Chapter 100 - 【Iron Vine Barrier Formation】 (1/2)

In mid-air, the eight hall masters were stunned as the scene of Zhong Yue defeating the young Qi Practitioner in a flash reflected in their eyes. They thought, Such a strong physique!

Feng Shouzhu laughed and said, "See? I was trying to protect the Spirit Nurturing level little ones by restricting them. If that kid were to use his full strength just now, the Rebirth level boy would have already been a corpse, let alone those little ones of the Spirit Nurturing level. Fortunately, he did not use his full strength or he would have burst the young Qi Practitioner's body easily just with his physical strength."

"What!?"

The eight hall masters' face changed and the Hall of Sword Qi hall master quickly asked, "Elder Feng, do you mean to say that he is a Martial Master?"

The other hall masters nodded together as they too had the same question. Martial Masters had an overwhelming superiority to Qi Practitioners in terms of body physique and their strengths were incredibly ruthless which made them as fierce as ferocious beasts in close quarter combats.

Therefore, only Martial Masters could do something so raw barbaric like what Zhong Yue did to the young Qi Practitioner just now; defeating and inflicting such injuries to the young Qi Practitioner with just one punch!

Feng Shouzhu shook his head and said, "This kid over there is not a Martial Master. Martial Masters have every single inch of their bodies being clogged due to their strong body physique, essentially being robbed of the ability to perform soul manipulation on the soul weapons or alter their Primordial Spirit. You eight little brats have been staying in the Swords Gate for so long that you lack experience and failed to recognize all of these! If you encountered anyone strong outside, you would definitely be defeated!"

The eight hall masters immediately showed an obedient attitude but they did not take in any of Feng Shouzhu's words at all. They then thought, Martial Masters are after all an unorthodox path, their future is limited by their incapability to liberate their soul from the body and fighting with their Primordial Spirit. There are no merits to being a Martial Master at all, how are they worth all the fuss? All we have to do is just be careful of their sudden attacks and avoid the close quarter battle with them and we will be able to kill them easily. Why is Elder Feng exaggerating their abilities?

Feng Shouzhu looked at them and he lamented in his heart, Things have been going too smooth for these guys, causing them to be very supercilious. They are blinded in their own hubris and unable to see the fortes of the Martial Masters. This would really be the cause of their downfall sooner or later.

On the Lingzhi Stage, Huang Luoshi walked out and coldly said sarcastically, " Winning by launching a sneak attack? Don't you think that is a dirty trick, Junior Martial Brother Zhong. Let me consult you for some moves!"

Zhong Yue on the other hand, moved again with ghostly speed, like a dragon ascending out from the abyss or a hungry tiger heading down to the mountain. He charged straight towards Huang Luoshi while saying, "Who is going to give you time to prepare in a real battle?"

However, Zhong Yue's surprise attack did not work well this time as Huang Luoshi was already fully aware of his attacks when she saw the tragic fate that befell the young Qi Practitioner. Therefore, as soon as she walked forward just now, she had already formed layers of shields around her to eliminate every chance for Zhong Yue to launch his sneak attack.

To her surprise, Zhong Yue still got dangerously close to her before her shields were formed completely. In her vision, she saw twenty to thirty-meter long Jiao Dragons dancing around the young man's body as he moved, roaring and charging at her together fiercely!

She quickly backed off and left behind huge vines on the path she retreated to. These vines grew bigger and thicker in seconds, attempting to increase the distance between herself and Zhong Yue.

At the same time, even more layers of shields formed around her, preparing to form into a defensive array formation at any time.

"So fast!"

Huang Luoshi shouted out in shock and as a loud boom noise was heard, Zhong Yue's speed suddenly broke through the sound barrier. He moved in the air and he got close to her in an instant before pushing his palms towards her. As he pushed his palms forwards, he formed a wall of compressed air in front of him, resulting in a vacuum being created behind it.

With barely any time for her to respond with any array carvings, Huang Luoshi strived to visualize a shield wall in front of her. At the same time, she hopped onto the vines she summoned and backed off quickly while countless shields flew up and knocked straight towards Zhong Yue's palms.

Boom boom boom——

Much to Huang Luoshi's dismay, the shields exploded before even coming into contact with Zhong Yue's palms. The blastwave created from the resultant explosion blew her hair up high. The raging gales birthed from the shockwave was like a whirlwind of tiny knives that incessantly sliced towards her face; she even found her neck to be littered with tiny cuts.!

"Soul Liberty!"

Left with no other options, Huang Luoshi forcefully used the Soul Liberty and a huge treant Primordial Spirit descended from the sky, creating an earth shaking vibration as it landed on the ground. This treant Primordial Spirit had a tree crown on top of its head, huge branches and full of leaves, emitting an intimidating aura even though it was just a treant Primordial Spirit!

Huo Luoshi then had all her psyche surged towards the treant Primordial Spirit, controlling the treant Primordial Spirit to raise up its arms and pushed towards Zhong Yue's palms!

From the perspectives of the upwards of one thousand eight hundred Qi Practitioners who were spectating the duo in the midst of their battle, Zhong Yue appeared to be like just a tiny baby in front of the huge treant Primordial Spirit. However, the aura he was emitting instilled a profound terror far exceeding that of the treant Primordial Spirit – as if he himself were a demonic god!

A roaring clap resounded as their palms met with each other and the shockwaves created and emitted omnidirectionally was akin to a clash of giants!

Huang Luoshi's body shook as both her psyche and Primordial Spirit was experiencing an unprecedented pressure beyond imagination while her clothes were lacerated into pieces by the blast wave created. In the meantime, heavy footsteps could be heard as the huge treant Primordial Spirit was forcefully pushed behind by Zhong Yue. The speed of it getting pushed backward accelerated and the stage shook violently with every reluctant stomp of its foot!

Dong——

Along with Huang Luoshi, her treant Primordial Spirit knocked onto the walls of the hall strongly. With their backs sticking onto the walls as a support, they finally managed to regain their balance and as she inhaled a breath seeking to retaliate, Zhong Yue stomped in midair and raised his palms again. At that moment, following a huge noise, the walls of the hall toppled and the treant Primordial Spirit fell into the hall along with Huang Luoshi and even more noises after that.

Huang Luoshi's exclamation could be heard from the hall. Her injuries were not heavy but her already shredded clothes completely turned into dust, extinguishing every bit of her intention to fight against Zhong Yue anymore.

On the other hand, as Zhong Yue descended onto the ground, he suddenly felt something and he quickly dodged to the side. As soon as he started moving quickly to the side, countless huge stakes breached through the ground, knocking towards him along with huge noises!
