Chapter 253: Chapter 161: Overpowering (2)

Just as Jier Khan had said, he planned to defeat Chu Lingguang within twenty rounds and utterly humiliate the Great Yuan Dynasty.

HFF!

Chu Lingguang didn’t dare to underestimate his opponent, much less hold anything back.

As he brandished his Long Spear, he immediately channeled the surrounding Potential Energy. A burst of Wind and Wave Power erupted from his Spear Technique. When the saber and spear clashed, Chu Lingguang slid backward.

Samba, however, continued to charge forward.

’His Flesh and Blood Power is far stronger than what Chen Jin and Emperor Yue Xuan described. It seems that even when they joined forces, they couldn’t make him use his full strength.’

Chu Lingguang was inwardly alarmed.

He knew Emperor Yue Xuan and Chen Jin wouldn’t lie to him.

He had drawn upon the surrounding Potential Energy to channel the Wind and Wave Power, unleashing a full-powered spear thrust comparable to the might of several Dragon Elephants. He never expected to be repelled by Samba in an instant.

If his Heaven and Earth Skill hadn’t dispelled most of the force, he would have been sent flying backward.

CLANG!

Seeing Samba press his advantage, Chu Lingguang also roused his Qi Blood Power, combining it with the surrounding Potential Energy to meet Samba head-on.

KRAANG!

Samba’s Saber Technique was relentless, each slash hacking down toward Chu Lingguang. A crimson light flickered on the blade’s edge, seemingly an empowerment from his Divine Beast Breathing Method. It could also be that his years of drinking Beast Blood had transformed his Qi Power, causing it to manifest like flowing blood when he channeled it.

Chu Lingguang went on the defensive.

Nourished by five days of medicinal baths and empowered by the Day and Night Breathing Technique, his Flesh and Blood Power was perhaps no match for Samba’s, which had been honed by years of drinking Beast Blood. However, he had grasped the essence of the Unity of Man and Gun, and his channeling of Potential Energy had reached the state of being able to Do as You Please. Combined with his ability to freely switch between the three levels of Skillful Force and his Heaven and Earth Skill to dissipate force, Samba’s powerful saber attacks were unable to break through Chu Lingguang’s defense for the time being.

“RAAAGH!”

After a dozen rounds, Samba was enraged. He was determined to crush Chu Lingguang within twenty rounds with the force of a thunderbolt, leaving the Great Yuan Dynasty utterly humiliated.

For these last few rounds, he was using his full power.

Thus, amidst a flurry of slashes, he rapidly roused his Dragon Elephant Power. He executed a Powerful Slash of Hua Mountain aimed at Chu Lingguang’s Long Spear, determined to knock the weapon away and send Chu Lingguang flying out of the sand pit.

Chu Lingguang felt the might of this slash.

His Chang Chun Pile Skill took root. The Dragon Elephant within his body began to seethe, as his eight major meridians and his Blood Dragon Elephant simultaneously channeled the Potential Energy around him.

BOOM!

The saber and spear collided.

Sand flew up from behind Chu Lingguang’s heels as his feet sank into the sand pit.

His feet were rooted to the ground, and his Heaven and Earth Skill dissipated most of the impact. It allowed him to remain as unshakable as a mountain under Samba’s supremely powerful slash, his Long Spear continuously blocking Samba’s saber.

“Very good.”

A crimson glow appeared in Samba’s eyes. Chu Lingguang’s defensive strength was somewhat beyond his expectations, but the Saber Technique in his hands did not stop. He let out another explosive roar.

“ROAR!”

The crowd could almost hear the sound of the Beast Blood boiling within Samba’s body.

With the slash he brought down, the crimson glow on the blade’s edge grew even more distinct, looking as if it was about to roar and leap from the long saber.

Chu Lingguang shifted his feet, retreating as a prelude to advancing. His Spear Technique remained defensive as he executed a Wild Horse Leaping Over the Stream Middle Level Spear, once again clashing with Samba’s saber.

KRAANG!

Chu Lingguang retreated rapidly.

Although his feet were rooted to the ground, he couldn’t withstand the sheer momentum. Even with his Heaven and Earth Skill dispelling part of the force, the power from Samba’s Saber Technique made him retreat instinctively, forcing him back five or six steps in quick succession.

Each step left a deep footprint.

’This guy really has awakened at least twenty Bloodline Dragon Elephants. He can force me back using just his Dragon Elephant Power and Flesh and Blood Power with the most basic Saber Technique. If my Heaven and Earth Skill hadn’t dispelled most of the force, I would have been wounded by that single slash—even if I’d unleashed my eight major meridian Dragon Elephants and my Blood Dragon Elephant, all empowered by the surrounding Potential Energy.’

Chu Lingguang was inwardly alarmed, gaining a completely new understanding of Samba’s strength.

“The twentieth round, Chu Lingguang! You’ve lost!”

Samba saw that Chu Lingguang had retreated to the edge of the sand pit, and since the duel had reached the twentieth round, he mustered his strength for one final push and slashed at Chu Lingguang again.

This time, the sound of a Dragon’s Roar and Elephant’s Wail emerged from within Samba’s body. On the surface of his skin, traces of Dragon Scale Elephant Hide appeared.

He not only used his full-body Dragon Elephant Power but also activated his Majestic Skin Aspect. He didn’t just want to send Chu Lingguang flying out of the sand pit with one slash; he wanted to severely injure him on the spot.

Chu Lingguang and the crowd could feel the terrifying power contained in Samba’s slash. Many people looked at Chu Lingguang with worried expressions.

This slash marked the twentieth round. If Chu Lingguang were to be defeated just like that, one could only imagine how arrogant the Turkic Mission would become.

BOOM!

However, Chu Lingguang’s expression was calm. He executed Weeding for Snakes, and his Long Spear swung upward, swiftly intercepting the unstoppable slash.

In full view of the crowd, the mark of Dragon Scale Elephant Hide also appeared on the surface of Chu Lingguang’s skin, and it looked quite solid.

But this was far from enough.

At that moment, the Qi Vortex in his abdomen entered his bloodline.

The power of his Blood Dragon Elephant and his eight major meridian Dragon Elephants seemed to be blessed in that instant, causing his strength to soar. His entire body’s Flesh and Blood Power, along with the surrounding Potential Energy, condensed into this single spear thrust.

SCHING!

Chu Lingguang’s body shuddered.

His Heaven and Earth Skill once again channeled a portion of the force into the sand pit, halting Samba’s advance. The Horse-Cutting Saber in Samba’s hand trembled, and he felt that the power Chu Lingguang had just unleashed was no less than his own.

Lacking a technique like the Heaven and Earth Skill to dissipate the force, he couldn’t help but retreat two steps.

HFF!

Chu Lingguang seized the opportunity, switching from defense to offense. He executed the Cyan Dragon Emerges from Water Linked Spear, thrusting repeatedly toward the vital points on Samba’s upper body.
