"Is this guy really planning to do this?" Yufeng exclaimed, hesitating to approach. He said to the others, "Should we retreat for now and take revenge later? This state he's in shouldn't last long."
Choosing to seek revenge later when facing an undefeatable foe is a wiser option.
Preserving one's strength for future use is the strategy here.
Even though it is frustrating, for Yufeng and the others, who are powerless to stop Xu Fu, it is the only option. Charging in blindly would only result in certain death.
However, Xiao Wu remained unmoved. In an instant, her figure disappeared, and by the time the others saw clearly, she had leapt into the air, heading straight for the Celestial Giant.
All of this happened in the blink of an eye.
"Isn't this a bit reckless?" Yu tianheng turned to look at Huo Wu, but she remained calm, as if she was not surprised by Xiao Wu's actions.
"Don't worry," Huo Wu signaled for everyone to stay quiet. "She has a powerful move up her sleeve."
Just then, Xiao Wu's entire body erupted with energy as vast as an ocean. Her intense blood energy surged upwards, forming a long river that spanned hundreds of meters. Her powerful soul force permeated the air, making it seem as if it were infused with a refined quality. Her immense mental strength shone like the stars, intertwining with her soul force and blood energy.
In this moment, it felt both eternal and fleeting.
Her blood energy shaped a massive body, her soul force wove through this body like a net, and her mental strength became the brain, controlling everything around it.
Meanwhile, Xiao Wu's real body had merged into the forehead of the giant, making it seem as if the enormous figure had gained consciousness and began to move.
At that moment, the Celestial Giant was about to step on Xiaohai City, but the soldiers in the city, including Ge Long, no longer panicked. Instead, they stared in awe at the giant's back.
The nearly sky-high giant was so colossal and beautiful. Unlike the Celestial Giant's previous brutality, seeing it for the first time seemed to calm people's hearts immediately.
How strong was it? Ge Long and the others did not know, but they felt their flesh, soul force, and spirits tremble, resonating with the Soft Boned Law's presence, as if it were a divine being of the world.
Over the past two years, Xiao Wu had refined the Soft Boned Law, enabling her to construct bodily organs with blood energy, build meridians with soul force, and create a brain with mental strength.
Though not perfect, this improved Soft Boned Law no longer lasted only a minute as it did during its initial use but could now be sustained for up to three minutes.
The Soft Boned Law acted swiftly, pressing down on the Celestial Giant's head, yanking it away from Xiaohai City before it could take another step. Then, with a furious punch enveloped in blazing fire, she struck.
Boom! The punch created a sonic boom, driving the Celestial Giant's head deep into the ground. The resulting dust cloud surged outward, reaching hundreds of meters high.
Inside Xiaohai City, Ge Long and the others felt the entire city shake, but fortunately, the Blue Silver Emperor had wrapped around the damaged buildings, preventing any collapses.
Outside Xiaohai City, Huo Wu, Guang Ling, and the others retreated nearly five hundred meters to endure the intense wind and resist the grayish-yellow dust.
From their vantage point, the thousand-meter tall Soft Boned Law seemed like a senior bullying a lower-grade student compared to the five-hundred-meter tall Celestial Giant.
The only difference was that the "lower-grade student" did not whimper.
Sweat dripped from Yufeng's forehead as he swallowed nervously and asked, "What level of strength has Xiao Wu... sister reached? Why does she seem even fiercer than the team leader?"
"This is Xiao Wu's seventh soul skill: the Soft Boned Law," Guang Ling explained. "In this state, her power is comparable to a level 98 expert. If she uses her fusion rings and martial soul true body, her combat power can rival the peerless and even surpass it."
Surpass the peerless?
"Does that mean she's at level 100?"
Yu tianheng was stunned. Even though he lived near Martial Soul City and frequently went on missions with Dugu Yan to gain combat experience, he never expected Xiao Wu, who had not faced many life-and-death battles, to possess such terrifying strength. Is this what researchers are capable of? Truly terrifying!
"Vice-captain, could you also unleash such power?" Yufeng asked, swallowing nervously and feeling his scalp tingle.
"Not as powerful as her," Huo Wu admitted, then turned to Guang Ling. "However, in terms of lethality, Guang Ling is the strongest among us."
Guang Ling... "sister"?
Shimo, Shimo, Yufeng, and Oslo exchanged puzzled glances.
Isn't Huo Wu older than Guang Ling? Why call her 'sister'?
Yu tianheng wasn't surprised. He knew about the relationships between Tang San and the four women. By seniority, Huo Wu should be the fourth, and titles like 'sister' and 'younger sister' were more about familiarity and less about actual age.
Boom!
The ground shook again as the Celestial Giant struggled to fend off Xiao Wu's punch. It raised its head and got up, roaring angrily at Xiao Wu.
Although the Celestial Giant was five hundred meters shorter than Xiao Wu, it was still a solid level 98, not much different from the Soft Bone Law in terms of strength. Its body was just a bit more ethereal, and its soul force was somewhat lower in quality.
Facing Xiao Wu, who was nearly half a head taller, the Celestial Giant showed no fear. Instead, it raised its arms, gathering a brilliant light in the form of a radiant star.
Seeing this, Xiao Wu did not wait for the opponent to charge up. After all, whether she dodged or withstood the attack, the aftermath would wreak havoc on the nearby beings.
As the opponent prepared to launch the star-shaped light, the Soft Boned Law seemed to teleport, grabbing the giant's arms and lifting them up forcefully.
The white beam shot skyward, dispersing the clouds above.
"What?!"
In that moment, the Celestial Giant had no time to react, unable to comprehend how the Soft Bone Law had appeared so suddenly.
Such a massive body should have caused some airflow with its movement, which he would have definitely sensed. But why didn't he?
It was because Xiao Wu had used her spatial domain.
Within this domain, she could teleport at will. Unless one had divine-level power, it was impossible to detect her movements.
"Domain-type skills?"
The Celestial Giant realized something, gritting its teeth. "Using a domain in this state? I don't believe you can maintain it for long."
The Celestial Giant had its own domain, but using it in its current state would cause its form to collapse. The consumption was beyond what its current injured state could endure.
However, Xiao Wu's consumption was minimal because her spatial domain was linked to the Spirit Beast Illusion, which in turn was connected to the Starry Sky World.
She only needed to expend soul power to sustain the domain.
Even if the consumption were significant, the Blue Silver Emperor's leaves spread throughout Xiaohai City could recharge her at any time.
