Chapter 1182 – The Finger
“Here you go, Big Brother!” A Soul-Suppressing Sect disciple hurled a finely-crafted steel spear with all his might.
As Liam grasped the spear, his entire demeanor transformed.
It became sharp, domineering, and razor-focused.
Liam was renowned for his spear skills and advanced cultivation. His mastery of the spear was unmatched, and he had dominated the martial world for years without a worthy adversary.
Today, he intended to employ his renowned technique to astonish the world once more.
“Kid! Few have forced me to wield my spear in recent years, but you’ve earned that honor!” Liam snarled, his face contorted with fury. “Today, you’ll meet your end by my spear, and you should be proud of that!”
With a fierce expression on his face, Liam released his spear with the swiftness of an arrow released from a drawn bowstring.
At the same time, he lunged forward with astonishing speed, quickly catching up to the spear and grabbing its handle. In an instant, Liam, now armed with his weapon, turned into a dark torrent and surged forward.
The torrent’s trajectory created a tempest, making the nearby warriors’ weapons tremble slightly.
“Chasing the Stars and Chasing the Moon!”
Liam and his spear melded into one, carrying an earth-shattering force as they relentlessly charged towards Dustin.
This awe-inspiring force left everyone in shock.
“What a devastating strike! He truly is a master of the spear!”
“Chasing the Stars and Chasing the Moon is Liam’s signature move. Once he employs it, nothing can stop it. No one has ever cracked it.”
“His first move is a killing blow. It seems this kid is finished!”
“Hmph! If you dare provoke the leader of the Soul-suppressing Sect, you deserve your fate!”
The surrounding warriors retreated as soon as Liam unleashed his special move, afraid of getting caught in its path and suffering its destructive power.
“Too slow,” Dustin remarked as he faced the oncoming strike without evading, simply extending his finger tip.
With exceptional precision, this seemingly ordinary finger aimed directly for the tip of Liam’s spear.
“Boom!”
A resounding blast echoed.
The previously earth-shattering force of the spear was instantly shattered.
Liam felt his entire body tremble, his arms going numb. The spear in his hand seemed to have wedged itself into a mountain, rendering it immovable.
“What?!” Liam scrutinized the situation with growing astonishment.
He freaked out when he figured out that the thing blocking his attack wasn’t some shield or fancy magical stuff – it was just a finger.
Just an ordinary finger!
His renowned move, the super impressive thrust, got completely shut down by a lone finger.
How in the world was that even doable?
“Seriously?” Dustin shook his head, looking pretty let down.
He then slowly curled his fingers, aiming them at the spear’s tip before flicking it gently.
“Boom!”
There was another deafening noise.
Liam’s grip on the spear slipped away instantly.
The colossal impact made the steel spear recoil violently, its blunt end crashing mercilessly into Liam’s chest as if it were a cannonball.
“Ah!” Liam shrieked in excruciating pain as his ribcage crumpled, and his entire body felt as if a truck had just plowed into him. He was flung several meters away, landing on the ground with a thunderous crash.
His face contorted in agony, and he coughed up blood, unable to get back on his feet.
“What?!” Onlookers were left in sheer disbelief and astonishment.
Nobody had foreseen that Dustin would not only defeat Liam but do so overwhelmingly.
Liam, the top disciple of the Soul-Suppressing Sect and a rising star in the martial world, had been soundly defeated by a single finger from Dustin. It was an utterly unimaginable turn of events.
Just who in the world was this guy?
