442: Chapter 442 The Decisive Moment! A close-range ultimate attack shatters half of his body, and space freezes at the last moment.

The gray light sphere sliced through the golden ocean of spirit source.

Its speed was incredibly fast—Chain Resonance granted it a penetrative power far exceeding ordinary Law attacks. The hundred-meter distance was crossed within 0.3 seconds.

Within those 0.3 seconds, Myriad Manifestations Heavenly Venerate—

Opened his eyes.

A pair of ice-blue pupils.

There was no fear. No shock.

Only an extremely cold, scrutinizing gaze.

Just as the gray light sphere was less than ten meters from his chest—

Myriad Manifestations Heavenly Venerate's right hand moved.

His right hand lifted from his knee.

Lu Sheng's heart sank abruptly.

Something was wrong.

The Law blank period—it should have lasted one to three seconds—but Myriad Manifestations Heavenly Venerate moved less than a second after the shockwave was released.

His Law had not yet finished restructuring—his spirit source core was still in a state of collapse—yet he moved!

That pale right hand did not condense any Law.

It was a movement of pure Physical Body.

He simply—pushed.

A burst of pure physical strength, belonging to no Law, erupted from his palm.

The Physical Body of a Late Stage Peak Spirit Saint—even without the enhancement of Law—possessed enough power to shatter celestial bodies.

The wind from his palm slammed into the gray light sphere.

Boom—!!

The light sphere's flight trajectory was deflected.

It veered by about thirty degrees.

Away from Myriad Manifestations Heavenly Venerate's chest—toward his left shoulder.

But the light sphere was not completely blocked.

It shaved past Myriad Manifestations Heavenly Venerate's left shoulder.

Screech—!

The destructive energy of the Chain Resonance erupted the instant it contacted Myriad Manifestations Heavenly Venerate's Physical Body.

Myriad Manifestations Heavenly Venerate's left shoulder—the portion between the collarbone and the shoulder blade—was directly blown to bits by the light sphere's fringe effect.

Flesh, bone, and Law fragments—all were reduced to dust.

An entire arm—severed cleanly at the root of the left shoulder.

Golden blood scattered through the zero-gravity space.

"Hmph."

Myriad Manifestations Heavenly Venerate let out an extremely short syllable.

It wasn't a scream of agony. It wasn't a roar of rage.

It was just a flat "Hmph."

As if he had been bitten by a mosquito.

But he was indeed injured.

His left arm was gone.

Lu Sheng had no time to celebrate. Because the moment the gray light sphere deflected, he knew—the fatal blow had failed.

Myriad Manifestations Heavenly Venerate's Law framework was restructuring at a terrifying speed.

The Law blank period after the shockwave release—it should have been one to three seconds. But Myriad Manifestations Heavenly Venerate had used pure physical strength to react within that blank period.

And now—

A new Law framework was taking shape.

How many seconds did Lu Sheng have left?

He didn't know.

But he knew one thing—the Law interference he had struck with had worked.

The frequency deviation energy accumulated within Myriad Manifestations Heavenly Venerate's spirit source core—it erupted at the moment of Law restructuring.

The new Law framework suffered violent tremors during its formation. It was like a building under construction with explosives buried in its foundation.

Law Conflict!

"Ah—"

Myriad Manifestations Heavenly Venerate finally made a second sound.

This time, it was no longer indifferent.

It was a muffled groan torn out by the Law Conflict.

His spirit source core alternated frantically between expansion and contraction. The new Law framework would form one moment and collapse the next, as if oscillating back and forth.

The Law blank period was being extended!

It wasn't one to three seconds.

It was five seconds—six seconds—and it was still continuing!

"Second shot!"

Lu Sheng slammed his palms together.

The five elemental Laws initiated a chain reaction in his palms once again—Fire—Lightning—Water—Wind—Space—

One second.

The second gray light sphere took shape.

This time, he didn't project it from a hundred meters away.

He took a step forward—his dragon-transformed legs erupted with terrifying propulsion in the spirit source ocean—

Fifty meters!

He charged to a distance of fifty meters in front of Myriad Manifestations Heavenly Venerate!

The gray light sphere left his palm—

Myriad Manifestations Heavenly Venerate's ice-blue pupils stared fixedly at him.

An emotion finally appeared in those eyes—killing intent.

But his Law framework was still oscillating between collapse and restructuring. His Law—he couldn't use it.

He could only use his Physical Body to resist once more.

His right hand rose.

But this time—Lu Sheng had anticipated it.

When the gray light sphere flew to within thirty meters of Myriad Manifestations Heavenly Venerate—Lu Sheng's will moved abruptly—

The light sphere's flight trajectory suddenly changed.

Space Law—Curve!

The light sphere bypassed Myriad Manifestations Heavenly Venerate's right hand—drawing an arc from his right side—heading straight for the left side of his body, which was unprotected by an arm!

Myriad Manifestations Heavenly Venerate's pupils contracted sharply.

His right hand didn't have time to turn.

The gray light sphere accurately struck Myriad Manifestations Heavenly Venerate's left chest.

Boom—!!!

This time—it was a direct hit.

The destructive energy of the Chain Resonance exploded inside Myriad Manifestations Heavenly Venerate's chest cavity.

Half of the chest cavity was blown apart.

Ribs, heart, lung lobes—all were reduced to nothingness under the impact of the energy.

Golden blood gushed from the shattered chest like a fountain, forming a vast golden mist in the zero-gravity environment.

Myriad Manifestations Heavenly Venerate's body tumbled several times in mid-air.

His lips parted slightly.

No sound came out.

His spirit source core—Lu Sheng could clearly see it—that spirit source core, swollen to its limit, was trembling violently at the location of his Dantian.

The Law Conflict was still ongoing.

But the spirit source core did not shatter.

The spirit source core that Myriad Manifestations Heavenly Venerate had cultivated for hundreds of years, even while being torn by Law Conflict and having his chest cavity blown through, still stubbornly maintained its final integrity.

"Third shot," Lu Sheng's voice was hoarse.

The Human-Dragon State had already lasted for nearly a minute.

His spirit source was being consumed rapidly. His physical strength was plummeting. The triple all-attribute boost placed a massive burden on his body.

But he couldn't stop.

The third gray light sphere began to condense in his palm—

However, just then—

Myriad Manifestations Heavenly Venerate's spirit source core—

Suddenly stopped trembling.

He had forcibly suppressed the Law Conflict.

The new Law framework—at this very moment—took shape.

It wasn't the Spirit Immortal Realm.

But it was no longer the Peak Spirit Saint either.

It was an extremely unstable transitional state between the two.

Myriad Manifestations Heavenly Venerate's eyes snapped wide.

Ice-blue light burst forth from his battered body!

His right hand condensed a light of Ice-Sealing Law—

"Freeze."

A single word.

The space in front of Lu Sheng—was frozen.

It wasn't an ice seal. Space itself was frozen.

His third gray light sphere was only half-condensed—his fingers could no longer move.

The Law power could no longer flow.

Space Freeze.

"F*ck—"

Lu Sheng cursed a single word.

The triple physical strength of the Human-Dragon State, in the face of Space Freeze—

Was not enough.

He was pinned in place.
