Chapter 255: 1 vs 4
Just as disbelief flashed across the Golden-Winged Roc King's eagle eyes, Song Chen was already in front of it.
The distance was so close that it could see the golden-purple light dancing in the human's eyes.
The Seven Heavenly Thunder Slashes, the seventh slash.
The blazing white blade energy struck the center of the Golden-Winged Roc King's sternum at point-blank range.
Dark blue feathers exploded, and a burst of golden-purple lightning erupted from the spot where the blade struck. The Golden-Winged Roc King let out a piercing scream, and its entire body was cleaved from the sky by the blade, crashing into the pile of ruins.
A deep, bone-revealing wound was cleaved open in the feathers on its chest, and lightning still danced across the wound, each jump causing its muscles to twitch.
All the strange beasts present were stunned.
The Golden-Winged Roc King, a mid-stage sixth-tier lord and a sky overlord, was cleaved down from the sky by a fifth-tier slasher.
Song Chen glanced at Peng Wang and knew that it had been seriously injured in the nuclear explosion just now, and its strength was at most half left. Otherwise, it would never have been defeated so easily.
Now is the time to strike while the iron is hot, so Song Chen drew his knife and headed towards the Peng King in the ruins.
On the other side, Jingyi realized what was happening.
"Attack together! Don't give him a chance to get a solo kill!"
Its mental roar exploded across the entire bay area, and at the same time, its giant mouth opened, spraying a high-pressure water column tens of meters thick towards Song Chen.
That's not ordinary water; it's mixed with the spiritual energy within it. The moment it hits its target, it explodes into countless tiny water needles, tearing the enemy's body apart from the inside.
The Abyss Python King attacked simultaneously, its body springing up from the ground, its gaping maw wide enough to swallow a skyscraper, biting Song Chen from the left.
The venom dripping from its fangs evaporates into a green toxic mist in the air, corroding and bubbling even in concrete.
The sixth-tier Sea Dragon attacked from the right. It was much smaller than the Giant Whale, but faster. Its slender body had three pairs of flippers on its sides, and each flipper had a sharp bone spike extending from its end.
It blocked Song Chen's right escape route with three bone spikes.
Another deep-sea behemoth launched an attack from underwater. Its body was flat like a ray, and its belly was covered with countless glowing tentacles. The tentacles shot out from under the water and wrapped around Song Chen's legs.
All four heads, each at level six, attacked simultaneously.
Song Chen did not retreat; his Eye of Truth dissected all the attack trajectories into lines.
The core node of Whale's high-pressure water column is 30 meters directly in front, the angle of the Abyss Python King's venomous fangs is biased, the three bone spikes of the Sea Dragon Clan are blocking the right side in a triangular shape, and the entanglement trajectory of the underwater tentacles will reach the ankle in 1.5 seconds.
Every line and every point in time is clearly visible.
He activated his soaring technique, performing an almost impossible combination dodge in mid-air.
He first sidestepped the jet of water from the whale-shaped tower, which grazed his left shoulder. The bursting water jets struck the ruins behind him, turning a half-collapsed office building into a sieve.
Then, propelled by the shockwave of the water column, it bounced backward, passing right between the upper and lower jaws of the Abyss Python King. When the giant mouth snapped shut, it missed, and the collision of the upper and lower jaws produced a deafening metallic clang.
Before landing, the Heavenly Blade slashed horizontally, severing three tentacles that had already wrapped around its calves, and fluorescent blue blood spurted from the cut.
Then, with a backhand strike, he clashed head-on with the three bone spikes of the Sea Dragon Clan. The golden-purple blade energy collided with the bone spikes, creating dazzling sparks. The sixth-tier Sea Dragon Clan member was shaken and flipped backward.
The combined attack of the four sixth-tier units was completely dismantled.
The Golden-Winged Roc King crawled out of the ruins, its chest wound still crackling with electricity, but its fighting spirit had been completely replaced by rage.
For a member of the sixth-tier royal family to be cleaved in two by a fifth-tier warrior is an utter disgrace.
It roared sharply, "This human's ability is prediction. Don't fight him one-on-one; use area-of-effect attacks to overwhelm him!"
The Nine-Tailed Fox King finally made a move.
It had been waiting for the right moment, and now that moment had arrived.
Nine tails spread out behind it at the same time, each tail tipped with pale blue foxfire.
Nine clusters of foxfire gathered in the air, merging into a giant fireball with a diameter of over 100 meters, and then exploded.
Pale blue ripples of spiritual energy radiated outwards from its center, covering the entire Tokyo Bay.
Psychological shock.
This is the fighting style that the Nine-Tailed Fox Clan excels at. Their strength never lies in direct melee combat; they fight with their spirit.
The intensity of this mental shock was enough to temporarily knock a sixth-tier martial artist unconscious, and to cause a fifth-tier martial artist to suffer a complete mental breakdown.
The Nine-Tailed Fox King unleashed its spiritual power accumulated over hundreds of years in this attack without reservation.
Just before the mental impact arrived, Song Chen sheathed his sword and used the lightning patterns on the blade to deflect part of the impact.
However, the Nine-Tailed Fox King's strength was greater than any mental attack he had encountered before. The feeling of that ripple hitting him was like being smashed on the forehead by an invisible giant hammer.
His mind went blank for a fraction of a second, and his body swayed in mid-air.
In those fractions of a second, the sea dragon's bone spikes had already arrived.
Three bone spurs came from his left side, with the top one grazing his left shoulder.
Sparks flew from the Northern Darkness Armor, but it didn't break through the armor; however, the impact sent Song Chen flying.
He smashed through three buildings before stopping.
Deep within the ruins, Song Chen stood up from the pile of bricks and stones, patting the dust off his head.
He moved his shoulder, and his joint made a clicking sound.
"Bei Ming's defense is really good; he's not injured at all."
Just then, Zhou Wangyue's voice rang out in his mind. It was a mental message, lowered to a frequency that only Song Chen could hear.
"Do you need me to go down? The Starship has entered its launch orbit and is ready to provide fire support at any time."
Song Chen's mental reply was equally brief: "No need. Teacher, do me a favor."
"explain."
"I just detected their mental signals; Whale Steed is calling for the sixth-tier beast king outside to come back and provide support."
"We can't let them converge. You help me keep them outside and prevent the outer beast kings from getting in."
Zhou Wangyue immediately replied, "What if you can't beat so many people by yourself?"
"If I can't beat them, I'll run away."
Zhou Wangyue thought for a second, then said one word: "Okay."
After saying that, Song Chen carried the Tianjun Blade back to the center of the battlefield, his gaze sweeping over all the strange beasts present.
The Abyss Python King was the first to sense that something was wrong.
It has lived for hundreds of years and fought against countless human martial artists, from the first to the sixth rank.
But this human, whose life force was only 60,000, instilled fear in it.
Normally it wouldn't be a problem, but the key issue is that it was severely damaged by the nuclear explosion.
Fear slowly rose in its heart, and it immediately made a decision: to stop fighting.
The Abyss Python King turned and burrowed underground, its serpentine body moving at terrifying speed into the deeper layers of soil. At the same time, it sent a brief message outward with its mental energy, indicating that it was too badly injured and had to retreat.
The Abyss Python King fled quickly, but the psionic trails left by its enormous body in the soil were too conspicuous. The Eye of Insight pierced through layers of soil and locked onto its escape route.
Song Chen landed on the head of the Abyss Python King, gripped the Heavenly Blade upside down, and stabbed it into the weakest spot on its scales between its eyes.
"You can kill me, but you can't escape either!" The Abyss Python King was at the forefront. The fear it had felt when it was intimidated was gone from its vertical pupils. Instead, there was a murderous intent so intense it was almost dripping from its eyes.
"Let's all attack together!"
