The Myriad Manifestations Umbrella's greatsword form wasn't bright, and its shape was quite strange. But with the wind behind it, even Zhou Zekai couldn't laugh.
He didn't dodge. He didn't retreat. Ye Xiu faced off against Lord Grim. Facing the rain of bullets, Collapsing Mountain slashed.
With Zhou Zekai's mechanics, with Cloud Piercer's current shooting angle, it was completely possible for him to hit Lord Grim, but so what?
He could deal damage to Lord Grim, but he couldn't stop Lord Grim's Collapsing Mountain. In terms of attack priority, long-ranged attacks were far inferior to close-ranged attacks. This was a setting that Zhou Zekai couldn't change. Even if he used a Level 75 skill like Thunder Snipe to accurately blow up Lord Grim's head, he still couldn't force Lord Grim to retreat.
Because Ye Xiu understood this point clearly. If you wanted to defeat a long-ranged class, you could only advance. You couldn't retreat. Whether it was against an in-game Arena player, or against Glory's number one Great Gunner, Zhou Zekai, it was all the same.
So he didn't retreat.
So he maintained an attacking posture.
Under Thunder Snipe, this was the case.
Under the rain of bullets from High Speed Firing, this was the case.
Collapsing Mountain fell. Zhou Zekai had no choice but to dodge. Cloud Piercer quickly jumped back, while raising his gun and shooting at Lord Grim.
He chose to dodge, but at the same time, he didn't give up on attacking.
Lord Grim suddenly transformed in midair and slid down at a speed that a Collapsing Mountain shouldn't have.
Ye Xiu had clearly anticipated that Zhou Zekai would be able to dodge while attacking in the air, so he had made adjustments beforehand. When he jumped up with Collapsing Mountain, he had already begun making adjustments in midair.
Collapsing Mountain canceled, Falling Light Blade!
A greatsword could also be used to perform the Falling Light Blade. Although it wasn't as light and graceful as a lightsaber or a tachi, it was more impactful and oppressive.
With this change in direction, Lord Grim slid diagonally to Cloud Piercer's side. As for Cloud Piercer, who had jumped backwards to avoid the Collapsing Mountain, it would be difficult for him to change directions in midair.
But at this moment, Cloud Piercer was being controlled by Zhou Zekai, the Zhou Zekai who was said to be invincible apart from healing. Lord Grim's jump from Collapsing Mountain to Falling Light Blade in the air was so smooth that his reaction time was actually able to keep up with it. The bullet that had just been raised from the muzzle of his gun was initially shaken off by the Falling Light Blade's change of direction, but it was quickly followed up. The character in the air even used the recoil from the new direction to adjust his character's movement in the air.
This entire process didn't even take a second, yet the two had made so many changes and used so many moves. What level of skill was this?
The broadcast wanted to quickly show the hand speed statistics of the two, but by the time they did, the moment had already passed. There was no way they could catch up to the rhythm of the battle. All of this had happened in the time it took for Cloud Piercer to jump backwards.
Cloud Piercer landed on the ground and immediately rolled in the right direction. Even though he had accurately adjusted his gun's muzzle, this only dealt damage. It didn't affect Lord Grim's skill execution too much. Lord Grim followed closely behind. The shockwave from the Falling Light Blade immediately rippled outwards. Cloud Piercer, who had rolled first, wasn't able to completely avoid the damage, but he was able to quickly digest the effects of the skill. Halfway through his roll, two pitch-black gun muzzles lit up from underneath him, pointing at Lord Grim. This sort of attitude was the same as when Ye Xiu had Lord Grim take a step back and quickly stabilize himself when facing the Thunder Snipe. At any moment, both of them were trying to fight for an opportunity to attack. In a situation where they only needed to take half a step back, neither of them would take an extra step back.
Gunshots!
Tongues of fire shot out from the two gun muzzles. At this moment, Cloud Piercer and Lord Grim were already at a distance where they could fight hand-to-hand, but even in this kind of space, Lord Grim wasn't able to control the situation. Cloud Piercer, who should have been more proficient in long-range battles, continued to fire nonstop. It was as if the weapons in his hands were two cold weapons that could be used for close-range combat. That tongue of fire, that endless stream of bullets, it was as if they were the sharp edges of his cold weapons, accurately and sharply slicing at the enemy!
This sort of level had already broken through the concept of Gun Fu. This was no longer a combination of Archery and Physical Fu. Zhou Zekai's Archery was already a type of Physical Fu. This was all thanks to his extremely precise control.
"Too strong!!" In the broadcast room, Pan Lin could no longer control his emotions. He almost lost his composure as he let out a shout, but he didn't care at all. Because he believed that he wasn't the only one who had fallen into such a frenzy. The entire Glory scene would probably tremble because of this scene. Long-ranged and close-ranged, two completely different classes. Under Zhou Zekai's control, he was able to break through this barrier created by the game's settings. His Cloud Piercer was like a close-ranged class, brandishing his gun. Wildfire and Shattered Frost no longer spat out individual bullets. They were closely linked together. They were the two scalding blades in Zhou Zekai's hands!
"Too brilliant, too beautiful, too inconceivable!!" Pan Lin's mouth was filled with all sorts of praises. "This is the pinnacle, this is a revolution. I think even Ye Xiu would have to admit this."
"Yes! Glory's undisputed number one player! " Li Yibo, whose lines had almost been snatched away by Pan Lin, finally managed to snatch a line in. He was in such a rush that he even forgot to say the main subject. But would anyone misunderstand? Would there be anyone who didn't know who the subject Li Yibo omitted was? Of course not. He was obviously talking about Zhou Zekai. Only Zhou Zekai, the Zhou Zekai who had forcefully broken through Glory's settings.
Glory's number one player was him!
Li Yibo directly came to this conclusion. Facing Ye Xiu, the Ye Xiu who had repeatedly surprised them and made them feel guilty, Li Yibo dared to say this without hesitation. All of their past experiences and lessons had been forgotten. In their eyes, there was only Zhou Zekai's display of strength. They only felt that even an army of thousands would be unrivaled, let alone a mere Ye Xiu.
Yes, a mere Ye Xiu.
Right now, everyone's eyes were only on Zhou Zekai's stupefying performance. Ye Xiu? Or a wooden man? A scarecrow? None of that was important. This was a decent backdrop, one that could serve as a foil for the main character.
Too strong, too brilliant, too beautiful, too inconceivable. The pinnacle, the revolution!
Pan Lin said that even Ye Xiu would have to admit this point.
Yes, Ye Xiu would have to admit that it was indeed very strong, very brilliant, very beautiful, and very inconceivable.
But the problem was, this kind of strength, this kind of brilliance, this kind of beauty, this kind of inconceivable, he had already experienced it ten years ago!
Ten years ago, he had experienced it all.
If not for an accident, this brilliance would have stepped onto this stage ten years ago.
Ten years, reincarnation.
