Chapter 7017 Undeterred and Unstoppable
Slavnis wasn't stupid. He wasn't familiar with Wang Heng, but he knew exactly what kind of situation Ibias was. This guy's strength was no weaker than his own, and in terms of functionality, he was even stronger. Yet, this guy was now being hunted down.
There's no need to think at all; just a glance is enough to tell the strength of the middle-aged man charging towards them with such a menacing aura. Since that's the case, there's no need for further discussion!
When Wang Heng saw Slavnis, he was somewhat wary, but since they were both at the seventh level, he wasn't really afraid. At most, he was worried that Slavnis and Ibias might join forces, but when he arrived, he heard Slavnis's smug tone and knew that the two of them could never team up.
If this were a different battlefield, a life-or-death struggle, Ibias would surely have joined forces with Slavnis to kill Wang Heng, and then curse him after the battle. But in this situation, I, a dignified Roman master of the seventh level of forging, would rather die at Wang Heng's hands than let you make such a judgment.
No, I'll kill you before Wang Heng kills me!
With this in mind, Ibias, who was making a lewd noise, decisively attacked this guy who was theoretically his teammate. Seeing this, Wang Heng did not attack Ibias, but instead raised his sword and struck at Slavnis.
The lightning-fast combined attack was so fierce that even Slavnis, clad in the Wings of Light, found it difficult to dodge. After all, Ibias had a clear understanding of Slavnis's talent structure and had prepared various blocking and suppression measures when he raised his hand, making it impossible for Slavnis to break through the attack instantly. As for Wang Heng, it was simple: "This strike of mine, no matter what you are, if it hits, you die." This was a strike that severed recovery, severed will, and severed any possibility of survival!
Slavnis sensed something was wrong the moment Wang Heng swung his sword. Who the hell taught you to decide life and death with your first move? Holy crap!
At our level seven, we even have deadly moves that we can unleash in a fight. Aren't you afraid of missing your target? Are you crazy?!
Regardless of what Slavnis thought, Wang Heng simply raised his hand and struck. Many of his moves were learned from Guan Yu, and he had mastered them to the fullest. In any case, Wang Heng used this cleaving slash with great ease, and he had achieved numerous victories over the years.
As for not hitting anyone and wasting a lot of energy, that's okay. Trust your teammates, have faith in them, and then try again!
With such a resolute belief, when Wang Heng swung his greatsword, Slavnis didn't even have a chance to dodge. As for taking the hit head-on, what a load of crap! If this move could be taken head-on by someone of the same level, then what would be the point of Wang Heng?
Knowing that dodging was impossible and that taking the hit would only lead to death, Slavnis gripped his spear tightly, unleashing all his talents to the limit. He threw the finishing move that Zhang Ping had transformed into at the center of the three of them. Damn it, let's all die together!
The light, the flames, the terrifying impact—the instant Zhang Ping's finishing move struck the ground—engulfed the three people who were very close by.
A mushroom cloud rose, and a terrifying shockwave of light and heat instantly engulfed the three gods who were standing at almost the three points of an equilateral triangle. At this moment, Elias was completely stunned. He had just used a normal raised hand to suppress the attack, so why did Slavnis explode at him?
Without daring to delay in the slightest, the moment Zhang Ping plunged into the earth and light surged from it, Elias had already completed the switching of all his talents at an unprecedented speed.
Spiral force field, force field manipulation, steel body, attack cancellation, impact cancellation, and then all sorts of techniques were used to ensure that the devastating attack could be withstood with an extremely strong defense, and to retreat outwards so as to survive the next first wave of impact!
For Elias, as long as he survives the first round, even if he is seriously injured and on the verge of death, as long as he is not killed by someone, he can rely on things like Life Imprint, Super Speed Recovery, Qi Meridian Connection, Infinite Serpent, and Initial Reincarnation. Before long, he will be a hero again.
Therefore, the only thing to consider right now is to survive. As long as he can survive, the rest will not be a problem. So, realizing that something was wrong, Elias released Slavnis's restraints the moment the light rose and then desperately used his force field talent to retreat rapidly.
This probably bought Elias and Slavnis about 0.5 seconds.
Similarly, the moment Ilias gave up suppressing and restraining him, Slavnis unleashed his Wings of Light and ran back as fast as he could. Even though he had done this so many times, this was the first time he had thrown Zhang Ping two steps away from his feet.
This thing is a real nuclear bomb. Slavnis does have the Wings of Light and is indeed fast, but he's not fast enough to dodge it at such a short distance.
As for Wang Heng, the moment he saw the light bursting forth from the earth, he knew he was doomed. But once the swordsman started charging forward, there was no turning back. Even if there were mountains of knives and seas of fire ahead, they would cut through them with their swords. Only with such willpower could they carve out a way out of death. And Wang Heng was one of the best among them!
Faced with the rising light, Wang Heng's full-force attack, originally intended to strike Slavnis, was instead slashed directly at the pillar of light erupting from the earth!
"Open for me!" Wang Heng roared and swung his sword down. His absolute domineering spirit and unwavering will allowed him to unleash his most powerful strike in the face of death. The azure light that extended from top to bottom showed unparalleled resilience in the face of a pillar of light dozens of times larger than itself, extending downwards against the pillar of light.
The blade of light, carrying the unwavering belief of dominance, possessed the power to tear apart any obstacle in its path. After slicing through the Spear that pierced the world, it directly shattered the Miracle Transformation, the Oath, and Zhang Ping's own terrifying defenses that bound him. With a single stroke from top to bottom, it cleanly cleaved Zhang Ping in two.
Zhang Ping was eliminated on the spot, but the world-piercing spear that Wang Heng had cleaved with his domineering spirit did not completely dissipate. The mushroom cloud still rose from the earth. Wang Heng was stirred up by the chaotic shockwave and was powerless to cleave the mushroom cloud. He could only be swept away and thrown out.
"You've grasped the essence," Lu Bu said to Guan Yu, turning his head. Wang Heng's final strike already possessed the spirit of Guan Yu. Although his foundation was still somewhat lacking, his fighting spirit had been fully displayed.
Guan Yu stroked his beard, nodded, and said nothing, but his expression clearly showed his satisfaction. As a strong person, when fighting alone to the last moment, one must believe in oneself and one's weapon.
"He actually killed Zhang Ping outright." Zhang Ren looked down with some weariness. Once Zhang Ping unleashed that move, theoretically, no one except a very few who had broken through the barrier could withstand it. And just now, someone had withstood that move and forcibly broken through it.
“There is never an invincible move. It’s just that before today, no one chose to gamble their life to take it head-on.” Zhao Yun said with a sigh. He had seen Zhang Ping’s move before, and because he had seen it, his advice had always been to dodge it if possible, because this move was too strong. It was a real world-breaking attack, and it could be used under the influence of clouds.
Even though the suppression of the cloud energy would greatly reduce the explosive power of this move, the destructive power of the core area would still be at the level of breaking through boundaries. In other words, theoretically, if Zhang Ping were to go all out, this move would be impossible to block under the cloud energy.
However, what just happened was as if it was clearly telling everyone present that this move could be blocked. As long as you are not afraid of death, as long as you can also unleash a world-breaking attack, with one strike against the other, Zhang Ping will definitely die before you!
"I actually lost?" When Zhang Ping appeared at the Myriad Manifestations Divine Palace, although his mind was not very clear, he still saw clearly the scene of Wang Heng splitting him in half at the last moment. So his move could be countered like that.
"Hey, you're out so quickly." Zhang Yong said to Zhang Ping with a grin.
"Damn it, Zhang Er, I challenge you to a one-on-one fight!" Zhang Ping roared.
"Why don't you save your energy? You really can't beat me right now, I'm not kidding," Zhang Yong said with a grin. "Remember when we fought Brother Huang?"
Upon hearing this, Zhang Ping's memory finally cleared up, and his hand trembled slightly as he pointed at Zhang Yong. "Damn it, you beast! You're already at the seventh level, and you're still pretending!"
Thinking of this, Zhang Ping grunted, sat down, and said nothing more.
Seeing this, Zhang Yong chuckled and didn't say much. In fact, Zhang Yong was at his weakest in the past three years. Zhang Huang's willpower surpassing was not so easy to overcome, and the seventh level of talent that could shatter the future was not something that could be easily dealt with.
Zhang Yong is currently in the backlash period. Although he is still a sixth-level fusion miracle, his actual combat power has dropped significantly. If Zhang Ping were to actually fight Zhang Yong, his chances of winning would probably be quite high. Unfortunately, Zhang Ping has witnessed the heaven-defying phenomenon of the End of Light, so he is somewhat reluctant to fight this beast Zhang Yong.
"So, how did you get out?" Zhang Yong asked, somewhat puzzled.
"When I activated my finishing move, Wang Heng killed me along with the finishing move with one strike. Although the finishing move was released, a line was indeed cleaved in two." Zhang Ping didn't hide this, after all, he needed to review how he lost.
Moreover, for these top-tier veterans, this defeat is actually a reminder, beneficial to their progress.
"Oh, I see. So there's such a way to counter his moves." Zhang Yong stroked his chin and said. When he fought Zhang Ping, he didn't dare let Zhang Ping really unleash his finishing move. After all, even with Zhang Yong's strength, it was impossible for him to withstand that move.
Unexpectedly, Wang Heng chose to cleave Zhang Ping in two the instant his attack was unleashed. The timing was superb, but many people present could have done the same. As for the claim that even if they had, they would have inevitably died...
"Uh, Brother Heng is still alive." Zhang Yue chuckled. "It seems that this method of breaking the move not only defeats the opponent but also allows one to survive. Very good, I'll try it next time."
Zhang Yue was confident he could cut through any obstacle in his path. His idealism was enough to allow him to sever all physical defenses. So, as long as he seized the opportunity, Zhang Yue could do what Wang Heng had done before. And if Zhang Yue could do it, then at least a dozen other people should be able to do it too.
"Huh?" Zhang Ping looked around and found that Wang Heng had indeed not woken up yet. He shook his head repeatedly. This was already impressive. However, considering that he had left the stage, his finishing move had lost the support of his own will. The originally regular interference had turned into chaotic destruction. It was normal that he could not kill an elite of the Seventh Refinement level.
“It’s probably because Zhang San was killed first, and the subsequent attacks, without his will to interfere, became chaotic destruction.” Sun Er understood the reason after a little thought. “No matter how the finishing move changes, it is essentially still a process of human will to correct and reorganize certain perceptions of reality. Without self-will and without these interferences, the remaining power becomes an ordinary natural phenomenon.”
It's not that ordinary natural phenomena aren't powerful enough, but rather that with the intervention of self-will, these forces can be gathered together and exert a more ferocious effect. Without self-intervention, these forces cannot be gathered together. The total energy and energy level may be the same, but the effects produced can be vastly different. This is the meaning of human existence.
"To be honest, I had never really considered directly cutting through Zhang Laosan's finishing move before." Bi Laoliu tossed the steel sword in his hand, thinking that with his dynamic vision and reaction ability, he could still seize that opportunity in the blink of an eye.
The only problem is that while Bi Laoliu might be able to seize the opportunity, he probably won't be able to cut a line in Zhang Ping's finishing move with his sword.
Almost all the top elites involved in reaction speed judged that they should be able to seize that fleeting opportunity, to catch that momentary opening, and then directly cut off Zhang Ping's finishing move by a single point, attacking Zhang Ping's body directly and successfully breaking through his defenses...
The group of veteran soldiers present, who comprised nearly 80% of the elite forces of the Han Dynasty, could probably only meet a portion of the conditions. Only a dozen or so of them could meet all of them.
"The answers are all out, but are there fifteen people who can actually do it?" Sun Er directly voiced everyone's thoughts.
The veterans looked at the key personnel they knew who could do this kind of thing. It was obvious that there were only about a dozen of them, and they were all elites that everyone was very familiar with.
"Some things can't be done just because you know the answer," Wei Shuang said, shaking his head. He could do it too, even though he was often overshadowed by Sun Er, his fundamentals were really strong.
While the veterans were exchanging information, the mushroom cloud in the small world had mostly dissipated. This time, even more veterans saw the mushroom cloud because the area of the small world had shrunk further. Some veterans even found themselves in a daze, one second in a forest and the next in an ice field. There was no way around it; the entire world was shrinking collectively.
"What happened?" Zhao Zhen's punch missed, and he looked around. He was stunned to find that Hasgard, who had just fought him, and his teammate Yang Tuo were gone.
On the other side, Yang Tuo stared in disbelief as Zhao Zhen, who had been fighting Hasgard in front of him, suddenly disappeared. The open terrain had suddenly turned into a forest, and what was worse, he was left with only himself and Hasgard, who had his back to him.
"What's going on?" Hasgart scratched his head; he and Zhao Zhen were having a great time fighting.
In all these years at the Qi Refining stage, Hasgard had hardly seen any veterans who dared to punch him and have a good fight. Even the legion commander and camp commander of the Tenth Knight didn't like to fight him. When he finally met Zhao Zhen, who had reached the seventh level, he was really excited. What's more, Zhao Zhen was the only one who could make him feel pain and excitement from pure strength. But how did he die while they were fighting? What happened?
"Where is Master Zhao?" Hasgart asked Yang Tuo in broken Chinese, and Yang Tuo's face turned wary the moment Hasgart turned around.
There's no way around it. Yang Tuo's strength is enough to fight most of the sixth level and a few seventh level opponents that he can counter. But to fight a strong and powerful seventh level opponent like Hasgard, that would be a joke.
The six-fold cellular-level linkage was attached to Hasgard's body. Yang Tuo didn't know if Hasgard would move or not, but Yang Tuo estimated that if Hasgard exerted force, Yang Tuo would definitely have to move.
"I don't know. Suddenly even the environment has changed. We were fighting in the open field before, but now this place has become a forest area," Yang Tuo said, looking around with some doubt.
"If you don't know, do you have any investigative abilities?" Hasgard thought for a moment and decided to go find Zhao Zhen. It was rare to encounter a tough guy who could fight him, and if he missed this opportunity, he didn't know when he would have another chance to have a proper fight.
As for the task assigned by Perennis, which was to intercept Jiang Guang or something, forget it. We haven't encountered Jiang Guang since we entered, and we've done our duty to the judges for so long. It's time to go do our own personal work.
“We lack reconnaissance capabilities,” Yang Tuo said honestly.
"Alright then, you'll have to be converted into points." Hasgard said bluntly, "What use are you without reconnaissance capabilities?"
"Huh?" Yang Tuo was speechless. This guy is being a bit too direct.
However, seeing Hasgard swinging his fist, which was as big as a sand bowl, rushing towards him, Yang Tuo ran away without saying a word. He was not Zhao Zhen. With his bones and muscles, if he took a punch from Hasgard, even if he didn't explode, he would probably suffer multiple comminuted fractures all over his body!
It's a top-tier, sixth-level forging technique, no matter what. If you can't beat it, just run away!
Take a break, and if you can claim the God's Light, remember to do so the day after tomorrow.
