Chapter 250 Even Immortals Can Be Opposed? Still Instant Kill
The reason this move is said to be able to "defeat even the immortal" is that if a peak Realm Lord uses this move, he can make the Divine Weapon instantly traverse the void, just like teleporting, suddenly disappearing and then suddenly reappearing at a certain point to carry out an instant assassination!
Weapons traverse the void, appearing and disappearing intermittently. Naturally, this is much simpler than physical teleportation, so even with the spatial laws reaching the thirteenth level and the metal laws nearing their limit, one can barely unleash the basic power of this move.
Even at its basic power, this move can be described as "enough to defeat even the immortals"!
Because a peak Realm Lord unleashes this move, its immense power and the sudden, abrupt attack of the golden sword piercing through the void—even ordinary Immortal Gods must be on guard and dare not recklessly accelerate to catch up. Suppose an Immortal God inadvertently accelerates to pursue a Realm Lord, and a golden sword suddenly appears before them—even if they survive, they would likely be severely injured. Furthermore, this prevents Immortal Gods from pursuing Realm Lords at their fastest speed.
Therefore, this move can be described as "immortal and capable of defeating".
—When the dark golden staff on the back of the Flame Armored Man exploded instantly, transforming into the most perfect form of the Divine Weapon: a 3.3-meter-long golden sword.
Almost simultaneously, with a soft "whoosh," the Divine Weapon behind Xu Qing also emitted thousands of golden lights. Amidst the flying sword shadows, without the slightest hesitation, it also condensed into a 3.3-meter-long golden sword. The two swords faced each other in the air, the law aura emanating from their blades subtly resisting each other, revealing a somewhat competitive stance.
"Here it comes! It's also the ninth level of the Nine Heavens!"
Outside the light screen, the Nine Swords Venerable couldn't help but speak up, his gaze fixed on the screen, his tone full of amazement.
"Back then, even geniuses like Shi Huo and Ke Di, who were once-in-a-million or even once-in-hundred-million-epochs ago, only had a comprehension of the fundamental laws at the cosmic level. They weren't even close to Xu Qing's level, let alone the details like the amplitude of his psychic power and the control of his techniques. They were far inferior!"
The King of Nanhu Kingdom picked up the conversation, his tone tinged with uncertainty: "But no matter how strong one's talent, the thirteenth level of the Bridge to Heaven is ultimately an Immortal-level barrier. The guardian possesses the power to 'fight even Immortals'—Xu Qing will have to fight a tough battle to get through this level, won't he?"
The venerable ones around him nodded in agreement.
Although they had acknowledged Xu Qing's talent, they were also aware of the difficulty of the thirteenth level of the Sky Bridge.
This is a hurdle that even a genius who appears only once every hundred million epochs might not be able to overcome even if they give it their all and use all their trump cards. No matter how extraordinary Xu Qing is, a "bitter battle" is inevitable.
Two 3.3-meter-long divine swords faced each other on the surface of the star on the thirteenth level of the Tongtian Bridge.
"kill!"
The Flame Armor Man made the first move. He no longer concealed himself, but directly unleashed the full power of "Even the Immortal Can Be Enemied". His dark gold longsword, with a sharp whistling sound that tore through space, stabbed straight toward Xu Qing's heart. Wherever the sword passed, even the scorching flames on the surface of the star were cut in half, leaving a dark trail in the void, so fast that only a blur remained.
Outside the light barrier, the Nine Swords Venerable clenched his fist tightly: "It's here! The true power of 'Even Immortals Can Be Confronted' has arrived! Even if Xu Qing has a strong understanding of the laws, he'll still be in trouble if he takes it head-on—"
Before he finished speaking, Xu Qing also moved.
The golden sword in his hand had no extra moves. It simply followed the opponent's sword momentum, slightly deviating by half an inch, and then thrust forward in the same way. The movement was not fast, even half a beat slower than the man in the flame armor. However, the law patterns on the sword suddenly lit up, like a golden lightning bolt, instantly catching up with the opponent's sword speed.
"Ding!"
The tips of the two golden swords collided in mid-air, producing a crisp sound.
"A clash of titans! Surely there's going to be a fierce battle now?" Outside the light screen, King Zhenyan murmured unconsciously, forgetting even to breathe.
The gazes of hundreds of cosmic venerables were fixed on the two swords.
In an instant, everyone's pupils contracted sharply.
Just as the two swords clashed, Xu Qing's bright gold longsword suddenly veered slightly to the side.
The angle was so subtle it was almost invisible, smaller than an atom. It was as if the sword itself had trembled slightly in the void, yet it just barely deflected the dark gold longsword of the Flame Armored Man, and even shattered his power.
At the same time, the speed of the longsword suddenly increased, as if it had calculated every inch of the opponent's movement in advance, and stabbed straight towards the heart of the man in the flame armor.
The man in the Flame Armor's pupils contracted sharply. He tried to adjust his sword stance to parry, but his body seemed to automatically press against the sword. Xu Qing's golden sword had already reached his chest first.
"Pfft!"
The moment the gleaming golden sword pierced the chest of the flaming armored warrior without any resistance, the crisp sound of it cutting through the air was particularly jarring on the Skybridge.
Immediately afterwards, countless fine sword lights burst forth from the swords and blades, like an invisible sword net, instantly tearing the body of the Flame Armor Man into a sky full of sparks.
His dark gold longsword remained suspended in mid-air, still carrying the lingering heat, but it was no longer controlled. In the blink of an eye, it disintegrated into tiny particles of light, dissipating along with the wind on the surface of the star.
The thirteenth floor was still an instant kill!
The island plaza in the Skybridge dimension remained deathly silent for a full three breaths.
"No—impossible!" The Nine Swords Venerable broke the silence first. He abruptly raised his hand and pressed it against the edge of the light screen, his knuckles turning white from the force, and the purple scales on his forehead trembling uncontrollably. "He struck later but arrived first! He clearly attacked later, so how come the gatekeeper didn't even have a chance to block?!"
A startling light flashed in the Southern Fox Kingdom's cloudy eyes, and his voice trembled with disbelief: "This is insight, insight into every ounce of the opponent's power, the extent to which it can be achieved. Furthermore, Xu Qing's power is inherently stronger than that of the guardian of the 13th floor, so striking his weakness is a sure way to kill him in one blow."
"See through it? How could you possibly calculate it so precisely?"
The Nine Swords Venerable stared intently at the replay on the screen, his hands clenched so tightly that his knuckles turned white, his voice filled with confusion.
"The ninth level of the Divine Weapon requires extreme mental control; even an ordinary immortal could barely manage to activate it. How could a cosmic-level being have the spare capacity to calculate his opponent's sword path, power, and even the rhythm of the laws at work?"
"To control the ninth level of the Divine Weapon and perform such precise calculations, just how strong is his mental power?"
"Even a Marquis-level Immortal with the power of the Nine Heavens Evolution could only manage to control and predict simultaneously at best, yet he calculated even his opponent's subconscious reactions!"
Inside the light screen, Xu Qing gently shook the sparks off his sword. The bright golden sword turned into tiny particles of light and retracted behind him, heading towards the passage to the fourteenth floor.
Outside the light screen, hundreds of cosmic venerables finally calmed down, but the calmer they became, the more alarmed they felt.
Xu Qing's ability to instantly kill his opponent wasn't due to overwhelming strength, but rather his ability to see through the transmission of every bit of power and every thought his opponent might have.
It's like predicting the future.
