Chapter 602: Everyone's Strength
The Xuanming Guixu Art can devour all kinds of attacks, but cannot devour matter.
This was Zhang Yu's conclusion after recalling relevant information and combining his own observations and thoughts.
Under the impact of ten thousand flying swords, Zhang Yu believed that Kuang Tianqing absolutely could not use the Xuanming Guixu Art to resist the attack.
"Next is the Heavenly Demon Void Method."
"The body phasing of this Dao technique does not take effect 100% on the whole body; each phasing can only affect a part of the body. Even with the support of military-grade magical remains, it cannot exceed 90% of the body's tissues."
"So as long as the attack covers her entire body, it can cause damage and hurt her!"
The Sun Emperor God burst out with astonishing flames, continuously exploding outward in all directions, shooting streams of golden light as if to ignite the entire battlefield.
"Three days was ultimately too short, but with the help of the Tiangong Kaiwu, I managed to complete a small modification to the Sun Emperor God."
Zhang Yu thought: "Activate the unstable state of the Eternal Sun Star Core inside the puppet, causing the Eternal Sun Blazing Flame to explode, continuously emitting large-scale, omnidirectional flame shockwaves."
"Combined with the Taiyi Golden Liquid Pill to enhance the combustion performance of the flames, once it touches even a little, it acts like an incendiary agent, causing continuous burning and relentless high-temperature attacks..."
Flying swords! Flames! Continuously engulfed Kuang Tianqing.
But it wasn't enough!
In Zhang Yu's view, this was far from enough to defeat Kuang Tianqing.
So while doing all this, twelve Taihao Sacred Law flying swords were also hidden among the tens of thousands of flying swords.
"Kuang Tianqing, these twelve Taihao Sacred Law flying swords here connect with the twelve Taihao Sacred Law flying swords on the outer battlefield, forming the Sword Realm."
"Do you understand what this means?"
With a loud boom, a bolt of thunderfire suddenly erupted from the sword formation.
This was the power of the defense towers outside the prison being transmitted by Zhang Yu through the sword formation.
This was like opening a door, and then all kinds of thunderlight and sword qi followed.
Ye Xingli struck the Taihao Sacred Law flying sword in front of her with a move, thinking: "Try to survive, junior brother."
Wen Wuyia controlled his flying sword and slashed a sword qi at the Taihao Sacred Law flying sword: "Borrowing power? Then I'll give you some. Don't die at Kuang Tianqing's hands."
Bai Zhenzhen slashed out a scarlet sword qi, thinking: "Yu Zi... I believe in you. You can definitely do it."
Although the Taihao Sacred Law Sword Formation could transmit power within the formation, it required cooperation from both sides and could not be transmitted arbitrarily.
At this moment, through the connection of the inner and outer sword formations, Zhang Yu was not only using the terrain to attack Kuang Tianqing himself but also borrowing the power from Bai Zhenzhen, Wen Wuyia, and Ye Xingli, as if bringing the three of them together to encircle and kill Kuang Tianqing.
In just the second moment after the battle began, terrain, magical artifacts, techniques, teammates... Zhang Yu made the most of every advantage.
Kuang Tianqing suddenly retreated violently, her dodge space being continuously eroded, and in an instant she was cornered with no room to retreat.
The many soul cultivators assisting in the operation of the treasures were already so excited that their consciousness trembled at this sight.
Zhao Tianxing became excited: "We can do it! We can! Right now, we are stronger than her!"
Hu Yuntao grew more and more excited, feeling as if even his spiritual realm signal was becoming unstable: "There's a chance! She has no way out!"
Ying Xin's grandfather reminded him nervously: "Don't get distracted! Focus! The opportunity has come!"
They seemed to have already seen themselves defeating Kuang Tianqing, saw the moment of achieving unprecedented results in the Top Ten League, seizing the chance for soul cultivators to turn over and become human.
"So annoying."
Facing the attack that would engulf her in the next moment, Kuang Tianqing's face now only showed... disgust.
It seemed that Zhang Yu's thorough preparations, so many schemes, the support from various teammates... all only made her feel sick.
"Immortal scum."
At the moment before the attack arrived, lines of large characters projected above Kuang Tianqing's head.
"Do you think that having fought me once means you understand me?"
"Do you think you... have really fought me at full power?"
"Do you truly think you... know how strong I am?"
The next moment, the magical remains on Kuang Tianqing lit up section by section, and she chanted: "Plundering heaven's creation, the choice of the Transformation God, the immortal grade among magical remains."
Immediately afterward, a line of text lit up on her chest: Curse-Heaven Myriad Demon Throne.
Zhang Yu reacted instantly: "Duotian Zaohua is the Dharma Skeleton company over at Heavenly Demon University, right?"
He knew that Duotian Zaohua was a Dharma Skeleton company on the same level as Myriad Dao Artisan Sect, Vajra Mystic Forge, Tiangong, and others, except it had a strong Heavenly Demon style and was rarely seen around Myriad Dharma University.
"Is this a Dharma Skeleton advertisement?" Zhang Yu’s expression immediately turned serious, because a Dharma Skeleton capable of making Kuang Tianqing deliberately recite an ad line like that was bound to be an extremely powerful one.
And indeed, it was exactly so—if during their last battle, the Dharma Skeleton Kuang Tianqing had equipped specialized in tracking, assassination, and stealth, then today, the one she was wearing was born for combat.
The Dharma Skeleton named Curse-Heaven Myriad Demon Throne, fully called the Curse-Heaven Myriad Demon Throne Meridian System, connected every part of Kuang Tianqing’s body with artificial meridians.
As the Curse-Heaven Myriad Demon Throne activated, Kuang Tianqing’s entire meridian network was flooded with mana, and her body was wrapped in a layer of black.
With a thunderous boom, the torrent of attacks struck Kuang Tianqing’s body, but it was like waves crashing against a reef—utterly ineffective against her.
Letting tens of thousands of flying swords pierce and slash back and forth, Kuang Tianqing walked toward Zhang Yu while coldly saying, "All this messy preparation, as if you actually think you can beat me."
"Support from teammates, advance preparations, terrain, formations…"
"What difference does any of it make?"
"You’re too weak."
"And my personal strength far surpasses yours."
"With this gap in personal power, everything you do is just like a clown’s act, understand? Immortal trash."
Seeing that their carefully prepared attacks couldn’t harm her at all, the soul cultivators were all shocked.
Zhao Tianxing: "How is that possible?"
Hu Yuntao: "Not a scratch? What kind of Dharma Skeleton is this?"
Che Yufei, who had been silent for a long time, couldn’t help but say, "We can’t break through her defense at all… Zhang Yu, should we consider pulling back?"
Meanwhile, during the battle, Zhang Yu had been livestreaming the fight to the Four Schools group chat.
Seeing this, Ye Xingli’s heart sank: "After gathering so much power and all of Zhang Yu’s preparations, they still can’t match Kuang Tianqing at all."
Wen Wuxia sighed inwardly: "We all underestimated Kuang Tianqing. That guy… has uncountable resources piled on her to support her winning this championship. She’s not someone you can deal with by just casually gathering a few people’s strength."
Zhang Yu’s gaze was also extremely serious as he frantically observed Kuang Tianqing’s state through his Eye Skeleton, Sun Emperor Golden Radiance, and the Taihao Sacred Law Sword Formation.
At the same time, Tiangong Kaiwu had already started running again, searching for her weaknesses by modifying the Taihao Sacred Law Flying Sword design.
And his Dao Heart level instantly burned up to level 19 (23%); the next time he activated Tiangong Kaiwu, it might drop below level 19.
But the result was worth it.
"Fortunately, it seems my master and I can see through this thing…"
Watching the changes in the design diagram, a flash of insight struck Zhang Yu: "This Curse-Heaven Myriad Demon Throne is a meridian system that connects the whole body into one, so that an attack hitting one point is transmitted through the whole body to be resisted."
"And paired with the Heavenly Demon Void Method, it can transfer attacks into the void body, weakening them massively…"
"But this definitely isn’t unlimited."
"There must be a limit."
"Besides, in this state, all his meridians are occupied, so many military-grade spells and martial techniques should be unusable."
"There’s a chance!"
Zhang Yu shouted to the soul cultivators: "Don’t be afraid, we still have trump cards!"
From the pipes in the walls, bolts of lightning and thunder blasted out—these were the clump sword pellets Zhang Yu had manufactured while making the flying swords.
"Even though it’s just a simple version of the Primal Magnetic Channel I built for acceleration, having dragged it out and accelerated until now, I can finally unleash its full power."
In an instant, hundreds of sword pellets tore through the air like lightning bolts, accelerating through the Primal Magnetic Channel and smashing toward Kuang Tianqing.
Combined with the earlier ten-thousand-sword formation and the Sun Emperor Golden Radiance’s bombardment, this relentless onslaught finally left tiny, faint scratches on Kuang Tianqing’s body.
But those minuscule scratches didn’t make Kuang Tianqing nervous at all—she just curled her lip.
"I told you, my personal power is completely above yours."
"You’re not the only one who’s been preparing these past three days."
Then Kuang Tianqing pointed out with one finger; as his arm exploded with a loud blast, a mass of blood light abruptly blocked the attack.
Immediately after, the shattered arm writhed for a moment and rapidly regenerated.
