Chapter 469 - 469 Fearsome Might!
469 Fearsome Might!
In the sky, the Palm Shadow that covered more than half of the sky exuded a suffocating pressure. The vast spiritual energy slanted on the ground, causing cracks of varying degrees to appear on the ground.
“Zhan Clan Master, you have to be careful.” Gu Xi smiled slightly and stretched out his big hand to press forward.
In the next moment, the huge Palm Shadow trembled and fell down mercilessly.
Zhan Wushuang snorted coldly and casually created a spiritual energy barrier that was a hundred feet thick in front of him. Then, his figure was enveloped by the Palm Shadows.
Boom–
A loud boom suddenly rang out, and the dust in the sky immediately flew up. However, this was only the beginning. After the first Palm Shadow fell, a second Palm Shadow quickly condensed in the sky. The power of the second Palm Shadow was several times stronger than the first.
Boom–
There was another deafening sound, which numbed everyone’s ears.
After the second one, the third one, the fourth one…
The power of each Palm Shadow was several times stronger than the previous one.
“Is an attack of this level really something that an intermediate Saint stage cultivator can launch? This is simply… He’s too abnormal.”
Someone in the crowd could not help but sigh as they watched everything that was happening. f𝘳ℯℯ𝙬𝒆𝚋𝐧oν𝑒Ɩ.c𝑜𝙢
Although they were not the target of these daunting Palm Shadows, they could not help but feel their hearts beat faster when they landed.
Just as everyone was surprised by Gu Xi’s means, a sixth Palm Shadow appeared in the sky, and this was the limit that Gu Xi had displayed in the competition.
Compared to the power of the first Palm Shadow, the sixth Palm Shadow was many times stronger. Just the spiritual power overflowing from it made many cultivators in the Saint stage feel a great sense of oppression. They could not imagine that if they were to face this blow, their inner defense would have been destroyed in an instant.
Then, the sixth Palm Shadow whistled down under Gu Xi’s control.
Heavy pressure pressed down on the people below, and a large area of the ground began to collapse to varying degrees. The depth was even more than a hundred feet.
The ear-piercing sound of the palm breaking through the air rang in everyone’s ears. Compared to the sixth Palm Shadow that Gu Xi had released in the previous competition, this sixth Palm Shadow was obviously on a different level.
Boom–
Soon, there was another earth-shaking sound.
The spiritual energy that filled the sky wreaked havoc and turned into a spiritual energy light pillar that soared into the sky. This power was enough to be clearly felt by people from a hundred miles away.
“It’s powerful, but it’s not enough to pose a real threat to Zhan Wushuang,” Tong Shan stared at the spot where Zhan Wushuang was standing and said in a deep voice.
However, the result was just as he had expected. As time slowly passed, the spiritual energy of the heavens and earth gradually returned to its calm state. After the dust settled, Zhan Wushuang’s figure once again appeared in everyone’s sight.
At this moment, Zhan Wushuang was still standing at his original spot. He still had an indifferent expression, and his clothes were clean and tidy. He did not look much different from before.
“If this is your second move, then it’s a bit too disappointing.” Zhan Wushuang laughed in disdain and shook his head in disappointment.
Hearing this, Gu Xi also smiled and also shook his head. He pointed upwards and said, “The Zhan Clan Master seems to be a little anxious. I didn’t mention that it’s over.”
The moment he said that, everyone, including Zhan Wushuang, could not help but be stunned. Immediately, all of them raised their heads in unison and looked at the sky that Gu Xi was pointing at.
Above them, the heavy clouds were still gathered together. The dark clouds were rolling continuously, as if something was about to be born.
“This is… Could it be that there are more?”
“How is this possible? With this kid’s Saint-stage strength, six Palm Shadows should be his limit!”
There were many surprised voices in the crowd, and many of them even suspected that Gu Xi was just doing something that was not real.
However, after a few short breaths, they changed their minds.
The heavy clouds dispersed once again, but the sun above did not shine its warm sunlight on the ground as expected. Another huge Palm Shadow covered everything.
“This is… The seventh Palm Shadow…”
“No, there seems to be another one behind!”
“How could this be…”
With everyone’s exclamations ringing in his ears, Gu Xi had a faint smile on his face. On the other hand, Zhan Wushuang’s face had already sunk.
That’s right, behind the seventh Palm Shadow was the existence of the eighth Palm Shadow. Although the eighth Palm Shadow was a little faint and dim compared to the seventh, it was still a genuine eighth Palm Shadow, and its power was absolutely not to be underestimated!
The reason why Zhan Wushuang’s face turned gloomy was because the threat that the seventh and eighth Palm Shadows brought to him was far greater than the sum of the previous six Palm Shadows! ƒ𝗿e𝘦𝚠𝗲𝚋n𝚘ν𝙚𝗹.𝑐o𝙢
“Zhan Clan Master, I wonder if you can still stand where you are after facing my attack this time?”
Looking at Zhan Wushuang’s gloomy face, Gu Xi felt an inexplicable sense of comfort in his heart.
“Young man, don’t think too highly of your own strength. The difference between you and me is like a firefly compared to the bright moon. I admit that the methods you’ve displayed have far exceeded my expectations, but this is also far from enough for you to win the bet.” Zhan Wushuang spoke coldly and his words were still filled with confidence.
Gu Xi did not choose to continue the debate. After all, at this time, strength was the best proof. Without any further nonsense or hesitation, Gu Xi pressed her hands down and two Palm Shadows fell down at the same time.
The monstrous pressure was mixed with heart-palpitating spiritual energy fluctuations. The shadows of two huge palms almost covered the entire sky. The warm sunlight completely disappeared, and in its place was a terrifying fluctuation that made people tremble.
The two Palm Shadows streaked across the sky, and the space they passed by collapsed. At the same time, Zhan Wushuang waved his hand, and a thin spiritual energy barrier appeared in front of him, protecting him.
Although the spiritual energy barrier this time looked extremely thin, it was still on a different level compared to the defensive power he had previously set up.
What he did not notice was that the moment he finished doing all this, Gu Xi, who had been watching everything, could not help but smile strangely.
The next moment, the System’s cold voice sounded in his mind.
[Ding! Spiritual Energy Barrier detected!]
[A total of 6584 flaws!]
[Analyzing! Please wait!]
Soon, a light screen appeared in Gu Xi’s mind. The light screen was covered with hundreds and thousands of red light spots, which were all the flaws of the Spiritual Energy Barrier.
“Let’s see what you can use to block this time.”
Gu Xi glanced at the position where the red dots were the densest on the light screen. At the same time, he controlled the last two Palm Shadows to whistle toward the position where the Spiritual Energy Barrier was the weakest.
Boom–
As the two Palm Shadows hit at the same time, a huge impact spread in all directions, forcing everyone present to use spiritual energy to protect their bodies in order to stand firm under the impact. But even so, some of them could not withstand the impact and were forced back more than a thousand feet.
Even though everyone was in a sorry state from the impact, they did not have the time to care about their appearance. Everyone’s eyes were locked on Zhan Wushuang’s position, wanting to see the final result of the second move.
Although they understood how big the gap was between Gu Xi and Zhan Wushuang, the power of the seventh and eighth Palm Shadows was too terrifying. They had no choice but to change their inner thoughts. They were eager to see the result of the second move.
Was Gu Xi really going to lose this bet?
Very quickly, the aftermath of the battle gradually calmed down. Zhan Wushuang’s figure once again appeared in everyone’s vision.
“This… How is that possible?”
When everyone could not wait to see everything clearly, they could not help but gasp.
