557: How could I lose?
On the battlefield.
Ying Zheng stared intently at the person before him.
Grayish-white long hair fluttered over his majestic body, white qu jiao snaked behind his head, and his eyes, as black as ink, were like abysses, making people dare not meet his gaze.
With a light refer to from Zeus, "Helden" condensed collapse particles under his feet, forming thrusters, and transformed into a gray streak of light, charging towards Ying Zheng!
Ying Zheng took a deep breath, tightened his grip on the sword hilt, and instead of retreating, advanced, delivering a horizontal slash across his front.
But the moment he touched Helden, the collapse thrusters under his feet suddenly changed direction, causing Helden to spiral up into the air, evading the sword, and then following through with a spinning side-kick!
"Boom!"
Ying Zheng's cheek took the full force of the kick, and he was instantly sent flying a thousand meters, only barely stopping his momentum by stabbing his sword into the ground!
But when he looked up, there was no one in front of him, and behind him, a terrifying black-purple Qi wave surged.
Too fast!
Ying Zheng's pupils suddenly constricted, wanting to block, but it was too late. He could only hastily condense Sword Intent to protect his body!
But he was still sent flying high into the sky by Helden's terrifying knee strike, followed by an infinite aerial combo!
All of Ying Zheng's movements were completely seen through by Helden. In just one exchange, three moves, both the man and his sword were sent flying!
This battle scene made all the spectators' hair stand on end.
Although there wasn't the world-destroying destructive power of Zeus before, every punch and kick from Helden made people feel like their bones could be shattered!
Most importantly, the fluidity and precision of his movements were terrifying.
There were no wasted movements!
The force of each strike was perfectly controlled at 70%. If Ying Zheng even thought of counterattacking, Helden could use the remaining 30% of his strength to resist, and then... it was another round of beating!
This extremely minimalist and brutal fighting style was terrifying!
But fortunately, the only hope was that it wasn't the real Helden, but a... Clone?
People suddenly remembered Zeus's move of replicating Ying Zheng earlier!
No way?
He copied a Helden!?
At this moment, the exhausted Zeus slowly stood up, let out a long sigh of turbid Qi, and then said with a sigh: "In the past two years, I have been learning by King Her's side, observing his every move, analyzing everything about him with Origin power, and imitating everything about him."
"I learned how to use the collapse Law."
"I also learned how to use elemental nullification."
"Actually, if given enough time, there's nothing in this world I can't learn, but... no matter how much I learn, it all comes from others, not from myself."
Zeus watched the exciting duel before him, as if nothing was wrong, and said with a faint smile: "King Her told me that I would find my own power, there's no need to rush, it just takes time."
"But before that, I need to have sufficient combat power."
"He told me to just copy him directly."
Speaking of this, Zeus raised his palm, and a blue orb of light appeared on it, emitting a soft glow, and within the orb were various colors of power.
This was something produced by his deep development of his talent, named Origin Spirit Pearl. It could store various Law powers, and it was the reason he could use the collapse Law.
Now, the light of this Origin Spirit Pearl was somewhat dim, because 95% of the power within it had been mobilized by Zeus in that extremely short time, transforming into the current Helden.
At this point, Zeus continued: "But that alone is not enough."
"Besides Law, a Physical Body is also needed."
"So, I also analyzed my own Physical Body power."
"In these two years, I haven't abandoned my Physical Body; on the contrary, I've trained it quite well, it just isn't within my body."
Speaking of this, Zeus looked at the battlefield. That Helden, who was close to a Great Accomplishment Holy Body, shattered a corner of the battlefield with a mighty punch, and the spatial barrier at the edge trembled twice.
Ying Zheng no longer had his initial composure. His black hair was already stained with crimson blood, but it only made countless fangirls feel more heartache, as if his battle-damaged appearance was even more handsome.
Zeus, meanwhile, remained standing in place, resting, his face full of composure.
"Finally, King Her also needs to have his own thinking ability. Even if I don't use my mind to control him, he must be able to fight on his own."
"This is my Intent."
"I call it the Intent of Civilization."
"Because this Intent is more like another intelligent individual, just without life characteristics."
"So..."
"Ying Zheng, you are truly excellent, but give up."
"Because the King Her standing before you at this moment, although his Realm is only Late Stage Martial Venerable."
"Compared to the King Her of yesteryear, he only lacks his unique Intent."
"Other than that, he also possesses a Physical Body that has already achieved Major Achievement, collapse power structured into Law, and all the combat experience I've had fighting against you all, and even other elemental Law powers, etc... Whatever I want to bestow upon him, he can possess!"
"This means... the King Her before you now, although a copy, is even stronger than the King Her of yesteryear!"
As his voice fell, Zeus slowly sat down, beginning to calm his mind and recover his state.
He wasn't worried at all that Ying Zheng could bypass King Her to capture the king first.
Because that was King Her!
At this moment.
The Human Race battleship was in dead silence, and everyone's faces were filled with gloom.
Zeus was absolutely right.
One thing that greatly boosted Human Race morale back then was Xiao Fan defeating Helden of the same Realm in the Martial Arts Pinnacle Tower.
But now, the Helden standing before Ying Zheng was an enhanced version!
And the enhancement was very significant!
Stronger Physical Body!
Stronger collapse!
More combat experience!
This was simply unwinnable!
After only ten minutes, Ying Zheng was already covered in blood, his face distorted with ferocity.
Helden was completely a fighting machine!
Without any emotions, every action from beginning to end was solely for one purpose: to kill Ying Zheng!
Almost everyone believed that Ying Zheng basically couldn't win!
But some top powerhouses, including Xiao Fan, didn't think so.
Because they knew very well that King Her's most terrifying aspect was his wisdom.
What always kept King Her undefeated was not just his Heaven-Defying Bloodline.
That was merely superficial.
Anyone who had truly fought King Her knew.
His wisdom was his most terrifying weapon.
And this copy before them did not possess that!
People also didn't believe that Zeus's "Intent of Civilization" could possess wisdom comparable to King Her's!
Furthermore, Ying Zheng himself was aware of this.
At this moment, he once again climbed out of the ruins, a hint of disdain appearing on his face!
This made everyone somewhat surprised and doubtful.
Ying Zheng wasn't despairing!?
That was an enhanced Helden; how could he still smile?
Suddenly!
Ying Zheng abruptly raised his hand and pressed down on the white cloth covering his eyes, sneering: "Back then, Xiao Fan could defeat a Helden with a brain."
"Now, against a mere brainless thing, how could I possibly lose!?"
As his voice fell.
He abruptly tore off the white cloth, and a pair of eyes emitting a pure white luminescence were revealed to the world!
These eyes made people somewhat tremble, because there were no pupils within them!
Completely pure white!
Someone immediately raised an eyebrow, thinking that this was precisely the opposite of Helden's pitch-black eyes?
But what was the use of these pure white eyes?
