Since he understood the mystery within, it was no longer difficult to break it. As long as he remained steady and did not seek a quick victory, he could drag it out with a strategy of attrition, waiting for the enemy to exhaust themselves.
During this time, he could continuously attack with gravitational strikes to deplete the vital energy of the Nine Calamity Sword Master. Once the opponent was nearly exhausted, capturing them would be effortless!
Although the Law Sovereign was unwilling to waste time, the best strategy against Chu Yang at this moment was to engage in a battle of attrition, wearing him down. Given the Law Sovereign's cautious nature, he certainly would not take reckless risks.
Chu Yang launched four consecutive attacks, unceasingly striking and forming an extremely tight defensive circle that protected Tan Tan and the others behind him. However, the Law Sovereign had absolutely no interest in Tan Tan and the others at this moment!
His sole focus was on Chu Yang alone, attacking with an exceptionally overwhelming force concentrated on him.
If the Nine Calamity Sword Master were to die, the core would be gone, and the so-called unparalleled Nine Calamity would dissipate into thin air. At that time, taking them down one by one would be as easy as flipping a hand!
As for the individuals before him, each was seriously injured, and it was impossible for them to recover in a short time; they could hardly form any combat capability. As long as he dealt with the Nine Calamity Sword Master, the rest could be easily crushed!
Right now, the most crucial point was Chu Yang, only Chu Yang.
Conversely, even if he killed all the people on the ground, if Chu Yang escaped, that would lead to endless trouble!
Not targeting anyone other than Chu Yang would best restrain him. Only by doing so could he drag Chu Yang into a prolonged battle, wear him down, and ultimately eliminate him!
The Law Sovereign deeply understood the terror of the Nine Calamity Sword Master. In this moment, he attacked with all his strength without reservation, aiming to consume all of Chu Yang's power in the shortest time possible.
Chu Yang endured continuous violent shocks. The effects of the ninefold pill had just begun to spread, but it was instantly squeezed to the limit. From the start of the battle, under the Law Sovereign's frenzied attacks, Chu Yang had once again reached the critical point!
He could only support for a mere breath's worth of time before being squeezed to the brink!
What terrifying attacking power. What sharp and targeted strategies. No wonder he was the Nine Calamity Sage of his time!
Chu Yang gasped for air, feeling as if fire was burning in his lungs. With each breath, he felt a stinging pain from his lungs to his throat, accompanied by a salty, sweet, and even fishy taste. That was the taste of blood.
Even looking out, his vision had become almost blurry… The bones in his body were cracking, seeming as if they would break at any moment.
And the Law Sovereign's attacks were still pouring in like a storm, showing no signs of fatigue!
Chu Yang could no longer hold on; he was on the verge of collapse.
Strength indeed does not equate to willpower; human strength can sometimes be exhausted. The Nine Calamity Sword Master was still human, with his own limits.
He would rather be shattered to pieces than fail to protect those around him, but right now, even if he were to be crushed into a million pieces, he could no longer safeguard them!
He might not even be able to protect himself!
He was nearly powerless!
"Crack!"
In the Law Sovereign's next attack, Chu Yang's right leg broke with a snap, and soon, like frying beans, the sounds of his bones breaking echoed continuously.
Boom!
The Law Sovereign delivered his final palm strike!
Chu Yang's chest erupted with a cacophony of sounds. His sternum and ribs shattered. Blood spewed from his mouth. His hands were crushed from fingers to shoulders, and both legs were no longer intact.
He flew out like a broken sack. With such injuries, he was only slightly better off than when facing the heavenly demons; he was fundamentally at the limit of what a “human” could endure, and any further would risk his life!
