Chapter 1294: Fighting the Shadow Knight

Translator: WQL Editor: Aleem

As a part of the winding, narrow tunnel had been collapsed by Zhang Tie’s alchemist’s bombs, if Gao Tianzhao wanted to go back, he had to clear the ruins. However, it was nothing difficult for such a powerful shadow knight to do it. Gao Tianzhao completely blew up those boulders and spalls in the winding, narrow tunnel by force. With a rumble, Gao Tianzhao soon cleared out a way in the tunnel…

Under the gaze of lotus-flower eyes, Gao Tianzhao was approaching the spacious underground space. Zhang Tie could sense that Gao Tianzhao had been completely relaxed after fighting him just like the 8 wing demon knights. It seemed that Gao Tianzhao was focusing on clearing out that tunnel so as to evacuate from here with those demon knights as soon as possible.

Holding a golden spear, Zhang Tie remained still and calm as if he were a piece of icy, lifeless black granite. Standing solemnly and quietly on the other end of the winding, narrow tunnel, he felt his battle qi surging inside. At this moment, even Zhang Tie himself felt a bit strange. Facing a shadow knight, he should be a bit intense; however, Zhang Tie didn’t feel intense in front of such powerful knights anymore, even though the shadow knight was much more powerful than him; instead, he only felt tranquil.

All the way from Blackhot City to now, after experiencing so many battles, Zhang Tie’s heart realm had long been as hard as steel and as pure as crystal and diamond facing a battle. That was the heart realm of real powerhouses.

After breaking through the collapsed tunnel, Gao Tianzhao started to accelerate towards the spacious underground space.

The moment Gao Tianzhao entered the sight of Zhang Tie, Zhang Tie accelerated to over 14 times the speed of sound in a split second in the tunnel as he threw out his golden spear. When the golden spear left Zhang Tie’s hand, its speed reached over 20 times that of the speed of sound immediately, which meant about 6,800 m per second. At the same time, Zhang Tie attached a “cracking” god’s rune effect to the golden spear…

This kinetic strike was the most powerful strike that Zhang Tie had ever launched since fighting Ockham. This strike was greater than the most powerful strike which Zhang Tie launched towards Ockham in both speed and strength. It indicated Zhang Tie’s wholly-new realm and battle strength after breaking through 5 change earth realm after absorbing the water chakra of Ockham.

Zhang Tie had calculated the time and the distance. Almost the moment the golden spear left Zhang Tie’s hand, Gao Tianzhao had entered Zhang Tie’s sight. The golden light almost touched Gao Tianzhao’s protective battle qi at the same time. Gao Tianzhao couldn’t even have time to respond to it.

Gao Tianzhao had not imagined that he could encounter the secondary strike in the winding, narrow tunnel where Zhang Tie had ambushed them with alchemist’s bombs. It was psychological blindness that everyone would have in this case. After being ambushed by Zhang Tie in the place where he prepared to ambush the opponent, Gao Tianzhao had been aggrieved; however, who could imagine that he could encounter the secondary strike after the opponent left?

When the golden spear approached him as fast as a lightning bolt, Gao Tianzhao didn’t even see clearly what it was. However, Gao Tianzhao lost his guts immediately after noticing this thing’s super great speed and the unrivaled sharpness that could penetrate through and destroy everything. Gao Tianzhao realized that he could neither evacuate nor make a turn. In the split second, he couldn’t even fully release his protective battle qi before the golden spear reached Gao Tianzhao’s chest…

When a 680 kg golden spear collided with Gao Tianzhao at the speed of over 6,800 m per second, it released over 15 billion Joules of kinetic energy in a split second on a tiny point.

The great power of the kinetic strike was restricted to an extremely small scope, causing greater destruction. In a split second, the rocks beside Gao Tianzhao had turned into ashes. Only after bearing a split second, Gao Tianzhao’s protective battle qi had been broken through. Closely after that, the golden spear immediately penetrated through Gao Tianzhao’s body, vaporizing all of his clothes and shattering all of his remote-sensing communications finger rings. Besides, Gao Tianzhao was sent flying back against the rocks, causing a huge pit which was dozens of meters in depth. The golden spear broke into pieces; some broken parts of the golden spears directly flew out of Gao Tianzhao’s body, causing the secondary strike onto his body. The shock wave did the third time harms to Gao Tianzhao…

The entire underground space started to rock. It was as destructive as detonating hundreds of alchemist’s bombs, which was over 10 times more destructive than that just now.

Gao Tianzhao was so angry that his eyes almost popped out of eye sockets as he spurted out blood constantly. His hair and beard had been burned by the kinetic energy and high temperature of the golden spear in a split second.

If it was someone else, he would have long been killed; however, as a shadow knight, the moment his body was penetrated through by the golden spear, he had released his protective battle qi, diffusing the greater part of the harms caused by the broken pieces of the golden spear and all the impact waves in the mountain cave…

If Gao Tianzhao was given a bit time, he could completely cure his injuries and leave out of here alive. Pitifully, Zhang Tie didn’t spare any time to Gao Tianzhao.

“Who are..” Not until then did Gao Tianzhao see clearly who was ambushing him. Pitifully, Gao Tianzhao didn’t have lotus-flower eyes. Of course, he couldn’t see through Zhang Tie’s face under the Chaos. Before he uttered “you”, Zhang Tie’s second blow had arrived.

In Chaos, Zhang Tie was holding Thor’s Hammer in an extremely grim look. In the smokes and high temperature brought by the impact waves, he forcefully knocked onto the protective battle qi that Gao Tianzhao had just released by Thor’s Hammer at the speed of over 14 times the speed of sound as fast as a lightning bolt like a ruthless God of Death who was ready to reap a life…

Chaos, Thor’s Hammer plus Zhang Tie’s weight made it to 7,486 kg in total. At the speed of over 5,000 m per second, Zhang Tie reached a new height in strength.

The shattering effect and lightning harm of Thor’s Hammer with the kinetic energy of over 93 billion Joules fell onto the body of Gao Tianzhao once again.

Soon after Gao Tianzhao’s protective battle qi was released, it was collapsed once again together with the hard rocks behind him. As a result, Gao Tianzhao was bleeding from eyes, ears, mouth and nose all over. Each of his wounds was enlarging and bleeding like running water. Gao Tianzhao directly sunk about 100 m into the rocks…

“Argh…” Gao Tianzhao roared as he started to launch a counterattack by punching towards Zhang Tie by two fists. At the same time, he released his battle qi…

However, Zhang Tie didn’t spare any chance to Gao Tianzhao.

Zhang Tie kept surging forward as bravely as a God of Battle. The moment Gao Tianzhao punched his battle qi, Zhang Tie’s Thor’s Hammer had arrived again. The large flat side of the hammer collided with the shadow knight’s two fists with the kinetic energy of over 93 billion Joules…

The collision between such terrifying kinetic energy and the battle qi of a shadow knight in a narrow tunnel would cause greater harm. Zhang Tie almost lost his control of the hammer. At the same time, a great strength directly hit onto Zhang Tie’s body. Although Chaos and Zhang Tie’s protective battle qi diffused the greater part of the strength, Zhang Tie still uttered a muffled sound; at the same time, blood surged to his throat. However, he swallowed it…

The great strength sent Zhang Tie over 100 m backward.

In the second collision, Gao Tianzhao was sent over 50 m deeper into the rock. At the same time, Gao Tianzhao’s fists were completely shattered, leaving two bald wrists which were spraying out blood in a grim and terrifying way…

A lot of rocks collapsed from the top. After swallowing his blood, Zhang Tie gritted his teeth while launching the third time strike towards Gao Tianzhao after uttering a muffled roar…

In this case, Zhang Tie was deeply convinced that the braver one would win the battle in such a narrow path. He could only exert his utmost efforts to fight Gao Tianzhao.

After losing his fists, Gao Tianzhao turned into a bloody mist while being surrounded by numerous flying runes. Before Zhang Tie’s strike arrived, Gao Tianzhao had turned into the real body of the virtual image of a giant boa as long as 100 m. The moment it quivered its body, it would cause an earthquake.

However, the wings of this real body of the virtual image of giant boa had been broken. Additionally, there was a big bleeding hole in its body. When Zhang Tie rushed over here for the third time, the giant boa suddenly opened its bloody mouth while its weird, black battle qi formed a huge black swirl in its mouth. Various bizarre runes were rotating in the huge black hole. When Zhang Tie approached it at the speed of 14 times the speed of sound, he was suddenly drawn by the strange suction in the swirl. He then slowed down at once. However, he felt like losing his control.

Before Zhang Tie made any response to it, the real body of the giant boa directly swallowed Zhang Tie…
