. However, the giant forged from thunder suddenly raised a thunder shield the size of a small mountain and stood in front of it, blocking all the flying projectiles and arrows. Wen Da was hiding in the body of this Thunder God General and was unharmed.
"You little thieves, watch me use one of the Thirty-Six Generals of the Thunder Department to send you all to heaven!!!"
Wen Da roared as he controlled the Thunder Giant, hurling his Dragon-Swallowing Crescent Blade! The instant the blade struck, the entire battlefield was cleaved into light and shadow. The Liangshan soldiers grazed by the lightning blade were instantly illuminated by the electric light, becoming translucent entities. Thousands of lightning snakes poured into their bodies, their bones and internal organs clearly visible, their faces still contorted in a ferocious expression. In the raging storm, they were burned alive to dust by the intense heat!
As the illusory figure of Lei walked, each step brought forth rings of lightning that spread across the entire battlefield. Thirty-six bronze Kui Niu drums pounded wildly behind him, the rolling thunderous sounds causing people's ears to ring and their blood to flow, as if it were divine punishment.
Most terrifying of all were his pair of thunderous double pupils—his left eye reflected the churning thunderous magma of the Nine Heavens Thunder Pool, while his right eye sealed the essence of an ancient thunder dragon. Anyone who met his gaze would experience lightning-shaped cracks appearing in their internal organs. When the general unfurled his cloak composed of three thousand thunder talismans, dark clouds within a ten-mile radius began to fall in a thunderstorm, each raindrop exploding into a spiderweb of lightning on the ground.
"Professor! Taoist priest! Continue to maintain the spell to trap these Song soldiers and prevent them from charging forward!"
Liu Hong had just rescued Suo Chao and used Star Healing to treat his injuries. Now, seeing Wen Da so fierce, impervious to bullets and arrows, and still in the mud where melee fighters couldn't get close, he had no choice but to go himself!
"Cunxiao! Charge together!"
"Ow!"
Li Cunxiao transformed into a young dragon the size of a tiger, letting out a tender dragon roar. The two of them flapped their golden wings and thunderous dragon wings, soaring into the sky like golden and blue meteors, heading straight for Thunder General Wenda!
"Where did this brat come from?!"
Wen Da roared, once again transforming the boundless golden lightning into a dragon-swallowing crescent blade. A massive lightning arm dragged this giant blade, spinning and tearing through space, creating turbulent, molten golden spatial currents. The blade energy formed from the raging lightning shone like the dazzling tail of a meteor!
"Slay! Without mercy!!!"
Wen Da roared and brought his sword down, causing thunder to rumble in all directions! This Thunder General had actually turned the tables, using the storm phenomenon altered by Wu Yong and Gongsun Sheng, to summon ten thousand bolts of lightning from the dark clouds and torrential rain, merging them with his own thunder blade, and slashing downwards together! The rolling thunderstorm crashed down on Liu Hong like the sky collapsing and the earth sinking, instantly engulfing him completely!
"dross."
Wen Da snorted coldly. Being swallowed by a thunderstorm of this scale, leaving no trace of one's body, would be the most dignified way to die. He immediately changed his target and began to deal with Li Cunxiao—this one was more troublesome. Although he was a young dragon, he was still a Shatuo Blue Dragon, immune to lightning, and he would have to defeat him with pure force.
Thinking of this, Wen Da stretched out his enormous hand, intending to grab Li Cunxiao and crush her to death with pure violence. But at that moment, Liu Hong suddenly flew out from the aftershocks of the thunderstorm! He used an expansion technique, instantly transforming into a five-meter-tall giant. His pair of golden wings, also magnified twice as large, shrieked as they tore through the sky, creating a triple sonic boom cloud that even cleaved the entire rain curtain, tearing a molten golden wound in the rain. The scorching air waves left by his dive plowed the muddy ground, leaving scorched marks.
The dragon-coiled staff, imbued with pure violence and six magnificent celestial rivers, along with the divine might of eight demon lords, slammed down upon Wen Da! The Thunder General's armor, forged from lightning, first dented with a fist-sized indentation, then shattered section by section along the patterns of the Big Dipper's protective mirror. The flying armor fragments were melted into a crimson meteor shower in mid-air by the intense heat of friction. The muddy ground beneath the Thunder General's feet first rippled with immense waves, then cracked and shattered like a spider web. The resulting ring-shaped shockwave directly pulverized the mud within a hundred paces!
"how is this possible?"
Wen Da was shocked. He couldn't understand how Liu Hong could survive the thunderstorm. He had no idea how high Liu Hong's magic resistance was. Li Cunxiao had given him the ability to be immune to lightning.
At that moment, Li Cunxiao roared and charged from the front, suddenly swooping down and flying forward, his sharp dragon claws digging deep into the thunder giant's wrist. Then the entire dragon continued to rush forward, tearing five horrific wounds across the thunder general's arm, causing golden lightning and silver thunderbolts to spray everywhere!
Liu Hong was not overjoyed at his successful attack; instead, he was worried. He had just used Dive Charge, Hundred Birds Paying Homage to the Phoenix, and Sixfold Heavenly Gang Slash at the same time, unleashing his full power. However, the effect was that he only managed to shatter Lei Jiang's armor. Wen Da, who was completely encased in Lei Jiang's body, remained unharmed.
Chapter 164: Seven Kills Emerge, Stars Fall
"You little thief! It seems your lightning resistance is quite high? But what good is that? My demon messenger is Jing Lang, the Yuan Gang Demon-Slaying General of the Thunder Palace, one of the thirty-six generals of the Thunder Department! Your attacks can't even get past His defenses, so how could they possibly harm me?!"
Wen Da, hiding inside Lei Jiang's body, laughed heartily. The thunderous lightning instantly reforged Lei Jiang's body—this body was originally composed of elements, and all the damage and destruction caused by Liu Hong and Li Cunxiao could be reforged by the lightning!
Liu Hong frowned. This one of the thirty-six Thunder Generals was indeed worthy of its reputation. It seemed that even if he fought outside for a lifetime, it would be difficult to break through the Thunder General's defense. He wondered how long Wen Da could summon this thing. Lu Fang and Guo Sheng could also summon the same thing, but they could only maintain it for six seconds. Wen Da, on the other hand, had maintained it for more than ten seconds and still looked calm and collected. He couldn't figure out his trump card.
"Cunxiao! Fighting from outside won't work, we need to find a way to break in!"
With no other option, Liu Hong used his speed advantage to quickly create distance, then plunged into the thunderclouds to conceal himself. He then swiftly flew behind Wen Da and launched a second dive attack! The gilded wings tore through the thunderstorm sky with a second dive, and the tip of the dragon-shaped staff drew six purple light streaks in the ionosphere. When the staff shadow was less than five meters from the Thunder General's back, the shockwave had already forced the liquid thunder armor into a vortex with a diameter of ten feet!
Wen Da turned around abruptly, but it was too late. Liu Hong crashed into Lei Jiang's back. However, the flowing lightning armor actually displayed supernatural defensive properties—the crushed liquid metal lightning patterns instantly multiplied, and each layer of runes was reorganized in a fraction of a second after the collapse, constantly absorbing lightning and healing at the speed of light!
When the Panlong Staff truly pierced the surface of the lightning armor, Liu Hong didn't feel a hard barrier, but rather a viscous liquid lightning paste: calamity-level arc-like liquid flowed back along the staff, scorching the muscles in his arms with charred meridian patterns. From the lightning breach pierced by the Panlong Staff, a heavy mercury-like substance, typical of liquid lightning pools, gushed forth. This silvery-white metallic fluid, like a heavy swamp in the air, seemed to use the momentum of the charge to drag Liu Hong into the lightning general's body and refine him alive!
"I see, so you're immune to lightning, kid."
Seeing Liu Hong, who was trapped in the liquid lightning armor and was completely unharmed, Wen Da understood the other party's abilities.
"But are you immune to this?!"
A burst of lightning exploded in Wen Da's pupils, and the core of the illusory lightning general suddenly collapsed into a white-hot core—it wasn't lightning at all, but a purgatory furnace forcibly compressed 100,000 bolts of lightning to their limit! At this moment, rolling heat waves spread in all directions along the gilded lightning armor, each drop of liquid lightning surging with corona fire waves comparable to the blazing sun, instantly evaporating all the moisture from Liu Hong's lips, causing them to crack and shatter under the dry, hot air.
Boiling thunder and fire climbed and bit along the patterns on Liu Hong's gilded wings, burning them to a blazing white, even dripping with molten gold. The air within several meters was burned into twisted, transparent pythons, and the muddy ground melted into crimson vortexes. The torrential rain was instantly dried into scorching water droplets just a meter away from Liu Hong's body.
This terrifying heatwave was so intense that even Li Cunxiao had to avoid it; she was only immune to lightning, not flames.
However, Liu Hong was already trapped in the liquid lightning magma and unable to move. Retreating now would likely invite an even more terrifying pursuit from Wen Da. He made a snap decision, deciding to go all in. He brandished the dragon-coiled staff bound by the black dragon of Jidu, roaring, howling, and screaming as he continued his charge forward!
This thunder giant is huge, but it's hollow! It only has a layer of lightning plasma armor as thick as an arm on the surface; the inside is completely hollow! If I can squeeze inside, I can kill Wen Da's main body!
Wen Da watched Liu Hong charging forward despite the thunder and heat, and he was really afraid that the kid would break in. He quickly gathered more thunder and formed a thicker liquid thunder armor at Liu Hong's location, determined to keep him out!
At this moment, Liu Hong was truly covered in wounds. His clothes had long been burned by the heat wave, and his skin and flesh had turned to ashes in the heat. In the instant he roared, his vocal cords were vaporized into translucent quartz tubes by the high temperature. The inhaled flaming airflow formed a spiral fire drill at the bifurcation of his trachea, and 30,000 alveoli in his lungs burst into miniature incendiary bombs at the same time, creating seven rings of fire in his chest cavity.
As the muscles between the ribs carbonized into a honeycomb-like charred shell, the heart was still pumping boiling magma in vain. The moment these scarlet liquids shot out from the pores, they condensed in the air into nine hundred burning blood coral branches.
At this moment, Liu Hong disregarded everything else, enduring the pain of his entire body being melted by the flames, and forcibly used the Star Healing Technique to transform his charred body back into fresh flesh and blood, using magic to regenerate and withstand the heavenly thunder and earthly fire.
With hands that constantly destroyed and regenerated, he wielded the Dragon-Coiling Staff with all his might, churning, shattering, and blasting apart the sky full of plasma. The four dragons at the staff's tip blasted through the lightning armor with shockwaves from repeated elemental explosions. Each flap of the already melting gilded wings stirred up calamities and thunder. He squeezed in step by step, inching forward, until, after an unknown amount of time, Wen Da discovered in horror that the tip of the Dragon-Coiling Staff, carrying the shadow dragon of the Ji River, had already crashed in!
Is this even human?! A physical body that has broken through the liquid lightning armor of a lightning general?!
"Wen Da! The Great Sage Equaling Heaven is here to kill you!!!"
Amidst the agonizing cycle of destruction and rebirth, Liu Hong was now in a bloodthirsty frenzy. His body had been destroyed by lightning and fire nine times, and reborn nine times amidst the stars, exhausting all his psionic energy. His entire brain was trembling. Yet, in this extreme pain, under the intense tempering of lightning, and under the pressure of the warp creatures, Liu Hong's psionic level finally rose from 2 to 3, and his mastery of warp psionic energy advanced by leaps and bounds! Just as birds can fly and fish can swim, he mastered two even more powerful second-ring psionic abilities! The excess psionic energy continuously replenished his brain.
