Chapter 1618 – Relying on external help?
Hearing An Zheng’s words, Wen Yuan could only laugh. This was the opponent he wanted, if he did not have such a domineering attitude, he would feel bored instead.
So he attacked.
Of course Wen Yuan was attacking, he was only attacking.
With his character, how could he possibly do suching as defending? No matter whether it was when he and Tan Shanse had killed Xu Shiyi previously, or even if he had killed a monk later on, he had only attacked, and Tan Shanse had coordinated with him to hold his opponent back. His attacks were sharp and overbearing, he firmly believed that the strongest attack was the strongest defense, and there was no need to defend at all, it was the strongest defense.
He made his move.
Bang!
He lifted up his left hand, and the Cultivation Power on his five fingers was smashed back by An Zheng’s fist before he could even release it.
Hm?
Wen Yuan was startled, how was this possible?
When he attacked Xu Shiyi, his attack speed was so fast that Xu Shiyi did not even have the time to activate the The Art of Space. With Xu Shiyi’s strong The Art of Space, escaping was noroblem, but he still could not give Xu Shiyi even a thousandth of a second to prepare.
Tan Shanse simply did not make a move and only watched from the side. It was not that the monk did not even last three seconds, although the number of times the two had fought was already an astronomical figure, and not that the monk was still lacking.
But just as he was thinking, An Zheng’s fist force was already enough, after being pushed back, he could only defend.
How could this be?
Wen Yuan began to attempt to speed up, doing his best to speed up. He had to suppress An Zheng with his attacks, this was the fighting style that he was good at … However, when he punched, An Zheng’s fist would always be faster than his, so with every punch, he would always defend.
He had no choice but to defend.
In an instant, the two of them had already faced each other at least several thousand times. took four steps back, and only then did he realize that An Zheng was still standing in the same spot as before, not moving at all. An Zheng was still leaning on the wall of the house as he coldly looked at him.
Wen Yuan retreated, this time he retreated on his own accord, he had to increase the distance between them. Since he could not use his advantage in offense at such a distance, then he might as well increase the distance, he was very confident in his Cultivation Power.
He explosively retreated, and then, with his ten fingers in front of him, ten crystal pillars instantly appeared, and shot towards An Zheng.
The front of the crystal pillar was as sharp as a iron rod. An Zheng raised his hand and a layer of faint looking defensive layer appeared in front of him. The first crystal pillar crashed into the defensive layer. The crystal pillar crumbled, the defensive layer also crumbled.
The second crystal pillar appeared right after, as if it would hit An Zheng’s forehead in a thousandth of a second.
The crystal pillar seemed to be charging forward, but in reality, it was disappearing nonstop. Not even an inch further in front of An Zheng, it was only constantly being minced apart.
The other two crystal pillars fell down from above, so fierce that it caused one’s heart to palpitate.
Zhuang Feifei, who was standing far away, subconsciously prepared to save An Zheng. After all, in her memories, An Zheng was not even that powerful of a person … The two of them had been separated for too long, to the point that the person in her memories that thought An Zheng was that handsome youth with clear eyes.
However, when the two crystal pillars were still four to five meters away from An Zheng’s head, they were blocked by an invisible force. The force that was pressing down on the crystal pillars was too strong, to the point that the crystal pillars could not withstand it.
An Zheng seemed to finally be in high spirits, his back leaving the wall as he walked step by step towards Wen Yuan. He raised his left hand and brought his index finger together to form a sword, while the Power of Essence Thunder coiled around the crystal pillar like a dragon, clashing head on with it. The sword qi was like a dragon, clashing head on with the crystal pillar, and after a second of deadlock, the crystal pillar was immediately destroyed by the purest Power of Essence Thunder, thunder energy drilled out from within the crystal pillar, and the crystal pillar immediately shattered.
Wen Yuan’s expression changed. He pressed down with his hands, and the remaining crystal pillars suddenly merged together, forming a huge pillar that descended towards An Zheng’s head.
An Zheng raised his left hand, raised it with one arm, and the pillar suddenly fell down and smashed into his hand. The ground beneath An Zheng’s feet exploded with smoke, but he did not sink down, as the Power of Essence Thunder lingered around him, firmly supporting his legs.
That pillar that was even more terrifying than a mountain smashing down was held up by one hand by An Zheng. Then, witaise of An Zheng’s five fingers, all five fingers grabbed onto the bottom of the crystal pillar. He actually controlled Wen Yuan’s strength and smashed towards Wen Yuan.
Of course, An Zheng could not directly control Wen Yuan’s power. If he could, then he would not have to fight this battle. An Zheng used the simplest and most crude method … With pressure, if you attack me, your strength will be more tyrannical while mine will be more tyrannical.
Wen Yuan raised both of his hands, and the amethyshat had extended out from his hands quickly solidified. They looked like two gigantic shelves that were holding onto the crystal pillar … With a boom, Wen Yuan’s legs exploded, and half of his body was smashed into the ground.
Only then did he realize that he was once again passively defending.
The earth started to shake bit by bit, and the ground started to crack. Purple crystals started to continuously extend out from Wen Yuan’s body, from every pore, so his clothes were instantly torn.
The amethyst that had extended out filled up the cracks in the ground, and became extremely sturdy under his feet. Then, the amethyst began to gradually lift his body up again.
An Zheng did not care about his reaction, and only smashed the crystal pillar one by one. His crystal pillar crumbled bit by bit, and the crystal platform underneath Wen Yuan’s feet also unceasingly crumbled, and the two gigantic support frames in his hands that were used to block the crystal pillar, had also crumbled more than once. It shattered and reformed, then shattered again.
Only after An Zheng smashed away the crystal pillar in his hand did Wen Yuan finally heave a long sigh of relief. The more he smashed the crystal pillar, the shorter it became. When An Zheng was already done smashing the pillar, what did it mean?
When Wen Yuan reacted to it, it was already a little late, An Zheng was already close to him... Previously, the thing Wen Yuan wanted to do the most was to fight in close quarters against other people, even if it wasn’t monks, it would always be close quarters combat. Even though he had already reached the Emperor Level, he still felt that the battle should be close quarters and not long range attacks with Cultivation Power s.
But this time, it was not him who took the initiative to get closer, but An Zheng.
Wen Yuan knew that he couldn’t be passive anymore, so he directly punched towards An Zheng’s face. When he punched, his fist was surrounded by a layer of amethyst, and the hardness of his fist obviously far surpassed a human’s … However, An Zheng only came with a fist. Forget about any amethyst, he didn’t even havultivation Power, because he relied on the strength of his body.
Bang! With a loud explosion, the layer of amethyst surrounding Wen Yuan’s fist instantly shattered. Wen Yuan felt pain in his right hand and immediately determined that at least two of his fingers had broken.
How was this possible?
This was not the first time Wen Yuan thought of this in his mind. How was this possible?
Feng Xiuyang said that An Zheng’s talent was above his, and said that if he did not rely on external strength, he would never be able to catch up to An Zheng.
Tan Shanse said that An Zheng relied on external force, and you can also relied on external force to surpass him.
But now? An Zheng relied on his own body, and he relied on amethyst.
Zhuang Feifei watched from afar, and her palms started to sweat unknowingly. She was very nervous, afraid that An Zheng would meet with some kind of accident, but she did not realize that she was actually excited as well. That young man was no longer the young man she was familiar with, but was instead an extremely domineering man.
When she saw An Zheng’s fist fall down and shatter his amethyst, she couldn’t help but wave his fist. If she didn’t react in time, she would probably cheer like a little girl, just like how a little girl cheered for the boy she liked in a competition.
The crystal stage underneath his feet shattered step by step as he retreated, step by step. The crystal stage that he created with each step he took, broke as he stepped onto the crystal stage to stabilize himself, and the moment An Zheng stepped onto the crystal stage, it became destroyed. With just a single step, An Zheng caused the crystal stage to shatter into pieces …
“This is impossible!”
Wen Yuan finally couldn’t hold back his roar, and started to attack as if he had gone mad. However, after he made a violent move, he realized that he was still defending, because An Zheng’s every punch was a bit faster than his, so he had no choice but to turn into his defense halfway through his punches. From the start, he was in a passive state, and it became more and more difficult for him to defend.
The two fists clashed against each other again, and following the sounds of explosion, several small cracking sounds could be heard. These were sounds that came from the fingers on Wen Yuan’s fist that were also broken, but that was Wen Yuan’s doing … The amethyst quickly extended his fist and wrapped An Zheng’s fist around it. Then, the amethyst began to spread out aerrifying speed, and very quickly, An Zheng’s arm was wrapped by the amethyst, not even a blink of an eye was needed, and An Zheng’s arm was completely engulfed. In the next second, the amethyst might even wrap around An Zheng’s shoulder and head.
“I’ll surpass you! I’ll surpass you!”
Wen Yuan roared as the amethyst s on his body all extended out from his pores, and like a long needle, he fiercely rushed forward and stabbed An Zheng with all of those crystal needles … After the explosion, there was silence.
Wen Yuan and An Zheng were inches away from each other, but that was only close, because Wen Yuan was no longer able to move even an inch forward.
The crystal needles were broken.
He cried out and then retreated frantically. Along the way, he sprinkled a piece of amethyst fragments down, and the amethyst that was connected to An Zheng’s arm shattered … The one with the problem was Wen Yuan’s arm, it looked like it was badly mutilated, as though it had been cut thousands of times.
An Zheng’s Power of Essence Thunder rushed out from under the cover of the amethyst. The amethyst covered An Zheng’s arm, but at the same time, the Power of Essence Thunder invaded Wen Yuan’s arm.
An Zheng just looked at Wen Yuan coldly, his expression calm, but Wen Yuan could actually see the killing intent in An Zheng’s eyes.
