Chapter 254: Great Battle with Wang Zong

Outside the battlefield, Chi He was already standing with the newly arrived Oasis Group employees. Chi He also noticed that, in addition to their location, the entire periphery of the battlefield was being surrounded by more and more Oasis Group employees.

Chi He thought to himself, "Now Zhang Yu has nowhere to run. However…" He looked at Zhang Yu, who was completely suppressed by Wang Yin in the battlefield and had no power to retaliate, and secretly thought, "With Mr. Wang personally taking action, he wouldn't have had any chance anyway."

Just then, an employee nearby eagerly asked, "General Manager Chi, shouldn't we go up and assist Mr. Wang?"

Chi He glanced at him and snorted, "Someone of your caliber would only be serving Zhang Yu on a platter. Besides, Mr. Wang is currently recording a video, introducing Zhang Yu as a 'material'. Without his permission... who would dare to go up?"

Wang Yin unleashed another punch, and as a large crater exploded on the ground, a cloud of blood mist burst from Zhang Yu. But Zhang Yu seemed unfazed, directly dispersing the blood mist and charging towards Wang Yin once more. Seeing Zhang Yu, who had taken dozens of his 'Spirit Surge' punches, still looking vibrant and full of vigor, Wang Yin's face showed surprise. He thought to himself, "After taking so many of my punches, he still has such vigorous vitality?"

The next moment, a smile appeared on Wang Yin's face. "Good! Good! Good! The better you perform in the video I'm recording, the more people will bid for you."

Meanwhile, on the other side, Zhang Yu's blood and *qi* surged, and his magic power churned furiously. He continuously activated various body-protection techniques, while also pushing his 'Formless Cloud Shield' to its limits to resist the damage from the spiritual energy explosions. But even so, Zhang Yu could feel faint tremors and even cracks appearing in his flesh and bones after each of his opponent's powerful punches. Fortunately, the self-healing effects of the 'Martial Dao Sacred Fetus' continuously healed these minor injuries, allowing Zhang Yu to continue fighting until now. But even with that, Zhang Yu knew he couldn't keep enduring like this indefinitely.

"'This guy has monopolized over 70% of the magic power. The magic power I recover with my 'Qi Sea Spiritual Root' can't keep up with the consumption of the 'Formless Cloud Shield'. If this stalemate continues, he'll exhaust me to death...'"

Frowning at this thought, Zhang Yu realized that exhausting him to death was his opponent's goal. Zhang Yu thought, "Does he want to capture me alive? I wonder how much support that guy Deng Bingding talked about has arrived. I'll try to drag this out a bit longer and see. If it truly comes down to it, I'll have to use that move..."

Zhang Yu guarded his head with both hands, once again enduring Wang Yin's remote punch, then charged towards his opponent's position. As Zhang Yu repeatedly charged forward only to be sent flying back, his entire body became a bloody mess. The battlefield, moreover, was a scene of shattered ruins; the entire abandoned factory looked as if it had been ploughed, with not a single wall intact, only craters of various sizes remaining.

Feeling Zhang Yu's movements gradually slow down, Wang Yin thought, "It's almost over, isn't it?" As the disadvantage grew, the pressure Wang Yin exerted on Zhang Yu intensified, yet Zhang Yu's fighting spirit didn't diminish in the slightest. On the contrary, as the 'Sacrificial Ox Body Technique' circulated, the fighting spirit in his eyes grew even stronger. The white ox he visualized in his mind roared repeatedly, its broken horn on its forehead emitting flashes of sharp, cold light, and its white back was stained crimson, as if about to drip blood. Facing an opponent like Wang Yin, Zhang Yu, under immense pressure, continuously pushed his 'Sacrificial Ox Body Heart Technique' to an unprecedented level.

At the same time, Zhang Yu felt his remaining magic power and stamina, gritting his teeth slightly. "Although there's no good enough opportunity, I can only give it my all." With this thought, he began to activate the former military-grade cultivation technique, 'Nine Heavens Cloud-Empty Force', within his body.

Just then, a crackling sound echoed through the air. A bolt of lightning shot out, like a flash piercing the night sky, streaking fiercely towards Wang Yin's back. Zhang Yu's heart jolted at the sight. "Ah Zhen!"

Bai Zhenzhen, whose injuries were now fully recovered, stood holding a 'Primordial Magnetic Vibration Sword', radiating battle intent as she swiftly thrust the sword towards the back of Wang Yin's head. This 'Primordial Magnetic Vibration Sword' was a new piece of support equipment sent by Deng Bingding, which Bai Zhenzhen had taken directly when she left after her surgery. Infused with lightning magic power, the sword not only moved with incredible speed, like a streak of light, but its blade also maintained tens of thousands of high-frequency vibrations per second, tearing through the atmosphere and slicing through the air like thunder.

But the next moment, the sword struck the 'Nether Blood Shadow Shield', brought to a complete halt by layers upon layers of blood shadows, stopping at a distance of 12 inches from Wang Yin. Bai Zhenzhen's gaze sharpened, and she immediately withdrew her sword and retreated, seeing Wang Yin already unleashing a punch that sent out explosive waves of air. His punch missing, Wang Yin let out a long laugh. "You've finally arrived. Now I'll deal with both of you together." With that, his 'Ultimate Fist Intent' locked onto Bai Zhenzhen, and Wang Yin unleashed another punch.

"Ah Zhen!" Zhang Yu suddenly blocked in front of Bai Zhenzhen, his 'Formless Cloud Shield' churning as he took Wang Yin's punch. Bai Zhenzhen said, "Yuzi! Let's blast him within fifteen moves!" Zhang Yu's heart stirred upon hearing this. He knew that after the refinement of Bai Zhenzhen's 'Myriad Swords Endless Technique', each move, after accumulating sword momentum, became faster than the last, with the 15th sword being able to break the sound barrier. "Does Ah Zhen want to create an opportunity for me with the 15th move, to break Wang Yin's Nether Blood Shadow Shield?" Zhang Yu acknowledged with a "Good," and the next moment, he and Bai Zhenzhen charged at Wang Yin together.

Bai Zhenzhen unleashed her sword momentum, performing the 'Myriad Swords Endless Technique' move after move, each faster than the last. However, to maintain the continuous sword momentum, she focused entirely on offense with no defense. Even with her flickering, swift movements, she could easily be locked onto by Wang Yin's fist intent. Fortunately, Zhang Yu constantly covered Bai Zhenzhen, blocking the spiritual energy explosions for her time after time.

Amidst flashing electricity, Bai Zhenzhen swiftly unleashed her fifteenth sword. At the same time, the lightning magic power left across the field generated an electric field, further accelerating her. Bai Zhenzhen shot out like a dart, blinding electric light erupting from her body, her long sword tearing through the air. She had infused all her magic power into the vibrating sword. It was only after her sword pierced the 'Nether Blood Shadow Shield' that the roaring sound of the sword tearing through the atmosphere reached Wang Yin's ears. This sword strike had clearly surpassed the speed of sound.

Watching the sword pierce through layers of blood shadows like lightning, Bai Zhenzhen felt a surge of joy. "Indeed, it takes time for the blood shadows within this shield to be marshaled to different positions for defense. Therefore, the faster the attack, the less time the blood shadows have to react, and the slower the shield is in forming powerful resistance, making it more likely to be breached. In short, to deal with this shield, one must thrust through it in one go before it can react..."

However, Bai Zhenzhen could also feel that even her sound-breaking sword strike was far from enough to pierce the 'Nether Blood Shadow Shield'. But she had naturally prepared for this, and the doctor's warning echoed in her mind again. "'This 'Flood Dragon Spiritual Core' was originally an artifact prepared for Foundation Establishment cultivators. With your Qi Refinement peak cultivation, you can only use it to launch a maximum of three moves. After each move, your internal meridians will be damaged, and your muscles and tendons will be severely strained. And if you exceed three moves, your physical body will begin to collapse. By then, curing you... would likely cost tens of millions, far exceeding the 3 million medical insurance limit arranged by the Righteous God for personnel on this mission.'"

With a whoosh, the long sword rapidly accelerated again, now only 8 inches from Wang Yin's glabella. Wang Yin watched the scene coldly. "How could a mere Qi Refinement realm cultivator possibly break my..."

But the next moment, Bai Zhenzhen let out a fierce roar, and a terrifying aura of coercion burst forth from her body. The bearded doctor had explained to Bai Zhenzhen during the surgery: "Sealed within the 'Flood Dragon Spiritual Core' is a dragon-type Daoist spell called 'Dragon's Might Art'. Once activated, it can shock the mind, making it difficult for cultivators below Dao Heart Level 20 within a hundred-meter radius to circulate their cultivation techniques..."

Struck directly by the 'Dragon's Might Art', Wang Yin felt his head spin, as if he had lost consciousness for a moment. The cultivation technique that had been continuously running in his mind abruptly ceased, preventing him from unleashing his 'Ultimate Fist Intent' or monopolizing the surrounding spiritual energy. "Damn it!" Wang Yin clutched his dizzy head, but his mind remained calm. He knew that no matter how much a Qi Refinement cultivator struggled, it was absolutely impossible to break through the 'Blood Shadow Shield'.

But Bai Zhenzhen knew this as well. So, the next moment, Zhang Yu, carrying surging *gangqi*, appeared behind Bai Zhenzhen. 'Nine Heavens Cloud-Empty Force'! This former military-grade martial art was a purely combat-oriented technique. Upon cultivation, it allowed one to open an 'empty orifice' within their *gangqi*. This 'empty orifice' could temporarily store one's power during combat and unleash it when needed. For every level increased, opening an additional 'empty orifice' allowed one to store the power of an extra strike, unleashing astonishing destructive power in an instant. At levels 10 and 20, it had even more miraculous uses. Unfortunately, Zhang Yu had not had enough time to cultivate, having only reached Level 5 in this former military-grade martial art.

Nevertheless, even at Level 5, it was enough for Zhang Yu to unleash unprecedented destructive power. And during the recent battle, Zhang Yu had already accumulated five full-power strikes within the 'empty orifices' of his 'Formless Cloud Shield', having hidden this killer move while waiting for the decisive opportunity. Now, he struck out with his palm, and surging *gangqi* slammed into the hilt of the 'Primordial Magnetic Vibration Sword'. At that instant, as his full-power palm strike landed, several dragon-elephant roars echoed in the air, and the atmosphere seemed to be compressed into a tangible mass by the force of this move. Zhang Yu's own palm strike, combined with the five stored strikes from his 'Formless Cloud Shield', unleashed a total of six consecutive strikes in an instant.

Under this mountain-shattering and tsunami-like power, powerful winds exploded all around, and dust flew everywhere. And with Zhang Yu's earth-shattering strike, the two of them and the sword, with a thunderous roar, pushed the 'Nether Blood Shadow Shield' and Wang Yin, rolling and surging forward, raising a sky full of dust, shooting out like an earthen dragon. The surrounding scenery rapidly receded in the eyes of the three as the two unleashed their power.

With a whoosh, the 'Primordial Magnetic Vibration Sword' accelerated again, directly penetrating layer after layer of blood shadows, now only half an inch from Wang Yin's glabella. Bai Zhenzhen exerted more force, the 'Flood Dragon Spiritual Core' stimulating her muscles and tendons as if they were tearing, pumping all her strength into the 'Primordial Magnetic Vibration Sword'. Zhang Yu gritted his teeth, gripped the rear of the sword hilt, his entire body's muscles twisting. With the activation of 'Overload State' and the 'Zen' character from 'Spring and Autumn Endless Zen', he joined Bai Zhenzhen in pushing the long sword millimeter by millimeter towards Wang Yin's glabella.

Watching the vibrating sword draw closer, Wang Yin raised an eyebrow, both shocked and furious. "You dare!" Bai Zhenzhen roared, "You taught us that only by eating people can one rise above others!" The sword tip was now pressed tightly against Wang Yin's glabella. Zhang Yu yelled, "If we're going to eat, we'll eat the fattest! Today, you're our meal! This is Kunxu, damn it!"

Amidst the furious roars, the 'Sacrificial Ox Body Technique' operated at an unprecedented peak. Zhang Yu felt the visualized sacrificial ox in his mind let out a long cry, and drops of fresh blood emerged from the wounds on its back, forming lines of characters. The next moment, as the long sword collided with the glabella, the 'Primordial Magnetic Vibration Sword' shattered with a crash.

Wang Yin stared fixedly at the two of them, saying coldly, "This skin-and-bone artifact of mine was stripped from a Foundation Establishment master with a physical strength of Level 20. Do you really think breaking through the 'Nether Blood Shadow Shield' can injure me? Who can injure me through this layer?! Who dares to 'eat' me?!"
