196 Chapter 2529
"What could be the other method" she thought to herself.
But Limitless did not entertain her questions, he turned to the sky and proclaimed, "1 Fight, that's all."
No voice responded, just a flash of lightning and a peal of thunder that seemed to agree.
"Tsk, still trying to act mysterious after already revealing yourself," Limitless shook his head, he had never liked the Heavenly Dao.
"A deal's a deal, " he sighed, "Well if you can't overcome this trial, then you certainly have no hope of reaching eternity."
In Limitless's hand, a Gu in the shape of a Lion's head was in his hands,
Star Constellation instantly recognised it,
"Pride Gu!"
Dao Killer Move ---------- Pride Cometh Before The Fall
The entire Peaceful Soil Heavy Fortress Mountain began shaking violently.
The sand around the Peaceful Soil Heavy Fortress Mountain began to pushed asidebe as the colossal Gu House was pressed into the ground by an unimaginable weight.
"Impossible!" Hei Chun Qiu slammed his fists onto the table, "The Gu House has merged into the ground, we did this to counter a situation where Gravity was used against us there shouldn't be anything capable of pushing it further down."
Wu Shuai remained calm as the blue light from the AI gu kept flashing in his eyes as he thought of every possible situation
"It is as Hei Chun Qiu said, we took gravity and pressure as potential risks when building this place, the foundation should have slightly merged with the Earth's veins and be impossible to move even with a great increase in gravity," He kept pacing around the room until he noticed he was able to still walk freely which would have been impossible if the whole Peaceful Soil Heavey Mountain Fortress was under the effects of gravity.
Realizing this Wu Shuai used his connection with the Gu House to inspect the foundation.
!!!
"Sly bastards!" Wu Shuai cursed,
"What?" Hei Chun Qiu replied, "What did they do?"
Wu Shuai pointed below, "Look at the foundation."
"What's wrong with the-" his words died in his throat, "Where the hell is it!?!?"
"Don't you understand," Wu Shuai asked, Hei Chun Qiu was still too lost in shock to comprehend it.
Wu Shuai's facial expression turned grave, " I underestimated him his Killer Move isn't something as simple as applying great pressure or gravity, It's about affecting reality itself! We aren't sinking due to an increase in Gravity or a strong external pressure,"
"We're sinking from our own weight and the lack of any foundation!"
!!!
This was unbelievable to Hei Chun Qiu, how did they manage to remove the foundation they had so painstakingly built, it was one of the things that took pride in.
The light from AI Gu kept flashing as more theories and conjectures were tried and tested in his brain, "I suspect that Killer Move uses the Sin Dao's Pride Gu, it probably targets things that we place our confidence and take pride in, and removes them from existence causing us to stumble."
Wu Shuai continued his theory, "In fact, if you took pride in your Time Path expertise and attainments, I suspect they would either be removed or reduced in some capacity while under the effects of the Killer Move."
Hei Chun Qiu gritted his teeth, "That's way too overpowered! He would be unstoppable!"
"Not necessarily, everything has weakness, test out your Time Path methods."
Hei Chun Qiu activated a few simple Killer Moves to ascertain whether his Time Path techniques were being affected.
"Dosen't seem like it," he concluded.
"Hmm," Wu Shuai rubbed his chin, "It's the same for my enslavement Path and AI Gu as well, so I assume it can only affect 1 target at a time or the Peaceful Soil Heavy Fortress is just too big. Either way, there is a limit."
The entire Fortress began tilting towards one side, causing the Fortress to begin leaning and sinking at an uneven rate.
"At least we know the problem and can take countermeasures," A large glowing brown orb with 6 tinier orbs of different colours, Red, Blue, Yellow, Silver, Black and White, surrounding it, appeared in Wu Shuai's hands.
It was the physical form of the upgraded Killer Move Peaceful Soil Heavy Fortress Mountain!
At its core was Rank 9 Earth Gu and all the other Earth Path Gu used to give the Peaceful Soil Heavy Fortress Mountain its form.
The 6 Colored Orbs orbiting the center were the respective Elemental Gus.
"In the past, this Killer Move lacked the versatility to anything other than defend, but now," Wu Shuai took out a few Earth Path Gus, making the brown orb smaller, and added Fire, and Steel Path Gus, making the Red, and Silver Orbs bigger.
From the outside,
The Peaceful Soil Heavy Fortress Mountain was sinking at a rapid rate, it's body was uneven so its distribution of weight was uneven, causing certain areas to sink faster the tilt.
"This is great!" Star Constellation exclaimed, "Once the fortress topples over, its base will be exposed, allowing us entry without having to break open the walls."
But all of sudden, multiple thud-like sounds could be heard,
Worried about the tricks they might still have up their sleeves Star Constellation was hyper-focused but what she saw made her mouth gape open.
"Hoh?" Limitless was intrigued and amused, "That's one way to overcome the sinking."
From the side that was sinking,
Beams made of Steel were jutting out from the walls at an angle against the ground, to prevent further sinking.
Though the loose sand would have meant that the beams be effectively useless, but their goal wasn't to prop the Peaceful Soil Heavy Fortress Mountain up, no, these Beams were hollow inside to allow for the mini explosion!
Like a pseudo rocket thruster, they were blasting the toppling side back up!
Once it reached an equal level with the non-toppling side, Wu Shuai added more Steel Path Gu to create hundreds of thousands of Steel beams around the North, South, East, and West areas of the Peaceful Soil Heavy Fortress Mountain.
All at an angle digging into the ground, to distribute the weight.
"Well," Limitless scratched his chin, "It's an ingenious plan, but it would only buy a tiny amount of time, and besides." A devilish smirk appeared on his face, "Aren't you rather proud of yourself?"
