Chapter 665: Snow Mountain Thunder Falcon
Phoenixin Renâs gravity field greatly relieved the pressure on Daiku Kai Enzu.
The two had fought side by side many times before.
Daiku Kai had already adapted to this kind of amplified gravity.
But Bai Chunyu and Li Taichang were having a harder time.
Daiku Kai Enzu grinnedâhe wasnât about to miss a golden opportunity!
He swung his Dragonfly Cutter straight at Li Taichangâs head!
As someone who came from a sumo background, he knew nothing about proper weapon techniques.
His fighting style was simpleâbrute force!
Overwhelm everything with sheer strength!
Li Taichang narrowed his eyes and quickly retreated to create distance.
Then he whipped out a chain over ten meters long, swinging it straight at Daiku Kai.
At the end of the chain, the meteor hammer aimed right for Daiku Kaiâs chest!
With blunt weapons, you didnât need to strike vital points. Just land a solid hit, and the opponent would be out of the fight.
Though Daiku Kai was arrogant, he had experienced Li Taichangâs strength firsthand and didnât dare to take the hit head-on.
But from this distance, he could easily deflect the strike with just one hand using his Dragonfly Cutter.
Despite wearing heavy armor, Li Taichang moved swiftly. He had intentionally created space to adapt to the gravity field.
Soon, he got used to fighting under this pressure and began engaging Daiku Kai in close quarters with practiced ease.
In the past, he had been one of Chinaâs top martial arts performers and a master of the meteor hammer.
After gaining superhuman powers, his physical weaknesses were eliminated, turning him into a true powerhouse.
âMy skills are top-tier.â
âAnd my strength? Also top-tier,â
Li Taichang said confidently.
So even when faced with a bear-like sumo champion, he showed no fear.
He believed in himselfâand in his team.
Bai Chunyuâs assault had lost momentum. The gravity field was seriously screwing with his ability.
Snowfall couldnât dance freely in this kind of environment.
He turned to Luo Tianxiang and said, âTake out that gravity manipulator for me!â
Luo Tianxiang replied, âGot it!â
He gave the ground a light push and launched into the sky.
Mid-air, two massive white wings spread from his back, and his entire form transformed into a gigantic bird.
Luo TianxiangâBeast-type Superhuman, Rare Beast Class: Snow Mountain Thunder Falcon.
In a flash, Luo Tianxiang soared hundreds of meters into the air.
Even at this height, he could clearly see every movement on the ground below.
That was thanks to his ability: Eagle Eye, which allowed him to dynamically track everything on the battlefield.
He locked onto Phoenixin Renâs position and unleashed a bolt of white lightning from his mouthâ
It streaked down like a sword from the heavens!
It moved incredibly fast. But this time, Luo Tianxiang had transformed right in front of their eyes.
They were prepared.
Just as the lightning struck, Phoenixin Renâs body suddenly leaped backward, flying dozens of meters away in a flash!
His body floated as if it had no weight at all.
The gravity field could be projected outwardâor inward onto himself.
That made him feel like he was walking on a planet with half the gravity of the moon.
So his speed and strength received a massive boost.
Luo Tianxiang let out a piercing cry.
Lightning surged through his talons, and he fired bolt after bolt down onto the battlefield!
The entire Moon of Corrosion trio was within his strike zone.
From high above, he looked down like a king surveying his domain.
At that altitude, few could even hope to touch him.
This was his favorite kind of battle: a kite gameâstay high, strike hard, stay safe.
But just thenâ
Kurosawa Akira shrugged off his black leather jacket and raised his massive black arm cannon.
âHunting time.â
He lifted the cannon and took aim at Luo Tianxiang in the sky.
Without hesitation, he pulled the triggerâ
A beam of yellow light shot upward, forming a brilliant column that zoomed toward Luo Tianxiang.
Whoosh!
Luo Tianxiang twisted midair and dodged the shot effortlessly.
As the ruler of the skies, his speed was top-tier. That slow, clunky cannon shot didnât stand a chance.
Just as Bai Chunyu was about to shift into his snow form to help out, he suddenly heard a desperate cry from behind:
âVice Captain, help me out over here!â
In just a dozen seconds, Daiku Kai Enzu and Li Taichang had already clashed hundreds of times!
Daiku Kaiâs fighting style was brutally straightforward:
He charged Li Taichang head-on, forcing him into strength duels.
That heavy, sharp Dragonfly Cutter slammed down over and over againâ
Though it was technically a blade, he wielded it like a blunt weapon.
After all, he had no real skill with weapons.
He chose the Dragonfly Cutter simply because he idolized that legendary Neon warrior, Honda Tadakatsu.
But once the fight started, he realized it worked better like a club.
Li Taichang wasnât about to back down.
Gripping his anchor in both hands, he met Daiku Kai head-on.
But after the initial clash, he realized something was wrongâ
He was completely outmatched in raw strength.
That Tidal Tiger transformationâthree meters tall and monstrousâ
Made Daiku Kai nearly unbeatable in terms of power!
Clang! Clang! Clang!
The Dragonfly Cutter kept slamming into the anchor.
After just a few dozen collisions, Li Taichangâs hands were going numb, and a chill ran down his spine.
After a hundred exchanges, his knees buckledâthud!âhe collapsed.
But Daiku Kai Enzu wasnât done.
He stared at the man in heavy armor struggling to stay upâ
And a savage fury welled up in his chest.
He was going to smash this cowardâhiding behind armorâinto meat paste!
Finally, Li Taichangâs arms gave out.
Even though his battle armor had been custom-made by Deng Industries,
The gap in their strength was simply too vast.
Daiku Kai shook his right handâ
And Li Taichangâs anchor flew from his grip.
Bai Chunyu saw that Li Taichang couldnât hold his own against Daiku Kai and wasnât surprised.
After all, the opponent was the No. 2 in the Moon of Corrosionâ
No one expected Li Taichang to actually win.
He had brought him along just to stall Daiku Kai in a head-on confrontation.
Li Taichang may have called out for help,
But he was still moving swiftly, circling along the ground,
Whipping his heavy chain toward Daiku Kaiâs legs, trying to trap him.
Bai Chunyu saw this and spoke through the comms:
âYou handle the other two. Iâll help Li Taichang take down the big guy first!â
âGot it. Theyâre all yours,â Luo Tianxiang replied.
From hundreds of meters up, Luo Tianxiang looked down at the battlefield.
His massive talons crackled with electricity, unleashing dozens of bolts at Kurosawa Akira and Phoenixin Ren.
The two were forced into retreat after retreat.
Their methods were poorly suited to dealing with someone like Luo Tianxiang.
He soared high aboveâtoo fast, too high.
Even Kurosawaâs arm cannon couldnât get a clean shot on him.
