Chapter 148 - 148 Facing death (1/2)

Both Shun Long and Cui Guoliang were sent flying backwards from the impact of their collision.

Shun Long felt a sharp pain in his hand, as blood had already covered his entire fist.

This was the first time that Shun Long had bled after fighting someone, ever since he had started his body cultivation.

Turning his head to look at Cui Guoliang, he saw him staring at his own fist in disbelief.

A crack had appeared on his metal-like fist, as his blood was slowly dripping on the floor of the hall.

Looking at Shun Long, Cui Guoliang smiled, as he actually took the initiative to attack this time.

The crack in his left hand had quickly reformed itself, while a large halberd made of water had appeared in his hands.

Raising the 2m(6.6ft) long halberd in the air, the golden-haired Dao King swung it down aiming at Shun Long's head.

Shun Long's golden eyes flashed, as he clearly saw the trajectory of the halberd, and stepped to the side, easily dodging the attack.

Cui Guoliang smirked as he saw this, while the bright-blue halberd's attack met with the floor.

BOOOM

It was almost as if a powerful earthquake had just shaken the entire hall, as Shun Long's feet lost their contact with the ground.

Cui Guoliang's eyes flashed as he immediately swept the halberd sideways, towards the airborne Shun Long.

Seeing that he couldn't avoid the halberd, Shun Long crossed both of his arms in an X-shape in front of his chest as he attempted to block Cui Guoliang's strike.

The moment that the ice-blue halberd connected with his arms, Shun Long felt an overpowering force that sent him flying backwards, as his back finally crashed on the wall behind him.

Shun Long felt pain coursing all over his body, while even the ribs on his left side were actually fractured.

Withstanding the pain, he slowly stood up as he once again faced the golden-haired young man opposite to him.

Cui Guoliang was stunned when he saw Shun Long standing up.

He was certain, that his last strike was powerful enough, to even kill some peak rank 3 Heaven grade cultivators.

And yet Shun Long could somehow still stand up after taking a hit by his halberd head-on.

Laughing, he then said

''Brat! Not bad! You can actually still stand after taking a direct hit from my water halberd. Let's see how many more hits you can take then.

Holding his halberd with his right hand, Cui Guoliang kicked the ground as he rushed at Shun Long.

Shun Long's golden eyes once again lit up, as he immediately understood what Cui Guoliang wanted to do.

Once again, swinging his halberd down the same way as before, Cui Guoliang seemed as if he was going to hit the ground next to Shun Long once again.

Shun Long quickly dodged to the side, making the golden-haired Dao King smirk, as he mumbled to himself

''Really a newbie''

Just as the halberd was about to hit the ground, Cui Guoliang changed its trajectory, as he sent a strike towards Shun Long's right ribs.

However, Shun Long smiled as he took advantage of the moment that the halberd changed its trajectory, to immediately move behind Cui Guoliang.

Clenching his right hand, Shun Long sent a powerful punch at Cui Guoliang's ribs.

Cui Guoliang's eyes widened as he saw this, but since he didn't have enough time to dodge, he could only cover his left ribs with the Dao of Metal as he took Shun Long's blow directly.

Crackk!!
