Chapter 491: Chapter 214: Enveloped by Sword Momentum, Top 3 in the Provincial Examination
Thus, for close combat with Chu Lingguang, he fully unleashed his Dharma Aspect. The Giant Elephant Power from within his Dantian radiated a protective sheen over his internal organs.
Who would have thought that Chu Lingguang’s Divine Power would be just as the rumors claimed, ignoring all defenses and striking him as if directly in his chest.
As a result, the power of his punch, which had been on the verge of breaking through Chu Lingguang’s Spear Intent Fluctuation, was drastically reduced.
The bent Lightning Spear snapped back, and the force of the rebound sent him stumbling backward.
Chu Lingguang pressed his advantage, stacking his Primitive Power, Qi Sea Power, and Wind and Wave Power, and viciously swept his long spear across Hu Yuanwu’s abdomen.
His chest aching, Hu Yuanwu could only drop his stance and block Chu Lingguang’s spear with his forearms.
"BANG!"
This time, he slid backward, his feet gouging two trenches in the sandy ground.
"WHOOSH!"
Chu Lingguang pressed on, executing his Flying Leaf Lotus Spear to overwhelm Hu Yuanwu.
Hu Yuanwu unleashed a Perfection-level Fist Technique. An Elephant Hide Illusion materialized on his body, as if a giant elephant over ten meters tall was helping him block the attacks.
His Fist Technique continuously blocked Chu Lingguang’s spear thrusts.
But as they continued to clash, Chu Lingguang’s Spear Intent condensed. A sharp aura manifested on his spearhead, and he slashed down on Hu Yuanwu’s Profound Iron Fist Glove.
The defense of the Profound Iron was astonishing.
Even the Spear Intent Fluctuation struggled to pierce it.
But Hu Yuanwu’s six-layered Dharma Aspect and Qi Power Gang Shield were completely unable to resist it. Sparks erupted from the glove, and a clear gash appeared on its surface.
Hu Yuanwu’s expression turned grim. These fist gloves had been incredibly expensive; it would be a real pity if they were destroyed by Chu Lingguang’s Spear Intent. He immediately leveraged his superior Qi Power to switch from defense to offense, intending to break through Chu Lingguang’s Spear Technique, cut through the middle, and land a devastating punch.
But Chu Lingguang’s Flesh and Blood Divine Power seemed to be everywhere. The instant the long spear thrust forward, Hu Yuanwu once again felt a pang in his chest. His advance slowed, and a flaw appeared in his defensive Fist Technique.
Chu Lingguang seized the opportunity, attempting to win in a single blow.
At that moment, however, Hu Yuanwu’s eyes turned crimson. Two vortices, each the size of a washbasin, appeared on his fists and sucked in Chu Lingguang’s long spear.
’Bloodline Divine Abilities?’
Chu Lingguang was shocked.
Yan Zhen and the others were also captivated by this scene.
To have reached their current level of power, every one of them had awakened Bloodline Divine Abilities. But they all kept them hidden, refusing to reveal them easily.
The massive vortices on his fists were Hu Yuanwu’s Bloodline Divine Abilities.
Chu Lingguang found his long spear being pulled off course, about to be snatched away by Hu Yuanwu. If he lost his long spear, he would be no match for him.
At the critical moment.
His ’Slow’ Potential Energy erupted.
The power of Hu Yuanwu’s Bloodline Divine Abilities was drastically reduced, and most of the pulling, sucking force vanished. A look of delight flashed across Chu Lingguang’s face as he seized the moment to channel his Wind and Wave Power, fusing it with the ’slow’ Potential Energy.
Hu Yuanwu felt the sand on the ground swell into a wave over ten meters high and crash down upon him. He threw out two punches in quick succession, the Vortex Power on his fists disintegrating Chu Lingguang’s Wind and Wave Power.
But before he could breathe a sigh of relief, he immediately saw a spearhead pierce his defenses and thrust toward his chest.
In his haste, he grabbed the spearhead with his gloved right hand. He knew Chu Lingguang’s Spear Intent Fluctuation was incredibly sharp, capable of easily slicing through a six-layered Dharma Aspect and Qi Power Gang Shield.
It could even leave a gash on his own Profound Iron Fist Glove. Thus, he had to grab the spearhead and fully channel the Giant Elephant Power from his Dantian, hoping to wrench the long spear from Chu Lingguang’s grasp.
As Yan Zhen watched, Chu Lingguang’s long spear thrust toward Hu Yuanwu’s palm, but it was first caught by the vortex in front of his hand. As the spearhead pierced the vortex, Hu Yuanwu’s hand clamped down on it, gripping it tightly.
He frowned, a flicker of doubt in his mind. ’Normally, Chu Lingguang wouldn’t be this reckless. Hu Yuanwu’s Bloodline Divine Abilities, the two vortices on his fists, can resist most of the force. Combined with his Profound Iron Fist Gloves, even if Chu Lingguang’s Spear Intent is strong, he shouldn’t be able to break through Hu Yuanwu’s defense at this moment.’
But he knew Chu Lingguang was calm and collected.
That thrust was definitely not just for Hu Yuanwu to grab the spearhead. Using his powerful Perception Power, Yan Zhen saw Spear Intent Fragments erupt from the gaps between Hu Yuanwu’s fingers. But before they could fully bloom, they were immediately sucked into the vortex on Hu Yuanwu’s other hand.
The Lightning Spear flew from his grasp.
An uproar erupted from the sharp-eyed onlookers.
For Chu Lingguang to lose his long spear was like a tiger having its fangs pulled. How could he possibly fight Hu Yuanwu now?
However, just as Yan Zhen was feeling bewildered, Chu Lingguang looked at the Lightning Spear seized by Hu Yuanwu, but instead of trying to snatch it back, he threw a full-force punch at the butt of the spear.
"BOOM!"
In that instant, it was as if Chu Lingguang could see right through to Hu Yuanwu’s internal organs.
His Flesh and Blood Divine Power peaked at that moment. It traveled through the long spear, passed through Hu Yuanwu’s bloodline vortex, Profound Iron Fist Glove, and even his arms, landing squarely on Hu Yuanwu’s chest.
The triumphant expression on Hu Yuanwu’s face hadn’t even had time to bloom before it froze.
He had already experienced Chu Lingguang’s Flesh and Blood Divine Power. He knew the pang of pain in his chest could diminish his combat effectiveness at a critical moment, but he believed he could resist it.
So, while he was wary of it, he didn’t think Chu Lingguang could turn the tide of battle with this power alone.
Yet, at this moment, he felt as if Chu Lingguang’s long-prepared punch had, while he was defenseless, bypassed his physical body, his Dharma Aspect, and even his Qi Power Gang Shield to land solidly on his internal organs.
