Chapter 551: Chapter 519: Crushing Gu Cheng

A Little Divine Power is most effective right after it’s comprehended, drastically improving one’s physical attributes.

As one’s Realm increases, the boost from a Little Divine Power diminishes.

It eventually becomes even weaker than the enhancement from Gang Power.

Still, it remains the best choice in a life-or-death struggle.

”Lin Qi, you’re courting death!”

Gu Cheng condensed his Gang Power. Red Flames erupted around his body as he vanished on the spot. The ground where he’d stood cracked, a spiderweb of fissures spreading outward.

A giant Lava Lizard materialized.

WHOOSH!

Gu Cheng shot forward, his Gang Power negating the air resistance, creating a shriek as he tore through the air.

’He’s faster!’

Lin Qi’s gaze sharpened; he could clearly sense Gu Cheng’s increased speed.

’But so what!’

He activated his Special Ability, Golden Light, and suffused his entire body with it.

With a full-power burst, his body was empowered, feeling light and agile.

WHOOSH!!

He executed his Body Technique, Thunder Extreme Nine Flashes. Empowered by Golden Light, he shot out like a bolt of black-gold lightning.

In that instant, he brandished the greatspear in his hands. Veins bulged on his arms as his Golden Emperor’s Gang Power revealed its utterly domineering nature.

ROAR!

The phantom of a Golden Emperor Tiger appeared, dramatically boosting his aura.

In the stands, the King of Mountains and Rivers’s eyes lit up.

BOOM!

Gu Cheng once again unleashed his Killing Technique—Fire Dragon Fury!

This time, with his physical attributes fully enhanced, the power of his Killing Technique was also greatly magnified.

ROAR!!

He unleashed the Fire Dragon Saber Gang, which roared through the air.

But what met it was a Golden Spear Gang, condensed into a form resembling the legendary Golden Cudgel.

Lin Qi swung his greatspear and thrust it forward violently.

Mountain and River Spear Technique’s Killing Technique—Heaven and Earth Return to Ruins!

On the fractured alloy floor of the arena, the two clashed once more.

Saber Gang and Spear Gang collided. The air vibrated at high speed as invisible shockwaves spread out like ripples.

In the next moment, searing heat and razor-sharpness clashed, each vying for supremacy, competing in sheer impact force.

It was like two cars speeding down a highway, colliding in an instant.

And Lin Qi considered himself a modified armored vehicle, while Gu Cheng was just an ordinary electric car.

The result of the collision was self-evident.

The hundreds of thousands of spectators watched the two forces collide in the arena, their eyes wide with anticipation for the final result.

”AHHH!!”

Gu Cheng felt a terrifying force. He could only watch as his Fire Dragon Saber Gang shattered.

It was as if two sharp blades had clashed, and his weapon had broken, signifying his defeat.

The Saber Gang was blasted apart, revealing the Battle Saber within. The immense impact force traveled through the blade and into his body.

The Golden Spear Gang, like a spiraling, sharp arrow, pierced past his Battle Saber and struck his body.

Intense, sharp pain spread through his body like a spiderweb, and the agony made him let out a roar of pain.

His Protective Gang Power was also shattered. The sharp Gang Power cut into his body, slashing his exposed skin.

BANG!

Before the eyes of the audience, Gu Cheng’s body, like a kite with a snapped string, slammed heavily onto the ground.

A spray of blood and fragments of his inner organs filled the air.

A large crater formed in the ground, with Gu Cheng embedded within it.

TAP TAP TAP!!

Meanwhile, Lin Qi merely used the force of the impact to retreat a dozen steps before steadying himself.

”Gu Cheng, is this all you’ve got?”

”Pathetic!”

”Just as I thought. You’re no different from Gu Ming—nothing but a clown!”

After speaking, Lin Qi began to swing his greatspear. He leaped high into the air, extending his body, and brought it crashing down like a mountain.

Gu Cheng grit his teeth against the pain, forced himself to his feet, and swung his Battle Saber to block.

CLANG!

The greatspear and Battle Saber collided again. In an instant, the terrifying force knocked the Battle Saber from his grasp, sending it flying.

CRACK!

It was the sound of several bones breaking at once. Gu Cheng fell to his knees, and the impact shattered them instantly.

Although his shoulder was protected by Battle Armor, the horrific force still fractured the bones beneath.

He spat out another mouthful of blood.

Gu Cheng’s entire face was twisted in agony as he looked up at Lin Qi.

”Gu Cheng, three months?”

”Hilarious. At your level, I could have beaten you even back when I was in the Sixth Realm.”

”You know Ivan Petrov from the Bear Country?”

”If he had managed to cultivate Gang Power, even you might not have been able to beat him!”

Lin Qi’s words were like sharp swords piercing Gu Cheng’s heart. The emotional damage was far more painful than his physical injuries.

”Lin Qi, you...!”

Gu Cheng’s eyes were bloodshot. All he could do was rage impotently.

Lin Qi spoke his final words:

”What, you’re not convinced?”

”You can go ahead and call for backup. As long as they’re in the Seventh Realm, I have no problem taking them on.”

The moment he finished speaking, Lin Qi channeled his Golden Emperor’s Gang Power, blasting it into Gu Cheng’s body and shattering his heart.

Gu Cheng’s expression froze. He then turned to nothingness, dissipating into the air.

Lin Qi retracted his spear and looked out at the crowd in the stands.

[Match Over!]

[Duel Result: Gu Cheng defeated, Lin Qi victorious!]

Above the arena, an automated voice announced the final result.

With the announcement, the entire audience erupted.

”Impossible!”

Gu Ming shot up from his seat, a look of terror on his face, repeating, ”Impossible...”

Panic consumed him.

’My brother, Gu Cheng, actually lost?’

’My brother is the champion of the Global Martial Arts Tournament! He arrived here months before Lin Qi, and he still lost?’

’How is this possible?’

The others around him were also stunned.

’Gu Cheng lost. We’re not hallucinating, are we?’

”Haha!!”

”Little Junior Brother won!”

The four members of the Split Rock Squad started laughing, especially Liang Tai, who laughed boisterously without any restraint.

To Gu Ming and his companions, the sound was exceptionally grating.

The live comments were also filled with question marks and exclamation points.

”Worth it! This fight was so entertaining!”

”This Lin Qi is insane! He actually won!”

”Gu Cheng is no ordinary person. In the tournament before last, he easily swept through his opponents to take the championship.”

”And now, he just got crushed by Lin Qi, who’s three generations of competitors younger than him.”

”There’s always a higher mountain!”

”Can you believe this is a genius who just broke through to the Seventh Realm?”

”I’m convinced. This is what a real genius looks like!”

In the front rows of the stands, a group of High Realm Martial Artists were also shaken.

CLAP CLAP!!

Someone began to applaud as they watched Lin Qi in the arena.

Pei Yiqing, dressed in a red robe, had the most thrilled expression. Beside her, Pei Hongfeng couldn’t help but nod and sigh in admiration.

”Incredible. Now that is a top-level genius!”

”They can always shatter people’s expectations and achieve the unimaginable!”
