Chapter 536: Chapter 251: Vanguard Army, Triple War Merit! (Seeking Monthly Votes)
"Brother Xu actually forced Lan Yu into such a situation..."
Seeing the scene of Lan Yu self-destructing his Golden Core, both Zhong Qiang and Zhang Yuandong were in disbelief.
Of course, they knew of Lan Yu’s great reputation!
As the fifth-ranked Earth Star Genius on the Profound Ranking, his hands were stained with the blood of Blue Star Martial Artists, countless brigade-level battle formations having been massacred by him.
And now, just Xu Zhou alone, without relying on the power of a battle formation, actually suppressed Lan Yu to such a state!
However, at this moment, Zhong Qiang still felt tense: "The self-destruction of a Fourth Transition Golden Core can unleash the power of a High Grade, Brother Xu is in trouble!"
They had witnessed Xu Zhou’s combat power before.
If faced with a High Grade, Xu Zhou alone would definitely not be able to contend!
"Whole army, stand by!"
Zhong Qiang gave a low shout, prepared that if Xu Zhou was overwhelmed, he would strike down Lan Yu with thunderous means!
...
"Whoosh!"
On the battlefield, the Sword Qi formed from Lan Yu’s self-destructing Golden Core, shot explosively towards Xu Zhou.
This Sword Qi tore through the Void, almost instantaneously reaching right in front of Xu Zhou.
"Buzz!"
Fortunately, at this moment, the energy at Xu Zhou’s fingertips had finally accumulated to its peak, and he pressed his finger forward.
"Boom!"
A red beam shot out from his fingertip.
Nine Yang Star Breaking Finger!
With Xu Zhou’s current cultivation using this move, it already had the appearance of "star breaking."
Where the beam passed, the Void visibly collapsed, forming shock waves that spread at an astonishing speed over thousands of miles.
It could be imagined that with this one strike, even a small asteroid would explode on the spot.
"Boom!"
The red beam collided with the Sword Qi, erupting in a thunderous roar.
Yet the red beam quickly began to dissolve, instantly being suppressed.
It was clear that although the Nine Yang Star Breaking Finger was already incredibly powerful, it was still slightly inferior compared to Lan Yu’s desperate outburst.
Seeing this, Lan Yu’s face immediately showed a hint of pride, but then turned ferocious: "I self-destructed the Golden Core, and even if you have an army of 8,000 behind you, I must kill you today!"
The self-destruction of the Fourth Transition Golden Core brought him an extremely terrifying boost.
So much so that now, Lan Yu, even when facing an army of 8,000 people alone, was confident of escaping intact.
But before that, he had to kill Xu Zhou!
"Die!"
Lan Yu formed a seal with his hands, and the Sword Qi immediately unleashed its full power, completely suppressing the red beam, then stabbed towards Xu Zhou’s face.
Lan Yu’s mouth curled into a smile, as if he could already foresee the scene of Xu Zhou being pierced through the forehead by his sword and dying on the spot.
But in the next second, the smile on Lan Yu’s face froze.
Suddenly, an energy ten times stronger exploded from Xu Zhou’s fingertips.
"Boom!"
Like an anti-star cannon firing, an extremely terrifying energy shot out, instantly tearing apart Lan Yu’s Sword Qi.
Then, with unstoppable momentum, it slammed through Lan Yu’s body.
"Boom!"
After the energy beam pierced through Lan Yu, its momentum did not decrease, and it shot forward, leaving a trail of tens of thousands of meters long in mid-air.
Thousands of kilometers away, a mountain was pierced by the energy beam, collapsing with a rumble, instantly flattened.
"This... impossible..."
Lan Yu’s eyes still showed disbelief, as his body rapidly tore apart.
Then with a "bang," he exploded into a mist of blood.
Even till his death, he could not understand how Xu Zhou had executed that move.
Because that energy clearly far exceeded the limit of the Sixth Grade, not even reaching the Seventh Grade!
This was an Eighth Realm level killing move!
How did Xu Zhou, with a Sixth Realm body, unleash an attack comparable to the Eighth Grade!!
...
At the scene, Xu Zhou glanced at the ring on his hand. A light flashed across the ring, then it completely dimmed.
Xu Zhou sighed softly: "I have to accumulate energy again."
The move he just unleashed naturally came from the Spiritual Pressure Ring!
After previous accumulation in the Nine Heavens Thunder Pool, the energy within the Spiritual Pressure Ring had accumulated to a terrifying extent.
Of course, Xu Zhou could sense it hadn’t yet fully reached the Eighth Grade level.
But even with just a quasi-Eighth Grade level attack, it was enough to crush the self-destruction of a Fourth Transition Golden Core.
The only pity is that such a powerful killing move can only be used once in a short time, and after use, it must be re-accumulated for several days before it can be used again.
This is still with the accumulation time in the Nine Heavens Thunder Pool. If not in such an extreme environment, Xu Zhou might need over ten days or even dozens of days to fill it up.
"However, it is indeed very strong!"
Xu Zhou recalled that moment just now, feeling a bit excited.
The main reason he chose to duel Lan Yu outside the battle formation was to test the power of this Spiritual Pressure Ring.
Now, he has personally experienced how fierce a quasi-Eighth Grade level attack is.
Once he fully charges this Spiritual Pressure Ring to unleash a true Eighth Grade attack, he should be able to barely defend himself even against an Eighth Grade enemy by that time.
"General Xu, mighty!"
"General Xu, mighty!"
At this time, a loud cheer came from behind.
The entire 23rd brigade soldiers raised their weapons, cheering with excitement.
Xu Zhou flew back to the large formation, pressing his hands reluctantly to signal them not to be so excited.
Zhong Qiang patted Xu Zhou on the shoulder, his face showing a hint of trepidation: "Brother Xu, your last move really scared us!"
