The soul of Half-step Great Power Zhao Zhao was affected by the Thunder Sound unleashed by the ’Thunder Sound Bell’. In itself this wouldn’t be too serious, but the problem was that he wasn’t fighting Li Yuanba, he was fighting the Duke of Thunder.
The Thunder Sound unleashed by Li Yuanba was only a support. As long as it slowed his reaction speed even the slightest bit, it was already a trendous victory.
And that was exactly what happened. After Half-step Great Power Zhao Zhao was affected, his reaction speed slowed. Originally it was the Duke of Thunder endlessly chasing him, and because they were within his Grotto Heaven, he had never been caught.
Now things were different. With his reactions slower, the Duke of Thunder hurled lightning while using Space Movent to pursue him, and bit by bit his reactions could no longer keep up with the Duke of Thunder’s speed.
With a loud "boom", Half-step Great Power Zhao Zhao’s body was sent flying and smashed heavily against the wall of the Grotto Heaven.
This was the first ti in this battle that he had suffered such a severe blow.
Just now the Duke of Thunder had closed in. This ti, in order to attack even faster, he didn’t use the ten-finger strike during Space Movent. Instead, at the instant he appeared, he drove his fist into the body of Half-step Great Power Zhao Zhao.
Even with the body of a Half-step Great Power, Half-step Great Power Zhao Zhao could not withstand a close-range punch from the Duke of Thunder; he was blasted away with a single strike.
It was that punch that jolted Half-step Great Power Zhao Zhao’s mind sowhat clear. His body rebounded uncontrollably from the wall of the Grotto Heaven, and just as the Duke of Thunder used Space Movent to appear at his side to attack again, his figure vanished from where he’d been.
He sensed the condition of his physical body. That punch had injured him. The injury wasn’t extrely serious, but in a battle against an opponent of the Duke of Thunder’s level, any injury would have a huge impact.
Moreover, the brief clarity in his mind brought by the Duke of Thunder’s strike was once again drowned under the influence of the Thunder Sound.
He knew very clearly that if this went on, if he took a few more hits from the Duke of Thunder, he would fall within his own Grotto Heaven.
Taking advantage of that brief clarity, he thought of a way to resolve the situation: he had to kill Li Yuanba.
But in this situation, if he wanted to find an opening to attack Li Yuanba, he would have to bear the Duke of Thunder’s attacks. The Duke of Thunder’s assault was far too pressing.
He clenched his teeth and waved his hand toward Li Yuanba’s direction.
It was precisely this motion that caused his evasive speed to slow for just an instant, and he was struck in the body once more by the Duke of Thunder.
This ti, Half-step Great Power Zhao Zhao spat fresh blood from his mouth; this blow had worsened his injuries.
He still felt it was worth it, because by Li Yuanba’s side, flas had already surged over to engulf him.
Li Yuanba discovered that the flas around him suddenly rose and lunged toward him, but he was unable to evade, because the flas ca at him from all directions.
From the flas he could clearly feel the blessing of a Half-step Great Power’s Fla Rules, and coupled with the fact that the flas here were already top-tier, their power was enough to refine any Peak Great Cultivator.
Fortunately, he had the ’Storm Eye’. The Vortex Shield ford by the ’Storm Eye’ firmly wrapped around him.
The flas of a Half-step Great Power, and moreover an attack casually thrown out, not a deliberate strike from Half-step Great Power Zhao Zhao, were blocked by the Vortex Shield of the ’Storm Eye’.
The wind-attribute Rules within the ’Storm Eye’ were at the level of a Great Power. If Half-step Great Power Zhao Zhao had truly gone all out against Li Yuanba, the Vortex Shield of the ’Storm Eye’ likely wouldn’t have been able to hold.
But under the Duke of Thunder’s assault, the ti Half-step Great Power Zhao Zhao had to unleash an attack was extrely short.
He had originally believed that the attack he sent out would be enough to annihilate a Peak Great Cultivator like Li Yuanba.
He had full confidence in that. Although he also knew about the ’Storm Eye’, aside from a very few Great Cultivators of the Feiyu Sect, other Cultivators had no idea of the true might of the ’Storm Eye’.
Half-step Great Power Zhao Zhao had underestimated the defense manifested by the ’Storm Eye’, allowing his attack to be blocked by the Storm Eye’s Vortex Shield.
At least for a short ti, the Cave Heaven Flas would be unable to do anything to Li Yuanba.
Li Yuanba was badly startled. Even separated by the Vortex Shield, he could clearly sense how terrifying those flas were.
He had Spiritual Fire within his body, and his true body had even grasped ’Nanming Leaving Fire’, but perhaps Li Shiming’s ’Nanming Leaving Fire’ was too low-level. Compared to a Half-step Great Power like Zhao Zhao, who had played with fire his entire life, the flas of Li Yuanba and Li Shiming were like children playing house.
Right now, the only thing Li Yuanba could do was continuously increase the energy he was pouring into the ’Storm Eye’.
On the other side, the Duke of Thunder also intensified his assault on Half-step Great Power Zhao Zhao, striving to prevent him from ever again having a chance to launch an attack at Li Yuanba.
Half-step Great Power Zhao Zhao no longer had any chance. Under the Duke of Thunder’s pursuit, and with his bodily injuries, he was absolutely certain that if he took one more hit from the Duke of Thunder, his body would be heavily damaged, and he would inevitably fall to the Duke of Thunder.
He struggled to defend against the influence of the Thunder Sound while using Space Movent with all his might, constantly flickering about within the small Grotto Heaven.
The Duke of Thunder’s Space Movent speed was likewise extrely fast. Almost the instant he appeared, the Duke of Thunder would show up beside him in the span of a heartbeat, and then the Duke of Thunder’s attack would fall on the afterimage he left behind as he vanished.
Half-step Great Power Zhao Zhao assessed the situation and realized that his previous decision to attack Li Yuanba had been a mistake.
As for Li Yuanba’s offensive thods, even the ’Thunder Sound Bell’s’ attack rely affected him; when it ca to actually harming him, that was sothing it could not accomplish.
