The flame staff took the golden light strike head-on, absorbing it entirely into its body. After the golden light rapidly circulated through the flame staff, it finally settled at one end of the fire rod, gradually transforming into a sharp spear tip.
At this point, the flame staff had completely transformed into a short crimson-gold spear!
The Immortal killer move Roaring Golden Blazing Sun Spear had finally been successfully activated!
"Your time of death has come." Zhao Lianyun exhaled a breath of turbid air, her face brimming with excitement. Her right hand tightly gripped the Roaring Golden Blazing Sun Spear, her arm slowly raising it high as she aimed at Zhao Pu across from her. In that moment, her spirits soared and her morale peaked.
Zhao Pu wore a solemn expression, his eyes locked on the Roaring Golden Blazing Sun Spear in Zhao Lianyun's hand. He praised it openly: "This spear is formidable. Both its temperature and radiance have been internalized — once it erupts, the damage will surely be terrifying. However..."
At that point, his tone abruptly shifted, and a smile of successful scheming spread across his face.
He continued to Zhao Lianyun: "Don't you feel that something is amiss with you right now?"
"Huh?" Zhao Lianyun then noticed something warm and salty seemed to be flowing at the corners of her lips.
She reached out her left hand and gently wiped it, only to discover that her hand was covered in bright red blood!
Without realizing it, she had started bleeding.
"What is this?!" Zhao Lianyun's pupils instantly contracted to needle-point size, her body trembling.
"This is my killer move — Blood Runs Dry. Heh heh heh." Zhao Pu laughed heartily.
"Impossible? You clearly..." Zhao Lianyun started speaking, but suddenly a torrent of blood spilled from her mouth involuntarily, staining her white teeth completely red.
"Hahaha, you were going to ask how I showed no signs of activating an Immortal killer move, weren't you? In fact, I've been activating it all along — I just used a different method." Zhao Pu said with a grin.
"Could it be... the legendary technique — Move Disassembly?" Yu Yiyizi's eyes widened as he blurted out in shock.
Zhao Pu glanced his way: "Kid. You're quite knowledgeable."
Gu Insect raising, usage, and refinement — these three major aspects are all profoundly vast.
In the field of Gu refinement, there are various methods and techniques. In the field of Gu usage, naturally the same applies.
When it comes to Immortal killer moves, there are many extraordinary methods and techniques. For example, the combo moves mastered by the Burning Heaven Demoness. She is able to use two or more Immortal-grade Flame Path killer moves in succession, achieving even greater effects.
Another example is the move variation mastered by Fang Yuan. The "Ten Thousand Selves" created through the convergence of slave and strength force originally manifests a massive number of strength-force phantoms to fight. But after variation, Fang Yuan gained the "Ten Thousand Selves First Form: Strength Grand Palm Seal." This variation itself is built upon Ten Thousand Selves, yet achieves combat effects that Ten Thousand Selves alone could never accomplish.
And the technique Zhao Pu employed right now was Move Disassembly. If he had directly activated the Blood Path Immortal killer move Blood Runs Dry, the ever-vigilant Zhao Lianyun would certainly have detected it, disrupting or evading it in advance. But Zhao Pu broke this move into several components and deployed them one by one during their exchanges. Once every component had been used, the full power of Blood Runs Dry was achieved.
The advantages of doing this were obvious. No distinctive phenomena appeared, causing the opponent to fall victim without ever realizing it. Utterly impossible to guard against!
"Damn it! He was hiding his true strength the entire time, always pretending — on the surface he attacked repeatedly, failing to break through my Silver Life-Locking Chain's defenses, but in reality he was secretly executing his scheme. And in the end, he achieved his goal!"
In just that short while, Zhao Lianyun discovered that not only were her mouth and nasal cavity continuously bleeding, but blood had also begun flowing from her ears. Her eyes were tinged with a faint crimson hue, causing her vision to start growing blurry.
Zhao Lianyun's heart pounded wildly as she couldn't help but think of Yu Yiyizi's appearance.
"I've been caught by the move after all!"
"If things continue like this, won't I end up just like Yu Yiyizi?"
"How cunning!!"
Zhao Lianyun's emotions surged. She hurled the Roaring Golden Blazing Sun Spear in her hand straight at Zhao Pu.
But Zhao Pu had long been fully prepared, extremely wary of the fire spear in Zhao Lianyun's hand. The moment Zhao Lianyun showed the slightest shoulder movement, he had already begun to evade.
The Roaring Golden Blazing Sun Spear had no lock-on capability, but its speed was tremendous as it shot past Zhao Pu by a hair's breadth.
