Chapter 1601: Full Strength
It had been a very long time since Xiang Shaoyun last met an opponent that could match him evenly like this. Thus, he derived great satisfaction from his fight with Zi Yao. But as Tang Longfei, Xia Liuhui, and the others started suffering one setback after another, his patience ran thin, and he was on the verge of using all his strength.
After a series of exchanges, he had figured out Zi Yao’s strength. This was an opponent strong enough to slay Gods, but not strong enough to stop him. With the Primal Inception Saber and primal chaos lightning, he finally gained the upper hand, forcing a bloodied Zi Yao to retreat again and again. Both of them were lightning users, but Xiang Shaoyun’s primal chaos lightning was much more powerful. With his lifebound weapon in hand, he seemed unstoppable.
“Scram, or I’ll kill you for real,” said Xiang Shaoyun with his gaze focused on Zi Yao.
He did not really hate Zi Yao. He wouldn’t have uttered such words otherwise.
“Haha, you think you’ve already won? You’re too naive. Talk again after surviving my strongest attack,” said Zi Yao. Ignoring the wounds on his body, he howled with laughter.
His aura surged unendingly as lightning enveloped his body, giving him an astonishing appearance of a lightning-man.
Three-layered Lightning Transformation: first transformation, Illusory Lightning Body!
Instantly, Zi Yao transformed into 81 clones and charged toward Xiang Shaoyun. Each clone was a material body, and each of them carried a berserk strength. The clones surrounded Xiang Shaoyun from all directions.
The Illusory Lightning Body was a technique only someone with high mastery over the power of lightning could cultivate. It was not something an ordinary person could resist. In fact, Zi Yao had once forced a second-stage God to flee from him with this technique. He firmly believed that the technique was strong enough to kill Xiang Shaoyun.
As Xiang Shaoyun faced the numerous clones, Xiang Shaoyun’s eyes flickered with an odd radiance. He used the finger of his free hand as a sword and swung in one direction.
Instant Tempo!
Time seemed to stop as all 81 clones became immobile. The strongest among them, Zi Yao’s main body, was finally revealed. With a flicker, Xiang Shaoyun charged over and whipped his leg toward him.
Boom!
Zi Yao had not expected his technique to be countered so easily. He was sent flying away as a mouthful of blood spurted out of his mouth. He slammed into a distant boulder, causing the boulder to crumble apart.
“Impossible! How can my Illusory Lightning Body be countered?” exclaimed Zi Yao in disbelief.
His wounds healed rapidly as a deep look covered his eyes. An unyielding willpower surged from him as boundless lightning covered his body. “I will not be defeated!”
Three-layered Lightning Transformation: second transformation, Lightning God’s Wrath!
It was as though the god of lightning had taken over Zi Yao’s body. A terrifying phantom attached itself to his body, and the purple sword in his hand transformed into a lightning hammer. The hammer was swung at Xiang Shaoyun with the might to contend against second-stage Gods, a might capable of disintegrating the world.
Even Xiang Shaoyun felt a heavy pressure when facing the hammer. With his current strength, it wouldn’t be easy to resist.
“Fine. I’ll use you to compress the little bit of God Realm energy I have remaining,” said Xiang Shaoyun with a firm look in his eyes.
Prior to this, he had reached late-stage Great Saint Realm by absorbing the God Realm energy from the Immortal Arena. In truth, a little bit of the energy remained in his astral cosmos sea. He now wanted to complete his absorption of that final bit of energy.
As he activated the Desolation mantra, the astral energy in his body started compressing. The energy circulated incessantly in his body, covering him with a multicolored radiance that made him look like a regal child of the heavens. The Primal Inception Saber in his hand also shone gloriously, and his lightning bone rippled with powerful primal chaos lightning. Up in the sky, primal chaos lightning bolts took form and rained down on him.
Nine Overlord Skyslaying Saber Technique: eighth stance, One Slash to Shift the Sun and the Moon.
Instantly, a sun and a moon appeared above him. The sun and the moon revolved as they emanated a destructive force that threatened to destroy the entire world. The lightning god thus clashed against the sun and the moon!
Two peerlessly destructive powers clashed, instantly creating a terrifying lightning shockwave. The surrounding people hurriedly fled in panic. Those unable to flee in time were bombarded to the point their organs shifted positions and nearly lost their lives.
“He actually forced my boss to such an extent? Is Xiang Shaoyun really that strong?” asked Zi Xinghe with a solemn look on his face.
“Heh, the overlord will regain his peak strength from his past life soon. Nobody can stop his advance!” said Devouring Ghost with a look of reverence.
The Nine Overlord Skyslaying Saber Technique was a technique Xiang Shaoyun had created in his past life. There was no doubting the technique’s might when it was powered by primal chaos lightning.
However, Zi Yao’s Three-layered Lightning Transformation was also monstrously strong. The sun and the moon above Xiang Shaoyun were blasted apart, and his body suffered a serious injury as he was sent flying far away, leaving a trail of blood in the air.
Zi Yao also suffered tremendously. The Three-layered Lightning Transformation was a technique that exhausted a lot of his energy. He had used almost all his strength to release that attack before Xiang Shaoyun struck him several times. His god body cracking apart, Zi Yao suffered a serious injury that made it impossible for him to continue attacking Xiang Shaoyun. One could say that both of them had suffered from their confrontation.
Everyone was overwhelmed with shock when they saw the two seriously injured combatants.
“Overlord!” Lu Xiaoqing cried out as she rushed over. However, Devil Concubine stopped her and said, “Don’t worry, the overlord will be fine.”
Sure enough, the two combatants immediately bounced off the ground.
Lightning Restoration Technique!
Utilizing his secret healing technique, Zi Yao hurriedly healed himself. He had to regain his combat strength before Xiang Shaoyun. Only then would he be able to grab the victory of the fight.
Profundity of life, Secret Reversal Technique!
In terms of healing, Xiang Shaoyun was clearly superior. With his understanding of the profundity of life, he could rapidly heal his own injuries. A firm look flickered in his eyes as he charged Zi Yao with the Sky Measuring Step before fully healing.
Xiang Shaoyun never lacked fortitude. He was someone who had endured numerous hardships, a man who had walked a path of blood and suffering.
Nine Overlord Skyslaying Saber Technique: final stance, One Slash to Reverse the Universe!
Zi Yao stared at Xiang Shaoyun as lightning energy revolved around his body, his desire for victory surging to an unprecedented level.
