Chapter 1088: Chapter 1088: Tang Tianpeng’s True Purpose

"Kid, if your strength is only this much, then you can prepare to die."

Tang Tianpeng’s aura grew increasingly strong, clearly no longer intending to conceal his cultivation strength. After all, the two had already exchanged dozens of moves, and if he still couldn’t defeat Lin Chen, it would be an insult to Tang Tianpeng.

Yet, Tang Tianpeng also knew that Lin Chen definitely hadn’t displayed his full strength either.

At the All-Trade Building, when the two collided, Tang Tianpeng distinctly sensed the powerful mysteries in Lin Chen’s punch, containing not just one type.

Mind you, mastering two kinds of mysteries at the Nirvana Realm Second Layer Cultivation, this young man was far from ordinary.

Buzz—

Upon hearing Tang Tianpeng’s words, Lin Chen’s aura also quickly intensified.

After clashing with Tang Tianpeng, Lin Chen gained some understanding of these heavenly prides from the Central State.

Compared to the heavenly prides of the Eastern Domain, the heavenly prides from the Central State are indeed much stronger.

Take Tang Tianpeng before him, for instance, who is several levels above Xue Qing with whom Lin Chen dueled in the Eastern Domain.

Thus, Lin Chen knew it was truly necessary to show some real techniques.

With the eruption of power, Lin Chen waved his large sleeve, and a purple power of thunder and lightning appeared in his hand, slithering like an electric python.

At the same time, Tang Tianpeng also employed his techniques, with a rhino’s hoof transforming upon his fists, clearly generated through some divine skill.

The mere rhino hoof exhibited a powerful aura; if fully transformed, its power would be unimaginable.

Lin Chen was shocked internally, musing that indeed the techniques of heavenly prides from the Central State were beyond comparison to martial artists from the Eastern Domain.

Next, both unleashed their moves, colliding once again.

Boom—

The two powerful forces collided, erupting into countless energy impacts in the sky.

Fortunately, their battle was in the sky, not on the ground; otherwise, the eruption might affect a range of several miles.

The guards of the Cloud Dragon Kingdom within Tian Que City do not interfere with martial artists’ private duels within the city as long as the battle does not damage the city’s facilities, they will turn a blind eye.

But if the city is damaged, as long as innocent lives aren’t harmed, compensation is all that’s required.

After all, if the Cloud Dragon Kingdom intervenes too much in Tian Que City’s matters, it might provoke discontent among the factions within the city.

At this moment, Lin Chen and Tang Tianpeng’s battle surprisingly ended in a draw, neither gaining an advantage over the other, but this was only because neither had fully displayed their strength.

In reality, both had different plans in mind.

For Lin Chen, he had only used the Five Thunders Body Tempering Art he recently practiced; if he integrated the Thunderfire Mysteries into his fist technique, even without deploying the sword array, Lin Chen was confident he could defeat Tang Tianpeng.

However, doing so would reveal Lin Chen’s excessively strong power displayed in the Central State, inevitably attracting others’ high attention.

Moreover, even using the Thunderfire Mysteries would result in great exhaustion for Lin Chen, potentially leaving him in a weakened state after the battle.

Understandably, there were many experts watching the battle, including some true Creation Realm experts.

For Tang Tianpeng, he similarly didn’t want to prematurely expose his true strength, having his own schemes.

After the exchange, both suffered some minor injuries. Lin Chen was shattered by Tang Tianpeng’s rhino hoof power, causing numerous cracks on his body and nonstop bleeding. Tang Tianpeng, on the other hand, was filled with electricity, with multiple scorched areas on his body, trembling occasionally.

Lin Chen’s injuries were superficial, while Tang Tianpeng’s internal organs were damaged by the lightning, requiring some time to heal.

The two exchanged glances, and Tang Tianpeng ultimately chose not to continue attacking.

If Tang Tianpeng continued, Lin Chen might have no choice but to unleash more powerful force.

Subsequently, Tang Tianpeng departed with his people.

"Boss, you’re injured."

After Tang Tianpeng left, Su Yun and Su Dong quickly rushed to Lin Chen’s side, asking worriedly.

Su Yun was once again shocked internally, not expecting his boss to still possess such formidable power, much stronger than when they were in the Secluded Orchid Mountain Range.

"It’s nothing, just a superficial wound."

Lin Chen glanced at Su Yun and said casually.

Upon hearing this, Su Yun mentally gave Lin Chen a thumbs up, thinking that despite the severity of the injuries just being superficial wounds, his boss was truly admirable.

However, just as Su Yun was thinking this, both he and Su Dong noticed that Lin Chen’s wounds were rapidly healing, completely healed in less than ten breaths.

"Boss, you’re amazing!"

Su Yun expressed heartfelt admiration, finally understanding why Lin Chen said it was just a superficial wound.

Due to the commotion caused by Lin Chen and Tang Tianpeng’s duel, many experts in Tian Que City took notice, including Creation Realm experts from the Su Family.

Witnessing Lin Chen’s tremendous strength, they were internally shocked, wondering if their young master had befriended a boy with such terrifying power, seemingly a heavenly pride from some major sect.

Everyone speculated quietly, unsure whether this was a blessing or a curse for the Su Family.

Afterwards, everyone returned to the Su Family.

"Young Master, why didn’t you exert your full strength to slay that kid just now?"

On the way back, a guard beside Tang Tianpeng looked at him inquiringly.

Tang Yan, accompanying Tang Tianpeng for many years, deeply understood Tang Tianpeng’s strength. His dragon lizard divine skill could already transform into most of its form, its power far exceeding the half-arm exhibited earlier. If fully unleashed, it could easily defeat Lin Chen.

"What do you know, that kid is not easily dealt with. If I wanted to defeat him earlier, I’d definitely have to go all out, but in doing so, it would expose my real strength."

"Revealing all my cards in front of those people in Tian Que City is obviously not worth it."

"Besides, do you think my real purpose in making a move was to kill that kid?"
