Devouring the Stars: Soul Master

Chapter 89 Qin Ming's strength defeats Hong!

The wind howled and the yellow sand filled the sky.

In such an environment, signs of life almost disappear, and even the most resilient monsters struggle to survive due to a lack of sufficient food.

Wow!
A blood-red, disc-shaped fighter jet pierced the sky and hovered amidst the swirling yellow sand.

The hatch opened, and Qin Ming and Jia Yi stepped out, letting the strong wind blow through them.

Qin Ming glanced around.

This kind of environment is indeed very suitable for combat, allowing for unrestrained attacks.

On the opposite side, a triangular fighter jet had been waiting for a long time. When Qin Ming and Jia Yi appeared, Hong, dressed in black, and Thor, a bald man in white robes, flew out.

"Isn't the place I chose great? Hong and I used to spar here all the time."

Thor chuckled and laughed at Qin Ming.

He was also looking forward to the battle between Hong and Qin Ming.

In terms of mental cultivation, Hong is a cut above him, and he also possesses an extremely powerful field of light.

Qin Ming, on the other hand, possessed an extremely strange mental energy domain. Within a radius of 3000 meters, there was not only endless resistance, but it could also unleash attacks that could tear one's soul apart.

"Very good! Let's begin."

With his feet planted on the Sky Shuttle and his hand on the Broken Army Halberd, Qin Ming nodded slightly, his gaze toward Hong becoming fervent and filled with fighting spirit.

This time, he wanted to test just how strong he was without relying on the Myriad Soul Banner!

"it is good!"

Hong also said in a deep voice.

Clearly, both of them had been looking forward to this battle for a long time.

boom!
Almost the instant the words fell, the two figures tore through the air and shot towards each other!

"He wants to fight me in close combat?"

As the figure drew ever closer, a thought flashed through Hong's mind, who was already prepared to withstand the mental attack.

A psychic is about to engage in close combat with the world's number one martial artist?
Where does he get the confidence?
The spear and the halberd clashed violently in the air, producing a deafening clang of metal striking metal.

The two figures moved at breakneck speed, intertwined like two giant pythons.

"Haha, close combat is definitely more enjoyable!"

Amidst laughter, Qin Ming swung his halberd, forcing Hong back.

"Your strength is actually comparable to mine?"

Taking advantage of the situation, he retreated, and a look of disbelief flashed in Hong's eyes, which were suspended in the sky.

He didn't hold back during the earlier probing.

The force transmitted when the spear and halberd clashed was only slightly weaker than his.

“Pure strength alone is not enough. I attached my mental power to the Broken Army Halberd and used both physical strength and mental power at the same time to barely manage to do it.”

Qin Ming smiled and shook his head, showing no intention of hiding anything.

Although his 26x power was strong, his physical condition was too poor, only comparable to a fourth-level planetary-class cultivator in normal condition, and even lower than a fifth-level planetary-class cultivator.

It's simply impossible to contend with a planetary-level sixth-order being like Hong, whose power amplitude is more than six times greater.

However, it's different if you add mental power.

Controlling weapons with mental power is a routine operation for mentalists.

However, very few spiritual practitioners would do this.

After all, maintaining distance and leveraging the advantages of long-range attacks is the key to success.

"Does mental power and physical strength overlap?"
It seems you've made considerable progress in the past two months.

So, now that the warm-up's over, it's time to get serious!

A fighting spirit flashed in Hong's eyes. He had originally just wanted to test Qin Ming's special mental domain, but now he was genuinely interested.

"Big brother, get serious!"

Thor, watching from afar, clenched his fists, wishing he could rush in himself.

"Then come on!"

Qin Ming grinned.

The two phantoms collided in the sky, but this time Qin Ming clearly felt immense pressure.

What a fast gun!

Hong's spear not only possessed immense power, but its speed was also astonishing.

When the full force was unleashed, even Qin Ming's reaction speed couldn't keep up.

Hong is a property of light.

It is already extremely fast, and the "World Destroyer" gun technique is also known for its extreme speed.

Whoosh!Whoosh!Whoosh!
The blades surrounding Qin Ming flashed past at lightning speed, colliding with the spear shaft, allowing Qin Ming to narrowly avoid the spear thrust at an extremely dangerous angle.

With just the Broken Army Halberd and close combat skills, he was no match for Hong.

His combat experience is far inferior to that of Hong, who fought his way out of the Great Nirvana!

Only by combining it with the Sky-Piercing Shuttle can it have any fighting power.

clang!clang!clang!
Riding on the Sky Shuttle, Qin Ming and Hong collided wildly in the sky, occasionally producing a series of violent explosions.

The raging yellow sand was deflected by the sonic booms during the terrifying impact.

Thanks to the speed advantage of the Sky Shuttle, a stalemate was temporarily achieved.

"Hahaha, Hong, try out my three deadly moves!"

"One style·Die Yue!"

Amidst wild laughter, Qin Ming swung his Broken Army Halberd down with extreme ferocity, unleashing a blood-red shockwave.

When creating his power-generating technique, he also combined it with many other martial arts techniques to create three killing moves.

Duan Yue was one of them! "Good timing!"

A smile appeared on Hong's usually calm face. His spear danced like a phantom, deflecting the violently slashing halberd at an extremely precise angle, and then thrusting his spear forward.

The gun comes out like a dragon.

He aimed straight for Qin Ming's chest.

Qin Ming turned around, his halberd slashing outwards in mid-air to block the spear.

"Second Form - Twisting Dragon!"

Qin Ming roared again, and the Broken Army Halberd spun around, forming a blood-red tornado. There were even 12 short blades flying out of the Sky Shuttle at the tip of the halberd, spinning wildly inside.

This move is no longer a simple halberd technique, but a method of fighting in conjunction with the Sky-Piercing Shuttle!

He is more than just a martial artist!
In an instant, 12 short blades surrounded 'Hong' from all angles, attempting to strangle him.

"break!"

Finally sensing the danger, Hong let out a low shout, his spear spinning like a whirlwind, knocking away several throwing knives, and then he flipped over and slashed down with his spear.

boom!
Qin Ming felt an immense force surge towards him, making him unsteady on his feet. He was sent flying backward by the spear strike, his hands trembling.

Meanwhile, Hong on the other side was also retreating repeatedly.

"Hong, this is my strongest move! If you can withstand it, you win! Third Form: Meteor Shower!"

With a surge of mental power, Qin Ming forcibly controlled his flying body and roared, unleashing his full power in an instant. Thirty short blades spun wildly in front of the halberd tip.

Like a rapidly spinning head, all the power converges and rushes forward like a meteor.

This attack was Qin Ming's strongest killing move under normal circumstances.

Even the body beneath the Black God Armor was covered in traces of blood due to the burst of power beyond its limits in a short period of time!

"Your strongest move? Then bring it on!"

Beneath the mask, Hong revealed a joyful smile; only Thor had ever brought him such pressure in the past!
"Destroy the world!"

Hong instantly transformed into a black beam of light, unleashing the strongest move from the "World Destruction" spear technique.

Click!Click!Click!
The spear tip and the halberd tip collided with the rapidly rotating blades on their outer edges.

The spear in Hong's hand bent due to that terrifying force, as if it might break at any moment.

The blades cracked layer by layer.

The power contained within the spear is also constantly diminishing.

boom!
Suddenly, Qin Ming felt the world around him turn black and white, and he felt as if he had sunk into a quagmire, with his strength greatly reduced.

field?

Hong Kai has opened up the territory!
Then don’t blame me for not having martial ethics!

The Banner of Ten Thousand Souls! Open!

Qin Ming roared inwardly, and instantly thousands of crimson-eyed lord-level monsters, under the command of the Azure Dragon of the East Sea, roared as they surged out from the Myriad Soul Banner and rushed into Hong's sea of ​​consciousness.

Although there were only a few thousand of them, the power they unleashed far exceeded that of their battle against Thor.

"what--"

Under the soul attacks of the planetary-level fifth-tier Azure Dragon of the East Sea and thousands of lord-level monsters, Hong's veins bulged all over his body, his brain felt like it was about to split open, and his face turned deathly pale.

Qin Ming, however, seized the opportunity to extricate himself and quickly created distance.

It would be unwise to fight him within Hong's territory.

Fortunately, Hong's domain was only a hundred meters in size, and with Qin Ming's speed riding the Sky Shuttle, he was able to retreat in an instant.

"Is this the mental attack Thor suffered earlier?"

Hong, who had nearly fainted, was starting to question the meaning of life.

Thor has charged into Qin Ming's domain more than ten times!

He almost couldn't hold on even once.

Wow!
Maintaining the black and white domain, Hong watched Qin Ming fly backward with lingering fear.

He's no match for him!
Qin Ming, riding the Sky Shuttle, was much faster than him.

If such an attack had been launched from a distance from the beginning, he wouldn't have been able to withstand it more than a few times.

"Your strength has improved again! Even I couldn't withstand this kind of mental attack. You won."

Standing in the void, the mask formed by the Black God Set faded away, and Hong's expression was somewhat complicated.

In a pure martial arts battle, Qin Mingyuan was no match for him.

However, with the help of mental power and the Sky Shuttle, it was already possible to suppress him when he was not using his domain.

If Qin Ming hadn't used his domain, he would have been injured in a head-on collision with his strongest attack, 'Meteor Shower'.

Therefore, at the crucial moment, he activated the domain.

"After two months of seclusion, I have gained some insights, and my strength has indeed improved somewhat."

Qin Ming also stopped and smiled.

Although he used the Ten Thousand Souls Banner, he did win.

"This is a new power-generating technique that I created during my seclusion. It is different from the previous method of layering hidden strength. Instead, it involves tapping into the power of all the cells in the body to unleash a burst of energy."

My power multiplier has reached 26 times!
This can transform your strength.

Otherwise, given my rate of improvement, you won't be a match for me next time we spar.

Qin Ming's voice was full of candor and confidence.

At the same time, a USB flash drive appeared in his hand and flew towards Hong Fei under the influence of his mental power.

Since Hong and Lei Shen were able to impart their secrets to everyone without reservation, he naturally had nothing to fear.

Secret techniques? Well, it depends on who's using them!
