279: Chapter 276 Williams' Outburst

"How can Shangyuan Xiu's strength be so strong?"

"With the profoundness of this move, he is probably expected to clear the ninth layer of Yuanyi Tower, which is comparable to the skill level of many Sky-Patrol Martial Artist experts in Perfection."

"He is inherently a Super-grade Star Phase 'Purple Lightning Thunder Cloud', and his skill Realm is so high. His strength is indeed extraordinary."

"The key is that he also excels in speed." This group of Starry Sky Martial Artists had very high standards. Molu Bern and Molv Bu both hailed from the Molu Family, possessing decent weapons and battle armor, and their own strength was strong enough.

However.

Facing Shangyuan Xiu's lightning swordsmanship, they were unexpectedly unable to parry and were ultimately defeated by Shangyuan Xiu fighting two against one. Molv Bu lost his life, and Molu Bern fled in panic.

In this battle, Shangyuan Xiu's formidable strength was undoubtedly revealed.

"An Earth Martial Artist can also burst forth with strength close to high-stage Sky-Patrol?" Li Jue said in disbelief, "Aida, why do I feel that Fang Yu is even a fraction weaker than him."

"Mm."

"Judging from their performance, Fang Yu is indeed a bit weaker," Aida nodded and said, "It's not that Fang Yu is not strong enough, but that Shangyuan Xiu is too strong... Among Earth Martial Artists, there are very few with such strong strength."

Li Jue couldn't help but nod.

Earth Martial Artists, even with a Super-grade Star Phase, after cultivating various physical secret arts to the extreme and utilizing innate Divine Abilities, their Foundation could only compare to Sky-Patrol Martial Artists around level 54.

Level 54 Sky-Patrol Martial Artists generally possessed mid-stage Sky-Patrol strength.

Then, wanting to burst forth with strength like Shangyuan Xiu's meant that one's skill comprehension had to reach the ninth layer of Yuanyi Tower. Such a skill level was only a step away from becoming a Starry Sky Martial Artist.

Of course, this final step was the hardest to Breakthrough.

"Back then, it took you three years to go from the sixth layer of just entering the Unity of Heaven and Man to the ninth layer of Yuanyi Tower, right?" Aida couldn't help but say.

"Mm." Li Jue nodded slightly, "That was when I stepped into the Sky-Patrol Realm. With Master's help, my Soul Realm improved extremely fast, allowing me to progress so quickly... Later, I spent another two years on the ninth layer of Yuanyi Tower, and with the help of numerous Opportunities, I finally successfully condensed the source intent."

"Compared to this Shangyuan Xiu, it is still much slower," Li Jue said softly, "According to the intelligence we gathered, Shangyuan Xiu's age should be about the same as Williams's."

"This vast Universe."

"Truly a generation of Geniuses!" Aida also sighed.

So-called Geniuses were brought out by comparison. People like Almeida and Mo Yuan belonged to top Geniuses in the Blue Moon Civilization.

But compared to the Geniuses in the Universe, they were somewhat lacking.

"At least we still have Fang Yu and a few others who can compare; the other civilizations have it even more miserable."

Shangyuan Xiu's outburst was indeed astonishing.

Time flowed on.

As the participants moved within the Hundred Beasts Mountain Range and encountered each other, bloody battles gradually broke out. Participants often died, and occasionally even top-rated participants encountered each other and erupted into major battles.

However.

Unless they were participants with obviously stronger strength like Fang Yu and Shangyuan Xiu.

It was very difficult for other top-rated participants to determine life and death... Their strengths were very close to each other, making it hard to inflict fatal damage.

Once one side fled and the other pursued, it was hard to end the battle quickly, and it would basically turn into a war of attrition.

Then, even if one desperately exhausted the opponent to death, the consumption of one's own Star Power would probably reach seventy to eighty percent, and the body would become extremely fatigued or even injured.

In the perilous Hundred Beasts Mountain Range, this was a very dangerous matter.

Therefore, after clashing in battle, once the top-rated participants felt it difficult to defeat the opponent, both sides would quickly stop and leave... Wandering the Hundred Beasts Mountain Range, preserving one's life was the top priority.

"Williams of the Blue Moon Civilization has encountered Landao Long."

"Landao Long is the number one expert of the Landao Family team, and her strength can completely rival Fang Yu's."

"Williams is not good at fleeing; he is very likely to lose his life." Many Starry Sky Martial Artists noticed this battle and quickly made a judgment.

From his previous performance, although the strength Williams displayed was not bad, among the many top-rated participants, he was relatively inconspicuous.

"Not good."

"Williams." Li Jue and Aida also became nervous.

Among the three top Geniuses dispatched by the Blue Moon Civilization this time, the one they worried about the most was Williams... Fang Yu had the strongest overall strength, and apart from Shangyuan Xiu, no one was stronger than him.

Zhuang Yiliu had astonishing speed and movement techniques... So far, except for Shangyuan Xiu whose Star Phase was 'Purple Lightning Thunder Cloud', no one had surpassed Zhuang Yiliu in terms of speed and movement techniques.

Only Williams, whose physique was not considered strong and whose speed was not fast, was instead the most dangerous one.

Now, he had encountered the publicly recognized top three existence in District 21.

Can he survive?

In the Hundred Beasts Mountain Range, above the wilderness.

Two figures with violent auras flashed past one after another, one pursuing, one fleeing.

Whoosh!

Williams suddenly stopped, stared at the round-faced woman who also stopped, and said in a low voice, "People from the Landao Family? I don't want to fight with you."

"My name is Landao Long." Landao Long smiled slightly.

She even had dimples when she smiled, possessing quite a bit of cuteness.

Williams understood how powerful the person before him was. After several frontal collisions just now, the opponent's offensive combat power was above his.

Therefore, he fled directly, but Landao Long pursued relentlessly.

In terms of speed, Williams was inferior to the opponent.

"I don't want to kill you, but I need your points, don't blame me." Landao Long moved directly, a wisp of dreamy sword light lit up, suddenly pressing over.

Her swordsmanship was breathtakingly beautiful.

In Williams's eyes, it was a beautiful trap. Not daring to be careless in the slightest, he waved his battle saber to meet the enemy, and countless auras of coldness were born out of thin air, diffusing in layers.

"Kill!" Williams shouted angrily.

Dazzling ice-cold streamers cut through the sky, blocking that beautiful sword light.

Williams knew that if he didn't make the opponent retreat in the face of difficulties, such chasing and fleeing would yield no results.

"Rumble~~~" The two major experts began a frantic slaughter.

For a time, mountains collapsed and the earth split, countless trees collapsed, and two surging powers of heaven and earth collided, resembling a massive explosion.

Suddenly—

"Chis~ chis~ chis~" A terrifying aura diffused from Williams's body, followed by countless ice condensing to form terrifying ice.

Countless ice froze in layers, covering a radius of a hundred meters in the blink of an eye, instantly submerging Landao Long.

"What move is this?" Even though Landao Long resisted with all her strength, under the obstruction of the ice, her speed plummeted drastically, and even bone-chilling cold enveloped her entire body, causing her Star Power circulation to slow down.

"Kill!" Williams's gaze was cold.

"Whoosh!"

A dazzling blade light slashed towards Landao Long.

"Break for me!" Under shock and anger, Landao Long did not hesitate to execute a life-saving secret art. Countless Star Power was driven desperately and poured into the star core, a surging aura emerged on the surface of her body, dispersing the coldness within, and also causing the countless ice around her body to shatter layer by layer, violently retreating backwards like lightning.

She avoided this fatal blade strike.

Following that, she rushed out of the range of the ice layer.

"What move is this? How could your strength suddenly surge by so much?" Landao Long was still shaken, staring in shock at Williams who was surrounded by countless ice and possessed a monstrous aura.

She really couldn't figure it out.

In terms of strength, she clearly could suppress the opponent... yet she almost got hit. If that blade had cleaved true, she would have died or suffered severe injuries.

"Hmph!"

"Being able to avoid my killing move, your consumption is probably not small either," Williams's gaze was indifferent, "If you want to try again, you can chase after me."

Swish!

Williams's figure moved, rushing out of the ice range, transforming into a stream of light and quickly disappearing at the end of the mountain range.

Landao Long's eyes flickered, and she did not continue the pursuit.

On one hand, she couldn't guess how the opponent's strength could suddenly increase drastically, which completely defied common sense, so she couldn't judge whether Williams could use it continuously.

On the other hand, just as Williams said, her consumption from the outburst just now was indeed huge. If she executed more, it would affect her star core Foundation. Even if she could kill Williams, the gains would not outweigh the losses.

"The Martial Artists of these weak civilizations should not be underestimated either," Landao Long thought to herself, transforming into a stream of light and departing.

In the spectator hall of Baishou City.

"What move was that?"

"These ice? It actually made Landao Long completely unable to block them, forcing her to withdraw from the ice range at the very first moment."

"Is this some Domain killing move?"

"Williams actually hid such a killing move." Nearly a hundred Starry Sky Martial Artists were shocked by this. They had originally thought Williams would be in great danger.

Unexpectedly, once Williams erupted, he actually forced back the powerful Landao Long.

Seeing this scene, Li Jue and Aida were both shocked and delighted. What shocked them was that they didn't know how Williams could possess such a powerful method.

What delighted them was that the stronger Williams's strength was, the further he would go in the future.

"What move?"

"It can't be seen clearly, perhaps it's some special secret art Divine Ability."

"In this vast Universe, there are too many kinds of methods. Since the monitoring System allows it, it means it is within the scope allowed by the rules." General Nanduo and Ming Bei also didn't understand it.

After all, it was just a broadcast projection; the profundity of the operation of the power of heaven and earth could not be seen from the surface appearance.

Williams fled in one breath for over a hundred kilometers, and confirming that Landao Long had not chased after him, he dove headfirst into a cave to rest.

"Really didn't expect it."

"Merely in the outer regions, the second top-rated Martial Artist I encountered forced me to use the Legacy weapon bestowed by the Chief."

Williams thought to himself, "Using it once consumes nearly ten percent of Star Power, but the power is also as I expected, large enough. The ice formed instantly can probably rival the methods of many high-stage Sky-Patrol experts."

According to the Cultivation characteristics of the three individuals Williams, Zhuang Yiliu, and Fang Yu, Ye Xinghe respectively bestowed upon them a Tier 4 Star Power weapon.

What Williams was bestowed with was a set of battle armor.

This set of battle armor greatly enhanced his vitality, making up for his shortcoming of an insufficiently strong physique... At the same time, through the secret runes engraved on the battle armor, he could make all the star acupoints in his body resonate within an extremely short time, and at the cost of a huge amount of Star Power, execute the killing move 'Ice Prison'.

If this move was executed by an expert surpassing the Starry Sky Realm, it could instantly freeze an area of over a hundred kilometers.

With Williams's skill Realm close to the ninth layer of Yuanyi Tower, he could now only barely execute it, freezing at most an area of several hundred meters in an instant... Freezing a hundred meters could make the power reach its strongest.

Sky-Patrol Martial Artists with slightly weaker strength would be completely frozen if caught off guard.
