Lu Hai could hear the soft cry from Ji Xiao Ya and his heart shivered. Ji Xiao Ya was going to execute her killing technique!
But right now, he was too distracted. His legs were staked into the ground as he prepared to defend against the charging Ling Xu.
He was angry that his fist had been injured by Ling Xu’s spear. But his anger for the damaged Mensa Heavy Punch exceeded his anger for his bleeding wounds. The time he had spent to refine it to transform it into a Gold rank weapon was innumerable. To just recover the weapon’s damage inflicted upon it today, would cost him numerous days
That damn bastard!
Lu Hai, who was enraged, did not reserve any of his strength, as his heavy fists were unleashed to its maximum power.
In terms of strength, Lu Hai had the advantage. He had never met another fighter that was stronger than him in terms of strength before. He had even once killed a martial artist only with a single punch.
His talent was average, as had practiced only the normal Heavy Punch Technique. Even so, he was able to become a Gold Ranked Martial Artist due to his creation of a special training method. Honorable Martial Group was the best in refining treasures and weapons. However, Lu Hai was never good at refining his treasures. He managed to discover something new instead. He utilized some of Onyx Soul’s methods, which was to directly inject the Mensa Heavy Punch technique into both of his arms.
Once his flesh and the treasure started to fuse together, his strength increased exponentially. And the refining speed for the Mensa Heavy Punch also increased. He was unconcerned by the incompatibility or inability to harmonize properly between his body and the treasure.
Lu Hai was also determined to become a Gold Ranked Martial Artist, and was willing to go to any extent to realize that dream. He had now managed to reach unprecedented heights.
Even though Ling Xu’s spear techniques were not bad, his strength was incomparable to Lu Hai’s. Lu Hai would push him miles away with just one punch. Lu Hai did not know why he would always make his way back up again after enduring the attack. And it was 3 consecutive attacks on him. Even if it was a steel man, these 3 punches should have already shattered him. But even with his face dipping in blood, Ling Xu was still crazily charging towards him.
This guy was mentally crazy.
Lu Hai’s rage was now accompanied by his fretfulness as he was battling an unreasonable Ling Xu who would not stop until he was dead.
Kill him!
This punch must end his life!
Lu Hai was prepared. He postured himself and lifted his fist, preparing to strike the oncoming Ling Xu.
Hiss!
The hissing sound of the sword rang beside his ear, causing Lu Hai to feel jittery. If Ling Xu was a considered a pest cockroach that could never die, then Crane could be considered a pesky housefly that was constantly giving Lu Hai trouble.
The weak blade attacks were perceived by Lu Hai as child’s play that was not threatening at all.
With a clap of his hands, Lu Hai was able to dissipate the attacks. Crane was like a big black crane, with his hands extended out, nimble floating around. However, Lu Hai did not spot that Crane, which was in mid-air, had light radiating from its eyes.
Ling Xu, while riding on his Flamingo, charged towards the vision of Crane.
Was it time?
A burst of bright light radiated out of Crane’s eyes. He grasped his sword hilt tightly and charged through the clouds.
Lu Hai heard the cries from Crane over the top of his head as he looked atop him.
Moments later, his expression changed drastically.
13 similar looking black figures formed a spherical formation, each one of them holding a sword pointed into the center of the circle. The 13 swords were pointed at each other as they twirled mid-air like a black rose, creating gust of wind that blew up dirt and dust across the battlefield. The shadows cast by them shrouded Lu Hai’s vision.
The lingering hissing sound abruptly came to a stop. The 13 shadows started to wave the long swords within their hands.
Buzz!
Lu Hai could feel an electric current flowing across the surface of his skin as beads of sweat rolled down his body. The 13 scarily looking mechanical weapons seemed to be descending towards him like 13 sharp stakes.
This is…
Within his vision, Lu Hai could see the black-petals like formation suddenly dissipated. The 13 shadowy figures descended rapidly towards him.
Lu Hai’s expression changed. He quickly raised both of his palm to make a shield above him.
Boom!
As Lu Hai unleashed his palm technique, his palms swelled up in size, forming an impenetrable wall as he pushed his palms up towards the oncoming black figures. Feeling the sense of danger, Lu Hai utilized his maximum strength. With such a close proximity, it would bound to destroy them!
Ding ding ding!
Sparks flew everywhere. The 13 figures took turns to throw themselves onto the palm shield while using different sword techniques to attack, causing the defender to be confused by the offensive movement.
Lu Hai couldn’t believe what he saw. All 13 figures were real!
All 13 figures struck his palm shield, each time creating a blinding spark. This was definitely not an illusion.
How was this possible?
Thump!
No matter how powerful his palm technique was, the continuous onslaught of the 13 figures would disintegrate his defence.
Not good!
Lu Hai changed his tactics as he used one palm to defend the aerial attack while using another to attack the 13 figures.
Hhhuuuuuu!
These shadowy figures were blown off higher into the sky like feathers.
Lu Hai did not dare to stop. He directed punch after punch skywards as the shadowy figures flew higher and higher into the sky. But Lu Hai failed to notice that all the 13 figures were together perched on a vertical line.
All 13 Cranes suddenly opened their eyes at once.
The Crane that was at the highest height suddenly spread open his arms and descended rapidly onto the top of the 2nd Crane’s head. Without decreasing in speed, the two of them clashed, and the weirdest scene happened. The 2 cranes started to fuse together.
Clang Clang!
A loud cry from the sword emerged.
The many Cranes started to pile up onto each other, fusing together as one.
Clang Clang Clang!
The uninterrupted cries pierced through the air as it grew even louder.
13 were combined into a whole!
A black warrior emerged as his long black hair fluttered in the wind.
The tip of the Crane Sword had a shimmering radiance. This was a phenomenon when the swords were combined in a high level for it to happen.
A ray of black light started to descend from the heavens!
Boom, Lu Hai’s rock fist disintegrated into millions of pieces of debris. His entire right arm was blasted into bits.
“I am going to kill you!”
Lu Hai descended into insanity.
“Stupid.”
A taunting voice rang throughout the battlefield.
Ling Xu could see the hole that opened in the street. His face was covered in blood but it revealed a soft smile. He used his fingers to control his silver spear. The spear suddenly disappeared.
The sky was left with only specks of twinkling stars .
Lu Hai’s throat suddenly exploded wide open, revealing a hole the size of a fist. His rage was expressed on his face as he gaped his eyes wide.
How…How…could this happen…
Boom, he landed on the ground like a wooden stake.
Crane descended from the air and landed softly on the ground. He nearly kneeled down as he had exhausted most of his energy.
Suddenly, Ling Xu turned his bloody face: “Hey, sissy, what was the technique you just use?”
Crane wiped off the blood on his lips and replied: “Rotating Swords of the Dancing Crane”.
*******
Tang Tian was in danger.
Those small little sparks were dangerous and deadly. They could pierce through buildings effortlessly like knife through butter.
Bang.
A region populated by small houses crumbled into bits from the sparks bombardment. The sparks turned the rocks into dust as they passed through.
This was the first time Tang Tian witnessed such a deadly martial technique.
The only thing he could do was to evade all the attacks.
But the number of sparks were limitless and were almost impossible to dodge them entirely.
Pfff pfff pfff!
Blood spewed out everywhere as Tang Tian suffered several wounds within seconds. Even though the wounds were not deep, the blood had stained his clothes dark red, making the scene look horrific.
The blood made Tang Tian raged.
He was like a wounded beast, filled with rage and anger.
Yes, I know I cannot dodge it, but why should I dodge?
A dazzling radiance blossomed around his palms as he took big strides to charge towards Ji Xiao Ya. He frantically activated his Fire Scythe Ghost Claw to fight off his surrounding sparks.
Soft explosions could be heard as the claw technique hit onto the sparks, creating a light rays that disintegrate the sparks.
Ji Xiao Ya was looking on from a distance. This was the first time she had witnessed someone successfully deflecting her Shark Whirlpool Technique. It was supposed to be hard to defend against just like a pack of sharks. Even after you have killed 10 sharks, you will not be any safer as it would attract even more sharks.
All the struggles and defense would have been worthless.
Ji Xiao Ya looked on as Tang Tian using his claw technique to deflect the sparks even as the attacks become more concentrated. A fiercely looking cloud of sparks were now directed straight towards Tang Tian.
Tang Tian battles cries pierced through the concentrated sparks.
Ji Xiao Ya took joy in hearing his cries of pain. Struggle, struggle more. The more you struggle, the faster you would die.
Suddenly, a blood curdling moan of pain echoed from a distant. Ji Xiao Ya’s expression changed drastically. It was from Lu Hai! Could something have happened to him?
No way, she knew that she had to end the battle quickly!
The once confident Ji Xiao Ya now realized that something was amiss. Tang Tian had survived and struggled for more than 10 minutes.
His battle cries could still be heard from within the sparks. He was not dead yet!
How was that possible?
No one had ever remained in the circular radiance for more than 3 minutes and still survive.
Ji Xiao Ya glanced towards Tang Tian’s direction. The once concentrated sparks were now slowly dissipating, revealing the outline of Tang Tian’s body, who was slowly marching towards her.
The radiance started to fade…
Peng peng peng!
Tang Tian was covered in blood, creating a blood trail behind him as he marched forward. He continued on his offensive, attacking all the sparks with his claw technique.
He only knew of one solution. It was a very simple solution.
Smash them to pieces! Smash all of them to pieces!
No matter how many sparks there were, in the hundreds or even thousands, they would all be disintegrated.
As long as he was able to hit all of them with his claw technique, he would not have to evade any of them.
He frantically attacked the oncoming sparks to defend himself against the attack. However, he had loss a significant amount of blood from the wounds and had started to feel dizzy and weak.
Victory is mine, nobody could take that away from me
Once I defeat her, I will be a Gold Ranked Martial Artist. Tang Tian, you need to hold on and persevere.
You said that before?
As more blood started to drip from Tang Tian, the number of sparks had slowly died down.
The last wave of sparks were finally destroyed to pieces. A bloodied figure stood right in front of a dazed Ji Xiao Ya.
He gritted his teeth and licked the blood of his lips. He was now overwhelmed with confidence.
Hey, I am a Gold Ranked Martial Artist now!
