Chapter 5672
The burly man didn’t respond, but slowly turned his head, his empty, indifferent eyes locking onto Kai below.
The moment those eyes met Kai’s gaze, a chill ran through him!
An unprecedented sense of crisis descended upon him, making the hairs on his body stand on end!
This feeling was clearer and more direct than when he faced the Soul Devourer!
Kai hadn’t expected that after recovering, the Soul Devourer was far stronger than when he was in the Sixth Heaven, and could even summon such a powerful figure.
“Mr. Chen, be careful! This person…this person is extremely strange!”
Yan Nantian couldn’t help but warn him, feeling an indescribable sense of oppression emanating from the burly man.
Liu Xue also gripped her longsword tightly, her Heavenly Gate Technique activated to its limit, ready to intervene at any moment.
Kai took a deep breath, clearing his mind of all distractions, focusing all his attention on the burly man.
He could sense that this opponent was on a completely different level from the previous Five Fiends!
“Kill!”
The burly man uttered a cold, stiff syllable, like metal clashing against stone.
In the next instant, he moved!
There was no earth-shattering burst of power, no overwhelming demonic energy; he simply took a single step.
But this step seemed to transcend the limitations of space. One moment he was dozens of feet away, the next, that enormous fist, wreathed in ancient aura, was already in front of Kai!
Fast!
Indescribably fast!
Even exceeding the limits of Kai’s divine sense!
Before the fist even arrived, the extremely condensed pressure of the fist already made Kai’s skin sting, and the surrounding air was completely shattered, producing a thunderous airburst.
“So fast!”
Kai was shocked. Without time to think, almost instinctively, he frantically poured the vast spiritual power within his body into the Dragon-Slaying Sword, blocking horizontally!
“Clang—!!!!!”
A deafening sound of metal clashing rang out, as if two divine mountains had collided violently!
An unimaginable force surged through the Dragon-Slaying Sword. Kai felt a sharp pain in his arm; his tiger’s mouth instantly split open, bleeding profusely.
He was sent flying uncontrollably, as if struck by a prehistoric beast, crashing through several massive stone pillars of the main hall before finally slamming into the wall behind him with a deafening roar, kicking up clouds of dust.
“Kai!”
“Mr. Chen!”
Liu Xue and Yan Nantian exclaimed simultaneously, their faces deathly pale.
The glimmer of hope that had just been ignited among the disciples of the Yama Heavenly Sect was instantly extinguished, as if doused with a bucket of ice water.
The Soul Devourer’s lips curled into a cruel sneer, seemingly unsurprised by the situation.
As the dust settled, Kai emerged somewhat disheveled from the dented wall, a trickle of blood escaping his lips.
His internal energy churned violently, and his internal organs were severely shaken.
“Such powerful strength… and that punch just now…”
Kai’s eyes were incredibly solemn. He felt that the punch wasn’t just fast and fierce, but also carried a strange fluctuation of laws, making his body’s reaction seem to be slightly slower the instant he blocked it; otherwise, he wouldn’t be in such a sorry state.
“Time… is it interference from the laws of time?”
A thought flashed through Kai’s mind like lightning.
Seeing that Kai could still stand, the burly man’s empty eyes remained unchanged. He took another step forward, still delivering a simple and direct punch.
This time, Kai was prepared. He shouted, “Time Slowdown!”
He mobilized the power of the origin of time that he had comprehended. An invisible ripple spread out from him, attempting to slow down the flow of time around the burly man.
However, something shocking happened!
The moment the time-slowed field touched the burly man, the profound fluctuation of laws around him rippled slightly.
Kai clearly felt that the time-based power he released was like ice and snow meeting the sun, easily assimilated and absorbed by a higher, more fundamental power?!
No, it wasn’t just absorption!
The burly man’s already lightning-fast fist not only didn’t slow down in Kai’s time-slowing domain, but actually accelerated suddenly!
A barely perceptible, strange luster, as if time were flowing backward, even appeared on the fist!
