Peerless Immortal Emperor in City

Chapter 590 - 589 Are You Looking Down on Me!? (9th Update)

The heir of Lancelot died at the hands of Qin Xuantian!

This was actually no secret amongst the Transcendents in England. After all, the successors of the Knights of the Round Table were quite renowned. The death of any such figure was no small matter, and news would spread quickly.

As a fellow successor of the Knights of the Round Table, Gao Wen certainly knew about this. However, the relationship between the Knights of the Round Table was actually not close. Considering this was an organization passed down for thousands of years, each title had, over the long eons, come to represent an independent power or family. It was already quite an achievement that they did not fight among themselves.

Regarding Lancelot's death at Qin Heng's hands, to Gao Wen, it only meant that Lancelot—such a waste—was simply unworthy to be counted among the ranks of the Knights of the Round Table alongside him! To the invincible Gao Wen, this was simply a disgrace, and now he was determined to wash away this shame!!

CLANG! CLANG! CLANG!

As Gao Wen rushed towards Qin Heng, the golden light sword in his hand emitted a series of explosive sounds, as if countless swords were clashing. At that moment, the large hall seemed to transform into a battlefield where armies clashed!! The sounds of slaughter were brutal!! The roar of armored cavalry and golden chariots thundered!!

Gao Wen burst forth with a brilliant azure light. A set of Golden Armor covering his entire body materialized upon him, and a shield sparkling with Starlight appeared in his empty left hand!!

"Combat! It was never just about one's own strength. The sword and shield in hand, as well as the armor one wears, all can decisively influence the outcome of a battle!!"

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

Having donned the armor and picked up the shield, Gao Wen became like a primeval behemoth. His aura was fierce to the extreme. His mere movements seemed to carry the momentum to crush everything in his path!! It was as if even towering mountains before him would be trampled into rubble, and vast oceans filled by his passage. Such was his incomparable, invincible aura!!

The invincible Gao Wen!!

He Xian Gu and Wang Lingguan were extremely shocked by this scene. They could clearly feel that the oppressive aura emanating from Gao Wen now was more than ten times stronger than when he was suppressing them!!

"Treasure Weapons! These are comparable to pinnacle Semi-Saint Treasure Weapons!" He Xian Gu exclaimed, shouting to Qin Heng, "Mr. Xuantian, be careful! The armor on this guy and the shield in his hand are both pinnacle Semi-Saint Treasure Weapons!!"

"Despicable and shameless! Aren't you a Knight of the Round Table? How could you, clad in armor and wielding a shield and sword, fight against the unarmed Mr. Xuantian!" Wang Lingguan also panicked, directly shouting his condemnation.

In his view, Gao Wen was far, far too shameless!! For a Semi-Saint of the Celestial Rankings to fight someone at the peak of Innate while wearing pinnacle Semi-Saint armor and carrying a pinnacle Semi-Saint shield—it was truly too shameless!! It was like agreeing to a fair duel, only to find your opponent showing up with an AK-47 and a bulletproof vest while you were barehanded!! Utterly shameless!!

"Ridiculous! Why did humans evolve to become the dominant species? It's because they learned to use tools!!" As Gao Wen charged towards Qin Heng, he scoffed, "Treasure Weapons are also forged by humans, so why can't I use them? Qin Xuantian, now let me see just how strong you, the 'greatest of all time,' really are!!"

The moment his words fell...

HUM!

Gao Wen swung the golden light sword in his hand. All at once, he seemed to surge in stature a thousandfold, transforming into a primordial giant god. Wielding a great sword, he slashed an indestructible beam of light at Qin Heng!!

"Mr. Xuantian, be careful!!" He Xian Gu and Wang Lingguan hurriedly warned.

In their eyes, the power of this sword light was simply terrifying to the extreme. So much so that even they, at the peak of Innate, dared not look directly at it!! They felt that merely looking at this sword light might blind them. If swept by its residual energy, they feared being sliced into countless fragments, leaving no intact corpse behind!! Too strong! This Gao Wen is truly too powerful, especially after donning the armor and picking up the shield!! A Semi-Saint of the Celestial Rankings, when equipped with Treasure Weapons of the same tier, received an enhancement that wasn't merely additive but exponential—strengthening them by several, even more than ten, times!! Just like Gao Wen now!! So powerful that he has far exceeded the limits his own strength could achieve!! Mr. Qin Xuantian might really be in danger!

He Xian Gu and Wang Lingguan were extremely worried. Xia Shuang, standing beside them, also clutched the fabric over her heart, looking at Qin Heng with immense concern, fearing he might get hurt. After all, the strength Gao Wen now displayed was truly too powerful, too terrifying!!

"Qin Xuantian! How will you dodge this sword strike?!" Gao Wen laughed boisterously.

At that instant, his sword of light was already nearing Qin Heng, seemingly about to strike home. It felt as if, in the next moment, it could cleave this world-renowned powerhouse in two!

Just at that moment!

Qin Heng suddenly extended a finger, lightly flicking at the sword beam Gao Wen had slashed towards him!!

He actually intended to meet Gao Wen's sword light with a single finger!!

"Qin Heng!!"

"Mr. Xuantian!!"

Xia Shuang, He Xian Gu, and Wang Lingguan were aghast. This was far too arrogant! Gao Wen was no ordinary Semi-Saint. What on earth is Mr. Xuantian thinking?!

Gao Wen's fury surged, his aura swelling once more! "You're courting death!!"

The power of the sword light intensified, its edge becoming even more terrifying. Each wisp of Sword Qi that escaped could easily split a Navy Warship in half! The power reached an extreme of terror!!

CLANG!

Suddenly, a crisp sound resonated as the finger Qin Heng extended collided with the sword light Gao Wen had unleashed!

Instantly!

The previously dazzling and supremely imposing golden sword light directly disintegrated!!

Qin Heng's casually extended finger was like that of a supreme Daoist Master, a digit extended from the very fundamental source of the Dao. Devoid of any worldly impurity, it reigned supreme above all laws and paths!!

BOOM!

A deafening roar erupted. Before Gao Wen's disbelieving eyes, the sword light he had unleashed with all his might disintegrated inch by inch, rapidly vanishing. Qin Heng's finger was like a force of nature, relentless and invincible!!

"How is this possible?!" Gao Wen's eyes widened, unable to believe what was happening before him!!

RUMBLE!

Just then, another roar erupted as the scattered power from Gao Wen's defeated sword light once more shook the foundations of the Beijing Expo Center! This terrifying force bombarded the surroundings, causing the floor of the great hall to crack and its tiles to shatter. Even the walls developed a web of horrifying fissures!! The entire Expo Center looked as if it was about to collapse!!

However, even though the main hall of the Expo Center was shaken to such an extent, it still didn't collapse. It was as if an invisible force held its structure together, forcibly preventing its ruin!

"Qin Xuantian, you actually diverted power to keep this building from collapsing?!" A look of utter disbelief appeared on Gao Wen's face; he was completely astonished.

The entire Beijing Expo Center covered millions of square meters!! The architectural structure was incredibly complex!! Qin Xuantian actually diverted power to preserve such a vast building's stability while fighting, even maintaining its original structural form!! What kind of power is this?!

While Gao Wen's heart reeled in amazement, he also felt an even greater sense of insult. He roared furiously, "Qin Xuantian, are you looking down on me?! You're courting death!!!"

BOOM!!

Golden light surged to the heavens! Gao Wen's aura suddenly intensified severalfold!!!
