She radiated with a glow as if nourished by divinity, courageously pressing forward to continue her fierce battle with Big Ao.

DING!

[Nearby bragging has triggered a critical hit, reaching the System's peak value. Congratulations, Host, for gaining Mana +297 and Mana Quality +297!]

[Congratulations, Host, for obtaining the "Great Luo Supreme Divine Sense" Complete Experience Card!]

It's peaked! Finally, it's peaked!

A smile curved Wang Xiu's lips. All his and Li Xuanqi's hard work in boasting to each other had not been in vain. Being at the top of the Golden Core Ranking really was different!

The peak came fast and hard!

「...」

Big Ao looked at Li Xuanqi, who was charging at it again, and was stunned. Its huge head was filled with confusion.

Wait, is this Human Race woman crazy? What kind of deep-seated hatred does she have to make her fight so desperately? She's struggling even when she can't win? What set her off?

It turned its massive turtle head, looking toward Wang Xiu.

That human seems to have some unique method to continually amplify this woman's fighting spirit! Humans... They really are all annoying!

ROAR!!!

It finally erupted in a complete fury. An endless array of dense, dazzling runes burgeoned from its shell. Treasure light shot up to the heavens, and the divine light was blindingly brilliant.

A wild surge rose between heaven and earth as waves thousands of feet high crashed down. The void shattered and the earth split open, revealing countless cracks tens of feet wide. Terrifying columns of water surged from the depths like tentacles, attacking Li Xuanqi.

Li Xuanqi's expression changed. The space around her seemed restrained, making it difficult to dodge. The roaring waves carried world-ending power. If she were hit, her chances would be slim, even with the Sun Gold Wheel for protection.

At that moment, Wang Xiu's voice rang out again.

"Senior Sister, don't panic! I'm here to aid you!"

His white robes fluttering, Wang Xiu instantly appeared before Big Ao and struck with his palm.

BOOM!

Endless runes blasted forth.

Big Ao's mountain-like body trembled. Its colossal, once-immovable form was nudged, its forelimbs lifting slightly to expose its snowy-white underbelly.

He then struck out with his palms repeatedly. Countless runes exploded as unimaginable power slapped against the void again and again.

The towering waves were forcefully split, brushing past Wang Xiu and Li Xuanqi.

That was close!

Li Xuanqi watched, her pupils contracting.

Indeed, Wang Xiu hides his strength well. With just these few moves, his power is no less than my own... And what's more...

Li Xuanqi could feel that Wang Xiu was still holding back, not using all his techniques.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

Enraged, Big Ao reared up on its hind legs. Its head plunged deep into the void like an ancient Demon God before it suddenly crashed down, causing the very heavens and earth to collapse.

Wang Xiu remained unfazed. He took out the Wind-Fire Five Beasts Fan and fanned it fiercely.

A harsh wind howled. A terrifying gale, like a wildfire consuming a plain, swept through the void and scorched across Big Ao's belly.

AARGH—

Big Ao cried out in pain. The armor on its belly was seared and covered in scars, and the gale flipped its entire body over.

Li Xuanqi's gaze suddenly fixed on a certain spot.

As Big Ao roared at the sky, its belly was exposed. Though it was also protected by a hard shell, Li Xuanqi discovered that all the power and runes currently emerging from the beast originated from a specific point on its underside. It was like the wellspring of all its power, the focal point where all runes and ancient patterns converged. It was emitting the most blazing light.

She realized this was very likely Big Ao's fatal weakness.

Without time for a second thought, her black hair billowed as vast Mana surged through her body. She activated the Lunar Golden Wheel, unleashing a terrifyingly sharp strike aimed directly at that spot.

BUZZ! BUZZ! BUZZ!

The Lunar Golden Wheel sundered the heavens, its silver edge blanketing the sky.

Big Ao instantly sensed an unprecedented danger, and its massive body began to tremble.

It instinctively lifted its pillar-like legs to protect its vital point, but how could its clumsy movements possibly match the extreme speed of the Lunar Golden Wheel?

In an instant, CRACK!

The world seemed to freeze. Cracks originated from Big Ao's belly and rapidly spread across its entire body before it finally disintegrated with a roar, turning into a dazzlingly brilliant shower of crystal fragments.

It's over...

Li Xuanqi's beautiful eyes were full of disbelief. She had actually won. Such a terrifying, king-level Void Beast had died by her and Wang Xiu's combined hands. The realization left her somewhat dazed.

CLAP! CLAP! CLAP!

Wang Xiu approached her, applauding with a beaming smile. "Senior Sister Li, you're incredible! That attack was both fierce and precise. You finished off Big Ao in one strike!"

Li Xuanqi looked at him, her gaze complex. "It was all thanks to you, Junior Brother. If I were alone, I could never have done it!"

She was speaking from the heart.

Though Wang Xiu had only acted briefly, each of his blows was crucial and executed with casual mastery. In the end, he even used that unknown, powerful Magical Treasure to flip Big Ao over, exposing its fatal flaw.

"Senior Sister, you don't need to be so humble. Even without me, you would have surely succeeded!" Wang Xiu said with a dismissive wave and a laugh. "Let's not stand here being modest. Senior Sister, go take a look! Big Ao must have had a rare treasure inside it. It's bound to be extraordinary!"

Li Xuanqi snapped out of it and turned to look.

Amid the rain of crystal fragments, a ball of azure light floated quietly. A spiritual presence could be faintly seen pulsing within, as if it were a living creature.

Li Xuanqi moved her long, jade-like legs, tapping lightly on the void to cross the distance and grasp the object within the ball of light.

"Is this... a Primordial Black Tortoise Remnant Soul?" Li Xuanqi's red lips parted slightly in surprise. The aura within this ball of light was exceptionally uncommon—it was ancient and contained divinity.

It was actually the remnant soul of a pure-blooded Black Tortoise from the primordial era.

It contained a thread of its True Spirit from before its death.

It had endless miraculous uses.

"No wonder Big Ao was so powerful…" Wang Xiu remarked, clicking his tongue. He had guessed that the strange object inside Big Ao was special, but he never expected it to be such a divine artifact.
