Xia Yuan was already brimming with youthful passion, completely ignoring any role-playing, and roared with fiery bloodlust:
"Gate of View, open!"
"Advanced version of Morning Peacock!"
"Morning Phoenix!"
He leaped into the air and hovered, then began throwing a frenzied barrage of punches towards the incoming glacial sword energy!
His fist speed was so fast it left afterimages, breaking the sound barrier. The friction with the air generated high-temperature flas!
Streaks of flaming teors spread out in a radial pattern, covering a roughly 120-degree fan-shaped area in front of Xia Yuan, their montum thunderous!
Morning Peacock is a move that can be unleashed after opening the Sixth Gate, the "Gate of View," of the Eight Gates Released Formation.
This technique generates flas through ultra-high-speed punches and air friction, creating a group of fla attacks that blanket the battlefield.
Because the attacks resemble flas spreading out like a peacock's tail display, it's nad Morning Peacock!
However, enhanced by Xia Yuan's Reverse Cursed Technique, the ORA ORA punches he unleashed far surpassed the Morning Peacock in both power and quantity!
The blazing flas from his dual fists were impenetrably dense, covering a wider area with even greater power. They seed to coalesce into a fiery phoenix, diving down!
Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle...
Under the utterly horrified gazes of the crowd, the Ice Soul Queen's crescent-shaped glacial sword energy was effortlessly shattered and lted by the fire phoenix, releasing massive plus of white steam!
After destroying the glacier, the Morning Phoenix's power undiminished, continued its dive towards the Ice Soul Queen!
The Ice Soul Queen was montarily dumbfounded.
Aren't you a swordsman?
Why did you suddenly switch to martial arts and start throwing ORA ORA punches?!
She had fought all kinds of Contracted Spirits, if not ten thousand, then at least several thousand.
This was the first ti she had ever seen a Contracted Spirit with such a huge skill gap!
It completely defied logic!
The Ice Soul Queen could only swing her sword again, unleashing another burst of Ice Soul sword energy, defending against the Morning Phoenix with all her might.
Ice and fire intermingled, steam billowed, obscuring the view.
Xia Yuan, in his Hulk state, suddenly charged out from the white steam, his flaming fist aid straight at her abdon.
The Ice Soul Queen's passive skill, Super Perception, kicked in, giving her an early warning. She barely managed to raise her sword in ti to block his punch!
Boom!
But the power of this punch was imnse.
Even though she blocked with her sword, it felt like being ramd head-on by a high-speed train, sending her flying backward.
The Ice Soul Queen was a bit dazed from the hit!
Whose swordsman has fists this hard and strength this great?!
The Ice Soul Queen plunged her sword into the arena floor, just managing to stabilize herself, when the other fist of the Hulk-like Xia Yuan was already right in front of her eyes.
She roared, swinging her sword from low to high, using her Ice Soul sword energy to deflect the force of Xia Yuan's punch.
Imdiately after, the two beca entangled in close combat.
Sword versus fist clashed!
The confrontation was intense!
Both the speed of the sword strikes and the speed of the punches reached their absolute limits!
In the eyes of the spectators, they could only see green and white figures interweaving into a net, exploding from one end of the arena all the way to the other.
While throwing punches, Xia Yuan didn't forget to control the surrounding cherry blossom blades.
The two forms of attack coordinated tightly, allowing him to almost completely suppress the Ice Soul Queen!
As ti passed, the wounds on the Ice Soul Queen's body grew more and more nurous. One mont her cheek was grazed by a cherry blossom blade, the next her body was scraped by a punch's shockwave.
By the ti the two separated again.
The Ice Soul Queen had been beaten into a battle-damaged style. Her white dress was torn in many places, revealing the snow-tender skin beneath.
Her curvaceous body heaved violently as she gasped for breath.
Although she was at a disadvantage and had been beaten quite badly, a look of exhilarating delight appeared on her pretty face!
It had been a long ti since she had encountered a powerhouse capable of suppressing her like this!
As for Xia Yuan on the other side, he remained completely unscathed.
The youthful passion gradually faded from his face, replaced by his usual cold, ruthless expression.
His inner thoughts, however, were anything but calm, already roiling with towering waves!
Because the combination of the Reverse Cursed Technique and the Eight Gates Released Formation had actually succeeded!
The Eight Gates Released Formation was indeed powerful, but once used, the consumption and burden on the body's functions were imnse.
The amount of power it unleashed would inevitably inflict corresponding damage on the user's body!
Even for Contracted Spirits, once their bodies were damaged, they couldn't recover imdiately. Instead, their Spirit Tar needed to consu spiritual energy to slowly restore them.
However, Xia Yuan could utilize the Reverse Cursed Technique to instantly, precisely, and rapidly repair the damage to his flesh!
The two skills cycled repeatedly, forming a perfect closed loop!
Infinitely stacking the martial arts BUFF provided by the Eight Gates Released Formation!
This was equivalent to him substituting the side effects and cost of the Eight Gates with the imdiate consumption of Fatty Yu's spiritual energy!
In exchange, he gained the terrifying state of a perpetual Eight Gates, an infinite power engine!
The power amplification provided by the Eight Gates Released Formation was massive.
Tenfold!
Several dozen fold!
Even higher!
Xia Yuan essentially possessed a continuously operating "human nuclear fusion reactor."
The energy output of this "reactor" no longer relied on burning life force, but was maintained by the Reverse Cursed Technique fueled by Fatty Yu's spiritual energy!
In the Naruto world, when Might Guy opened the Death Gate, there was a ti limit.
Because his life energy could only sustain it for so long.
However, if Xia Yuan opened the Death Gate, bolstered by the Reverse Cursed Technique, as long as Fatty Yu's spiritual energy wasn't completely exhausted, he could remain in the Death Gate state indefinitely!
And while the spiritual energy consud by the Reverse Cursed Technique was not insignificant, given Fatty Yu's current spiritual energy reserves, sustaining it for five or six hours wouldn't be a problem!
Five or six hours in the Death Gate state?!
Xia Yuan didn't even dare to think about it. That was practically equivalent to cheating!
Who the hell could withstand that?!
Even Madara would have to kneel!
Xia Yuan took a deep breath, calming his excited emotions.
This counted as one of his trump cards.
But so far, no one was worth him going all out yet.
At this mont, the number of viewers in Mo Shiyu's live stream had reached 70,000!
Rember, these were 70,000 Spirit Tars, not ordinary civilians.
The popularity was incredibly high!
The entire arena of Spirit Tars erupted in thunderous cheers and exclamations of amazent:
"Holy shit, that was so fast my eyes are blurry, goosebumps keep rising on my skin!"
"Both are really strong, but Knife in Rainy Night Without Umbrella's SSR is still stronger!"
"How does a swordsman manage to punch so ferociously? He's suppressing a swordswoman with his fists, it's unbelievable, unbelievable!"
"So damn hype, real n watch this kind of close-quarters combat!"
"Is this the gold standard of Master rank matches? It's like they're from another dinsion!"
"......."
Xia Yuan looked at the white-dressed swordswoman with her torn dress, which gave her a different kind of charm, and extended a hand, crooking his finger:
"What's wrong? Can't handle it anymore?"
"Co on, continue."
The Ice Soul Queen raised her longsword with both hands again, giving a dashing, slightly crazed smile:
"How can a woman say she can't handle it? She'll only say... don't stop!"
As the words fell, the blade of the sword in her hands swelled several tis in size, glowing with a brilliant ice-blue light, radiating bone-chilling cold!
Frost filled the entire arena, the world turned bitterly cold!
The temperature was even lower than before, plumting towards the lowest possible temperature achievable in the world.
Absolute zero!
-273.15 degrees Celsius!
Seeing her posture, Xia Yuan knew she was about to unleash her ultimate move.
He had witnessed it before; the power of this move was truly impressive. It had overwheld and killed that Abyss Boss back then.
In that case.
He would show corresponding respect.
It was ti to end the battle using the strongest move of his Zanpakuto Senbonzakura!
Xia Yuan's Zanpakuto reappeared in his hand. Gripping it with both hands as before, his spiritual pressure suddenly surged to its peak!
In that instant.
Mo Shiyu felt her remaining spiritual energy being completely drained.
She skillfully knelt and sat on the ground, having long since mastered the ultimate technique of how to lie down properly after her spiritual energy was depleted.
"Xia Yuan..."
Mo Shiyu said weakly, a bitter smile on her face, "Just how many more ultimate moves do you have?"
