Chapter 703: 698. Who can compete! Similarly, Tian Mu watched this scene with a stern expression.
He admitted that he had underestimated He Nian.
To be able to unleash power beyond one’s peak in such an extreme state was truly terrifying.
"This move, I’m afraid no one in the entire Heaven-Gazing Gorge at the Half-Step Earth Unrestricted would dare to take, right?"
Of course, he didn’t think this was some coincidence.
Because nothing happens for no reason.
If He Nian could do this, there must be a reason, but it’s so deeply hidden that he couldn’t see it at the moment.
Now, it depends on whether He Nian can reverse the situation with this move.
...
Under the blood-colored Vein Qi’s shroud, He Nian’s Giant Hammer began to smash downward.
However, what’s worth noting is He Nian’s face at this moment.
On his blood-drenched face, a barely noticeable abnormality appeared, only visible to those in the heart of the battle.
At this moment, He Nian’s eyes showed one different color each.
This represented that He Nian was of mixed heritage.
The product of the union between human and demon.
As the Giant Hammer completed its charge and started to come down, the other red eye emitted a faint yet resolute glow.
"Today, you forced out all my trump cards, so... you must die!"
He Nian grinned fiercely.
Because of the presence of a blood-red eye, He Nian’s smile appeared even more bizarre.
The first hammer, power fully charged.
Suddenly struck the ground.
Boom——
The blood-colored Vein Qi, originally bursting like fireworks, seemed to be pressed down by an invisible force, and as it neared the ground, everything within a kilometer was crushed.
The houses and tall buildings that still stood collapsed with a rumble, falling beneath the night’s shadow.
The stones paving the street vanished entirely, crumbling into fragments pressed into the soil.
But this was far from over; when everything was crushed by the power of this hammer, it was as if a Giant Hammer fell within the thousand-meter vicinity, driving the entire ground several feet downward.
Creating a huge pit in the ground, ten, even a hundred feet deep, its power was terrifying.
One could imagine how immense the force pressing down on this ground was, for it to sink so much.
And this was just the first hammer!
Against Long Ye, He Nian had struck three hammers.
Now that He Nian unleashed even stronger power, perhaps this time it would be more than just three hammers.
"Heaven-shaking, earth-shattering, second hammer!" Seeing the Devouring Beast before him only buried its legs some inches into the earth under the first hammer, He Nian’s expression turned crazed as he raised his hand for another strike.
Being enveloped by the Blood-colored Vein Qi, although the Devouring Beast could still move freely, its speed wasn’t one percent of its peak.
Currently, the movement speed of the Devouring Beast at best compared to the Profound level.
The speed of the Profound level couldn’t cover a kilometer in one breath.
Boom——
After moving a hundred meters, the second hammer fell.
The heaven-shaking, earth-moving roar plunged the entire Vast City into chaos, as if thunder clapped right beside.
Although the blood-colored Vein Qi only covered a thousand meters, the second hammer, by driving the earth another three feet deep, sent a shock wave that spread further out.
A full three thousand meters!
That is to say, people standing as far as three thousand meters from the battlefield center could still feel the oncoming pressure of the Vein Qi impact.
"Can’t take it anymore, can you?" Seeing the Devouring Beast with seven or eight ribs broken after the second hammer, He Nian smiled slightly.
He still had the third hammer.
The power of the third hammer was twice that of the first and second combined!
Accompanied by He Nian’s smile, Tian Mu, the one who dared stay nearest to watch, showed some appreciation.
He Nian’s Earth Unrestricted stance had already begun to take shape.
Even if in the next decade or two He Nian didn’t reach Earth Unrestricted, he would certainly be among the foremost in the Half-Step Earth Unrestricted.
Comparable to the Long Family’s second young master, Long Ye!
Understand that He Nian was merely a servant in He Mansion, with even the last name bestowed, and who knows how many were above him. So, what He Mansion could offer him was scarce.
Whereas Long Ye was the second young master of the Long Family.
