Chapter 698: Chapter 531: Getting Stronger by Getting Beaten?
Xu Gu exerted all his strength to drive the Conquest Soldier Technique.
The Battle Instrument in his hand slashed down first, then a plethora of Divine Artifacts similarly unleashed Divine Light, pressing toward the Crown Prince of Red Lotus.
“Boom!”
“Who dares provoke my son?”
A furious roar echoed.
It unexpectedly transmitted from the endless starry sky.
Some powerful beings could distinctly feel that in the starry sky, a bull-shaped galaxy was actually pressing down in its entirety.
The speed was incredibly fast,
fast to the extreme!
The pressure was overwhelmingly terrifying.
Some strong observers were blinded and had to avert their eyes.
“Break!”
Amidst this angry roar, a talisman condensed in the void, resembling a talisman of the Heavenly Dao.
It radiated thousands of Divine Brilliance.
Forming into a Divine Bull,
it descended onto the Crown Prince of Red Lotus with extreme swiftness like a streak of light.
Just a moment ago, the Crown Prince was at a disadvantage, but in the next instant, his aura soared, his strength elevated again.
He vaguely surpassed Xu Gu.
Xu Gu raised an eyebrow,
“Who exactly are his parents?”
Creator’s Ark responded, “They’re also mythical gods.”
“Especially his father, who was not inferior to some Ancestor Gods back in the day, a truly formidable Divine King.”
It knew everything,
naturally aware of the heavy background of the Crown Prince of Red Lotus.
The Crown Prince was already powerful enough.
His father was even more overwhelmingly strong.
In the Divine Era, Ancestor Gods were of course invincible, and over lengthy epochs, extremely remarkable beings emerged who defied heaven’s will. Although they achieved the power of Ancestor Gods, their strength wasn’t much weaker.
They could barely be counted as beings of the same level.
Such beings became Divine Kings.
The father of the Crown Prince of Red Lotus was such a Divine King, once occupying vast territories, living in utmost freedom.
“Indeed.”
Xu Gu understood that if the background were too insignificant, it wouldn’t cause such upheaval.
“But,” Xu Gu laughed, “this still isn’t enough.”
He flickered, his form flashing as he activated the Freedom Wings. One moment he was millions of miles away; the next, he appeared before the Crown Prince of Red Lotus.
The Black Divine Ring burst forth with black light, like a black hole intending to swallow and suppress that descending talisman.
Meanwhile, Xu Gu again wielded the Battle Instrument, aiming it at the Crown Prince of Red Lotus.
“Shatter!”
At this sight, the Crown Prince’s pupils shrank abruptly, his face drastically changing.
He hadn’t expected Xu Gu to be so fierce.
Nor had he expected that Xu Gu’s “Black Divine Ring” Divine Artifact was so formidable, able to resist the talisman his father had sent down—a weapon with hope to achieve the stature of a Pure Yang Divine Artifact!
In such times, nurturing a Divine Artifact with hopes of becoming a Pure Yang Divine Artifact was almost unbelievable.
Thinking of this, he went all out, gritting his teeth and shattering the Fire-tipped Spear in his hand.
He intended to detonate the Fire-tipped Spear to seek a chance at survival.
“Boom!”
The ensuing battle waves were terrifying beyond measure.
It was as if two suns had exploded.
Blinding brilliance burst forth, unimaginable heat unleashed as if a thousand nuclear bombs detonated simultaneously. Divine Light spread in myriad strands, the void collapsed, time was disrupted.
The scene was shockingly extreme.
In this era devoid of gods, a 5-star Divine Artifact’s explosion wielded power that could practically destroy the heavens.
All strong beings were so shocked their pupils trembled.
And at the explosion’s center, the Crown Prince wore only a smile because he initiated the explosion and fled beforehand, so its power didn’t inflict grave injury.
Nevertheless, he wasn’t entirely unscathed.
One arm was directly blasted apart, his entire body was tattered, blood flowed continuously, and his aura was faint.
Yet,
in his anticipation,
the smoke cleared.
A figure stood calmly, only his clothing slightly torn, but no injuries on him at all, emerging before everyone.
Wow!
Instantly, the scene erupted in commotion.
Everyone was astounded.
Xu Gu was actually unscathed!
“How is this possible!”
The Crown Prince’s eyes widened in disbelief.
The might of the Fire-tipped Spear’s self-detonation should render even an ordinary High Star Extreme King unbeatable!
Even though he escaped in time, he was gravely injured!
Xu Gu, in the explosion’s center, shouldn’t have half a life left, even if not dead!
Yet now, Xu Gu stood there calmly, unscathed.
“You know nothing of my power.”
Xu Gu clapped his hands, and his torn robe restored itself as if new.
He had numerous Defense Artifacts.
After using them to block, the explosion’s power was diminished by countless layers.
Then,
Xu Gu withstood it with his body.
The Auto Man’s body was inherently astonishing in strength.
Moreover, he had comprehended the “Physical” Tao Rules Authority.
Blocking this level of explosion power was incredibly easy.
Especially, Xu Gu discovered that under this horrifyingly immense force, his “Physical” Tao Rules Authority’s purity actually increased.
Indicating,
that the method to enhance the purity of the “Physical” Tao Rules Authority was to endure strikes!
Such a straightforward method.
Prior to this, he hadn’t realized or discovered it.
However, he couldn’t blame himself, as it seemed he had never been struck from beginning to end.
“Care for another round?”
Xu Gu’s lips curled up as he focused on the other Divine Artifacts of the Crown Prince. “Detonate them all, no need to waste time.”
“You!”
The Crown Prince almost spat blood in anger.
Was this how one speaks?
Did he really think these Divine Artifacts were picked up for free?
Each one required unimaginable hardship to forge and nurture, utterly precious.
The Crown Prince took a deep breath.
He could only look upwards to the sky,
hoping his father could save his life.
Perhaps feeling his son’s call or aware of his current peril,
the descent quickened.
