Chapter 392 The Number One Person Below the Peak

Wang Shuwen was impaled on the ground, his heart pierced through. He vomited blood and struggled a few times before stopping.

Instant kill?

This is the Heart Refining Realm of Martial Combat Faction; under these circumstances, they would undoubtedly maintain a considerable level of internal energy, and would be instantly killed without any power to resist?

Everyone turned around in surprise and saw a tall, thin Old Man with graying temples and a refined demeanor standing on a pile of ruins.

Upon seeing this person, Grandma Li lit up with surprise. "Chu Yunwei?!"

"Who is that?" Zhu Xixi, still a student, knew very little about the Polluter.

However, looking at the others, including official figures like Xu Li and Ma Lei, they all looked puzzled. Clearly, this was not a well-known Polluter.

"He was one of the top explorers back then, even hailed as the Number One Person Below the Peak ..." Li Xiuzhen explained, "But more than twenty years ago, he disappeared during a [Martial World] mission. At the time, this aroused great vigilance in the Yuan Cultivation Society, who were all worried that if he became Polluter, he would pose a huge threat to the [Martial World] and the Hundred Rivers Sect. However, many years have passed, and no one has found Chu Yunwei's whereabouts. The Yuan Cultivation Society all believed that he had died, but unexpectedly..."

The Number One Person Below the Peak more than 20 years ago... Now, barring any unforeseen circumstances, he should have become the true Peak!

However, as a projection, Chu Yunwei would not answer them. He raised his hand, and two red spears materialized in each hand, which he then shot at the group!

Grandma Li stepped forward, and with a wave of her hand, three enormous shields materialized. With a few clangs, the spear pierced through the first two shields and finally embedded itself in the last one.

"Fight in close combat!" Grandma Li shouted. "He's a master of both Creation Faction and Manipulation School; close combat is his weakness!"

Ma Lei charged forward, her body wreathed in flames. Upon seeing this, Chu Yunwei flicked his palms, conjuring a set of gleaming silver Knight Armor out of thin air in front of him. Although it was empty inside, it was powered by Psychic Power, and he wielded a longsword to meet Ma Lei!

Ma Lei flicked her palms, sending two large fireballs hurtling towards him. But with a deafening roar, the Knight Armor burst forth with raging flames, and his longsword pierced straight for Ma Lei's throat!

Ma Lei's eyes narrowed, and she twisted her body to barely dodge the attack. On the other side, Xu Li's Water Arrow out, but it still had no effect on the armor!

"Vital Energy Shielding Alloy?" Everyone immediately realized the composition of this thing, and at the same time, they were even more shocked by Chu Yunwei's ability!

While the Creation Faction's abilities are remarkable, they cannot simulate any object indefinitely. Relatively speaking, the more common the material and the simpler the structure, the easier it is to simulate. With the right techniques, most common metals, plastics, and stones can be created by the Creation Faction.

However, some high-tech materials, or even those with supernatural properties, are difficult to simulate. The Vital Energy Shielding Alloy, a special material that can suppress Yuanqi, has naturally been the subject of much research and attempts to simulate. However, countless Creation Faction masters have failed. After all, using Yuanqi to simulate a material that suppresses Yuanqi seems logically contradictory, and many have even asserted that it is an impossible concept!

But unexpectedly, this seemingly impossible technology has actually seen successful cases here!

"But how can armor made of Vital Energy Shielding Alloy be controlled by Control Technique?" Zhu Xixi discovered the blind spot.

"He doesn't need to control the armor," Li Xiuzhen explained. "The outer layer of armor is made of Shielding Alloy, and there should be an inner lining made of ordinary materials. He only needs to control those to drive the armor to move!"

As she spoke, she clasped her hands together and channeled her energy, and a huge Mechanical Golem out of thin air, rushing forward to block the Knight Armor!

As fellow Creation Faction, Li Xiuzhen understood Chu Yunwei's tactics best. Although his mastery of Manipulation School was inferior to Chu Yunwei's, he relied on his powerful creativity to simulate a complete mechanical structure. Combined with his Manipulation School abilities, he made the golem's movement capabilities just as good as the armor!

While Grandma Li's golem held back the Knight Armor, the others continued to charge towards Chu Yunwei's true form. Chu Yunwei flicked his hands, and several more sets of Knight Armor appeared, facing the charging crowd.

This thing is practically designed to counter Cultivators; Cultivators abilities are almost entirely ineffective. Forced into a corner, they can only pull out their weapons and transform into physical warriors. But the problem is that Chu Yunwei's Control Technique are also exceptionally powerful. Under his manipulation, the Knight Armor possess incredible strength, each one a top-tier warrior!

In response, Grandma Li created even more golems, which single-handedly held off these Knight Armor!

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Ma Lei swiftly rushed in front of Chu Yunwei, unleashing a punch with her fists wreathed in flames!

Boom!

Chu Yunwei was instantly engulfed by the flames, but then a Knight Lance pierced out from the flames, fast and fierce, striking Ma Lei's thigh!

Ma Lei cried out in pain and hurriedly stepped back to pull out the gun tip. Blood spurted out, clearly indicating that the gun had pierced her femoral artery!

With a determined effort, Ma Lei grabbed the wound, unleashing a burst of flame that scorched the wound and stopped the bleeding.

Looking up again, a Knight Armor emerged from the flames. Unlike the others, this one had its helmet open, revealing Chu Yunwei's face.

Since he could create the armor, he could naturally wear it. The outer armor, made of Shielding Alloy, was exceptionally sturdy and could defend against elemental attacks. The inner lining, under his Control Technique, could provide additional assistance. It could be said that Chu Yunwei, wearing the armor, gained close combat capabilities that rivaled those of top-tier Martial Combat Faction!

At that moment, another ear-piercing metallic snapping sound came from behind. Ma Lei turned around and saw that a Metal Golem had its weapon broken in the clash, and then a sword pierced through its power core!

Although the Mechanical Golem also a creation of elemental energy, it possesses a certain degree of stability after successful simulation, preventing it from collapsing at the first touch of Vital Energy Shielding Alloy Vital Energy Shielding Alloy.

Faced with this predicament, Li Xiuzhen channeled her inner energy, creating even more demonic golems to reinforce the old woman. However, judging from the sweat on the old woman's forehead, it was clear that her energy was being depleted...

At this moment, Chu Yunwei brandished his spear and charged at Ma Lei again. Ma Lei hurriedly dodged, but the force aggravated her wound, making her movement a moment too slow!

Just as the spear was about to strike, a sudden surge of water pushed her aside, allowing her to narrowly avoid the attack!

It's Xu Li!

Seeing that Ma Lei was safe, Xu Li had just breathed a sigh of relief when she suddenly heard Wang Yifan's warning, "Xu Li, get out of the way!"

Xu Li was slightly stunned. Before she could react, she suddenly felt a chill down her spine, and then a fist wearing Iron Gloves pierced through her chest!

Xu Li looked down in disbelief at the bloodied fist on her chest. Then, the metal Hand Armor on the fist suddenly vanished, and a ball of flame burst from the hand, instantly turning Xu Li into a charred corpse...

As Xu Li's body fell to the ground, the attacker behind her was finally revealed.

A lithe figure, neat short hair, and fiery fists.

It was none other than Ma Lei!
