I became a god through frontier slaughter, and I crushed the academy's prodigies!

The pale blue system light screen was visible only to Shen Tian.

[Weapon Name: Floating Pagoda - Thunderclap (Mid-Grade Spirit Weapon)]

【Materials: Void Crystal (main material), Deep Sea Thunder Stone (core), Tier 4 Mutated Ghost Face Cicada Wings】

[Weight: Light as a feather (normal state) / Heavy as a thousand pounds (charged state)]

[Void Concealment: 100% light refractive index; movement is silent and without airflow disturbance.]

[Thunder Magnetic Acceleration: Utilizing the strong magnetic field generated by deep-sea thunderstone, the throwing knife undergoes a two-stage electromagnetic acceleration. The initial velocity exceeds five times the speed of sound, and penetrating power is increased by 300%.]

[Thunderous Purgatory: Upon hitting a target, it instantly releases a million-volt high-voltage current, possessing a "chain reaction" effect.]

"The Floating Pagoda - Thunderclap..."

Shen Tian muttered to himself.

Especially that [Lightning Magnetic Acceleration].

The original Thousand Blades of the Floating Pagoda relied on the propulsion of mental energy, which was fast but had its limits.

Now we have electromagnetic acceleration.

This is no longer just about throwing knives.

These are thirty-six miniature electromagnetic cannons!

"roar--!!!"

A foul stench filled the air.

The five-meter-tall iron-armed ape, its enormous fist accompanied by a whistling wind, was less than two meters from the city wall.

Those scarlet eyes were filled with brutality.

Behind it.

Countless strange beasts, like a persistent carbuncle, densely covered the entire wall.

Zhang Yue's eyes were bloodshot.

The sword in his hand was already radiating a fierce aura.

Even if I die, I'll take someone down with me!

"Now."

Sizzle sizzle—!!!

A sudden crackling sound of electricity filled the air.

The thirty-six dark blue flying knives hovering in front of Shen Tian suddenly shrank.

It's like a spring compressed to its limit.

The air around the blade was instantly distorted by the terrifying high-voltage electromagnetic field.

Because it's too fast.

As we approached, the sounds were left behind.

Zhang Yue only felt a blue afterimage flash before his eyes.

Followed by.

puff!

The arrogant iron-armed ape froze in mid-air.

At its brow.

A small, charred hole appeared.

Even the skull, which was as hard as iron, instantly vaporized under the high temperature.

Not just the area between the eyebrows.

throat, heart, dantian...

For an instant.

Seven or eight bloody holes burst open on its body at the same time!

This is the terror of [Lightning Magnetic Acceleration].

As long as Shen Tian's mental power can keep up.

A throwing knife can pierce a target dozens of times in 0.01 seconds!

But it's not over yet.

The blue streak of light continued its trajectory even after piercing through the Iron-Armed Ape.

It looks like a string of candied hawthorns.

Puff puff puff puff puff—!

The series of dull, cracking sounds sent chills down one's spine.

The dozen or so strange beasts following behind the Iron-Armed Ape didn't even have a chance to react.

His body exploded instantly!

Thunderous Purgatory Special Ability Triggered!

A million volts of high-voltage current is released instantaneously within them.

The blood evaporated instantly.

Those enormous bodies looked as if they had been stuffed with explosives.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Blood and flesh flew everywhere.

And within that blood mist.

The thirty-six "Floating Pagoda Thunder" swords have been completely transformed into the scythe of death.

They intertwined in the air to form an impenetrable net of lightning.

Every time I travel through.

They all generated a burst of blue electric arcs.

The electric current leaped and conducted wildly among the horde of strange beasts.

The beast horde, which was originally crowded together, has now become its greatest weakness.

He was electrocuted.

Ten heads around were caught in the crossfire!

crackling-

Below the city wall.

It instantly turned into a blue pool of lightning.

The smell of burning mixed with the stench of blood rose into the air.

"What...what the hell is this?!"

Zhang Yue also seemed to be struck by a thunderbolt from the Buddha statue.

I stood there dumbfounded.

As a fifth-tier expert, he had seen lightning techniques before.

Lei Wanshan's [Thunder Prison] can also unleash lightning.

But those are all traceable.

However, the lightning before them seemed to appear out of thin air.

Then it exploded with a bang.

It was so fast that even Zhang Yue couldn't catch the trajectory of the throwing knife.

All he could see were streaks of blue lightning refracting erratically through the herd of beasts.

Every refraction.

All of these events were accompanied by the fall of numerous strange beasts.

It's like...

Shen Tian was playing Snake by himself.

And the endless horde of beasts below is his food.

For every person they eat, an entire number will die!

"Gulp."

Lei Wanshan, who was standing next to him, swallowed hard.

He looked down at the low-grade spirit weapon sword in his hand, which he had just upgraded and which he had once cherished.

Suddenly I feel...

It doesn’t smell good anymore.

It's really not appealing anymore.

Compared to Shen Tian's thing, my knife is practically a fire poker!

Is this the true form of a spiritualist?

This is so unreasonable!

[Slayed a Tier 4 alien beast, Iron-Armed Ape, kill points +100]

[Slaying the Tier 3 Corrosive Wolf triggers Thunder Chain, increasing Kill Points by 200]

[Killed...]

In just half a minute.

Thirty thousand has been deposited!

sizzle-

Everyone's gaze was fixed blankly on the terrifying, fan-shaped blank area below the city wall.

Just a few seconds ago.

There was also a massive horde of monstrous beasts, stacked on top of each other in a frenzied climb.

It was a black tsunami that could drive any army to despair.

But now it's completely empty.

And in the heart of that scorched earth.

Thirty-six dark blue throwing knives moved slowly, like breathing, with lingering arcs of electricity still visible on their blades.

They are like a group of elegant yet deadly deep-sea fish.

The visual impact of beauty and destruction coexisting was so striking that it left everyone present feeling breathless.

"Holy crap..."

Lei Wanshan stood next to Shen Tian.

He looked down at the low-grade spiritual weapon in his hand that had just been upgraded and which he had once cherished.

The lightning flowing across the blade was now in front of Shen Tian's thirty-six "Floating Pagoda - Thunderclap" swords.

It was like fireflies competing with a searchlight for brightness.

Lei Wanshan's mouth twitched violently.

At this time.

The one who truly suffered a devastating blow was not Lei Wanshan.

Instead, it was Zhang Yue, the town garrison commander of Fengcheng, who stood at the very front of the watchtower, his body stiff as a stone.

The wind blew by.

Zhang Yue felt a burning pain on his face.

Rather, he understood.

What does it mean to be blind to talent? What does it mean to have eyes but not recognize Mount Tai?

He recalled his evaluation of Shen Tian half an hour earlier.

Those words now felt like resounding slaps, landing hard on his own face.

Crackling.

It wasn't until Shen Tian demonstrated it to him personally that he finally understood.

Only then did he truly believe.

What is true strength?

Zhang Yue felt like his brain was boiling.

Is this guy even human?!

Even if the arrogant Master Guhe of the Heavenly Crafts Bureau were to come in person, he would never have heard of upgrading an S-class weapon into a spirit weapon in an hour!

and……

Looking down at the battlefield below the city, still smoldering.

This power is incomparable to those hastily made, shoddy products!

So-called geniuses.

Is it really possible to be this unreasonable?

Just then.

Shen Tian seemed to notice Zhang Yue's burning gaze.

He slowly turned around.

On that young and excessively handsome face, there was only a slight smile.

They showed absolutely no resentment towards Zhang Yue's previous actions.

"General Zhang, I'm afraid I'll make a fool of myself."

Shen Tian spoke softly.

"Master Shen... Master Shen."

Zhang Yue's voice was somewhat hoarse.

Even the way they address each other has changed unconsciously.

If he was called "Master" before, it was out of respect for Lei Wanshan, and it carried a bit of teasing and politeness.

So now.

This utterance of "Master" came from the bottom of his heart, and even carried an undisguised sense of awe.

As long as your fists are strong enough, as long as you can kill the alien beasts.

Don't tell me you're seventeen.

Even if you're a baby wearing diapers, everyone has to kneel down and call you "Grandpa"!
