I Can See Your Combat Power -
Chapter 1149 - Chapter 1149 Chapter 443 Anxiety
Chapter 1149: Chapter 443: Anxiety Chapter 1149: Chapter 443: Anxiety Previously, Yun Ji approached An Yuanxi, thinking that with the Taiyi Eight Treasures Cloud Platform, even if he couldn’t win, he could stall for a while until other powerhouses freed their hands. However, he didn’t expect that although they were both from the Fierce Realm, the gap in combat power was so vast that it was like an adult beating a child.
The two streaks of Divine Light were as fast as lightning. Yun Ji had poured all his Spiritual Power into that cloud sword just now, and with his Spiritual Power now depleted, he knew he couldn’t escape. He muttered to himself that his time was up and braced for death, but it seemed he didn’t want to show weakness in front of An Yuanxi. Even though he knew he couldn’t withstand it, he stood straight, neither dodging nor avoiding, facing the Divine Light head-on.
This valiant appearance actually earned a few more looks of admiration from An Yuanxi, until two skeletons of white bone inserted themselves into the clouds, blocking the two streaks of Divine Light for Yun Ji.
“Bone of Eternal Destruction,” An Yuanxi said, looking at the white skulls absorbing all of the Divine Light, and he slightly huffed at the rising Taoist, “Today is truly auspicious, with the Corpse Bone Protectors all gathered. It seems fitting for this town governor to make accomplishments!”
As a supremely proud past member of the An Clan, An Yuanxi, after joining the royal patrol, naturally disdained to start at the lowest rank tasks like ordinary holy land heirs.
Instead, he picked the colossal outlaws and Evil Kings from the start, taking the most difficult path, so every few years, he went from a nominal official to a town governor, just one level away from the highest rank of the heavenly patroller.
He thought this level would be as smooth as ever, but the pursuit of the Corpse Monk made this proud Saint Child suffer immensely.
The slippery fate skill, as if designed for escaping, always led to the Corpse Monk fleeing before they could encircle him properly. He originally thought that by using the formation, success was guaranteed, but unexpectedly saw the Bone Taoist again.
Although he knew that capturing both of them at the same time was nearly an impossible task, An Yuanxi still appeared full of confidence.
And Feng You, who had just obtained a Divine Artifact and also cultivated a Bone of Eternal Destruction with a wind and cloud pattern painted on it, was fretting about not having an opponent to go against. Seeing An Yuanxi, he certainly didn’t show any weakness. Instead, he turned to Yun Ji and said, “Master Ji, the battle on the ground is chaotic. Please supervise the battle below. As for this Feather God, let the old Taoist take care of him!”
The Bone Taoist spoke politely and tactfully, but Yun Ji could clearly hear the underlying message. Having just experienced the vast disparity, he naturally went with the flow, nodding lightly before descending from the clouds.
“Hmph, willingly degrading oneself!”
After a disdainful snort, the Feather God An Yuanxi and the Bone Taoist Feng You clashed fiercely.
Compared to the superficial martial techniques of ordinary warriors, Tang Luo in the faux mountain naturally focused more on the battle between the powerhouses. For instance, the Speaker Yun Huan against the Yanyun Grandmaster, the Corpse Monk Gu Han against the Xiang Family’s Ancestor, and the condescending Feather God An Yuanxi, although Yun Ji’s exchange with him was but a fleeting clash, allowed Tang Luo to discern a lot.
The An Clan was indeed the An Clan. The heritage of a thousand years was evident from An Yuanxi alone, starting with the Undying Battle Body.
The An Clan, having obtained the Divine Storage from the Han Family, not only gained the Undying Battle Body but also the Battle Edge Tactics. However, they did not rush to let their people practice it. Instead, they merged the two supreme heritages into one.
That was the Xuan Light Shield on An Yuanxi’s body. The four small shields could be better described as the physical manifestations or extensions of Divine Arrays rather than mere shields.
Under the ingeniously crafted design, the divine shields of the Undying Battle Body could exist independently from the flesh. The advantage was that the Undying Battle Body no longer had to use the martial artist’s internal Spiritual Power. Once the small shields were manifested and as long as the internal Spiritual Power recovered, one could resume full strength, or rather, an even stronger strength than before.
Not only that, but as Tang Luo knew from experience, the most fatal flaw of the Undying Battle Body was when it was broken. Once the battle body was breached, the Divine Arrays inscribed in the energy channels were easily damaged. Reactivating them would require repairing the Divine Arrays, which was impossible amidst intense combat.
As such, the Undying Battle Body weakened as the battle went on.
However, the An Clan’s Undying Battle Body, through the integration with the Battle Edge Tactics, beautifully circumvented this flaw. Even if the protective Xuan Light Shields were destroyed, it would not damage the Divine Array structure within An Yuanxi’s body. With a mere input of Spiritual Power to manifest the shields again, the Xuan Light Shields could re-emerge.
Although they forwent the enhancement of the physical body, the overall defense did not decrease and was actually strengthened due to the integration with the Battle Edge Tactics.
With the powerful aggressive attributes of the God Shifting Technique itself, no wonder it could suppress the Xu Clan firmly, being called the strongest sanctuary in the world.
“That’s truly remarkable!”
As a martial arts researcher himself, Tang Luo naturally understood how much effort and energy it would take to integrate two such dissimilar traditions as the Undying Battle Body and the Battle Edge Tactics. It simply indicated that the An Clan had not wasted any time in over a thousand years, showing they didn’t rest on their laurels after inheriting Han Clan’s legacies but instead continued to explore and innovate.
Looking at it this way, the chances of the Han Clan’s restoration path success seemed quite low.
Stroking his chin, Tang Luo gazed at the battle situation in the courtyard, falling into deep thought.
“Not going to help?”
Du Sha’s sudden question broke the quiet of the rock garden.
“Help? Why should we help?”
Tang Luo curled his lip: “Why bother with such idiots who obviously walked into a trap and still fight to the death without retreating? Let’s go.”
“Go where?”
“Follow him.”
Tang Luo pointed at Xiang Ange, who after the Bone Taoist and An Yuanxi had made their move, had quietly slipped away behind the clouds, and said, “That guy’s acting all sneaky, definitely up to no good. Let’s follow him and see.”
“What about this place?”
“They won’t be able to determine the victor anytime soon, no need to get involved.”
Even with the support of the Dutian Heavenly King’s enforcers from the Wind Department, the Xiang Residence was still significantly short in numbers compared to the forces brought by Yun Ji.
Plus, once these villains realized they were trapped in the Divine Array, they became even more ferocious. For the moment, the Xiang Residence seemed to be at a disadvantage, but most of the Dutian Heavenly King’s enforcers were on the level of officials with plenty of experience in leading group battles. Therefore, by breaking into smaller skirmishes, they could barely hold off the decline, turning the Xiang Residence into a battlefield.
Pavilions, towers, and decorated buildings were simply reduced to ruins, making Tang Luo involuntarily recall Sister Xiu’er’s worries when she first arrived at the desolate ridges.
Creating such a picturesque estate required the painstaking efforts of many craftsmen, yet a sudden encounter battle had caused this thousand-year-old famous estate to collapse significantly. It was indeed a sigh-inducing sight.
Finally, taking one last look at the situation of the battle in the sky, Tang Luo and Du Sha disappeared quietly from the rock garden, following the direction Xiang Ange had gone.
Now, with the inner city sealed off by magical formations, Xiang Ange, although he had left the Xiang Residence, couldn’t leave. He headed north instead, arriving in front of a mansion on Xuanwu Avenue.
After nodding to the door official, he was led straight into the central hall, where sat none other than the Chaochang tycoons, as many as twelve of them.
