Tangyu had the Square Inch Kill on his body, and with his current strength, although the opponent was very strong, especially terrifying in terms of assassination skills. Even a strong cultivator of the second layer of the Zifu Realm might only have a chance to lament in such a situation. But unexpectedly, Tangyu managed to retreat unscathed and even killed the opponent. This strength was indeed astonishing.
Even the King of Liang's expression abruptly changed. Such a situation was beyond his expectations; how could this be?
"Dead? A member of the Heavenly Demon Tower was just killed like that? What was that technique just now?" The two Zifu Great Powers behind the King of Liang were also a bit dumbfounded.
The people of the Heavenly Demon Tower have always been terrifyingly powerful, with their assassins rarely having equals within the same realm. Although the Heavenly Demon Tower sent two Zifu Realm second layer Great Powers this time, their true strength could actually rival some Zifu Realm third layer Great Powers. Such strength, combined with ambush, still ended in failure. Not only did they fail, but they were also killed in return.
This scene was truly unbelievable, leaving the King of Liang incredibly bitter at heart. Tangyu was clearly just a kid in the Golden Core Realm Ninth Layer, so how did his strength reach such a fearsome level? A Great Power of the Heavenly Demon Tower was instantly killed, needing immense strength to manage that. Under such circumstances, to retreat safely, how strong must one be?
The King of Liang now realized he had underestimated Tangyu.
Meanwhile, on Sun Wukong's side, he was solidly struck by the Heavenly Demon Tower's assassin. However, Sun Wukong's battle power was immense; the Jingu Bang in his hand transformed into a heavenly pillar, directly blocking in front of him, shielding him from the strike. Then, Sun Wukong used this opportunity to break through to the Zifu Realm second layer, and after his breakthrough, Sun Wukong retaliated forcefully. He smashed a heaven-shaking strike down, leaving the Heavenly Demon Tower's assassin with no escape, hit to death by Sun Wukong's staff.
Its soul was completely destroyed, and its body turned into mince, dying a tragically horrible death, shocking and frightening anyone who saw. A Zifu Realm Great Power was slain like a mere chicken.
Sun Wukong's strength was earth-shattering, and his unparalleled battle power, now advanced to the Zifu Realm second layer, made his might all the more terrifying.
Though the two assassins sent by the Heavenly Demon Tower weren't very strong, the most terrifying aspect of an assassin is defeating the strong while being weak; it's about killing. Assassins hide in the dark and strike unexpectedly, posing a frightful threat, capable of defeating the strong while weak. This time's situation was indeed very dangerous for Tangyu and Sun Wukong. If Tangyu didn't have the Ground Shrinking Spell or the Square Inch Kill, he might have fallen at the hands of the Heavenly Demon Tower's assassins.
Sun Wukong's power was too overwhelming, and it was clear the Heavenly Demon Tower underestimated him, hence suffering such a massive loss.
In this battle, both Zifu Realm cultivators from the Heavenly Demon Tower were slain. This result made the King of Liang's face look extremely unsightly, finding it difficult to accept such a reality. However, now facing the iron-clad facts, he had no choice but to accept them.
His face turned gloomy, clenching his teeth in anger, lowering himself somewhat: "Damn it, really damn it, I underestimated these two. No one would have thought their strength far exceeded my expectations, and the two allies of the Heavenly Demon Tower died in their hands. It seems this battle won't be as easy as expected. I must fight with all my might."
The King of Liang became ruthless, finally realizing a bit of a dangerous aura, unlike before when he was full of confidence and poise. Now, his confidence was evidently shattered somewhat.
Sun Wukong snarled, waving the Jingu Bang in his hand: "Despicable fellows, resorting to such underhanded tactics. Hmph, now it's time for my fierce comeback. Brother Tangyu, now is our time to shine."
Tangyu nodded, feeling inwardly irate. He hadn't expected the King of Liang to be so despicable, using such a shady move. If not for his fast reflexes and strong power, he would have been slain. That would have been an unjust death.
At this moment, both Tangyu and Sun Wukong fiercely counterattacked, advancing towards the Thunder God of War. The Thunder God of War Great Formation remained strong, but now Sun Wukong's power had significantly increased, and Tangyu used the fantastic trump card Square Inch Kill, further boosting their strengths considerably. Together, their joint attack unleashed terrifying might.
BOOM!!!
BANG!!!
The destructive power heavily sliced through the Thunder God of War, sending it flying. More than twenty cultivators were either smashed to death by the Jingu Bang or killed by the Square Inch Kill. This blow directly shattered the Thunder Great Formation into pieces, causing it to crumble instantly, and all the cultivators returned to themselves, breaking the formation. More than twenty cultivators were slain, and the others were more or less injured, some quite severely.
Clearly, this group of cultivators had lost most of their combat strength. If Tangyu and the others wished, they could easily slaughter them all.
Having broken through these two layers of formations, Tangyu and Sun Wukong now stood before King Liang. King Liang's face was grim, staring at Tangyu with a cold and calculating gaze, clearly filled with murderous intent.
Tangyu sneered, "King Liang, you are indeed insidious. I always knew you harbored ill intentions. Haha, I didn't expect your skills to be this good, managing to hire two Zifu Realm assassins to kill me. Last time, your assassins failed, and this time, you're repeating the same trick. Though your methods have improved, it's still to no avail. Trying to kill me, Tangyu, won't be that easy. Whatever tricks you have, go ahead and use them."
King Liang's eyes were icy as he glared at Tangyu, "Tangyu, don't be arrogant. Do you really think, as a wet-behind-the-ears kid, you can do as you please? I admit, I underestimated you. Your strength is indeed beyond my expectations. But do you really think Liang Kingdom has no means to deal with you? Do you truly believe that Liang Kingdom will be trampled under your feet? Haha, such ignorance."
Tangyu mocked, "Whether it's ignorance, that's not for you to judge. All your bluster is meaningless. Ultimately, the power that speaks is strength and the final outcome. You have your confidence and your trump cards; we have our assurance. When warriors meet on a narrow path, the brave will win. Since we're here today, it's naturally a fight to the finish. Unless victory or defeat is determined, the battle stands unresolved."
"Today, either you, King Liang, die, or we perish. So, save your breath and big talk. When you have the strength to defeat us, then you can brag. For now, let's fight, let strength speak. Whatever secrets Liang Kingdom holds, bring them out. I know Liang Kingdom still has formidable old relics; don't hide them away. Bring them all out for the final battle, let's end it swiftly."
King Liang sneered disdainfully, "With just the two of you, you're unqualified. Let me see just how much strength you really have."
As he spoke, King Liang, also enraged, made a move. His fury was akin to Mount Xiang erupting, unleashing a terrifying momentum. King Liang made his move, wielding an ancient giant sword in his hand that exuded boundless divine might. The intimidating force burst forth, dominating the world, and everything seemed to submit under his feet. This giant sword was an upper-grade Daoist artifact, emanating a formidable aura that could suppress Golden Core Realm cultivators.
With the upper-grade Daoist artifact's might, King Liang's strength significantly increased. The sword, merely standing there, radiated a terrifying sharpness.
Holding the giant sword, King Liang seemed to transform into an ancient king, a supreme king, a sovereign of true dragon aura, making the world submit. His momentum surged to an extreme, making him dreadfully terrifying. King Liang's strength was indeed remarkable, extraordinary. Once he acted, the world changed colors, corners trembled, and people worshiped. The supreme aura swept the world, making all within a hundred miles feel his supreme sovereign aura, naturally kneeling in submission.
Golden light shot out from King Liang's body, an unrivaled divine might. With one step, he reached Tangyu and Sun Wukong, striking down with a sword. It was as if the supreme sharpness from the Nine Heavens descended, giving Tangyu the illusion of being indefensible.
Tangyu's battle intent was fully ignited, his blood boiling, as if even his chest would burst. This sensation pushed Tangyu's potential to its limits, about to erupt like a volcano.
Sun Wukong's battle spirit was sky-high, growing stronger under pressure. With such oppression, Sun Wukong wielded the Jingu Bang and charged upward, delivering a earth-shattering strike. King Liang, a Golden Core Realm Fifth Layer, with the giant sword enhancing his strength, reached a profoundly high level. However, Sun Wukong remained unafraid, his aura unmatched.
"Yes, this is the feeling, exactly this, haha, breakthrough, Pangu Nine Axes, Seventh Axe!" Tangyu's heart suddenly surged with explosive joy, a feeling of exhilaration, a fountain within him burst forth. He finally stepped out, breaking that thin membrane; the Pangu Nine Axes, Seventh Axe, was finally cultivated.
The Pangu Axe swung down at King Liang, while the Square Inch Kill was also unleashed. Tangyu and Sun Wukong's simultaneous aggressive attacks posed a dangerous situation for King Liang.
The other two Zifu Realm also attacked, seizing the opportunity to strike at Tangyu and Sun Wukong, aiming to catch them off guard. From King Liang's side, the calculations were indeed accurate. However, these calculations were destined to fail.
The battle instantly reached an extreme level, becoming intensely spectacular, making the onlookers' hearts race with fear.
Yan Nantian and his companions closely watched, awaiting the final outcome.
