Dai Mubai was shaken into spitting blood midair, and a trace of blood flowed from the corner of Zhao Wuji's mouth.
Zhu Zhuqing, Xiao Wu, and Ma Hongjun were all blasted away. Zhang Tianyu naturally had no intention of caring about Fat Ma. With a wave of his hand, Huangquan flew back. He stepped onto Huangquan and streaked through the air, steadily catching Zhu Zhuqing and Xiao Wu.
It was still that wonderful sensation—round, soft, resilient, and fragrant.
But Zhang Tianyu had no mood to enjoy it right now.
The Titan Giant Ape really was ridiculously powerful!
Although the system had concealed his level and he had suppressed his own strength, the fact that Huangquan had practically failed to break the Titan Giant Ape's defense still caught him off guard!
Zhang Tianyu's level might not have been high, but Huangquan was a [Strongest]-grade Martial Soul!
Yet it had actually failed to break this huge monkey's defense?
The Titan Giant Ape was enraged. After blasting everyone away, it let out a roar, then leaped up with astonishing speed and came crashing down toward them like Mount Tai pressing down!
Zhao Wuji's body was still in the air. He had been blasted diagonally upward, and even if he wanted to rescue them, it was already too late.
On the ground, everyone watched the Titan Giant Ape's enormous shadow descend upon them. In that instant, every one of their minds went blank!
Oscar and Ning Rongrong, who stood outside the Titan Giant Ape's landing range, were pale with terror!
It was over!
A critical moment of life and death!
"Fourth Soul Skill! In the Name of the Sword!"
A sharp shout exploded beside everyone's ears, and in an instant, every face filled with utter shock!
Beyond Zhang Tianyu's three Soul Rings, a fourth Soul Ring suddenly lit up!
The fourth one was black!
And in that instant, the first three Soul Rings, which had originally been yellow, purple, and purple, all turned black!
Everyone was dumbstruck!
Zhang Tianyu was actually already a Soul Ancestor!
And his four Soul Rings... were all Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Rings!
How terrifying!
No one could believe it!
Huangquan's flying speed instantly increased by 40%!
At the same time, seven slightly illusory swords identical to Huangquan appeared around Zhang Tianyu!
"Go!" Zhang Tianyu shouted, and the seven swords shot toward different directions like lightning.
Zhang Tianyu rapidly retreated while holding Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing in his arms. Four of the other seven swords flew toward the Titan Giant Ape, slowing its descent in midair. Though they only bought a few short seconds, that was completely enough!
The other three flew toward Dai Mubai, Ma Hongjun, and Tang San respectively, carrying them out of the Titan Giant Ape's attack range with lightning speed!
Zhang Tianyu, with Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing in his arms, also instantly escaped the danger zone—
Boom!
The Titan Giant Ape smashed into the ground, but did not crush a single person.
The Titan Giant Ape was a little confused. It got up and scratched its enormous head.
That Mount Tai crushing attack had been earth-shaking and overwhelming.
Its killing intent had soared to the heavens, fierce as a tiger, yet it somehow went 0-5?
It had not crushed anyone?
Zhao Wuji landed. Everyone had moved to a safe area, and Zhang Tianyu set Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing down before turning to fly toward the Titan Giant Ape.
"Tianyu!" Xiao Wu was utterly panicked.
She knew Zhang Tianyu was powerful, but at this stage, he definitely could not be a match for the Titan Giant Ape!
Going up against it was just courting death!
Zhang Tianyu ignored her. He abruptly raised his right hand, and the seven swords whistled back, hovering around him like the most loyal guards. Their tips pointed outward as they slowly rotated around his body.
The Soul Skill [In the Name of the Sword] did not provide many attribute boosts, because its true purpose was not to enhance those negligible attributes.
The true focus of this Soul Skill was these seven swords.
Although each one only possessed 70% of Huangquan's power, every Soul Skill effect Huangquan could trigger could also be triggered by these seven swords!
For example, with the First Soul Skill Flame Judgment, Huangquan could launch seven tracking fireballs in rapid succession. These seven swords could likewise launch seven fireballs each.
With eight swords in total, it could trigger fifty-six fireballs at once!
Sword qi, Flying Sword, and Thunder Sword worked on the same principle!
Titan Giant Ape, huh? King of the Forest, huh? Tough enough to take a beating, huh?
Fine. Today, I'll use you to test just how strong my attack power really is when I stop suppressing my strength!
The first three Soul Rings lit up at the same time.
In an instant, the seven swords and Huangquan itself became eight streaks of black lightning, spinning rapidly around Zhang Tianyu with sonic booms that tore through the air!
Everyone stared at the scene in complete shock. Everything before them had already surpassed their imagination!
A twelve-year-old Soul Ancestor!
All four Soul Rings were Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Rings!
Zhang Tianyu, Zhang Tianyu... just how many secrets were you hiding?
"Go!"
With a furious shout from above, everyone snapped to attention and looked up. Sword qi and black fireballs filled the sky, sweeping toward the Titan Giant Ape like a raging storm!
The sight was simply spectacular!
It was like a meteor shower seen only once in a century!
Zhao Wuji finally landed. Looking up at the breathtaking sight, he swallowed hard.
This kid was simply terrifying!
Although he had used this kind of saturation attack tactic during the entrance test, the number of attacks then had been nowhere near this great.
If there had been this many back then, Zhao Wuji would definitely have lost!
Seeing this, the Titan Giant Ape pounded its chest with both fists and let out a long roar toward the sky. Another wave of black energy burst forth from its enormous body.
The sword qi and fireballs were struck by the black energy wave and immediately stalled in midair. Some of the foremost fireballs were directly extinguished, while much of the leading sword qi was scattered.
Zhang Tianyu frowned. This fellow really was formidable, worthy of being a powerhouse with the bloodline of an ancient ferocious beast!
But it did not matter. Their momentum had merely been curbed a little. The fireballs and sword qi that followed were still fierce!
Seeing this, even the Titan Giant Ape was a little stunned.
This human brat had some skill!
This Soul Skill was actually so tenacious?
Watching the fireballs and sword qi streaking toward it across the sky, the Titan Giant Ape roared again. A golden light immediately shone across its entire body.
Clang, clang, clang—
The sword qi struck its body, producing the sharp sound of clashing metal, but still failed to break through its defense.
However, Limitless Flying Sword and Flame Judgment did not disappoint. They successfully broke through its defense!
All eight Huangquans pierced straight through the golden barrier, then surged onward. After penetrating the golden defensive layer, they pierced through its skin and buried themselves deep in its body!
At the same time, the black fireballs rapidly corroded the golden defensive layer upon contact. They then touched its skin and instantly melted into it, successfully burning its soul and making it howl in agony.
Strange, wasn't it?
The Third Soul Skill could not break the Titan Giant Ape's defense, yet the First and Second Soul Skills could.
Seeing this, everyone was once again shocked speechless!
They had just gained a rough understanding of the Titan Giant Ape's defensive power, yet they never expected Zhang Tianyu to be able to break through it!
Xiao Wu could not believe it!
Zhang Tianyu was only a Soul Ancestor!
How could a Soul Ancestor possibly break Er Ming's defense?!
The Titan Giant Ape's eyes were also filled with disbelief, but in the next second, fear appeared in its gaze.
Deep fear!
After Huangquan pierced into its body, it could clearly feel its life force draining away!
Although the rate of loss was not fast, and this tiny amount of lost life force was nothing compared to its immensely long lifespan, the sensation of personally feeling life leave its body filled it, a creature that had never known a natural enemy, with deep terror from the depths of its soul!
What kind of Martial Soul was this?!
Could this be the weapon of the God of Death from hell?!
Zhang Tianyu stood proudly in the air, his long hair and robes fluttering in the wind.
Ghostly flames flickered in his eyes, and deathly energy radiated around him.
Behind him, a phantom Tombstone stood suspended in the void.
[First Spirit: Yellow Springs] Origin: ??? Traits: Immune to killing intent suppression and death energy corrosion; attacks carry yin spirit death energy, corroding the target's life force; Power: Strongest (Earth) Overall Evaluation: Second Under Heaven
"Roar!"
The Titan Giant Ape let out a terrified roar!
This human could not be allowed to live!
He was still weak right now. If he were allowed to grow, then one day, the entire continent—whether humans or Soul Beasts—would likely submit beneath his terrifying might!
Kill!
The Titan Giant Ape had finally developed killing intent. It charged toward Zhang Tianyu, its enormous palm whipping up a howling gale as it grabbed at him!
Zhang Tianyu could actually have dodged, but there was no need to, because Xiao Wu had rushed over.
Whoosh!
Xiao Wu appeared in front of Zhang Tianyu, spreading her arms and shielding him behind her.
Everyone was stunned by the sight!
Yet even more surprising was that Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing rushed over immediately afterward!
Three girls!
No one had expected these three girls to be so brave that they were willing to use their slender, frail bodies to protect Zhang Tianyu!
Oscar: ...
Dai Mulv: ...
The Titan Giant Ape's hand stopped in midair.
Damn it!
Sister Xiao Wu was standing in front of this guy, so she must care deeply about him.
Since she cared about him, I should not kill him. But seeing three girls shielding this guy in front of me, I really want to kill him!
Don't you know I'm single?!
