Chapter 109 The battle begins
In the sky, Zhu Lu stood like a god of war, the Soul-Chasing Spear in his hand gleaming with a chilling light.
His entire body exuded an unparalleled and powerful aura. The man and his spear, carrying earth-shattering power, pierced through the sky like a bolt of lightning, fiercely thrusting towards the enemy below.
On the ground, Wu Ren was equally determined.
He then circulated his spiritual energy to its fullest extent, and the surging spiritual energy rushed through his meridians like a flood bursting its banks.
As the spiritual energy continued to gather, Wu Ren's entire body was dyed a dazzling gold!
Suddenly, Wu Ren's eyes snapped open, gleaming with a sharp light.
He lowered his body, then pushed off with both legs, and shot out like a cannonball with lightning speed.
Its speed was so fast that it instantly compressed the surrounding air, causing it to emit a piercing sonic boom.
Due to high-speed friction with the air, his body was engulfed in raging flames, and from a distance, he looked like a giant burning fireball.
Zhu Lu in the sky and Wu Ren on the ground each carried earth-shattering power as they charged straight at each other.
Their eyes blazed with boundless fighting spirit, determined to crush each other underfoot.
If viewed from a distance, one could see two enormous fireballs colliding with tremendous speed.
A deafening roar followed: "Boom!"
The deafening roar was like a thunderclap from the heavens, or the thunderous roar of ten thousand horses, echoing through the sky and reverberating endlessly.
With this loud bang, an extremely terrifying burst of explosive energy suddenly erupted.
The energy was so powerful that it was comparable to a nuclear explosion, and the resulting shockwave swept outwards like a tidal wave.
Those towering trees that required ten strong men to barely encircle were as fragile as paper in the face of this shockwave, instantly shredded into dust that filled the entire world.
The boulder, which was taller than a person, was crushed into powder in the blink of an eye, like rotten wood, in the face of this terrifying power!
The countless wild beasts that were originally hiding in the dense forest were also instantly devastated, and in the blink of an eye they were crushed into puddles of disgusting mincemeat by the powerful force.
In an instant, the scene became extremely bloody, with death and destruction becoming the dominant themes...
However, the two people at the center of this storm were completely oblivious to everything happening around them.
They stared intently at each other, their weapons clashing and clanging with deafening noise.
Suddenly, the sky darkened, and the sun and moon lost their light.
Every clash was accompanied by a tremendous impact; the evenly matched strength of their opponents brought them to a climax right from the start.
The immense force caused them to involuntarily stagger backward, each collision a solid, real impact.
Wu Ren felt as if thousands of steel needles were piercing his hands at the same time; the sharpness of the Soul-Chasing Spear caused him immense distress.
Seeing this, I secretly thought to myself, "This is bad!"
His overconfidence in his physical strength led to his downfall; he severely underestimated the sharpness of the Soul-Chasing Spear and the power of a human.
He assumed that, like the countless other so-called divine weapons he had encountered before, they were all overrated and unworthy of their reputation.
But the Soul-Chasing Spear in Zhu Lu's hand was a peerless divine weapon that could break through his protective aura!
On the battlefield, any mistake or hesitation will have serious consequences. Because here, it is only a struggle between life and death, and there are no "what ifs".
Seeing his spear continuously inflicting damage on Wu Ren, Zhu Lu's eyes revealed joy, but his heart was already churning with turmoil.
Wu Ren, who was standing in front of him, had just broken through to the final stage of the Enlightenment Realm, but the strength he was showing was in no way inferior to that of himself, an "old man" who had been at the peak of the second level for three years!
At this moment, he had a personal understanding of the innate human physique.
As expected of a race that embodies the essence of heaven and earth, and as expected of humans who can crush other races in cultivation.
Having just broken through to the final stage of Enlightenment, he was able to unleash the strength of the peak of the final stage of Enlightenment.
How enviable!
In his view, he has been diligently studying all these years and has never slacked off in the slightest.
However, this guy who had just entered the final stage of enlightenment was actually able to fight me to a standstill!
All of this is because he is human and possesses an innate physical body, which is an unparalleled advantage for the other party.
But how could he know?
Wu Ren endured countless days and nights, fighting bloody battles against powerful enemies with only his own physical strength, risking his life.
Behind every extraordinary ability he displays today lies endless pain and unimaginable sacrifices.
You should know that Zhu Lu was someone highly valued by Zhu Xian.
As a savage beast at the initial stage of the sixth level, Zhu Xian possesses strength equivalent to that of a human at the initial stage of the Nascent Soul realm, and naturally has extraordinary insight.
Zhu Lu, who was chosen by him, must have been no ordinary person.
Because of his exceptional talent, he has always been very confident.
This led to his arrogant personality, but Wu Ren's appearance trampled his arrogance underfoot.
Therefore, when he realized that Wu Ren was very wary of the Soul-Chasing Spear, he did not hesitate to change his tactics and decisively abandoned the way of fighting by simply relying on his own strength to confront the enemy head-on.
Instead, the focus shifted to fully utilizing the indestructible sharpness of the Soul-Chasing Spear, launching a continuous barrage of tricky attacks on the opponent in an attempt to inflict more damage.
As time went on, Zhu Lu's marksmanship became increasingly sharp, ruthless, cunning, and unpredictable.
Wu Ren knew the power of the Soul-Chasing Spear well, and faced with its fierce attack, he dared not confront it head-on.
They could only dodge left and right, and for a time they were put in a passive situation where they could only be attacked.
At this moment, he was only able to parry Zhu Lu's cunning and ruthless spear techniques, and had no power to fight back.
Suddenly, a buzzing sound was heard.
In an instant, the spear, like a dragon leaping out of the sea, swung wildly with unparalleled momentum and power.
The gunshots overlapped one after another, as if countless dragons had appeared in the world at the same time, dazzling the eyes.
At the same time, deafening dragon roars emanated from the Soul-Chasing Spear.
The impact of this fierce attack was so astonishing that the ground beneath their feet began to tremble incessantly.
Each time the spear struck the ground, it caused an earthquake, as if the whole world was about to collapse.
Meanwhile, the sky was filled with a continuous roar, like ten thousand thunderbolts surging forth, with an immense and powerful force.
In the blink of an eye, the sharp spear tip, like the gaping maw of a dragon, hurtled towards Wu Ren.
The sharp spear tip was faster than lightning, shattering space wherever it passed!
Such a terrifying attack was impossible for Wu Ren to withstand head-on. He could only do his best to leap to the right, his body suddenly darting out.
"Rumble..."
The spear attack triggered a violent explosion!
Just a second before the spear tip fell, Wu Ren narrowly dodged it.
However, Zhu Luxian put a lot of effort into his marksmanship, and his marksmanship was exquisite and incredibly fast.
Just as Wu Ren dodged the powerful spear, Zhu Lu's pointed spear came at him again.
This left Wu Ren constantly under Zhu Lu's attack, with no time to organize a counterattack.
For a moment, Wu Ren was forced to dodge repeatedly by his opponent.
Just then, a loud bang was heard—"Boom..."
Zhu Lu roared like a tiger: "Soul Chaser!"
The incredibly sharp spear tip shot straight toward Wu Ren's head like lightning.
The power contained in this shot was immense, causing ripples to spread throughout the space.
A piercing explosion rang out in the air, like the painful groan of space being torn apart.
Faced with this sudden and deadly attack, Wu Ren was greatly alarmed.
But his years of combat experience allowed him to react at the critical moment. He twisted his body suddenly, did a somersault, and quickly dodged to the side.
The spear tip barely grazed his scalp, and the powerful gust of wind sent a shiver down Wu Ren's spine.
He managed to dodge the fatal shot, but this left his back completely exposed.
On the ever-changing battlefield, even a fleeting moment can be magnified infinitely by the opponent.
Zhu Lu, who was at the peak of the second level, seized this excellent opportunity precisely.
Just as Wu Ren turned around, Zhu Lu's spear, like a dragon emerging from the sea, with the force of thunder and lightning, swiftly and fiercely slashed towards Wu Ren's back.
This strike was incredibly powerful; the immense force it contained even caused the space where the spear passed to shatter and break apart.
Wu Ren was desperately trying to dodge his opponent's spear thrusts, and he was now in an awkward situation with nowhere to take advantage of, while Zhu Lu's horizontal spear had already arrived with lightning speed.
The timing of this attack was perfect, catching the opponent when their old strength was exhausted and their new strength had not yet been replenished.
Moreover, their angles are tricky and their methods are ruthless!
As expected of the strongest strike of the Soul-Chasing Spear, it's not a single move, but a series of attacks!
In the blink of an eye, the sharp tip of the Soul-Chasing Spear was only inches away from Wu Ren's abdomen, and it looked like it would cut him in two at any moment.
