Eternal Saber
Chapter 669 - 89: A Hammer Spitting Blood
"Huh?"
Bashish Red Peak frowned and looked up.
Even the Female Barbarian Master, who was dancing and casting spells to summon the gods, was thrown off rhythm by this sudden shout.
"What is it that you’ve summoned?"
Bashish Red Peak asked.
The Female Barbarian Master shook her head, hesitantly saying, "It shouldn’t be..."
The next moment, a mass of gold light suddenly tore through the dark clouds, appearing above the altar, diving down—it was actually a golden eagle, over half a person’s height!
"Why does this eagle look somewhat familiar?"
Even with a hat covering his bald head, Bashish Red Peak still felt a chill on his scalp.
"Bashish, prepare to meet your fate!"
A figure suddenly leaped down from the golden eagle, the voice booming like a great bell, the momentum as fierce as a tiger!
"It’s him!"
Bashish Red Peak’s expression changed.
Under the gaze of countless eyes, a figure broke through the clouds, with Qi and blood rising, enveloped in gold light, descending from the sky, with black hair flying wildly, holding a saber with both hands, unstoppable!
"This is..."
Li Junqing looked incredulously at the figure drawing closer in mid-air, her heart shaken.
She actually saw that person again.
She had once doubted whether this was her own hallucination.
"Is it him?"
Ling Guang glanced, first finding the person familiar, then quickly remembering who it was.
A few years ago, rising from a small town on the border of Pingzhou, with one person and one blade, he almost turned the entire Qian Dynasty’s imperial court upside down!
The relationship between Eldest Princess Qingmu and this person was also extraordinary.
This person was once forced into a chase, leaping into the East Sea, surviving against all odds.
This year, she had heard some news about this person from her subordinates.
It is said that this person was also restless in Nanxia, involved in the conflicts of the Nanxia court and Jianghu, and later disappeared without a trace.
Unexpectedly, he appeared here today.
Moreover, his cultivation...
Ling Guang was shocked.
In just over two years of absence, this person had already cultivated to the Third Grade Meridian Passage Realm!
"Brother Chen is here!"
Li Zhongmou and Li Shuhu were overjoyed.
Li Boxiong still looked grave, saying, "So, it is Brother Chen Tang. If it is just him alone, I fear..."
Li Shuhu said, "Brother, Brother Chen Tang is no longer the person he was before; he can even contend with a Grandmaster for several rounds."
Before he finished speaking, a change occurred on the altar.
Bashish Red Peak, seeing Chen Tang’s fierce momentum, dared not be careless and directly tossed Ling Guang and Li Junqing towards the direction of the Mad Lion Army formation, picking up the golden hammer beside him in an instant.
During his second encounter on Celestial Mountain with Chen Tang, he knew this person’s strength was great, even surpassing his own.
Now, Chen Tang descended from the sky, in such a momentum-gathering strike, it would certainly be even more powerful and difficult to withstand.
By throwing the two women in different directions, he aimed to split Chen Tang’s attention in rescue.
Thus resolved Chen Tang’s offensive.
"Save those two!"
Chen Tang merely uttered this to Little Golden Roc, continuing his unstoppable descent.
In an instant, he reached above Bashish Red Peak’s head; his body’s Qi and blood surged like waves, inner Qi flooding into both hands, infusing them into the blade.
With a leap, he struck mid-air!
With his Divine Soul damaged, he couldn’t use the Divine Light Slash.
This slash was purely a burst of power, devoid of any intricate moves.
Gathering momentum, using the force of descent, wielding from mid-air, combining Qi and blood, inner Qi, Vajra Indestructible Body, Vast Sea Force, several layers of power stacked together.
Bashish Red Peak had barely lifted the golden hammer when the long saber cleaved down on him.
Boom!
The blade clashed with the golden hammer, not producing the clear clang of metal, instead resounding with a thunderous crash.
The immense force cut a notch into the golden hammer.
The blade itself couldn’t withstand this massive power, shattering instantly into pieces!
After all, it was just an ordinary long sword, and in a direct clash with a massive weapon like the golden hammer, it gained no advantage.
But Chen Tang’s momentum-driven strike was incredibly powerful.
Bashish Red Peak’s whole body shook, the pain surged in his palm, he couldn’t hold his weapon, and the golden hammer flew out of his hand!
Chen Tang’s long sword shattered, left with bare fists, witnessed the scene, brightening his eyes and reached out to grab from a distance.
As Yin Qi circulated within, an absorbing force suddenly erupted from his palm, capturing the golden hammer into his hand from the air!
With a hammer in his hand.
"Take a swing from me too!"
Chen Tang roared, employing the Lion’s Roar technique, his eyes gleaming with a hint of gold, simultaneously activating ’Vajra’s Wrathful Gaze’.
Sound Strike and Pupil Technique were released simultaneously, immediately causing Bashish Red Peak to lose focus, his courage fleeing.
Seeing Chen Tang swinging the hammer his way, with nowhere to retreat, he could only raise another golden hammer to barely block.
Boom!
The dual hammers collided.
This time, both wielded the same weapon.
The terrifying recoil force surged into both their bodies.
Chen Tang’s body shook.
His Qi and blood buffered, Yin and Yang Qi surged, combined with Vajra Indestructible Body, leaving nearly no effect.
Bashish Red Peak lost the initiative, exposing a flaw, forced into an encounter, unable to withstand.
A hammer smashes down, instantly triggering his unhealed internal injuries; Bashish Red Peak felt intense chest pain, spitting a mouthful of blood, releasing the other golden hammer from his grasp.
Thunderous crash!
This earth-shattering force directly collapsed the entire altar, breaking countless logs into fragments, dust flying everywhere, and Bashish Red Peak took this chance to quickly fall, shouting, "Chieftain, save me!"
"Huh?"
On the city wall, Mad Lion Tuer was just getting excited in the fight when he heard cries for help behind him, swiftly turning to look.
He saw Bashish Red Peak being smashed off the altar, battered and bloodied.
What’s going on?
He had noticed the young man who just appeared, but didn’t take him seriously at all.
A young man around twenty, how capable could he be?
Yet, in an instant, this person managed to defeat Bashish?
Mad Lion Tuer glanced at the remaining few warriors on the city wall, yet turned and leaped down, grabbing the mountain-opening giant axe embedded in the wall, striding towards the battlefield.
The defenders of Liangzhou City were already terrified of him.
As long as he gave the command, the army would charge en masse, breaching the city at any time.
First, deal with this young man and save Bashish Red Peak.
If Liangzhou City fell at the cost of a Grandmaster-level warrior, it would be a loss for the Mad Lion Tribe.
The defenders of Liangzhou City opened their eyes wide in disbelief.
Was this the light of dawn, the mighty reinforcement the Commander spoke of?
Such immense power!
Merely two moves, and a Grandmaster was forced to spit blood and knocked from the altar!
Could it be, could Liangzhou City truly hold?
Could one man’s strength change the entire situation?
Li Yan gradually lowered his long sword, wiping away the tears on his face carelessly, looking around, searching for something.
If Feng Xu were to arrive, this battle would have hope!
Chen Tang’s power is indeed terrifying, but if it’s just him alone, facing two Grandmasters...
On the battlefield.
Li Boxiong and the others were dumbfounded, faces filled with shock.
Even Changsun Ming and Li Shuhu, who had witnessed Chen Tang and Bashish Red Peak’s battle at Wusun Celestial Pass, were taken aback.
How did he become even mightier just after several days?
Li Boxiong couldn’t help but say, "Third brother, is this what you meant by being able to exchange a few rounds with a Grandmaster? That Bashish wasn’t an opponent at all!"
