Chapter 1176 - 629: Peak Strike! Slaying the Insect Clan Venerable!
Almost every Insect Clan’s goal for survival is for the Insect Emperor.
Thus, becoming the Insect Emperor’s Guard has become the goal of the vast majority of the Insect Clan.
However, to become the closest guard of the Insect Emperor, one must be at least at the Tenth Realm.
Some outstanding ones have even stepped into the Realm of Venerable.
Clearly, the Insect Emperor’s Guard before us is a supreme genius wielding the Law of Power as their Fundamental Dao, combined with their race’s incomprehensible immense strength, a terrifying force even exceeding Jiang Shu.
Boom!
The chaotic torrent caused by the Panwu Heaven Opening Axe collided unadornedly with the destruction dark point thrust by the Insect Emperor’s Guard with full force.
Time seemed to freeze for a moment.
No sound emerged, only visual annihilation.
The collision point exploded like a cosmic singularity, endless chaotic energy and pure destructive force frantically tore at each other.
A pure dark singularity quickly expanded, devouring all matter and light.
Next came the destructive energy storm exploding in a spherical shape. Space, like fragile paper, was ripped layer by layer, twisting, and ultimately turned into nothingness.
The shield of Venerable Duan Yue was forcibly pushed back dozens of yards by the shock wave.
The platform’s incredibly sturdy alloy surface instantly turned to fly ash. Yu Sha was directly lifted and spat out blood.
Even the Mechanical Clan’s Entropy was severely affected by the aftermath of this pure power showdown, the bluish mechanical body fluctuated violently, sliding far away, the scarlet electronic eyes flashing wildly, clearly re-evaluating Jiang Shu’s danger level.
Zhan Feng and Zhan Yun barely reached the edge of the core region, only to be blocked by this tsunami-like impact.
Zhan Feng’s eyes turned completely red, the Daylight Giant Axe hacked angrily, cutting through the destructive chaos stream pouncing at them.
Zhan Yun gave a clear shout, the Vast Sea Tide Sound Star Pendant gleamed in ghostly blue light, creating a tenacious water wave barrier in front of the two.
As the chaos and darkness at the center slightly dispersed, revealing the core scene, everyone’s hearts tightened.
The massive and ferocious body of the Insect Emperor’s Guard stood frozen in place.
On its nearly indestructible dark gold armor, an astonishing wound pierced directly through its chest and belly.
The edge of the wound appeared terrifyingly chaotic, like it had been forcibly torn from the inside by the endless chaotic torrent.
That mysterious armor pattern had completely shattered, revealing the inside also twisted into fragments, with weird black smoke emanating from the flesh.
And the proud giant gem knife arm had begun to fracture at the point of collision with the chaotic torrent, leaving only half shaking at the arm’s base.
What flowed from the wound was not blood, but a bizarre energy viscous paste seemingly composed of shattered laws and spatial fragments.
Its compound eyes had completely lost their glow, the massive head slightly drooped, seemingly staring at the terrifying wound on its chest and belly.
No struggle, no scream, only a completely dead silence frozen.
It was dead.
The Panwu Heaven Opening Axe, the strongest Great Technique in Jiang Shu’s hand, merged with all of Jiang Shu’s law insights and power erupting in extreme dire straits, its contains the Dao intent of "creating worlds" and "disintegrating and reshaping," forcibly crushed the extreme power that the Insect Clan Venerable was proud of.
Cut open its armor claimed to withstand most of the Venerables’ attacks.
"Huh..."
The Insect Emperor’s Guard’s consciousness seemed to convey the last bit of unbelieving hatred and unwillingness before it completely dissipated, as its gigantic body tilted backward like a collapsing mountain, plunged downwards into the enormous space vortex that devoured everything.
As for Jiang Shu, like a meteor exhausted of all fuel, was flung ferociously by the explosive force, covered in wrecks and blood.
The sleeve on his right arm already turned to fly ash, the Shui Huan Gloves dimmed, the arm’s skin cracked, bleeding profusely, evidently the previous strike beyond limits paid a hefty price.
But the direction he was flung toward was that violently shaking Black Stone.
Buzz!
Just as Jiang Shu’s hurtling figure was about to hit the Black Stone, a silent yet deadly energy beam appeared, as if its trajectory was already calculated, targeting the defenseless Jiang Shu’s back heart like a cosmic cold ice pick.
It was the Mechanical Clan’s supreme genius, Entropy!
It hadn’t participated in the power clash, continuously calculating and waiting.
Executed the lethal blow in the fatal pause when the Insect Emperor’s Guard was slain, Jiang Shu’s power dropped, body out of control, Spirit showing instant slack.
The energy beam compressed to the utmost, no energy leaked, only icy destruction penetrating everything.
The target was to defeat Jiang Shu, stripping him of the Black Stone within his grasp.
"Watch out!"
Zhan Feng’s eyes threatened to split, the Daylight Giant Axe was too far.
Zhan Yun fully urging the Vast Sea Tide Sound, tried to intercept with water wave defense, but the hastily formed barrier was paper-thin before Entropy’s long-planned death strike.
The cold sense of death instantly enveloped Jiang Shu, his soul seemed to tremble.
Jiang Shu let out a howl, eyes filled with desperate madness.
The Taichu Law circulated within him to the utmost, protective dao marks instinctively covering the back heart.
But he didn’t even attempt to defend or dodge, for he knew Entropy’s calculation ability definitely had sealed off all his retreats.
He now had only two options: either to directly traverse back to the Demon Domain.
Or to gamble, risking great injury, even near-death, to acquire that stone.
Splsh!
The cold and sharp energy beam to the extreme accurately tore through the weak defense formed by Taichu Dao Mark, penetrating Jiang Shu’s back without hindrance.
