Chapter 842: Chapter 504: Turning Point

The strength of the Crying Hero far surpassed expectations, with the vast black mud restraining most of Li Changhe’s skills.

Facing him, the weapons of the Hundred-Headed Shooter would be infected by the black mud, becoming uncontrollable and unable to trigger, the Bone Gate couldn’t be summoned, and the Immortal Cavalry couldn’t be tainted with black mud.

It could be said that his proud ability to maneuver and attack from a distance was completely locked down.

The only way to deal with him was close-combat fighting. Perhaps the Hundred-Headed Shooter could still be effective at close range.

However, the opponent was the same. Moreover, both were well aware of each other’s combat rhythm, and once it came to close combat, there was a higher probability of being dragged until the end of Extraordinary Soldier’s time limit. This was not very advantageous for Li Changhe.

In that case... the only option was to win with a surprising tactic that the Crying Hero wouldn’t expect.

After making up his mind, Li Changhe took a deep breath as he faced the oncoming tide of black mud and, with his left hand, he took out the Sanction Nails and threw them directly into the sky like whipping them.

Then, gripping the saber tightly in his hands, he took a step using Shadow Step.

He appeared directly behind the Crying Hero, with his saber swinging vertically, bursting with a green light.

The general turned back, his cape fluttering, General’s Robe!

At the same time, from Li Changhe’s shadow, wide open mouths with large bloodied jaws emerged. It was Dog Brother.

Facing the Crying Hero, even the undying Tingdaros Hound sensed the deadly danger emanating from his presence.

This guy really wanted, desperately wanted to kill itself. What was more terrifying was that he had the ability to do so. Dog Brother, being a creature of time, had already seen its own timeline of being killed.

To eliminate risks, it now unleashed its furious onslaught without any reservations.

Yet facing the sudden assassination attempt, the Crying Hero remained extraordinarily calm.

Even though his right hand was broken and his left eye missing, he was somehow able to counter faster than Li Changhe could act. The moment Li Changhe stepped out with Shadow Step, the Crying Hero had already turned around and swung his saber.

Before Li Changhe’s saber could fall, the Crying Hero’s saber had already struck the middle of Li Changhe’s blade.

It was the ’point’ of force release from the saber, like when a boxer is about to throw a heavy punch and someone blocks his elbow. The green light of the General’s Robe scattered like fireworks.

And from the black mud at their feet, bronze spears shot out instantly, piercing the body of the Tingdaros Hound, which howled in pain, echoing through the land.

With his attack thwarted, Li Changhe remained unfazed. This was to be expected.

So, he took another step forward, switching from a vertical swing to a thrust with his saber directly at the Crying Hero’s brow, while his left hand reached upwards in a pulling motion. The three Sanction Nails previously thrown into the sky fell swiftly, pulled by the force of the Magnetic Gloves.

"Heh..." The Crying Hero was aware of Li Changhe’s intentions, there were three forms of attack, but in reality, only one mattered.

The Sanction Nails in the air were not to be feared, he could disrupt or infect them before they fell. Moreover, with Arrow-avoiding Protection, there was no need to worry at all.

The Tingdaros Hound was of no concern either; the beast was already pierced by bronze spears, with black mud infiltrating its Physique. Li Changhe’s control was slipping, and once he defeated Li Changhe, he would take good care of this beast.

He naturally loathed the Tingdaros Hound. At the foot of Yuezhou City, during that battle where fate was altered, it had betrayed him! The Crying Hero would never forgive it; what did it matter if it was undying? He was a killer of the undying!

And among these offensive moves, the real threat came from the close combat fighting of Li Changhe himself!

The Crying Hero’s left eye might have been blinded, but with the Hawk Eye Magic Eye, he could compensate the visual gap through the perspective of summoned black hawks. Thus, in close combat, he was not at much of a disadvantage.

However, the body of the Tingdaros Hound now blocked the view of the outside black hawks.

This left the Crying Hero with a vision impairment once again. Li Changhe was probably planning to use this as an opening to defeat him, right?

But... if Li Changhe could think of such tactics, how could the Crying Hero not?

Suddenly, the Crying Hero let go of the saber hilt, his left index and middle fingers tapping the blade of Li Changhe’s saber. The moment they touched, an even stronger black mud spread to the Hundred Generals’ Saber in Li Changhe’s hand.

This was... the forceful control of Black Mud Divinity! Anything infected by black mud could be analyzed and controlled by the user.

At that time, beneath Yuezhou City, it was with this move that Li Changhe had snatched away the Hundred Generals’ Saber and counter-killed God’s Chosen, Xue Shen.

And at this moment, he faced the same problem.

His Black Mud Divinity naturally couldn’t compare to the once-demigod Crying Hero. The moment he grasped the saber, he lost control of it. No matter how much strength he exerted, he couldn’t break free from the Crying Hero’s two fingers.

Moreover, a tremendous force pressed down in an instant, causing Li Changhe’s body to sink involuntarily, and the black mud beneath his feet turned into quicksand, instantly engulfing his calves.

That was the Pressure Throne!

In the Crying Hero’s timeline, a Chaos God’s Chosen had attempted an assassination.

He had planned to use this method of obstructing the vision.

But in the end, his weapon was taken, and he was buried alive in the black mud. He suffered excruciating torture for three days and two nights, repeatedly begging the Crying Hero to kill him, repeatedly offering to abandon his faith and become the Crying Hero’s most loyal dog. Finally, the Crying Hero granted his wish, disassembled all his bones, and dragged him up the city walls to be ground into a bloody froth.

And this time, the tactic was just as successful.

Looking at Li Changhe, whose legs were sunk in the mire, the Crying Hero snorted coldly and raised his leg to deliver a heavy soccer kick to the Bronze Mask on Li Changhe’s face.

He refrained from using the blade, which was the last bit of his sanity. Otherwise, he would have cut off Li Changhe’s neck with a single stroke.

However... that kick sent Li Changhe’s head flying...

The Crying Hero himself was stunned for a moment. Had he not controlled his strength?

’My friend! Did you kill him?’ The crystal skull at his waist let out a terrified cry. This human was supposed to be part of the plan, so why kill him?

The Crying Hero instantly realized that the force of that kick was not enough to break the neck of a main Physique player. And the sensation just now... was merely kicking off the helmet!

Could it be this guy learned some kind of lowering magic in this timeline? He surely couldn’t have suddenly shortened his stature, right?

The next second, the Crying Hero heard a deep, low laugh. It was a woman’s voice, and it was very unfamiliar.

The woman’s voice said,

’Causal Severance!’

In an instant, within that void of the Spirit World, a massive shadow with sharp teeth suddenly appeared before the black throne, baring its fangs at the Evil God seated upon it!

That was...

Big Lead!

Meanwhile, on the battlefield of the physical world.

From inside Li Changhe’s helmetless Mountain Pattern Armor, a slender and pale arm suddenly extended.

And the helmet that had been kicked into mid-air reshaped itself and was reforged.

Into a bronze short spear burning with green flames, which instantly thrust toward the Crying Hero’s forehead.

This was an attack from both the Real World and the Spirit World!

This was also Li Changhe’s turning point!

The Crying Hero, understanding everything as he looked at the long-haired girl within the Mountain Pattern Armor, roared out loud,

"You motherf..."

Before he could finish, the three Sanction Nails in the sky were twisted and dropped by his Arrow-avoiding Protection.

And the bronze short spear... struck heavily against the Crying Hero’s black mask.

’Boom!’

The Hundred-Headed Shooter!
