Chapter 682: Losing Wasn’t An Option
Mo Kongyuan couldn’t help but wonder why Chu Fengyun was so confident. Was he relying on the set of martial techniques Feng Zitian had used the last time? No way. Those martial techniques weren’t enough to guarantee a win, even though they had a bit more strength than his Great Fists Skills. Chu Fengyun would usually be very proud to announce his advantages, so what kind of trump card was he hiding this time?
“Mo Kongyuan, among the six guardians, the only one that I respect is you. Although you and I do not walk the same path and have different plans, regardless of our personalities or martial prowess, you are clearly much stronger than the others. Today, I will let you be the first to see my true cultivation,” Chu Fengyun declared pompously.
“I’m honored,” Mo Kongyuan replied sarcastically.
“Hahahaha!” Chu Fengyun threw his head back and laughed maniacally as he thrust his palm outwards. Strong True Qi came flooding over like a tornado, swirling up the clouds around them.
In the distance, a ridiculously strong wind swirled to form a void, creating a miniature storm. Mo Kongyuan took a step forward, using a Great Fist Skill with the intent of a storm with thunder. He twirled his fingers, forming a transparent air tunnel.
There was a distant rumbling like muffled thunder, and large rocks started to roll down from a mountain. The earth trembled under the thunderous sounds.
The two of them remained unmoving, but a mass of air rose and twisted around them, making everything around them seem like an illusion.
Was this the attack of a top-notch cultivator? Even though they had seen the two men exchange terrifying blows before, everyone on the battlefield was shocked to see them now.
Even Ling Yichen and Fu Chengyu were stunned. They had asked Mo Kongyuan for ‘pointers’ so many times, but they had never seen him use such cultivation before.
Only now did they realize that his helplessness, anger, and reluctance was all a pretense. Even going out to travel after being ‘forced’ by them was nothing more than a joke. Even with Mo Kongyuan using half of his cultivation, their combined cultivations could not counter even one of his moves.
They also now realized that Mo Kongyuan had suppressed his cultivation to a stage that was close to theirs in order to maximize their potential, helping them to comprehend the artistic conceptions of the martial path.
Seeing Mo Kongyuan’s aged, exhausted face, the two of them were flooded with emotions.
In the time it took to blink, Mo Kongyuan and Chu Fengyun’s figures disappeared and two blurred shadows flew past, sometimes as heavy as mountains, and sometimes as light as clouds.
Within those shadows, True Qi collided vigorously amidst loud rumbling. Huge masses of qi collided and exploded, scattering into millions of odd, flickering lights.
Only Ling Yichen, Fu Chengyu, and a few others could clearly see the two men’s figures. From how things appeared at the moment, the two of them were almost evenly matched, and Mo Kongyuan was not falling behind. The two of them were a little less worried, but also felt very uneasy. Knowing Chu Fengyun’s character, this battle definitely would not be that easy.
Thud! The palms of the two experts collided, emitting a muffled ringing. Chu Fengyun was sent back a couple of steps by Mo Kongyuan’s domineering True Qi.
Mo Kongyuan leapt forward with one palm extended, using another Great Fist Skill. Just now it seemed like he was leading, but only he knew that his severe internal injuries had worsened yet again from the attack just now. If he could not finish Chu Fengyun in one go, he would surely lose if the fight continued.
In this duel, losing wasn’t an option!
