Chapter 1900: Sweeping Over Demons (II)

The Demon Prince’s first strike was so smooth that it couldn’t help becoming ecstatic when its black spike reached a few meters away from Zhang Tie. However, Zhang Tie didn’t even release his protective battle qi. That was nothing different than seeking death.

The black spike in the Demon Prince’s hand was not ordinary, but a powerful earth-level immortal outfit, also a golden secret item. Although the black spike looked average, it could easily break through immortal outfits and battle armors, not to mention human bodies. Besides, the black spike had other powerful functions. It could enable the opponent to be weak by absorbing his qi, blood and energy. Additionally, it could transfer the opponent’s qi, blood and energy to his own body as a supplement.

In this case, if the opponent was injured, the Demon Prince would become more and more powerful in the combat. As a result, the opponent would become weaker.

This also explained why the Demon Prince became more powerful than before after killing Ye Guyu and Lord Lanling. It didn’t need any rest or take in a deep breath. To be honest, it was in its peak state.

The black spike targeted at Zhang Tie’s fragile neck and throat. When the black spike approached Zhang Tie, the Demon Prince instantly saw a weird smile on Zhang Tie’s face.

If the Demon Prince had fought Zhang Tie in Infinite Immortal Prison, it would never feel happy about Zhang Tie’s “slow response”, neither would it shorten the distance between it and Zhang Tie so easily and intended to carry out a close combat with Zhang Tie. The Demon Prince didn’t know Zhang Tie’s real terror at all.

Those living beings who were killed by Zhang Tie in Infinite Immortal Prison would never tell the Demon Prince about how unimaginable was Zhang Tei’s physical strength. He was like a supervolcano which would erupt at any time. The only way to prevent itself from being submerged by the supervolcano was to stay far away from the volcano; instead of approaching it; not to mention approaching the steaming crater and looking downside there.

The Demon Prince would realize it soon; however, when it realized it, it was too late...

When it fought a powerhouse like Zhang Tie, one mistake would lead to death. There would never be another opportunity for it to make a new choice.

The Demon Prince’s fatal strike didn’t target at Zhang Tie’s neck, but his heart. When he attacked Zhang Tie’s neck, he stabbed at Zhang Tie’s heart by another black spike silently from another direction.

When he saw the black spike approaching his neck, Zhang Tie slightly tilted his head and avoided it. At the same time, he punched out.

Zhang Tie’s iron fist didn’t aim at the neck of Demon Prince, but its arm which was targeting at Zhang Tie’s heart with a black spike in hand.

Zhang Tie didn’t release his protective battle qi; because he wanted to shorten the distance between him and the Demon Prince to the minimal distance.

The great physical strength of his iron fist plus the inertia of the wing demon could enable his iron fist to be more powerful and destructive in a short distance.

The protective battle qi at the Demon Prince’s arm was relatively more fragile.

Zhang Tie had long predicted all these. He just waited for the wing demon to confront with his iron fist...

When Zhang Tie punched out, the wing demon changed its face immediately. In such a short moment, the wing demon couldn’t stop itself; therefore, it could only gnash its teeth and stab at Zhang Tie’s heart ferociously.

At this moment, the Demon Prince even felt that Zhang Tie’s counter-attack was a bit absurd. It wanted to break Zhang Tie’s heart; however, the opponent wanted to hit its arm. No matter what, it wouldn’t suffer greater loss than Zhang Tie. If Zhang Tie punched at its head, it might defend Zhang Tie’s attack by adopting an emergency measure. As for the arm...

When the wind demon’s black spike almost reached Zhang Tie’s heart, Zhang Tie suddenly put down another arm and clamped the black spike like how a pair of pincer pliers clamped a mosquito. As a result, the Demon Prince couldn’t move his spike even a bit. However, Zhang Tie’s fist had already hit the protective battle qi over the Demon Prince’s arm.

“Bang...” A loud sound reverberated around the entire Deities Plain.

Undoubtedly, the layer of protective battle qi was broken. Before the Demon Prince took its hand back, Zhang Tie had already caught the wing demon’s wrist firmly which was clamping its black spike.

The wing demon was startled. Closely after that, it let go of the black spike; meanwhile, it rotated its wrist and caught Zhang Tie’s wrist firmly too.

It was a counter-measure that Demon Prince used in such a close combat. No matter what tricks and attacking skills would Zhang Tie use in the next, the Demon Prince would not be in the lower hand. Any other powerhouse would take the same response like the Demon Prince on this occasion.

However, the wing demon didn’t know that his response was the second fatal mistake that it had made in the combat between him and Zhang Tie.

As for other supreme-level immortal generals, such a response was correct. However, as for Zhang Tie, its response was accelerating its death.

When the wing demon caught Zhang Tie’s wrist, it started to release its battle qi crazily. It wanted to transfer its battle qi into Zhang Tie’s body through Zhang Tie’s wrist. At least, it wanted to offset the battle qi that Zhang Tie wanted to transfer into its body.

However, amazingly, when it tried to transfer its battle qi into Zhang Tie’s body, it found that its battle qi was isolated by Zhang Tie’s skin as if it was holding an iron plate or a piece of extremely fine metal which could hardly be invaded by people’s battle qi.

‘What the hell!’

The Demon Prince almost cried out. What was more shocking was that Zhang Tie didn’t release his battle qi; neither did he transfer his battle qi into the Demon Prince’s body.

How could the incumbent Dragon Emperor not know how to use such a simple combat skill?

‘Impossible...’

“Good boy...” Zhang Tie said as he grinned towards the Demon Prince.

The Demon Prince didn’t know what trick Zhang Tie was going to play; now that Zhang Tie didn’t adopt this effective attacking skill, it would never show mercy on Zhang Tie. With a fierce fleer, Demon Prince stabbed at Zhang Tie’s eyes with the black spike by another hand after the first unsuccessful strike...

At this moment, many immortal generals in human army felt their hearts almost jump out of their throats. Even Force Emperor was worried about Zhang Tie.

Now that the Demon Prince could kill Ye Guyu and Lord Lanling consecutively, its battle force and reflexes were already the best among supreme-level immortal generals. Even Force Emperor didn’t know why Zhang Tie adopted such a dangerous movement.

At this moment, Zhang Tie finally moved.

He slightly pulled the Demon Prince’s hand towards one side of him. Due to the change of relative positions, the Demon Prince’s body tilted as it failed the second strike.

Closely after that, before the Demon Prince launched out the third strike, Zhang Tie had already launched his fatal strike. The Demon Prince finally understood why Zhang Tie caught its wrist and appraised him “good boy” when it caught Zhang Tie’s wrist...

Rice was good; however, when one ate too much rice, he would die too; because his digestive system couldn’t hold more rice.

Iron wires and steel bars had strong tension and could barely be broken. However, when the strength which was applied to the iron wire or the steel bar surpassed their bearing capacity, the iron wire or the steel bar would be broken. Even steel rails, bridges or edifices would be broken in similar situations.

A truck that could hold two tons of goods would definitely be destroyed if let it carry 100 tons.

All the objects in the world could bear limited stress. So were humans and demons.

Some experienced snake-catchers didn’t need to pinch the location of the heart of a viper; instead, they only held the viper’s tail and quivered it adroitly. In an instant, the viper would feel weak all over and couldn’t move anymore. They didn’t have to use too much force when they quivered the viper. If they beat the viper with the same force, they wouldn’t even kill the viper or even hurt it heavily. On that occasion, the viper might even give you a bite and kill you. Why could they cause the viper to stay still only after quivering its body? Because when you quivered it, the viper’s tendons, bones and muscles couldn’t bear such sharp twists in a short period of time. Vipers couldn’t do such a movement themselves. Now that vipers couldn’t do it themselves, it indicated that their body couldn’t bear the outcome of such heavy twists.

When powerhouse fought each other, they usually depended on their strength, which was the most straightforward and average from of strike!

Even boorish fellows fought each other by strength!

People couldn’t realize off-hand strike by pure strength like battle qi.

Pure strength couldn’t lead to too many brilliant battle skills. Those brilliant battle skills could bewilder people and enhance their attacking efficiency; however, if battle skills couldn’t increase one’s strength, all the strikes would be superfluous and useless.

Strength was pure, ordinary and natural just like air beside everyone and people’s shadow which always appeared with light.

The extreme strength was close to the universal law!

Universal law was right under one’s foot and beside people. Universal law was within reach. Universal law existed with people.

The most powerful one was also the most average. The most average was also the most irresistible.

All the brilliant battle skills and powerful attacking skills became average and exposed their natures in Zhang Tie’s hand.

Now that he was close to universal law, he could certify the universal law with pure strength. Universal law was with him!

After pulling Demon Prince to one side, Zhang Tie pushed and twisted it smoothly like flowing clouds and water without any light&shadow effect. Everything looked peaceful.

However, through the two simplest movements, Zhang Tie transferred his overwhelming force as powerful as the ocean and volcano to its body through the Demon Prince’s wrist. He made full use of Demon Prince’s response and realized the best effect.

It was not a strike, but a transfer!

All the attacking means could be dissolved, intercepted or weakened by protective battle qi except the transfer of pure strength.

When Zhang Tie generated the strength, he transferred it to the Demon Prince’s body at the same time.

It was Zhang Tie’s full strength, plus his current terrifying explosiveness brought by spike shrimps which was hundreds of times greater than his original explosiveness...

Did Demon Prince have such great strength?

Of course not, even after it promoted to a demon emperor.

Did Demon Prince have such great explosiveness?

Neither.

Now that it didn’t have such great strength and explosiveness, it couldn’t bear them. If it had to bear them, it must suffer an irresistible, destructive outcome.

At this moment, the Demon Prince’s protective battle qi, the myriad of secret methods and powerful battle skills, high level became useless. Because Zhang Tie was not attacking it but transferring his pure strength to it. It could never refuse or avoid it. The great strength of Zhang Tie was testing its tendons, bones, blood, meridians, muscle fibers, blood vessels, joints, skin, even guts.

It was bearing the total strength of Six-Armed Demon Emperor, Zhang Tie and the explosiveness from spike shrimps.

The former were added with each other; however, the third aspect should be multiplied by the addition of the former two.

In a split second, the Demon Prince had started to explode from its wrist to its elbow, then its shoulder, chest, lower abdomen, legs, neck and head. Each piece of bone, tendon, meridian, blood vessel, muscle fibers were destroyed by that terrifying strength as they were connected to each other.

It was the most tragic punishment in the world. With the Demon Prince’s earth-shaking wails, its body started to blow up into pieces in the eyes of hundreds of thousands of humans and demon generals inch by inch.

“Bang...” Under the Demon Prince’s wail, Zhang Tie punched through its chest. When his hand came out of the wing demon’s back, it was holding the Demon Prince’s beating heart.

Zhang Tie took his hand back and crumbed its heart into pieces right in front of the Demon Prince...

At this moment, all the humans and demons over Deities Plain were in dead silence...
