356 A Truly Simple and Rough Countryman (1/2)
The fight between legendary level individuals was not very common in the Western Continent.
Once one entered the legendary level, it would be the equivalent of entering a new field. From time immemorial, when the barrier of the divine world and mortal world was not so deep, the legendary level has been called as the first step to become a god. And with the chance to become a god, who would be willing to have a life and death fight? Not to mention that a legendary level fight has an area effect that was too wide, just a bit of carelessness could cause the ground to collapse, islands sink, volcanoes erupt, reverse the flow of the river, people to be in terrible situation… Although Western Continent didn't have the heaven calamity, its special cultural tradition, as well as the rule of power, have made the barrier between ordinary people and professions not so deep. Therefore, even if one was a legendary level, one would still have many precious people in the world of mortals, which formed one's fetters.
It has been a very long time for the people of Western Continent to see the full power fight between legendary level individuals. Although there were many fights in the last few hundred years between legendary levels, they were just half-hearted fights, with no one coming up with their real skills. Now, however, whether it was Pope Billy the III or Supreme Tian Yue, no one would hold back anything.
Because holding back would mean death! Although this one on one fight was proposed by Feng Yin based on the spirit of humanity in order to avoid excessive casualties, in essence, it was still a bloody, brutal fight.
The first round of the fight was already such a charged fight.
The first one to make his move was Tian Yue. During their 'staring' contest, Tian Yue realized that, with the backing of Holy City, the Pope's imposing manner was vigorous, meaning that he could not take advantage of anything. Therefore, he simply launched his Monster Knife to seize the upper hand. This knife was comparable to an immortal treasure weapon. Once he launched it, it suddenly swelled millions of times, like a rolling mountain that came from the sky.
Seeing this situation, the Pope's complexion suddenly changed. Because although this knife strike from Tian Yue seemed sluggish and cumbersome, he could not avoid it since Tian Yue's aim was the City of Taobao behind the Pope! This millions-of-times swelled Monster Knife didn't need to be attached with any special magical power, its size and weight alone could destroy a city and extinguish a country. Although the Holy City was protected by spells, it could not withstand such a powerful and heavy knife!
However, as the leader of the church, how could the Pope be that easy to deal with? His complexion changed because he didn't think the opponent would be this despicable, not because he didn't have the means to deal with it.
On the contrary, this kind of powerful and heavy attack was exactly the kind of attack that he wished for. On the strength competition, who could compare with Holy Light Religion who has millions of believers? And the Pope, as the leader of those millions of believers, backed by the Holy City, was confident that he could withstand even if a god descended to earth, not to mention a mere mad dog!
”Evil heretic, repent under the Holy Light!”
When Tian Yue's Monster Knife was near the top of his head, the Pope raised his scepter, which symbolized the supreme authority. Although there was nothing flashy or noisy with his action, the mountain-like Monster Knife was immediately stopped in mid-air, unable to move even for an inch.
However, the Pope's complexion suddenly changed because it was too easy for him to block the knife. With its shape, the real power of the Monster Knife was actually well below what it looked like on the surface. With the power of Supreme Tian Yue, this attack should not be outwardly strong but inwardly weak like this!
The Pope immediately pushed the scepter up and the huge Monster Knife unexpectedly could not withstand it. With a rumble, the knife immediately retreated. However, after the Monster Knife was pushed back, people actually discovered that Supreme Tian Yue had disappeared.
”Did he flee?”
In the Holy City, the priests that gathered near the Holy Cathedral whispered among themselves, and then they tremblingly put their attention back to the first round of fight between the two behemoths. Although both have yet to come up with their real ability, it was still a thrilling scene.
No priests in the Holy City believed that the Pope would lose. However, seeing that huge Monster Knife falling from the sky towards the Holy City, which cast a huge shadow over the Holy City, how could they not be afraid? Therefore… if Tian Yue ran away in light of this, meaning that the fight was over, then that would be the best.
Unfortunately, how could it be that simple? How could a mad dog cultivator who dared to slaughter more than a hundred thousand people in a foreign continent just run away?
After casting out the Monster Knife to divert the enemy's attention, Tian Yue disappeared without a trace. The Pope was not in a hurry to pursue. Instead, he held the scepter and murmured. A moment later, a stunning wave of light spread out in a spherical form, which quickly spread to hundreds of miles away. Wherever the wave of light passed, people felt like they have been seen through from head to toe, there was no secret at all.
The wave of light also swept Wang Lu and his entourage in Taobao City. However, fortunately, they have the Fifth Elder of Spirit Sword Sect. She held her emerald green bamboo sword high and the Pope's wave of light simply bypassed them.
Wang Lu was secretly surprised. Although that light wave was just casually cast by the Pope, his Master's sword move was similarly without power, similarly sent out casually, yet it easily broke off the spell from a Legendary level Pope, this guy...
”Oh, he wants to use the zooming trick? Mad dog is indeed mad dog, no ordinary person can guess his thoughts.”
While Wang Lu was secretly surprised by his Master's Non-Phase Sword, Wang Wu herself put her focus towards the sky and sighed in a soft voice.”
”A zooming trick? Is it Tian Yue?”
Wang Wu pointed towards the sky. ”Look for yourself.”
Wang Lu shifted his focus along the direction where Wang Wu was pointing at. The sky was still separated into dark clouds and dazzling sunshine, like a yin and yang symbol, seemingly trying to take each other's place, fighting a life and death battle. However, except for this, there was nothing special, and it has been like this since the fight started.
”Where's the light? I can't see the light!”
However, at this time, Bai Shixuan looked to the sky and exclaimed.
Feeling strange, Wang Lu asked, ”Little Bai, could it be that you have evolved from Bai Shixuan to Bai Nei Zhang1?”
