When Uta completely shattered the shackles of the flesh, what was released was a vast and violent momentum.
Even in this battlefield, where swords of a hundred meters were flying everywhere, flames blazed across the earth, and ice edges rose to form mountain peaks, Uta's momentum was unique, like a prominent, red water column erupting from a turbid sea surface.
The average elites were fully invested in the resonance of energy, paying no heed to anything else. However, the select few powerhouses, such as the Lord of Amber City, were suddenly alarmed.
Instinctively they looked up, only to see remnants of light red energy waves, circularly spreading outwards above the Undead Legion, gradually dissipating.
The energy waves spread out in ring upon ring, extending from above the Undead Legion into the distance.
Faint up close, deep at a distance.
Like a tunnel that had been pierced through.
Beneath the Snake Person Aggregation, beside the giant lotus platform, the ground cracked with a thud, and intricate, spiderweb-like cracks spread symmetrically for twenty meters. In the center of the web-shaped cracks, there was a humanoid figure enveloped in dazzling red flames.
When the gaze of the Lord of Amber City followed, all he could see was this afterimage.
It was at this moment that the cracked earth collapsed with a thunderous crash, forming a round pit. Above the pit, there were waves of flame rising straight into the sky.
The high sky where energy tides surged, and flames clouded and ice crystals rained down, was covered in the countless arms of the Serpent Deity Aggregation.
The arms were as soft as satin, yet as massive as high-rise buildings, resembling a hundred-meter-long python.
Huge and domineering.
Dominant and flexible.
Under the resonance of the Army Soul, the whole army could move as one, its flexibility hardly inferior to that of an individual powerhouse. The speed at which they could gather energy was extremely fast; in the blink of an eye, giant blade glows of hundreds to two hundred meters could be raised.
However, the Hand of the Serpent Deity was faster, always able to strike first and crush every large-scale attack, shaking the Army Soul Corps. It was only due to the Fourth-order Strongmen standing at the front and using the power of the Army Soul to disperse the impact that they could briefly hold out.
There were other powerhouses who couldn't resonate with the Army Soul. They attempted to sneak attack from the side, only to be sent flying with heavy injuries with just a slight sweep from the Hand of the Serpent Deity.
No one could approach the Serpent Deity Aggregation, not until now.
Uta's entire body from bottom to top pierced through one of the Hands of the Serpent Deity. Shattered pythons spurted out from the hole, and one could vaguely see snake women with wide-open eyes. Their stares were chilling and terrifying.
However, Uta had always been indifferent to such things, as he was a successor of the Deliberate Boom Fist school. He ran along the Hand of the Serpent Deity, his eyes focused on the end of the snake path, on the coquettish yet eerie crystal on the forehead of the Serpent Deity Aggregation.
However, the response of the Serpent Deity Aggregation was faster.
On the snake path Uta was running on, an entire Hand of the Serpent Deity instantly disintegrated, countless pythons fluttered in the air, and Uta fell into the void, his body suddenly stalled.
At the same time, another Hand of the Serpent Deity, carrying an incomparable force, fell from the sky.
As if a meteorite was crashing!
Uta's current energy was nearly infinite, but he wouldn't collide head-on with a gargantuan entity like the Serpent Deity Aggregation. He stepped on a python, and the energy accumulated in his soles erupted like a rocket. The python shattered, and the compressed air beneath his foot became as thick and solid as the ground.
Uta left an afterimage.
The Hand of the Serpent Deity destroyed the afterimage and everything in the world.
Uta appeared on another Hand of the Serpent Deity. This time, he didn't aim for the core, he chose the next best thing...
Thud, thud, thud, thud——
Like crushing a bag of bubbles, the Hand of the Serpent Deity burst open with a popping sound, and the entangled pythons turned into a bloody mist. Even though the aggregation was regenerating at an astonishing rate, it was far slower than the speed at which Uta was attacking.
He continued to strike, sometimes stepping on the air to flash to a different location.
He shuttled through the encirclement and pursuit of the hands of the Serpent Deity, like dancing on the tips of knives.
Smash! Smash! Smash! Smash everything!
"It's One-Punch Martial Madness!"
Lord Canglang, who was leading an army, widened his eyes from a distance.
His gaze couldn't keep up with Uta's speed, but once he saw those wild and unparalleled afterimages, he would never forget them.
"He's stronger now, how is this possible!"
Could a powerhouse on the top of the Dragon Gate Leaderboard actually take another big step forward!? Was this Uta, the One-Punch Martial Madness, only half a step away from the legendary threshold as the legends said?
The Serpent Deity Aggregation was tragically immense, and its high energy level was unequaled even by a full-fledged Attendant Ascendant.
After all, it was a gathering of countless individuals.
Therefore, Uta could only injure it, but not kill it with one punch.
After all, he was only a newly ascended Fourth-order, newly entered epic-tier leader. He had his limits.
However, with his individual strength, Uta shattered several Hands of the Serpent Deity and distracted several others, greatly reducing the pressure on the entire Punishment Army.
"Now is the time, whoever still has their trump cards, hurry up and use them! This is our only chance. This general won't be able to hold on for much longer." crowed the Lord of Amber City.
Uta's energy was too violent, like a breached pond. Anyone with discerning eyes could see that this was a life-or-death move.
No, it was Burning Life!
This general couldn't possibly be entering the 'Extreme Sublimation State' using some sort of method, could he? Only then could their unruly power, which was beyond their rank and outside of the norm, be explained.
