149: Thunder Blade

“Today is destined for death?”

“Hmph, you certainly have foresight.”

Hals’s lips curled into a cold sneer.

His icy eyes fixed on You Zhong, as if looking at a dying man.

The next second.

A sharp whooshing sound pierced the air.

Whoosh!

You Zhong, who had been standing still on the Surface, shot up like a gust of wind.

A star plate appeared above his head, and Three Secret Treasures glowed with a silver light.

The two short blades in his hands seemed to come alive, trembling slightly.

Around the blades, dazzling lightning crackled.

You Zhong’s face was grim, his hands gripping the two lightning-flashing short blades, and his entire body transformed into a fierce dark shadow.

He flew towards Hals with lightning speed.

The two long blades cut two cold arcs through the air, aiming directly at Chen Du in Hals’s hand.

Although Hals spoke fiercely, he dared not be careless in the face of You Zhong’s oncoming attack.

A star plate appeared above his head, and the Three Secret Treasures emitted a dazzling silver glow.

In an instant, his body doubled in size, and the thickness of his red carapace thinned, but became more exquisite.

With a sidestep, he quite easily dodged You Zhong’s first blade.

There were two factors at play here.

Firstly, although Hals’s size increased, his agility did not decrease; it increased instead.

Secondly, You Zhong’s goal was to kill Chen Du, not Hals himself, making him easier to dodge.

“Damn it, is this kid a traitor to your civilization?!”

“You’re willing to kill such a highly talented individual; the High Martial Civilization is really getting somewhere!”

Hals’s eyes widened in anger, glaring fiercely at the person in front of him, muttering curses.

Then, his tone shifted:

“Haha, but in that case, aren’t our goals the same?”

“Just hand this kid over to me, and I guarantee I’ll eat him until there’s not even a bone left, completely clean!”

Hals laughed wildly, revealing a row of ferocious teeth, as if he could already envision himself enjoying a delicious feast.

Just then, a cold light flashed.

You Zhong seemed deaf, completely ignoring what the other party said.

Wielding two short blades shimmering with lightning power, he attacked Hals like a bolt of lightning.

“What an annoying fellow!”

Hals glanced at Chen Du in his hand and cursed.

At this moment, he was holding Chen Du with one hand, and because he had to divert his attention to deal with You Zhong’s attack, he couldn't fully unleash his own strength.

Faster than words could tell, Hals forcefully flung Chen Du downwards from his hand.

With a dull thud, Chen Du’s body, like a thrown boulder, plummeted straight to the ground.

The immense impact instantly created a small crater on the ground, sending dust flying.

Immediately after, like spitting, a “Pah!” sound.

A razor-sharp, gleaming fang shot out from his mouth like a bullet at an astonishing speed!

A muffled “Pfft” sound came, just as Chen Du’s body was rapidly falling and about to hit the ground.

That extremely sharp fang accurately and viciously pierced into his vulnerable neck!

In an instant, a strong sense of numbness rapidly swept through Chen Du’s entire body like a tide.

He felt as if he had been struck by an invisible lightning bolt, every nerve constrained by this strange power.

His entire body involuntarily fell into a stiff state once again.

But it was slightly better than before; his eyelids could still move.

Crap!

Chen Du couldn't help but let out an angry and helpless curse in his heart.

This damned continuous control lasted so long!

He completely failed to understand what was going on with this series of bizarre events unfolding before him!

Everything happened too suddenly, feeling both related and unrelated to him.

Hals, just in case, glanced at Chen Du, who lay sprawled on the ground, motionless like a lifeless dead dog.

He subconsciously licked his slightly dry lips, pondering to himself.

Those six utterly foolish fellows, at this very moment, were still foolishly waiting below for so-called intelligence.

How could they know that I have a special secret informant?

Thinking of this, Hals couldn't help but reveal a triumphant smile.

Immediately after, Hals twisted his neck, emitting a crisp “crack, crack” sound.

It was as if he was warming up for the intense battle that was about to erupt.

He slightly narrowed his eyes, concentrating intently on the Sky Soaring Warrior from the High Martial Civilization before him.

Then he slowly adopted a stance, displaying a ready and fully committed posture.

“Come on! Now there’s nothing left to hinder this spectacular duel between us!”

“Let this great lord have a good play with you, you ignorant brat!”

Hals shouted provocatively.

However, though he spoke lightly, a look of solemnity was revealed in his eyes, clearly not completely underestimating his opponent.

But the next second, Hals changed his tune:

“But I’ll give you some kind advice: it’s best not to waste time and energy here.”

“It would be wise to tuck your tail between your legs and scurry away.”

“You should know that our Sand Dune Civilization’s bodies possess the attribute of sand.”

“From birth, we are destined to have a certain degree of resistance to elemental attacks like lightning.”

“With just your Three Secret Treasures’ ‘Thunder Blade of a Thousand Jun,’ trying to kill me is simply wishful thinking!”

After saying these words, the cold sneer on Hals’s face grew even more intense.

Facing Hals’s taunts and threats, You Zhong casually replied with a nonchalant:

“Is that so?”

His tone was as calm as an undisturbed lake, making it difficult to fathom his true thoughts.

But in the very next second, the two short blades clutched in You Zhong’s hands, shimmering with cold light, suddenly moved.

They slashed fiercely towards Hals with lightning speed.

The two short blades cut two incredibly sharp arcs through the air.

One after another, they crisscrossed and whistled in, bringing with them sharp whooshing sounds, aiming directly for Hals’s vital points.

And at this moment, Hals dared not show any slack.

He suddenly extended his right arm, which had become exceptionally thick and powerful due to his gigantic transformation.

As one of the few humanoid creatures that can directly unleash Martial Skills through the body as a medium to tap into physical strength, his civilization doesn't fear sharp objects like knives and swords.

He opened his palm, as large as a fan, and directly grabbed one of the short blades coming towards him.

Because his height had now grown to a colossal four meters, he looked like a towering boulder.

His palm had also grown much larger than before.
