Chapter 187: Nothing Remarkable About Level Seven (2/2)
The young girl Junior Leopard had knocked out and thrown aside had regained consciousness. Watching the scene unfolding before her, her expression froze with shock and she could help screaming.
”Don't worry, my lady!” The old woman called Dragon Granny tried to comfort her. She took three steps backward and struck the ground heavily with her Dragon Head Crutch. Something odd happened. A greenish translucent light visible to the naked eye had completely enveloped her, protecting her. The Fire Dragons slammed into the light cover but were rebounded far away, unable to break through.
Dragon Granny's expression turned smug as she looked at the golden fire balls meant for her and the Fire Dragons flying around her barrier. ”It's true I have underestimated your capability, but do you really think you can win me with merely Blaze Technique of the Heavenly Nine Dragon?”
”Then just watch and see!” Junior Leopard sneered, suddenly running at the old woman.
Hong! Hong! Hong! The six fire balls slammed into her light cover one after another emitting ear-deafening humming sounds.
”Young lad, stop dreaming! My Green Spiritual Glass Cover is… What?!”
Before she could finish her cocky words, she felt a blast of scorching airflow enter the Green Spiritual Glass Cover and aim at her Dragon Head Crutch. She raised her head and became shocked by what she saw. The six fire balls continued burning the light cover even when they could not break through it in a clean hit. Under the golden flame, the light cover began to melt. Dragon Granny began to panic. She had never seen such an uncanny thing happen since she started practicing the secret skill of Green Spiritual Glass Cover. She had never heard such a thing could happen. It was unexpected that there was a flame capable of melting the harder-than-iron light cover formed by Internal Qi through the secret skill.
”Green Spiritual Glass Cover? So what if you know how to use a secret skill?” Junior Leopard laughed coldly. He had long approached the light cover, punching through it without much thought.
Junior Leopard's fist was tough, plus he was fueled by his Qi Power and fist intent. It took him only three punches or so before the light cover that was Dragon Granny's pride began cracking.
”Impossible...!” Dragon Granny made a strangled cry as if she had seen the most unbelievable thing in the world.
Universal Three-chop Sword and Green Spiritual Glass Cover were two of the three secret techniques of the Meng Family in Ningzhou. They formed the basis for the Meng Family's confidence for surviving in Jianghu. After thousands of years, these techniques earned prestige for the family.
The Green Spiritual Glass Cover was recognized as one of the strongest defense secret skills in the world.
It was said that even an expert with cultivation below Level Seven and no knowledge of protective Qi could have a defensive power equivalent to Gang Qi when using this skill. Those who have already practiced Gang Qi, on the other hand, would have even more terrifying defensive power when using it.
Dragon Granny had Level Seven cultivation and her Internal Qi was essentially unique and far stronger than those with cultivation beneath her despite her lack of success with Gang Qi. The defensive power of the Green Spiritual Glass Cover she demonstrated with her Internal Qi ought to be greater than the Protective Gang Qi by a new expert. But she did not expect the secret skill would be cracked so easily by the young lad in front of her. Everything happened too easily and inexplicably.
What she did not know was the six fire balls Junior Leopard hurled at her earlier were incidentally transformed by the Lion, which was created when the Internal Qi of the Blaze Technique of the Heavenly Nine Dragon was refined to the extreme.
Besides, Junior Leopard's Internal Qi was not just any ordinary flame. It contained the power from Mysterious Fire of the Dragon Chimera. As great as the Green Spiritual Glass Cover was, it was merely molded through ordinary Internal Qi. It obviously could not endure the power of a real dragon!
Moreover, Junior Leopard had a wickedly powerful fist. The Green Spiritual Glass Cover that was famous throughout the martial arts world finally cracked under the dual pressure.
A series of clear and melodious chimes rang in everyone's ears as if pearls were falling down on a plate. Dragon Granny leaned on her crutch with a pale face and took a step back. The cyan light cover crashed to the ground like broken glass and, with the loss of her Internal Qi, soon disappeared like cyan smoke.
”You...!”
Dragon Granny's morale was now completely gone. Her once neat hair hung down like messy curtains. With her pale, wrinkled face combined with her loose hair made her look quite like a ghost. She trembled in the wind with her walking stick, making her look desolate. Nobody could see the spirit of a Level Seven expert on her.
The newly-constructed road was also ruined by their battle. Deep traces made by saber were scattered all over the ground. Potholes caused by the Internal Qi vibration were everywhere. Junior Leopard's heated Internal Qi had melted the stones and mud. There was no trace of a new road remaining.
Junior Leopard sneered and stepped toward Dragon Granny.
”Level Seven? Haha! There is really nothing remarkable about it!”
