Chapter 101: The Strike
Within that terrifying slashing wave, Zhou Heng felt intense malice and a threat to his life.
These slashes were all powers generated by the combination of soul power, spiritual power, and even life force; although they were not yet Divine Power, their destructive force far exceeded the limits of soul power.
The power of these slashes, even for Zhou Heng who had activated his Indestructible Golden Body and Immovable King Seal, remained a lethal threat.
Facing the incoming slashes, Zhou Heng hurriedly dodged, while at the same time, thick stone walls rose from the ground before him to block the strike; however, seeing this, Qian Hanmei unleashed several more slashes in succession.
Although their power varied, each one possessed enough force to shatter the stone walls in front of Zhou Heng.
Zhou Heng was busy dodging, pushing his Extreme Ice to the limit as layers of dense ice mist gathered around him, obscuring his figure and blocking Qian Hanmei's attacks.
However, this still could not block the enemy's lock-on.
Wrapped in armor, Qian Hanmei charged forward, skillfully and lethally wielding the illusory scythe in her hand, easily cutting through Zhou Heng's soul skills.
Whether it was the intangible ice mist or the stone wall defenses, all were severed by the sword qi slashes composed of powerful sword intent and killing intent.
Yes, it was sword intent.
Although Qian Hanmei was wielding an illusory scythe, Zhou Heng could see the techniques within it extremely clearly; it was unmistakably an extremely profound and murderous sword technique.
Although Zhou Heng had never witnessed Sword Douluo Chen Xin fully unleash the Seven Kill Sword Technique, Zhou Heng was quite certain that even if Chen Xin were here, he would absolutely be unable to contend with this Qian Hanmei wielding a scythe in terms of swordsmanship.
Although not a single word was spoken and not a shred of the Asura God's Divine Power was revealed, Zhou Heng dared to swear on his own life that the one controlling Qian Hanmei from behind was absolutely that bastard, the Asura God.
Although she was using the Rakshasa God's Divine Power and had condensed a scythe as a weapon, what Rakshasa God possessed such sword intent?
Zhou Heng would not have doubted it if someone said the Angel God had this level of swordsmanship, but the Rakshasa God clearly played with a scythe!
Although Zhou Heng tried hard to block the enemy, Qian Hanmei was still rapidly closing in on him; despite Zhou Heng resisting with maximum output, it was still difficult to have any effect under that God King-level swordsmanship and sword intent.
Under this pressure, the soul power within Zhou Heng erupted with full force; in this state, Zhou Heng could manage, within two hours, to not lose to a Title Douluo in terms of the quantity of soul power output.
The extreme Five Elements power within his body was stirred by Zhou Heng, and under his control, it gathered in his left hand.
"Five Elements Rotation!"
One could see five-colored brilliance blooming around Zhou Heng, transforming into a multicolored orb that was constantly evolving; the surrounding Five Elements elements were all attracted by the multicolored orb and gathered into it.
All the slashes Qian Hanmei unleashed were attracted by this multicolored orb; after being sucked into it, these slashes would be assimilated, crushed, and absorbed by the Five Elements power.
They were turned into his own power, followed by the continuous series of operations of absorbing and assimilating slashes.
Seeing that her attacks were completely ineffective, a flash of blood-red light flickered in Qian Hanmei's eyes.
The next moment, the purple flames on the scythe in Qian Hanmei's hand suddenly burned violently, turning into a purple fireball; Qian Hanmei swung it with force, and immediately, this purple fireball turned into a meteor and flew toward Zhou Heng.
In the area where the purple fireball flew, the air distorted continuously, and cracks appeared in the sky.
Zhou Heng looked at the purple fireball flying toward him with a grave expression; this was not the power of the fire element, but the Rakshasa God's Divine Power condensed into the form of a fireball.
The distorted air was crushed by the Divine Power, and those cracks appeared because the space of the Douluo World was not stable enough; thus, when facing this mass of compressed Divine Power, the space was directly pressed into spatial rifts by this Divine Power.
"Five Elements Transformation!"
Following Zhou Heng's control, the multicolored orb in front of him changed again, transforming into the White Tiger, Azure Dragon, Vermilion Bird, Black Tortoise, and Qilin—these five lifelike and awe-inspiring sacred beasts.
With the appearance of the five sacred beasts, an inexplicable power descended from thin air; the Five Elements power resonated with the five sacred beasts, stirring the Five Elements Laws.
Zhou Heng then pushed these five sacred beasts out.
The next moment, the purple fireball collided with the five sacred beasts; the purple fireball immediately burst open, turning into a sea of purple fire, intending to drown the five sacred beasts in this sea of fire and reduce them completely to ashes.
However, the five sacred beasts exerted their power within the sea of fire; with the earth attribute as the foundation and the Five Elements generating each other, the surrounding Heaven and Earth Origin Qi was absorbed by the five sacred beasts, making their power increasingly formidable. No matter how the sea of fire attacked, it could not completely shatter the five sacred beasts.
Instead, the power of the sea of fire was drawn in by the five sacred beasts, then ground to pieces, turned into Heaven and Earth Origin Qi, and completely absorbed.
Even if the purple sea of fire ignited on the bodies of the five sacred beasts, it could not burn them completely.
In the end, the purple sea of fire and the five sacred beasts wore each other down and vanished into thin air.
Zhou Heng immediately took the initiative to attack, his right hand forming a palm-blade gesture; the Indestructible Golden Nature within his body was mobilized by Zhou Huan, and then a streak of golden blade light lit up from his hand.
The next moment, Zhou Heng had already swung down with force; the blade light sliced through the air and arrived in front of Qian Hanmei.
Qian Hanmei could not react in time and was knocked flying by the blade light, landing in the distance; not only was the armor on her body cut open, but even Qian Hanmei's body was severed by the blade light, split into two halves, and fell to the ground, her aura extremely weak.
Feeling Qian Hanmei's weak aura, Zhou Heng gathered his power again, preparing to strike while the enemy was down.
The Rakshasa God's power had been consumed significantly by this strike from Zhou Heng.
However, another inexplicable power gathered within the heavens and earth.
Qian Hanmei's body, severed into two pieces, was forcibly pulled together by an invisible force; a blood-colored domain unfolded on her body and then instantly evolved.
The purple scythe underwent a change, then was invaded by the blood color, transforming into a purple-red longsword.
Qian Hanmei rushed toward Zhou Heng at a speed several times faster than before and finally uttered her first sound.
"Asura Assault."
The massive blade edge broke through the Indestructible Golden Body on Zhou Heng's body.
It plunged heavily into Zhou Heng's body, and terrifying power rampaged within him; pure killing intent impacted Zhou Heng's spiritual Sea of Consciousness.
Just as the Asura God's Divine Sense hidden within Qian Hanmei's body thought that this person who had disturbed his plan would die under this move of his.
He suddenly saw Zhou Heng, whose body had been pierced through, reveal a strange smile.
