Chapter 49
"Overlord Sword" Old Ox was fast, his greatsword carrying immense power as he charged at Roy.
Roy put his hands forward, his divine sense locking onto Old Ox.
"Almighty Push!"
"Boom!"
The next moment, an invisible repulsive force collided with the greatsword Old Ox slashed down, erupting in a massive roar.
The space between Roy and Old Ox was distorted by spatial ripples from the clash of their techniques.
"Haa!"
Old Ox let out a mighty cry, the profundity of laws surging on his greatsword as he stubbornly resisted Roy's Almighty Push.
"This 'Overlord Sword'..."
Roy was quite surprised by this.
It was the first time someone had withstood his "Almighty Push" and prevented themselves from being blown away.
"Shatter!"
"Boom!"
Amidst a tremendous roar, Old Ox's greatsword shattered Roy's repulsive force, and he himself, carrying a terrifying fluctuation, surged towards Roy.
"Power Law Profundity, Earth Pulse Law Profundity, Earth Travel Technique Law Profundity, Gravity Space Law Profundity, and a trace of Earth Element Law Profundity..."
From Old Ox's "Shatter" technique, Roy felt five kinds of law profundities. Clearly, Old Ox had taken his first step towards becoming an Asura in his comprehension of earth laws.
"Boom!"
Facing Old Ox's technique, which was stronger than that of an ordinary Seven-star Demon, Roy's figure flickered, escaping the lock-on attack range of Old Ox's move.
It was Shrink Ground, a speed-based profound art fused primarily with the Earth Travel Technique!
"Gate of Babylon!"
Roy, having evaded Old Ox's attack, waved his hand. Law profundity surged behind him, and weapons flew out from golden ripples of law, transforming into streaks of golden light and charging at Old Ox.
"Boom boom boom boom boom boom..."
Weapons condensed from law profundity, carrying unmatched might, tore through space and bombarded Old Ox relentlessly.
"Shatter!"
"Boom boom boom!"
Old Ox's attack had a higher destructive power than Nether Ghost's. With a single slash, he could destroy at least two or three of the weapons Roy launched.
However, Roy's attacks didn't stop there.
"Chains of Heaven!"
Golden chains shot out from the sky, the ground, and the void, coiling around "Overlord Sword" Old Ox.
Under the assault of hundreds of weapons, Old Ox couldn't possibly deal with the entanglement of the Chains of Heaven.
But as a strong fighter with eighty-two consecutive victories, Old Ox clearly had more tricks up his sleeve.
"Roar!"
Old Ox let out a furious roar. His entire body suddenly expanded and grew larger, his horns becoming more prominent, and a yellow light emanated from his body.
"Innate Divine Ability: Indestructible Vajra!"
"Clang clang clang clang clang..."
As his body grew larger, the area of attack also increased.
But to Roy's surprise, the weapons from his "Gate of Babylon" attack couldn't break through Old Ox's glowing body.
This Old Ox's true form was actually a divine beast.
Moreover, judging by the effect of his innate divine ability, it was a powerful talent that enhanced physical defense.
Fortunately, Roy's "Chains of Heaven" had already completely bound Old Ox's limbs and neck, immobilizing him in the void.
"Damn it!"
Old Ox was enraged. He hadn't expected that Roy, also a master of earth laws, wouldn't engage in a direct, pure power battle but would instead use these flashy attacks against him.
What made Old Ox even more furious was that he was actually restrained by these trivial tricks.
"Haa!"
The effect of his innate divine ability hadn't ended. Besides enhancing his defense, Old Ox's strength had also greatly increased.
Immediately, Old Ox's veins bulged on his arms and thighs as he forcefully pulled his limbs back.
"Crack, crack crack..."
Under Old Ox's immense strength, the chains binding him began to shatter bit by bit.
However, as he was breaking free from the chains, Roy's next move was already prepared.
A small black sphere suddenly appeared above Old Ox. The next moment, an infinite gravitational pull drew Old Ox towards it.
Then, countless earth element particles transformed into solid mud and giant rocks, covering the small black sphere and completely sealing Old Ox within.
"Chibaku Tensei!"
As Roy's strongest move among his regular techniques, Chibaku Tensei could amplify the power of his four Law Profundities by three times.
Seeing the massive Star in the sky, both the challengers behind and the spectators were shocked.
After all, the one Roy was fighting was "Overlord Sword" Old Ox, who had an eighty-two-win streak.
How many moves had passed?
He was sealed already?
Sensing the resistance from Old Ox within Chibaku Tensei growing weaker, Roy dispersed the Law power within Chibaku Tensei.
"Boom!"
A powerful force erupted from within the Star, shattering it into pieces.
Old Ox, who had escaped from the Star, was slightly disheveled. Upon seeing Roy, he let out a cold snort.
"You're strong, you're powerful, I admit defeat."
Although he disdained Roy's methods, Old Ox acknowledged his defeat in silence.
He was straightforward, not stupid.
When he was sealed by "Chibaku Tensei," Old Ox clearly felt a force drawing on his soul and divine power. It was precisely due to this suction that the duration of his innate divine ability became extremely short.
Fortunately, after his innate divine ability failed, the suction disappeared without a trace, allowing Old Ox to easily break through the Star and escape. Otherwise, under that suction, Old Ox would have died of soul depletion within a hundred years.
This meant that the strength of this Star was far superior to his.
If he couldn't escape that move just now, he would only be waiting for death.
"You're not weak either."
Roy chuckled, "Your Shatter move already has a bit of the Asura's foundation. If you continue to study it, you might be able to challenge me again in the future."
Indeed, "Overlord Sword" Old Ox's "Shatter" had already begun to fuse the fifth Law Profundity. With continued research, Old Ox might be able to fuse it to its bottleneck within a million years. At that point, he would only need a catalyst to fully fuse it, becoming a powerhouse at the Asura Prefect level.
Of course, this catalyst might be something Old Ox would never encounter in his lifetime, but even so, Old Ox after a million years would be among the top tier of Seven-star Demons.
"Haha, naturally!"
Upon hearing Star complimenting his move, Old Ox puffed out his chest proudly.
However, Old Ox quickly realized something.
Star said that if he continued to study it, he might be able to challenge him in the future?
What did "continue to study it" mean?
He was already fusing the fifth Law Profundity with his current Shatter move.
Going further would mean...
Thinking of this, Old Ox snorted coldly, but he refused to mention when he would come to challenge. He then flew off the stage.
