Chapter 1477: Facing the Enemy with a Beauty in Arm! This Is Too Arrogant!
"Arrogant!"
Beside Chi Huang, a burly team member could no longer suppress his surging rage and shouted fiercely.
His name was Lei Ting, a Star Peak cultivator.
First level of Metal Primordial Source, Destruction Law perfected.
He was renowned in the team for his formidable offensive power.
Seeing Xu Jingming not only display such arrogance but also insult their entire squad, how could he possibly hold back?
"Xu Jingming! You're utterly contemptuous of everyone!"
Lei Ting's eyes turned bloodshot, his golden primordial energy exploding like boiling magma.
He stomped his right foot hard on the ground, shattering the dark red rock layer inch by inch.
His entire body shot forward like a cannonball, tearing through the air with a piercing shriek, straight toward Xu Jingming!
Mid-air, he clenched his hands into empty fists.
A massive warhammer, entirely formed from condensed Metal Primordial Source, materialized instantly.
The hammer exceeded three meters in length, its head grotesque as a lion's head.
Black patterns of the Destruction Law flowed across its surface, radiating an aura of invincible weight.
"Golden Lion Shatter Heaven Hammer!"
Lei Ting roared, raising the hammer overhead, drawing in the Metal Primordial Source within a radius of several kilometers in a frenzy.
Before the hammer even descended, a terrifying pressure descended like a mountain, engulfing the space.
Completely locking in the space where Xu Jingming and Yue Ying stood.
This was his signature technique, the T4-level combat art "Golden Lion Shatter Heaven Hammer"!
He had trained it to Master-level proficiency.
With full power unleashed, it was sufficient to severely wound opponents of the same rank!
Facing this thunderous strike, Xu Jingming remained standing in place, his posture as steady as a boulder.
His left hand still casually embraced Yue Ying's slender, supple waist, not loosening at all.
As if the impending attack—capable of splitting mountains and cracking rocks—were merely an insignificant breeze.
Yue Ying leaned against him, her exquisite face showing not a trace of panic.
Her gray-stone eyes calmly regarded Lei Ting as he charged forward, making no move to activate primordial energy for defense.
She had absolute trust in Xu Jingming.
Just as Lei Ting's hammer was about to strike, Xu Jingming moved.
His right hand had already gripped a completely black long spear.
Two point three meters long, its tip held a cold, unyielding gleam—his S1-level alloy weapon: Black Gold Lei Yu Spear!
Without any flashy or complex maneuvers, Xu Jingming simply lifted the spear casually, its tip angled upward.
Crack—
A thread of ultra-condensed black lightning surged from his palm, instantly spreading across the entire spear.
The spear hummed, as if a slumbering ancient beast had awakened, radiating a soul-shaking annihilation aura.
The next instant, Xu Jingming flicked his wrist.
The Black Gold Lei Yu Spear became a black lightning bolt tearing through space.
Reacting later but arriving first, it struck with pinpoint accuracy at the exact center of the mighty Golden Lion warhammer's head.
Hiss—
A faint sound, like a bubble bursting, echoed.
In Lei Ting's disbelief, his Golden Lion warhammer, condensed with all his strength.
Became as fragile as paper before that thread of black lightning, collapsing inward and vanishing at astonishing speed.
The Black Gold Lei Yu Spear surged forward unimpeded, annihilating the hammer.
Its tip continued its momentum, slamming straight into Lei Ting's chest.
Lei Ting felt an indescribable, terrifying force pierce through his body.
That force carried the ultimate will of destruction and annihilation.
His protective primordial energy and fitted battle armor.
Were as useless as air before this force, failing to resist even a thousandth of a second before being utterly pierced through!
Puch—!
The Black Gold Lei Yu Spear impaled Lei Ting clean through!
Hum—
A milky-white emergency shield activated automatically.
Instantly enveloping the severely wounded Lei Ting, isolating him from the outside.
"You're too weak."
Xu Jingming shook his head and swung the spear.
As if discarding a rag, he flung Lei Ting—impaled on the spear—onto the ground.
From Lei Ting's sudden attack to his elimination by Xu Jingming's spear, the entire process took less than a second.
Fast! Too fast!
So fast that the remaining two members of Chi Huang's team still had their angry expressions half-formed when they froze into shock and disbelief.
So fast that the billions watching the live stream in the virtual universe hadn't even opened their mouths to scream before the battle ended.
Xu Jingming slowly retracted the Black Gold Lei Yu Spear.
The spear tip angled toward the ground, fine strands of pitch-black electric serpents still slithered and danced along its shaft.
He lifted his head, his gaze sweeping over Chi Huang's ashen face and the two other team members frozen in stunned silence.
A reckless grin spread across his lips, more flamboyant and domineering than Chi Huang's usual sinister smirk.
"I said let you all come at once."
"Taking turns is too much trouble."
His voice was not loud, yet it echoed clearly through the deathly silent basin, carrying an unmatched air of dominance.
"Xu Jingming!!!"
Chi Huang finally exploded in rage.
He had assumed Xu Jingming had merely stumbled upon the Lightning Origin and was weak in strength.
But the reality of Lei Ao being instantly eliminated was like a loud slap, striking hard across his face.
What he could not tolerate even more was Xu Jingming's casual posture—as if he'd merely swatted away a fly!
This was not just a humiliation of power, but a trampling of Chi Huang's dignity, and of his entire team's honor!
"Do you truly believe that mastering a mere Lightning Origin grants you the right to act recklessly before me?!"
Chi Huang spoke word by word, his voice colder than ice frozen for ten thousand years.
The space around him began to warp and ripple, as an extreme heat of flame and an arcane spatial fluctuation rose simultaneously.
His crimson short hair stirred without wind, each strand standing on end like blazing flames.
In his crimson-gold alien pupils, fury nearly solidified into substance.
"Today, I'll show you what true top-tier prodigy power really is!"
Boom—!!!
Chi Huang's aura erupted without restraint!
The vast primordial energy of Star Peak surged like a volcanic eruption, churning the heavenly and earthly energies across dozens of kilometers.
Simultaneously, a crimson-gold flame ignited out of thin air.
It began as mere sparks, then instantly spread into an ocean of fire.
His figure seemed hidden within space, growing faint and illusory.
Flame Origin! Space Origin!
Both Origins manifested at once!
Chi Huang, one of the flagship prodigies of this year's Eternal Star Alliance Hunting Demon Tournament.
Finally revealed his true terrifying power!
"Jingming, I'll move aside."
Seeing Chi Huang was now serious, Yue Ying's gray eyes hardened.
She instinctively tried to step out of Xu Jingming's arms, so as not to hinder his battle.
Yet the moment she moved—
The arm around her waist tightened slightly, pinning her firmly in place.
Xu Jingming looked down at her, offering a smile brimming with unshakable confidence and boldness.
His voice cut clearly through the raging Doushen Shenlei surrounding them:
"It's fine, Ying'er. I'll fight with you."
Before the words had fully faded, Xu Jingming moved.
He still did not release his left arm wrapped around Yue Ying; he wielded the spear with one hand alone.
Carrying Yue Ying, he became a streak of black lightning, charging straight toward Chi Huang.
Meanwhile, in the virtual universe, the spectators who witnessed this scene were utterly dumbfounded.
Dude, seriously?
You're charging into battle with a gorgeous girl in your arms, using only one hand?
Isn't that just a little too arrogant?
