Chapter 425: One Person Against Two Geniuses
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Just as Qin Hongyue suggested that Yin Jueying make a move, a faint spatial fluctuation appeared around Chen Yiming.
In the next moment, a terrifying tremor exploded in space, and a huge spatial rift appeared in the air.
The power of compression, collision, distortion, rain of light, and so on were mixed in the space.
In fact, a portion of the power rolled back towards the Flying Cloud Planet. At that moment, the entire planet seemed to have deviated from its natural trajectory and started to tremble.
In Flying Cloud City, a group of gods at the level of the star condensation realm attacked and destroyed all the power that had fallen from the sky. Only then did the city avoid the outcome of being wiped out and the countless spaceships at the port were saved.
Outside the city, they were not so lucky. The huge area seemed to provide enough space to dodge, but in the end, an endless amount of land collapsed. Boulders soared into the sky, and sand covered the sky, leaving behind countless bottomless ravines.
At this moment, no one cared if there were any casualties. With such a terrifying aftershock, those who did not stay in the city could only pray.
“This… No wonder Jiang Lan didn’t manage to counterattack.”
Initially, he had wanted to test the waters, but now, his fiery heart had completely turned cold. He was even lucky that he was not the one who had made the move.
The opponent was suspected to be a spatial ability user and had such a terrifying body. Ordinary geniuses like Jiang Lan could tell at a glance that the difference in their physiques was too great.
Only those at the top of the younger generation in the Hidden Dragon Galaxy, or perhaps only the elders, could fight against him.
“Is the ruler of the Flying Cloud Planet really not going to stop him?”
At the same time, someone looked in the direction of the ruler’s mansion, but there was no movement in that area. It was as if nothing had happened.
Just like before, even the aftershock was destroyed by the inner forces from the city.
In the dark space, the rain of light was gradually extinguished. It was as if Jiang Lan had died tragically at Chen Yiming’s hands.
A voice sounded from Gao Shuai, “Brother, the Jiang clan’s Rain of Light Technique can borrow the power of the starlight. Jiang Lan also has a trump card to protect her life. She might be preparing to fake her death to escape.”
As soon as he said this, the rain of light that had completely extinguished suddenly lit up again, as if it had fused with the stars in the sky. The starlight was continuously absorbed, and its aura quickly increased again.
Then, it turned into dozens of phantoms formed by the rain of light and spread out to keep a distance from Chen Yiming, preventing them from being completely wiped out by a single punch.
Chen Yiming frowned. His punch had covered the entire rain of light, and he had already sensed that Jiang Lan’s aura had fallen to nothing. He hadn’t expected such an outcome.
The space anchor was still on one of the shadows, so she was truly not dead.
He immediately continued to attack. His figure completed the space-jump and threw out another punch. This punch directly killed the shadow at the coordinates of the space anchor, including the few nearby shadows.
Space seemed to have distorted and shattered at this moment. An invisible shock wave swept across the galaxy, destroying all obstacles in its way. Even the huge planet, the Flying Cloud Planet, was trembling slightly.
Indeed, if the target was the Flying Cloud Planet, it would not be able to withstand more than a few such attacks. In a battle at the level of a god, the planets were nothing much.
At this moment, the phantom rain of light condensed again. At the same time, Jiang Lan’s voice sounded, “This is the Jiang clan’s Rain of Light Technique. Perhaps you can defeat me, but it’s impossible for you to kill me.”
“As long as the stars are not destroyed, even if the inner world is destroyed by you, it’s only a matter of time before I revive. So give up. It’s useless.”
“You have to think carefully. If you use all your strength in vain, you may not be able to leave this galaxy.”
Her voice suddenly returned to its original tone, as if she was a true genius looking down on a poor kid who had grown up in a commoner’s family.
That was true. There were many hidden geniuses on the Flying Cloud Planet. It was very dangerous to not care about one’s own energy consumption at all.
At that time, even Gao Shuai wouldn’t be able to protect him. After all, Gao Shuai was from the Gao clan, but Chen Yiming wasn’t.
Chen Yiming smiled when he heard this. Unless he really let Jiang Lan fake her death to escape, if she kept using the Rain of Light Technique, no matter how mysterious it was, it would still use up her energy.
In the past, he could not directly break through the inner world of the demon god in the dark forest world. In the end, he still relied on a battle of attrition to forcefully wear down the demon god.
In terms of endurance and physical strength, he had never lost.
Just as Jiang Lan finished speaking, he moved.
The coordinates of the space anchor constantly shifted, and his figure appeared at different locations in space. The moment he appeared, he threw a punch at the shadow of the rain of light.
Due to the fact that his spatial ability enabled him to cross long distances, there was no corner in the space near the Flying Cloud Planet that could not be covered by his fists.
This was the most primitive power that could be unleashed freely in space.
“Boom, boom, boom…”
In the blink of an eye, countless holes appeared in the void, and the aura of the spatial distortion leaked out. The power of distortion became stronger and stronger, and it wanted to suck Chen Yiming and Jiang Lan in.
In Flying Cloud City, “Oh no, could it be that that person wants to drag Jiang Lan into the spatial distortion?”
Those who had a close relationship with the Jiang clan were shocked.
Thinking of this, they immediately paced back and forth anxiously.
The spatial distortion was a place that made one’s expression change when they heard about it.
The Rain of Light Technique could obtain the characteristics of light, but light would also get lost in the spatial distortion. At that time, it would be difficult for the Jiang clan to help her out.
“As expected, he’s a spatial ability user. That’s really troublesome. The genius daughter of the Jiang clan is in danger.”
In Flying Cloud City, there were at least dozens of existences at the level of the star condensation realm among the humans and the alien species. However, at this moment, all of them were standing their ground.
So what if the shadows of the rain of light in space could move as quickly as light? In a head-on collision, they were not strong enough, and their speed was countered by the spatial ability.
Now, the spatial ability user had indirectly created a combat environment that was disadvantageous to the enemy and beneficial to them. No one dared to interfere.
On the open-air observation platform, Qin Hongyue’s eyes flickered as she quickly said, “I heard that the Roc clan and the Jiang clan intend to join forces to find the true dragon’s corpse. So it’s really a rumor!”
It was no longer just a matter of Jiang Lan’s defeat. If she was not careful, she could be completely dragged into the spatial distortion at any moment.
If Yin Jueying made a move now, it would immediately confirm the relationship between the Roc clan and the Jiang clan. If he allowed Jiang Lan to fall into the spatial distortion, it would be extremely bad for his reputation.
After all, they had sparred many times, so they naturally had a good relationship on the surface. If he stood by and did nothing at this time, it would put him in a disadvantageous situation.
As soon as she finished speaking, a golden light soared into the sky. Yin Jueying had made a move.
Yin Jueying was a genius on the same level as Qin Hongyue, and was the representative of the Roc clan’s younger generation. Compared to him, Jiang Lan also had the speed of light, and was only lacking in physique and talent.
This genius from the Roc clan had a body as strong as his speed. He had once flapped his wings and destroyed an inhabited world with a single strike, and it was even an inhabited world with a star spirit.
Even with the support of a world’s will, it was difficult to withstand the splitting of an inhabited world. It could be seen that it had a lethality that was incomparable to those of the same level.
Countless clangs rang out.
A roc flapped its wings, and golden patterns appeared on the sharp scales on its body. Then, countless golden spikes shot towards the battlefield in space, and golden light lit up the dark space.
This was the power cultivated by the roc clan from the Hidden Dragon Galaxy. It was the clan’s signature technique, the Golden Pattern Technique. It was very different from the original power of the world, and its lethality had increased by several levels.
“Yin Jueying is willing to help. It shouldn’t be a problem now.”
In Flying Cloud City, countless people heaved a sigh of relief. It was two against one, and Jiang Lan and Yin Jueying were both people who specialized in speed and were extremely difficult to kill.
This way, her life would not be in danger. In fact, with the tacit cooperation, it was not impossible for the spatial ability user to be defeated.
This was based on their past achievements. There were people with spatial abilities who had been killed in a similar way.
After Yin Jueying joined the battlefield, Qin Hongyue walked over to Gao Shuai’s side with a smile. This immediately frightened Gao Shuai, and he almost thought that he was going to be kidnapped.
One of them was at the fusion realm, and the other was at the star condensation realm. Not only was there a difference of one cultivation realm, but there was also a huge difference in their mastery of strength.
“Sister Qin, I didn’t know that Jiang Lan would get into a conflict with my brother. Otherwise, I would definitely explain the relationship between our clans clearly.”
With that, Gao Shuai made sure that he had not received any warnings about his fate before he relaxed.
Qin Hongyue glanced at a spot in the crowd before turning back and saying with a smile, “Fat Man Gao, why are you so nervous? In the past, there were several times when someone set up an ambush to capture you, but you dodged them in advance.”
“A prophecy-type special ability can make a prediction on others. On the other hand, it’s often equally sharp when it comes to protecting yourself. This has long been revealed.”
“Otherwise, you would already have become a tool. How can you still have your freedom?”
Gao Shuai laughed it off. Some things could not be admitted.
This was the reason why he had the ability to accurately predict the strength of his target, but still had an accuracy of 10%.
The true limitation of his special ability was that the target of his prophecy ability would receive a large amount of enhancement such that the backlash was greater than expected. If others figured it out, wouldn’t he become a tool for them?
For example, if he was asked to predict the location of the true dragon’s corpse, he might die before he could see it clearly.
Qin Hongyue didn’t think much of it. Her big eyes flickered as she continued, “You found a powerful helper. Are you really going to participate in the fight for the true dragon’s corpse?”
Gao Shuai immediately shook his head and gave out the excuse he had prepared in advance. “How is that possible? The true dragon’s corpse is no small matter. The gazes secretly watching it are definitely not limited to the various factions in the Hidden Dragon Galaxy.”
“Even if the eight human clans in the Hidden Dragon Galaxy join forces to find it, so what? It’s all in vain.”
Qin Hongyue nodded and said, “That’s true. Otherwise, why would so many people be staring at you, Fat Man Gao? Although your name is Gao Shuai, in reality, it’s anything but.”
Gao Shuai’s expression froze.
Was he unable to get over this problem? They were all afraid that he would secretly take away the true dragon’s corpse.
In reality, he had indeed thought of this, but he had a feeling that with his current strength, he would be doomed if he participated.
The way to break out of the situation was to introduce external forces.
Everything was still within his expectations. No matter how good Chen Yiming’s performance was, he was still at the level of the star condensation realm, the starting point of the path of a god. For the time being, he wouldn’t pay too much attention to those who were really involved in finding the true dragon’s corpse.
However, the Qin Hongyue in front of him was being too stubborn. He was afraid that she was someone he could not shake off. It was very troublesome.
Just as the two of them were chatting, the battle in space became even more intense.
The rain of light that filled the sky lit up again after it was extinguished. At the same time, a large amount of the rain of light was devoured by the spatial distortion. Finally, after Yin Jueying made a move, Jiang Lan’s figure could materialize normally.
“Kill!”
The golden spikes sealed off the entire space. Unless Chen Yiming teleported away, there was no room for him to dodge.
In reality, he had not thought of dodging at all. With his Undying Body talent and the Giant Talent, he was not afraid of any head-on challenge from anyone of the same level.
At the same time, a roc claw was so sharp that it didn’t need to move at all to leave behind spatial rifts. At this moment, a golden light shone brightly as it grabbed at Chen Yiming.
Chen Yiming’s gaze narrowed as he allowed the golden spikes to hit his body. Clang! Clang! It was as if they had hit an indestructible object. At the same time, he threw a punch back at the roc claw.
“Bang!”
A loud bang shook the Flying Cloud Planet.
“No way!”
Countless people were shocked. That was Yin Jueying, a member of the strongest among the younger generation in the Hidden Dragon Galaxy.
The roc claw was no match for the fist. Before it could make contact, it exploded into dust and was sent flying back.
A cry of pain rang out through the starry sky. Yin Jueying returned to his human form from the giant roc form and gritted his teeth as he waited for his right arm to slowly grow back. Although it was not a fatal injury, the pain was still there.
Their bodies collided head-on, or rather, in terms of innate physique, Yin Jueying from the Roc Clan from the Hidden Dragon Galaxy had lost to someone who had appeared out of nowhere.
Countless gazes were still filled with shock. The person that Gao Shuai had found had been fighting with his primitive talent from the start to the end.
This also made it impossible to obtain more information about the secret techniques, cultivation techniques, and so on to determine where he came from and what his goal was.
After Jiang Lan took a deep breath, she took the initiative to attack for the first time.
She had been beaten too badly by Chen Yiming previously. It could be said that in the one-on-one fight, she had not been able to fight back at all. She had already accumulated some resentment in her heart.
The rain of light that floated out of her body gradually turned into countless light blades.
The lethality of the light blades was considered top-notch among those of the same level, but they were even better at speed. Their attack speed was comparable to the speed of light, and it was almost impossible to completely dodge them.
“Swish, swish, swish!”
When Chen Yiming shattered the roc claw with a punch, his body was already surrounded by countless light blades. Similar to the golden spikes that filled the sky earlier, they were all large-scale attacks.
“That’s all? It’s useless.”
Chen Yiming chuckled and allowed the light blades to reach him.
This was the truth. The golden spikes that filled the sky were not lethal enough, and the light blades were naturally not enough. When they could not break through his defense, the threat of their speed would decrease greatly.
At this moment, Jiang Lan’s main body had also turned into a rain of light and fused into one of the light blades. Seeing this, she sneered and said, “If you want to use your spatial ability to dodge, don’t bother. If you’re so arrogant, just wait for your death.”
As soon as she finished speaking, above Chen Yiming’s head, as Jiang Lan’s figure appeared from a light blade, a beam of light that cut through the galaxy blossomed, accompanied by a blood-red divine sword that slashed down from the sky.
The blood-red divine sword was one of the protective treasures given to Jiang Lan by the Jiang clan, a large human clan in the Hidden Dragon Galaxy. Its level was not something that someone at the star condensation realm could withstand. It was definitely a trump card that could protect one’s life.
It was not that Jiang Lan did not want to use it previously, but that the situation did not allow it.
At that time, she was unable to fight back. If she took out the blood-red divine sword, there was a risk that her sword would be snatched away on the spot.
