Wu Liang's aura suddenly erupted, and the 'Gluttonous Feast' technique was unleashed.
Two Taotie phantoms, radiating viciousness and bloodlust, emerged, making the already small water zone seem even more crowded.
The original five-on-one situation had become five-on-three!
The Taotie phantoms roared angrily, their massive, sky-covering paws slamming down. Li Yan, who was charging with his spear, was sent flying, and the spear was pinned to the ground.
Wu Liang shook his head in disappointment, the spark of interest fading in his eyes.
"In terms of level, these people are decent, but their combat awareness and teamwork are terrible. Even if they weren't my match, they should have been able to hold their own for a while before losing. It was a one-sided affair in the end, which is very disappointing."
Wu Liang's Domain Singularity hadn't even appeared yet.
The three of them combined couldn't even force him to use his full strength.
It was precisely because those three were mediocre that, despite having such good resources, they only managed to increase a few levels, far inferior to true geniuses.
Therefore, resources were key to becoming strong, but hard work was also an indispensable part!
The attacks of the two Taotie phantoms surged forth like tidal waves, each wave stronger than the last, forcing the Northern Swamp Black Turtle and the Six-Armed White Ape to retreat continuously, while the water zone above them teetered on the verge of collapse.
Anger flashed in Li Yan's eyes, his gaze darkening.
He summoned back his spear as scalding lava poured across the entire area.
"Come and help me! I have a way to defeat the Taotie!" Li Yan declared in a deep voice.
Seeing Li Yan's confidence, Zhao Yunxiao and Wang Tao immediately came to assist him.
The scalding lava grew even hotter, overlapping with the spear, ultimately hovering before Li Yan, enveloped in towering flames. Zhao Yunxiao and Wang Tao channeled all their power into their spears.
This attack contained the combined power of all three of them.
Wu Liang could defeat one person, but could he possibly defeat three at once?!
Li Yan didn't believe the Taotie could be so monstrous.
"Diamond Mountain... Spear!!"
The rapidly spinning spear shot out, almost tearing space apart, and appeared before Wu Liang in the blink of an eye.
The speed was so fast that Wu Liang didn't even have time to react.
He instinctively activated 'Spatial Lock', but it only held for less than a breath before shattering.
The Diamond Spear continued its trajectory with an unstoppable force.
The combined power of the three clearly overwhelmed Wu Liang!
Seeing this, they were overjoyed.
However, Wu Liang gathered three great wills in his palm and then withstood the attack.
The situation reached a stalemate. The spear continued its rapid spin, already generating a gust of lava-like wind; its terrifying power sent chills down one's spine.
"Wow, Li Yan's Diamond Spear attack is amazing! Its power probably surpasses many Seventh Rank mid-stage cultivators. Their combined power is even stronger!"
"It seems unwise for Taotie to choose to take the hit head-on. If it had used its 'Spatial Lock' technique multiple times, it might have been able to dodge it. Wasting a little power wouldn't have been a loss!"
"Perhaps it's confident in its own strength. After all, it has managed to hold them off until now. The only concern is that Li Yan might have a trick up his sleeve—if that happens, Taotie's in trouble."
The two Taotie phantoms were currently battling the Northern Swamp Black Turtle and the Six-Armed White Ape, and Wu Liang was indeed under pressure trying to fight three at once.
This Diamond Spear alone was extraordinary; it was a heaven-level martial skill with exceptional penetrating power.
If not for the support of the three great wills, Wu Liang would likely have already been forced back.
Li Yan sneered, a mocking glint in his eyes.
"Did you really think we were so easy to deal with? This might just be the real beginning!"
His hand seals suddenly changed, and all the surrounding energy was absorbed by the spear, causing the lava-covered shaft to explode.
The explosive force shattered Wu Liang's defenses, drawing a few drops of crimson blood from his palm, but the wound was instantly healed by the 'Crimson Lotus Karmic Fire'.
But this wasn't the end. The exploded spear revealed its core: a vajra!!
The terrifying penetrating power wasn't in the spear itself, but in the vajra within.
The Vajra Staff was a King Rank spiritual weapon, and its destructive power was even more formidable!
While those below the King Rank could not unleash the full power of a King Rank spiritual weapon, the weapon itself possessed extraordinary hardness, especially this Vajra Staff.
With a high-speed spiraling explosion, the Vajra Staff forced Wu Liang back step by step.
Li Yan suddenly rushed forward, secretly raising his hand to collect the few drops of blood that Wu Liang had just dripped, while simultaneously slamming his heavy fist into the end of the Vajra Staff.
This strike sent Wu Liang flying backward.
The power of the Vajra Staff didn't stop there; it continued to shoot towards Wu Liang, and the mixed forces were such that even he could not withstand them.
"Damn it, I'll destroy your Vajra Staff!"
Wu Liang roared, and his ink-like Devouring Domain began to shrink, finally transforming into a singularity.
The singularity of the Devouring Domain collided violently with the Vajra Staff, unleashing a deafening roar like a nuclear explosion at the point of contact. The watery zone instantly exploded, sending the Six-Armed White Ape and the Northern Swamp Black Turtle flying.
And to everyone's astonishment, the Vajra Staff shortened, more than half of it swallowed by the Devouring Domain singularity!
Li Yan's eyes nearly popped out of their sockets.
"How is this possible? The Vajra Staff is a King Rank spiritual weapon; only a King Rank cultivator can destroy it. How could a Fifth Rank Taotie possibly destroy it?!"
Zhao Yunxiao and Wang Tao were equally dumbfounded.
They were completely unaware of Li Yan's move beforehand.
He most likely intended to use the hidden Vajra Staff to defeat the Taotie, but the Taotie was too powerful, preventing him from acting earlier.
However, the Vajra Staff was a genuine King Rank spiritual weapon, incredibly hard; how could it possibly be destroyed?!
Ling Qingxue was also shocked, a complex emotion welling up within her.
He actually did it!
At the Fifth Rank, he had mastered the singularity of a domain, a power only wielded by Imperial Rank experts!
The power of this singularity was beyond imagination. With the power of the Devouring Domain, coupled with the enhancement of the three wills, it was no surprise that this Domain Singularity could destroy a King Rank spiritual artifact.
No matter how hard the material, the Devouring Domain singularity could forcibly devour it.
Only a very few top-tier King Rank spiritual artifacts could resist the devouring power of this Devouring Domain Singularity.
This was a singularity formed from the concentrated power of an entire Devouring Domain!
The Vajra Staff was completely devoured by the Domain Singularity and then continued to shoot towards Li Yan, leaving a bloody hole in his chest.
This was only the result of Wu Liang holding back; otherwise, if the Devouring Domain Singularity had exploded inside him, Li Yan would likely be reduced to nothing, not even a piece of flesh remaining.
Thump!
Li Yan fell backward, blood gushing from his chest.
This single blow had severely wounded him, and seeing this, Zhao Yunxiao and Wang Tao had no intention of continuing the fight.
"We're not fighting anymore! We surrender!" Zhao Yunxiao and Wang Tao hastily conceded.
That Domain Singularity just now had the power to kill them instantly.
If that singularity had struck even a moment sooner, they would likely have been instantly wiped out right from the start!
They might have even lost their lives!
They simply couldn't understand how a Fifth Rank magical beast could possess such formidable strength, with such a multitude of unpredictable attacks.
If Wu Liang were to master the Invincible Will and condense the Invincible Domain, just how powerful would he become?!
