Right next to me? Xue Ying was startled. After receiving the Black Dragon’s reminder, he had been extremely careful when entering this palace hall, and did his best to extend his senses all around him. The Black Dragon’s mention of a danger lying in the white fog had caused Xue Ying to further increase his cautiousness.

Bu he had not discovered the enemy!

It was the Deity warrior that discovered it!

Hong! Xue Ying did not hesitate in activating his Gravity Domain. The might force of repulsion pushed away all matter in his surroundings, whether it be the pillars of the hall, or the permeating white fog. Against the power of gravity, they had all been easily pushed away. However, although the permeating fog had momentarily drifted away, it soon recovered stability once again—the gravitational force could do nothing to push it away.

Something is amiss. My gravitational force could kill any ordinary peak stage Saint demon, yet this fog was able to resist it? Xue Ying was alarmed.

Weng~

Part of the pervading white fog in the surrounding suddenly condensed out into a figure. It had the shape of an ape wielding two blades.

“Die!” Although the White Fog Ape remained illusory, there were some vague signs of lightning in its eyes..

Si la—

It immediately reached Xue Ying with a move that left behind traces of lightning. Its two fog blades were terrifying.

The White Fog Ape condensing and then slashing its blades had both happened in the blink of an eye.

Dang!

Xue Ying was extremely vigilant as his conditional reflex triggered him to simply stab out with his spear. The movement of the spear was followed by traces of black space threads! It couldn’t tear space itself open, though, as it had been sealed shut. As the spear smashed against the white blades, a sound of metal clashing resounded outwards. Despite having to to take a step back due to the great force, Xue Ying continued stabbing out with his spear.

Shua shua shua!

In a moment, hundreds if not thousands traces caused by black space threads had appeared. The Stellar Fire Cloud Spear turned into a dense shadow as Xue Ying maniacally struck out against the White Fog Ape!

Faster, faster, faster! He increased his speed to his maximum.

Xue Ying did not have the time to think. He was depending entirely on his instincts to stab out with his spear. The True Meaning of Extreme Piercing had, by nature, a truly frightening spear, a trait which was being displayed to its fullest at that very moment.

He stabbed even while retreating, he stabbed when he advanced, he stabbed when turning.

Lines after lines of black threads formed… what seemed like an inescapable net!

Dang dang dang! The sound of weapons clashing resounded at extremely close intervals of time. The White Fog Ape was maniacally slashing out with its double blades as well. The blades of his condensed weapons had the feeling of emptiness granted by the white fog while also enhanced with the element of lightning. Its speed was similarly frightening.

The two sides competed on speed!

Defending against the Extreme Piercing once was nothing much. But for it to defend against thousands of attacks with Extreme Piercing was a different matter altogether.

It actually defended from it. Xue Ying was startled. Although this White Fog Ape is stronger than me, my True Meaning of Extreme Piercing is more profound than his, yet it still managed to directly block my attack. On top of that, it is really fast, and its blade techniques have lightning and fog incorporated into them. By comparison, the Black Dragon is big and powerful, but its fighting techniques are too crude.

Hu.

Suddenly, the White Fog Ape took a step back and stopped while its lightning covered eyes continued staring at Xue Ying. “Human Transcendent, the True Meaning incorporated in your spear techniques is truly strange. Its penetrative force is continuously digging into my blades, greatly reducing the speed of my techniques! Without that, I would have long since defeated you.”

Xue Ying was shocked on the inside.

So its speed was even faster than this? That’s right. Even though it could defend against his Extreme Piercing, the power inherent power of the Extreme Piercing could still affect some of its blade techniques.
