Zhou Chongshan's breakthrough was undoubtedly of tremendous significance to Great Zhou, while it also brought pressure upon Xie Liancheng.
It had to be known that before this, when it came to advancing in martial cultivation, he had always been the unrivaled frontrunner within Great Zhou.
But after suffering that grievous injury, the long period of recuperation first caused his strength to regress. Then, because of his PTSD symptoms, he became completely trapped in a bottleneck and could no longer break through.
In some wuxia novels, or even cultivation novels, the symptoms of PTSD were, in plain terms, inner demons!
Xie Liancheng had never been able to break through his own inner demon, leaving him stuck at his bottleneck. He had originally considered using his battle against the Slaughter Clan to see whether he could seek a chance at a breakthrough amid a life-and-death struggle.
Yet he had never expected the Slaughter Great King to remain nowhere in sight throughout the entire battle, leaving him no such opportunity at all.
Later, Great Zhou merely had to transport Demolition Bombs to Copper Furnace Fortress's dwarves to help them successfully withstand the Slaughter Clan's offensive. They did not even need to personally go to the front lines.
And now, even Zhou Chongshan had walked ahead of him. This delivered an even greater shock to him.
This also made Xie Liancheng resolve himself to initiate this unrestricted slaughter against Zhou Chongshan!
The attack of the Three-Pointed, Two-Edged Halberd was easily blocked by the True Qi Shield. At the same time, Zhou Chongshan, holding twin blades, swiftly closed the distance.
The existence of the True Qi Shield allowed Zhou Chongshan to suitably abandon some of his defense and devote more of his energy to offense. This wave of attacks was clearly intentional.
"Watch out!"
