Chapter 497: Three Heroes vs. Lute (Part 2)
"Looks like another strange one has shown up..." Lute mused thoughtfully, watching Xiao Tan approach.
"Haa... phew..." Feng Bu Jue quickly steadied his breathing. "If you'd arrived just a little later, it might've gotten dicey for me."
"Even though I saved you from immediate danger..." Xiao Tan added, "I don't think it solves the fundamental problem, does it?"
"No worries", Feng Bu Jue replied. "I got caught earlier for specific reasons. I still have strength left in reserve."
Before the two could exchange more than four or five brief sentences, Lute's severed arm had already regenerated.
Suddenly, her figure blurred as she instantly closed the distance to Feng Bu Jue's front.
"Do you ever draft your boasts before making them?" Lute lashed out with her single arm, attacking Feng Bu Jue again.
Suddenly, the air turned a faint crimson.
Feng Bu Jue instantly activated the Spirit Sense Body Technique - Modified, retreating rapidly. "You're really addicted to grabbing me, huh..."
"Hmph... How many times do you think you can dodge like that?" Lute scoffed coldly. "My speed is ultimately faster than yours. Just one minute... That's all I need..."
"Hey." A new voice suddenly interrupted.
For the first time, Lute's expression shifted to genuine surprise.
"Your opponent..." The man had wild crimson hair and eyes burning with ferocity, "is me!"
Boom—
A common straight punch unleashed the force of a siege cannon.
Caught off guard, Lute took the blow to her ribs. In the next instant, her blood and bones began disintegrating.
Tian Tian Gui Xiao's heavy punch shattered Lute's flesh into tatters, breaking bones and tearing muscles apart.
This unexpected turn stunned everyone present.
Yet Lute's regeneration speed equally shocked them all. Her fragmented physical form soared skyward, reconstructing itself in three seconds with impossible speed.
"Not only her body, but even her clothes and hairstyle restored flawlessly?" Feng Bu Jue murmured, gazing at the sky. Something else seemed to occur to him.
This time's regeneration did reveal something. Her previous self-healing resembled semi-solidified liquid solidifying into shape. But this time... it resembled a misaligned dot matrix instantly rearranging its composition to form a complete image.
"Absurd..." After regenerating, Lute's gaze sharpened downward, locking onto Gui Xiao. "Data Strength increased..."
"Less talk!" Gui Xiao showed no hesitation, snarling as he shot forward. "I'll smash you into dust!"
"You brat..." Lute struck with both hands, four fingers snapping. "Don't think I won't kill you..."
Four colossal forces descended like four mountain-stabilizing needles.
"Ha! Come on!" Gui Xiao dashed upward, changing direction mid-air with incredible agility, dodging each invisible force.
"How did he avoid that?" Vishnu exclaimed from the sidelines.
"Simple... Because he sees things others don't..." Shiva murmured.
"Xiao Tan!" Feng Bu Jue called out suddenly.
"What is it?" Xiao Tan responded.
"Help."
"Got it."
Almost simultaneously, they launched themselves skyward like storm winds defying gravity.
Feng Bu Jue's Tavrin Step granted "Double efficiency when using wall kicks" and "30% enhanced skill effects using legs." Now, using his moon-step technique to propel himself upward from solid ground, his speed had already shattered the sound barrier.
Though lacking legendary-grade equipment, Xiao Tan's physical techniques alone matched this incredible ascent speed, earning astonished admiration.
They arrived ahead of schedule, closing in on Lute almost simultaneously with Gui Xiao.
Instantly, the trio formed a pincer movement, each unleashing their signature attacks!
Gui Xiao's fists and palms clashed like storm rains, delivering mountain-splitting force.
Feng Bu Jue's hands each crackled with golden light, intervening with deceptive illusions and unpredictable variations.
Xiao Tan wielded dual blades, his technique refined, fierce, and precise, like lightning cutting through wind.
These three experts, though attacking from separate angles, coordinated perfectly. Especially Feng Bu Jue and Xiao Tan, whose synchronization reached hair-splitting precision.
"Die!" Lute finally roared, unable to contain her fury.
Outnumbered three-to-one with nothing to lose, she gradually fell behind. Yet now in her first morphology with no retreat possible, pushed to desperation, she would...
"TENDRIL_BARRAGE_DEVASTATOR!"
Lute's form exploded outward as ten thousand tendrils erupted from her body, blotting out sun and moon.
From afar, the sky seemed to bloom with an evil flower.
City's Nine Death Spirits, Shi Guan, and Juror; the Broadcast Zone's spectators; Shiva, Vishnu, and Yama on the streets; Chi Tie, using dark pollutants to heal Ling Feng; and Twenty-Three, returned to the battlefield—all paled in horror at this horrific technique.
Feng Bu Jue, Xiao Tan, and Gui Xiao, closest to Lute, had no chance to evade this sudden, intimate assault. Their figures were inevitably swallowed by the tendrils, vanishing from sight.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The technique's impact expanded far beyond expectations. Tendrils reaching the ground struck like cannonballs, each leaving deep craters. Millions of writhing appendages unleashed indiscriminate, physical devastation. Within mid-range, the destructive power rivaled dragon slave.
"Wrong... Run!" Shiva shouted as the TENDRIL_BARRAGE_DEVASTATOR spread uncontrollably, nearing their position.
"These monsters... Too reckless..." Yama muttered, rushing forward.
"Their three lives must've ended..." Vishnu ran while speaking. He'd extended a bronze physical barrier to block the attack, but within moments, his defense shredded to pieces, utterly helpless.
Even Chi Tie now carried Ling Feng on his shoulder, fleeing.
"Commander! Flee!" Chi Tie urged as Twenty-Three stood motionless, staring at the sky.
"Impossible... I won't accept this future..." Twenty-Three whispered, eyes hardening. Defying logic, she lunged forward, claws extended, charging toward the technique's core.
"Hey!" Chi Tie's expression turned astonished. His logic circuits couldn't process this situation.
"Feng Bu Jue!" Twenty-Three slashed through incoming tendrils with her twin claws, "If you're still alive..." she shouted, "Answer me!"
