Chapter 475: Heart Sword

It was just that the Thunder ability, due to Wuzang's Gale defense, could not cause substantial results; his Gale ability was different from everyone else's, steady and solid, not giving a single opportunity.

Li Xiangshan also knew that if they kept fighting like this, he would become Wuzang's experience baby; this kid was growing at high speed, constantly adapting to his defensive rhythm and technical details—an enlightened Ancient Martial Arts Warrior was truly terrifying.

But Moon People also had their own path; the Moon's schools of thought did not replicate the form of Ancient Martial Arts from the beginning; they had their own system and were leading the current trend.

The Golden Zone was the domain of the Moon People.

······

The Hook Sickle Battle Axe caught an interval in the Black Night Saber's attack and suddenly jammed the Blood Moon; the massive Death Penalty Mecha suddenly dropped its shoulder and dived, while the Black Night Mecha did not entangle at all, the Blood Moon nimbly pulled away, a Gale ability blast, and with a fluid sliding step, it opened up distance from the Death Penalty Mecha.

"The old Wuzang only knew how to fight head-on; now he's so slippery." Luo Bi watched, dumbfounded. Is this still that little steel cannon who used to hack through the whole street? He used to always think about suppressing his opponent with moves, but now his flexibility and variability were as if he had changed into a different person.

"Once meeting the wind and clouds, a dragon is transformed; this kid's luck is truly good." Yan Peng and the others couldn't help but feel a bit emotional; perhaps Wuzang had enough talent, but without such an opportunity, how could he have grown to this point?

Long Danni was also watching with surging emotions. Not to mention winning or losing, when she first came to Tianjing Martial Arts, the first person she evaluated was Wuzang; he was the core of the future team building for Tianjing Martial Arts. She knew Wuzang would definitely grow, but it was hard to say to what extent. With Long Danni's life experience, she had seen too many talented people—some made it, some were buried; there were too many things that were a matter of timing and fate.

Li Xiangshan knew the rhythm could not continue to be led by Wuzang like this; after all, he was piloting a Heavy Armor. The light and flame of the entire Death Penalty Mecha suddenly bloomed, the Golden Zone climbed continuously, and Li Xiangshan also let out a low roar; he wanted to secure a victory for his World Championship final.

The huge Shanhuhu Hunben opened a third brilliant eye on its forehead, as if discerning everything and annihilating everything; a terrifying pressure enveloped the entire battlefield. Wuzang, who had been maintaining the confrontation, finally fell into a disadvantage. Once a Zone gap was created, the stronger side began to constantly erode and crush; this was also Li Xiangshan's trump card. Originally, facing Wuzang, he, with his rich experience, had thought he could save some strength to take this match, but it seemed he had still underestimated Wuzang's determination.

Wuzang resisted desperately; he once again endured the gap in power levels. The huge shadow behind him wanted to resist, but it was still a blank screen of light and could not condense. For every gain, there is a loss; under the strength of Ancient Martial Arts, his breakthrough in the Golden Zone had always been stuck, and in this critical match, it was seized by Li Xiangshan.

····. ·

Accompanied by a heaven-shaking thunderous roar, the Death Penalty Mecha arrived in front of the Black Night Saber in an instant, its speed unbelievable. The Black Night Mecha reacted subconsciously, and the terrifying power came over in an overwhelming manner.

······

The Black Night Mecha did not defend in time and was directly blasted away. The next moment, the Death Penalty Mecha seemed to have received the blessing of thunder; countless thunders shuttled through the light and flame of the entire mecha, moving in an instant. The moment it stepped out with a sliding step, it was like a Thunder Swift Walk. The Death Penalty Mecha took advantage of the situation to strike upward from below. At the critical moment of life and death, the Black Night Mecha's scabbard and the Blood Moon pressed down in a reverse cross.

Bang~~~

With a loud explosion, the light and flame burst, and the Black Night Mecha was directly blasted into the air. Hum......

The Death Penalty Mecha, like a Thunder God descending, went up like a cannonball, the Hook Sickle Battle Axe carrying the power of thunder, hacking heavily toward the Black Night Mecha that was close at hand.

Heavenly Heart Style—Thunder Silence!

Wuzang's Gale ability was pulled to the limit, Wind Counter-Rotation pulled to the max! Boom......

The Black Night Mecha fell into the ground like a falling meteor. Li Xiangshan, in mid-air, did not let go of this opportunity; the entire Death Penalty Mecha also rushed down at the same time, the death-defying battle axe hacking down once again. The best way to respect an opponent is to defeat them with all your might!

Hum~~

The deafening ultrasonic wave exploded instantly, and the violent thunder power was like the end

of the world descending, exploding. The entire sky fell into a dimness, the sound and light and flame seemed to stagnate for an instant, and the next moment time recovered, exploding completely.

Just when everyone thought it was over, the Black Night Mecha, which had just endured such a heavy blow, actually flew out from the explosion. It was the Wind Counter-Rotation that saved Wuzang; his body had not completely lost control. Through countless days and nights of training, the foundation of Ancient Martial Arts was to maintain calmness and mobility in the limit. The Wushi Thunder Move Breathing Method was activated instantly, dodging this fatal slash at the moment of life and death, but the Golden Zone that Li Xiangshan completely suppressed still caused Wuzang to suffer heavy damage.

Before Wuzang had any chance to catch his breath, the Death Penalty Mecha had already flown over, grabbing the Black Night Mecha in mid-air, and the Hook Sickle Battle Axe hooked over at the same time.

Wuzang gritted his teeth, his muscles twisted, and the Black Night Mecha twisted continuously in its mouth, dodging the fatal hook of the battle axe, followed by his right leg exerting force suddenly, step, step, step, step, step, step......

Wu Family—Ascending Sky Kick.

Both sides exchanged moves continuously in a small range in the air, and the Black Night Mecha finally broke free from the Death Penalty Mecha's grapple and opened up the distance.

Li Xiangshan, who landed, also calmed his breathing, his eyes full of emotion. Once upon a time, Wuzang couldn't even last three minutes in his hands, but now this kid had actually blocked his Thunder Matrix. Likewise, he himself had also made rapid progress in the year since Xilian arrived; otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to keep up with the current intensity.

Li Hao and Xilian, these two monsters, were doing terrifying things, and only those around them could feel it. As a pilot, as a warrior, happening to be here, it was truly a joy!

The Black Night Mecha landed staggeringly. The camera gave a shot to Wuzang and Li Xiangshan. Li Xiangshan's situation looked quite good, while Wuzang's situation was already very poor. After all, it was his first year participating in the S Tournament, and facing a master like Li Xiangshan, in the constant consumption and pulling, Wuzang was clearly unable to keep up. And in the previous confrontation, the scabbard had already been slashed away, leaving only one Blood Moon.

Li Xiangshan took a deep breath; the more it was like this, the less he could underestimate the enemy. The Death Penalty Mecha held the Hook Sickle Battle Axe with both hands. The reason he chose the Death Penalty Mecha was to use the strongest attack to destroy Wuzang's resilience and technique.

This move left no room for anything!

A Thunder Storm was forming, and a world-destroying blow was condensing in the hands of the Death Penalty Mecha. Although Li Xiangshan had not reached the level of Maxis Basta and others who could directly smelt K23 Element, he had already been stimulated to the edge.

"The techniques of Ancient Martial Arts are limited after all, limited to the power of the flesh, while the Golden Zone possesses infinite possibilities. This is the gap, so Ancient Martial Arts is destined to decline!" In the live broadcast room, Huonan shouted emotionally, "Li Xiangshan, swing your axe of Glory and draw a perfect period for your 4th S Tournament!"

Huo Laoshi used both sentiment and rhetoric to incite Li Xiangshan's supporters. He had already seen Wuzang's weakness: Borrowing Force to Strike, sending Mu Jiang's teammate on his way.

Wuzang took a deep breath. Walking all the way here, countless images flashed in his mind: the quiet Zhou Naiyi would go berserk, the weak Zuo Xiaotang became brave, Ma Long also shouldered heavy responsibilities, and Li Hao and Cheng Konghai were dragging them forward, walking to a height they never even dared to imagine.

Possessing such comrades, because of such comrades, he had never longed for victory as he did now.

Holding the Blood Moon with both hands, Wuzang instantly entered the Heart Flow state. On such a stage, with such an opponent, casting aside the distracting thoughts of victory or defeat, he wanted to swing a sword that surpassed himself.

After so many years, what was his obsession, what did he possess, and what was his spirit truly longing for?

That's right, he couldn't make fantasies and longings like others, because from the moment he was born, he had been accepting the philosophy of Ancient Martial Arts, so he didn't know what the essence of his spirit was.

He didn't care; he only knew that to win this victory, he needed an extraordinary sword! Finally, the blurry shadow began to condense, and a blood-red long sword floated in the air.

Heart Sword as One!

Flowing Heart Martial Arts—Heart Sword Soul Essence!

Boom...... The Black Night Mecha flashed and charged, the entire Black Night Mecha like a sword drawn from its sheath. A sword's cold light across nineteen provinces, sword energy spanning thirty thousand miles!

At the same time, the Death Penalty Mecha also

flashed and charged toward the opponent. The Shanhuhu Hunben of the Heavenly Eye roared out, no longer having any hesitation. The path of the Gale and the path of the Thunder met at midfield, and both sides, following their own power matrices, poured out all their power in an instant.

Wu Family—Wild Wind Unity Slash!

Heavenly Heart Style—Guillotine!

The two forces collided head-on without any room for maneuver. Boom......

The Death Penalty Battle Axe cut directly into the Black Night Mecha, and the Blood Moon also pierced into the cockpit of the Death Penalty Mecha with one sword. At the last moment, Wuzang chose a limit one-for-one; this was his only chance.

The entire scene held its breath. The next second, the Black Night Mecha exploded. In the flames, the Death Penalty Mecha walked out, still carrying that Blood Moon on its body.

The instant replay of the kill was given immediately. In terms of the impact power of the two Mobile Suits, the Death Penalty Mecha clearly occupied the upper hand; after all, Li Xiangshan led by quite a bit in the Zone, but at this time, Wuzang used his Ancient Martial Arts comprehension to fight out the possibility of a limit one-for-one, and in fact, that was exactly what Wuzang did. Facing the Thunder Slash of the Death Penalty Mecha, Wuzang chose the simple and unadorned Zero-Style Center Thrust. In the intersection of a fraction of a second, Wuzang was confident that even if he were hit first, he could complete the attack, and in the same fastest second, he even had the possibility of winning.

However, all of this was also within Li Xiangshan's grasp. What he performed was the Death Penalty Mecha's most signature Guillotine. And at the critical moment for both sides, Li Xiangshan's Hook Sickle Battle Axe flew out, carrying the power of thunder to slash toward the Black Night Saber. At this distance and with this power, there was no way to dodge, so in an instant, the flying axe hit the Black Night Mecha first. The time difference of this blow was too short and was not enough to make Wuzang's attack power decay significantly. He knew how firm his opponent's determination was, but it gave the Death Penalty Mecha a chance to raise its hand and lift the shield. The terrifying Wild Wind Unity Slash pierced through the K23 Titanium Shield, pierced through the left arm of the mecha, and then stabbed into the cockpit.

In the close-up shot, the cockpit of the Death Penalty Mecha had already cracked, and the huge Blood Moon Long Blade was already pressed in front of Li Xiangshan, just missing by that little bit......

Li Xiangshan's pupils contracted violently, and the corners of his mouth were a bit bitter. He hadn't underestimated his opponent, but deep down he was still very confident. There was still a big distance between Wuzang and him, but he hadn't expected that a newly comprehended Soul Essence would almost finish him off. Fortunately, it was a mecha battle; the profound meaning of Ancient Martial Arts was always separated by a layer, otherwise he would have been gone. If they were given a little more time, there would really be nothing that could stop them.

(Partners, there are three updates at dawn... The final stage of the final is left for Old Li, so I won't force the promotion of Brother Wu's realm.)
