Liu Xing aimed his gun and fired six rapid shots. His targets were three Hei clan abominations, two Wu clan abominations, and one army abomination. The Hei clan members formed shields from their hair to block the bullets, but the resulting explosions killed two instantly, leaving the third a bloody mess. The Wu clan abominations slashed at the bullets with their nails, triggering explosions. One died in the blast, transforming into a red mist, while the other was blown away. The army abomination tried to deflect the bullet with its spear, but the bullet's explosion destroyed the spear and killed it instantly.

He stored some of the qi from their beast cores in his Ethereal Pearl—crucial for killing the generals. Still, Liu Xing also attempted to absorb some qi directly into his consciousness, trying for the breakthrough into the Core Splitting realm.

The giant generals swept their arm-blades, unleashing massive wind blades. These attacks were enormous—as tall and wide as city walls—moving like trains and carving deep wounds into the ground.

Facing this mighty assault, Liu Xing fired several more shots at the remaining abominations before leaping skyward. He maneuvered through the air, using his summoned shield as a platform. To his surprise, however, the wind blades curved to follow him. He zigzagged left and right, trying to shake off the giant wind blades pursuing him. Meanwhile, the Yang clan rained down attacks on the remaining abominations as if trying to lure the enemy to them so that Liu Xing could deal with the generals.

The generals created ripples in the air as they slashed again and again, launching more giant wind blades toward him. The wind blades rushed through the City of Suns like transparent freight trains, each carrying enough force to level city blocks.

He kicked off his floating shield, moving like a bolt of lightning to reposition himself so the wind blades were between him and one of the generals. Then, standing atop his shield in the air, Liu Xing channeled the potent qi stored in the Ethereal Pearl into his right gauntlet. A sphere of lightning, larger than himself, materialized before him. He poured more qi into his gauntlet until it began to creak, the lightning ball growing until it filled his entire field of vision. Then, with a palm strike, he unleashed a massive pillar of lightning.

The lightning pillar made the air tremble. When it collided with the wind blades, a huge shockwave expanded outward as brilliant light erupted where the two forces clashed, each trying to overwhelm the other. Liu Xing shouted, forcing more power into the lightning pillar, pushing against the wind blades until they finally shattered.

The victorious lightning pillar extended toward one of the generals. The giant abomination's pupil dilated as it crossed its wicked blades, creating a massive blue barrier. But the barrier might as well have been tofu; the lightning pillar shredded through it and engulfed the giant abomination's upper body.

The attack drove the general backward, its feet carving deep trails. When the lightning pillar finally receded, the general remained alive but grievously wounded. Its entire body was charred black, as if thrown into a furnace. Its huge eye, blackened, oozed sticky red blood like magma. The creature's frantic pulses rippled through the air like silent screams of agony, its pain too vast for mere sound.

Seeing his opportunity, Liu Xing kicked off his shield and charged the wounded general. The other three generals raced to intercept, their giant feet making the entire City of Suns tremble. Hundreds of army and clan abominations surged forward, instinctively knowing they could not let him finish off the wounded general.

Shield after shield materialized and vanished beneath Liu Xing's feet as he sped through the sky like a comet. He stretched his lightning blade to a hundred meters and hardened it with stable qi. In the same fluid motion, he aimed his gun and fed it potent qi from the Ethereal Pearl.

As wind howled in his ears, Liu Xing knew this was the critical moment. If he could kill this general abomination with his gun, he could decimate the rest of the generals!

"Eat this!" Liu Xing shouted, slashing through a hundred airborne abominations. Then, his lightning blade whipped toward the wounded general's giant head.

Another general tried to parry the lightning blade with its wicked arm but was a fraction too slow. The lightning blade cut diagonally through the charred eye, meeting almost no resistance. The neat cut split the eye in two; red blood burst from the wound as half the eye slid away. The general thrashed madly, sending frantic pulses Liu Xing could feel on his skin.

Knowing the cut alone would not kill it, Liu Xing accelerated faster. Another general slashed at him with its giant wicked blade. Liu Xing intensified his Lightning Cloak technique, using his shield to zigzag around several arm blades. He moved as fast as real lightning, quickly reaching the wounded general's side. Its split head revealed writhing, worm-like organs gushing blood like a waterfall.

He aimed his gun and fired bullets infused with the Exploding Fist technique. Six explosions bloomed, spraying red blood everywhere. As the creature began to groan—physically this time—Liu Xing reloaded and fired another six shots in rapid succession. The abomination started to topple sideways just as three other generals swung their right arms to strike him down.

Liu Xing maneuvered through the sky, zigzagging left and right, up and down, dodging these powerful but slow attacks. He used his shield to propel himself upward, beyond the reach of the generals' wicked blades.

Soon, Liu Xing hung high in the sky, the entire City of Suns spread out below. As gravity took hold, he let himself fall, eyes fixed on the gun in his left hand. A sound like a collapsing building echoed from below and he saw the six green strips on his gun glowing brightly. His heart raced as a smile spread across his face—he would win this fight. More than that, he could also break through to the Core Splitting realm!

Centering his mind, Liu Xing took a deep breath. He absorbed a bullet into his body and directed it to his consciousness. The qi was plentiful, and his ball of lightning absorbed it greedily, vibrating as it tried to break free of its chains.

While absorbing the qi, he aimed his gun at the three army generals below. They looked up and began slashing the air, sending multiple giant wind blades toward him.

Liu Xing summoned his shield and accelerated. He coated his right gauntlet with stable qi and channeled one qi bullet into it. Instantly, another giant ball of lightning materialized before him. Without hesitation, he unleashed a giant pillar of lightning from his hand. He swung it like his lightning blade, easily cutting through the wind blades as if they were paper before plasma.

He swept the lightning pillar toward the ground with a thunderous rumble, destroying hundreds of remaining army and clan abominations. As the attack began to fade, he redirected it toward one of the army generals. The creature tried to stop the receding lightning pillar with a huge barrier, but the defense shattered just as his lightning pillar finally dissipated.

Liu Xing accelerated through the air, shield after shield materializing beneath his feet as he took aim at an army general. He pulled the trigger. A lightning bolt whistled through the sky like a divine spear, striking the center of the general's massive eye. The impact triggered an explosion that transformed the entire eye into a red mist, coating everything within several hundred meters like a gruesome rain. The six green stripes on the gun's side glowed again and Liu Xing turned his attention to the two remaining army generals.

He squeezed the trigger four times, dedicating two shots to each creature. The generals raised blue barriers before their enormous forms, exactly as Liu Xing had anticipated. The first bullet striking each barrier detonated, shredding the defense into azure confetti that danced in the wind. The follow-up bullets found their marks, striking each giant eye-head with devastating precision.

The explosions left nothing but stumps where their heads had been, blood mist and eye fragments scattering in the wind. Like ancient trees finally felled, the three titanic abominations toppled sideways in unison.

Liu Xing smiled. He had won. All the generals were dead, and the army below lay decimated.
