1054: Chapter 1053 The Ultimate Power Breaks All Laws

Laughter echoed under the chaotic sky, carrying undisguised sarcasm and high-and-mighty mockery.

"Arrogant!"

A powerhouse, his entire body enveloped in dark red energy flames and with Spiral Twin Horns growing from his forehead, shouted sternly, his sound waves turning into physical ripples that spread out, making the airship shields below hum and vibrate.

"A mere newcomer to Tier 5, who happened to trigger a few phenomena, dares to treat us as nothing? Today, I shall teach you the vastness of heaven and earth!"

"Correct," on the other side, an existence floating in the center of a Mechanical Ring, most of its body replaced by precision alloy with only half a human face retaining biological tissue, emitted a cold electronic synthesized voice.

"The rules of the Chaotic Star Domain cannot be provoked. Your dao marks... are very interesting, worth 'collecting' and studying."

More voices rang out, either cold snorts, sneers, or whispers filled with killing intent.

Over a dozen majestic pressures intertwined like a net, pressing down even more heavily on Wu Zhankong; the air became so viscous it nearly solidified, to the point where an ordinary Tier 4 Cultivator would likely struggle even to breathe.

However, at the core of the pressure, the cold and wild curve on Wu Zhankong's face remained unchanged.

He didn't even look at those shouting powerhouses, merely tilting his head slightly, his gaze sweeping over the battle blade at his side condensed from boiling blood Qi.

The blade was crimson with hideous textures, and the faint phantoms of countless tiny Vicious Beasts struggled and roared within it, echoing the massive torrent of beast shadows in the Void Realm behind him.

"Noisy."

Two words, calm to the point of indifference, yet more piercing than any roar, clearly reached the ears of every powerhouse.

Before the words had even faded, Wu Zhankong moved.

Without warning or charging up, it was as if a long-dormant Immemorial Vicious Beast had suddenly opened its crimson eyes, and the instinct to hunt instantly overwhelmed everything.

"Roar—!!!"

It was no longer a pressure-induced hallucination on the level of the Divine Soul, but a real, sky-shattering beast roar!

The countless beast shadows in the distorted Void Realm behind him seemed to be injected with Souls in an instant, all roaring toward the sky together!

Violent sound waves mixed with materialized Primeval Blood Qi exploded spherically in all directions!

Those bearing the brunt were the few Tier 5 Powerhouses closest to him.

Although they were prepared, with their Protective Spiritual Lights, Energy Barriers, and Mechanical Force Fields instantly pushed to the limit, they still shuddered in unison under the impact of this overbearing and unreasonable blood Qi sonic boom, their figures swaying and their offensives involuntarily stalling.

In that moment of hesitation, Wu Zhankong's figure disappeared.

No, not disappeared, but his speed was so fast that he left behind a slowly dissipating crimson afterimage.

His true body, like a blood-colored meteor, tore through the viscous air and intertwined pressure, crashing boldly into the seemingly unbreakable formation of those dozen or so powerhouses!

His target was directly the dark red flame-stream powerhouse with Spiral Twin Horns who had spoken first!

"Seeking death!"

The twin-horned powerhouse was both shocked and furious; he hadn't expected the opponent to actually dare to strike first, and with such a straightforward, life-risking fighting style aimed directly at the center.

In his shock and anger, his hands rapidly formed seals, and the dark red flames around him surged, transforming into nine hideous fire Dragons that bared their fangs and claws at the incoming blood-colored meteor.

Each fire Dragon contained high temperatures capable of melting gold and iron, along with vicious energy that could corrode bones and wither Souls; everywhere they passed, space was scorched into distorted ripples.

Facing the nine Dragons devouring his body, Wu Zhankong did not dodge, but changed his grip on the Blood-Colored Battle Blade from one hand to two, delivering an extremely simple upward diagonal slash!

"Buzz—!"

The blade vibrated, emitting an excited hum.

Where the blade passed, an extremely condensed, almost tangible blood-colored crescent shot out from the edge.

The crescent grew with the wind, instantly reaching a size of a hundred zhang; its edges were not smooth but covered in the phantoms of jagged Vicious Beast teeth, emitting a tooth-grinding screech as it cut through the air.

Nine Dragons roared; a blood moon hung in the sky.

There was no world-shaking explosion, only heart-palpitating sounds of annihilation and tearing.

The moment the nine dark red fire Dragons came into contact with the blood-colored crescent, they were like meeting their natural enemy, emitting silent wails as their massive flame bodies were sliced inch by inch, torn apart, and devoured by that peerlessly sharp Saber Qi carrying a sense of primeval devouring!

The blood-colored crescent's momentum was greatly reduced, but it still carried the dominance to destroy everything as it slashed fiercely toward the twin-horned powerhouse's body!

"What?!"

The twin-horned powerhouse's pupils shrank, somewhat in disbelief.

Although this move was only one of his Minor Divine Abilities, its power was not trivial, and ordinary peers of the same rank wouldn't dare to take it head-on; yet now, it was broken by a single strike from the opponent.

To think that Wu Zhankong had only just achieved a Breakthrough to Tier 5, yet possessed such combat power?

In haste, he roared, and the Spiral Twin Horns on his forehead suddenly lit up with piercing brilliance, as a highly condensed dark red beam, only as thick as an arm, shot out to strike the center of the blood-colored crescent.

Chila!

The beam collided with the crescent, erupting in the ear-piercing sound of energy annihilation.

Finally, the beam pierced through the crescent until both completely dissipated.

"You fellow!"

The twin-horned powerhouse's face looked grim; the first exchange had actually put him at a temporary disadvantage, causing him to lose a great deal of face!

However, he was also certain that Wu Zhankong's combat power was not like his Realm, and he must not be careless, or he might truly capsize in a small stream.

Meanwhile, Wu Zhankong slashed back the twin-horned powerhouse without pausing his movement; using the counter-force, he twisted his waist and spun in mid-air, the Blood-Colored Battle Blade drawing a perfect blood-colored arc as it swept toward the Cyborg Powerhouse floating in the Mechanical Ring to the side!

"An Inorganic Life Form, also worthy of being called a powerhouse?" Wu Zhankong's cold voice arrived along with the blade's edge.

The Cyborg Powerhouse's electronic eyes flashed rapidly, and a stream of data analysis refreshed like a waterfall.

"Power peak exceeds estimate by 127%, energy nature analysis... error, unable to fully resolve, contains high-dimensional life information residues... Suggestion: Evade frontal impact, activate High-Frequency Particle Cutting Network!"

The Mechanical Ring suddenly expanded, and countless hair-thin silver-white light lines shot out from it, weaving into a three-dimensional cutting net covering a radius of several hundred meters.

Every light line vibrated at an extremely high frequency, enough to easily slice through starship armor, additionally carrying energy interference and Divine Soul piercing properties.

The Blood-Colored Battle Blade slashed into the cutting network without any fancy tricks, as the ear-piercing sounds of metal friction and energy clashes exploded!

Blood-colored Saber Qi and silver-white light lines annihilated frantically, bursting into chaotic halos of energy.

That high-frequency particle net, capable of cutting through everything, was actually "ground" down in large sections by the Primeval Blood Qi and Vicious Beast will attached to the battle blade!

The muscles in Wu Zhankong's arm holding the blade bulged, veins roaming like dragons and snakes, and a faint purple-red luster appeared on the surface of his skin, as if it were not a body of flesh and blood, but divinely forged metal.

"The Extremity of Power, Breaking All Laws!"

He gave a low shout, the battle blade shuddered violently, and the remaining cutting network was completely shattered.

The blade's momentum remained undiminished as it slashed fiercely onto the rapidly contracting and blocking Mechanical Ring body!
