C487 One against eight (1/2)
With Fang Yang's vigilance, he simply could not detect anything at all! If Chen Tao didn't break the illusion formation by chance, by the time he got a few meters closer, the consequences would be unimaginable!
The sudden destruction of the formation was outside of Chen Tao's expectations. His body froze, his face revealed an expression of disbelief, and he blurted out: ”How did you do that? How could you be so fast? ”
Fang Yang would naturally not tell him the truth. ”Is it that difficult? It's not like this is my first time breaking through your illusion array, so I already have some experience with it. ”
Although he felt that something was off, Chen Tao actually couldn't refute him! The illusion formation that he was so proud of had indeed been broken by Fang Yang twice in a row.
No matter how big the problem Fang Yang's words were, when facts were placed in front of him, bragging was built on absolute strength!
Chen Tao said with a gloomy face: ”Some people said that luck is also a type of strength, I didn't quite believe it before. However, after meeting you, I've discovered that luck is much more important than strength. ”
”Hehe, I didn't expect that after so many days, your eloquence would grow.” Fang Yang tilted his head and looked at Chen Tao:
”No matter if it's luck or strength, as long as it's successful, it's fine. I wonder what kind of surprise you will bring me this time? ”
Fang Yang spoke while moving his limbs. He knew that he could only rely on his own strength to deal with his only mortal enemy.
”The surprise I give you is that this place will become your grave!” After Chen Tao finished speaking, he rushed towards Fang Yang.
”Good job!” Fang Yang could feel a strong aura being emitted from Chen Tao's body, and every cell was inexplicably excited. Instead of retreating, he advanced while holding onto the Dragon-scale Sword, fiercely rushing towards Chen Tao.
”Rumble …”
The two swords clashed violently in the air, causing Chen Tao to retreat one step, and he had to retreat three steps before he managed to stand firm on his feet.
On the surface, it looked like Fang Yang was slightly weaker, but he had used all of his strength and had enough speed. In addition to the injuries on Fang Yang's body, it was basically a tie.
Chen Tao was evidently very dissatisfied with this outcome as well. ”Hmph, I didn't expect you to be such a good person, but everything is about to come to an end.
With that said, he formed a complicated hand seal with Chen Tao's hand and struck outwards. Immediately, seven puppets emerged from the stone walls surrounding Fang Yang. As if seven bolts of black lightning combined with Chen Tao, they fiercely attacked Fang Yang once again!
”Damn!” Do you have to be so ruthless! ” In a one on one battle, Fang Yang was not at a disadvantage against Chen Tao. But now, he was wounded and his strength was greatly reduced.
If he wanted to persist for a while, the best way was to lean against the stone wall. This way, he would be able to reduce the amount of attacks he would receive, but it would also cut off his own escape route.
But one had to know that Chen Tao's puppets could actually hide within the stone walls! If another puppet were to attack from behind, wouldn't he be doomed?
Fang Yang did not dare to take the risk. Chen Tao's strength was about the same as his, both were at the perfection-stage of the Profound Rank. He was only a step away from entering the world at the next higher level.
The only reason why Chen Tao would follow Fang Yang like a ghost was not only because he was not friendly with others. Having an evenly matched opponent was absolutely the best way to break through.
The situation was critical, Fang Yang knew that if he hesitated any longer, he might really lose his life here. He made a prompt decision, channeled all of his Power of Geomancy into his body, and shouted loudly, ”Open for me!”
Seemingly with some sort of addition to the jade pit, Fang Yang felt that this time, the speed at which he was activating the Power of Geomancy was at least twice as fast as before.
Just when Chen Tao thought that he had succeeded, with a smile of victory on his face, Fang Yang's body suddenly exploded forth with an aura that made his heart palpitate.
Due to his instinctive reaction to danger, in a situation where Chen Tao was unsure of what was happening, he almost subconsciously withdrew and retreated.
Even though Chen Tao's speed was already fast enough, the dragon scale in Fang Yang's hands still left a long wound on his left leg.
