This is not surprising.

If Qi Mengdie's all-out attack was like a phoenix rising from the ashes.

That was merely a weak fledgling phoenix...

Chu Tianyao's spear strike truly contained the majestic power of a dragon's roar echoing through the heavens!

The gap between the two sides is comprehensive.

Whether it's combat strength or weaponry and martial arts techniques...

This result is not surprising at all.

Qi Mengdie struggled to her feet; she was almost unable to fight.

"Damn it... am I going to lose...?"

Chu Tianyao's gaze was sharp; he would show no mercy to his enemies.

With a light sway of his battle robes, the second spear thrust out.

The gunshot was incredibly fast, about to pin Qi Mengdie to the ground...

Despair appeared in Qi Mengdie's eyes.

She tried her best to block the Blazing Sun Sword in front of her.

But she knew very well that she couldn't stop it at all!

As expected, the spear's power was astonishing, knocking away the Flaming Sun Sword and piercing straight into Qi Mengdie's chest.

At that moment, a sudden change occurred!

A tremendous force blocked Qi Mengdie's path.

This force completely blocked the attack of the warrior.

An extremely terrifying killing force suddenly exploded out and attacked Chu Tianyao.

At this moment, Chu Tianyao had a feeling of déjà vu.

That day, when facing Qi Mengqiu.

The other party also once possessed a life-saving charm...

This time, Qi Mengdie's life-saving charm is clearly even more powerful!

The moment the killing power exploded, Chu Tianyao even felt the breath of death.

At that time, he was at the sixth level of Qi Refining, facing Qi Mengqiu's Fiery Sun Talisman killing power, comparable to that of a first-level Foundation Establishment cultivator...

At this moment, he was at the sixth level of Foundation Establishment, facing Qi Mengdie's Fiery Sun Talisman killing power, comparable to that of a first-level Golden Core cultivator...

The situations may seem similar, but they are actually completely different!

Not just completely different, they're worlds apart...

The killing power of a Foundation Establishment Realm strike is incomparable to that of a Golden Core Realm strike.

Despite being at the sixth level of Qi Refining, Chu Tianyao was still able to withstand Qi Mengqiu's Blazing Sun Talisman.

Faced with Qi Mengdie's Blazing Sun Talisman, Chu Tianyao, who was at the sixth level of the Foundation Establishment Realm, felt that his life was hanging by a thread!

This sudden turn of events surprised Qi Mengdie slightly.

She immediately realized what was happening!

Overjoyed, she thought, "This is the protective talisman that Master Li Tingting hid on me! Hahaha... Hahahaha...!"

"That scoundrel Chu Tianyao, he ultimately miscalculated one step and can't escape this calamity!"

Qi Mengdie used all her strength to fully activate the already detonated talisman.

She vowed to kill Chu Tianyao!

Faced with a life-threatening crisis, Chu Tianyao quickly made a judgment!

He pushed his combat power to its peak, wielding his spear with incredible skill.

The Overlord's Horizontal Barrier Techniques are all on display!

The dragon's roar resounded once more, accompanied by a murderous aura that soared into the sky.

That was the killing intent forged from a hundred battles of iron armor, condensed from mountains of corpses and seas of blood!

At the same time, Chu Tianyao activated the Yin-Yang Evolution Heaven Technique, almost completely unleashing his potential.

This is truly a case of drinking poison to quench thirst, thus squeezing the body's potential.

Even if it doesn't cause a drop in cultivation level, it will still deplete physical strength...

Simply put, you only have one chance. After that, you'll inevitably run out of steam.

This is a strategy of aiming for a single, decisive victory, or even sacrificing one's life.

In that short instant, his combat power was raised to the ninth level of the Foundation Establishment Realm!

Chu Tianyao's aura suddenly surged, and he simultaneously summoned the Wind Chasing Blade and the Crescent Moon Shield.

The Six Forms of Wind Slash were executed almost instantly and in one smooth motion.

With the help of the crescent shield, a moonlit protective barrier enhanced by blade energy was formed...

With unstoppable momentum, the famous spearman, Zheng Yi, directly confronted the golden core killing power unleashed by the Flaming Sun Talisman!

The moonlight shield formed by the flowing sword energy protected him, minimizing the damage he would receive.

This is already the best Chu Tianyao can do!

So, can a full-force attack from a Foundation Establishment Stage 9 cultivator, who has already achieved a perfect balance of offense and defense, withstand a full-force attack from a Golden Core Stage 1 cultivator?

The answer is, it's impossible!

The terrifying killing power of the Blazing Sun Talisman collided with the spear, causing a noticeable pause.

Approximately one-fifth of its killing power was neutralized in the clash with the spear...

Chu Tianyao's arm trembled violently, and he gritted his teeth!

He suddenly thrust out another spear!

With this shot, Chu Tianyao could once again unleash the destructive power of the Flaming Sun Talisman.

If that's the case, then perhaps one-fifth of the killing power can be eliminated again!

However, he did not do so.

His shot bypassed the blast radius of the Flaming Sun Talisman and aimed directly at Qi Mengdie.

Qi Mengdie never expected that Chu Tianyao could launch such a counterattack at this critical moment...

In order to fully activate the Flaming Sun Talisman, she also exhausted all her physical strength.

For a moment, Qi Mengdie could only stand there dumbfounded.

This Fiery Sun Talisman, after all, possesses a spirit...

Sensing its master was in danger, it automatically diverted some of its killing power to defend itself.

With a loud "boom," Qi Mengdie fell heavily to the ground like a kite with a broken string.

Protected by the Flaming Sun Talisman, she barely managed to block Chu Tianyao's spear...

However, she was still severely injured by the aftershocks of the immense killing force and couldn't get up for a while.

Meanwhile...

Chu Tianyao's Moonlit Blade Shield shattered completely after negating some of the Fiery Sun Talisman's killing power.

The Wind Chaser Blade and the Crescent Moon Shield were completely shattered!

They successfully withstood two-fifths of the Fiery Sun Talisman's destructive power.

In order to protect Qi Mengdie, one-fifth of their killing power was used for defense.

The remaining fifth of the attack struck Chu Tianyao with tremendous force!
