Shocking World War Emperor-Chapter 445: One Punch

"Such a formidable lad, to actually withstand my killing intent!"

Yang Xiu’s expression involuntarily turned stern.

To withstand his assault of killing intent at just the mid-stage of the Primordial Pill Realm’s fifth level was indeed formidable!

The surrounding members of the Red Feather Team also had faces full of surprise.

Ling Chen gave a slight smile and said, "Killing intent, that kind of move, is useless against me. I forgot to tell you, I am also a Divine Thought Master!"

"What?"

"Divine Thought Master?"

...

Upon hearing this, everyone’s expressions became more animated.

Divine Thought Masters generally rarely engage directly in battles.

They mainly serve logistical support roles.

Such as concocting Elixirs, forging Spiritual Weapons, setting up Spirit Arrays, etc.

The attack methods of Divine Thought Masters are indeed very tricky.

But the drawbacks of Divine Thought Masters are also very clear.

That is, their defense is extremely weak.

If they cannot withstand an opponent’s attack, there is only one outcome for Divine Thought Masters, which is death.

Moreover, Divine Thought Masters are too slow.

If they cannot match their opponent, they can’t even escape.

That’s why very few Divine Thought Masters dare to directly enter the battlefield.

Unless they practice both Spiritual Power and Divine Soul.

But whether it is Spiritual Power or Divine Soul alone, just cultivating one of them consumes the vast majority of one’s energy.

How could one possibly manage both?

Even if someone is greedy and practices both paths, their strength tends to be problematic.

"No wonder!"

Yang Xiu’s expression became grave.

Indeed, a Divine Thought Master could withstand the killing intent.

After all, the main function of killing intent is to intimidate the opponent’s Divine Soul, causing them to feel fear and panic.

Thus, unable to exert their normal strength.

And, a Divine Thought Master, who cultivates the Divine Soul, is much stronger than ordinary people.

It’s not surprising that they can withstand the killing intent.

"Good! Then let me see the strength of a Divine Thought Master!"

Yang Xiu’s hand revealed a longsword.

"Shoo!"

Purple Spiritual Power emerged, and Yang Xiu turned into a purple streak of light, charging towards Ling Chen.

Then, the longsword, billowing with Sword Qi, fiercely slashed towards Ling Chen.

As an opponent in the eighth layer of the Primordial Pill Realm, especially one who has endured the trials of the battlefield, naturally mastered a superior Heavenly Spirit Technique.

However, for soldiers, defeating an opponent doesn’t necessarily require the use of a superior Heavenly Spirit Technique.

Sure, Heavenly Spirit Techniques are astonishing in attack.

But they consume too much Spiritual Power.

Often on the battlefield, killing the enemy at the least cost is the true way.

The battlefield is full of endless dangers, and for a Cultivator, once their Spiritual Power is exhausted, it puts them in an extremely dangerous predicament.

Therefore, keeping oneself combat-ready at all times is also an essential doctrine for a soldier.

"Humph!"

Ling Chen snorted coldly, his eyes sharp.

Black Spiritual Power roared out.

Beneath the black was the green starlight of the Undying Star Body.

Facing Yang Xiu, who had survived the battlefield, Ling Chen naturally did not dare to be careless.

"Shoo!"

Ling Chen infused Spiritual Power into his legs, then his figure flashed, and he instantly appeared ten yards away, dodging Yang Xiu’s attack.

"What amazing speed!"

A hint of shock surged in Yang Xiu’s eyes.

His cultivation level was three levels higher than Ling Chen’s, and even without using any Spirit Art, just the disparity in Spiritual Power alone should have given him a complete advantage in speed.

The watching soldiers all had stern expressions.

Clearly, such speed had far surpassed the limit of an ordinary mid-stage fifth-level Primordial Pill Realm Cultivator.

"Young man, can you stop dodging?"

Yang Xiu said mockingly.

On the battlefield, very often, one needs to confront challenges head-on.

Even if one wants to dodge, sometimes, the dense Spiritual Power attacks around are not so easy to evade.

"Okay!"

Ling Chen nodded.

Originally, he had planned to witness the true strength of an eight-layer Primordial Pill Realm cultivator.

Now it seems, there is no need.

Since Yang Xiu is seeking defeat wholeheartedly, Ling Chen will grant him his wish.

"Draw your weapon!"

Yang Xiu said coldly.

In his hands, a flash of light, already switched to another longsword, indeed a mid-grade Spiritual Weapon.

"To deal with you, I don’t need a weapon!"

Ling Chen smiled slightly.

"Arrogant!"

Yang Xiu roared with rage.

He is at the eight-layer of the Primordial Pill Realm, while Ling Chen is merely at the fifth layer. To dare disregard him to such an extent, that’s simply courting death.

"Too arrogant!"

The observing soldiers also glared at Ling Chen with eyes full of anger.

Ling Chen’s arrogance humiliates not only Yang Xiu but also them.

"I want to see what makes you dare to belittle me?"

Yang Xiu shouted coldly.

His right hand with the longsword unleashed a dazzling streak of purple light.

"Whoosh!"

Then, a burst of Sword Qi slashed out of the sword, furiously aiming to chop at Ling Chen.

Although extremely furious, he did not use his full strength, only using a low-grade Heavenly Spirit Technique for attack.

With the augmentation of a mid-grade Spiritual Weapon and Spiritual Power, this strike wasn’t something that a fifth-layer Primordial Pill Realm youth could easily withstand!

"Chasing Stars, Pursuing the Moon!"

Watching the ignited purple Sword Qi, Ling Chen’s lips curled up in a smug smile, and with a move of his feet, he employed a mid-grade Body Technique Heavenly Spirit Technique.

"Whoosh!"

Ling Chen’s figure flashed like instant teleportation, brushing past the purple Sword Qi, then appearing in front of Yang Xiu.

"Take my punch!"

With a shout, a fist wrapped in Spiritual Power suddenly enlarged in Yang Xiu’s line of sight.

Then, it smashed directly into Yang Xiu’s chest.

"A mere fifth-layer of the Primordial Pill Realm, not even using a Heavenly Spirit Technique, likely couldn’t break even my defense!"

Yang Xiu fearlessly took the hit head-on.

"Bang!"

Just then, the Spiritual Power Defense in front of Yang Xiu was instantly shattered by Ling Chen’s punch, emitting a dull sound.

"How is this possible?"

Yang Xiu’s face filled with disbelief, his sneer immediately froze.

His Spiritual Power Defense was actually shattered by Ling Chen’s punch!

"Boom!"

However, now was not the time to think.

Ling Chen’s fist landed directly on Yang Xiu’s chest.

"Spurt!"

Yang Xiu’s complexion changed, a spurt of blood ejected out, then his figure flew backward for several meters, stabilizing only after quite a distance.

In that moment, everyone stared in baffling disbelief at the young figure.

Who could have thought that Ling Chen would defeat Yang Xiu with just one punch?

Even Zi Tiange was dumbstruck. freēwēbηovel.c૦m

Ling Chen had mastered that level of Sword Dao, he initially thought Ling Chen would use that kind of technique.

Who knew, Ling Chen would just decisively opt for a punch.

The problem is, Ling Chen didn’t use any Spirit Art at all!

Though he knew, Ling Chen’s physical body was powerful.

But this time, the difference in Spiritual Power between Ling Chen and Yang Xiu was three levels.

Ling Chen didn’t even use any secret technique to boost his Spiritual Power!

Even with a strong body, it shouldn’t be enough to defeat Yang Xiu with just one punch, right?

Looking at everyone’s confused faces, Ling Chen’s lips curled up in a smile.

Just now, he hadn’t used any Spirit Art.

But, what he did use was the Sword Body Realm.

That’s right.

It was the second realm of Sword Dao, the Sword Body!

Turning body into a sword!

And yet, only a part of his body turned into a sword.

That was his fist.

Though it was a punch, within the punch was a sword, and within the sword was a punch.

It was clearly a fist, yet endorsed with the offensive might of the Stellar Blade Realm.

Only then he accomplished such an unbelievable scene.
