Chapter 263: No Way, I Want To Top Up More Money!
“Heavenly Wilderness 36 Hammers: Star-Smashing Hammer!!!”
A youth dressed in Golden Divine Armor and holding a massive hammer appeared on the God of War platform.
The hammer was covered in a silver-white liquid layer such that the hammer exuded an immensely heavy pressure.
As the hammer came smashing down, even the fabric of space became distorted.
Sparks ignited in the air from the powerful friction, like stars falling across the sky.
The target of the hammer was a middle-aged man dressed in a sackcloth. His face betrayed a myriad of expressions.
What’s going on?
Wasn’t this guy’s forte using spirit fog to conceal himself, burrowing into the ground, and then using Divine Devouring Vines for a sneak attack?
Why did this young punk change tactics now that I am prepared to deal with those Divine Devouring Vines?
Sword Venerable Long River was beaten into a daze as the hammer landed once and again.
It wasn’t that his sword skills were not good enough. It wasn’t that his sword intent wasn’t firm enough…
The reason was very simple. Shen Tian’s foundation was just too solid. His Godfiend Golden Body was also powerful beyond normal levels.
Although he was only at around the Golden Body Second Refinement Stage—with nourishment from the five extraordinary items—his strength, speed, and defensive properties were without flaw.
If one really wanted to compare, just Shen Tian’s Godfiend Golden Body alone was enough to face off a Golden Body Fourth or Fifth Refinement Stage cultivator. And this was not counting the power of the extraordinary items yet.
The Feather Immortal Metal increased his speed, the Divine Devouring Vine enhanced his regenerative abilities, the First Essence Heavy Water improved his defenses, the Nan Ming Li Fire complemented his attacks, while the Pure Reincarnation Earth gave him immunity to almost everything.
Given the five extraordinary items and his body, Shen Tian’s battle prowess was perfect and without any vulnerability. He could even take on a Golden Body Sixth or Seventh Refinement Stage prodigy.
His foundation was far better than Li Canglan’s, whose cultivation level had been suppressed down to a Golden Body First Refinement Stage. This was a completely dominant advantage.
Li Canglan had to use maximum effort just to brace himself with every swing of Shen Tian’s Purple Firmament Heaven Hammer.
Meanwhile, Li Canglan’s soaring sword aura was completely useless against the Black Tortoise Armor’s defenses.
In the face of this absolute power, all his techniques and skills had become inconsequential.
…
“Scoundrel, that scoundrel!
“You possess a Divine Sword Constitution but chose to wield a hammer.
“You are a disgrace to the Sword Dao. I must teach you a good lesson!”
Sword Venerable Long River was full of shame and anger. A formidable Long River sword aura congregated in the broad sword he was holding.
All the Divine Devouring Vines backed off from that mighty sword aura. After all, he was the Eastern Wilderness’ great Sword Venerable. He would not fail in the same thing twice.
If Shen Tian only had the Divine Devouring Vines, he would have definitely lost this round.
Unfortunately, Shen Tian had too many techniques. The Divine Devouring Vine was just one of them.
“God of War First Transformation: Heavy Water Transform!”
The projection once again forced Li Canglan backward, as if he no longer wanted to drag things any longer.
A faint silver glow covered his entire body, which flickered rapidly.
Soon, Shen Tian’s aura completely disappeared. It was like an ordinary mortal man was standing in front of Li Canglan now. But a lock of hair on this ordinary mortal man had turned silver-white.
Following that, the lock of silver-white hair slowly stood up, emitting a profound but faint aura.
“Enhancement Technique?”
Li Canglan didn’t let his guard down just because of the sudden appearance of that lock of hair on Shen Tian’s head. After all, he was a right and proper swordsman.
As a result, at this very moment, Li Canglan could feel an unprecedented sense of danger from Shen Tian.
He knew very well that Shen Tian was now going to show his true power.
Li Canglan already needed to burn his own Qi in order to defend against Shen Tian’s Purple Firmament Heaven Hammer.
Shen Tian had clearly learned an extremely advanced Godfiend Body secret technique. Not only could he activate his body’s true inner potential, but he could also leverage the energy of the extraordinary items.
Shen Tian was now twice as powerful as before, after undergoing the God of War Transformation.
“Although you are very powerful, I am not afraid of you!”
Li Canglan’s eyes shone with resolution. A Thousand Divine Sword avatar emerged behind him.
It was worth mentioning that every single one of those divine blades was cracking.
A formless sword intent grew stronger as those swords cracked in half, and all of that power surged into Li Canglan.
“I must defeat you!” Li Canglan roared before suddenly shooting straight at Shen Tian.
At this point, his sword was slicing through everything it made contact with, even the fabric of space.
Even Ye Qingcang, on the seventh floor of the God of War Pagoda, couldn’t help nodding quietly.
“Another good seed.
“It’s just that he is too foul-mouthed. He called my pagoda dilapidated right from the start. And now, he is spouting obscenities. He is completely not as likeable as those two youngsters.
“You want to challenge Tian’er? You want Tian’er to learn sword skills from you? Hmph, I will hammer you to death!”
Li Canglan did not know that this so-called Pagoda Spirit was actually a lewd old man who loved to peep at others.
He only had one notion in his head now. And that was to defeat this projection in front of him.
Li Canglan was already harnessing his Sword Dao to its maximum limits. He could even vaguely feel that he was making contact with an invisible barrier.
If he could break through this barrier, he would enter a whole new realm. An extraordinarily marvelous realm!
“Bigger is not always better. Sometimes, the smaller the weapon, the deadlier it is!
“Attack!”
At that cold command, a three-inch sword aura shot out of the sword in Li Canglan’s hands.
This three-inch sword aura did not look particularly mighty. But it could only be formed from concentrating sword energy to maximum levels.
Compared to his previous soaring divine sword aura, the attacking power of this new three-inch sword aura was much more formidable. It could slice through everything, tangible or intangible.
“Size is everything! Increase!”
Shen Tian’s projection uttered a phrase that the God of War platform had recorded previously.
At the same time, the hammer in his hand grew even bigger. It was now as long as a telephone pole and as wide as a truck.
Surrounded by lightning bolts, one couldn’t help shuddering in fear at the sight of it.
The massive hammer collided with the three-inch sword aura. A shattering sound could be heard, and fragments of broken space shot out in all directions.
“How could it be so hard!?”
A look of disbelief flashed across Li Canglan’s eyes.
His three-inch sword aura had the reputation of being able to slice through everything. He could even slash an entire region in half.
Although he had been suppressed to the Golden Body First Refinement Stage, he had absolute confidence in killing a cultivator at the Nascent Soul stage.
After all, this three-inch sword aura was just too dense and compressed.
But faced with that Purple Firmament Heaven Hammer, which had been clearly magnified several-fold, its strength was still compact beyond belief.
Li Canglan’s three-inch sword aura was unable to penetrate the hammer. Instead, the sword aura shattered into pieces!
…
“How did he do it?”
Li Canglan’s eyes were quivering in shock. He felt like he had come into contact with a brand new realm.
On the one hand, he felt like he had entered, but then again, it felt like he was still just outside!
A powerful instinctive feeling rose in his heart. He believed that his Sword Dao could be brought to the next level if he could just understand that feeling,
It was a pity that he wasn’t given much time to try and wrap his head around it. This was because after the hammer shattered his three-inch sword aura, that massive hammer continued to descend.
Li Canglan’s body was smashed to bits.
The Pagoda Spirit’s voice rang out. “Middle-aged prodigy. Don’t be disheartened. Believe in yourself. You will do better next time.”
The corners of Li Canglan’s mouth twitched. He was… completely thrashed again!
No way! I want to top up more money!
Again!
