474: Zhang Zhongqing's Crazy Fight

Within the Holy War, as the killing continued, more and more people died.

Now, less than one-tenth of the original participants remained on the field, and even Fang Yuan's team was affected by the intensifying battlefield.

Now, only Yan Kuan, Xiao Yang, and a few others were left by his side, protecting him.

"Someone else is going to die!"

Fang Yuan looked into the distance, where there was a forest. At this moment, sounds of breaking and roaring continuously came from within.

Zhong Qing was seen wielding his warhammer like a weapon of war, leading his group forward.

The surrounding forest seemed to be an extension of Lin Xiumu's will. Trees grew rapidly, and countless branches and vines continuously shot out, attempting to resist and kill everyone.

But whether it was Zhong Qing or the others, those who had survived were all strong individuals, and they were naturally not afraid of these.

Every collision made the air tremble and dust fly.

Soon, the group advanced unimpeded into the center of the forest, where Lin Xiumu and his team quietly watched them from a distance.

"One move to finish you all."

"War Stomp!"

Zhong Qing let out a low roar, and the gravity around his body suddenly intensified. Even the air became heavy, as if even light was being pulled and slowly bent.

He swung his warhammer. This time, the hammer's shadow transformed into an invisible mountain, carrying an overwhelming Aura that pressed directly towards Lin Xiumu and the others.

"Scatter quickly!"

Lin Xiumu's figure suddenly leaped, lightly landing on the top of a towering tree.

Just as he was about to use the tree's elasticity to retreat, an invisible force grabbed his ankle.

"What!"

Lin Xiumu looked down and saw two ribbon-like objects appear around his ankles, pulling him back.

He immediately shattered them, but by then it was too late to escape. Zhong Qing's hundredfold gravity drastically reduced his speed.

Since retreat was hopeless, he could only endure this blow!

Lin Xiumu's eyes narrowed. Spiritual energy surged within him. He knew this blow was no small matter and he couldn't be careless in the slightest.

He quickly formed hand seals, and his body shone brightly. Numerous illusory giant trees appeared out of thin air, surrounding him and forming an unbreakable forest shield.

"Wood Spirit Guard!"

Lin Xiumu roared. The giant trees condensed from vital energy instantly materialized. Their trunks were thick, and their branches and leaves were lush, as if they could withstand any attack in the world.

At the same time, Zhong Qing's warhammer arrived. The invisible mountain crashed down, colliding with Lin Xiumu's forest shield.

A deafening roar erupted instantly. The entire forest seemed to tremble at this moment, countless trees crashed down, and dust and debris obscured the sky.

Fang Yuan, Yan Kuan, Xiao Yang, and the others watched this scene from afar, their hearts stirred significantly.

"Xiao Yang!"

Fang Yuan called out, and Xiao Yang nodded slightly, instantly disappearing from his spot.

This was no longer just a contest of strength, but a Peak showdown of both sides' will and abilities.

"I wonder who will win..."

Yan Kuan muttered to himself, his tone filled with both anticipation and fighting spirit.

In the fierce confrontation between Lin Xiumu and Zhong Qing, although Lin Xiumu's Wood Spirit Guard withstood the first wave of impact, its light was slightly dimmed, clearly unable to withstand such a powerful attack for long.

And Zhong Qing's attack did not stop there. He gathered power again, preparing to unleash an even more violent blow.

Just at this critical moment, Lin Xiumu's figure suddenly flickered, and he disappeared before everyone's eyes, leaving behind only the gradually dissipating forest shield.

"So fast?!" Zhong Qing's expression changed slightly. He hadn't expected Lin Xiumu's speed to be so quick.

Just as Zhong Qing was searching for Lin Xiumu's whereabouts, a sense of danger suddenly struck him. Without time to think, he instinctively swung his warhammer, and a ring-shaped airwave spread out from him, attempting to force back the potential threat.

"Too late!"

Lin Xiumu's voice sounded from behind Zhong Qing, accompanied by a crisp snap of fingers. Countless tiny wooden thorns shot out from the void like a torrential rain, each one containing sharpness and power capable of piercing steel.

Although Zhong Qing reacted quickly, he was still half a beat too slow. His left arm was grazed by a wooden thorn, leaving a wound deep enough to see bone. Blood instantly stained his robe.

But the people around him, unable to dodge in time, were directly riddled with holes like a beehive. However, Zhong Qing suddenly grinned.

"Finally caught you!"

Lin Xiumu's expression froze. The next moment, an irresistible gravity suddenly descended, causing him to stumble and nearly fall.

This gravity was not just a hundredfold; it was a thousandfold.

"I know my strength is not as good as yours. If you kept consuming me from a distance, I would be invincible.

But your biggest weakness is that you care too much about your teammates. You won't allow a threat like me to exist."

As he spoke, Zhong Qing grinned, the blood covering his mouth making his smile appear slightly ferocious at this moment.

"So as long as I show a flaw, you will seize the opportunity to kill me at the first moment."

"Then you're really crazy enough."

Lin Xiumu responded while rapidly circulating the power within his body to quickly adapt to the pressure.

"I've only ever shown a hundredfold gravity for the Holy War. A thousandfold gravity isn't something everyone can withstand."

Zhong Qing tightly gripped his warhammer and began walking towards Lin Xiumu step by step, but even as an ability user, his speed was exceptionally slow.

This was due not only to his injuries but also to the gravity from all around.

"Brother Lin!"

Just then, several figures appeared a hundred meters away from the two.

Because if they got any closer, they would be affected by the gravity. "Zhong Qing, leave quickly, or we will attack!"

These people were Lin Xiumu's teammates. They stood a hundred meters away, targeting Zhong Qing and shouting loudly.

Seeing this, Lin Xiumu grinned, "Zhong Qing, this is the gap between us!"

Hearing this, Zhong Qing indeed showed a look of disdain, "Foolish, are they even worthy of being my opponents?"

Swish swish swish. Before Zhong Qing finished speaking, several attacks transformed and came towards him.

However, before these attacks could even get close, they were suppressed by the powerful gravity and dissipated in mid-air before reaching him.

"How could this be!"

Not only those people, but even Lin Xiumu showed a look of astonishment.

"Hahahahaha, this is the effect I wanted!"

Zhong Qing laughed up at the sky, "Nature type? Is it really that strong? Even if it is, today I, Zhong Qing, will be the first person to kill a nature type!"

With that, Zhong Qing's eyes turned cold. At this moment, he gathered all the power in his body, swung his warhammer, and slammed it down towards Lin Xiumu!

"Don't even think about it!"

At this critical moment, Lin Xiumu finally managed to barely adapt to the gravity. He hurriedly used his ability to grow countless vines and envelop himself.

"Boom!"

Instantly, a heaven-shaking roar suddenly erupted, making everyone's hearts tremble.

"Hahahaha, you will die... No, this is impossible, you clearly..."
