Chapter 853 - The strongest move

Saiki moved with extreme speed, appearing behind King of Swords in a flash.

But the King of Swords was no slouch, and he reacted swiftly. A myriad of petal-like thin blades came together, forming a defensive barrier behind him to block Saiki's attack.

"It is useless. My quantum weapon is invincible. There is nothing it cannot pierce through!"

Saiki had a sinister smirk on his face. He continued to drive his quantum long blade through the King of Sword's defensive wall of blades. The long blade easily penetrated the barrier and plunged into King of Swords' back.

"Urrgh!"

As the long golden blade pierced through his back and exited his chest, blood gushed from his wound.

King of Swords tried to suppress the pain. As beads of sweat trickled down his forehead, he involuntarily let out a painful grunt.

"Air Energy Cannon. Level 5!"

Saiki stretched his left hand out and took careful aim at King of Swords, and blasted a massive shot from his Air Energy weapon.

BOOM!

The loud explosion was followed by a mushroom cloud that rose high into the air. Taking such a hit at close range, not even the King of Swords could escape unscathed, and his severely injured, blood-drenched body spiraled down toward the ground.

"King!"

Curisa shouted, flying straight up into the air. All he cared about was to catch the King of Swords.

"Hehe, hehe…"

A cruel smile formed on Saiki's lips, and he discharged another shot from his Air Energy Cannon. It smashed into Curisa and exploded in a loud boom midair. Thick smoke billowed, and an arm was seen flying from the thick cloud of smoke. Curisa landed on the ground, covered in blood and wailing in excruciating pain. The shot had taken off his left arm. Blood kept pouring out profusely from the wound and he was unable to stop the bleeding.

"B*stard!"

Su Li furrowed her brows in anger. Her pair of purple eyes glowered with murderous intent. She gritted her pearl-white teeth, turned into a ray of Divine Light, and streaked toward Saiki, intending to kill him. Several beams of brilliant light followed her trail, and upon closer inspection, they turned out to be foot-long swords enveloped in a glowing film of energy. The brilliance radiating from the flying swords made Su Li look ethereal and divine.

As she was reaching Saiki, the flying swords suddenly flashed ahead of her like bolts of lightning. Before Saiki could even react, they struck at his energy shield with fearsome power.

CLANG! CLANG! CLANG!

The sky resounded with a report of deafening metallic rings. Su Li's flying swords had cracked the energy shield open!

"What? It is a Level 20 energy shield, yet it could barely handle an attack from you!" exclaimed Saiki, knitting his brows in surprise and wondering what was going on.

Suddenly, Su Li appeared in front of him with a Divine Sword in her hand. Without warning, she stabbed him in his chest, right through his heart, and out his back.

"Arrgh… it hurts! It is so painful… I think I'm going to die… Haha, haha…"

Saiki mocked Su Li by pretending to be in pain, then his expression gradually changed and he burst out laughing maniacally. " Maidservant, why do you not understand? I am immortal. No one on this planet can kill me."

Su Li clenched her jaw as she swiftly drew another Divine Sword and stabbed it into Saiki's head and chest.

Everyone knew that the heart and the head were the two most vital points, and any blow to the two points would prove fatal. But after thrusting her sword into both these points, nothing happened. It was like plunging it through water, and no blood poured from the wound. It was clear that they were not the weak point of this guy from the Yi Clan.

Su Li wondered what she had to do to defeat him.

For a fleeting moment, her mind was churning for ideas. Suddenly, Su Li sensed approaching danger and quickly retreated about ten feet away. A shot from the Air Energy Cannon flew past her, followed by a piercing howl. The cannonball traveled higher in the sky and exploded thousands of meters away. Within the blast zone of about a hundred meters, the shattering force formed dark voids.

"Aiya… I missed! You dodged my Air Energy Cannon—but it is to be expected of the maidservant whom I chose!"

Saiki slowly lowered his palm. The gaping wounds in his chest and head inflicted by Su Li's Divine Sword healed. A layer of golden light enveloped his body like golden liquid, and the wounds rapidly closed up. The golden light gradually faded and his armor formed over his newly regenerated flesh once again.

The sight of the regeneration process stunned Su Li. Disbelief spread across her delicate, pretty face. Could it be true that nothing could kill the guy from the Yi Clan?

If her opponent could not regenerate his cells, she believed that the Guardians from the Original World could handle him by themselves. She would not need to get involved. But she could not figure out what form of molecular technology the Yi Clan had developed. No matter how high her cultivation level was, nothing she tried had worked, and she had to accept that her opponent was truly invincible.

What should she do to defeat him?

Just what else could she do?

"When you are fighting me, it is not wise to let your guard down."

A sinister voice whispered into her ears. Su Li promptly snapped out of her stupor and realized that Saiki was already right beside her.

She steadied her nerves and launched an attack with her sword to cut down Saiki.

Saiki matched her weapon with the long quantum blade he instantly materialized.

Clang! Clang! Clang!

They clashed ferociously and a terrifying blast of energy spread across, causing fear among the inhabitants of the ruined Xiahai City.

Su Li launched a powerful strike at him, and Saiki was knocked high into the sky. A trail of flying swords cut through the air and followed Saiki, giving him no chance to defend himself as the sharp blades pierced through his body like a thousand arrows. His body was perforated full of holes and destroyed. But he swiftly regenerated his body in midair. The body parts came together and fused seamlessly, becoming whole again instantly.

If Duck Emperor were there, he would exclaim loudly, "Screw his ducking mother. Isn't he just like those powerful demons that have eaten the devil fruit?"

"It is useless. You cannot injure me, no matter what you do. Hehe, hehe…" Saiki said, laughing cynically.

Su Li was infuriated, and with no hesitation, she unleashed all her power at once.

The level of power she released could even destroy the Ri nation in one stroke, and it now gathered ominously around Saiki. The terrifying energy swirled and spread across Heaven and Earth. High above Su Li's head, the eye of the storm gazed down upon the entire world. Blistering winds swept the sky, and the ground rumbled and split apart.

A massive storm swept across the sky and thunder rumbled from within the dark clouds.

A dazzling light enveloped Su Li as she descended like a goddess, emanating a divine aura.

It was a technique that could dominate the world. Colors faded from Heaven and Earth. It was as if the world was about to end.

On the ground, the four severely injured Kings looked up into the sky. The amount of power that raged was enough to make their souls tremble.

Saiki was hovering in midair with a solemn look on his face. The system had given him a warning about the power that had just been unleashed. He would have to increase his energy shield to its maximum level to avoid a fatal blow.

" I cannot believe this woman trained herself to such a high level. Why is there no information on someone like her within the data files of The Ultimate Martial? She is not weaker than the Xiao War Clan!" Saiki trembled as he muttered to himself, then immediately increased his energy shield to the maximum Level 50.

HUMM~

The golden energy shield activated to its full level, it was impossible to see Saiki from outside the enclosed protective shield.
