Four....!
Zhang Rongfang’s heart sank.
If it were just one person alone, he might still have the chance to fight with all his might and win, but four....
He’s in trouble.
"Interesting. In the end, the one causing trouble has always been Zhang Ying himself. So, Yue Dewen has always misunderstood his disciple?" Yu Wenji said calmly.
"Where are the people from the Reverse Ti Association? Let them co out." Lin Hansheng stepped forward, his gaze sweeping the surroundings.
Despite soone suppressing the Reverse Ti Association from above, there might still be close guards protecting Zhang Ying nearby.
"Why bother talking? Just capture him!" Having confird no one was around, Yu Wenji, whose n were killed, imdiately tore off his cloak and strode forward.
"To deal with a re junior, and even trouble us four, what a grand face he has."
With a clang, he drew a short-handled battle axe from his back using his right arm.
The surface of the battle axe was full of crack patterns pieced together with fragnts, and the faint brass color made Zhang Rongfang instantly associate it with so material used to make divine statues.
The other three around him had no intention to make a move, just stood by and watched.
If it weren’t for Zhang Rongfang killing Yu Wenji’s subordinate, Yu Wenji wouldn’t have been willing to use his superiority to oppress the weak.
But now, killing his subordinate right in front of him and blocking an attack from Chen Tao’s hidden weapon.... such strength was enough for him to make a move once.
With the crunching sound of footsteps, Yu Wenji’s steps stomped into the snow, leaving deep pits.
Amidst the snowy woodland, his heavy armor was imposing and solemn, coupled with his helt, reaching a height of three ters, making him like an iron tower, standing upright and unshakable.
From a distance, the armor on him was carved with various intricate and curved patterns.
These patterns, at first glance, subtly gave a sense of dizziness and involuntarily made one associate with various terrifying and majestic objects.
Naturally instilling fear into people’s hearts.
Clearly, this armor was no ordinary item.
"Snow Rainbow Pavilion, Yu Wenji." Yu Wenji announced his na in a deep voice.
"Among the ten Fierce Generals, you should be grateful that I am the one who made a move; otherwise, if it were soone else... you would be absolutely dead!"
"Is this the foundation of Snow Rainbow Pavilion?" Zhang Rongfang looked at the armor on the opponent, and the battle axe, then compared with himself, the gap was indeed very obvious.
Because he wore nothing.
"Do you still have the leisure to look at other things?" Yu Wenji noticed the opponent’s gaze falling on his armor, and burst into a furious chuckle.
With a swipe, he waved his battle axe in the air, leaving a thin line of chilling radiance.
"You should be grateful; if I weren’t concerned about your master, you wouldn’t have lived to this mont!"
"....." Zhang Rongfang stopped speaking, his eyes flashed with faint glimrs, his dark vision intensely focused on the opponent, trying to find any flaw.
Utilizing the advantage to defend against the enemy naturally applied.
At this mont, in his vision, Yu Wenji appeared to be emanating a black aura all over.
This aura swirled around him continually like ribbons, wrapping around him like living creatures, leaving no gaps.
The gap would be a flaw.
And without a gap, it ant he couldn’t find any flaw in the opponent.
’Indeed, having the advantage to defend against the enemy is still inferior to the Grandmaster... it’s a contest of experience, a contest of martial arts tactics... I’ve seen too few martial arts...’
Crunch.
Crunch.
Yu Wenji began to steadily approach step by step.
The axe in his hand kept rotating, leaving trails beside him. It seed like random, natural movents, yet exuded an impenetrable defensive stance.
"Not going to make a move yet?"
"Or.... unable to find a flaw, making you unable to act?"
Yu Wenji’s voice beca increasingly pressing.
"Do you really believe I have so secret to restrain the God worship?" Zhang Rongfang suddenly asked.
"That question, by now, is actually already aningless. Whether you have it or not, it’s no longer important. Because.... you collaborated with the Reverse Ti Association to kill Zhou Yan!" Yu Wenji replied.
"And now, you’ve killed so many of my subordinates...." His eyes under the helt glinted with icy killing intent.
"So.... no matter what you plan to..."
Swish!!
Mid-sentence, Zhang Rongfang’s figure suddenly flashed beside him.
Spinning with the power of his waist, an arm slashed out like a blade!
Boom!!!
Yu Wenji, caught off guard, barely managed to lift his battle axe to block his side, but the axe blade didn’t guard him; only the handle managed to barely block it.
With a thunderous muffled sound, his massive body flew out sideways, crashing heavily onto a tall pine tree laden with snow.
The pine tree shook violently, breaking with a snap and falling down.
The tree, thick enough for soone to embrace, was forcibly broken in half.
"!!!??"
The three remaining Grandmasters’ expressions all condensed, their thoughts paused for an instant.
No one expected that in just this mont, Yu Wenji would find himself at a disadvantage at first contact!
Both calculated the advantage to defend against the enemy at the sa ti, yet Zhang Rongfang was slightly superior because of his ambush.
Yu Wenji, due to underestimating his opponent and being slightly arrogant, responded a step slower.
A step slower leads to continuous setbacks.
Bam!
Zhang Rongfang didn’t pause, as Yu Wenji flew out, he stomped the ground, following like a cannonball.
At the mont Yu Wenji crashed the pine tree, his body rapidly rolled, standing up, trying to regain balance.
But just in a blink of delay, Zhang Rongfang’s sharp eagle claw appeared before him again.
A piercing whistle exploded, akin to an eagle diving, breaking through the sky.
The dark red, thick eagle claw struck on the outside of Yu Wenji’s blocking right arm.
Clang!!
The armor twisted, shattered, and caved inward.
"You’re courting death!!!" Yu Wenji finally exploded, his whole body swelling violently.
Countless dark red, worm-like veins surfaced on his skin, and a large silver character of "Spiritual" glead brilliantly between his brows, protruding from under his skin.
He had grown up in the Snow Rainbow Pavilion, selected layer by layer from countless elites, and went through hundreds of battles.
There were rarely situations like now.
He, Yu Wenji, was actually being overpowered from the start, and by soone younger no less!
There were still three peers watching around!
This was an indelible humiliation in the future!!
Imdiately, his anger surged.
The Linghong Icy Skill he practiced was also one of the military techniques, and at this ti, two Extre States erupted simultaneously.
Extre State: Jin Hongyan!
Extre State: Cold Jade Dragon!
The forr temporarily enhanced burst speed. The latter temporarily enhanced penetrating damage.
The combination of the two was unbeatable!!
In the swishing sounds, Yu Wenji gripped his battle axe, slashing out a winding arc in an instant.
The arc seed to form a large, careless character in the night sky.
It also seed like a distinct silver crack. Reflecting moonlight, it illuminated the surrounding snow.
As the battle axe swung constantly, each move brought out silver cracks that twisted like dragons and snakes.
Zhang Rongfang kept retreating, dodging, avoiding the fissures, and always observing the opponent’s moves.
But soon, with a slight carelessness, the edge of the axe brushed his right arm, leaving a gash.
’Getting slower, can’t hold on much longer.’
His heart moved, and he also activated his Extre State.
Divine and Self Unification, Yin and Yang Coalescence, Combining Limits, all activated, temporarily boosting his defense, strength, endurance, and burst.
In the massive clash, the two engaged again.
This ti, from Yu Wenji having the upper hand, it returned to a barely even situation.
As Yu Wenji kept striking, Zhang Rongfang occasionally got injured once or twice but quickly healed on his own.
More importantly, what he gained was an improvent in absolute defense.
The higher the mastery, the more profound the martial arts experience brought to him.
Initiating against an enemy and the absolute defense circle, both complented each other.
In a Grandmaster duel, initiating against an enemy seeks to find flaws in the opponent’s absolute defense. While absolute defense seeks to defend against the opponent’s initiation, becoming unbreakable.
Which one is superior depends on an individual’s Martial Arts cultivation level.
In essence, Zhang Rongfang’s absolute defense circle doesn’t actually have a limit for improvent. As long as he encounters opponents with stronger martial arts realms and experiences, his absolute defense will never be perfect.
But what he wanted now wasn’t absolute perfection. It was to reach the level of completing the Grandmaster’s ultimate form!
And this level....
By now.... it is enough!!!
Zhang Rongfang suddenly retreated, not just a simple step back, but tapping his hands and feet rapidly, gracefully leaping back over ten ters like a water swallow.
His body landed easily on a snow pine branch, taking a deep breath, insights belonging to absolute defense and initiating against an enemy amalgamated together, coupled with the continuous high ntal concentration during the fierce battle.
And under the Extre State, rapidly circulating blood.
Multiple factors mixed together.
An inexplicable budding seed began to surface in his heart.
Condensing as a seed from Qi and Blood, using emotional will as water, and external pressure as nourishnt.
The seed rapidly grew.
His heart was beating violently, in an extre beat.
Body temperature peaked.
The body was adapting to new changes, new extres.
"Co again!!"
With a roar, Yu Wenji rose from not far away, swinging his battle axe continuously in mid-air, slashing out several silver thin lines, flying toward Zhang Rongfang.
By now, he was both shocked and furious.
Shocked that Zhang Ying actually had the combat strength of a Grandmaster.
Angry that, up till now, he couldn’t take down the opponent. Even after activating the Extre State, he was only on par with the opponent.
As a Fierce General and the leader of this team, being on par with a junior was already a humiliation.
Clang clang clang clang!!
In an instant, the two collided, the battle axe clashing against Zhang Rongfang’s arms, producing tallic collision sounds.
In strength, Zhang Rongfang was even slightly stronger, which compensated for his lack of speed and explosive power.
He suffered many setbacks in terms of moves, his body constantly getting injured in the process, but his strong self-healing ability allowed him to recover quickly, unaffected.
In Yu Wenji’s view.
Clearly, this guy never worshipped any god, no Spiritual Line visible on his body, nor could he sense the presence of a Spiritual Line.
But....
The more Yu Wenji fought, the more alard he beca.
’It can’t go on like this.’ He suddenly retreated, his aura retracting, then rapidly surging again.
His heartbeat accelerated to the extre, his muscles and skin covered with layers of dense Spiritual Lines.
This was a sign of the ultimate form about to be triggered!
By now, he no longer regarded Zhang Rongfang as a junior. Instead, he saw him as a true Grandmaster, on equal footing with himself!
Therefore....
