Chapter 583: Chapter 473: Balance_2
“Not bad… This speed is already quite astounding.” Lawrence’s faint praise came through, a slight smile on his lips.
However, Li Ba’s face darkened because the golden sand in the opponent’s eyes seemed to redistribute, becoming higher on the left and lower on the right.
The gold sand in the left eye rapidly decreased, while the gold sand in the right eye increased rapidly. It seemed to be balancing itself with the eyebrow as a bridge.
With a deliberate feeling this time, Li Ba could clearly sense an invisible heaviness coming over his body!
“Indeed!” Zhang Fei was astonished, “He actually stole my strength!”
“Oh? Unexpectedly, you’re not as clumsy as you look.” Lawrence chuckled lightly, his eyes with flowing gold sand fixed on Li Ba, “It seems you have vaguely sensed my supreme wondrous power…”
Lawrence’s lips curled up, and suddenly he lunged forward with lightning speed.
Li Ba snorted coldly and swung his fist without hesitation!
“Boom!”
However, at the next moment, a tremendous force surged from the opponent’s fist.
Li Ba’s expression changed, and he was instantly sent flying!
“Ugh!”
With a muffled grunt, Li Ba retreated over twenty meters before stabilizing and clutching his chest.
Lawrence rubbed the back of his hand, glancing at the astonished expression on Li Ba’s face, and smiling faintly, said, “It seems you still don’t understand deeply enough…”
Li Ba looked at Lawrence with suspicion, “You can actually retain the strength you amplified!”
“Yes, if unlocking your enhancements caused my amplification to disappear as well, and it’s so insignificant, then how would I be considered a Star Envoy?”
Li Ba’s expression turned completely ugly after hearing this.
Although Four Symbols Transformation could be switched easily, only one spirit beast’s shadow could be summoned at a time.
Currently, he was in White Tiger Phase and lacked the strength boost from Azure Dragon Phase.
The opponent had obtained such tremendous power through him, yet still retained this enhancement even after he lost the Azure Dragon Phase’s strength boost!
This meant that Li Ba couldn’t switch to Vermilion Bird Phase or Xuanwu Form, or else it would only make the enemy stronger!
And to catch up with the opponent again, holding the power of the Four Symbols simultaneously could only be achieved by unlocking the Four Symbols Unification after breaking the seal!
“This is… truly troublesome!” Li Ba took a deep breath, looking at the enemy ahead.
At this moment, Lawrence chuckled and moved swiftly to attack once again…
Near the Star Vein, beside Xu Fan, surrounded by several Star Beasts including Green Bird and Angel.
Among them, the Thunder Ridge Tyrannosaurus was torn and bloodied, with a large hole in its abdomen, being healed by the Angel’s Holy Light.
Across from him, Bailie stood quietly, with Aries Ashley by his side.
Both sides had fallen into a standoff instead of fierce fighting.
Xu Fan looked at the seemingly ordinary Bailie ahead and deeply frowned.
“This guy really is invulnerable to blades and bullets…”
Earlier, Xu Fan had used various attacks.
Physical attacks, energy attacks.
Blunt strikes, sharp strikes.
Melee attacks, ranged attacks…
But any type of attack lost all effect upon contact with the opponent’s body.
Not only did it leave no wounds, but there were no knockback or impact effects either!
Moreover, the opponent’s non-stop offensive and strong combat consciousness had heavily injured his Thunder Ridge Tyrannosaurus during the gap!
Interestingly, when he was about to defend, Pisces also halted its attacks.
Xu Fan asked, “What, you’re not attacking yourself?”
Bailie calmly replied, “My priority is to bring back the Tiger Vein. Even if this is the True Vein, it has to form first.
Additionally… I feel that you’re difficult to deal with, and I can’t win against you quickly.
So I only need to keep an eye on you, and wait for Arthur and Lawrence to defeat their opponents. Then we can handle you together without much effort.”
“You’re so sure they’ll defeat our two Star Lords?” Xu Fan’s eyes turned cold, his voice deep, “You Star Envoys are indeed arrogant!”
Bailie shook his head solemnly, “No, I never underestimate any opponent in battle.
Were not Tianxuan Star and Kaiyang Star involved in the last fight?
Although I can’t recall the exact situation, judging from their strength back then, it seems unlikely that they can win against Arthur and Lawrence.”
Xu Fan’s face darkened even more upon hearing this.
The last surprise attack was successful, but it was three against two.
According to Shen Die and others, Xia Xuan dealt a killing blow at the cost of his life to shoot Leo, while Li Ba fell unconscious after Four Symbols Unification!
Winning was both thrilling and exhausting!
Moreover, now it’s two against two?
Not only without any restraint but potentially restrained!
Xia Xuan’s mobility was less than the swift-as-aurora Sagittarius, and Li Ba had fallen to a disadvantage and couldn’t use Four Symbols Unification easily.
However, Xu Fan’s eyes slightly softened, seemingly thinking of something.
Suddenly, Aries Ashley beside Bailie spoke, “Are you thinking about the backup you left?”
Xu Fan’s expression changed, “Hmm?”
Staring at the slowly rotating star track in the eyes of the white-haired, red-eyed girl, Xu Fan felt as if she had predicted everything.
Ashley whispered as if talking to herself,
“Whether there is top-tier aid… yes.
Number of reinforcements… 1.”
As Ashley softly spoke, Xu Fan’s pupils shrank, his expression turning heavier.
At that moment, in the distance, “boom,” Li Ba was sent flying heavily by Lawrence with golden sand sparkling in his eyes, spouting blood!
Everywhere restricted, Li Ba had already fallen into a disadvantage.
“If I use Four Symbols Unification, at least I can match this Libra’s physical strength, then compete with Martial Skills!”
Li Ba clenched his fists again, wanting to unlock Four Symbols Seal.
But he recalled Su Yuan’s instructions.
“Avoid using Four Symbols Unification shortly, or the side effects will multiply.”
Li Ba sensed his state, tightening his fists and ultimately letting go.
Not only was it for his own reasons.
If it were only him in this battleground, Li Ba would have at least unlocked one or two Four Symbols Seals by now.
But this Libra’s enhancement ability was too strange. If his strength increased and Li Ba couldn’t kill him, it would create a monster that could collapse the entire situation!
Having fought Aquarius, Li Ba couldn’t be certain if Four Symbols Unification could transcend Libra’s limits and destroy him.
Unless…
Li Ba seemed to think of something, his eyes showing a hint of distraction.
With only a moment’s thought, Lawrence leaped up from afar, attacking once again!
In their high-speed clash, the disadvantaged Li Ba was pushed back repeatedly, as Lawrence slammed him heavily onto the ground with a powerful strike.
“Boom!”
With a loud crash, Li Ba spat blood, struggling to get up.
High above, Lawrence dove down, the intense air friction causing a sonic boom as he aimed a powerful kick at Li Ba!
Seeing this, Xu Fan’s heart tightened. The Angel beside him clasped hands, releasing an Angel’s Light aiming at Lawrence.
Bailie was prepared, raising a hand with a dark Twisted Garden blocking the Angel’s Light, swallowing it into oblivion.
“Not good!”
Xu Fan’s heart skipped a beat.
Lawrence’s rapid descent neared Li Ba.
At the critical moment, a terrifying silver thunder shot out from hundreds of meters away, blasting Lawrence off!
“Has that top-tier reinforcement appeared?” Bailie looked towards the source of the silver thunder.
A yellow-faced man in his thirties walked over from afar.
It was the former Tianxuan, Chen Chunhua!
