Chapter 613 - Celestial Tyrant’s Star Shattering Slash
Chapter 613: Celestial Tyrant’s Star Shattering Slash
Both Meng Chao and Lu Siya could sense the space behind them shattering, and an incredibly violent spirit energy storm suddenly appeared.
The powerful suction force from the spirit energy magnetic field caused their hair to stand on end.
Both of them turned their heads simultaneously and saw something unbelievable.
A’Ji had his right arm held high in the air. His palm faced the sky as he held thousands of shattered sparks. They slowly spun like a dazzling galaxy.
As his aura continued growing, the sparks surged into his right arm, causing it to swell nonstop. Intersecting, golden spirit tattoos appeared on his burning skin. They surged out and turned into a substantial set of spirit armor. The vambrace was beautiful, and there were multiple layers to it. It then turned into a golden saber that looked like an Apocalyptic Beast’s fang.
Dancing on the tip of the golden saber were thousands of sparks. In an instant, they gathered together and turned into a small sun that let out crackling sounds and could not be looked at straight.
“That’s…”
Meng Chao and Lu Siya could not believe their eyes.
Both of them had a shocking name appear in their minds at the same time.
‘Celestial Tyrant’s Star Shattering Slash!’
It was the technique that made Saber Jin Wanhao famous.
It was also the technique that no one else but the Underground Emperor could use. He did not teach it to anyone else.
‘But how is this possible?’
Meng Chao and Lu Siya looked at each other, and they were both incredibly stunned.
Before they could come up with any explanation, their central nervous systems released an instinctive order to their nerve endings.
0.1 seconds before the spirit energy storm that could destroy planets struck them, they summoned all their strength to jump to the side.
Whoosh!
The golden fang formed by spirit energy cut toward the reinforced concrete that sealed the Vortex in a manner that could destroy everything.
Before the slash landed, the small sun on the tip magnified dozens of times and enveloped half of the storage room. Naturally, it also swallowed up the Vortex.
For a few seconds, Meng Chao and Lu Siya’s retina burned. All they saw was white and nothing else.
Their eardrums were also badly battered by the roars stirred up by the spirit energy tearing at the air. It sounded like tidal waves.
The deafening bangs made the area around them sound incredibly quiet once they were gone.
No matter how they circulated their spirit energy, they could not sense anything aside from the destructive magnetic field that A’Ji released. It was truly like a tornado.
Both of them did their best to hold each other’s hands and grit their teeth to endure the impact of the tornado rushing past them, worried that if they let go, the other would be sucked away by A’Ji’s spirit energy magnetic field.
The horrifying Celestial Tyrant’s Star Shattering Slash lasted for a total of ten seconds.
When the white flames gradually faded away and the blinding ball of light was completely extinguished, Meng Chao and Lu Siya still had their shoulders hunched. They remained in this defensive position for three seconds before they dared to peek out and check the results of that slash.
“D-Did you kill it?”
Both of them cast their gazes on the spot where the Vortex had been. The reinforced concrete iit shattered was reduced to fine sand by Celestial Tyrant’s Star Shattering Slash. It was spread out on the floor evenly.
Behind the sand were eight super alloy floorboards that overlapped with each other.
Clearly, even a monster like the Vortex did not dare to receive A’Ji’s Celestial Tyrant’s Star Shattering Slash head-on.
At the critical moment, it had picked up the super alloy floorboards on the floor to use them as a shield to defend itself.
Unfortunately, even if it had eight layers of super alloy as a shield that could block the attacks from railway guns, they were still destroyed by Celestial Tyrant’s Star Shattering Slash.
Behind the destroyed floorboards was the Vortex. It had been neatly sliced in half from head to tail.
Both pieces of its body were flipped over in different directions. Only its abdominal cavity and tail were still connected together.
They could see its organs squirming around madly, and its claws were swinging in vain, unable to grab onto anything.
The numerous attacks they launched in the past had been able to cut this creature into pieces, but it was always able to recover itself using the strange ability of its black adhesive liquid.
But the destructive power hidden in Celestial Tyrant’s Star Shattering Slash burned in the form of golden flames. They were so hot that the black adhesive liquid sizzled and turned into wisps of black steam that evaporated into the air.
The Vortex extended countless black, shuddering tentacles, but it needed to use up a lot of effort to join them together. Its regeneration speed had slowed down at least five times.
“Yes!” Meng Chao was so excited that he punched the air. “This monster’s regeneration abilities can’t be unlimited, if we just deliver one more slash—”
Thud!
But before he could rejoice further, a heavy thud caught his attention.
It was A’Ji. His eyes rolled back into his head, and he fell face first.
“Huh?” Meng Chao was dumbstruck.
Right before his eyes, A’Ji’s bulky, steel-like, huge body turned into a punctured ball. He shriveled up swiftly and returned to his original size.
The boy who was less than ten years old became even thinner than before.
His face was withered, and his limbs were thin. The skin that had been shining with a crystalline glow just then became really dull in just an instant.
This was especially so for his right arm. After executing Celestial Tyrant’s Star Shattering Slash, it was as if all of his blood and essence had been sucked dry, and only his skin and bones were left.
Clearly, the amazing skill the Underground Emperor used to rule over the lair was not something that a child could use as he pleased.
A’Ji had practically sacrificed his life to execute that move.
But it was in vain. He did not manage to kill the Vortex in one slash!
“Oh no…” A’Ji laughed brokenly with a face full of despair.
“Hehe, hehehehehehe!”
The Broken Claw Dragon’s black adhesive liquid surged forward and devoured the golden flame until the last spark was extinguished.
The Vortex’s regenerative abilities increased, and the split body fused together once more.
It cackled, as if victory was already in its grasp.
It was as if it was saying “You’ve already used your final move, there’s nothing else that can stop me now!”
Before its wounds completely healed, it impatiently rushed to the Hell’s Blood that had spilled all over the floor.
“Don’t be deceived!”
But Lu Siya was not scared by the Vortex. She thought about it calmly and instantly came to the correct conclusion. “It’s just full of bravado now! It definitely has to spend a lot of spirit energy for such ridiculous regeneration. That Celestial Tyrant’s Star Shattering Slash pushed it to the edge of breaking down. As long as we don’t let it absorb that super gene medicine, it’s dead meat!”
Before her voice could fade away, Lu Siya rushed over.
Meng Chao and the Vortex had flipped over around eight super alloy floorboards each, and the reinforced concrete and rock strata under the material storage were completely exposed, which made it really easy for Lu Siya to create her spirit energy magnetic field.
She spat out a mouthful of spirit energy-laced blood, and each drop turned into an eye of a creature made of stone. More than ten stone snakes and stone dragons rose from the ground and surrounded the Vortex, successfully stopping it for three seconds.
But Lu Siya spent the last of her strength for that. She even received a solid hit on her waist by the Vortex’s tail. She flew like a kite with its string snapped, and a horrifying, human-shaped bloody mark was left on the wall.
“Big Sis Ya!”
Meng Chao’s eyes became bloodshot, and like an injured beast, he crashed into the Vortex.
He charged forward at full speed, and each step left a huge footprint on the floor.
Just like Lu Siya, he, too, summoned all his remaining strength for this move.
Like a cannonball, he knocked the Vortex into a corner far away from Hell’s Blood.
He was already covered in wounds, and the crash made them look even more terrifying. He practically spilled the last drop of his blood.
Meng Chao could no longer control himself. He fell backward and crashed into the blue puddle made of Hell’s Blood.
“Hiss!”
Since the gene medicine was made of hundreds of Hell Beasts’ blood, it contained powerful spirit energy. The blue super gene medicine immediately seeped into his body through his torn wounds.
This Hell’s Blood puddle was made of Hell’s Blood 4, 5, and 6.
Meng Chao did not inject Hell’s Blood 1, 2, and 3 into himself. Logically speaking, it was impossible for him to endure the rampaging power seeping into his body through his wounds.
Any other normal superhuman who had absorbed Hell’s Blood directly would either go through spirit energy deviation, burn, or explode.
Meng Chao sensed waves as hot as lava running amok in his limbs and spirit meridians.
His blood vessels and nerves swelled up and bulged up rapidly.
All his cells, including his brain cells, started popping like popcorn.
He could not help but groan in pain.
He swiftly realized that he was in an incredibly dangerous situation.
He would either die of overdosing on the overly dense super gene medicine, or he would be torn by the Vortex after it recovered.
Wait.. Overdosing?
An idea appeared in Meng Chao’s mind.
The blue super gene medicine contained energy that was incredibly violent, but he had Kindling. There was no need for him to be worried about overly dense gene medicine or overly strong medicine.
After all, he needed an astronomical amount of energy to upgrade the endless list of skills he had!
Meng Chao blinked. The golden Kindling at the top right corner of his eyes instantly shattered.
He summoned the contribution point board and skill list that he had not checked for a long time.

Rows of data instantly flew past Meng Chao’s eyes like a golden waterfall.
After tabulating all the missions he completed over the past twenty-four hours, the contribution points he could use in exchange for healing and upgrading skills increased like they were going up on a rocket.
