CHAPTER 564: 564. REPEATED STRANGLING, REPEATED SHARPENING

Lu Li felt exhausted because his physical strength had dropped to 50%.

Although he was rapidly recovering, he needed to reach 90% to continue operating.

It would take about 6 seconds, during which he could only use Refining God techniques to counter the enemy crowd.

After two Puppets appeared, they headed straight to block the most threatening and front-runner, "Asur."

"Get out of the way!"

Asur swung his arms violently, smashing with the mountain-mass "Neutron Star" Arm Armor, sending the two Puppets flying and shattering a few fingers and ribs.

The bodies of the Second Grade Magical Treasure couldn’t withstand even a single blow, but they managed to block Asur momentarily, allowing three heavily armored black men to charge forward.

Lu Li raised his hand and pointed, with three dragon heads emitting golden sword beams that hit them directly, coming from the "Heavy Particle Accelerator Cannon."

The Magical Treasure particles impacted fiercely, and in less than a second, the constraints of "Electron Degenerate Pressure" on the Battle Armor failed.

The "Neutron Star Coating" shattered like a lightbulb, the wearers lost their protection, and the golden sword beams minced them into chunks.

However, with over 70 enemies, they did not care about this loss and continued to madly rush forward.

Lu Li used his Divine Soul to glide instantly, avoiding being surrounded by the enemy crowd.

Continuously using the "Heavy Particle Accelerator Cannon" would damage the Magical Treasure, so Lu Li had the Flying Swords congeal into a solid form to slash at the enemies.

In space, Flying Swords could easily reach a hundred times the speed of sound.

They were also quite intelligent, deliberately avoiding the heavily armored foes and striking at the oddly shaped aliens.

Like the "Rang Duo," these alien forms did not wear the "Neutron Star Battle Armor" and were immediately slashed, bursting explosively.

Blue and green liquids, in a state of weightlessness, coalesced into spherical droplets.

Some even drifted towards Lu Li, evaporated by streams of laser beams.

The star species continued their pursuit and blockade, firing energy strikes from chest and shoulder cannons, with a rain of colorful beams coming fiercely.

Fortunately, these were just common technological methods, limited by their size and power. As soon as they reached Lu Li, they were absorbed and devoured by a pair of translucent dragon wings.

This was precisely the energy absorption characteristic of "Annihilation," temporarily alleviating concerns about distant attacks.

But driven only by his Divine Soul, Lu Li’s speed plummeted to a hundred times the speed of sound, which was not considered fast in space, as nearly half of the star species could reach it.

Moreover, being pursued and blocked by over seventy people, it was hard to avoid being intercepted.

"Got you!"

Two individuals wearing streamlined Battle Armor, resembling Iron Man with blue hair, had frighteningly bright energy cores in their chests and accelerated to high speeds to intercept Lu Li.

"The original Angel will certainly shatter the Heresy!"

The two roared as their fists, coated with neutron star coating, suddenly slammed towards Lu Li’s head.

At this moment, only three seconds had passed, and his physical strength had recovered to 70%, not suited for combat.

Therefore, he fully materialized his pitch-black dragon wings and took their punches head-on.

These two star species, while not as strong as Ma Xinjie, were at a normal Martial Saint’s level.

Without the protection of the "Immortal Will," his dragon wings were smashed with huge cracks!

"Great! Kill him now!"

The morale of the crowd surged, and the citizens of the Divine Country watching the live broadcast also cheered!

At that moment, Lu Li’s "Body Light" suddenly shone brightly, and three dragon heads spewed out the blazing "Proton Focus Cannon," sweeping away the nearby enemies.

This was a standard energy strike, having no instant kill effect, nor did it cause any anomalies in the "Body Light."

The reason for this was because Lu Li was preparing to detonate the "Artificial Sun" and launch "Ten Directions Annihilation!"

Once bitten, twice shy, last time they detonated a sun with a diameter of 100 kilometers, this time it was doubled!

The star species had no idea, thinking it was just an energy furnace like their own, eager to tear Lu Li apart.

The two blue-haired Iron Men even punched simultaneously, completely shattering the dragon wings.

Shreds of wing membrane dissolved into specks of light within the vastness of space, and Lu Li’s figure paused abruptly!

Asur’s eyes brightened, thinking he had caught an opportunity, and charged straight at Lu Li with shoulders thrust forward.

In the boundless expanse of space, this strike didn’t look very imposing, like a brawl of brute strength.

But with a Battle Armor made entirely of neutron star material, the impact was comparable to the meteor that extinguished the dinosaurs and could sink half a continent!

The surrounding star species scattered in all directions, afraid of being accidentally injured.

Lu Li’s physical body had recovered to 80%, but he didn’t dodge, only his "Body Light" was so dazzling that it was blinding.

Everyone realized something was wrong, and the intelligent system further warned: [High-energy reaction detected]

This was exactly the "Artificial Sun" in full eruption, constrained by Divine Thought and Spirit Realm, focusing the explosion in one direction!

Asur swiftly dodged to the side, but in the next instant, a brilliant jet thirty kilometers in diameter blasted towards him!

With such a vast coverage, there was no escape, and Asur was instantly engulfed by the jet.

Twelve star species behind him were also violently swept away, and even a battleship further behind was hit.

This time, the Artificial Sun had a diameter of 200 kilometers, but the jet’s diameter had almost halved, precisely because of Lu Li’s constraints.

This maneuver wasn’t complex in principle, merely a directed blast. But concentrating the explosion at a single point increased its destructive power by more than ten times!

High Explosive Bombs might just tickle tanks, but the same charge in a "Concentrated Energy Warhead" could punch a hole right through a tank.

The twelve star species, merely clad in neutron star coated Battle Armors, dissolved and vanished in the blink of an eye.

That battleship managed to uphold its Protection Shield for just one second before it exploded violently amidst the jet.

Besides its power, the explosion of the sky’s sun also generated extreme pressure and heat.

In this high-energy environment, lighter atomic nuclei were compressed together, even forcibly infusing neutrons, creating elements all the way up to "iron" on the periodic table.

With Lu Li’s interference, they didn’t all erupt and leave, at least thirty percent remained within the Spirit Realm.

In just an instant, this 850,000-kilometer-wide ethereal realm became more real, more akin to the material universe.

Lu Li’s spirit soared: "Good! That’s right!"

Supreme Divine Skills aren’t meant for killing, but for helping cultivators grow and integrate—that is their true purpose.

"The power is still not enough, it couldn’t fuse elements beyond iron, nor expand the Spirit Realm."

"Let’s try detonating a sun with a diameter of 500 kilometers next!"

Lu Li was full of excitement, but currently, with the Heart Image wings damaged, recongregating the sun would take time, and it wasn’t immediately available.

But no matter, six seconds had already passed, and his physical strength had restored to 90%!

This was the current limit; perfect recovery would necessitate good rest and recuperation.

And with these, it was enough... among the stunned expressions of numerous star species, Lu Li’s "Immortal Golden Flame" flared up again!

Once this wave of energy was depleted, Refining God methods would recover.

What followed was a repeated cycle of slaughter and tempering!

"Angels of the Primordial fear nothing!"

Asur, shouting the slogan, flew up!

The Battle Armor made of neutron star material was unimaginably durable; he hadn’t died yet!

But Lu Li was glad to have a sturdy target to aim at.
