222 A Battle Without Limits (2/2)

”How interesting. It's indeed interesting to have an opponent in a fighting game,” said Lance as he stopped his attacks.

”Sorry, I've already said that I don't like to play fighting games. I don't understand what that feeling is,” Zhou Wen said.

However, Lance ignored Zhou Wen's words as he continued, ”Do you know why I like to play games? It's because, in reality, I can't find a match, so I can only find joy in games. The rules and skills in the game restrict my performance, which makes me feel a sense of difficulty. Unfortunately, a game is still a game after all. There are still rules that can be found. No matter how the mechanism is adjusted, once one knows the rules, after playing for some time, one can easily defeat them. This is also why I do not wish to know anything about An Tianzuo before meeting him. I'm afraid that I will discover a pattern. That will make defeating him boring.”

”Then you can try leveling up games. There will always be a stronger boss waiting for you,” Zhou Wen said.

”So what if it's an even stronger boss? It's just tweaked strength and skills to make it stronger. In essence, it's no different from those ordinary monsters. Powerful bosses are identical in every way, but an interesting soul has a different charm to it.” Lance stared at Zhou Wen with a fervent gaze. ”It's been a long time since I had such a great battle. You are the one who has made me reacquire the joy of combat. I originally imagined I would find it again on the day I meet An Tianzuo.”

”To be honest, I prefer to hunt those soulless bosses,” Zhou Wen said as he shrugged.

”No, you aren't that kind of person. You are just like me deep down. You thirst for battle,” said Lance as he relaxed his body. As he walked towards Zhou Wen, he said, ”Let me see what your limit is.”

With that said, Lance suddenly moved. However, this time, he didn't use his continuous combo attacks like a game. At the instant he moved, his speed left behind images that instantly appeared in front of Zhou Wen.

Zhou Wen tapped his toes on the ground as he rapidly retreated. However, in the next second, the Lance in front of him turned blurry. The real Lance appeared above Zhou Wen's head like a god that had descended to the mortal world. Along with it came his fist that crashed down with a terrifying battle aura.

Even the Dragon Gate Fairy Skill, after its evolution, couldn't dodge the punch. Zhou Wen gathered strength for Golden Palm and used the Seven Distribution Palm's Sky-Supporting Pillar to meet Lance's fist.

Boom!

The battle aura blasted out as terrifying forces caused Zhou Wen's legs to sink into the specially-made rubber ground.

With the clash of powers, Lance's figure strangely used the force in the air as leverage. He turned blurry once again, leaving behind an afterimage. His true body had already plummeted to the ground like a meteor, shattering the ground through the quaking. At the same time, he sent another punch straight at Zhou Wen.

With Zhou Wen's legs sinking into the ground, it was already impossible for him to dodge. He switched the Primordial Energy Art to a Dao Body and used Astral Suction Palm at the same time. He sucked and guided Lance's fist, causing it to tilt to the side as his body brushed past Zhou Wen.

However, Lance's reaction was too fast. In the split second, he passed him by, he leveraged the momentum from the charge to twist his body and kicked Zhou Wen like a sweeping blade.

His actions happened in one swift motion. It was unworldly.

His Primordial Energy Skill… seems to have broken through the rules of a Legendary stage's rank… Xia Bing looked at Lance as she felt mixed feelings.

Dugu Chuan also smiled bitterly to himself. Lance had gone even further than they had imagined. He had never been serious in their previous battles.
