Chapter 1020: Chapter 552: Chaos Star Domain, Selection
Jiang Shu lightly smiled, against the backdrop of desolate deathly aura, he no longer held back, wielding the Big Halberd in his hand, slicing through space, speeding forward.
This Big Halberd was already extremely sharp, plus it had the power of ten laws, its strength had nearly transcended the Tenth Realm Middle Stage.
Though Zhan Yun was clad in heavy armor, she dared not be careless, swinging the Bronze Battle Axe tightly, blocking all the desolate deathly aura outside, vaguely forming a Taotie phantom, opening its bloodthirsty mouth, silently roaring, forming an indestructible barrier, clashing with Jiang Shu’s Big Halberd.
Zhan Yun’s Bronze Battle Axe suddenly emitted a long ancient beast-like chant, the Taotie phantom burst from the axe blade, devouring the invading desolate deathly aura into its belly, then opened its mouth to spit it aside.
Zhan Yun’s feet stamped through the void, golden battle patterns appeared all over her body, twelve time wrinkles unfolded from the Bronze Battle Axe.
She and Zhan Feng were siblings of the same mother, most of their combat methods were the same, but she did not have Zhan Feng’s innate powerful physique that was superior to countless others, after the Taotie phantom swallowed the attack, she could not resist the backlash like Zhan Feng did, but used the technique of moving a thousand pounds with four ounces to divert the attack elsewhere.
"Be careful."
Zhan Yun’s toe tapped the ground, the Bronze Battle Axe vibrated and trembled in her palm. Crimson golden blood gushed from her pores, the void was pressed into web-like cracks by this pure power.
Jiang Shu’s pupils narrowed, the dragon along his spine shook fervently, thirteen chains of the Law of Power drilled out from his pores, interweaving in the air into divine patterns.
Before the axe blade arrived, the pure power ripples had already stirred up a towering wave.
Jiang Shu’s muscles twisted like dragons, instead of retreating, he advanced, spreading his fingers to grab at the axe blade.
As skin met bronze, the space beneath their feet simultaneously collapsed into dust, power ripples shattered the space of hundreds of feet around them, the space turbulence whistled, stirring Zhan Feng’s thoughts.
It hadn’t been long since the last battle, yet he discovered with surprise that Jiang Shu’s combat power seemed to have risen again.
"Such strength breaking finesse!"
Zhan Yun stood in the void, confronting Jiang Shu.
The Taotie pattern on the axe blade wriggled like a living thing, Jiang Shu immediately felt a suction force from his palm, his body’s energy and blood uncontrollably surged toward the battle axe.
He stomped his right leg forcefully against the void, the exploded blood vortex actually tore a gap in the Devouring Law, seizing the node where the battle axe absorbed.
The Bronze Battle Axe emitted an ancient beast-like wail.
Silver rays burst in Zhan Yun’s eyes, transforming into twelve figures.
These were Zhan Yun at different ages, some wielding huge hammers, some holding long spears, all carrying the lethal energy of a force enough to move mountains.
Jiang Shu’s whole body’s bones burst with thunder, a grand manifestation appeared behind him, three hundred and sixty acupoints simultaneously gushed clouds of energy and blood.
"Ha!"
Jiang Shu exhaled and cried out, his fist cloaked in Chaos Thunder, crashing into the time wrinkle. The Law of Power showed its most ferocious face.
The shadow of past and future was crushed into powder by pure power, Zhan Yun’s true body staggered back, fine cracks appeared on the axe blade, and then disappeared again.
She suddenly smiled broadly, all her battle patterns burned, transforming her into the embodiment of the Law of Power.
The Bronze Battle Axe disappeared.
Or rather, Zhan Yun herself was the battle axe.
Every gesture was the ultimate realm of strength, the trajectory her fingertips traced was the perfect power curve.
Seriousness flared in Jiang Shu’s eyes, the Three Holy Embryos simultaneously performed a spell, the Heaven-Eroding God-Slaying Halberd transformed into gray gold radiance merging into his right arm.
When pure power reached its peak, even time and space halted.
Where their fists and palms collided, the void first shrank to a needle-point singularity, then erupted in a shockwave sweeping across the galaxy.
A faint sound of bone cracking echoed in Zhan Yun’s ear, she decisively shattered three layers of energy and blood, moving her body half an inch just in time.
The gray gold halberd grazed her collarbone, desolate deathly aura and the Law of Power collided, creating a chaotic primordial scene.
Zhan Yun stumbled, landing on the ground, a wound opened an inch on her shoulder, fresh red blood flowed, yet she grinned and laughed, "Such an impressive technique!"
"What’s this move called?"
Jiang Shu shook his head, his chest slightly heaving, in this battle he too expended a lot of energy and blood.
"It’s not really a skill, just a way of using energy and blood, something I realized while sparring with Brother Zhan, it’s immature and needs honing and practice."
"Simply put, it’s to resonate three hundred and sixty-five acupoints around the body, compressing space with acupoint energy and blood."
Though the three had only met a few times, they got along remarkably well.
Jiang Shu had no intention to hold back.
Secluding oneself in cultivation is a dead end; only by being accommodating and inclusive is the essence of cultivation.
Zhan Feng, hearing the words, suddenly stood up, his eyes shining brightly.
He saw clearly that just now Jiang Shu’s strike turned his body acupoints into miniature sources of power, precisely the "All Heaven Stars" prototype recorded in ancient books of the War Alliance.
This young man from Xuanxing had actually stepped into a realm on the Power Dao that even he himself had not truly understood, it was truly astonishing.
"All Heaven Stars?"
Jiang Shu nodded, indeed quite fitting.
Having expended much energy and blood, he directly sat on the ground and said to Zhan Feng: "Today’s sudden visit is first for sparring, but also because of some rumored opportunities in Deep Space Sea that have been circulating lately, the truth is hard to discern."
"I have some channels, have learned a few things, we might as well exchange some information."
