109: Chapter 109 The Strange Black Scales

The young girl's figure dodged and moved through countless wooden strips and vines.

Every now and then, she threw a few punches, shattering the unavoidable vines and wooden strips into a sky full of green spiritual power light spots.

But there were simply too many vines and wooden strips; she couldn't finish them off just by punching them one by one.

Soon, the girl's maneuvering space was completely compressed by these green vines, and she was eventually trapped inside a green hemisphere.

"Li Fire!"

"Dui Metal!"

Two voices rang out from two different directions around her.

In the next moment, the entire hemisphere made of vines suddenly began to burn violently.

At the same time, Yun Lan, who had already finished charging his power on the side, leaped high into the air, holding a massive golden long blade formed from spiritual power in his hands.

With his bulging muscles and carrying an immense aura, he slashed down fiercely toward the burning green hemisphere.

The power was so great that even before it reached the green hemisphere, the audience felt an unprecedentedly powerful pressure.

For the first time, the surface of the arena, made of an unknown alloy, developed fine cracks due to the attack.

From the audience's perspective, the space of the arena seemed as if it were about to be torn apart by this strike.

"Whoosh!"

A blue transparent dome suddenly rose from all sides of the arena. This was a protective shield set up to protect the audience from the powerful aftershocks of the battle, usually used for matches between the fourth and fifth ranks.

Who would have thought that as third-rankers, they could actually unleash an attack that made those at the fourth or fifth rank feel threatened!

The surrounding audience was completely dumbfounded.

One must know that cultivation is divided into ten ranks. Setting aside the legendary tenth rank for now, every three ranks represent a massive hurdle.

Just look at the Yao Race's own rank names: the first to third ranks are Lesser Yao, while the fourth to sixth ranks are Great Yao. Although there is only one rank between the third and fourth ranks, it is like the difference between heaven and earth.

The life levels of these two stages are different and simply cannot be compared.

But now... Xiao Meng and Yun Lan on the stage had actually used a smooth combination to unleash an attack that surpassed their own life level, which was completely inconceivable.

Genius!

These two words appeared in the hearts of almost all the onlookers at the same time.

Almost as the protective shield rose, the various watching Yao also broke into a cold sweat for the Saintess whom they had originally thought would win easily.

The tale of Xing Yaoyan fighting a hundred Yao alone had long been circulating among the various Yao.

However, for a fourth-rank Yao, taking on one or two hundred third-rank Yao would be no problem and an easy win; this was the absolute crushing force of so-called hard power.

Can the Saintess hold on...

"Boom!"

The attack landed completely. Although those outside couldn't feel the intensity of the energy inside, they could see that the protective shield around the arena was actually trembling violently!

"This is no longer a normal fourth-rank attack; it has even touched the threshold of the fifth rank!"

Ying Linglong's voice trembled slightly.

Previously, the teacher her father Ying Feng sent to instruct her had shown her the power of the fourth and fifth ranks, using a mini version of this arena's protective shield as a reference.

She knew clearly how much power was required to make this thing vibrate so violently.

"It's okay... Linglong, you have to remember, our Sister Yan has only been using the Tushan Fox Demon's Demonic Power just now. She hasn't even used her own golden Demonic Power yet. She should be able to hold on, right..."

Leng Xiaoyue swallowed hard. To be honest, he wasn't sure if their Sister Yan could withstand it either. In any case, if he and Ying Linglong were the ones being attacked, they would definitely be starting with heavy injuries, and might even be left with hidden ailments after it was over.

It seemed the humans had put in real effort; they had truly kicked a steel plate this time...

"Boom! Boom..."

The violent explosions continued, but the resulting fluctuations were gradually weakening.

Over by Qian Mo, Yun Lan had already returned to his pre-enhancement appearance. He was sitting on the ground with both hands supporting himself, looking completely ungraceful. The dice above his head was also gradually becoming transparent, and he looked exhausted.

Beside him, Xiao Meng was also kneeling on one knee, panting heavily.

"Ha... ha... Little Bai, were we too ruthless... Could that strike have directly killed that Yao Race sister?"

Xiao Meng asked with some concern.

"Hey... it's fine. Tushan Fox Demons, especially those who Cultivate the red Demonic Power of the 'Dao of Strength'... their physical fitness is very strong."

"Whew... and the healing ability of this red Demonic Power is also exceptionally outstanding. At most, she'll lose her ability to move. To truly be fatal, we'd have to hit her again..."

Hu Wang simply lay flat on the ground, explaining considerately to his kind master while panting heavily.

Suddenly, Hu Wang seemed to sense something and gave a bitter smile, feeling somewhat helpless yet relieved.

"She really is a monster..."

The dust gradually cleared, revealing a beautiful figure emitting a faint golden light.

The girl was seen with one hand held like a claw in front of her, and the other hand clutching the brim of her baseball cap, panting slightly.

The mask on her face was torn in half, revealing half of her bewitchingly beautiful face.

One sleeve of the girl's clothes had been completely shredded, revealing a fair arm with fine, small scars. Her casual jeans had also become "distressed," looking every bit the part of a battle-damaged warrior.

"Really... I was almost killed by you guys..."

The girl reached out to wipe the blood from the corner of her mouth, a wicked smile appearing on her face.

She really hadn't expected her old acquaintances to have become so strong now.

If she hadn't used her bug-like "Mist Form" to evade the main impact of the explosion, combined with the buffer provided by her Star Swallowing Art, she wouldn't have been able to withstand it with such minimal cost.

"It seems I was right to insist on keeping the two Superpower Imprints of 'Mist Form' and 'Swap'; they really are crucial at critical moments!"

After a small moment of inner pride, she walked forward with steps that were a bit floaty but still relatively steady.

"Now, only you are left, Qian Mo. Looking at you, you probably can't pull off that beautiful combo your teammates just did. You should just surrender..."

Before she could finish, the boy who had been standing still moved.

Sigh... you just have to learn the hard way...

No matter how exquisite his movement techniques were, under her Malice Perception, his actions were completely exposed in three hundred and sixty degrees.

Xing Yaoyan punched out rapidly, the golden and red Demonic Power on her fist reflecting each other as she struck fiercely toward the position indicated by the Line of Flaw.

The place where the boy would appear next was definitely there.

Sure enough, the boy's figure suddenly appeared beneath her fist.

"It seems this time, I win!"

Xing Yaoyan showed a look of joy.

But in the next instant, alarm bells rang out in her mind for no reason.

"Wait! Why didn't he use a Superpower? Or is it..."

Sensing something, the girl looked up and saw a Black Balance scale hanging over her head at some unknown point.

Because it didn't emit any aura at all, she hadn't noticed it.
