"Phew! Phew! " Wang Zhong panted heavily. At this time, it was obvious that it was very difficult for Wang Zhong to stand still, but he still managed to stand.
"You are an admirable opponent." Phumetheus's voice was less teasing and more respectful.
To be honest, even if he complimented Wang Zhong before, it was because of the environment and also because he was joking. But at this moment, this Earthling at least proved that he did have the power to fight with him. "If you enter the Solid Core Realm, I'm afraid you might really be able to compete with me."
"… Hehe …" Wang Zhong laughed. He could read the emotions contained in Phumetheus's voice. The other party was serious, but it was this seriousness that made him laugh. "Do you think you have won?"
Phumetheus closed his mouth, and his eyes narrowed slightly. If Wang Zhong said this before, he would only think that it was a joke, but at this moment, Phumetheus didn't feel that Wang Zhong was joking or arrogant at all.
Did this guy still have a trump card?
As soon as this thought came to his mind, the swaying figure in front of him had already changed.
A golden light shone slightly in the meridians of his body, and immediately after, the same golden light appeared on the already dim and withered energy wings. The golden light was like rune silk threads that filled his wings and body.
Blood clots that had formed scars fell off his body, revealing a new layer of skin that looked as if it could be torn apart by the slightest breeze. On the other hand, the holes in the energy wings, which were ragged and full of holes, had already been filled by dense golden threads of light. Golden light rapidly covered the surface of his true form. In the end, even his entire wings turned golden. An aura that was completely different from before spread from Wang Zhong's body. His aura that was originally on the verge of death disappeared, and it was replaced by a wave of vitality and spiritual power that surged forth!
"Is this guy a chameleon?"
"He's still at the Void Core Realm. What's the use?" Some people were surprised and didn't understand.
In the minds of most ordinary people, there was only one true form. There were always only a few people who could come into contact with high-level information like the Second Stage True Form.
But there were those who didn't understand, and naturally, there were also those who understood. Many members of the Celestial Honors Class had slightly changed their expressions, and in the main seat of the stands, Elder Miehill's expression changed instantly.
"Second Order True Body?!"
Almost all top-notch true bodies had a level-2 form. This was the consensus of the experts in the Land who pursued the pinnacle. Theoretically, as long as the potential of a true body was excavated to the extreme, a level-2 true body would naturally appear. However, theory was theory. Although it was easy to say, there were very few who could actually do it. This was a cultivation challenge that was even more difficult than condensing a Golden Core. Among the ten Golden Core experts, at least half of them had not researched the second stage of their true body. As for Solid Core powerhouses, they were extremely rare. Even the top geniuses in the Celestial Honors Class were all pursuing the second form of their true form. They wanted to form their Gold Core in their best state and force out their strongest potential. But in the end, less than 30% of them could complete this step.
This was the top batch of Solid Cores in the Celestial Honors Class. Void Cores? Never heard of it! In other words, at the Void Core level, it was simply impossible for them to come into contact with the concept of a level-2 true body, let alone successfully possess one.
Phumetheus's pupils contracted violently. At this time, Wang Zhong was like a newly born butterfly that had broken out of its cocoon. The increase in spiritual power from the level-2 true body was extremely terrifying, even more exaggerated than crossing a large realm. Furthermore, at this time, just Wang Zhong's golden wings alone made him feel a strong sense of threat and uneasiness! Wang Zhong's aura and spiritual power were soaring rapidly, and he had even broken through to the point where he was almost on par with him!
The originally heavy panting was gone. The level-2 form after the integration of the draconic aura was itself a process of reconstructing one's power and true body. Whether it was the physical injuries or the injuries from the spiritual power in the Void Core, they had all recovered with the unfolding of the level-2 form.
Every time anyone activated their true form, it was a process of rapid recovery. This was one of the reasons why Lao Wang was not afraid of getting injured. Of course, more importantly, it was for him to adapt. Adapting to the strength of Phumetheus's power was the only way to maximize the potential in his body. Otherwise, if he had used this move as soon as he came out, his power level would not have reached its current level.
Pa!
Wang Zhong turned his wrist slightly, and the Hidden Dragon Sword flew into his hand like a happy child.
Buzz buzz buzz ~ ~
A terrifying sword hum that made one's heart palpitate sounded. The space that was originally stable under Phumetheus's spiritual power laws was directly pulled by the trembling sword hum.
Phumetheus only felt that this tremor was completely different from before. Previously, it was just a light sound and a sword hum, but this time, every tremor was as if someone was directly hammering his heart with a giant hammer, causing his heart to tremble. Even the condensation of his spiritual power was slightly sluggish, and he almost could not hold the Liaoyuan Demonic Spear in his hand!
He was actually being suppressed by a Void Core!
Boom!
The light in Phumetheus's eyes skyrocketed, and his true body suddenly shook. Just as he was about to forcibly break through the sword momentum, he saw that his opponent had already formed a strange sword technique. The Hidden Dragon Sword was slightly raised, and the sword momentum had changed.
The golden light on the Hidden Dragon Sword burst forth, and countless Sword Qi surged in the air, turning into tens of thousands of golden flying swords. In an instant, they densely covered the entire Life and Death Arena, and the sharp tips of the swords were all aimed at Phumetheus.
Phumetheus's face changed drastically. Not only was his opponent fast in changing his moves, but what was even more frightening was that the condensed Sword Qi in the air seemed to not be very powerful. However, there were many of them, and they were hidden in a formation, giving him a strong sense of oppression and threat. How was this possible!? Even an almighty Gold Core might not have such a huge amount of spiritual power to support the condensation of tens of thousands of Sword Qi, let alone a mere Void Core like him …
"Third Sword — Million Sword Flow!"
Wang Zhong's cold voice sounded, and then he pointed his left hand slightly, and the Hidden Dragon Sword shot out.
Swoosh swoosh swoosh swoosh swoosh …
Tens of thousands of Sword Qi in the air attacked in an instant, and in an instant, the swords fell like rain! Phumetheus had no time to think about how his opponent, a mere Void Core, had the spiritual power to condense so many Sword Qi. Without hesitation, he stabbed the Liaoyuan Demonic Spear in front of him and condensed all the spiritual power in his body.
"Open!" He shouted, and a fiery red energy shield that was half the height of a person directly unfolded with the Liaoyuan Demonic Spear as the main body.
The oncoming Sword Qi, which was like a violent storm, bombarded him crazily, and only a series of clanging sounds could be heard. The surging Sword Qi was forcibly blocked by the spear shield, and the remnants of the collapsed Sword Qi shot in all directions. For a moment, they were in a stalemate.
Everyone around the Life and Death Arena was dumbfounded. At first, they completely looked down on Wang Zhong, then they slowly felt that this Earthling had some standards, and then they exchanged blows with Phumetheus. But now, they were actually evenly matched?!
This was simply unimaginable. A Void Core could have the ability to compete with a genius Solid Core like Phumetheus. What would happen if he was allowed to advance further? They were afraid that another king-level Gold Core in the Land would be born! King-level Gold Cores, such as Superintendent Erza and Elder Yimo, were far more powerful than ordinary Gold Core experts. One of them was enough to support half of a level-8 civilization! Even in a level-8 civilization, there might not even be one such person in an era! There were only a dozen king-level Gold Cores in the Land and the Heavenly Gates, but these were slowly accumulated by the tens of thousands of races in the Land over a long period of time. After all, their Gold Cores were eternal, and their lifespans were rather long …
Everyone could not help but look at the main platform. At this time, not only did Elder Miehill's expression change, even Superintendent Erza's expression could not calm down. If Wang Zhong could do this, or even win today, then she would have to think carefully about how to appease Wang Zhong's dissatisfaction with the arrangement of the Heavenly Shell Race in the Life and Death Arena. Such a super genius had far exceeded the previous evaluation of him by the race. If he could be cultivated to the Gold Core Realm, he might become an important bargaining chip in the battle between the Heavenly Shell Race and the Fire Demon Race.
Dang dang dang dang …
The continuous sounds of Sword Qi could be heard in the arena. The Sword Qi that Wang Zhong condensed seemed to be endless and naturally regenerated. The speed at which he condensed even exceeded the speed at which he consumed Sword Qi. The Sword Qi in the air increased, and what was even more terrifying was that Wang Zhong seemed to have no energy consumption at all. He continued to condense Sword Qi that filled the sky, but to him, it was effortless!
Phumetheus understood that this was the special part of that sword technique. It was probably integrated with a heaven-defying rule similar to self-replication. Otherwise, in terms of energy consumption, the consumption of his opponent's attacks would be several times greater than the consumption of his defense, and it would be impossible for him to last for such a long time. Not only that, but what Phumetheus could not accept the most was that his opponent's spiritual power had a domineering aura that could crush everything, as if his opponent was two levels higher than him. This was the truly terrifying part.
The spear and shield that could have lasted for a long time seemed to be melting. With a loud roar, Phumetheus's power continued to pour in. In terms of spiritual power, he could crush Wang Zhong by a hundred streets. It was absolutely impossible …
Impossible …
Wang Zhong's mind was focused on the Hidden Dragon Sword, experiencing the feeling of becoming one with the sword. After using the Dragon Qi, the whole world seemed to have been reborn. Even when facing the arrogance of the Fire Demon Race, as he had guessed, it was still firmly suppressed.
Sword One!
A golden light cut through time and space, flashing past in an instant. Phumetheus's spiritual power, which was soaring to the sky, stopped abruptly as if it had been electrocuted.
Crack ~ ~
A crack appeared on his spear shield, followed by a series of cracking sounds. The dense cracks instantly spread all over the spear shield. Phumetheus's face instantly turned pale, and the whole world seemed to have come to a standstill at this moment, making him feel the calm before everything collapsed.
He never thought that he would be defeated by a mere Void Core, let alone in such a place where so many people were watching. If he had gone all out from the beginning …
Unfortunately, there were no ifs in this world. The resentment of regret had just risen in Phumetheus's mind when the spear shield shattered in the next second.
Boom!
The Liaoyuan Demonic Spear could no longer be held, and it flew out of his hand. The endless Sword Qi lost the resistance of the spear shield and rushed over like a tidal wave, completely submerging Phumetheus in an instant …
The terrifying continuous Sword Qi lasted for 20 to 30 seconds. When the endless Sword Qi in the air was finally exhausted, Wang Zhong put away his sword and stood still.
At this time, the ground of the Life and Death Arena was already riddled with holes. The incomparably sturdy super-gold ground was densely covered with bullet holes, leaving behind potholes that looked like honeycombs. Meanwhile, Phumetheus was lying limp on the ground, dripping with blood. His left arm had been completely cut off, and there was almost no intact skin on his body. His original four-meter-tall Demon God True Form had also dissipated, returning to the size of a normal human body. He could only exhale through his nose.
Defeated? Phumetheus was defeated by an Earthling who was only at the Void Core Realm?
The audience was dead silent, and countless people were dumbfounded.
Who could have imagined that His Highness Phumetheus, who had just completed a historical Celestial Honors Mission, would fall in such a way on the Life and Death Arena? This was the Life and Death Arena, not an arena for comparing skills. Defeat meant death!
Was the Fire Demon Race going to lose a future leader today?
Countless people's eyes were focused on Wang Zhong. They originally thought that he was just a supporting character in the background, but who knew that he would suddenly become the master of this Life and Death Arena! At this time, if he wanted Phumetheus to live, he would live. If he wanted him to die, he would die!
"Earthling!" Elder Miehill stood up fiercely, and the coldness in his eyes seemed to want to engulf Wang Zhong, who was on the Life and Death Arena. Phumetheus's defeat was unacceptable to the Fire Demon Race and caused them to lose face, but if Phumetheus lost his life here today, then the Fire Demon Race's loss would not just be a matter of losing face.
The aura of a top-notch Gold Core expert spread from Elder Miehill's body and enveloped the entire arena, making people feel as if the originally clear sky was suddenly covered with dark clouds! He wanted to create pressure on Wang Zhong so that the Earthling would not dare to make a move!
But before Elder Miehill's aura could affect Wang Zhong, who was on the Life and Death Arena, a more tyrannical force than him interfered and easily suppressed him.
"Elder Miehill." Superintendent Erza's face was filled with a rare smile. She couldn't help but smile in her heart. Wang Zhong's performance was too surprising and pleasantly surprising. The Heavenly Shell Race did not do their best to help Wang Zhong block the attack on the Life and Death Arena, and this had definitely caused Wang Zhong to hold a grudge. Now was the time to remedy this. If he didn't perform well, he was afraid that Wang Zhong would be pushed to the enemy's side. "It's been too long since you've returned to the Heavenly Gates. Has Elder Miehill forgotten the rules here?"
Elder Miehill's face was ashen. His opponent had easily suppressed his spiritual power and pressure. She was too strong, even stronger than the rumors said! Although Erza was still very young, she was known as the strongest king-leveled Gold Core in the Heavenly Shell Race in the past thousand years. Previously, many people thought that she was too young, including Elder Miehill. But now, it seemed that even if he was at his peak, he might not be a match for this woman, let alone the fact that he had suffered internal injuries and had never been able to recover.
"Wang Zhong." Superintendent Erza stunned Elder Miehill and directly said to Wang Zhong, "You are the winner of this Life and Death Arena. You don't have to care about others. The Life and Death Arena has its own rules, and no one can control you. You can decide how to deal with Phumetheus.
Jhonas was so excited that he was about to go crazy. If it wasn't for the fact that the place was too quiet and Superintendent Erza was still talking, he would have yelled out loud. Celeste, who was next to him, couldn't help but cover her mouth.
The scene was quiet, and everyone felt that the world was unpredictable. A few minutes ago, Phumetheus was still in high spirits, and Wang Zhong was still a fish under the knife in everyone's eyes. But in just a few minutes, the roles had been reversed, and it turned out that Phumetheus was the fish under the knife.
Everyone's eyes were fixed on Wang Zhong's face, waiting for him to announce the winner of the Life and Death Arena.
