Staying Alive Cautiously in the Celestial Realm and Becoming the Strongest-Chapter 592 - : Charging through the Tower (Complete)

Chapter 592: Chapter 592: Charging through the Tower (Complete)

Five weapons, five choices.

Wang Chen instantly understood that he could select one from these weapons and then engage in battle with his opponent.

Based on the principle of fairness.

At this moment, the power binding him had already disappeared.

Wang Chen took a moment to ponder, then reached out and grasped the staff among the five weapons.

He had once used the staff as his main battle weapon, accumulating considerable experience with it, and moreover, the staff is one of the seven weapons of the Buddhist Sect, highly compatible with the Heavenly Dragon Vajra Method.

The staff was common and unexceptional, feeling cold and smooth to the touch, and quite hefty with a good weight to it.

However, when Wang Chen tried to infuse it with mana, it was like throwing a stone into the sea, eliciting no response at all.

This indicated that it could not be consecrated, nor could it trigger any special powers.

It was merely a plain weapon!

With the staff in hand, Wang Chen’s expression became solemn, and his entire being seemed like an unsheathed sword, exuding a fierce aura.

The burly cultivator sensed his fighting spirit and cracked a smile, “Die!”

The word “Die!” erupted like a clap of spring thunder, instantly traversing the dozen steps between them, fiercely assaulting Wang Chen’s eardrums.

In the next instant, the burly cultivator flashed in front of Wang Chen, the battle axe in his hand becoming a streak of light, chopping towards his forehead like lightning.

The axe carried the might of thunder and was accompanied by the burly cultivator’s formidable force.

Even if Wang Chen were a mountain, it would be split open on the spot!

The falling axe only cleaved through a fleeting shadow.

Just at that critical moment, Wang Chen swiftly sprang back, narrowly avoiding the assailant’s surprise attack.

The timing and spatial distance were just right!

“Eh?”

The burly cultivator was somewhat surprised, but his movements didn’t pause for a moment.

He swung his thick arms, and the battle axe in his hand suddenly whipped up countless axe shadows, pursuing Wang Chen in an all-encompassing manner, sealing off his space to move in all directions.

Without a doubt, this cultivator had been an experienced and powerful battle cultivator in life, going all out from the start, launching one wave of attack after another, giving Wang Chen no chance to catch his breath.

If it had been another cultivator from the Purple Mansion, they would most likely have already been hit under such aggressive, consecutive deadly axe strikes.

However, the staff in Wang Chen’s hand was not just for show.

He keenly caught the real killing move from his opponent, the actual location of the Flourished-Axe, and immediately swung his staff to block, executing a precise parry.

Clang!

The axe blade collided heavily with the shaft of the staff, and due to the immense force applied, the latter bent significantly, while sparks flew at the point of impact.

Yet the staff still withstood the test and wasn’t chopped in two by the battle axe.

Not only that, Wang Chen, holding the staff, stood firm and immovable like a mountain, while his feet sank deeply into the ground.

The burly cultivator’s surefire strike was blocked by Wang Chen, which caused a flicker of emotion in the otherwise cold and indifferent eyes of the burly cultivator. He suddenly lifted his right leg and viciously kicked towards Wang Chen’s lower abdomen!

This kind of combat was more like a confrontation between mortal warriors. The burly cultivator’s martial skills had obviously reached a pinnacle, with every part of his body serving as a weapon to attack the enemy.

Boom!

The burly cultivator was strong in close combat, but Wang Chen was by no means weaker. His right foot, quicker than the cultivator’s, made direct contact in a foot-to-foot collision.

The power of the Heavenly Dragon Vajra exploded!

The burly cultivator immediately lost his balance and stumbled back, leaving deep footprints on the ground with every step.

As for physical strength, Wang Chen would not lose to any cultivator from the Purple Mansion, even if their cultivation level had reached Great Perfection.

Let alone that the burly cultivator was just a tower spirit. Even at the peak of his life, he would not overpower Wang Chen, who had cultivated the Heavenly Dragon Vajra Method to the seventh tier!

Wang Chen gained the upper hand and immediately swept his staff horizontally, aiming at the burly cultivator’s waist and abdomen.

The burly cultivator reacted extremely quickly. In the blink of an eye as the staff was about to make contact, he grabbed it firmly with his hand as large as a fan leaf.

His five fingers were like iron pincers, and the sudden surge of mana caused the veins on the back of his hand to bulge.

“Ha!”

The burly cultivator’s breath turned into thunder, and a dazzling flash of lightning exploded in front of Wang Chen!

This was also one of the ultimate techniques he had mastered during his lifetime.

Once struck head-on by this lightning, the opponent would at least be blinded for three breaths.

Among cultivators, oftentimes a single breath could decide life or death.

Let alone three breaths!

But Wang Chen remained calm and unafraid, not even dodging or parrying.

Suddenly, he released the long staff in his hand, sunk his right shoulder, channeled mana into his legs, and violently charged into the burly cultivator’s embrace.

Iron Mountain Lean!

Bang!

The burly cultivator could never have dreamt that Wang Chen would act so “barbarously,” and to make matters worse, directly smash through the lightning he had breathed out. Caught completely off guard, he was sent flying.

He almost lost grip of his Flourished-Axe!

But this was merely the beginning of his nightmare because in the next breath, Wang Chen ghostly closed the distance and retrieved his weapon.

Immediately after, he smashed his staff heavily down upon his opponent.

Thump!

The burly cultivator crashed to the ground from the air, creating a large crater upon impact.

Whoosh!

Despite being battered to a pulp, the burly cultivator was still ferocious. Lying in the crater, he desperately hurled his Flourished-Axe at the approaching Wang Chen.

Wang Chen flicked away the axe with his staff and landed on the ground.

He gripped the long staff tightly with both hands and stabbed down into the crater at the burly cultivator like a bolt of lightning.

Using the staff as if it were a spear, even without a sharp spearhead, the lethality of a solid thrust was not the slightest bit weaker.

A spear without a spearhead can still kill a person!

The burly cultivator was fiercely trying to leap up when the long staff punctured his chest. A burst of spiritual light appeared at his chest, somehow withstanding Wang Chen’s strike.

Boom!

A thick bolt of lightning, as wide as a water bucket, suddenly descended from the sky and struck the burly cultivator hard.

It was Wang Chen shamelessly unleashing the Nine Heavens Divine Thunder!

Just as the burly cultivator had activated his Body Protection Magical Shield, it instantly collapsed. His body convulsed violently under the thunder’s barrage, and wisps of smoke started to emerge.

He collapsed back into the crater.

Wang Chen pressed his middle finger and index finger together, aiming a sword-fingering strike at his foe, who had become a sitting duck.

The tip of his finger suddenly emitted an intensely brilliant beam of golden light.

Metal Life Finger!

The Metal Life Finger was an advanced version of the Geng Metal Finger. Although Wang Chen seldom used it in combat, he had already cultivated this Purple Mansion Mana to Great Perfection.

The burly cultivator at the bottom of the crater had no strength to dodge and was instantly pierced through the skull!

His body shook, his eyes locked on Wang Chen with an expression of disbelief, followed by a hint of relief as if he was released from his sufferings.

With a “thud,” the entity guarding the sixth tier of the Tower of Heaven-reaching burst open, turning to ashes on the spot, leaving no trace behind!

“Tower of Heaven-reaching sixth tier challenge successful!”
