Chapter 40.2
As if having felt He Quanxin’s battle intent, that masked man suddenly took a step forward, and this step was already enough for him to arrive right before He Quanxin.
His charge unexpectedly brought a burst of scorching heat. Furthermore, the two palms that he’d unleashed looked horrifying as if branding irons.
He Yiming immediately thought to himself that this was certainly a fire-type technique that had attained the tenth layer.
In the five-phases, fire-type techniques might not be the number one in terms of offense, but as far as aggression was concerned, they were the best.
As the fire-type technique was unleashed to the extreme, an aura like that of burning the sky and boiling the ocean erupted like a volcano.
“Ha….”
The air in the surrounding was immediately influenced and became dry and scorched. The small flowers and gra.s.s, over which he’d stepped across, immediately withered down.
He Quanxin’s eyes s.h.i.+ned. He didn’t issue any battle cry and counterattacked in silence.
His hands evenly stretched out. It seemed as if there was a huge, insurmountable mountain before him. However, as his hands stretched out, it seemed even this mountain would be toppled.
Earth-type technique’s profoundness, steadiness, and severity was being vividly displayed by him.
Precisely under such a battle where he could fight without worries and both sides fight severely without holding back, could he unleash his body’s full potential. At this moment, He Quanxin only felt rejuvenated and br.i.m.m.i.n.g with vigour.
“Bang….”
A gigantic sound wave spread out as the palms of the two struck against each other.
The masked man jerked forward before suddenly retreating. His hands that were surrounded in red somewhat paled.
He Quanxin’s legs were evenly stretched out, entering several inches into the ground. A red colored light suddenly flashed on his body and a trace of dark, burnt color appeared on his outer robe. However, it was only a slight damage to his clothes. He hadn’t suffered any true injury at all.
Although this strike gave an impression that both were evenly matched, as a spectator, He Yiming could tell that his eldest uncle turned out to be a notch above in the end. The boulder weighing down on his heart was immediately lifted.
During a battle of experts of the same rank, disparity of a thread was akin to a difference of a thousand li.
With this much difference of a thread, if the masked man didn’t have some special trick, he’d basically no chance at winning.
If any of the Xiao brothers somehow managed to break through into the tenth layer, He Yiming would be concerned for his eldest uncle. After all, they had grasped an agility type Xiantian technique. Houtian cultivators with Xiantian battle skills were absolutely unrivalled among the same ranks.
However, this person was clearly different. He’d evidently not cultivated some Xiantian battle skill, but merely some ambiguous agility technique. How could he prevail over He Quanxin?
After all, He Quanxin was not a novice as well. He’d cultivated his martial skill for several decades. Even He Wude praised him as the martial lunatic of the He clan.
Especially the techniques he cultivated were that of the earth-type which were the firmest among the five-phases. The most distinguished feature of such techniques was precisely stability. Unless in the presence of a restrictive technique, during the battle, if an earth-type cultivator’s strength was somewhat weaker than the opponent, he’d basically no chance of winning, but vice versa, he wouldn’t be able to lose even if he wished.
Latrine’s rock, repulsive yet hard- this wa
s the true portrayal of earth-type techniques.
“Who….”
“An a.s.sa.s.sin….”
“Catch the intruder….”
Almost the next moment, countless cries began to echo from various corners of the manor.
The intensity of the exchange between two tenth layer experts was so severe, not to mention the people in this courtyard had no chance of sleeping again, even the people in the neighbouring courtyards were also jolted awake by the loud sound.
The masked man profoundly gazed at He Quanxin, then suddenly laughed out loud and said, “A fine skill, earth-type tenth layer….. much appreciated.”
After saying these words, his body flickered and left looking as if a cloud of unceasingly dancing black flames.
He Quanxin’s feet slightly advanced before suddenly stopping, he began to involuntarily look at that retreating figure in contemplation.
With his discerning eyes, he could naturally tell that the counterpart’s agility technique was above his. Even if he chased with all his might, he would only fail in the end. This being the case, instead of disgracing himself, it would be better for him to save his energy!
