Tongyan was only at the First Layer of the Heavenly King Realm, which put her at an enormous disadvantage compared to Wang Jinghe.
Although her innate talent was not bad, she wasn't a freak of nature like Su Han with his Defying Heaven Level abilities. She could handle ordinary opponents at the Fourth Layer of the Heavenly King Realm quite well, but Wang Jinghe was a genius of the Tian Luo Net Holy Land, truly extraordinary. In a mont, Tongyan was at a disadvantage.
"If you were Jun Zhantian, I might fear you a bit. But as the re Fifth Sequence, you dare to compete with ? You truly overestimate yourself!" Wang Jinghe's inherent pride was on full display. He took great pride in the Tian Luo Net Holy Land, and in the entire Eastern Region, only the Four Great Imperial Clans were worthy of his attention. As for other holy lands and powers, he simply didn't deign to notice them.
While Myriad Treasures Pavilion was strong, its main focus on comrce gave the impression that it wasn't a combat-oriented power. Therefore, among the ten sequences, he was only wary of Jun Zhantian and cared little for the rest.
Tongyan remained silent, unwilling to waste her breath on Wang Jinghe. Clasping the Fla Spirit Dao Sword and achieving Physique Fusion, she deployed various Martial Techniques to fend him off with all her might.
The Qi Holy Body wasn't a physique ant for combat but was more auxiliary in nature. It brought Tongyan incredibly good luck but offered average performance in head-on battles.
Although Wang Jinghe didn't possess a Special Physique, his talent and strength were formidable—otherwise, he wouldn't have beco a chosen genius of the Tian Luo Net Holy Land.
"Earth Rank High Level Martial Technique: Serpent Coil Hand!"
Wang Jinghe's weapon was rather unique: a set of close-fitting leather armor as thin as a cicada's wing. It resembled sothing crafted from human skin, adhering perfectly to Wang Jinghe's body. It not only possessed imnse defensive power but also incredible flexibility, allowing him to utilize his Combat Technique to its fullest potential.
Indeed, Wang Jinghe was different from other Martial Artists; what he excelled in was the rather uncommon art of the Combat Technique.
He spread his long arms, which moved like two supple serpents. They impossibly wound around the attacks of the Fla Spirit Dao Sword and struck Tongyan's wrist from an ingenious angle.
Tongyan, after all, possessed a Sacred Body. While not as strong as Su Han's, it still far surpassed that of ordinary Martial Artists. Even so, she felt as if her wrist might snap, and the pain was unbearable.
Unable to hold onto the Fla Spirit Dao Sword, she let it fall to the ground. Tongyan's aura burst forth as she attempted to break free from Wang Jinghe's grip, but it was in vain.
Wang Jinghe's raw strength wasn't overwhelming, but he was extrely skilled in his Combat Technique. He had Tongyan's wrist locked down, preventing her from escaping while the pain continuously intensified.
"Interdiate Grade Divine Skill: Life and Death Reversal!"
Tongyan imdiately deployed a Divine Skill. Instantly, Wang Jinghe's vitality began to transform into Death Qi, weakening him significantly. Following that, Tongyan burned him with the Earth Spirit Fire, which barely allowed her to break free.
However, Wang Jinghe was only slightly affected and remained uninjured, let alone severely wounded. Although the Earth Spirit Fire was powerful, it couldn't even burn through his Human-Skin Armor.
"It's useless. You can't escape from ," Wang Jinghe said, proving to be rather talkative as he spouted nonsense while fighting. "Just surrender quietly, or I might really have to destroy such a beauty." He eyed Tongyan as a cat would a mouse, not perceiving her as a threat in the least.
"Earth Rank High Level Martial Technique: Fla Wave Devouring!"
Tongyan acted swiftly, her Spiritual Energy surging as she unleashed her Martial Technique. The Earth Spirit Fire instantly swelled into a monstrous, churning wave that swept in from all directions, completely trapping Wang Jinghe.
"Interdiate Grade Divine Skill: Golden Dragon, Silver Snake!"
Wang Jinghe wielded his Divine Skill, and a golden dragon and a silver snake coiled around his body, both appearing incredibly lifelike.
WHOOSH!
The silver snake opened its mouth and inhaled all the surrounding flas. Then, the golden dragon exhaled, and a beam of golden light shot out like an arrow loosed from a bow, instantaneously piercing through space and striking Tongyan.
With a sickening tear, a gaping hole was pierced clean through Tongyan's shoulder. Crimson blood gushed out, a testant to her severe injury.
Wang Jinghe's Divine Skill was astonishingly versatile, combining both offense and defense. Coupled with his superior cultivation realm, he fought more valiantly as the battle dragged on, thoroughly gaining the upper hand.
Tongyan's face was drained of color and drenched in cold sweat. She had just managed to stanch the bleeding from the hole in her shoulder, but Wang Jinghe was too strong. Although she was tenacious, she had to admit that she was no match for him.
But even knowing I'm no match for him, I can't retreat. If I fail to hold Wang Jinghe off, Su Han will have to face both Bai Mu and Wang Jinghe. That would be a perilous situation for him. As long as I can hold on, the two of us will have a chance to escape. If I fall, Su Han will be defeated as well, and we could both very well die here.
"Void Holy Fla!"
Reaching out, Tongyan decided to use her life-saving treasure. A Treasure Bead appeared in her grasp, and sealed inside was a wisp of black fla. This black fla flickered slightly, seeming to exist within the void itself, capable of burning through space and incinerating everything.
This was the Void Holy Fla, a Holy Fire even more precious than Spiritual Fire. It was born from the heavens and the earth, and Tongyan had been fortunate enough to obtain it. Its power was comparable to a full-force strike from a Saint.
"Go!"
Tongyan imdiately released the seal. In an instant, the Void Holy Fla flew towards Wang Jinghe, incinerating space into oblivion along its path.
"A Holy Fire!"
Wang Jinghe's pupils contracted as he felt the imnse threat. Strong as he was, he couldn't withstand a Holy Fire. But he was, after all, a genius of the Tian Luo Net Holy Land with an impressive background. He reached out and actually produced a Saint Treasure.
"Saint's Finger!"
Countless golden specks of light converged, forming a hundred-ter-long golden finger that emanated an intense Holy Might. It flew directly to confront the Void Holy Fla.
Both forces were comparable to a Saint's strike and possessed equally terrifying power.
Upon collision, there was no deafening explosion, nor were there any storm-like energy fluctuations. Instead, the very space where they clashed began to collapse, vanishing into nothingness. It beca a forbidden zone where any living being that approached would face certain death.
"I'm done wasting ti. This move will decide it!" Having expended his Saint Treasure, Wang Jinghe's expression soured. He cast aside his playful deanor, intent on quickly finishing off Tongyan so he could turn his attention to Su Han.
His true goal was not Tongyan, but Su Han's head and the Nine Palace Golden Pagoda.
"Earth Rank High Level Martial Technique: Dragon Snake Bagua Hand!"
Though it was the sa rank of Martial Technique, the power Wang Jinghe now unleashed was even more terrifying, as he used the golden dragon and silver snake on his body as catalysts.
He teleported forward, instantly closing the distance to Tongyan. His hands, swift as serpents, began to coil around her. Simultaneously, the golden dragon and silver snake on his body shot out, moving according to the law of Bagua to seal off her escape routes.
Tongyan was already no match for Wang Jinghe, and she had been previously injured. Facing such a powerful strike, she was utterly unable to defend herself and was hit directly.
Spitting blood, Tongyan's delicate body was sent flying backward. Like a bird with broken wings, she tumbled hundreds of ters through the air before crashing to the ground, so heavily wounded she was unable to rise.
At this mont, with Tongyan severely injured, the situation had beco dire.
