I am Peerless Mad

Chapter 513 Unleashing the Killer Move

Under the morning sun, Jiang Wuming left an afterimage on the ancient battlefield, his eyes blazing with white light. His powerful mental energy poured out like a flood, surging from his brow and shooting towards the youth in white armor.

The youth in white armor had not expected Jiang Wuming to attack first, nor to employ a mental assault.

Relying on his powerful combat instincts, he was about to swing his saber at Jiang Wuming when he sensed a terrifying mental force entering his mind.

Within the youth in white armor's mental world, he was seated cross-legged in a palace, cultivating.

As Jiang Wuming's mental energy flooded into the youth's mental world, the palace emitted a white radiance, like an aura, protecting the palace and the youth's mental form within.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

At this moment, Jiang Wuming's mental energy split into five, transforming into five mental flying swords arranged in a five-element formation, encircling the youth's mental palace.

Five-Element Sword Formation.

With his first move, Jiang Wuming unleashed the third stance of the nameless mental attack secret technique: the Five-Element Sword Formation.

This secret technique was exchanged by Jiang Wuming for "Nine-Nine Divine Forging," the reward for the genius division of the Global Martial Arts Competition, with Caroline, the Saintess of the Nether Palace.

To be precise, it was a transaction between the Master of the Nether Palace and Jiang Wuming.

After obtaining the nameless mental energy attack secret technique, Jiang Wuming successfully comprehended the second stance, Flying Sword Art, before the two-star War God level competition. He then gained further insight into the third stance using the time advantage of the mysterious space before arriving at the Loulan Ancient City.

Five-Element Sword Formation?

The youth in white armor was deeply shaken, recognizing Jiang Wuming's mental attack technique.

This mental energy attack secret technique belonged to the Outer Realm, and it was well-known there, a required attack technique for many mental energy cultivators!

He had not expected Jiang Wuming to simultaneously cultivate both mental energy and martial arts, and to have cultivated his mental energy to such a degree, even employing an Outer Realm mental attack secret technique!

While the youth in white armor was in shock, the Five-Element Sword Formation was successfully cast. The five mental flying swords shone brilliantly, simultaneously striking at the youth's mental palace.

However—

The youth in white armor's mental palace flashed with white light, blocking all the sword radiance and remaining intact.

Then, the youth's mental form darted out from the palace. With five swift saber strikes, he shattered the five mental flying swords, causing the Five-Element Sword Formation to disintegrate.

The youth in white armor had resisted Jiang Wuming's mental energy attack with his mental willpower!

This outcome did not surprise Jiang Wuming!

He knew that after being suppressed by the world's rules, the youth in white armor still retained the strength of a one-star Phase Three War God.

His own mental energy cultivation was only at the ten-stage of one-star War God, insufficient to injure the youth in white armor with a mental attack!

Moreover, Jiang Wuming was unsure if the youth's mental willpower had also been weakened by the suppression of the world's rules.

Under such circumstances, his mental energy attack on the youth in white armor could only serve as a distraction!

He aimed to distract the youth from swinging his saber, then seize the opportunity to close in on him!

Close-quarters combat.

This was the only way he could kill the youth in white armor.

After all, he was only at the six-stage of two-star War God and could not perform qi detachment attacks.

The youth in white armor, on the other hand, had elevated his strength to the one-stage of three-star War God, capable of attacking from a distance.

At this moment, although he had not killed the youth in white armor with his mental energy attack, he had successfully reduced the distance between them from a hundred meters to fifty meters!

Concurrently, the blood and qi within his body boiled completely. His hands moved rapidly, forming seals, opening various portals within his body. Secret power surged out like a river, merging perfectly with the great river of true qi, and flowing towards the outside of Jiang Wuming's body.

"Rumble~"

The true qi, infused with secret power, manifested into bolts of lightning before Jiang Wuming. These lightning bolts appeared real, emanating terrifying energy fluctuations and emitting deafening thunderous roars.

As the thunder roared, centered around Jiang Wuming, currents of air swirled, converging to form a massive tornado.

The storm raged, the lightning flashed.

Lightning Tempest!

After using his mental energy attack as a distraction, Jiang Wuming held nothing back, unleashing his strongest killing move!

A few days ago, in the genius division of the Global Martial Arts Competition, he had used the "Lightning Tempest" to heavily injure Sean, a four-star Phase Three War God, and then used his mental energy to control Sean's spear, piercing Sean's heart.

Today, how would it fare against the youth in white armor, who was only a one-star Phase Three War God, when he unleashed the Lightning Tempest?

So strong!

Witnessing the lightning flashing within the massive tornado and feeling the terrifying energy fluctuations emanating from the Lightning Tempest, everyone from the Vanguard Corps behind Jiang Wuming, the soldiers from other corps in front of the ancient city, even the nine commanders like Ning Feng on the city wall, and the four-star War Gods on the peaks of the two mountains were astonished!

Although they had already inferred from the trust placed in Jiang Wuming by Zheng Yuandong and Wu Yong—who had not issued new orders even when the youth in white armor elevated his strength to one-star Phase Three War God—that Jiang Wuming might have a trump card, they were still utterly shocked when Jiang Wuming actually deployed it!

Even Zheng Yuandong, who was aware of Jiang Wuming's feats, was stunned by the sudden burst of combat power from Jiang Wuming!

"This…how is this possible?!"

At the same time, behind the youth in white armor, the black-armored soldiers were all dumbfounded.

Their eyes widened, staring fixedly at the moving Lightning Tempest, feeling the terrifying energy it emanated, completely disbelieving that this power came from a two-star War God!

The youth in white armor also found it unbelievable, but his true strength in the Outer Realm far surpassed that of a three-star War God, possessing extremely rich combat experience and terrifying combat instincts.

"Die!!"

While everyone, except Wu Yong, was shocked by the combat power Jiang Wuming had unleashed, the youth in white armor roared, gripping his saber with both hands. Facing the roaring Lightning Tempest, he fiercely unleashed a saber strike.

Boom!

With a swift motion, the saber energy, manifested from white true qi, resembled a crescent moon, cleaving towards the Lightning Tempest before the youth in white armor.

He intended to split the Lightning Tempest with a single strike and kill Jiang Wuming!

Boom!!

Immediately, a deafening roar echoed through the sky of the ancient battlefield.

The saber energy, manifested from white true qi, struck the Lightning Tempest. It was like a giant vessel encountering a whirlpool at sea, instantly being flung aside and sent soaring into the air.

The reason the Lightning Tempest ranked sixth among the Thunderous Treasure Arts was that this move, while attacking, also incorporated the true meaning of using an opponent's force against them, capable of weakening enemy attacks to the maximum extent.

At this moment, after the Lightning Tempest had repelled the white true qi saber energy, it only dimmed slightly.

Danger!

In this critical moment, the youth in white armor was deeply shaken, wanting to retreat immediately.

However—

It was too late!

Under everyone's watchful eyes, the youth in white armor, unable to dodge in time, was completely engulfed by the terrifying Lightning Tempest!
