Although Elder Tian He’s aura was terrifying, Luo Feng did not care.
Because he had long known that Elder Tian He’s strongest ability was the Body Close Combat Method.
Luo Feng even felt a bit sentimental.
In Elder Tian He, Luo Feng saw the common predicaments of cultivators from the Dark Sacred Realm.
“After completely hitting a bottleneck in cultivation, they would try all methods to find a path that might lead them out of the Braided Cage,” thought Luo Feng. Elder Tian He had learned over a hundred inheritances, yet he ultimately chose the bloodline path.
The bloodline path, where Elder Tian He had reached the Half Primordial Level, just one step further and he could achieve the Ultimate Awakening, escaping the Braided Cage! This path at least held a sliver of a chance to ‘escape the Braided Cage’.”
“Facing bottlenecks, endless years could not bring further progress. Cultivators of the Dark Sacred Realm would exhaust every method,” Luo Feng pondered, “I wonder what kind of bottleneck I will encounter in the future.”
“Luo Feng, let’s see whose physical body is stronger, yours or my Eternal Night Netherworld Kite Body?”
After Elder Tian He spoke, he vanished out of thin air.
However, the Biomimetic Eye of Destruction on Luo Feng’s forehead could see, a subtle fluctuation flashed by, and it had already reached his proximity, where Elder Tian He’s fingers swept past his chest like blades.
“Hiss hiss hiss—” A sharp edge cut across his chest.
Luo Feng stood there, watching the scene with interest.
The robe formed from his own energy, also fortified by the ‘Undying Heart,’ remained unmarked even as the sharp edge cut across the chest of his robe.
“My Body Secret Technique ‘Undying Blood Sea Body’, based on the Star Tower Blood-colored Scale, inherently has some undying effects. With the Secret Treasure ‘Undying Heart’ enhancing it, why should I fear your attack?” Luo Feng clearly saw the whole process of Elder Tian He’s move.
“Swoosh.” “Swoosh.” “Swoosh.”…
As Elder Tian He moved, he transformed into a covert airstream, which Luo Feng would not have been able to see without the Biomimetic Eye of Destruction.
During the rapid movements, he continuously slashed Luo Feng’s body, slashing over ten times in a blink, but failed to damage the robe at all.
“Elder Tian He, is that all you’ve got?” said Luo Feng.
Previously, Luo Feng used the Endless Blood Sea along with the Formation to block and annihilate those hundreds of Daoist Soldiers. This time, however, he responded to his enemy in his physical body form.
“Your protective robe, is it indestructible?” Elder Tian He appeared far away, surprised, “You, as a new Elder, certainly have plenty of treasures. But however tough the robe might be, the endurance limit of your life form ultimately has a ceiling.”
Elder Tian He’s body suddenly transformed, his stature burgeoned, and even grew three pairs of silvery-gray wings on his back, his body covered in silvery-gray fur, his head transforming, eventually becoming a gigantic avian humanoid.
This appearance also excited many onlookers atop the walls of Yulan City.
“Eternal Night Netherworld Kite!”
“Is this Elder Tian He’s ‘Eternal Night Netherworld Kite Body’?” Many onlookers had purchased Divine Emperor’s intelligence, which contained this information about Elder Tian He.
The giant silvery-gray avian humanoid radiated strong waves of will; after all, it was cultivated based on the ‘High Level Primordial Life Bloodline’, which had great potential and also bore Elder Tian He’s hope of escaping the Braided Cage.
At this moment, Luo Feng also became a bit more solemn.
“Hmph!”
Elder Tian He flapped his three pairs of wings, instantly reaching close to Luo Feng, and his claw was already striking down.
Unlike Luo Feng’s huge, furry claw, Elder Tian He’s current claw was much more lean and fierce.
“Boom——”
This claw strike went straight towards Luo Feng’s head.
Luo Feng did not even dodge, he directly met it with a palm, as if he intended to hold up the entire sky!
Bang~~~
Their hard blows clashed! Elder Tian He aimed to deplete Luo Feng’s energy with terrifying might, but in this hard clash, Elder Tian He detected the power of Luo Feng’s palm. Although Elder Tian He had a slight advantage, the margin was too small.
“A new Elder, and his body is this strong?” Elder Tian He frowned slightly, his three pairs of wings flapping, and his devastating claws continuously struck down, yet Luo Feng boldly met each strike with his palm.
“Rise!”
Luo Feng yelled.
The Endless Blood Sea immediately raised huge waves, engulfing Elder Tian He in an instant.
The Xuanqing Sky Annihilation Formation operated!
The Blood Sea, binding and strangulating Elder Tian He from all directions, hindered his huge form, slowing his wing flapping significantly, reducing his eruptive might, naturally weakening each claw strike, even putting him at a disadvantage when clashing directly with Luo Feng.
“Elder Tian He, your moves are quite weak,” Luo Feng laughed heartily, as his majestic form battled against the immense bird man.
The Blood Sea’s binding and strangulation, plus the physical body combat, indeed gave Luo Feng the upper hand.
The physical body form along with the Endless Blood Sea, this was the complete form of the ‘Undying Blood Sea Body’.
“I’m still at a disadvantage?” Elder Tian He felt quite suffocated; in Yulan City, facing many troubles, normally the Eternal Night Netherworld Kite Body was enough, and in his original plans, relying on the Eternal Night Netherworld Kite Body, he should have killed Luo Feng’s avatar by now.
Who would have thought, up till now, he still hadn’t forced out that super-gigantic claw!
“If fifty percent strength is not enough, then let it be one hundred percent!” Elder Tian He’s eyes flickered with blood light.
He had never fully unleashed his power in Yulan City, and of course, this powerful method had only been perfected over hundreds of millions of years.
“Boom!!!”
Elder Tian He’s hair below, the skin surface began to show the Formation Diagram. Dense Formation Diagrams covered every inch of skin, even the surface of Elder Tian He’s eyeballs, were emerging with Formation Diagrams.
If one could peek inside his body, every drop of blood within him would bear the imprint of formation diagrams.
Formation diagrams are the fundamental path through which Elder Tian He has grown from weakness to his current strength.
He used formation diagrams to refine Daoist soldiers.
He even attempted to treat his ‘Eternal Night Netherworld Kite Body’ as a Daoist soldier, imprinting countless formation diagrams upon his body to further unlock the potential of his bloodline, aiming for the ‘Ultimate Awakening.’
Although he was far from reaching Ultimate Awakening, the fusion of formation diagrams and the Eternal Night Netherworld Kite Body indeed significantly enhanced the power of the latter.
“Hmm?” Luo Feng, with his Biomimetic Destruction Eye, though unable to see inside Elder Tian He, could see densely packed formation diagrams emerging on the skin beneath the hair. These formation diagrams circulated with golden light, drastically boosting Elder Tian He’s aura.
“This strength?”
“Does Elder Tian He have this strength?”
Among the spectators on the city wall of Yulan City, several elders’ avatars, who were quite familiar with Elder Tian He, immediately determined… this had already surpassed the abilities recorded about Elder Tian He.
“He has countless formation diagrams imprinted on his skin.”
“It seems he has successfully fused the formation diagrams with the Eternal Night Netherworld Kite Body.”
These elders were secretly astonished.
The Great Dao has intersections; different cultivation systems indeed had the potential to combine, but achieving this was extremely difficult.
…
Elder Tian He’s body faintly glowed with golden light as his eyes integrated with formation diagrams stared at Luo Feng, his voice booming: “This is my first time going all out in Yulan City, Luo Feng, this is your honor!”
The words had just fallen.
Boom—
Elder Tian He’s massive three pairs of wings vibrated, completely shredding the surrounding Endless Blood Sea, and a terrifying claw strike directly hit Luo Feng’s chest.
“Bang!” Luo Feng felt the overwhelming force, involuntarily flying backward, crashing into the Blood Sea.
“Boom!”
At this moment, Elder Tian He ferociously pursued Luo Feng, one claw causing countless Blood Waves to explode, his wings beating causing numerous Blood Seas to break and ascend, already consuming some of the Blood Sea.
“I’m injured?” Luo Feng was surprised.
Despite being enhanced by the Undying Heart, Elder Tian He could hurt him!
Luo Feng also realized that he should not underestimate the top powerhouses of countless worlds! These powerhouses each had their opportunities. He had not learned any ‘Half Primordial Inheritance’ to explore his path without interference.
But those cultivators who practiced numerous inheritances, integrating wisdom from all aspects into themselves, also followed a very powerful path.
“Compared to these elders who have been around for innumerable years, my accumulations are still too shallow,” Luo Feng clearly knew that these elders mainly wandered in the Dark Sacred Realm and lacked many treasures in the Nine Rivers Sacred Realm, hence their power was somewhat inferior.
“Boom!” “Boom!” “Boom!”
Elder Tian He’s immense three pairs of wings commanded terrifying authority, annihilating everything around, causing countless Blood Waves to ascend. He continued to cover Luo Feng with claw after claw, completely suppressing him in the fight.
“Elder Tian He, your accumulation is indeed deeper than mine,” Luo Feng spoke, “This battle can also come to an end now.”
Boom—
Suddenly, Luo Feng stretched out his hand, and his arm swelled, his palm transforming into a gigantic shaggy claw!
With the enhancement of the Undying Heart, Luo Feng’s power could rival Elder Tian He’s ‘Eternal Night Netherworld Kite Body.’ Now controlling this claw, Luo Feng’s divine power was also activating the secret patterns inside the claw, boosting its might.
Compared to Luo Feng fighting bare-handed, using this claw dramatically brought a surge in power.
“Hm?” Elder Tian He saw the gigantic shaggy claw, its might too strong, and he realized he could not overcome it.
This one claw could even tear apart two or three scales of the Primordial Wild Hoof Leader.
Boom—
Under this one claw!
Covering heaven and earth, dividing heaven and earth, it became a world of its own cage.
In this world cage, Elder Tian He had no escape and could only resist with full force. With a resounding boom, the massive claw ripped apart, still tearing apart two of his wings, blood flying, Elder Tian He showing a hint of powerlessness.
From just one exchange, it was clear the disparity in power was too significant, there was no chance to fight!
“At least, you forced me to use this claw,” Elder Tian He silently sighed, he knew about Luo Feng’s gigantic shaggy claw, but Luo Feng had never used it, which frustrated Elder Tian He.
Only at the last moment did he finally force Luo Feng’s move.
Though he lost, Elder Tian He was quite satisfied.
“I lost!”
Elder Tian He’s remaining wings closed, instantly transforming into a streak of golden light, instantly penetrating the world membrane formed by the ‘Palm World,’ and in a flash, he had escaped to inside East City Gate.
Seeing this, Luo Feng’s right hand instantly returned to normal, the Endless Blood Sea converging into one, once again becoming an ordinary-looking black-haired man.
Yet, at this moment…
Many spectators on the walls of Yulan City were in disbelief as they watched the black-haired man, who after that gigantic one claw strike, even Elder Tian He was instantly seriously injured and fled?
