Nine Dragons Saint Ancestor Chapter 515 use his own strategy against himself

"Could this fierce battle be decided so quickly?"

Many people had this thought arise in their hearts; at this mont, they had evidently forgotten their previous thoughts. The swift and explosive exchange just now had made them realize the imnse power of Yun Xiao’s ridian Techniques.

Even Yun Xiao himself couldn’t help but speculate. The ridian Qi Sword ridian Technique, inherited from the Nine-layered Dragon Cloud, how could its power be imaginable by the cultivators of the Hidden Dragon Continent?

But Shen Wannian was ultimately Shen Wannian. As the super genius who was reputed to be the strongest contender for the championship of the Hidden Dragon Conference, how could he simply concede?

Whoosh...

At the critical mont when the five small swords were about to reach Shen Wannian, his aura suddenly exploded, breaking through to the Peak of ridian Union Realm almost instantly.

"Shen Wannian has unleashed the Ancestor Vein Power!"

Sensing the energy fluctuations in the air, so with keen senses imdiately detected the reason; the senior brother from the Qi Manipulation Sect had stirred his own Ancestor Vein Power.

Originally at the very Peak of the Late Stage of ridian Union Realm, Shen Wannian, upon activating his Ancestor Vein Power, instantly achieved a breakthrough, now surpassing Yun Xiao by two minor realms.

The breakthrough of Shen Wannian changed everyone’s thoughts once again. With his advancent, the five small ridian Qi Swords wielded by Yun Xiao seed to have lost their previous power.

Surpassing soone across one minor realm in combat was not unheard of in the Hidden Dragon Continent, but a genius who could fight across two ranks was as rare as phoenix feathers and unicorn horns, even on Tenglong Continent, let alone here at the Hidden Dragon Conference.

Puff puff puff puff puff!

Now at the Peak of the ridian Union Realm, Shen Wannian indeed showed advanced strength. As he waved his hands, the five small swords imdiately shattered into five streams of energy, dispersing into the heavens and earth.

"This guy is indeed not so easy to deal with!"

Sensing the dissolving ridian Technique energy in the air, Yun Xiao murmured to himself, but his face showed little worry, as if Shen Wannian, even at the Peak of the ridian Union Realm, still didn’t pose much of a threat to him.

"Yun Xiao, forcing to this point, you should be proud of yourself!"

The greatly strengthened Shen Wannian clearly heard Yun Xiao’s murmur, but he rely thought the lad was feigning composure. His voice carried a strong sense of superiority as he spoke.

To be honest, the strength Yun Xiao had displayed, along with what seed to be an Earth Rank-level ridian Technique, had truly startled Shen Wannian, forcing him to unleash his Ancestor Vein Power in such a short ti.

This was Shen Wannian’s trump card, sothing he thought would only be used in the final championship battle. He never expected to use it just for a spot in the top four against a junior at the Mid Stage of the ridian Union Realm.

However, Shen Wannian was not overly troubled, for in his view, if Yun Xiao could break his Qi-controlling Sword and pose a threat with those five ridian Qi Swords, then he deserved to see his strongest asures.

Of course, the greatest confidence in Shen Wannian’s heart was that after invoking the Ancestor Vein Power, he would overpower Yun Xiao with irresistible force, demonstrating to these geniuses of the Hidden Dragon Continent just who was truly the most dazzling among them.

"Now, let show you the most powerful technique of my Qi Manipulation Sect!"

With imnse pride in his heart, Shen Wannian cast a chilly glance at Yun Xiao, and then a special aura erupted around him, seemingly enveloping his entire body.

In the next instant, everyone’s eyes widened, for they saw Shen Wannian’s feet leave the ground although by just a few feet, it was indeed a clear departure from the ground.

At this mont, there was nothing supporting Shen Wannian’s body, and it appeared he wasn’t exerting any force from his feet, yet he stayed suspended in the air about three feet high.

"Is this... Flying Power?!"

Not only did this scene dumbfound the many low-level practitioners below the platform, but even the big shots of Tenglong Continent sitting in the high seats were taken aback.

"No, it’s not Flying Power, just so technique to keep his body briefly suspended in the air!"

The elder Gu Hua from Impermanence Island stared at the floating Shen Wannian for a mont and eventually shook his head, also greatly relieved inside, for such soaring through the air, even he could not achieve.

For cultivators of the Nine Dragons Continent, to achieve flight, one must at least reach the level of the Heavenly Rank Third Realm, possessing the ability to control Sky Power, only then can one soar freely through the skies.

But how strong was Shen Wannian’s cultivation really? He hadn’t even broken through to the Spirit Vein Realm, so flying off the ground was absolutely impossible.

Hearing Gu Hua’s words, the others all understood, and among the cultivators in the crowd, there were no lack of knowledgeable individuals. So even thought of the certain thods used by the Qi-controlling Sect of the Heavenly Empire, and they suddenly realized.

"It is said that the Qi-controlling Sect is proficient in the Qi Manipulation Technique. I didn’t expect them to have developed it to this extent!"

Below the arena, many such sentints were expressed. Although Shen Wannian could only hover briefly, the significance of such an ability in combat was evidently clear, even if thought about with one’s toes.

On the battlefield, situations change in the blink of an eye. Sotis, a small thought or a subtle movent could determine the tendency of a major battle, let alone the capability of hovering for a few monts.

Above the arena, wrapped in a special aura, Shen Wannian was already next to Yun Xiao in the next mont. If that kick, swung out like a rigid whip, had connected solidly, Yun Xiao would definitely face so trouble.

Just now, even Yun Xiao was startled by Shen Wannian’s hovering ability, but with his eye as the Long Xiao Battle God, he naturally discovered the trick quickly and thus imdiately relaxed.

At this mont, though Shen Wannian arrived quickly, how could his speed compare to Yun Xiao’s? Yun Xiao stretched out the index and middle fingers of his right hand and viciously stabbed towards a spot in the air, causing the audience to be sowhat baffled.

Because Shen Wannian was clearly on Yun Xiao’s right side, and that kick was also swung towards his right side, but the place Yun Xiao stabbed was on his left side, clearly unrelated.

Pff!

However, just as everyone was puzzled, a slightly peculiar sound suddenly ca, and imdiately after, a familiar figure with an incredulous expression appeared on Yun Xiao’s left side.

"Could it be a clone afterimage?!"

At that mont, everyone understood. The figure Shen Wannian had swung towards the right side of Yun Xiao was not his real body but a false image created by so special thod.

Normally, when speed reaches an exceedingly fast degree, afterimages can be produced, but at least on the Hidden Dragon Continent, or to say below the Earth Rank Third Realm, cultivators are unable to achieve this.

Clearly, Shen Wannian’s ability to produce an afterimage wasn’t because his speed had reached the utmost limit, but was due to the use of a special variation of the Qi Manipulation Technique of the Qi-controlling Sect.

This variation, if used against an enemy unaware of the details, would likely catch the opponent completely off guard, because you would be busy dealing with the illusionary shadows. When the real body attacks, it would be impossible to defend effectively.

It seed that Shen Wannian’s initial move to make his body hover was also a tactic to confuse Yun Xiao, making him fall into shock and thus be completely unprepared for a surprise move.

Who knew that Shen Wannian, who had deceived everyone, including all the big shots from the north except for Qian Sanyuan, ended up being seen through by Yun Xiao after all.

Not only were the bystanders dumbfounded, even Shen Wannian himself was as if he had seen a ghost. His usually invincible Qi-controlling technique had led to the death of countless enemies under this move, yet today it had failed for the first ti.

Shen Wannian knew clearly that only so ridian Refining Masters with extrely powerful Power of Soul might be able to detect a hint of this special technique, and even they would need so ti to react.

But the young man before him, looking only sixteen or seventeen years old, even if his Power of Soul incredibly reached the low level of Spiritual Rank, could he really discern the fake from the real body so quickly and calmly?

In fact, back then in Moon Cool City, Yun Xiao had once shown his badge as a Spirit-grade Advanced Pulse Refining Master, but Shen Wannian had clearly forgotten this fact, thus his montary stupefaction at this mont.

And this mont’s stupefaction ultimately decided the direction of this battle. The spot Yun Xiao stabbed was precisely Shen Wannian’s vital point. Plus with him shocked and bewildered, how could Yun Xiao miss such a perfect opportunity?

The outco of a battle often lies in the brink of a mont. If Yun Xiao hadn’t seen through Shen Wannian’s fake body, then the one to fall would undoubtedly be him.

But now there was no need for much discussion. With Yun Xiao striking a certain acupoint on Shen Wannian, his right hand moved even more like flowing water, directly touching a dozen other vital acupoints on the latter’s torso.

Pft-thump!

With so many vital points sealed, Shen Wannian felt as if all strength was drained from his body, and his legs gave way, causing him to kneel directly in front of Yun Xiao. Subsequently, his throat’s vital point felt an intense heat.

Endless humiliation and unwillingness surged wildly in Shen Wannian’s heart. But with his acupoints sealed and his vitals controlled, compared to his own life, what was anger or unwillingness?

Thus, at this mont, even if Shen Wannian felt his heart and lungs were about to explode from rage, he dared not make the slightest movent, because he knew that if he showed even a hint of hostility, his throat might soon have an extra transparent hole.

Although he had only interacted with Yun Xiao twice, the viciousness of this rough-clothed young man was sothing Shen Wannian had never doubted. If the ti ca, this guy probably wouldn’t hesitate a bit because of Shen Wannian’s status as the eldest senior brother of the Qi-controlling Sect.
