Chapter 1221 The Power of Time
As he spoke, Qin Zhong began to regulate his breathing. Because of the urgency of the situation, he didn't care that he hadn't fully absorbed the energy yet, and hurriedly broke out of the cocoon.
This means that he is only at the peak of level eight, which is about the same as the Emperor.
"In that case, let's fight!"
Sensing the palpable killing intent emanating from Qin Zhong, which stung his skin, Huang slowly lowered his center of gravity and waved his hands, re-condensing two swords of destruction.
Faced with such a powerful enemy, no matter how carefully he guards against him, it is never excessive!
"Chucky!"
Just as the emperor was waiting intently, dozens of sharp metal spears suddenly shot upwards from the metal ground beneath his feet, hurtling towards his lower body at incredible speed.
Faced with such a fierce surprise attack, the emperor seemed to have been prepared, and stomped down heavily with his right foot, stepping hard on the metal spears.
Suddenly, accompanied by a flash of blue light, dozens of metal spears were frozen into pieces by the extreme low temperature, scattering all over the ground.
However, in a battle between experts, whoever strikes first gains the upper hand.
Just as the emperor shattered those dozens of metal spears into pieces, hundreds and thousands more metal spears shot out from all directions again, forming a giant net that enveloped him completely.
On this ground entirely made of high-strength alloy, the power of Qin's heavy metal mimicry superpower is increased by at least 30%!
"boom!"
However, the metal mimicry superpower alone could not pose a threat to the Emperor. Just as those metal spears were about to strike the Emperor, a powerful force of lightning and fire suddenly exploded outwards from the Emperor.
Faced with the powerful lightning and fire, hundreds and thousands of metal spears instantly melted like candles encountering a branding iron, turning into molten iron that flowed all over the ground.
"die!"
Forced to unleash the power of thunder and fire, Qin Chong let out a cold shout and simultaneously hurled the last thirty-odd yellow orbs nurtured within his body at the emperor.
When absorbing the life crystals, these small yellow spheres also undergo the baptism of powerful life force, thus gaining even greater power.
Before the thirty-odd yellow balls could even hit the Emperor, they exploded simultaneously under Qin Zhong's control, transforming into countless sharp needles that shot towards him.
"Pong!"
Faced with the barrage of metal needles raining down on him, the Emperor's eyes twitched slightly. He raised both of his swords of destruction, and they clashed heavily together.
Immediately, after the two swords of destruction clashed, an enormous ice shield appeared before the emperor, blocking all the metal needles.
However, after the emperor blocked all the metal needles and separated the two swords again, Qin Zhong's figure disappeared from his sight.
At the same time, a dazzling sword light suddenly burst out from behind the emperor, piercing the back of his head.
"clang!"
To everyone's surprise, when Qin Chong's right hand, which had transformed into a longsword, pierced the emperor's head, it emitted a clear, resonant sound like striking a bell.
Just as Qin Chong was slightly stunned, Huang Ye suddenly raised his hands and thrust the blades of his two swords fiercely towards Qin Chong behind him.
"Stab!"
Qin Zhong never expected that the Emperor's head would be so hard. Due to the shock that paralyzed his body, he was unable to dodge both of the Emperor's swords at the same time. He could only barely twist his body to avoid one of the swords.
But another sword of destruction slashed deeply across his face, leaving a deep gash.
"Oh!"
Before the Emperor could launch another attack, six metal wings had already materialized on Qin Zhong's back. He then flapped his wings and retreated from the Emperor's attack range at an extremely fast speed.
"Damn it!" After Qin Chong stepped back, both Huang and Qin Chong cursed inwardly at the same time.
Qin Zhong was naturally furious and ashamed because his attempt to steal a chicken had backfired, while the Emperor was enraged by the excruciating pain emanating from his brain and spine.
Although Qin Zhong's sword did not shatter his skull, the immense force carried by the blade still caused a great shock to his brain and spine.
Otherwise, that sword wouldn't have just grazed Qin Zhong's face; it would have pierced his head directly.
"This guy's got something weird about him!"
Looking at the emperor's ashen face in the distance, Qin Zhong's body ignited with deep yellow radiant flames. Under the effect of the radiant flames, the frostbite caused by the Sword of Destruction was instantly melted, and he was completely healed.
"Damn metal mimicry!" On the other side, Huang looked at Qin Zhong, who had recovered completely, and his face turned even more ashen.
If there's anything more painful than encountering an enemy with a metallic mimicry body and near-immortality, it's that this enemy, in addition to possessing a metallic mimicry body, also has a bizarre variant of fire-based superpowers.
It should be noted that his icy flames were originally the nemesis of metal-mimicking superpowers.
But now, faced with that strange radiant flame, under the mutual restraint, the effect of his own icy flame is minimal.
……
"Qin Zhong, you're finally out!"
Just as Qin Zhong and the Emperor were locked in a stalemate, King Arthur returned to the battlefield. Although he was seriously injured, thanks to Qin Zhong's timely appearance, his overall condition was still relatively good.
"If they don't come out soon, we might really not be able to hold on!" At the same time, Chen Fang also breathed a slight sigh of relief. Now that Qin Chong had appeared, the battle had taken a turn for the better.
"Everyone be careful, the Emperor's strength is definitely more than this!"
Upon hearing Chen Fang and King Arthur's words, Qin Zhong nodded slightly, a very solemn expression appearing on his face.
Although he hasn't suffered too much at the hands of the Emperor in the battle so far, it is precisely because of this that he is even more wary of the Emperor.
Since the Emperor is hailed as the strongest being on Star X, his strength is undeniable. However, the combat power he has displayed so far, while formidable, is not as strong as one might imagine.
From this perspective, there are two possibilities: either he was overly boastful, or the emperor's true strength has been hidden and has not yet been unleashed.
If the second possibility is true, then his true strength, once unleashed, would likely be extremely terrifying.
"Let's work together to force him to reveal all his trump cards."
Upon hearing Qin Zhong's words, King Arthur nodded, then leaped into the air, transforming once again into a streak of light, and shot towards the emperor.
At the same time, Qin Zhong rushed in from another direction at high speed, his right hand transforming into a long sword, and fiercely stabbed towards Huang's chest and abdomen.
After that sword strike, he dared not target the emperor's strange head again.
“Bang, bang!”
With two loud booming sounds, the Emperor's twin swords clashed fiercely with the longsword that Qin Chong's right hand had transformed into, as well as King Arthur's right claw.
However, at that moment, the petrifying light that Chen Fang had condensed also struck Huang's back heavily, causing his body to quickly form a thin layer of stone.
Although this stone shell cannot completely seal the emperor, it can effectively reduce his speed and strength, thus providing King Arthur and Qin Zhong with a better opportunity.
"Pfft!"
His body surface was petrified, and the emperor suddenly became sluggish, as if he were wearing shackles.
Meanwhile, King Arthur and Qin Zhong launched their second attack.
With two muffled thuds, their longswords and claws pierced through the petrified skin on the emperor's body and then plunged deep into his body.
"Ah! Get out of here!"
The combined attack of the three top experts was something even the Emperor could not withstand. The excruciating pain of the blades piercing his body caused him to roar in anger.
Then, the two swords of destruction suddenly exploded, and in an instant, a powerful force directly struck Qin Zhong, King Arthur, and the emperor himself.
"Pfft!"
The destructive power of the Sword of Destruction was terrifying. After being hit by two explosive impacts head-on, the Emperor, King Arthur, and Qin Zhong were all blasted away.
Among them, the emperor and King Arthur, who were made of flesh and blood, suddenly spat out several mouthfuls of blood, their bodies charred black and covered in frost, looking extremely miserable.
Qin Zhong was not faring much better. Despite his even stronger defense, his injuries were more severe than King Arthur's due to the shockwave from the explosion of the Sword of Destruction, which he had to help King Arthur withstand.
Qin Zhong's body, which shimmered with a metallic luster, was covered with countless wounds of varying depths. The surface of the wounds was completely frozen by ice, making it impossible for him to heal for the time being.
"Hu! Hu! Hu!"
Standing less than 500 meters away from Qin Chong and the others, Huang straightened up, panting.
He never expected to be forced to this extent. At this moment, his injuries had become even more serious. If he didn't deal with Qin Chong and the others and then go to the blood pool to heal, he was afraid he wouldn't be able to hold on for much longer.
Thinking of this, the emperor's eyes suddenly became incredibly deep, and his body, which had been somewhat hunched due to his severe injuries, slowly straightened up.
He has decided to reveal his final trump card, even though this may leave him with no strength to deal with the others after killing his three strongest enemies.
But once those three troublesome guys are gone, he could easily handle the rest of humanity with just one hand.
"I must admit, you are the most formidable enemies I have ever encountered! No one else!"
Taking a deep breath, the Emperor calmly glanced at King Arthur and the others before turning his gaze to Qin Zhong: "Especially you. I never imagined that such a powerful being as strong as you could be born on a planet like Blue Star, which is of such low evolutionary level!"
At this point, the Emperor's eyes deepened. He stretched out his hands, smoothed his messy, blood-stained blond hair, and said calmly, "However, even if you are so troublesome, victory will ultimately belong to me. Do you want to know why?"
Before Qin Zhong and the others could speak, the Emperor continued, "Because I have mastered the power of time. I have awakened countless superpowers, but the power of time is the strongest power in the universe!"
As the emperor's arrogant voice faded, Qin Zhong, King Arthur, and Chen Fang suddenly felt an unprecedented sense of crisis rising in their hearts.
However, before they could react, three violent roars suddenly rang out from them.
Suddenly, a tremendous force struck their chests, causing them to cough up large amounts of blood. With fist marks suddenly appearing on their chests, they were blasted away by this immense force.
The three top experts didn't even know how they were injured before they were blasted away!
