Infinite Terror: Infinite Reversal

Chapter 250 Tearing

Zheng Zha has clearly gone berserk... Perhaps only by throwing away his knife can I gain the upper hand on this track.

The thought flashed through Mu Xiang's mind, and he couldn't help but chuckle. He left behind several swirling moonlight blades and used the force to fall downwards.

Seeing that his sword strike had failed, Zheng Zha roared and lunged down from the height, his six arms outstretched. Dark red battle aura surrounded all six of his arms, and even the Branch of Destruction was surrounded by rings of battle aura.

It seems Zheng Zha unconsciously chose the fighting style most suited to the Asura race... the red flames have become an afterthought. This is not a fighting style suitable for the vampire race, much less for Zheng Zha.

"You want to fight hand-to-hand? Fine!" Mu Xiang laughed loudly. He kicked the broken wall and flew upwards, leaving only a section of the outer wall that crashed down with immense force.

The building had been cut in half, and the section on the front that had been hit was completely reduced to fragments. Mu Xiang estimated that if he were to go berserk and exchange a few blows, the entire building would be demolished.

As the moon hummed, several beams of light swept out, their target not Zheng Zha, but the Branch of Destruction in his hand. Zheng Zha roared, gripping his greatsword in one hand, and swept it horizontally without any fancy moves, annihilating several beams of moonlight in mid-air.

Mu Xiang had been waiting for this sweeping attack. Just as the two were about to collide, Ji Yue once again pointed into the air, her blade completely blocking the greatsword. Then, using this opportunity, Mu Xiang flipped backward, now hovering above Zheng Zha. The next moment, Ji Yue returned to his back, and Mu Xiang stomped down.

Zheng Zha was stepped on by Mu Xiang, but his head was not injured. His physical strength was greatly enhanced in this state, and his huge body only sank down. Even so, being suppressed by Mu Xiang, who was so small that he could be grasped with one hand, made his rage and killing intent intensify. He roared and swung his arm to strike upwards.

Mu Xiang's eyes were blank. In his eyes, Zheng Zha's movements were fast, but there were still many gaps. Although Zheng Zha was strong, he was still a bit lacking when it came to going head-to-head with him!
With a slight movement, Mu Xiang bypassed Zheng Zha's five-armed encirclement at a tricky angle. As for the hand holding the Branch of Destruction, judging by its length, if Zheng Zha wanted to touch Mu Xiang, he would probably have to hit him from above.

Mu Xiang placed a palm on Zheng Zha's chest, though this was only an estimated location. Given Zheng Zha's enormous body after his Asura Transformation, pinpointing the exact spot would be the most troublesome part. Limitless sword energy erupted from his palm, the fine sword energy tearing apart the flesh of Zheng Zha's chest.

After making contact, Mu Xiang confirmed Zheng Zha's current state... His Asura Battle Body collapsed, but it did not revert to its original flesh and red flames; instead, it degenerated into another kind of flesh and blood.

The flesh and blood of the Asura race.

The Asura Transformation is considered an innate ability of the Asura race. Although it cannot compare to the unity of form and spirit in the Asura Battle Body, its boost to combat power is still considerable. It is the simplest and most direct method that requires no comprehension. Degenerating from the Asura Battle Body into the Asura Transformation is certainly not a good thing… it's like falling from a tall tree into a deep valley.

Fortunately, the Asura clan's blood essence didn't have an advantage in cultivation level compared to Zheng Zha's, so calling it possession would be an exaggeration. However, it's undeniable that Zheng Zha experienced a premature instance of genetic chaos…

Zheng Zha's ferocious face moved, and his three intertwined mouths let out a deafening roar, while his six arms simultaneously clasped together in front of him.

"Are you trying to hug me to death?"

Mu Xiang sneered, his sword energy momentarily halting, but Zheng Zha's massive body was sent flying uncontrollably. Simultaneously, Mu Xiang twisted his body and grabbed both of Zheng Zha's arms. The other four hands instinctively reached for Mu Xiang, but before they could touch him, Mu Xiang swung Zheng Zha around.

At this moment, Mu Xiang was below, roaring and exerting his strength; Zheng Zha was hanging upside down in the air, trying his best to break free. Just as he was about to spew out red flames, a red light flashed in Mu Xiang's eyes, and two scorching heat beams shot out, slamming into Zheng Zha's face.

Once Mu Xiang's attack was blocked, Zheng Zha lost his chance to break free. Mu Xiang swung him over his shoulder and slammed him down.

Zheng Zha smashed through ten floors, his massive body landing at a speed invisible to the naked eye. But before he could get up, Mu Xiang descended with a gust of wind, stomping on Zheng Zha's neck. The immense force caused Zheng Zha to roar in pain, three streaks of red flame bursting from his three mouths.

Zheng Zha's entire body tensed, shaking off Mu Xiang and forcibly sitting up. But before he could grab Mu Xiang back, Mu Xiang stepped on his knee and swept a powerful blow, striking Zheng Zha's chest.

This move was originally intended to crack Zheng Zha's skull, but given the vast difference in their sizes, even the werewolf-form Overlord looked like a child compared to Zheng Zha, let alone Mu Xiang. Therefore, the Golden Wind and Willow Elbows could only tear large chunks of flesh from Zheng Zha's chest. Zheng Zha cried out in pain, and his six arms shot out again, grabbing straight at Mu Xiang. Judging from the stance, it seemed he intended to crush Mu Xiang.

Instead of retreating, Mu Xiang advanced, pointing his left hand like a sword. Upon closer inspection, one could see the distorted light and shadow at his fingertips... This was highly condensed Limitless Sword Qi!

The next moment, the finger pierced Zheng Zha's chest. Sword energy erupted, and with a flick of the finger, it pierced right through Zheng Zha's chest, creating another large hole.

Mu Xiang didn't have time to wonder what would happen to Zheng Zha if another hole was opened. He got up, flipped over, and stood about ten meters away.

Zheng Zha's massive body rose straight up from the ground. Aside from the pain he had just endured, these attacks seemed to have no effect on him. The dark red battle aura surrounding him erupted, and the Branch of Annihilation shot out first, aiming straight for Mu Xiang's head; his six arms, surrounded by battle aura, expanded again, like six roaring red dragons, pressing down fiercely on Mu Xiang!

Mu Xiang turned his head slightly, flicked his left hand, and sent the Branch of Destruction flying, piercing through the wall and disappearing into the distance; while he himself stood still, watching Zheng Zha press down on him.

Zheng Zha was using the Asura Battle Body for the first time, and his method seemed to have gone wrong, which is why he went berserk and transformed into the vengeful ghost form of the Asura Transformation... Mu Xiang's assessment was that he had taken a narrow path. Although his fighting style was more ferocious, the actual threat he posed was much smaller than before.

If Zheng Zha uses the Asura Battle Body to enhance his physical body and energy control, thereby controlling the red flames in battle, then his combat power will be greatly improved; but if he forgets the techniques of the red flames and only uses his Asura-transformed body to fight hand-to-hand, then he is crippling himself!

The higher one's level, the easier it is to compensate for one's weaknesses with a particular skill or technique; however, the more difficult it is to surpass someone who uses their strengths to compensate for their weaknesses. Even Zheng Zha, the clone from the original work, only reached the level of Zheng Zha in the fourth level of destruction when he reached the fourth level of high-level cultivation, and his nerve reflexes were even slower.

At this moment, Zheng Zha's hope of overwhelming him with power through the Asura Transformation was nothing but a pipe dream... no, he should have been unconscious by now. Even if a genuine legendary Asura clansman were here, using the Asura Transformation or even the Asura Battle Body, Mu Xiang would tear him apart!

Zheng Zha tried to use all six of his arms, but Mu Xiang caught them with both. In a flash, he was in front of Zheng Zha, his hands digging deep into Zheng Zha's shoulders. The next moment, amidst Zheng Zha's agonizing roar, Mu Xiang tore off all six of his arms simultaneously.

Before Zheng Zha could grow a new arm, Mu Xiang's hands reached into the hole that had just been pierced by the sword finger...

"die!"

With a loud crack as flesh tore apart, Zheng Zha, in his Asura Transformation state, was lifted up by Mu Xiang and torn in two!

"Stop, the battle is over." A voice rang in Mu Xiang's and Zheng Zha's ears at the same time. Mu Xiang, who was about to tear it apart again, and Zheng Zha, who was about to forcibly regrow limbs, were both stunned.

The hints of hostility have been eliminated.

At the same time, the killing intent and rage in Zheng Zha's consciousness completely dissipated, as if erased by someone. The flesh and blood of the Asura clan suddenly decayed, turning into withered red flames that fell away, revealing Zheng Zha's original body.

Perhaps he just happened to avoid it, because Zheng Zha's body was originally unharmed... The only problem was that his clothes were gone.

Zheng Zha, naked, fell to the ground and looked at Mu Xiang with a bewildered expression.

The spot where Mu Xiang had been gripping had vanished into red flames, leaving his hands empty. He looked at Zheng Zha on the ground, a strange expression on his face.
