Chapter 1638 - 1639: Kill Three Birds with One Stone
Clang!
The Dragon Slayer Sword and the spiked Finger Tiger clashed wildly, erupting in countless golden sparks in the air.
The tremendous force blasted Su Chengyu backward, the overwhelming pressure making him feel a crushing power he hadn’t experienced since stepping into the Nascent Soul stage.
The saying "Brute strength can defeat a thousand techniques" held true in the Warrior Realm, but once a Cultivator reached the Nascent Soul stage, it was no longer absolute. Daoist magic techniques, Nascent Soul incarnations—these could all compensate for their physical weaknesses in significant ways.
Especially for Su Chengyu, who had cultivated the Thunder Resistant Body. Physically, he was no less capable than any Martial Artist at the same level. In fact, with the Thunder Resistant Body’s empowerment, he could even go head-to-head with a Martial God in a direct confrontation.
Yet, despite all these advantages, Su Chengyu could still feel the immense difference in sheer strength between himself and his opponent.
Only now did he truly understand the weight behind the word "Qian Jun" (a thousand catties).
"Heavenly Qi-breaking Five Thunder Technique!"
It was impossible to contend head-on, so Su Chengyu instantly cast a thunder technique to neutralize his immediate predicament.
The instantaneous casting of the Heavenly Qi-breaking Five Thunder Technique reduced its power considerably and was not enough to truly threaten Mo Ningchen. However, it still forced him to divert attention to handle the sudden burst of lightning.
Catching that fleeting moment of distraction, Su Chengyu’s figure suddenly vanished from sight. With a single step spanning a hundred meters using the Shrinking Earth technique, he widened the distance between himself and Mo Ningchen.
