I Can See Your Combat Power
Chapter 1208 - Chapter 1208 Chapter Five Hundred and One Are You Afraid

Chapter 1208: Chapter Five Hundred and One: Are You Afraid? Chapter 1208: Chapter Five Hundred and One: Are You Afraid? Struck squarely in the chest by the force of Yin and Yang with the same root, even a Martial Ancestor of the Luo Family known for their tough training would not escape the fate of their energy channels crumbling. However, Grandmasters are called such for a reason, and that’s due to the absolutely formidable vitality of their spirit-qualified bodies.

The shattered energy channels were being repaired by the pure essence of innate spiritual power. With a great surge of blue light in his eyes, the Yanyun Grandmaster expressionlessly leaped up from beneath the ground, the Immortal Cloud Whisk Soul in his right hand transforming into a five-colored cloud whip that hung low beside him.

“Oh no, this Grandmaster seems to be getting angry…”

Tang Luo appeared somewhat helpless. Aside from the Power of Returning Ruins that comes from Star Demise and the Blood River Divine Sword, which assimilated all energies, that punch of Yin and Yang from the same root was basically the peak of his attack power at this stage. In terms of sheer destructive force, this punch was even three parts stronger than the Two Ambiguity Innate Qi.

But even having taken such a massively powerful strike head-on, Xiang Yan only sustained minor injuries, which meant that the task of defeating him was nearly impossible for Tang Luo to accomplish.

Ultimately, there was still too much disparity in spiritual power. Trying to use thirty thousand units of spiritual power to combat a Grandmaster with nearly two hundred thousand was unachievable, no matter how prodigious the talent.

Just like the evaluation once made in front of the arena at Martial Saint Mountain, comparing Xiang Loulan and Bu Lin, he could temporarily suppress Xiang Yan by borrowing the profound supernatural secret techniques, but a single mistake–whether being struck by the Square Heaven Unfixed Divine Pupil or lashed by the divine whip–would cost him most of his fighting strength. The most critical issue was that the opponent was highly skilled in the Yun Clan Soft Technique and not weak at all in terms of physical art. The fight was unwinnable; it was time to consider a strategic retreat.

Watching Xiang Yan’s spirit surge continuously and his aura grow stronger, Tang Luo covertly glanced to the south, a sense of urgency rising in his heart.

The reason he had appeared was to allow the people from the Cloud Summit Council to quickly secure victory over the forces outside South City. At the very least, they should recapture Liu Qingzong and take him back to Cloud Summit Tower.

But whether it was due to the warriors from the Ye and Luo Families not being united in purpose or issues with cooperation, despite having the upper hand in numbers and the presence of elite fighters, they failed to establish any decisive advantage.

Instead, it was Xiang Longteng with his black-armored warriors who had been piercing through the left and scattering their formations to the right, over and over.

This illogical scene puzzled Tang Luo; he did not feel that the black-armored warriors led by Xiang Longteng were so exceptionally elite that they could overcome their superiors and achieve such a steamrolling momentum.

Yet, because of the continual thrusts against the formations, Xiang Longteng’s position within the formation gradually became somewhat detached from the Xiang Family’s square formation.

This gave Tang Luo a vague understanding, yet he dared not confirm it with certainty.

For now, he had to deal with this Yanyun Grandmaster wielding a long whip, radiating a desire to kill.

The two fought together once again, and this time Tang Luo was unfortunately at a disadvantage. The long whip, coiling like a golden snake, posed a great restraint for the robust Zen Staff. The extremely long whip and the masterful techniques allowed Xiang Yan to defend while he attacked. The divine whip, transformed from Immortal Cloud Whisk Soul, was like a living creature, not only autonomously seeking Tang Luo’s weaknesses but also splitting into five, for offense and defense, for poking and coiling, both tough and fierce as a dancing dragon and as changeable and unpredictable as clouds rolling and spreading.

Tang Luo could only fight while retreating, primarily focusing on not getting entangled by the divine whip, lest it leads to a series of lethal strikes.

And as Xiang Yan’s prolonged offensive failed to take Tang Luo down, his impatience grew. Several times he almost succumbed to the impulse to assist with the Square Heaven Unfixed Divine Pupil but forcefully suppressed the urge every time.

This unpredictably shifty yet incredibly composed style of combat put Tang Luo increasingly on the defensive. It wasn’t until he sensed six strong presences swiftly closing in from behind that Xiang Yan finally showed a crack in his focus, which Tang Luo seized upon with the Innate Divine Sword to distance himself.

Turning his head, he saw six martial ancestors of considerable prowess leaping out from the platforms of cloud Summit Tower, approaching at great speed, and in a few dozen breaths more, they would reach the battlefield.

Xiang Yan had also been distracted by noticing these two quickly approaching teams of Martial Ancestors, which had allowed Tang Luo to break free from the wild dance of the whip’s shadow.

“Is this the choice of the Longxi Alliance?”

With a divine whip in hand, Xiang Yan coldly asked Tang Luo, “Does the Pride of Longxi not fear becoming the blade in someone else’s hand, to be discarded like worn-out shoes after breaking?”

“Swords and knives are forged for the purpose of cutting down others–if they break, it’s because they were not tough enough. A broken sword or a shattered blade being discarded–what is there to regret?”

Tang Luo twirled his staff, then slung the Great Dao Thunder Chanting Staff over his shoulder, and said nonchalantly to Xiang Yan.

“Does the Pride of Longxi think that with six extra helpers, he can defeat me?”

Dangerous gleams swirled in the depths of his deep blue divine pupils as Xiang Yan asked Tang Luo with a frosty voice.

“To defeat you, why would I need to borrow the hands of others?” Tang Luo cocked his head and said dismissively, “Let’s call off today’s sparring. Some other day, I’ll seek a battle with the Grandmaster.”

Worried about not having an opportunity to slip away, the very help he needed from the cloud council had arrived–there was no better time to leave than now.

The flippant attitude of Longxi’s Pride enraged Xiang Yan, and the furious Grandmaster said sternly, “Stop as you wish, leave as you like–does the Pride of Longxi consider me merely a sparring partner for his amusement?”

“That’s not entirely out of the question.” Tang Luo shrugged, the bells on his Zen staff chiming clearly, “If the Grandmaster disagrees, shall I entertain the Grandmaster a bit longer?”

“Ha!” Xiang Yan said with a cold laugh, “There will be plenty of time in the future. When I am free, I will surely pay Longxi a proper visit!”

“So… is this a threat?”

Tang Luo furrowed his brow, seemingly puzzled, “You all seem to think that just because I’m young, a couple of threats will scare me off–is that it?”

“Is the Pride of Longxi scared?”

“What’s there to be scared of?”

Looking at Xiang Yan, Tang Luo curled his lip and mocked, “The Xiang Family is too busy dealing with its own troubles to be making threats here. Have you been a Grandmaster for so long that your brain’s gone bad, thinking the whole world has to tiptoe around you?”

In the midst of his speech, several Martial Ancestors from the Ye Family broke through the clouds and rapidly approached. Sensing the sound of breaking air not ten miles behind him, Tang Luo had no mood left for conversation with Xiang Yan. He vanished instantly with a flicker-and-switch movement technique, leaving only a lighthearted tolling of a bell resonating in the air.

“Instead of threatening people everywhere, you might want to think about how you’ll get past the immediate crisis. Oh and, by the way, a head just soared into the air over at the South City office. From the looks of it, it seems to be one of your Xiang Family’s Martial Ancestors. Congratulations, what a vibrant start to the day!”

Xiang Yan was initially startled to see Tang Luo employing the Yun Family’s unique footwork, then was further shocked by the message. He hurriedly activated his Square Heaven Unfixed Divine Pupil to its fullest capacity and looked towards the south.

Scenes magnified rapidly under the azure divine light, allowing the Yanyun Grandmaster to see clearly through dozens of miles of visual obstruction, to the battle in front of South City.

Xiang Longteng surrounded by eight hundred black-armored warriors was deeply entrapped. Ye Mo and Luo Xuan were attacking from both sides, the Qi Zen Kasaya Sealing Heaven Array blocked the light of the Xuanji Jade teleportation, and with the slash of the Three Elements Divine Blade, that head soaring into the air was none other than Xiang Longteng, eyes wide open in death. The Yanyun Grandmaster, with eyes bulging in rage, reached out, but could only helplessly lower his arm…

Two Martial Ancestors from the Cloud Summit Tower arrived at the battlefield of the two, and seeing the Yanyun Grandmaster emanating a low-pressure aura of death, they were uncertain whether to advance or retreat.
