Soul Land V: Rebirth of Tang San-Chapter 1057 - 1055: Immortal Golden Body

Jiang Chenchou’s Flame Column struck inside Pretty Girl’s space gate, and it didn’t just get devoured entirely but started to explode as soon as it entered the light door. It consumed Pretty Girl’s space power through the explosive force of fire elements.

He obviously had studied Pretty Girl’s situation carefully and understood her strengths as well. In terms of cultivation base, Pretty Girl might very well be the weakest contestant in this battle for the throne. After all, she hasn’t been a Great Demon King for long.

Therefore, right from the start, Jiang Chenchou had crafted a plan centered on depletion—using his powerful fire element power to drain the bloodline power that Pretty Girl used to control space.

But, would this really work? Pretty Girl’s real strength lies in the Asura God’s Sword, already showcased during her match against Lan Moqian. However, from Jiang Chenchou’s steady demeanor so far, it seemed like he was thoroughly prepared.

At this moment, a thought struck Tang San, realizing something.

In the battlefield, Pretty Girl could be considered battle-hardened. When she sensed her opponent draining her, she didn’t hesitate at all and reacted almost instantly.

At her forehead, a speck of red light shone; the next moment, the Asura God’s Sword was already in her grip. Pretty Girl’s aura transformed drastically, her towering sword beam shot up into the sky, painting her surroundings in red. The traces of space power, influenced by the Asura God’s Sword, instantly began deepening, growing increasingly stable, unmovable by the blasts of the Flame Column.

In the previous fight, Pretty Girl had initially integrated Heaven Shifting with the Asura God’s Sword. The mighty power had first revealed the transformation after a powerful combination. Now, the Asura God’s Sword in her hand once again followed a peculiar arc, beginning to rhythmically pulse. Suddenly, powerful space power encircled the Asura God’s Sword, pulling along the opponent’s Flame Column, rapidly gathering the golden-red beams in front of her.

Jiang Chenchou also reacted in an instant, his attack columns suddenly converging. His physical body didn’t appear, but the Sunflowers quickly overlapped, merging into a larger Sunflower. Soon, a massive Sunflower measuring over fifty meters in diameter appeared opposite Pretty Girl.

The fierce golden-red color rhythmically pulsed inside it, gradually spiraling into a giant golden-red vortex. Even the audience could clearly feel it frantically absorbing fire elements from the air, including the sunlight’s beams. The energy was also climbing crazily in multiples.

After an initial probing attack, the real contest between the two seemed imminent. frёeweɓηovel.coɱ

At this moment, all spectators had forgotten to cheer but were holding their breaths watching this scene. Everyone knew that once the contenders clashed again, it would surely be a groundbreaking situation. And whoever managed to advantage in the head-on collision could likely steer the course of this match.

In the resting area, Tang San watched this scene, his expression turning solemn. Little Beauty, can you predict the opponent’s tactics? You surely can, right?

Jiang Chenchou’s response to Pretty Girl’s attack was undeniably smart. In the previous fight, Pretty Girl used the borrowed force from Lan Moqian, combining it with her own power using the Heaven Shifting technique; that sword strike was truly earth-shattering. Had it not been for the intervention of Earth Yin Heavenly Spirit Emperor, who served as the judge, Lan Moqian would have been in mortal danger.

However, that battle also reminded Jiang Chenchou. Why was that sword strike from Pretty Girl so powerful? It wasn’t just her own power; a significant part was borrowed from Lan Moqian. So, what if there was no borrowed force? The might displayed by the Asura God’s Sword would naturally diminish.

So, when Jiang Chenchou noticed Pretty Girl employing her swordsmanship, he immediately ceased his own attack, just so as to make Pretty Girl’s Heaven Shifting impossible to leverage off of. He then used this time to accumulate power, forming massive fire elements in preparation for a head-on collision as Pretty Girl launched her full-force strike.

Facing the change in her opponent, Pretty Girl seemed totally unaware, as the Asura God’s Sword slowly circled around her and was then raised high above her head. That brilliant red light, carrying with it the will to judge all creation, burst forth once more. Pretty Girl’s eyes also turned red in that instant. It seemed as though the Righteous Energy of Heaven and Earth was completely concentrated in the Asura God’s Sword at that moment, as she gazed piercingly at the opposition.

Jiang Chenchou also felt immense pressure, facing a divine tool like the Asura God’s Sword, no matter how much preparation was done, as long as it was a head-on confrontation, one could feel how powerful and Unbreakable that terrifying sword beam was.

In his eyes, Pretty Girl appeared as majestic as a towering palace gate, and within that single sword strike, it seemed to contain the power to overturn heaven itself.

Both parties were gathering strengths, and meanwhile, the Undying Great Demon Emperor in the sky was already releasing beams of light, melding them into the Defense array below. It couldn’t be denied, maintaining the Defense array in this Emperor’s battle consumes a substantial part of the Ancestral Court’s resources.

However, the emperors acting as judges certainly preferred to see the contestants resolve the battle quickly within a short period of competition. Although a sudden clash would cause a greater impact, it was better than a prolonged drain. For Powerhouses like the Great Demon King, whose bloodline power is self-sustaining and can even utilize the Return to Ancestors to continuously maintain their energy levels, a war of attrition could theoretically last forever. Such scenarios have indeed occurred during the elimination rounds.

Although risking a major move is dangerous for both parties, the competition is ultimately about depth, experience, skills, and preparation. Confident powerhouses would choose such a method to fight. They don’t give their opponents any chance to entangle with them.

Who doesn’t have flaws and weaknesses? Just like Pretty Girl’s insufficient accumulation is her weakness, confronting an opponent’s weakness with one’s strongest suit is the optimal strategy.

Pretty Girl possesses the magical skill Heaven Shifting, as long as she opts for a fierce head-on confrontation, her opponent could not choose another method. This is because if the opponent attacks Pretty Girl while she’s accumulating power, the opponent’s attack could very likely become part of her accumulated power, which is a scenario the opponent definitely doesn’t want to see. Therefore, what Jiang Chenchou chose to do was already the best option.

Pretty Girl took a deep breath, stepped out into the void, and the Asura God’s Sword in her hand transformed into a dazzling red beam shooting up into the sky. The enormous red sword beam displayed a brilliance like that of the creation itself. Even the powerful blaze resembling the sunfall of the Sunflower, seemed dim in comparison to this crimson light.

Lan Moqian, observing from the rest area, also wore a grave expression seeing this scene.

That day having been defeated by Pretty Girl, how could it be truly convinced? It had been analyzing the battle conditions of that day repeatedly. It hadn’t collided with Pretty Girl’s final strike at that time, and it naturally believed later that it wasn’t an attack that it could have withstood—it was the Heavenly Spirit Emperor that had saved it. Yet, it still believed that half of the full force of Pretty Girl’s attack at that time had been its own; although Pretty Girl’s divine tool was powerful, if it hadn’t borrowed its power, it wouldn’t have been so overwhelmingly strong.

However, right now, when it witnessed Pretty Girl wielding the sword and finally slashing down with it, it began to realize, even without external support, just with their own pair of divine tools, they might not be able to withstand such an attack!

As they say, bystanders see more clearly than the players themselves. At this moment, as Pretty Girl’s Asura God’s Sword was slashing down, it felt like the sky was cracking open, a sensation akin to the heavens meting out a judgment. It was not just an energy attack, but also accompanied by a terrifying Consciousness Shock!
