Chapter 300: The Royal Road (4700)

Nuclear weapons are one of the ultimate forces of humanity. The last time nuclear weapons were detonated in actual combat in human history was August 9, 1945. Before this, no one realized that just such a small weapon could kill hundreds of thousands of people.

And since then, this terrifying weapon has been pushed forward time and time again by advancing technology. Its lethality has increased day by day, and now no one knows what level it has reached...

But not including today.

Because someone, or some people, or driven by some unknown will, the ultimate weapon used only for mutual deterrence was finally launched crazily.

So, is there anything in this world that can counter them?

I don't know, but this is worth a try.

This ultimate weapon that could kill millions in an instant, a nuclear bomb with at least over a hundred million tons of equivalent, stood in front of it before falling—three foolish brothers.

Somewhere in the world, the three brothers of Beidou came here in unison, attempting to crush all this with their own power.

They stood straight, motionless, their muscles solid, their bodies well-proportioned, each filling the heaven and earth, radiating a towering momentum like an unshakable mountain range. On their slightly clenched fists, magical colors flashed faintly. They controlled the most terrifying power in the world, and their eyes all bloomed with light like the sun.

Since knowing the moment of this destruction, they had been waiting, waiting, enduring, continuing to endure... grinding their power, fist techniques, and determination without stopping for a moment, waiting for the arrival of this great catastrophe.

And the closer it got to this day, the more their potential was forced out. The power that had been sleeping for thousands of years began to revive like a volcano, and the abilities they mastered began to break through upward like a spiral that never stopped.

18-year-old Kenshiro, 24-year-old healthy Toki, 25-year-old Fist King Raoh, each was in the youngest and peak state, tall, powerful, strong and invincible, showing the strongest appearance in their lives, invincible and victorious.

Whims, predicting the future, inexhaustible energy, heaven and man connection... all kinds of incredible abilities appeared on them, and all kinds of incredible illusions appeared around them.

Whoever in this world saw the three brothers now would tremble and bow down, because their existence undoubtedly represented the destiny of this heaven and earth.

Finally, the scarlet Star of Death hung in the night sky, reflecting the first nuclear bomb that was about to arrive, descending from the sky with the phantom of death and a dark will. And the first moment they saw that "thing," the three brothers understood—it was not enough! Their current power was not enough!

So...

"Power, I command you to come out!!!" x3

The destiny star of Beidou, and the stars of the Southern Heaven region, began to shine at a crazy frequency. The power of the stars, the power of the sky, and the power of endless martial artists of the past were continuously injected into their bodies, wanting to fight side by side with them.

Their combat power was skyrocketing at extreme speed. In the blink of an eye, they broke through the critical point. Every breath of power was increasing by multiples, climbing exponentially!

"Brothers, I'll go first..."

The young man first pinched his right fist with his left hand, then pinched his left fist with his right hand. His bones made a crunching sound, and finally he twisted his neck. He jumped into the void without any hesitation, turning into a fierce stream of light, rushing straight into the sky.

"The fist of Raoh bestowed by heaven..."

Roaring, the Fist King's body was also changing. The aura on his body became heavy. His body seemed to be pulling up, growing larger with every breath. A momentum that wanted to step everything in the world under his feet appeared rapidly, and then he swung his giant fist that was invincible and destroyed the world.

"Ancestors of Beidou... my wish..."

Even facing such a situation, Toki's expression was still peaceful and calm, but the vigorous fighting qi wrapped around Toki. His state was also unprecedentedly excellent, and his palms were condensing the proof of his past existence.

The sky seemed to be boiling, the void was constantly twisting, and starlight was pouring down continuously.

The next instant, three terrifying energy light pillars, three figures without hesitation, pierced through the night sky and slammed into the nuclear warhead that started the process of destroying the world.

Fair and square, without dodging or avoiding, punching the sky!

At the moment of collision, the metal shell uncontrollably expanded, white light shot out from it, and the next moment it turned into a huge fireball, completely swallowing the surrounding space and swallowing the three brothers.

Earth-shattering explosions and shockwaves, wind pressure of thousands of meters per second, swept across this night sky. As long as it fell on the ground, it could crush everything on the road in an instant, whether it was buildings, humans, or everything beautiful, all would be destroyed.

This shocking scene was clearly witnessed by everyone on the ground, and they were terrified and trembling.

But at the same time as the deafening thunder and earth-shattering roar resounded through the clouds, various powerful fighting qi also flew up from various places on the ground! All kinds of roars, laughter, and growls erupted from the martial artists of Nandou and Beidou who were prepared—

"Hakura Messho, kill!"

"Eat my Muryu Karetsuha!!"

"Beidou Ryuken Ultimate Technique—Anryu Tenha!!"

"The phoenix of the sky will not land! My Thouzer's Phoenix Fist is the strongest fist! Tensho Juji Ho!"

"Nandou Suicho/Kokucho/Hakuro/Kacho/Kacho/Socho ultimate technique! Go all out! Fly to the firmament! Fight to the end for me!"

A burst of massive fighting spirit covered and closed the sky. Ultimate techniques that were powerful and peerless were used. The eroded space was reversed, gravity was chaotic, and all impacts were reversed, flowing back to the firmament, piercing the starry sky.

Dazzling red light appeared in the night sky, making the entire firmament and starry sky look as if they had been gouged out alive, trembling desperately.

And the martial artists on the ground were fighting desperately, while Raoh, Toki, and Kenshiro, who were at the center of the nuclear explosion, were bearing pressure a thousand times greater than them. The three gritted their teeth to resist the high temperature, high heat, radiation, shockwaves, and light brought by the nuclear explosion.

The surroundings had been covered by the white light of the nuclear explosion, and the whole world became silent after that short loud noise, as if it were a completely static world.

The deadly radiation and hundreds of thousands or even millions of degrees of high temperature at the center of the nuclear explosion could not be survived by any living thing. Even if that invincible Turning Dragon Fighting Qi operated in a way that exceeded the limit and was unreasonable, it could only allow them to barely support it.

And what was desperate was that this was just the beginning.

The next instant, through the heavy nuclear flames, the starry sky was crowded with nuclear bombs that followed one after another, seemingly making the vast, boundless firmament crowded and blocked.

At this moment, the end of the century truly revealed its fangs.

These nuclear bombs in the sky were like meteor showers, slowly streaking across the night sky, looking neither fast nor slow, as if laughing at these foolish men who were doing useless work.

Human cities only occupied 3% of the Earth's surface area, but these nuclear bombs going in all directions were going to cleanse the globe, shatter the surface, evaporate the seas, as if boundless stars were falling, carrying the majestic pressure of crashing continental plates, pouring down from all sides.

With such quantity, such number, and such terrifying power, how could these martial artists fighting with fists resist? How could they block it?

"If you have any opinion about the world, come at me!"

"The history we are about to create is burning fiercely!"

"If you deviate from the path, you will be ridiculed by the sky!"

Their bodies represented the will of "Beidou," but the destruction of the world was also a kind of "Heavenly Will." Two grand wills were manifesting between heaven and earth, using their hands to wrestle with each other.

So—it descended.

A giant wave that could make the whole world stumble and rise, on this darkest night, descended with the strongest incarnation.

The towering dharma image that rolled up huge waves with every gesture, even setting off peerless tsunamis and destroying everything, descended after breaking through the void behind the three brothers.

Legend says martial artists have "Five Realms of Borrowing Images," the first realm "Hypnotizing Oneself," the second realm "Image Born from Intention," the third realm "Image Following the Heart," as well as the fourth realm "Heavenly Demon Transformation," and the fifth realm "Heart Illusion as One Wishes."

And strong spiritual power condenses a "formless and imageless thing" in the sea of consciousness, and can even achieve temporary separation. In Taoism, it is called Yang God, in Buddhism, it is called supernatural power, and in Mantra Esoteric Buddhism, ancient Yoga, Jewish mysticism, and Islamic Sufism, it is called astral projection.

Most people who practice Nandou pursue such a high-level realm, letting their will manifest outside and descend into the world. But they could see that what was manifesting behind these Beidou three brothers now was not something like "Borrowing Images," but some more magnificent and towering thing!

It was the descent of those existences flowing in myths who had once accepted their faith across worlds!

A thousand meters... ten thousand meters...?

Those three towering figures already made it impossible for people to accurately judge their size.

This was perhaps the strongest transformation technique in history.

The angry Raoh raised his giant palm and pressed it in the air, as if pulling down the sky, an invincible fist that seemed to crush the firmament.

—Ultimate Technique Fist King Heaven-Falling Strike!

The calm Toki opened his six arms, and the six eyes in his palms opened in unison. Six energy shockwaves, thousands of times larger, swept across the universe.

—"Friendship Face-Breaking" sweeps the world!

Kenshiro, whose body was dominated by belief, the woman statue shed tears slowly, and instead produced a thousand thin arms, but threw out a thousand strongest killing moves.

—Beidou Tensho Hyakuretsu Ken!

Boom boom boom boom boom boom boom!!!!

The three dharma images that could blast away all obstacles caught up with the countless nuclear bombs attacking the world in one-thousandth of a second. One thousand, ten thousand, each at least over ten million equivalent weapons, were swept away in an instant between the Asian and American continents, over the Pacific Ocean, under the gaze of the ancient stars.

Huge fireballs floated in the atmosphere, the temperature of the entire planet was rising, the ecological circle of the entire surface was blowing with scorching hurricanes. They used a barbaric to the extreme, yet irresistible posture, completely entering the field of vision of all humans in the world.

The flames and momentum wrapped around their bodies withered, the starlight dimmed, as if everything had been exhausted, gone, and drained. And the phantoms behind the three became extremely weak, but the chaotic sky also quieted down.

They... seemed to have won?

But, the light of the Star of Death suppressed all stars at the moment when joy was about to rise, coldly and ruthlessly informing all living beings on this land that what they had done was meaningless.

Because at the next moment, the next second—"Apocalypse-class Nuclear Weapon · Heavenly Emperor's Thunder," descended.

The limit of nuclear weapon destructive power, the ultimate nuclear bomb capable of destroying the world in an instant, surpassed everything in the past, the planetary cleansing weapon capable of completely cutting off the planet's history, human civilization, and the fate of all living beings, finally launched at the last moment, and also shattered the last hope.

And the history of the entire planet would be completely rewritten.

And after witnessing the birth of the "Heavenly Emperor's Thunder," everyone's eyes lost their light... The condensed power, the hope in their hearts, the awareness in their chests, gradually collapsed and disintegrated, like building blocks that were kicked over, spreading out bit by bit.

"There is no salvation..."

Yuria, who was originally dominated by some will, the incarnation of the Compassionate Mother Star, who possessed the power to predict and heal people's hearts, had been praying in her heart anxiously.

Struggle and pain appeared on her pale face, her closed eyes trembled, as if crying but not crying, because she had truly seen that desperate future—

Burning blue planet.

All broken hills.

Rusty sky.

Everyone is crying.

Except...

"Haaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!"

Someone was still roaring angrily, it was—Kenshiro, Toki, Raoh, they were still fighting!

The Compassionate Mother Star was praying on the other side of the earth, but she knew that the three brothers would fail. Everything they did would be in vain. The originally wavering future finally became desperate after the appearance of the "Heavenly Emperor's Thunder."

They fought to this day because they couldn't bear that future, but if they directly confronted the "Heavenly Emperor's Thunder," they would definitely disappear...

That is to say, this action was a complete failure, but...

—Miracle, miracle appear quickly!

The girl couldn't help but think so.

Little known was that Yuria had been granted power by heaven since she was a child. While seeing other people's sadness, she could predict that person's future.

The original her was about to be crushed by the endless "sad" future seen by her eyes, afraid of her own "power other than strength," afraid of the future without a future, the Compassionate Mother Star who could neither move forward nor retreat, unable to bear everyone's love and expectations.

... Sighing for her own incompetence in being unable to change fate... but! Even in such a desperate present, there were so many people fighting desperately!

All terror, all despair could not make them take half a step back, let alone extinguish the fighting spirit in their hearts. Even if they were to lose, to be defeated, they would only die in this confrontation...

Because such people existed, the girl prayed, for the sake of going to that tomorrow that had not yet been seen!

Even if I am not loved by anyone in this life, it doesn't matter!

—So let a miracle happen!

—Let a miracle happen!!!

—Let a miracle happen!!!! ！！

"Huh? Brat, what are you crying for?"

A familiar frivolous voice sounded in front of the girl. Several years ago, the girl named Yuria had heard this voice!

That time, she asked him to save her brother Kenshiro.

This time, she still had to ask him to save his brothers.

Your brothers, the one person whose future the Compassionate Mother Star could never see, the third son of Beidou—

Jagi, is online!

And hearing that person's voice,

Feeling his aura.

"Hahahahaha!"

The originally weak flames on the three brothers, accompanied by their unbridled laughter, stretched their bodies, set up their stances, and once again rose crazily, abnormally, and violently!

And then—Jagi also clenched his fists, a huge dharma image suddenly appeared behind him, and the light of the Star of Death vanished instantly behind his back.

"Holy Spirit, unfold!!!"

Frenzy-Mid-Rank · Great Earth Jagi, descends!!!

(End of chapter) ===== CHAPTER 301 =====

And then—Jia Ji also clenched his fists, and a gigantic dharma image suddenly emerged behind him, the light of the star of death instantly vanishing from his back.

"Holy Spirit, unfold!!!"

Frenzy Mid-Rank, Great Earth Jia Ji, descends with a boom!!!
