Chapter 929 The Power of Profound Truths
Chapter 929 The Power of Profound Truths
At this moment, Kui Niu was no longer just playing around with them; the power of this sword strike was enough to ignite his fighting spirit.
"Good timing, watch out for my hammer."
The bull brandished its great hammer, ready to clash head-on with Noah.
Meanwhile, the other heroes in Noah's team also unleashed their ultimate techniques.
Magic, swordsmanship, and domain—the perfect coordination between the three meant that at this moment, this team of heroes was not a team, but rather a single entity.
In Chen Cheng's vision and senses, the intentions of the five people changed in an instant, merged with each other, and transformed into a state similar to that of Chen Cheng and Sheli in the present moment.
The ultimate technique unleashed at that moment is no longer a simple accumulation of power values, but a perfect fusion of proportions.
In that instant, their power seemed to have broken through some kind of limit, truly achieving the ability to threaten demigod-level life with only epic-level power.
"Good thing you came. I, Old Niu, am not afraid of anything else, but I can hold my own."
At this moment, Kui Niu's muscles bulged, and he swung a large hammer in one hand while punching repeatedly with the other.
The deafening collision and the resulting shockwaves completely ravaged the primeval forest, turning the surrounding area of dozens of miles into a desolate battlefield.
As the smoke cleared, Noah and his group of five had left their starting position and retreated to the edge of the ruins. Kui Niu, still holding his hammer, stood there with a smile on his face.
Noah was panting heavily. Although there were no visible wounds on his body, his hand holding the sword was trembling slightly. This was not because he was afraid, but because of the shockwave generated by the collision of the sword and hammer during their fight.
He steadied himself, channeling the shockwave from his hands into the ground beneath his feet.
To others, the ground he was standing on appeared to have been struck by a tremendous force for no apparent reason, cracking and sinking downwards.
Not only Noah was feeling unwell, but the others also felt a churning sensation within their bodies.
Noah did not swing his sword again, but instead sheathed it.
"Thank you, senior, for your advice."
Kui Niu weighed the large hammer in his hand, then hoisted it back onto his back, and laughed heartily:
"You guys are quite impressive. You actually managed to force me to use my true strength. It seems you are not just all talk."
At the last moment, Kui Niu used demigod-level power other than his domain to avoid a complete defeat.
Noah and his allies are only at the Epic level, but the fact that they were able to force the Beast to this level is enough to prove their strength.
After all, the gap between a demigod and an epic-level being is much greater than the gap between an ordinary person and an epic-level being.
One is still just a human, while the other is already a demigod.
When Noah and the others heard that the Bull had used all its strength, it had only forced the Bull to use its full power, they were nothing but shocked.
They bear the name of heroes. Don't be fooled by their seemingly brainless, overpowered demeanor; their reputation and strength are truly earned through battle.
Their realms may not be the highest, the peak of the epic level, but their strength is absolutely unparalleled.
Together, they formed a heroic squad that had historically defeated mythical beasts and evil dragons comparable to gods on numerous occasions.
Yet, even with all that, they still managed to force Kui Niu to use his true power.
At that moment, Noah's face flushed red, whether from excitement or shame. He looked at the bull with intense eyes, and then asked, word by word, with utmost seriousness:
"Excuse me, senior, are you a deity?"
Upon hearing Noah's question, Lifia and the other heroes in the hero's party all looked at Noah with surprise, wondering why he would ask such a question to Kui Niu.
When Noah saw that the bull did not answer, he solemnly said again:
"Senior must be a god. To be able to withstand the combined attack of the five of us so easily, senior must be a god."
Upon hearing this, Lifia and the others looked at Kui Niu with astonishment, because in their understanding, Noah was right; only a god could withstand the combined attack of the five of them.
At this moment, Chen Cheng, who had been paying close attention to Noah and the others, spoke up. He had no interest in playing the hero's bond game with Noah and the others.
Through Noah's questions and the reactions of Lifia and the others, he discovered that they were unaware of the demigod level.
Therefore, Chen Cheng directly interrupted and asked:
"Do you think he is a god? Don't you know that above your current epic level, there is a legendary level?"
Chen Cheng's question wasn't just asking if Noah and the others knew about the legendary level, but also whether the power level classification in their world was the same as that on Carmack's continent.
Noah answered without hesitation:
"We five heroes have already surpassed the Epic level in our cultivation. We don't know anything about the Legendary level, we only know that above the Epic level is the Hero level."
"Does the senior know about realms above us? The legendary level should be the realm of gods, since only gods can be called legendary."
Noah started his self-consoling, rambling monologue again, just like in the fantasy novel "Dragon Overlord."
Chen Cheng, however, had thought things through clearly, but needed to verify them, so he spoke up:
"Is what you mean by 'Hero-level' the ability for all of you to use that kind of ultimate technique?"
Noah nodded and said:
"Indeed, only by reaching the level of a hero and taking an oath under the statue of a god in the royal capital can we comprehend our own profound mysteries."
Chen Cheng stroked his chin, then continued to ask:
"From what I've observed in your battle just now, it seems that your profound techniques cannot be used casually. Instead, they can only be unleashed when you've fought the enemy for a period of time and your fighting spirit has reached its peak."
"As expected of a senior, you saw through our secret at a glance."
"The ultimate technique is also known as the means to reverse everything in the final battle. It can only be used when we are facing a powerful enemy and are on the verge of death, or when our fighting spirit is at its highest."
After receiving confirmation from Noah, Chen Cheng could only complain that the text found by that damned divine thought was so clichéd, even including the ultimate comeback plot of a protagonist who is overpowered by all.
"In that case, use your ultimate technique on me again. Perhaps I can find a way for you to break through to the legendary level through your ultimate technique."
Noah wanted to say that he didn't have enough fighting spirit against Chen Cheng right now, but the next moment a blade flashed by, almost grazing his neck.
In an instant, his fighting instincts as a hero erupted, his ultimate battle intent surged, and he activated the Dragon-Slaying Heavenly Slash technique, which represented the hero's belief in slaying dragons.
Because it was the main target of the profound meaning, Chen Cheng's feelings at this moment were much stronger than when he was just observing.
But when he actually saw how the power of the profound technique was generated, his expression instantly turned extremely ugly.
He prevented Noah from actually unleashing his ultimate technique. At that moment, Sheli, who was in sync with him, used Shadow Fiend to teleport in front of Noah and interrupted his ultimate technique.
At the same time, he used his sword intent to launch a mental severing attack, cutting off a portion of Noah's fighting spirit.
