"It seems this divine power is just so-so. It's effective against people from the Divine Sect, but for me, it's like a chicken rib, something I can do without."
Ning Beichen muttered to himself. He put down his sword. Throughout the fight, he hadn't used his Grandmaster strength at all, only the divine power within the hammer and sword to combat the two.
At this moment, the ugly-looking man stamped his foot on the ground, letting out a roar. A white light enveloped him. He was seen brandishing his long sword and shield, charging towards Ning Beichen like a surging wave.
This time, Ning Beichen didn't mess around with divine power anymore. Releasing his Grandmaster strength, he transformed into a cannonball. With just one punch, he dispersed the wave.
With a thunderous boom.
The ugly man, seeing Ning Beichen charging at him, was so terrified that his soul seemed to fly out of his body. He hurriedly raised his shield, intending to block Ning Beichen's attack.
But Ning Beichen was no longer playing games. His Grandmaster punch landed directly on the shield, emitting a deafening roar. Then, the seemingly indestructible shield in the ugly man's hand was shattered into countless pieces by Ning Beichen's single punch.
The ugly man was in a panic. He immediately swung his long sword and unleashed all his divine power.
A burst of light exploded like the sun. The beautiful blonde woman could only hear someone's screams within the light, which made her spirits incredibly tense. She wanted to attack, but the sun-like radiance made it impossible for her to see anything inside.
The light appeared as quickly as it vanished. When it dissipated, the ugly-looking man had turned into a puddle of mud, his shield shattered and his sword broken in two.
Ning Beichen stood before the mud, a faint glow shimmering around him.
"Divine power is nothing more than this!"
Ning Beichen snorted coldly as he looked at the man who had become a puddle of mud.
"Now only you remain."
Ning Beichen looked up at the blonde woman and said.
The blonde woman appeared somewhat flustered.
The ugly man had been forced to use a suicidal attack. In her estimation, even if that man didn't die, he would be severely injured. Yet, the man before her seemed completely unharmed.
"I alone am enough to kill you."
The tall, blonde woman suppressed her fear, raised her weapon, and pulled the trigger, aiming at Ning Beichen.
With a bang.
A cloud of smoke, like a shockwave, rushed towards Ning Beichen.
The white smoke, imbued with divine power, transformed into an angel with blood-red wings, viciously lunging at Ning Beichen.
"An angel?"
Ning Beichen glanced at this thing. It gave him a peculiar feeling. He hadn't expected her gun could fire something like this.
However, Ning Beichen didn't feel any fatal danger from this thing, so he didn't even bother to dodge. As the winged angel approached, Ning Beichen grabbed it with his five fingers and caught it in his hand.
But soon, Ning Beichen sensed a danger and hastily flung the winged angel upwards with great force. Following this, there was a deafening explosion as a giant firework burst in the sky.
"All flash, no substance!"
Ning Beichen scoffed at the exploding spectacle in the sky.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
At this moment, the blonde woman with a model-like figure fired three shots at Ning Beichen in quick succession.
Each shot produced a winged angel, and the three winged angels converged on Ning Beichen.
"Bèng Miè!"
Ning Beichen roared.
His fist unleashed a destructive force, and the three winged angels were shattered by Ning Beichen's punch.
Bèng Miè evolved from Bēng Quán (Collapsing Fist), emphasizing striking after the opponent attacks, but its power is a hundred times that of Bēng Quán.
Just as the blonde woman was about to fire at Ning Beichen again, Ning Beichen's body blurred into an afterimage and charged towards her.
The blonde woman's pupils contracted. Whatever she did, her gun suddenly emitted a golden light, and her weapon transformed from a gun into a hand cannon.
The blonde woman pressed a button.
The hand cannon fired a dense barrage of bullets at Ning Beichen, which roared towards him.
But she had underestimated the defense of a Grandmaster.
No, she didn't even know Ning Beichen was a Grandmaster.
These so-called bullets couldn't stop Ning Beichen's advance. In an instant, Ning Beichen was in front of her and struck with Bèng Miè.
The blonde woman screamed and was sent flying backward over ten meters, feeling pain all over her body.
"Huh! Not dead?"
Ning Beichen was surprised that the blonde woman was unharmed.
After all, the ugly man from before had been reduced to a puddle of mud by his single Bèng Miè.
At this moment, a crisp sound was heard, and the blonde woman's clothes exploded. This was the residual power of Bèng Miè, a secondary damage.
Ning Beichen saw a silver armor appear on the woman's body. However, this silver armor was already covered in cracks. It was likely this armor that had saved her life.
Although the woman didn't die, having been struck by Ning Beichen's Bèng Miè, she was close to death, lying on the ground unable to move.
Ning Beichen walked towards her. The blonde woman was terrified, wanting to escape but unable to move.
Ning Beichen reached her, grabbed her, and pulled off her armor, eliciting a scream from the woman.
Ning Beichen, ignoring the perfect body beneath the armor, focused on the armor itself. He discovered that, as he had suspected, this armor stored that divine power.
It was a pity, though. The armor couldn't withstand a single blow from a Grandmaster's Bèng Miè. It was already covered in cracks. Even with some divine power left inside, this armor was likely unusable.
"Tell me, what is the function of the Holy Grail?"
Ning Beichen asked the blonde woman, looking down at her.
"I've already told you, the Holy Grail is a symbol of the Divine Sect. It has no practical use in the hands of an outsider."
The blonde woman, having been stripped bare by Ning Beichen's Bèng Miè, showed no embarrassment and glared fiercely at Ning Beichen as she replied.
"Do I look like an idiot? If you refuse to speak, it means you are of no further use to me, and I will have to kill you."
Ning Beichen said with a cold smile.
"I told you..."
Ning Beichen interrupted the blonde woman as she began to speak.
"Call someone. I'll wait here and see how many people from your Divine Sect I can kill."
The blonde woman was stunned, not expecting Ning Beichen to be so confident.
"You really want me to call someone?"
"Call them."
Ning Beichen replied with unwavering conviction.
"Then I will."
The blonde woman thought Ning Beichen was bluffing, but Ning Beichen remained motionless, showing no intention of stopping her.
