Chapter 132 - Full Strength (2/2)
Zhong Yue extended the wings behind him, the Golden Crow wings were quick, allowing him to circumnavigate the giant treant to search for the flaw in King Teng's form. The giant treant was too large, two hundred feet would be equivalent to over twenty floors high; naturally, his movements were not agile and nimble. He spread all eight arms out, slashing and punching the air incessantly but never once being able to land a strike on Zhong Yue. Meanwhile, Zhong Yue, in the other hand, was continuously thrusting sword and saber rays into the giant treant.
On the giant treant, the countless 'Little King Teng's quivered their arms and formed countless Eight Extreme Slaughtering Arrays that assaulted Zhong Yue. King Teng guffawed and said, "Brother Long Yue, do you want to see my full strength?"
Hu hu hu——
All the little treants on his body were suddenly launched into the air, their legs were connected with the vines to the giant treant. The vines waved and lashed in mid-air, lifting the 'Little King Teng's in the air and battering onto Zhong Yue.
Zheng zheng zheng zheng!
The sounds of metal clanking ringed out, the vines danced in the air, and the 'Little King Teng's crisscrossed each other, casting the Eight Extreme Slaughtering Arrays towards Zhong Yue. They would leave after the first encounter with him, but the sheer number of Little Kind Tengs resulted in Zhong Yue relentlessly getting slashed at an incredibly high rate.
The King Tengs on the vines were numerous, the scene would tingle the scalp to whoever was watching. They were waiting in line to assault Zhong Yue, they attacked from all directions and pushed Zhong Yue to the end of his wit.
King Teng's attacks were getting more and more strange and erratic. After all the improvements he had, Zhong Yue was confident that he would not be powerless against the Wu Xing Wheel experts, and yet, he found himself in a serious predicament in this fight against King Teng!
On the pontoon, Yu Xuanji and Hu Qimei were still crippled from the heavy wounds. The two Qi Practitioners could hear the sounds of explosion blasting violently in the monster god Ming King palace. Their heart thumped in shock and they gazed at each other quietly.
"Brother Long Yue is battling with King Teng, I wonder how the is the situation now…."
All of a sudden, their sights fell onto the palace from far away, one after another, water bucket thick green vines shuttled out from the palace door, along with dreadful and ferocious-looking slithering Jiao Dragons Chi chi chi— the vines shot out from the palace door and rooted themselves into the mountain rocks outside of the palace, even the grounds were cracked opened by their immense strength.
"King Teng, what a strong guy, just exactly how long and how big is this guy's body…."
Hu Qimei mumbled, "Extending his roots outside of the palace, is he placing down an array formation?"
More and more vines shuttled out of the palace and rooted themselves into the mountain rocks, forming a circle that surrounded the palace like a cage locking the palace in.
While on the thick vines, strange and peculiar totem carvings started to emerge out, glittering from time to time,
"He is going to seal the monster god Ming King's palace and trap Brother Long Yue in it, leaving him nowhere to run."
Yu Xuanji's face turned solemn, "Will Brother Long Yue be of his match? Qimei, how much of your strength are you able to use now? Can you still play the lute?"
Hu Qimei shook her head, her face was as pale as the winter snow, "About ten to twenty percent, even if I play the lute and attack with the invisible Sword Qi, I still wouldn't be able to break off the vines. The exertion would only end up costing me my life."
Yu Xuanji forcibly mustered his strength and suddenly, his face turned crimson red and a clump of blood shot out of his mouth. He then laid back in despair, "I'm also unable to do anything. Darn it, if only I'd attained the Ming King's divine eye, I wouldn't be so heavily injured by the totem carvings on the pontoon…."
"For now, we can only rely on Brother Long Yue…." Hu Qimei babbled lowly.
Yu Xuanji's eyebrows fluctuated and he mumbled along, "We can only rely on him … Damn, where is this King Teng's weak point?"
All of a sudden, the monster god Ming King's palace crumbled and turned into a landscape of ruin. A beam of fire blasted through the clouds, it was Zhong Yue streaking out of the palace with his wings spread out majestically. Behind him were the countless vines, piercing through the palace, trying to strangle him and bring him down to earth. At the end of the vines were the 'Little King Teng's, maintaining the Eight ExtremeWeapons that formed into the Eight Extreme Slaughtering Arrays. The array formations hurtled towards Zhong Yue in mid-air!
Yu Xuanji and Hu Qimei stared blankly at the scenery —Peng peng peng— more and more King Tengs flew out from the palace at Zhong Yue. In the blink of an eye, there were already over a hundred King Tengs hovering in the air, forming into over a hundred Eight Extreme Slaughtering Arrays!
"How do you even fight this?" Hu Qimei mumbled in despair and hopelessness.
Before the sound of her voice faded away, the roof of the palace was crushed open as even thicker and larger vines shuttled out to suddenly converge into a two hundred feet giant treant. Standing on top of the palace, was King Teng swinging his arms furiously over at Zhong Yue.
Even Yu Xuanji could not help but show signs of desperation, Zhong Yue was known for his exceptional agility – his flying speed was virtually unmatched among those of his class but as of now, the perimeter of the palace was sealed by King Teng's array formation, essentially sealing away the only advantage that Zhong Yue had over King Teng. In addition to the numerous little King Tengs and the giant King Teng, he could not even see the slightest glimpse of hope for Zhong Yue's victory!
His space was confined and he was restricted, there were countless obstacles one must overcome when battling against a monstrous creature like King Teng.
Clearly, Zhong Yue realized the limited space he had to maneuver. All of a sudden, he plummeted down back into the palace and the vines and giant treant followed him in tow back to the palace.
"This is good, it feels so good! Long Yue, you are the first Qi Practitioner to be able to persevere for so long and still survive under my attacks!" King Teng laughed maniacally.
Hu Qimei and Yu Xuanji's face blanched with a ghostly white, they looked at each other and saw the despair in each other's eyes.
King Teng was too strong, so strong to the point that Zhong Yue's situation seemed inexorably hopeless.
"The Boundless Great Sun!"
In the monster god Ming King palace, the blazing sun behind Zhong Yue suddenly turned into a flaming conflagration. The flame blasted out like magma, setting the whole palace alight in a sea of fire. The palace vigorously burned and the temperature inched upwards rapidly until it felt as if the air itself would be set alight. Any vestige of moisture that lingered in the air before was completely wiped away in an instant!
One after another, the King Tengs dashed through the flames directly at him, they said in an eerie unison, "It's useless, there was once a Wu Xing Wheel Qi Practitioner that tried to burn me with the Fire Wheel of the Wu Xing Wheel, his efforts bore no fruit and I was unscathed. Not to mention that your attainments in the art of fire were not even as strong as his!"
"It's different, my fire that is...."
All of a sudden, the relaxed Zhong Yue said gently, "My fire is the fire of the sun, and I didn't cast the fire, I only instigated it. In actuality, its source is the inside of your own body itself. Now, you may die."
