Chapter 359: Beating the Sage Until He Trembles!
“Wait, I have a way to restore your uncle!”
The voice of the Fourth Layer Sage was filled with terror as he looked at Zhou Tong rushing towards him, as if he were seeing a terrifying ancient beast, trembling all over.
This guy was just too ferocious; the sheer violent strength, the enhancement of his realm, and the horrific combat power were beyond his comprehension.
What kind of Semi-Sage at the Seventh Layer could crush a Sage like this? Today, he encountered one!
Zhou Tong remained silent, rubbing his hands together, turning that severed arm into ashes, and then regenerating it once more.
In just a few exchanges, the opponent’s courage shattered, and he couldn’t help but scream, “Don’t come over here!”
Fear-stricken, he covered his wound and forcibly used his vitality to summon a new arm.
Not only that, but he also pushed his speed to the limit, wanting to escape from that devil as quickly as possible!
However, in the next moment, Zhou Tong performed the Movement Art and appeared above him!
A cold light flashed, and the Three-pronged Double-edged Saber appeared, slashing down from above!
With a “puff!” blood splattered; a radiant light seeped into flesh and blood, rushing into his organs, creating chaos within!
The opponent was caught off guard, suffering a severe injury in an instant—an injury that was nearly irrecoverable!
It seemed that in the next moment, he was about to lose his head!
“I’ll fight you to the death!”
In a desperate situation, he bore the pain and unleashed his last resistance.
He burned his essence blood, extracting all his potential, restoring his aura to its peak, and even surpassing his limits, reaching a strength close to that of an Extreme Sage in the Fivefold Realm, achieving a brief qualitative change!
“You forced me into this; if you don’t want me to live, then you die too!”
Suddenly, he turned ferocious like a hungry tiger pouncing on prey, launching a counterattack against Zhou Tong.
“Interesting!”
Zhou Tong stepped back a few paces, raising one hand slightly, causing a lotus flower to float out.
“Heavenly Sword, Armageddon Lotus!”
The dazzling lotus radiated a breath of destruction, but the opponent didn’t even glance at it, reaching out to grab it instead, crushing it instantly, immediately raising his arms to block the slash of the Three-pronged Double-edged Saber!
“Hmph… the situation has reversed!”
The opponent showed a pleased smile; the gap between an Intermediate Sage and a Low-level Sage was far greater than that between a Sage and a Semi-Sage. This was an unfathomable divide.
At least now, he had overpowered Zhou Tong in strength and could endure his moves.
Zhou Tong smiled; he found the opponent’s confidence premature!
Both were at the Sage level; if one still believed that pure strength could decide the outcome, that was too naive!
With a whoosh!
The Three-pronged Double-edged Saber trembled slightly, and a light seal shot out from the blade.
At his level, any part could conceal deadly intent and unleash unexpectedly powerful attacks, even weapons were no exception.
“Omniverse Illusion Seal!!”
Seeing the shining light coming toward him, the opponent’s pupils constricted, and he hastily pulled back to defend. At that moment, the blade also descended!
“Bang!!”
Brilliant colors erupted, and billowing clouds flowed while a terrifying noise roared throughout the ancestral graveyard, making the entire Profound Yin Mountain shake violently!
When the dust settled, the opponent revealed a face covered in dirt, and not only that, he had a noticeable injury on his shoulder; he had failed to defend against both the slash and the seal.
If his realm hadn’t surged, he would have already died twice.
“Heh…”
Zhou Tong laughed again; the opponent had the power of an Intermediate Sage but lacked the corresponding combat awareness—dealing with him was easy!
“You brat, what are you laughing at? I was just careless earlier, allowing you an opportunity. From now on, you won’t even harm a single hair on me!”
“Art of Arms, Rain of Destruction!”
Before the words finished, Zhou Tong unleashed a terrifying offensive, with the Three-pronged Double-edged Saber covering the skies like heavy rain falling down!
“Don’t think you can harm me!”
The opponent’s vitality surged, bloodshot eyes glaring as he swung his arms, deflecting the blades while charging at Zhou Tong!
“You brat, come here with your life!”
A punch barreled forward, unstoppable, shaking the very space and hitting Zhou Tong’s body directly.
With a crack, the Zhou Tong in front shattered into bits; it was merely an illusion.
“Ahhh!”
Perhaps due to being overwhelmed by the immense force, the opponent momentarily failed to react, standing in place, roaring in anger.
But Zhou Tong wouldn’t give him any time to adjust; at that moment, the black coffin rose from the ground, enveloping him entirely!
“Spirit Seal 90, Black Coffin!”
Accompanied by a chilling voice, the coffin suddenly exploded, unleashing a torrent of power capable of distorting time and space. Even a strong warrior couldn’t withstand the crushing force!
Even an Intermediate Sage could only break through his defenses, spewing blood as they flew back.
“You kid, you’re being too arrogant! I’ll take you down with me!”
Falling again into a disadvantage, the opponent’s eyes bled red as he unleashed his ultimate spiritual energy, clearly prepared for a final gamble.
Profound Sky Hammer, Cataclysmic Wave!
A terrifying aura descended, enveloping everyone present; if this strike was unleashed, everyone present would be affected.
There were only a few people present from the Profound Sky Hall, all being Sages, so the influence on them would be minimal, but Zhou Tong’s side would suffer terribly—over a thousand people, with at least a third casualties!
“Let’s see how you dodge this!”
As he spoke, a hundred-foot giant hammer appeared above his head, an overwhelming force ready to shake the ground any moment.
“I see it!”
Zhou Tong’s voice emerged close to him, the light in his eyes flowing, grasping a fragment of the future.
“In the next moment, your hammer will crack!”
As the words fell, Zhou Tong split into three, clearly using the Art of Battle to create outside incarnations that surrounded the opponent.
“Hmph! Do you think this will work?” the man couldn’t help but sneer.
“Sealing Divine Technique, Mental Bomb!”
One of the avatars immediately unleashed a mental attack, crushing his spirit!
“Ahhh!!!”
Unable to help but scream in agony, the opponent trembled violently, even the giant hammer above him dimmed slightly.
But that wasn’t the end. The second avatar attacked almost simultaneously, launching a spiritual talisman.
“Spirit Seal 91, Thousand-Handed Radiant Cannon!”
“Boom!”
Such a close-range strike was unbearable even for an Intermediate Sage; his organs shifted in an instant, and the connection of power was directly severed!
The Profound Sky Hammer dissipated, completely losing its threat!
However, that wasn’t all. The final avatar moved at that moment; his method wasn’t harsh, but it was the most deadly!
“Life-Balance Dominion!”
“Breath of Annihilation!”
“Chaos Malevolence!”
These three lethal moves specifically targeted the very source, and now unleashed together, even a Sage would tremble, let alone him, a Sage burning through potential!
In an instant, his explosive state was forcibly interrupted, and he faced backlash, causing his cultivation to plummet to the Second Layer of Sage!
At the same time, he regained clarity, seeing Zhou Tong combine the three forces and stab downward from above!
“Don’t!!”
With a thud, he fell like a fish out of water, skewered into the ground by a fisherman, while Zhou Tong prepared to launch a finishing blow to end it all!
“Please spare my life! I can tell you everything; I’ll do anything, just please let me go!”
Under the threat of death, he cast aside his dignity; after finally becoming a Sage, he didn’t want to die in such a humiliating way!
If he previously claimed he could restore Chen Ju just to buy time, now he was completely subdued, no longer daring to play any tricks!
“Then, you have at least three things to tell me!”
As Zhou Tong said this, it left the opponent in hesitation; three things meant three major secrets, and this was no joke.
Zhou Tong put away his killing intent and casually produced an hourglass.
“When time’s up, your head will roll; do you understand?”
