Chapter 120

Chapter 120: The Martial God’s Avatar!

Two streaks of chilling light slashed across Wu Canglang’s neck almost simultaneously.

A dazzling flash of light flickered, and the top-tier protective armor spiritual weapon that Wu Canglang had been wearing all along was completely destroyed!

At that very instant, two shadows erupted with unprecedented speed, striking in the blink of an eye—so fast that even Wu Canglang had no time to react!

If not for the protective power of this top-tier armor spiritual weapon, Wu Canglang would have already been reduced to a headless corpse!

“This—”

“What kind of power is that?!”

Wu Canglang’s pupils shrank sharply, terror surging wildly in his heart.

An overwhelming sense of crisis engulfed him!

Too fast.

So fast that he couldn’t detect even the slightest warning!

Wait!

That flash of purple light just now… Yes, that’s right, it was the Thousand Miles to the West!

Aside from ‘Su Xiaobai’ himself, there are actually two other people who have secretly learned and mastered the Wu family’s Great Transcendent technique!

And the power these two had just unleashed was strong enough to instantly shatter his top-tier armor spiritual weapon…

One had to understand, this armor had just been repaired after surviving a ferocious beast tide!

Even a Demi-God-level martial commander would have to expend significant effort to completely destroy it!

At the very least, it should not have been shattered so effortlessly with a single strike!

The power of these two individuals… has already surpassed what I can withstand!

“Run!”

Without a moment’s hesitation, Wu Canglang immediately chose to flee the instant his armor shattered!

Yes.

The mighty Wu family, claiming the title of Demi-God Commander, had sent Wu Canglang specifically to kill Su Xiaobai—

And yet, at this moment, he turned and fled like a streak of light!

“Weren’t they just elite martial commanders?!”

“How could they be this powerful?!”

“And judging by the glow of their techniques just now, they were simultaneously using at least a dozen Lesser Transcendent techniques— all mid-to-high tier!”

“What kind of monsters are they?!!!”

Wu Canglang was screaming internally in terror.

He had thought today’s battle would be an easy one-sided massacre.

But he never imagined that he would be the one getting crushed instead!

In just an instant—before he could even blink—his top-tier armor spiritual weapon was destroyed…

How am I supposed to fight this battle?!

Wu Canglang made his decision in a split second.

When he bolted, everyone was too stunned to react—including the Wu family’s martial commanders.

All they saw was the sudden disappearance of two black-cloaked figures, surrounded by a familiar purple glow of the Thousand Miles to the West—

And before they could even cry out in shock, their Demi-God Commander, Wu Canglang, turned and fled!

Everyone was dumbfounded, completely unaware of what had just happened.

Even the newly appointed governor looked utterly confused.

“Elder Canglang!”

Wu Honghe, who had been right beside Wu Canglang, was the first to react to his retreat.

The moment he realized Wu Canglang was fleeing, his expression changed drastically.

Almost instinctively, he decided to follow suit…

But it was too late.

The shadow’s longsword had already pierced mercilessly through his forehead!

Whoosh!

Suddenly, a searing red flame erupted out of thin air—like a raging sun descending upon the world.

In an instant, it engulfed all the Wu family martial commanders!

This was the Lesser Transcendent elemental technique—Burning Heaven Flame!

Su Xiaobai himself had never used it, but his shadow frequently used it in the wilderness to hunt monsters…

Any living being touched by these flames would be reduced to ashes in an instant!

The Wu family martial commanders were no exception.

Before they could even let out a scream, they, along with their armor and spiritual weapons, were completely consumed by the inferno!

The firestorm appeared high above Su Xiaobai’s villa, radiating such intense heat that it could be felt clearly from ten kilometers away—

A testament to its sheer destructive force!

However, beneath this apocalyptic blaze, Su Ling’er and Xiao Bai Long remained completely unharmed—

As if existing in an entirely separate world.

Within a ten-kilometer radius of Base 15, countless people witnessed this terrifying scene—

A sea of flames engulfing the sky, resembling the end of the world!

One shadow wielded Burning Heaven Flame, annihilating the Wu family’s martial commanders.

The other shadow unleashed Qiankun Technique, Heavenly Mechanism Step, Soaring Sky Transformation, Thousand Miles to the West, and every other Lesser Transcendent technique it had learned—

And in the blink of an eye, it pursued Wu Canglang with relentless attacks!

At first, Wu Canglang barely managed to defend himself.

But he soon realized— to his despair— that he was no match for this black-cloaked figure!

His opponent was too strong.

Every strike carried power far beyond his own.

Their attack speed, reaction time, and movement technique were all at an unfathomable level.

A deep sense of hopelessness welled up within him.

With no other option, Wu Canglang activated a Blood-Burning Technique, temporarily unleashing his full potential, nearly reaching divine-level strength.

However—

To his horror, he found that he could only repel the shadow’s attacks—

Not even injure it!

“Damn it!!!!”

“Why does he have so many defensive techniques?!”

“Gang Qi, Shield Armor—”

“Is he a monster?!”

In utter despair, Wu Canglang crushed the Life Talisman given to him by the Wu family’s ancestor!

He only had one such talisman, and he had never intended to use it unless absolutely necessary…

Once broken, it would create a barrier personally set by a Martial God’s Avatar, and simultaneously summon a projection of their spirit!

Wu Canglang had been reluctant to use it—

Because doing so would signify that he had encountered an unsolvable crisis…

It would greatly diminish his standing in the ancestor’s eyes.

If he had been up against a divine-level opponent, using the Life Talisman would be understandable—

But to be forced into using it against an elite martial commander?

The humiliation was unimaginable!

But he had no choice—his life was at stake!

The Life Talisman shattered—

A translucent barrier immediately enveloped Wu Canglang.

The shadow’s attack struck it, causing a tremor—

But it did not break.

“Stop this!”

At the same time, a spiritual projection materialized beside Wu Canglang.

A man in a regal purple robe, exuding an overwhelming aura of dominance, appeared—

The sheer pressure of his presence spread across Base 15, sending chills down the spines of both warriors and ordinary citizens alike!

The new governor trembled in fear.

“A Martial God’s Avatar…!”

Reaching the level of Martial Commander meant transcending one’s physical form.

But reaching Martial God’s Avatar was yet another leap in evolution.

Standing before a Martial God’s Avatar felt like standing before a deity—

Which is why they were called ‘gods’ among humans!

“Ancestor, save me!”

Wu Canglang cried out in despair.

But the Martial God’s Avatar’s arrival did nothing to deter the shadow.

A shadow felt no fear.

It did not recognize threats.

It only followed orders.

Its mission was to kill Wu Canglang.

So Martial God’s Avatar or not—It meant nothing.

In just three seconds, the shadow unleashed over a hundred sword strikes—Shattering the protective barrier through sheer force!

Under the enraged roars of the Wu family’s Martial God’s Avatar—And Wu Canglang’s final scream of despair—The shadow severed Wu Canglang’s head.

The moment Wu Canglang died—The Martial God’s Avatar’s projection collapsed.

Far away, within Base 88’s Otherworld base, the Wu family’s Martial God’s Avatar let out a furious roar:

“Boy, I will kill you!”

Back at Base 15—

Su Xiaobai calmly heard the system’s notification:

“Host, all targets have been eliminated!”
