Chapter 595: Mysterious One Heavy Water!
"This, this is..."
When they looked at the figure approaching, the expressions of those on the city wall changed slightly. The appearance of this person meant that the people they had gone to intercept had been completely wiped out.
Dark clouds pressed down on the city, bringing with them an extremely oppressive feeling, as if they would be surrounded and destroyed by this gloomy cloud in the next moment.
If Shen Yu had not arrived earlier, this oppression alone would have been enough to make them fearful before the battle even began. This had nothing to do with whether they held a resolve to die; it was human instinct.
Yet even so, they remained uneasy. Although they had confidence in this Lord Shen beside them, and he had just finished off He Mujin, they had never truly fought before, so who knew who would win?
Looking again at the person slowly approaching the city wall from outside, their movements alone caused the heavens and earth to lose their color; such a phenomenon was surely not something human power could achieve.
Shen Yu, on the city wall, understood even better that the opponent was not just suppressing people with momentum, but was also cultivating that momentum.
Along the way, he had constantly adjusted his own aura to its best state, accumulating his energy. By the time he entered the city, his momentum would reach its peak.
And then, he would carry that magnificent, overwhelming momentum to crush everything blocking his path.
"Putting on an act in front of me? You really don't take me seriously at all!"
With a soft snort, an imperial seal appeared in Shen Yu's hand—a seal that looked plain and unremarkable, devoid of any special features, appearing almost like a mere stone—and he tossed it out lightly just like that.
In the distance, Lu Huatang, who was slowly walking toward this side, suddenly felt something approaching him. He squinted his eyes and saw what looked like a stone in the shape of a seal.
This stone came extremely fast, so fast that he could not even dodge it, and it suddenly appeared above his head.
"What is this?" Originally, he had paid no attention to such an object that looked like it had no power, but he found that this seal instantly grew larger after getting close to him.
Before he could even fully react, the seal had already transformed into a giant mountain whose peak could not be seen at a glance.
This giant mountain directly crushed the momentum he had cultivated for so long; the dark clouds in the sky shattered beneath the high mountain, and sunlight spilled onto the ground.
At the same time, that high mountain, so huge that one could not look up to its top, fell fiercely from the sky, smashing Lu Huatang down to the ground.
The weight of this high mountain was unbearable, as if all the mountains and earth veins of the world had condensed into one, pressing down raw upon his shoulders.
He wanted to struggle, wanted to break free, but he could not resist this terrifying power at all.
If it were a smaller mountain or a single plot of land, it might have been possible, but the Hanshan Seal, formed by the condensation of countless mountains and earth veins, could never be shaken by human power alone.
Just as Lu Huatang was nearing despair, he felt the high mountain on his body seem to move away, but before he could begin to rejoice, the high mountain that had just floated into mid-air smashed down fiercely once more.
"Pfft!" Finally, Lu Huatang could no longer endure it. At this moment, he felt as if his internal organs and every bone in his body had been shattered, and the intense feeling of pain assaulted his entire body over and over again.
His mouth vomited violently, spitting out large mouthfuls of fresh blood mixed with fragments of his internal organs. In just one or two strikes, he was already completely severely wounded.
The opponent suppressed him with power; he could not dodge, could not avoid, and could not block it.
How many years—how many years had it been since he suffered such a severe injury? This battle was fought with such frustration; he didn't even know who the person attacking him was.
Before he could struggle out of the intense pain again, the high mountain floated up once more and fell heavily. Just like that, strike after strike, it smashed him until he saw stars, and even more, it made him doubt his life.
The vitality of his body was almost completely destroyed in these strikes, and even his spirit seemed on the verge of collapse.
Let alone now, even at his peak, he might not have been able to withstand such immense power.
However, he was unwilling; he hadn't even seen his opponent yet. His strongest means hadn't been used, and his trump card hadn't been revealed before he was interrupted by someone—frustrating, how frustrating!
But it seemed the opponent would not give him the chance!
The earth was shaking violently, vibrating strike after strike as the high mountain rose and fell, a sight that made the faces of those on the distant city wall twitch.
They had thought of countless ways Shen Yu might respond, and had even fantasized that Shen Yu might be able to settle it alone with a single sword, just like Cold Spear Bai Yi before.
But they never expected that this Lord Shen before them would use such a method—an unimaginably terrifying method—to directly crush them with overwhelming momentum.
The opponent pressed toward the city wall with great momentum, and I can strike back with great momentum; impressive!
Being smashed back and forth by such a high mountain, even an iron man would probably have been smashed into a meat patty by now.
After a long while, Shen Yu on the city wall withdrew the seal and lightly struck a sword toward the distant Lu Huatang, whose life or death was unknown.
This sword carried the most brilliant and dazzling light, as if it could capture one's soul, causing all things in the world to lose their color.
This sword seemed to traverse time and space, severing the stars. From such a distance, the massive chasm formed by the sword extended directly from this side of the city wall to where Lu Huatang was.
Wherever the sword light reached, it seemed to form a void; anything in front of the sword light was completely turned into dust.
This chasm formed by Sword Qi passed through the moat, and the river water poured backward, directly forming a wide river.
A river formed by a single sword; the name of Lord Shen is truly well-deserved.
"Good sword!" When the high mountain on his back was moved away, Lu Huatang was already on his last breath. His physical body had perished, leaving only a remnant of his spirit, but an extremely dangerous feeling suddenly struck in the next moment.
He saw this sword, brilliant as the stars; he did not lose unjustly. Even without this high mountain on his back, he likely could not have blocked it.
How many geniuses are there in this generation? First a Bai Yi, and now another master of the sword.
The limits of heaven and earth suppressed their power, preventing them from exerting their strength at their peak; facing the geniuses of an era, they lost in the end.
He was unwilling. Originally, they could have lived, but that damned bitch actually made them awaken early, leading to the current danger to their lives.
If it were possible, he would definitely tear that bastard into pieces.
In his final unwillingness, Lu Huatang took one last look at that brilliant sword light, and in the final radiance, he vanished from the world. Nothing was left behind, as if he had never appeared.
"Dead!" Looking into the distance, under his final sword, the opponent had completely turned into a void; it was impossible for them to still be alive.
"Dead? So that means we won?" Hearing Shen Yu's words, the remaining people looked into the distance with some uncertainty and couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva.
This battle was simply like cutting through dry weeds and smashing rotten wood, making people feel as if they were in a dream.
Looking at that person in the distance, they didn't know why, but they even felt an inexplicable sense of sympathy. They came arrogantly, but died in such a frustrating way.
Thinking about it, this person didn't have it easy either. Without even a formal exchange, they were finished off by someone; it was a waste of such arrogant momentum.
"System, sign in!"
"Sign-in successful, obtained Mysterious One Heavy Water. One gives birth to two, two gives birth to three, mysterious and more mysterious, infinite and endless!"
Following the shimmering light of the system, a drop of water floated quietly in Shen Yu's hand.
Although this drop of water was only a single drop, it could instantly gather into a river, and in an instant, condense into a vast sea, surging endlessly, without end.
