Chapter 792: Counterattack!

The outside world was changing, but Chu Liuyue—who was trapped underground—was unaware of this. She didn’t even sense Rong Xiu’s arrival.

In this dark space, Chu Liuyue had already exchanged a few spars with the Heaven-Wrecking Holy Seed. Things were currently at a stalemate.

As this sticky and heavy space was part of the Heaven-Wrecking Holy Seed’s God Realm, it could basically control everything in there.

Chu Liuyue, however, found it extremely taxing to even move in here. In order to execute the same skill as she would in the outside world, she would need to use at least two to three times more force than what was normally needed.

Other people would’ve collapsed by now, but not her. She had too much force stored away in her body. Besides, having reached the intermediate level of her stage five cultivation, her control over force had improved. Hence, she could use it with more ease now.

Gripping the Long Yuan Sword in her hands, she looked at the Heaven-Wrecking Holy Seed across her and muttered under her breath, “It looks like something has happened outside…”

She was initially at a disadvantage in this duel, but the Heaven-Wrecking Holy Seed’s external layer of frost gradually melted away for some reason. This subtle change caused it to weaken considerably.

Having spent so much time with it, Chu Liuyue naturally became very familiar with everything about it and was thus very sensitive to its changes.

As the crystals around the Heaven-Wrecking Holy Seed had been completely absorbed by her, its remaining force wasn’t enough to sustain itself. Hence, it would intermittently absorb force from the outside world to replenish and grow its own force. Its constant supply of force made it even harder for her to take it down, which was why she hadn’t succeeded yet.

However, it no longer absorbed force from the outside world after its layer of frost disappeared. This made Chu Liuyue suspect that something had definitely happened outside. Either way, it was beneficial to her in this situation.

Once again, she raised the Long Yuan Sword and pointed it at the Heaven-Wrecking Holy Seed. “Do you still refuse to admit defeat?”

As a rich force exploded from the Heaven-Wrecking Holy Seed, Chu Liuyue sent the sword flying. “Long Yuan Sword!”

The sharp and cold sword glistened as flames of two different colors intertwined on its blade, emitting a terrifying pressure.

Since this place was completely sealed off, Chu Liuyue didn’t have any concerns that someone might barge in here. Thus, she revealed her trump card.

The sword could be heard zipping across the air. Flames furiously burned as though there were two giant phantoms surrounding the Heaven-Wrecking Holy Seed.

The space around the Heaven-Wrecking Holy Seed began crumbling once more as it swallowed the flames and force in the surroundings and killed them in the spatial turbulence.

That didn’t stop Chu Liuyue from pushing the flames forward though.

The Heaven-Wrecking Holy Seed had no problems dealing with the flames at first, but it gradually found it harder and harder to do so as time passed.

Those two flames were no ordinary fire—one was formed from the force in the water droplet, while the other came from the Heavenly Square Cauldron. If someone were here right now, their jaw would surely drop at the sight of Chu Liuyue—a fifth-stage warrior—forcing the Heaven-Wrecking Holy Seed to this stage.

Knowing that things weren’t going well, the Heaven-Wrecking Holy Seed quickly fled upward. Alas, the two flames followed closely behind it and soon surrounded it.

When the Long Yuan Sword’s sword aura finally caught up to them, it struck down hard.

Boom!

The two forces collided. Rumbling sounds could be heard as the aftershocks spread in all directions, and a crack formed on the ground.

Chu Liuyue narrowed her eyes at the sight, only to see the faint glow from outside beginning to shake. The God Realm started compressing toward her.

Heavy pressure weighed down on her, making her body ache. The speed at which her internal force flowed began to slow down again.

Chu Liuyue fixed her gaze on the Heaven-Wrecking Holy Seed in front of her, only to realize with a start that her flames also seemed to be greatly affected and had gotten much smaller than before. Is this the Heaven-Wrecking Holy Seed’s true power?!

Just as this thought emerged in her mind, the Heaven-Wrecking Holy Seed suddenly emitted a glowing light.

“Run, Liuyue!” shouted Shangguan Jing all of a sudden.

Hearing that, Chu Liuyue retreated backward without hesitation and raised her black shield in front of her at the same time.

Rumble!

The successive fierce impacts shattered her hand that was holding onto the black shield. Although the shield managed to block off most of the impact, a small portion of it still reached her. Blood surged up her chest cavity, and her lips turned a little pale.

The Heaven-Wrecking Holy Seed is much more powerful than I thought! Chu Liuyue pursed her lips as she took a quick glance at the Heaven-Wrecking Holy Seed, which was glowing even more radiantly.

Clearly, it was using the force stored in its own body.

The next moment, the Heaven-Wrecking Holy Seed flew over toward Chu Liuyue. It seemed to have an invisible barrier around it that blocked the sword aura and the flames outside. Everywhere it went, a black spatial crack was left behind.

Chills ran down Chu Liuyue’s back as she racked her brains to think of a countermeasure.

The Heaven-Wrecking Holy Seed soon arrived nearby in front of her, but for some reason, she sensed a hint of mockery and anger coming from it.

A blast of cold wind hit her from behind out of the blue.

Shocked, she turned back to take a look, only to see another Heaven-Wrecking Holy Seed behind her. It was flying straight toward her dantian. By the looks of things, it intended to steal the force in her body.

Crack!

The pure gold armor suddenly cracked.
