Traveling across the globe for the first time

Chapter 960 Breaking the Divine Needle
Fang Ping also realized that something was wrong with the treacherous Emperor Ji. This old guy was too calm. If he were really anxious, he should have rushed over regardless of everything, instead of being there in a helpless rage like this.

Fang Ping gritted his teeth and said, "That old silver coin is too cunning! Doesn't he love to act? Well then I'll help him with his makeup and leave some marks on his face."

He had already blinded the other person in one eye, and it seems he wasn't satisfied yet.

Zhang Haoran said calmly, "It's not so much about being insidious, it's just a matter of each person having their own abilities!"

If we really don't realize it and others turn the tables on us, then it's because we're not capable enough.

Alright, enough talk, words won't work, let's get the big guns ready!

He then looked at Tianbi and the others and said seriously, "Tianbi, Zhenhai Envoy, Zhushen Envoy, Luantianwang, Zhentianwang."

You five! Just make a token appearance later, conserve your strength, and prepare for close combat.

Remember! Give it your all! But don't push yourself too hard. If you feel you can't keep up, step down and let someone else take your place.

I'm not sure what level of strength the treacherous emperor has regained, so everyone must be careful.

Especially Senior Tianbi, you must not be careless. Your responsibility is to intercept the first wave and test the opponent's true strength.

The great battle has only just begun, and I don't want anything unexpected to happen to any of you.

Alright, everyone get ready!

He waited a while longer, sensing that everyone's ultimate moves were almost ready, and suddenly roared, "Now! Kill them all!"

Zhang Haoran launched the first attack, wielding the Blood Shadow Sword and unleashing a massive sword beam.

"Zheng!"

This time, the sword light was exceptionally dazzling, radiating golden light and looking extremely powerful. The massive sword energy gave people an extremely sharp feeling, as if it could penetrate everything in the world. This was a killing move made by combining the Overlord Sword Path with the Law of Metal.

In reality, this sword beam was an illusion. It looked extremely powerful, but its actual power was not increased much. It was just that the sound and light effects were more impressive.

He was using the golden light to conceal his true trump card.

What was truly deadly was the inconspicuous silver needle that followed the sword's edge.

In order to break through the opponent's turtle shell, he used the barrier-breaking needle this time, which was specifically designed to break through the formation and all energy protection.

We're planning to take advantage of the fact that the opponent hasn't recovered to their peak condition and focus our strength to give him a good beating.

He upgraded a total of ten barrier-breaking needles. He used one on Hongkun before, and the effect was very good. Now he has nine left.

He decided to use another barrier-breaking needle to break through the opponent's defenses.

Otherwise, if Emperor Ji really recovers to his peak condition, it will be difficult to fight him.

Zhang Haoran now realizes that his judgment was wrong; at his peak, the Human Emperor should have been a sixth-tier powerhouse.

He usually pretends to be weak so that other emperors can't see his strength and dare not attack him. His displayed blood energy is only over 9000 million calories.

Now that the opponent has been severely injured by the Great Dao Universe and his strength has dropped to the fifth level, we absolutely cannot allow him to recover.

"boom!"

The enormous golden lightsaber slammed into the light barrier, creating a large ripple. The golden law was incredibly sharp, and combined with the overwhelming power of the Overlord Sword Path, the resulting impact was not to be underestimated.

Zhang Haoran was a key target of the treacherous Emperor Ji. As soon as the sword light struck the light barrier, it was met with a powerful counterattack. A wave of light flowed across the protective light barrier, and most of the blood and energy gathered there.

"boom!"

A powerful counterforce erupted, instantly shattering the golden sword energy. Countless fragments of sword energy shot out in all directions, riddling the following attacks with holes.

The Law of Metal was too sharp and emitted a dazzling golden light, severely affecting the other party's perception.

Unbeknownst to the treacherous Emperor Ji, a tiny silver needle was rapidly approaching from within the golden light, the aftershocks of the collision having no effect on its forward speed.

The Breaking Needle can break through all energy defenses, so it will not be affected by these energy impacts.

It pierced the protective light barrier silently, and mysterious runes lit up on the silver needle, exuding an ancient and profound aura.

This change immediately alerted the treacherous Emperor Ji.

"Oh no, we've been tricked!"

A tremendous sense of crisis washed over him, making his hair stand on end.

However, by then it was too late for him to discover the barrier-breaking needle.

All the runes lit up, and the silver needle thrust forward, easily piercing through the light barrier.

next moment!
With a loud bang, the protective light barrier burst open like a bubble.

"kill!"

When everyone saw that the protective light barrier had indeed shattered, they were overjoyed.

History repeated itself, with the deadly moves of dozens of superstars arriving almost simultaneously.

Sword beams, blade energy, spear shadows—all sorts of deadly moves came crashing down at once.

Because the protective light barrier shattered, the Emperor Ji suffered a backlash of qi and blood. Zhang Haoran timed the attack too precisely, catching him off guard once again. He could only barely dodge some attacks aimed at vital points, but most of the killing moves did not miss.

Boom boom boom!
A series of explosions rang out, and golden blood was scattered in the void.

A huge black hole was blasted into the location where the Human Emperor was, and he was completely engulfed by various killing moves.

Zhang Haoran roared, "Don't stop! Keep hitting me!"
"Your attacks must not cease until you witness the omens of the Emperor's demise!"

Zhang Haoran did not become complacent after his successful sneak attack.

He calmly commanded, "Break Six and Break Seven Heavenly Kings, use all lock-on attacks, don't be afraid of the backlash from mental energy."

The strongest shall prepare themselves and proceed according to plan.

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhang Haoran's body trembled, and a powerful sword intent soared into the sky. A radiant will that should not exist in this world bloomed, and all sorts of bizarre and wonderful scenes appeared around him.

The next moment, a six-inch-long crystal sword slowly rose from above. Golden light danced on the silver sword, making it look exquisite and exceptionally beautiful.

Zhang Haoran really went all out this time, directly sending the sword spirit to descend upon the Three Realms.

You must understand that the Sword Soul is his foundation, even more important than the Origin Dao. It is something that cannot be refreshed even by resurrection. If anything goes wrong, he will be devastated and become mediocre.

"Buzz!"

The sword spirit was extremely excited to be able to descend upon the Three Realms, and circles of immortal radiance rippled outwards.

As the saying goes, the more beautiful something is, the more dangerous it is.

This small sword, which looks like it's made of crystal, actually has a sixth-tier killing power.

The surrounding space became even more solid under the illumination of the immortal light. Attacks that could have created a black hole could now only create a spatial rift. Moreover, the killing moves unleashed by everyone became more durable under the golden light. Even the most instantaneous killing moves could last for several more breaths before disappearing.

This is equivalent to giving everyone a group buff, making their attacks last longer.

Of course, Zhang Haoran manifested the Immortal Sword Soul in the outside world not to buff everyone, but to guard against the Human Emperor Ji's desperate act of launching a large-scale mental attack.

This also adds an extra layer of protection to everyone's targeted attacks.

If the treacherous Emperor Ji wants to extinguish everyone's spiritual power, he will attack using his sword spirit body.

With the current strength of Emperor Ji, if he were to be directly struck by the sword spirit, he would definitely suffer permanent damage.

The sword soul's true form is different from the sword intent; it is not limited by Zhang Haoran's cultivation level and can unleash the power of a sixth-order being.

However, sword spirits can only kill things that have no physical form, such as spiritual energy. They are not very effective against the physical body, so they cannot be used directly for offense.

Zhang Haoran manifested a sword spirit, both to guard against a sneak attack and as a form of deterrence.

As long as everyone can keep launching lock-on attacks, I believe that the treacherous emperor will not be able to hold out for long.

Once again, they dealt a heavy blow to the Emperor in a head-on attack, greatly boosting everyone's confidence, and they all began to unleash their ultimate skills with all their might.
"Haha! You treacherous Emperor Ji! You've finally met your match! Take this Great Sun Divine Fist from me!"

The usually low-key Prince Qian also used his trump card at this time.

Seeing the once high and mighty emperor being beaten so badly by them that he had no chance to fight back, the last bit of fear in his heart disappeared.

They actually started calling the other party a treacherous emperor, just like martial arts practitioners do.

"You bastard! When I was punished to become the guardian of the spring, you were part of it too."

"Take this God-Splitting Claw!"

Shi Po was an unruly person, and he found it very satisfying to be able to beat up the emperor. He then unleashed a series of deadly attacks.

However, he did not use the Northern Emperor Blade to amplify his attack, which suggests that he was planning to hold back and use it to his advantage at a crucial moment.

Arrogance doesn't mean he's brainless, and a brute can't cultivate to the peak of the eighth level.

The only dog ​​that didn't launch an attack barked angrily, "Woof woof woof! Who are you calling a bathhouse attendant?"

The spring guardian, who was initially very excited, was rendered speechless by the celestial dog. "It's just an insult, what does it have to do with you?"
By the way, the term "dog" probably originated from the Emperor. If you're so capable, go find the Emperor and settle the score!

Shi Po's words are not wrong. With the madman's temper, he always finds something to do. Ordinary people would not dare to make up stories about him. Only the Emperor could spread so many insults about dogs.

The tengu knew that now was not the time for infighting. It was seething with anger and pushed its Great Devouring Divine Skill to its limit. A vortex appeared in its mouth, swallowing all the aftershocks of the explosion.

This is not a difficult task for the Tengu; on the contrary, it is very nourishing, as he can digest any energy that he can swallow.

After consuming several waves of energy, it even let out a burp, and a golden light flashed across its body, indicating an increase in its aura.

The aftershocks of the battle between dozens of Heavenly Kings and Emperors were practically a sacred place for it to cultivate.

"Wang Wang Wang!"

The Heavenly Dog barked a few times, its eyes gleaming as it stared at the treacherous Emperor Ji, hoping he would launch a counterattack. The Emperor's blood and energy were a great tonic for it.

As long as you don't overeat, you can reap considerable rewards.

However, under the combined attack of everyone, the treacherous Emperor Ji was beaten extremely badly. Let alone fight back, he is now having a hard time even protecting himself.

Cracks kept appearing on the golden body, and countless drops of blood were scattered into the void.

The key point is that the treacherous Emperor Ji dared not release his qi and blood again, and instead erected a protective light barrier.

Who knows if Zhang Haoran still has the Divine Needle that breaks the barrier? If he is hit by another backlash of qi and blood and suffers a beating while completely unprepared, he will be close to death.

The treacherous emperor can only use all his vital energy to strengthen his golden body and increase his defense.

His fists swung like wheels, unleashing a powerful burst of energy that shattered the incoming attacks.

However, two fists can't fight four hands. There were too many attacks, and some of them would inevitably land on him, leaving him covered in blood and gore.

These attacks included not only attacks on vital energy, mental energy, and fundamental energy, but also all sorts of other chaotic Dao characteristics, leaving him completely overwhelmed.

What frustrated Emperor Ji the most was that everyone else was desperately unleashing their ultimate moves to try and inflict more damage on him, while Zhang Tao and Li Zhu's attacks remained unchanged.

He really wanted to yell at the two of them: "Can't you two change your attack method?"
Even if it means I'm seriously injured, I don't care. Their methods are just too disgusting.

Zhang Tao was constantly using the teachings of the Great Dao to mislead the perception of the treacherous Emperor Ji. Most of the way those killing moves hit him was thanks to Zhang Tao.

In such a chaotic battlefield, a martial artist's intuition is extremely important. Often, an attack that cannot be sensed by sight or mental power will be reacted to by the martial artist's intuition first.

Zhang Tao often misled his senses. Sometimes, he would feel that there was nothing in a dangerous place, and some deadly moves would be right in front of him, but he would not sense the danger. By the time he realized it, he would be a step too late.

This greatly reduces the margin for error for the treacherous emperor. What often brings him a great sense of crisis is the attack of the Six Heavenly Kings, while he cannot sense any real danger from the truly threatening killing moves.

Faced with countless attacks, he couldn't distinguish them one by one, which is why he was repeatedly hit and overwhelmed by the crowd.

And Li Zhu goes without saying!

That guy had his eye on his imperial destiny. Even though he had used all of his human destiny to heal his injuries and his own destiny was no longer so fragile, Li Zhu still refused to give up. It seemed like he wanted to steal as much as he could, because if he missed this opportunity, he would never get another chance.

He suspected that his bad luck today was because Li Zhu had stolen too much of his fortune.

The most dangerous thing is that these two are not afraid of his counterattack at all. When their mental strength is injured, they take pills to recover, and when their primordial Dao is damaged, they take cat fruits.

In such a short time, everyone swallowed several cat fruits, and judging from their completely indifferent appearance, they were really planning to stick with him.

Launching a fundamental attack would also greatly deplete the resources of the treacherous Emperor Ji, but if he didn't retaliate, the two would become even more unscrupulous.

Because he was distracted by the two of them, he was constantly being suppressed and beaten.

"Boom boom boom!"

A barrage of attacks rained down.

The treacherous emperor now looks quite miserable; his golden body has been beaten to a pulp, and there is a huge knife scar on his face.

Although he recovered quickly, his newly restored golden body had not been tempered, so its defensive power was significantly reduced and would soon be broken again.

His injuries worsened, and if this continued, his golden body would eventually be destroyed.

Emperor Ji knew he couldn't continue like this. After all, there were dozens of Heavenly Kings on the other side. If he continued to be suppressed, he might really be worn down and killed. He had to launch a proper counterattack to make the other side wary.

"You've gone too far!"

"boom!"

The treacherous Emperor Ji roared, drawing out most of his vital energy and unleashing a punch. The golden fist shadow swept across the void, far more domineering than Zhang Tao's Emperor Fist. The space in front of him was torn open, revealing the aura of the Ninth Heaven.
