Chapter 752: An Unpredictable Outcome
A gale assaulted the senses!
The dragonman youngster maintained the battle skill [Dragon Wings], and flew at an incline, dodging the massive three meter long bladed teeth.
Battle qi condensed into [Dragon Pearl], firing out as he evaded.
Bang, bang, bang.
The series of explosions did not move Xun Liang, all of it was blocked by the long slabs of ice floating around him.
Whoosh!
Xun Liang waved his long blades ever faster, forming afterimages in the air.
Faced with the powerful storm of blades, the dragonman youngster was forced to rise higher into the air.
Xun Liang deeply breathed and also flew into the air.
Battle skill – Feather Flight!
Gold level battle qi adorned his body, forming a felt textured cloak.
A chase unfolded in the arena’s sky.
The dragonman youngster attacked while retreating, choosing to avoid the enemy’s vanguard and used [Dragon Pearl] to delay and obstruct Xun Liang at range.
Xun Liang attacked more loftily and unrestrained. All sorts of battle skills flew from his fingers, and more often than not, before one battle skill was finished, another one was being used.
An unbroken battle qi circulation gradually formed within and outside his body.
As he flew high in the air, the battle qi felt cloak lengthened, covering a number of ice armor pieces and also the two three meter long blades in his hands.
By doing this, the battle qi circulation gradually outlined the shape of mammoth tusks.
Xun Liang’s battle intent skyrocketed, simply pushing it forward lightly, allowing the embryonic form to completely be refined.
A moment later, Mammoth Form was recreated!
When the giant mammoth took shape, his speed soared, and he overtook the dragonman youngster.
Boom!
Both sides ferociously clashed in the air.
Many spectators subconsciously stood up, and countless numbers of Long Fu’s supporters were on edge as smoke and dust scattered about.
The dragonman youngster raised both arms to block the two mammoth tusks.
“You aren’t the only one with a form.”
The dragonman youngster slowly raised his head, his eyes aflame with battle intent.
A battle qi circulation surrounded his body too, forming the tall and sturdy shape of a warrior.
It was War General Form!
…
Long Meng was using the same thing, using a foot to trample Qi Ci Lang.
Qi Ci Lang’s complexion was ashen as he started at the War General Form, “So, [Form] can also expel poison.”
Long Meng indifferently replied, “Although War General Form is an external form, part of it is rooted internally. Through battle qi circulation, invading toxins can be guided out of the body.”
“Impressive!” Qi CI Lang cackled, “Using [Form] is quite difficult. I didn’t expect your usage of [Form] to develop to this level.”
“Hehehe, you are very strong, wait until I resurrect, I’ll balance the books then!”
Long Meng stomped down, crushing Qi Ci Lang’s chest, killing him then and there.
But a moment later, a vast beam of divine power forced Long Meng back, and Qi Ci Lang had resurrected back to peak condition.
“Come again!” He arrogantly laughed, once again charging at Long Meng.
…
War General Form vs Mammoth Form!
The dragonman youngster gradually sank into a disadvantageous position.
“I’ve barely learned War General Form; I am not as skilled as Xun Liang!”
“But if I don’t use War General Form, I won’t be able to keep up with Xun Liang’s attack tempo.”
Like Long Meng said, [Form] was a fusion of battle qi, battle skills, and forces.
Mammoth Form’s two tusks were Xun Liang’s three meter long blades, a battle skill, the mammoth’s long hair was the battle skill [Feather Flight]. The mammoth’s ice armor was his Long Plate Ice Armor defensive battle skill.
These battle skills were all maintained and also could be freely discharged. When discharged, the mammoth tusks could grow sharper or suddenly extend in length. These active discharge type battle skills were released based on the [Form].
This also meant that many battle skills couldn’t be used because they conflicted with the [Form].
This was the drawback of [Form], but it paled in contrast to the advantages provided.
The dragonman youngster’s maintained War General Form unleashed many battle skills in almost a blink. This was because War General Form inherently contained many of them.
The dragonman youngster could also switch forces to have different effects on offense and defense of War General Form.
The problem was that Xun Liang knew many forces too.
When he was fighting with all he had, he easily suppressed the dragonman youngster.
The dragonman youngster clearly sensed, “My constitution is stronger than his, but my grasp of Form is inferior to his!”
“Xun Liang…you are worthy of being a former great barbarian fighter, as expected, you are amazing.”
The dragonman youngster fully appreciated Xun Liang’s power, and he had no choice but to retreat time and again, gradually growing weary from warding him off, his situation growing increasingly dangerous.
He could only clench his teeth, tear magic scrolls, and use the power of his equipment to give him an opportunity to breathe.
The audience in the arena sank into silence. All of them could see Xun Liang’s advantage was massive, and that he was suppressing the dragonman youngster more and more.
…
The divine power light beam slowly dissipated.
The fully restored Qi Ci Lang clapped, “Amazing, absolutely amazing. In so short a time, you’ve killed me three times, you’ve proven yourself Long Meng.”
“But how long can you sustain the intensity of your attacks?”
Long Meng’s breathing was faintly unsettled, but he looked resolute, “Enough to kill you seven more times.”
Qi Ci Lang’s expression changed precipitously, instantly becoming gloomy.
…
Magic scroll – Ring of Fire Ward.
Magic scroll – Flame Battle Clothes.
Magic Scroll – Slow.
Magic scroll – Thunder Strike…
The Gold Silk Chainmail, the Flowing Wave Armor, Reverse Sword Dragon Scale, Grand Arena Medal, Bu Quan’s goggles, Shifting Striker, Dragon Pearl Bullets, Dragon Strength Ring…
Dragon Breath medicine, Ferocious Beast medicine, Unyielding Blood medicine, Dense Fog medicine, Iron Sheet medicine, Agrypnotic medicine, high level Bloodlust medicine…
The dragonman youngster used all kinds of magic scrolls, equipment, and medicine, flabbergasting those watching.
The mouths of many watching twitched and tongues clicked.
“Those scrolls and medicine are worth over a thousand gold?”
“Long Fu really wants to win; he doesn’t hesitate to pay such a price.”
“Hahaha, he’s even using his items so forthrightly!”
Xun Liang had been entrenched for a long time, constantly taking a beating.
Money was also part of strength, and so long as one was willing to spend it, even a fighter could erupt with battle strength that exceeded their own.
This point was precisely what the dragonman youngster was illustrating.
…
“Number eight!” Long Meng’s fist pierced Qi CI Lang’s stomach, killing the latter again.
A hole split open Qi Ci Lang’s stomach, and clear as day, his deathly pale face fell to the ground.
But a moment later, a divine power light beam once again formed.
After the light beam faded, Qi Ci Lang looked at the panting and battle qi exhausted Long Meng, exposing a victorious grin, “Did you believe that because I am called Qi Ci Lang, that I can only resurrect seven times?”
Long Meng spat out, knowing he was going to lose.
His form really was devastating, but it depleted his battle qi immensely, and without battle qi to sustain it, he couldn’t use it. His basic martial arts were also great, but his stamina was exhausted too, and with his wounded body, he couldn’t move precisely.
By contrast, every time Qi Ci Lang was resurrected, he was in peak condition!
“What to do?” Long Meng also sank into bewilderment.
…
Xun Liang’s [Mammoth Form] was getting smaller, his battle qi and stamina were reaching their limits.
“It seems that the winner of this duel is Long Fu.”
“Hard to imagine that Xun Liang’s complete battle strength is so much stronger! His hands are empty, only relying on battle qi, battle skills, forces, and form to fight, yet it was enough to make Long Fu so battered and exhausted.”
Just as the audience believed the duel was about to end, suddenly [Mammoth Form] was dispersed, and then Xun Liang rushed forth in an unprecedented way.
Battle skill – Blade Plow Glacier!
Like a smear of light that streaked across the horizon, the ice meteor ran through heaven and earth.
The dragonman youngster only felt a blur, then Xun Liang was right in front of him.
“Block!” The dragonman youngster couldn’t avoid it, his heart erupted with an alarm that he had to block with all his strength.
Ring of Fire Ward was activated, but the sharp blade qi cleaved it apart.
His dragon scale-covered arms were pierced by the long blade.
The Flowing Wave Armor turned to liquid water, splashing all over, the Gold Silk Chainmail lasted a second, then was penetrated.
Xun Liang’s full strength was in this strike.
At the same time, he was also risking his life with this strike!
Under alarm and fury, the dragonman youngster’s full defenses were stimulated, simultaneously, his War General Form also burst out to take life away.
The frantic offensive bombarded Xun Liang’s body, lacerating his flesh, ripping out blood and bone.
Three seconds later.
The dragonman youngster’s terrifying counterattack came to a spontaneous end.
He and Xun Liang stood opposite to each other; his chest and heart were pierced by the long blade.
Countless spectators covered their mouths, so shocked not a sound came from them.
Long Fu received a mortal wound!
By contrast, Xun Liang appeared emaciated, the dragonman youngster bombarded the front of his body to nothing, his expression was a white skull, and his sternum was the only bone left. The barbarian’s internal organs were exposed to the air, still fiercely squirming.
Blood filled the ground, yet Xun Liang was still standing.
Tragedy!
The extreme tragic outcome of this all out clash stunned every viewer.
Until ten seconds later, when everyone present suddenly burst into startled shouts.
Zi Di was extremely worried, but she didn’t violate the rules by rushing into the dueling arena.
Lei Kuang and the other barbarians sat in the friends and relatives seating for Xun Liang; all of them stood up and looked on with incomparable respect.
The atmosphere rippled with solemnness and regret.
The dragonman youngster was both astonished and puzzled by Xun Liang.
How did this duel get to this point?
Xun Liang’s skull face slightly moved as his mouth opened, gasping out his thanks, “This is my path.”
“My redemption.”
“My Lord, my Father, Grand Paramount Barbarian God…”
A moment later, he plopped to his knees and fell in front of the dragonman youngster.
His life aura was completely gone.
The long battle qi blade in the dragonman youngster’s chest vanished already.
The frightening wound that ran through him was rapidly closing up and healing.
The dragonman youngster was unconcerned about the mortal wound to his heart.
He used the Bloodcore to instantly make a new heart as a substitute.
As for his original heart, he only needed divine spell healing after leaving the arena.
He deeply gazed at the fallen Xun Liang; this barbarian left an exceedingly profound impression on him.
Soon after, he looked around, his eyes sweeping across countless spectators, then raised his arm, “I am victorious!”
In the wake of his movement, everyone surged with wild laughs, enthusiastically celebrating the victor.
