Chapter 625 - 620: Unable to Withstand a Single Blow

Chapter 625: Chapter 620: Unable to Withstand a Single Blow

With a simple swipe of his fingers, Ning Jiang effortlessly shattered the Extreme Heaven King’s attack. Anyone could see that Ning Jiang held the advantage!

"How can this be?"

The Extreme Heaven King’s eyes narrowed in disbelief. Ning Jiang’s control over his Magical Power was astonishingly masterful. He himself had only recently broken through to the Celestial Martial Realm and was completely incapable of wielding Magical Power with such perfection.

Ning Jiang felt like some old monster who had entered the Celestial Martial Realm long ago and was intimately familiar with its Magical Power.

"Again."

The Extreme Heaven King stomped down and launched another attack.

Immense Magical Power erupted like a surging tide, pressing down with overwhelming force.

"A useless effort."

Ning Jiang shook his head and, with another swipe of his fingers, easily broke the Extreme Heaven King’s attack. Though the King’s assault was terrifying in scale, its power was unfortunately unfocused and too scattered. In contrast, Ning Jiang concentrated his power into a single point. It was like trying to break a sheet of tough leather—a hammer can’t do it, but a single needle can pierce right through.

"I don’t believe it."

The Extreme Heaven King roared. He had endured untold hardships and centuries of bitter cultivation to finally step into the Celestial Martial Realm. ’If I can’t even handle a junior like Ning Jiang, haven’t I just wasted my entire life?’

RUMBLE!

The earth quaked and the mountains swayed as the ground split apart. The faces of the many Martial Artists present paled in shock.

Mountain after mountain shot up from the ground, all converging upon Ning Jiang. Celestial Martial Realm experts controlled the Power of Heaven and Earth; the world for miles in every direction fell under their command.

’So it’s true what they say. A Celestial Martial Realm King has the power to move mountains and fill seas.’

The crowd was deeply shaken.

Lifting a mountain and shattering a mountain were two completely different things. Even an Earth Martial Realm expert could shatter a mountain.

But lifting a mountain required more than ten times the power needed to shatter one. It was like a water vat—easy to break, but it would take at least a thousand pounds of strength to hoist it.

A Heaven-Reaching Realm expert, by circulating their Cultivation, could probably lift a single large mountain. But who among them could lift dozens at once like the Extreme Heaven King?

At that moment, dozens of towering mountains hung suspended in the sky, packing the air so densely that the heavens themselves went dark.

Countless Martial Artists were stunned by the scene.

"Ning Jiang, let’s see if that Treasure Armor of yours can block this! Go!"

With a cold shout from the Extreme Heaven King, the mountains began to fall like meteorites, smashing down toward Ning Jiang. As they descended, the very air was compressed into visible arcs.

Given the terrifying weight of these mountains, combined with their incredible speed, even a Celestial Martial Realm King would be hard-pressed to endure such an impact.

’Forcibly moving mountains is just a waste of Magical Power. What good is that against me?’

A mocking glint appeared in Ning Jiang’s eyes.

He stood his ground, one hand clasped behind his back. With his right hand, he flicked his finger dozens of times in quick succession.

SWISH SWISH SWISH SWISH SWISH...

Streaks of Sword Aura shot out. They started out only thumb-sized, but rapidly expanded in mid-air, ultimately transforming into dozens of brilliant, thousand-foot-long beams of Sword Aura.

The Sword Auras streaked across the sky, their power world-shaking.

With mere flicks of his finger, he shattered every single one of the descending mountains.

"Extreme Heaven King, it’s time for this to end. You will be the first King to fall since my return!"

Ning Jiang’s gaze was indifferent as he strode forward.

"Arrogant."

The Extreme Heaven King felt utterly humiliated. He went berserk with rage, the fury in his eyes threatening to burn everything to ashes.

BOOM!

The entire sky erupted into chaos as one terrifying attack after another blasted toward Ning Jiang. The sheer power made everyone’s hearts pound in terror; they had no doubt that such an onslaught could raze a city of millions.

Yet Ning Jiang simply strode forward, not even bothering to block. He allowed the attacks to close in, but they couldn’t faze him in the slightest.

’The Extreme Heaven King’s weakness is all too obvious,’ Ning Jiang thought. ’He only knows how to blindly unleash his Magical Power, but he has no idea how to condense it. It’s like a pile of loose sand—completely non-threatening. Only when that sand is compressed into a rock does it have any real killing power.’

THUD!

The Extreme Heaven King had attacked frantically dozens of times, yet Ning Jiang answered with only a single punch.

He curled his fingers into a fist, and the faint golden luster of the Celestial Martial Exquisite Armor condensed upon it. As Ning Jiang threw the punch, the entire world seemed to spin behind him, as if all the power for miles around was gathered in that single strike.

BOOM!

The terror of this punch was beyond description. In the eyes of the crowd, only the golden fist remained. It not only shook the heavens but also overwhelmed their very minds. Before the fist even arrived, its terrifying fist intent had already bored deep into everyone’s soul.

Some of the Martial Artists with weaker Cultivation were so affected they began to vomit blood.

Even someone of Su Yuying’s caliber turned pale. The punch wasn’t aimed at her, yet it still made her feel as if she were suffocating.

’How can this young man’s control over Magical Power be so strong? I doubt even the Palace Master could best him in its application!’

"Block it!"

The Extreme Heaven King roared, mustering all his power to erect layer after layer of defenses in front of him. But when Ning Jiang’s punch arrived, his defenses shattered in an instant, as if they were made of paper.

The terrifying Fist Force slammed into his chest. With a loud CRACK, the Extreme Heaven King was sent plummeting like a meteorite.

CRASH! CRASH! CRASH!

His body uncontrollably smashed through one mountain after another. A deep Fist Seal was left on his chest, and several of his bones were broken.

’Oh? He’s actually wearing a piece of Top Grade Treasure Armor.’

Ning Jiang’s eyes flashed. The Top Grade Treasure Armor had absorbed at least half the power of his punch. Otherwise, it might have pierced straight through the Extreme Heaven King’s body. Still, the Top Grade Treasure Armor had shattered under the force of that one punch.

After all, a Top Grade Treasure Armor was something used by Heaven-Reaching Realm experts. Naturally, it couldn’t block a punch from Ning Jiang.

But the Extreme Heaven King had only just entered the Celestial Martial Realm; his foundation was too shallow. It was obvious he wouldn’t possess a Celestial Spirit Artifact.

"AHH! I won’t accept this!"

The Extreme Heaven King roared and was about to shoot back into the sky. But Ning Jiang gave him no chance to recover. In a single step, he appeared above the King. A Heaven-Reaching light erupted from the sole of his foot as terrifying Magical Power burst forth, forming a giant foot a thousand feet wide that came stomping down.

BANG.

The giant foot had not yet landed, but the ground in a two-mile radius around the Extreme Heaven King collapsed, forming a massive footprint.

"Break!"

A brilliant light flared from the Extreme Heaven King’s body as he unleashed a force like an exploding meteorite. But no matter how he struggled, it was useless against Ning Jiang’s unstoppable stomp.

The Extreme Heaven King was stomped deep into the ground. The earth in a two-mile radius caved in, creating a crater a thousand feet deep.

HISS...

Countless Martial Artists gasped in utter disbelief.

What an imposing figure the Extreme Heaven King was!

Upon entering the Celestial Martial Realm, he had instantly become one of the titans of the Six Eastern Provinces. Besides the seven veteran Kings, who else in the Six Eastern Provinces could possibly be his opponent?

And yet, before Ning Jiang, he was as fragile as an ant, unable to withstand a single blow.
