Nuclear-powered Sword Immortal

Chapter 439: Chapter 435: Oppression

"Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!"

Fist Force broke the sky.

Thunder strike with the force of Mount Tai.

Driven by the electric current, Gu Jinlai, like a Future Soldier in a mechanical exoskeleton, unleashed a punch not only with a speed that had skyrocketed from before but also with greatly increased power.

Each punch he threw caused the airwave to explode, creating visible ripples splashing in all directions.

Even though the two were hundreds of meters in the Void, the power released still formed a monstrous hurricane stretching thousands of meters, which eventually turned into a continuous storm in the sky that lifted debris from many buildings of the Thunder Origin Sect, scattering sand and rocks.

Bai Fengyu, as a High-level Deva, not only held a Quasi-Dao Level Flying Sword but also wore a piece of Supreme Grade Spirit Armor.

The previous Divine Power, Thunder Staff, could only be considered a Support Divine Power, and after breaking through his Supreme Grade Spirit Armor and Protective Gang Qi, although it still caused a paralyzing effect, the remaining power was reduced to one-tenth, not even capable of making his body stiff, let alone slowing his True Qi.

But Gu Jinlai’s Thunder Sword was a result from merging the Thunder Staff with the derived Divine Powers from the Martial Saint Inheritance’s Great Thunder Sword Technique.

Although its firing speed had decreased, the attack power had greatly increased; the Thunder Power contained directly shattered Bai Fengyu’s Supreme Grade Spirit Armor and Protective Gang Qi, putting him in a rigid state.

Facing the hundreds of punches that Gu Jinlai followed up with nearly instantaneously driven by the electric current...

A sense of fear and despair suddenly enveloped him completely.

"No! No! No!"

Bai Fengyu screamed in horror, his True Qi boiling to its peak, and the Heaven and Earth Primordial Energy was constantly shaking.

But it was like using hundreds of hydrogen bombs to bombard a mere tsunami hundreds of meters high and dozens of miles long.

Although Bai Fengyu did his utmost to execute secret techniques and desperately burst forth, even trying to transform the Force of Heaven and Earth into a Wall of Gang Qi, under the Fist Force of Gu Jinlai, all Gang Qi was blasted into dust like rotted wood pulled apart.

The next second, dozens to hundreds of Fist Forces struck him like a thunder strike with the force of Mount Tai, his already pierced Supreme Grade Spirit Armor was instantly torn to shreds, and equally torn to shreds was...

The body of this High-level Deva.

"Boom!"

Blood mist exploded.

Bai Fengyu, the strongest among those who had besieged them, had no chance to even use his Divine Powers before Gu Jinlai, who had taken the initiative, blasted him in mid-air.

He failed to display his true strength before he died.

"Rumble!"

It was as if thunder rumbled through the Void.

As if a bolt of lightning had shifted direction.

It was Gu Jinlai, who had killed Bai Fengyu, rapidly changing direction, holding the Cheng Ying Sword, charging from the sky towards Zhang Zhongshan.

Due to Gu Jinlai’s swift elimination of Bai Fengyu, Zhang Zhongshan had only just managed to activate his Martial Arts Will and Martial Arts Divine Power.

"Roar!"

Along with a roar, it seemed a giant bear appeared above his head, howling towards the sky, creating a terrifying presence like Mount Tai crashing down, impacting Gu Jinlai’s spirit.

Martial Arts Will.

This was the Martial Arts Will of Zhang Zhongshan.

He primarily cultivated the Earth Ferocious Bear Bloodline, and the Will he had condensed tended towards Mount Tai crashing down, which seemed to roll over any opponent with the most powerful force, like mountains collapsing and the earth splitting.

At that moment, the Martial Arts Will and the Martial Arts Divine Power he intended to unleash were also the same.

Like Mount Tai pressing down, the Martial Arts Will interfered with Gu Jinlai’s spirit, and the Fist Force he blasted out was like a mountain majestically rising from the Earth.

From above, from below, it seemed to grind everything caught in the middle into dust.

Martial Arts Divine Power—the Heaven and Earth Grinding Plate.

"Boom Boom Boom!"

Thunder exploded.

Affected by Zhang Zhongshan’s Martial Arts Will, Gu Jinlai’s Thunder Sword seemed unable to be unleashed in time. When the dazzling lightning pierced through the Void, it collided exactly with Zhang Zhongshan’s Divine Power that surged like a rising mountain.

The later stroke was actually quicker.

Zhang Zhongshan, wearing gloves, blasted out the Martial Arts Divine Power of the Heaven and Earth Grinding Plate, which collided with the lightning of the Thunder Sword, seemingly setting off an aerial bomb in the void.

The violent shockwave, mixed with exploding Gang Qi, wildly splattered in all directions, slicing through the land for hundreds of meters.

The two closest pavilions were directly shattered by the slap of Gang Qi, like blocks toppled by a playful child.

If at this time he were surrounded not by Martial Kings but by some ordinary martial artists, even military generals, they would have been torn apart by this exploding Gang Qi, reduced to a bloody blur.

The shockwave dispersed.

The Supreme Grade Spirit Artifact containing the Thunder Sword was directly blown away, but Zhang Zhongshan, impacted by the power of the Thunder Sword, felt a slight numbness throughout his body, his movements involuntarily slowed down by a fraction.

"Peak Martial King!? Impossible! A Peak Martial King could not possibly be this strong. Who are you really..."

Zhang Zhongshan glared with rage, his tone filled with shock.

He didn’t finish his sentence before Gu Jinlai, who had descended from the sky, was already upon him.

For martial artists, this kind of close combat, any slight delay could be the line between life and death.

Gu Jinlai naturally would not miss this opportunity.

Electricity propelled him.

He almost recreated the scene of his recent kill of Bai Fengyu.

Punch!

Crazily punching!

Punching as fast as lightning, as rapid as thunder!

Zhang Zhongshan, already devastated by the collapsed force of the Heaven and Earth Grinding Plate, was now subjected to the remaining Fist Force, which stormed down like a tempest.

That instant of fist shadows...

Made Zhang Zhongshan’s pupils involuntarily widen.

He suddenly let out a long howl, seemingly using some secret technique to squeeze out all his potential, facing the myriad of fist shadows blasted by Gu Jinlai, and then...

He punched to meet the attack!

"Boom Boom Boom Boom!"

Fist Force collided with Fist Force in the void, igniting a shockwave that nearly tore everything within a hundred meters to shreds.

The constantly exploding power madly sliced and impacted the surroundings, even the other few Martial Kings who hurriedly arrived to join the siege felt somewhat unable to withstand it.

This was...

The mightiest clash between two top-tier Peak Martial Kings!

"Aaaah!"

Zhang Zhongshan bellowed fiercely, his entire body’s Essence Qi Spirit was exhausted with the powerful punch he threw, unleashing unprecedented ferocious attacks and completely shattering the Fist Force that Gu Jinlai had launched.

But...

He could block ten or twenty punches, even a hundred, but he finally could not withstand the bombardment of hundreds of punches.

Finally...

This intense, wild, and rapid pounding, feeling as if years had gone by, lasted for a mere second...

"Bang!"

Zhang Zhongshan’s arm suddenly bent and shattered...

as if struck by a Fist Force too fast to be seen with the naked eye.

A ghastly pale white mixed with flesh was exposed with the breaking of his ulna from the elbow.

Immediately after...

Humerus, scapula, ribs, sternum...

All shattered, his body collapsed with one fist mark after another!

Some Fist Forces even pierced through his body, blasting his clothing to shreds behind him, and without losing momentum, they smashed into the ground behind him, causing the ground to crack and stone chips to fly.

Abruptly!

The roaring screams and numerous fist shadows came to an abrupt halt.

Faintly, time seemed to freeze.

Zhang Guanghua, Lei Dao, Guang Ye, and others who came charging to attack Gu Jinlai caught a clear glimpse of a Fist Force from the myriad fist shadows striking the head of this Peak Martial King, right after all his defenses had been broken.

"Bang!"

The frontal bone shattered.

The fierce Power tore through Zhang Zhongshan’s frontal bone that protected his brain, relentlessly penetrating his brain, the shock waves crushing his frontal lobe, cortex, parietal lobe, brain stem, cerebellum...

All ground into dust.

Immediately thereafter, the shock wave exploded outwardly, and this Peak Martial King couldn’t even let out a final scream as the upper half of his body was blasted into a mist of blood.

"No!"

Zhang Guanghua let out a heart-wrenching, unwilling scream upon witnessing this scene.

Zhang Zhongshan!

Peak Martial King!

The magic stabilizer of their Zhang Family, the very essence that stabilized the Zhang Family’s footing in the Inner City.

But now...

Dead!?

"Gu Jinlai!"

Zhang Guanghua roared, his secret technique erupting, his blood energy surging like a dragon, his whole being like a fierce Demon Ape smashing through the air waves, charging fiercely with a heavy sword right up to Gu Jinlai.

"I’m going to..."

"Clang!"

Zhang Guanghua’s furious, somewhat loss of control scream had not yet finished when it was abruptly cut off by a clang of metal on metal.

There seemed to be sparks on Gu Jinlai’s body.

Driven by the electrical current, his Fist Force seemed to defy physics, striking ferociously and incredibly swiftly at the side of the heavy sword swung by Zhang Guanghua, the two meeting and emitting a crisp sound.

The inertia from the hit on the side of the heavy sword carried Zhang Guanghua’s body sideways, causing his posture to slightly destabilize.

But before he could regain his balance, Gu Jinlai’s attack followed closely behind.

It was as if he had activated a double-speed mode.

Everyone’s attacks seemed slow in comparison to his; others might have swung a sword once, and he had already launched the second, or even third punch.

Just like now, one punch deflecting Zhang Guanghua’s heavy sword, his Fist Force immediately following, smashing into his chest...

"Crack!"

The sound of bones breaking echoed clearly across the plaza in front of the Thunder Origin Sect Hall.

Anger and loss of control froze instantly in Zhang Guanghua’s eyes.

Despite wearing a top-grade Spiritual Armor himself, the penetrative power within the Fist Force still broke his sternum and crushed his organs, and then passing through his body, released from the back, creating an air explosion that blasted further back.

"How can it be... so fast..."

Zhang Guanghua opened his mouth, wanting to say something.

But the profuse blood mingled with the organs shattered by the Fist Force gushed uncontrollably, preventing him from forming a complete sentence.

Behind him, one could faintly see Guang Ye, the Top Martial King, roaring and unleashing Divine Skills, striking with a sword filled with hurricane and thunder.

But before the strike could reach, Gu Jinlai’s Life Magnetic Field and Star Magnetic Field surged, and the next moment...

"Swoosh!"

His figure, enveloped by an air wave, shot up into Yunxiao.

As Guang Ye activated the Divine Skills, boosting the sword light, the slash infused with a hurricane so swift just passed over the spot he had just been standing, barely making a phantom trace.

At this time, Zhang Yuhua was completely knocked back by the power contained in the Fist Force, crashing heavily to the ground.

All his organs were crushed.

Even as a Martial King, he couldn’t survive such injuries.

He felt his life rapidly ebbing away from him.

He struggled to keep his eyes open and saw Gu Jinlai ascending into the void.

Looming hundreds of meters above like a true Deva, he looked down with a commanding view at the remaining six Martial Kings of the Thunder Origin Sect...

Zhang Guanghua could even sense the increasingly intense and desperate scent of fear emanating from all six Martial Kings.

This power, this oppression, this suffocation, this despair...

It seemed like an unreal nightmare, dispersing his thoughts, consciousness, and bringing his life to a complete end.
