Chapter 266: Nearing Ultimate Evolution
🕑 Added 2024-10-23 07:06:45 +0000 UTCHe coughed up blood!
Tang Zhentian couldn’t believe it—merely from the collision of their weapons, the force had caused him to cough up blood!
As he looked ahead, his eyes were filled with shock.
This was the first time something like this had happened to him!
“Damn you, Tang Zhentian,” Zhang Yuanji's expression darkened.
In that instant, he had been forced to burn a large amount of his vital blood to gain his current strength.
Otherwise, he felt he would have already been killed by Tang Zhentian.
"It seems you've been holding back some of your strength," Tang Zhentian wiped the blood from his lips and sneered.
Stretching out his left hand, a tremendous amount of energy began to swirl around him.
This energy gathered into the palm of his hand, and soon, a massive surge of power erupted.
It took the form of a fearsome ball of lightning, surging forward!
Another powerful lightning energy ball!
“You only managed to surprise me before, but now, I won’t fear your energy!”
Zhang Yuanji saw the terrifying speed at which the lightning ball was hurtling toward him, but he merely chuckled.
With a swift motion, he slashed at the incoming energy ball with Boundless!
Whoosh—
The energy ball was split cleanly in two by the sword!
The terrifying energy ball dissipated instantly.
Impossible!
Tang Zhentian’s eyes widened in disbelief.
His lightning energy—cleaved in half by a single sword!
He had never seen anything so strange.
He could hardly believe a weapon existed that could cut through elemental energy!
【Demon's Claw】!!!
In that same moment, Zhang Yuanji swung Boundless once more, unleashing a terrifying crescent-shaped energy slash that tore through the sky.
A massive demonic claw emerged from the tear in the sky, descending upon Tang Zhentian!
Boom—
The ground shook violently as the claw struck down.
Tang Zhentian barely managed to dodge in time.
"What is this!?"
Tang Zhentian looked up in shock at the demonic claw stretching out of the rift in the sky.
Was this creature from another world?
Could it be that this man had summoned it?
Tang Zhentian's face grew grim.
The bizarre aura of danger pervaded the air, making him feel increasingly uneasy.
"What... what is that thing!?"
Meanwhile, the other warriors standing nearby were dumbfounded as they gazed at the demonic claw.
The Martial Gods were frozen in place, unable to comprehend what they were seeing.
The claw continued its relentless assault on Tang Zhentian.
As he dodged, he attempted to strike back at the claw, only to find that his attacks had no effect—it was invulnerable!
Escape!
There was no other option.
“Where do you think you're going!?”
At that moment, Zhang Yuanji charged after him, holding Boundless high!
Whoosh—
He slashed toward Tang Zhentian as the latter dodged the demonic claw.
Clang!
Tang Zhentian reacted just in time, using his weapon to block the blow.
As their weapons clashed, an overwhelming burst of sword energy erupted from Boundless.
The powerful energy sent searing pain through Tang Zhentian’s hand, piercing his palm and causing blood to flow.
Just as Zhang Yuanji prepared to launch another attack, Tang Zhentian’s eyes changed color.
Zhang Yuanji immediately felt that strange sensation again—his body froze, unable to move!
Damn that eye technique!
Zhang Yuanji’s face twisted with frustration.
But just as Tang Zhentian prepared to strike, the demonic claw descended once more from the sky.
Tang Zhentian, sensing the danger, had no choice but to dodge again.
He knew that if he were hit by the demonic claw, his body would likely be crushed to pieces.
As Tang Zhentian dodged, Zhang Yuanji regained control of his body.
“I can’t look directly into his eyes,” Zhang Yuanji muttered to himself.
But in a close-range fight, he couldn’t afford to close his eyes.
He needed to observe Tang Zhentian’s movements to react effectively.
"It seems I have no choice but to use this skill."
With that thought, Zhang Yuanji channeled a large amount of energy into Boundless.
【Shrouding Heaven and Earth】!!!
Using this powerful skill consumed a tremendous amount of energy.
But at this point, it was the only way to kill Tang Zhentian.
Zhang Yuanji was certain that once he activated this skill, Tang Zhentian would have no chance of survival.
Dark energy surged out from Boundless, rapidly spreading into the sky.
In an instant, the entire sky was covered in blackness, with not a sliver of light remaining.
The world seemed to have plunged into absolute darkness.
The demonic claw vanished as its time ended, but Tang Zhentian was now utterly horrified.
His vision was nearly useless in the pitch-black surroundings.
Whoosh—
Zhang Yuanji, however, had already launched his next attack!
Though the others couldn’t see, he could see clearly.
His perception and reflexes were greatly enhanced in this state.
Clang!
Tang Zhentian, though slower, managed to block the first strike.
But Zhang Yuanji’s swordsmanship was just beginning.
Now, his technique grew even more refined!
Clang, clang, clang—
Tang Zhentian could do nothing but desperately parry Zhang Yuanji's relentless assault.
“Ah!!!”
In the next instant, a scream of agony pierced the air as Zhang Yuanji severed Tang Zhentian’s right arm!
In the suffocating darkness, even Tang Zhentian’s exceptional senses were unable to match their usual sharpness.
The dark energy in the air was also subtly hindering his body, slowing his reactions significantly.
Now armless, Tang Zhentian staggered backward.
In this pitch-black world, his prized eye technique was rendered completely useless.
"It's happening... I'm about to evolve!"
