Chapter 2712 - Shattering Strike



Chapter 2712 - Shattering Strike

The eight bagua totems fused together as Chen Yin willed it. Then it began expanding, growing heavier and heavier until it looked like a gigantic mountain. "Turn into dust!"

He casually pointed at Tianming, causing the mountain to fall from tens of thousands of meters above. To specters that were thousands of meters tall, it was akin to having a whole multi-story building fall on them, let alone Tianming. The bagua mountain crushed all the debris that was in its way.

Without another word, Tianming thrust his totems and Grand-Orient Sword upwards. "The heaven-unity resonance made me much stronger! Chen Yin's greatest strength is his third-simulacrum totems. If I destroy them, he'll effectively be crippled!"

Jiang Yong still hadn't joined the fight, so it was a valuable opportunity. Would Tianming really be able to crush a cosmic cartographer at the seventh level of the Order stage? As the mountain came crashing down, Xian Xian's vines, leaves, and a large number of Yin Chens attacked it in an attempt to stop it.

The sea of silver insects, however, was parted from the sheer force and Xian Xian lost a large number of vines and leaves. Ying Huo and Meow Meow's abilities slammed into the mountain, only being able to shake it slightly without moving it away. The sheer power gap between them and a cosmic cartographer wasn't one that could be easily closed.

"Die!" Chen Yin was most adept at turning astral gods into a thin sheet of astrons. Crushing the abilities of Tianming's beasts obviously made him pretty happy with himself. Little did he know that the abilities were only meant to obscure what was to come later: the prime wonder! Gigantic Prime Cosmic Rings slammed into the bagua mountain one after another, beating up a cloud of dust and letting out the scraping sound of metal.

"It's useless! Useless!" Chen Yin laughed.

"That's enough." Tianming's eyes flashed coldly. His six strands of order resonated with the laws of heaven and earth, bringing xeno source into his body and allowing him to use it without first converting it to cosmo force!

The three flameyellow divinity imperatores manifested behind Tianming, looking somewhat like cosmic charts. The imperator of metal stood between the ones of flame and lighting, causing the power in Tianming and his totems to surge. Vapor Lightning Impulse and Flint Infernal Impulse, as well as the Imperealm Sword Formation, also came into play. The Imperator's Mural caused the totem swords to dance freely to match the changes in sword stances. It looked like each one of Tianming’s totem swords was being wielded by someone different.

"Perish!" he howled, swinging the Grand-Orient Sword in concert with the totems at maximum speed.

Jiang Yong already felt that something was off and released his lifebound beasts to intercept. However, Ying Huo's Infernal Haze and Meow Meow's firepower, not to mention Lan Huang, Xian Xian, and Yin Chen, gave their all to block the lifebound beasts with star counts of three hundred thousand. The battle devolved into a chaotic melee!

Tianming had unleashed the strongest move in his arsenal. He flew into the air, surrounded by the decapath era godswords that formed the perfect picture of the Imperator's Mural with his greatsword. His strike blasted past all the debris around them, threatening to unleash its full might on the bagua mountain with the equivalent force of an attack by a cosmic cartographer!

"How could an orderan possess so much power?!" Chen Yin's expression had turned into one of cold fear. The moment he let out cold sweat, the Prime Cosmic Rings wrapped around his bagua mountain, seemingly binding it, and forcefully began to constrict. The friction between totem and divine wonder created blinding sparks.

"Break!" Chen Yin used a bit more force, causing Tianming's rings to shatter into smithereens. The fact that he was able to do that showed how powerful his simulacrum was, yet it seemed to have cost him a third of his attack's force! The fall of the mountain had been intercepted a few times, greatly disrupting its momentum.

And at that moment of weakness, Tianming's full-force attack was completely unabated. His person, his sword, and his totems fused into one, rising like a meteor and colliding with the mountain!

It wasn't just a simple contest of brute force; Tianming's fusion of the three sword strikes, coupled with the full utilization of his totems, allowed for a great deal of flexibility and variety. The power of his sword strike focused on a single point of shattering. With a loud crack, Tianming and his totems burrowed into the bagua mountain!

The surface of the mountain began cracking, then blew apart into eight pieces! The totems reverted from their simulacrum forms back to their original forms. One could clearly see the cracks on the surfaces of the baguas. Two of them had even shattered outright!

Chen Yin had lost more than two-thirds of his combat capability, which came as quite a shock! While the totems would recover in months, unlike dead lifebound beasts, he would be crippled during that time.

"What in the world?!" He simply couldn't believe what was going on as the blood drained from his face. The loss of his totems had caused his cosmoforce to greatly recede. "No! He's just an orderan!"

If Tianming was so strong, why would he bother hiding from them? It could only mean that he had grown much stronger since the time he’d killed Mu Ying. "He must've made some breakthrough! If he's able to destroy my totems while he's still an orderan, does that mean he's the top genius of some other mundus?"

His mind immediately spun into action, yet he still couldn't bring himself to accept the fact that his totems had lost to Tianming.

"Jiang Yong!" He urgently called out for help as Tianming charged toward him right after destroying the totems.
