68: Boiling Point! The crawlers of the Vast Universe Civilization deserve to die!
That figure's speed was incredibly fast.
In an instant, it brushed past him.
"You..."
Jiang Feixuan didn't have time to react.
Then he heard what sounded like an extremely terrifying battle from behind. Boundless thunder surged and billowed. The sky was already dim, yet it was illuminated with unprecedented brightness by the surging thunder!
What happened?
The spear-carrying youth who had walked towards him.
Had brushed past him.
And patted him on the shoulder.
Who was he?
But just then.
Thump.
The sound of a heavy object falling to the ground rang out, causing his heart to twitch. He turned around abruptly and saw a tall, straight back with black hair fluttering. His spine was like a Great Dragon winding into the sky.
What was most hair-raising was...
That person was currently holding a round, rolling object in his hand.
Blood dripped from that object onto the dark, cold earth.
What had just fallen to the ground was... a corpse still retaining its warmth, dripping with blood. A blood-stained long spear was plunged into its chest. The spear was of extraordinary quality, silver-bright and sharp. The Second Generation Star River Body that had been hunting him earlier had now fallen to the ground, turned into a headless corpse.
Hiss!
All of this had just happened.
In the blink of an eye.
That Second Generation Star River Body, who had slaughtered them like ants.
Was dead?
In the hands of that mysterious Martial Arts Examinee was its head. The surroundings were filled with terrifying marks. In that instant just now, he had brushed past this Martial Arts Examinee, and then some kind of horrifying battle had occurred here.
And the result was that this Second Generation Star River Body had been insta-killed!
Jiang Feixuan was shocked.
Meanwhile, in the livestream room.
After a brief silence.
Everyone exploded!
From the perspective of the livestream, they could only vaguely see a figure brushing past Jiang Feixuan. Then, the livestream captured brilliant light constantly flashing.
In another blink of an eye.
They saw the youth holding the Star River Body's head, and the long spear originally carried on his back was now pinned to the ground!
The livestream room immediately boiled over!
"Holy crap! This Young Man!"
"Ever since the Second Generation Star River Bodies appeared, they've been invincible, crushing everything. Our Xia Country's Martial Arts Examinees aren't even in the same league. Aside from Ye Qingxuan in the Imperial Capital, who held a Star River Body's head that day to declare total war against the Haoyu Civilization, our Xia Country's Martial Arts Examinees have always won by numbers!"
"It's a pity the livestream didn't capture what exactly happened just now!"
"It was an insta-kill!"
"This person's strength is extremely high! Could he be in the top ten or even the top three of the war zone? But why is he so unfamiliar? I don't think I've ever seen him! Damn! Can this livestream's quality be a bit clearer? I can't see his face at all!"
Meanwhile, inside the Purple Profound Pavilion.
The old man was stunned.
Then, a look of wild joy suddenly appeared on his face. Over the past few days, besides being overwhelmed by the emergence of the Star River Bodies, his heart had been filled with guilt!
It was him.
Although there was only a blurry back.
With his seasoned and sharp eyes, it wasn't difficult to see that the light flickering in the livestream just now was violent thunder!
Among the Martial Arts Examinees.
Very few used spears to begin with.
So, the identity of this mysterious Martial Arts Examinee was obvious—it was Gu Chen, whose Martial Arts Examination score hadn't changed for six days!
He was also the Thunder Attribute Gene user they had been following closely!
"Where has he been these past few days? He's become even stronger."
Strength capable of insta-killing a Second Generation Star River Body.
"Pavilion Master, do you know his identity?" At this time, many powerful Martial Artists had gathered around, all of whom were high-ranking members of the War Preparation Department. As they looked at the Young Man's back, their eyes were filled with amazement.
The old man smiled without saying a word.
But anyone could see.
A relaxed smile was now spreading across the old man's face.
It seemed that with this Young Man's appearance.
The problem of the Star River Bodies.
Could naturally be easily resolved.
Meanwhile, Jiang Feixuan was still standing in place, at a loss.
"What are Star River Bodies? Can you tell me about them?" Gu Chen was currently examining the corpse of the Star River Body, touching its metallic skeleton with his hand. It was actually interspersed within the flesh, like armor sewn into the body. Gu Chen touched it; its hardness was roughly at the Star-level.
"Star River Bodies are man-made Geniuses, a Genius army created by the Haoyu Civilization in its attempt to conquer the Universe. There aren't many left now, but they are very powerful. After all, they are technological products of a high-level civilization. Their talent, strength, and combat techniques far exceed those of our Xia Country's... Geniuses. Yesterday, Goddess Ye of the Imperial Capital killed a Star River Body and used its head to formally declare war on the Haoyu Civilization. Now, all the Martial Arts Examinees in Xia Country are actively fighting against the Haoyu Civilization's Star River Bodies." Jiang Feixuan had cold sweat on his forehead.
Because he saw that mysterious Martial Arts Examinee actually reach out and forcibly crush the metal skeleton until it deformed.
This was Star-level hardness!
This person's Physical Body.
Was terrifying!
"Thank you, brother, for saving my life. There are two Star River Bodies here in total. I beg you to save our companions."
Gu Chen now knew the situation outside. The man-made Geniuses of a high-level civilization were mass-slaughtering Xia Country's Martial Arts Examinees, and the two sides had officially declared war. Xia Country's martial path had only just begun, so they were naturally subjected to extremely unfair slaughter. He had just seen a look of disdainful contempt in the eyes of that Second Generation Star River Body, as if it were looking at an ant.
A surge of anger rose in Gu Chen's heart.
"Take me there."
"Alright!" Jiang Feixuan showed an excited expression.
With this terrifying Martial Arts Examinee present.
That Star River Body definitely wouldn't be able to escape either!
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!
At this moment.
That one-sided hunt was still ongoing!
Along the way, many Martial Artists had lent a hand, but they were no match for the Second Generation Star River Body at all. Its Moves were bold and powerful, and its Qi and blood volume was already infinitely close to the Third Limit Break!
It should have already reached the Peak state of the second limit break.
boom!
It threw a punch.
A Martial Arts Examinee who had tried to cover everyone's retreat was instantly sent flying like a cannonball. His body crashed onto the ground, and spiderweb-like cracks appeared around him. He kept spitting blood, his eyes full of fear, but he was still shouting.
"Get lost!"
"The Haoyu Civilization has already been destroyed! You are just the dust of history! There are infinite possibilities in the starry sky! Countless flowers are blooming, and these brilliant blooms might be Xia Country, but they will definitely not be Haoyu anymore!"
"You're finished!"
"It's already over!"
He roared!
However, this only brought killing intent to the eyes of the Second Generation Star River Body.
"You should die, vermin." The cold voice announced this person's death, still carrying the arrogance of a high-level civilization.
But suddenly, the person's pupils constricted!
Swish!
Boom!
The place suddenly exploded. Endless thunder turned into translucent divine whips that lashed out wildly in all directions. The ground shattered, and a phantom shot over, instantly plunging into the earth, sending dust flying!
When the dust settled.
A long spear was seen planted where the Second Generation Star River Body had been standing.
At the same time, a faint voice came from the distance.
"Indeed, it's time to die, vermin of the Haoyu Civilization."
