Chapter 196: If You Keep Pretending, You Die First
Sword Trace formed a ring, colliding with the swiftly slashing tyrant tiger armor, sparks flashing like terrifying lightning on the horizon. Wu Hen could take the fatal cut, but he couldn't neutralize the enemy's brutal force, so he was bashed from above by one tyrant tiger armor and then struck into the air by another from below. After several consecutive bounces, Wu Hen felt as if all his internal organs had shifted out of place!
After all, each tyrant tiger armor was no less powerful than the previous one. The pressure they placed on Wu Hen increased by much more than tenfold.
Wu Hen bore the pain and drew breath again, taking the chance to spit out a mouthful of clotted blood. His eyes then turned sharp and icy cold.
He had to withstand this wave. If he could survive this torrential onslaught from the nine tyrant tiger armors without being crippled, he believed he could steadily eliminate one; no matter how thick its armor or how tenacious its life force, Wu Hen was convinced that a full-powered strike from the Thunder Transition Factor and the Black Glazed Sword was enough to kill.
However, the Thunder Transition Factor needed time.
The golden Heavenly Tribulation was powerful but also required gathering. The clouds of tribulation forming above were not yet sufficient. From the previous battles, Wu Hen had clearly recognized the limit of force the tyrant tiger armors could sustain. If it didn't reach this destructive power, Wu Hen would rather hold back!
"Bang!!!!"
Wu Hen was hammered to the ground by the tyrant tiger armor in midair.
In the moment his back made contact with the temple platform, he didn't know how many bones were broken, and at the same time, a series of dangerous and fatal signals were transmitted from his ears to his brain!
The space around him blurred; Wu Hen couldn't see anything but knew that all the other tyrant tiger armors were attacking him...
His Third Rank Hearing was frantically alerting him; death awaited him from all directions. Even though the information was fed back to his mind, his brain couldn't process all this danger in an instant!
"Whoosh~~~~~"
Suddenly, the Ominous Bronze Spear burst forth with a dim glow, conjuring up a surging black flood that swept past from behind Wu Hen.
Wu Hen didn't think twice and immediately dived into the black torrent, using it to conceal himself.
"Clang!"
At the same time, the Ominous Bronze Spear was caught by one of the tyrant tiger armors, which bit the spear in half.
Seemingly aware that the Ominous Bronze Spear could heal, that tyrant tiger armor then tossed the two halves of the spear to two other tyrant tiger armors. Those two extracted their fearsome Red Rhombic Blades and hacked away at the Ominous Bronze Spear, now broken into two parts!
The Ominous Bronze Spear was shattered repeatedly until it turned into Bronze Fragments.
One of the tyrant tiger armors, seemingly to display its supreme divine might, even picked up a fragment of the bronze spear and began to chew on it in its mouth.
The Bronze Fragments were chewed into copper slag.

This was the most naked provocation against Wu Hen, as if responding to his previous words!
Wu Hen paid no attention to the contempt. He looked up at the cloud tribulation - the golden Thunder Transition Factor had become dense and robust enough!
"You're the first to die for showing off!"
Suddenly, Wu Hen erupted with boundless Sword Intent, his sword in hand lunging directly at the arrogant tyrant tiger armor.
The other tyrant tiger armors reacted swiftly, quickly forming the Tiger Armor Wall Formation and easily blocking Wu Hen's flying strike.
But Wu Hen suddenly changed tactics, standing mid-air, using his sword as a conduit, commanding the Eight-direction Thunder Power!
"Tribulation Thunder Axe!"
A golden Thunder Battle Axe appeared out of nowhere, striking the tyrant tiger armor that was chewing on the bronze fragments without warning!
The armor of this tyrant tiger armor instantly shattered, and its interior was so perfect muscles couldn't withstand the Tribulation Thunder Axe either, split in two, milky white blood gushed out recklessly!
The other tyrant tiger armors swiftly scattered, the might of the Tribulation Thunder Axe was of mythical level, a divine punishment that many a great demon would endure during ascension, no matter how perfect the flesh of the tyrant tiger armor, it would be obliterated by such force.
With the death of this tyrant tiger armor, the fragments turned into bronze slag became black water bands, floating towards the other fragments.
The ominous bronze fragments also started to congeal, countless malevolent inscriptions swirling around like water, weaving through the bronze, repairing them, and gradually exuding the imposing aura and might of a riverbed divine weapon!
It didn't matter how many times it was broken; its intrinsic property was water, what did it matter if a mighty weapon split the current, for the nature of water is to flow and restore in a short time.
The Ominous Bronze Spear was not inherently rigid and didn't need to compete with the tyrant tiger armors in hardness.
Once restored, the Ominous Bronze Spear launched an offensive again, aiming to entangle a tyrant tiger armor and create more killing opportunities for Wu Hen.
With one less to deal with, the pressure decreased slightly, especially since these tyrant tiger armors had instilled a hint of fear upon witnessing the true power of Thunder Crossing, giving Wu Hen more chances to catch his breath.
"Clang! Clang! Clang!!"
Red Rhombic Blades kept slashing in, each strike locking onto its target with maximum precision.
The Black Glaze Sword demonstrated its unparalleled strength at this moment; as those Red Rhombic Blades came into contact with the Black Glaze, they seemed to freeze over with a layer of Black Frost, stopping them from unleashing their terrifying red flames.
In several clashes, the Black Glaze Sword had an absolute advantage, the Diamond Blades riddled with notches while the Black Glaze Sword remained smooth and immaculate, like the difference between diamond and gold.
This bolstered Wu Hen's confidence tremendously, unfettered by the constraints of the vacuum cage, his energy recovery was astonishingly fast. Utilizing his Third Rank Listening Sense, he flickered continuously between the four tyrant tiger armors, and with the Black Glaze Sword in hand, he could penetrate their armor, wounding them severely with each hit.
The aura of Black Glaze had some similarities with the Black Frost he mastered before; as the battle waged on, Black Glaze started to cause space to solidify, not by freezing things, but by creating microscopic obstructions, much like air resistance. If a fast-moving object wanted to break through its speed limit, it would have to overcome greater and greater air resistance...
The ultimate speed of the tyrant tiger armors could surpass Wu Hen's Listening Sense, leaving him no time to react.
But as the essence of Black Glaze influenced the space around them, these tyrant tiger armors couldn't overcome the Glaze resistance. Their speed limit was suppressed, brought down to a level within Wu Hen's Listening Sense capabilities.
This was key for Wu Hen to hold his own against these tyrant tiger armors. His right hand wielded a sharper sword, his left hand could strike with Thunder Crossing, his own energy endurance was stronger, while the opponent's speed and red flames were both suppressed!
Injured he might be, but with every injury, Wu Hen ensured a grievous return, paving the way for the next killing blow!
Finally, Wu Hen seized another rare opportunity. He aimed his sword at the head of a tyrant tiger armor, the very one that had previously used him as a ball in the sky!
The sword blade was imbued with high-temperature Red Flames, the very power of the Rhombic Blade wielded by the tyrant tiger armor itself, which intensified the sharpness of Wu Hen's Black Glaze Sword. With a clean slash, the head fell, blood spattered!!
