Chapter 240 A Difficult Future

All of a sudden, a flash of fingers was seen in the void, which was accompanied by whistles and a fierce might that shrouded over the area.

A Yang Grade powerhouse. Based on the force that was displayed by He Defu when he attacked, it was clear that his cultivation base was at Yang Grade. Although he was not at the peak of Yang Grade like Xiaoxiao Sheng, he could not be underestimated.

Ou Yangming focused and entered the integration of Heaven and man at that instant.

Just as he wanted to evade the elder as he usually would, he was struck with a strange thought. Instead of dodging, Ou Yangming stopped and reached out for the elder’s fingers.

He Defu’s eyes lit up, and he began to smile hideously. This young fella is courting his death.’

Nonetheless, the elder later sensed an indescribable pressure, which was released from Ou Yangming’s body. The pressure was so enormous that Elder He was frightened from the bottom of his heart.

With that, the might of the powerful fingers in mid-air reduced, and the elder’s body swayed a little.

“Pow!”

When the fist and the fingers clashed, Ou Yangming trembled a bit and took several steps backward.

On the other hand, He Defu did not gain any advantage too. He flew backward at a high speed and even staggered before he found his footing when he landed. Elder He widened his eyes and stared at Ou Yangming in disbelief.

After all, he was a Yang Grade martial artist, but he ended up not gaining an upper hand when he went head-on against a Yin Grade martial artist.

Moreover, He Defu was slightly terrified. The killing intent from Ou Yangming’s body was able to affect his mental state, causing his mind to waver, which was why he could not fully unleash his power. Ou Yangming’s eyes glowed, and he curled his lips into a smile.

Sure enough, the mental power that he released could greatly affect a martial artist, where his opponent’s strength could be weakened.

Ou Yangming had encountered many powerhouses before this, including several Supreme Great Ancestors, let alone Yang Grade martial artists.

Despite that, he could only resist the powerhouses because of his skills and his equipment set, not because of mere power.

Therefore, it was his first time fighting a Yang Grade martial artist recklessly.

Even so, he was extremely satisfied with the outcome.

He Defu turned slightly pale, and he roared as he flashed to charge at Ou Yangming again like a ghost.

It was embarra.s.sing to be forced to retreat by a Yin Grade martial artist, hence Elder He was determined to recover lost ground, or he would be a laughing stock.

Despite that, Ou Yangming neither avoided the elder nor let him have it his way; the young fellow launched another hit at his chest.

This time, the punch was accompanied by a stronger mental conception impact.

Ou Yangming’s mental power was formidable, but he could not attack by converting the power into substance. However, when he attached it to his fist force, he could raise the momentum to an unreasonable level.

He Defu paused abruptly. He could not wait to peel off the skin and pull out the tendons of the unappreciative Ou Yangming, but when he was halfway making an attack, the young fellow released an incredibly fearsome power through his fist.

The moment He Defu sensed the pressure, he felt like he was up against a Supreme Great Ancestor.

Elder He recalled the time he made a huge mistake in front of the He family’s great ancestor-Supreme Great Ancestor-who raged as a result.

It was a feeling that was enough to make He Defu suffer a mental breakdown.

Fortunately, He Defu had seen a great deal of life, where his decades of experience played an important role during the crucial moment. The elder stood steadily and did not shudder with fear.

That said, the huge pressure affected him greatly. Whether it was through his body movement or the power of his attack, he could not display their mightiness at all.

“Pow!”

Ou Yangming’s punch arrived on time as he hit He Defu’s body.

He did not make any changes to his punch, which was simply made in the forward direction.

Having said that, great deeds were usually done in the simplest ways. As such, the power that was gathered in the simple punch was marvelous.

He Defu was still being pressured by Ou Yangming’s mental power, thus it was inevitable for him to react slower than before. Even though he tried his best to evade the punch, he was. .h.i.t in the shoulder.

The elder groaned due to pain, then he exerted force through the tip of his toes to soar into the sky and retreated.

As soon as He Defu was roughly 35 meters away from Ou Yangming, he exhaled deeply, allowing the nightmare-like feeling of fear in his heart to disappear at once.

‘What a pity,’ Ou Yangming thought. While he could attach his mental power to his fist force, he was restricted by the distance.

Once he was more than 35 meters away from his opponent, the effect would be negligible.

He Defu exercised his shoulder after he landed on the ground. Before long, he yelled strangely again and charged at his opponent because he was not resigned to the outcome. When the elder was within a 35-meter radius from Ou Yangming, the horrifying feeling surfaced again. Under pressure, Elder He froze, and his limbs became powerless as though he was severely ill.
