877: Chapter 873: The Power of Wuweizi!
“Hmph!
This was just a warm-up.
If you’re already afraid, how am I supposed to enjoy myself?”
Although his first strike didn’t land, Wu Weizi had undoubtedly seized the advantage in terms of momentum, and he began to grow increasingly smug.
“Afraid?
Don’t be ridiculous!”
Ye Tian let out a cold laugh.
Facing an opponent like Wu Weizi, he could not afford a moment’s carelessness.
Ye Tian began to gather his internal energy, channeling all the life force within him into his palm!
This was the power Ye Tian had inherited from the millennium ancient tree’s Shu Xin.
Although the tree’s heart had long since entered slumber, the life force inside Ye Tian’s body had not diminished in the slightest…
“A hand blade, isn’t it?
I can do that too!”
With that, Ye Tian formed his hand into the shape of a blade and slashed fiercely toward Wu Weizi.
“What?”
Wu Weizi initially saw Ye Tian’s strike as trivial and unimpressive, but as Ye Tian’s hand blade descended, he suddenly sensed the immense force embedded within it!
Strong as Wu Weizi was, he dared not directly withstand Ye Tian’s hand blade and quickly evaded the blow!
“Whooshhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!”
At the same time that Wu Weizi dodged, an enormous ancient tree, requiring five people to wrap their arms around its trunk, was reduced to dust by the sharp air blade unleashed by Ye Tian’s hand blade.
In an instant, wood splinters filled the air…
The martial artists, who had originally been locked in battle nearby, stopped fighting, regardless of their allegiance, because of Ye Tian’s astonishing strike.
The power of Ye Tian’s hand blade was so overwhelming, rivaling even the sharpest divine weapon!
“This guy is incredible.
It’s as if his whole body is one massive weapon!”
“Looks like Wu Weizi isn’t going to defeat him easily this time!”
“Not just likely—it’s possible Wu Weizi might lose altogether!
If that happens, this sect might cease to exist!”
…
The crowd’s chatter naturally reached Wu Weizi’s ears.
As the Sect Leader of Tianmen, how could Wu Weizi tolerate such comments?
He glared furiously at Ye Tian…
“Heh heh heh heh…
Boy, your skills aren’t bad, but if you think this level of strength is enough to defeat me, you’re sorely mistaken.
As the Sect Leader of Tianmen, I can’t possibly lose to a wet-behind-the-ears brat like you!”
As he spoke, the Wind Flow Strength inside Wu Weizi began to spin violently, producing a noise so loud that Ye Tian, standing close, could clearly hear it despite the distance.
The louder the sound of the vortex, the greater the force Wu Weizi was unleashing.
Ye Tian, as the closest person to him, could feel this immense power most acutely!
Around Wu Weizi, the winds fell eerily still, as all the wind energy was absorbed into his body…
Wu Weizi now seemed to have transformed entirely into wind!
It was Ye Tian’s first time encountering such an opponent.
Could it be that the highest level of absorbing the force of nature was merging completely with it?
The inner sect disciples of Tianmen couldn’t help but sigh upon witnessing Wu Weizi’s immense power!
“Looks like the Sect Leader is going all out now; in that case, Ye Tian is surely finished!”
“I’ve been part of Tianmen since I was a child, and I’ve never seen the Sect Leader unleash this kind of power in battle!”
“It’s impossible to distinguish him from nature now.”
…
The outer sect disciples, the Ding brothers, and the four elders of the Ye clan naturally noticed Wu Weizi’s overwhelming power.
The strength was such that they couldn’t help but break out in cold sweat for Ye Tian.
“Who would’ve thought Wu Weizi was this powerful?
Will our leader really be able to handle him?”
“You’re right; after all, we’re only outer sect disciples and have never known the Sect Leader’s true strength.
Judging by this display, his power is indeed incomparable!”
“I originally thought Wu Weizi was merely a strong fighter at the Innate Realm, but now it looks like his strength might be approaching the Heavenly Person Realm—definitely not to be underestimated!”
“Looks like Ye Tian has a brutal fight ahead of him this time!”
…
With Wu Weizi fused into the wind, the pressure he exerted on Ye Tian was immense, leaving Ye Tian no room for carelessness.
Ye Tian activated the Silent Qi of the Nether God and prepared himself to counter Wu Weizi’s attack.
“Taste my power!”
Wu Weizi shouted as he clenched his right fist and attacked Ye Tian.
“Just a basic attack?”
Ye Tian was somewhat surprised, as Wu Weizi’s punch seemed much slower than his previous strike and appeared far less potent.
As a result, Ye Tian used a traditional martial arts defensive technique to gently deflect Wu Weizi’s fist…
“Heh heh~~~”
Wu Weizi chuckled coldly, and simultaneously, Ye Tian suddenly felt an overwhelming rotational force emanating from Wu Weizi’s fist.
It was as if a hurricane was encircling the strike.
“Damn!”
Ye Tian sensed something amiss, but by then it was too late to pull back his move.
In an instant, his entire body was caught up in the rotational force surrounding Wu Weizi’s fist.
“Whooshhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh~~~~~~~~~~~~”
Ye Tian’s body whirled endlessly in midair.
The ground churned with dirt, and the trees in the valley were pulverized into splinters if drawn into the swirling force.
The rotational force was akin to a massive meat grinder!
“Die!”
But Wu Weizi’s offense didn’t end there.
After Ye Tian was trapped in the rotational force, Wu Weizi launched his fist with fury, and the hurricane-like power blasted at the rocky cliff.
“Boommmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm~~~~~~~~~”
A massive hole was blasted into the rocky cliff—a hole several meters deep—and the whole section of the cliff nearly collapsed.
“Leader!”
“Leader, are you alright?”
“Wu Weizi’s attacks are so fierce.
That brat might not be able to withstand them!”
“I didn’t expect Wu Weizi to be so strong.
Even if we deploy the Four Symbols Formation, there’s no way we can beat him!”
…
The Ding brothers and Ye clan elders watched Ye Tian, who had suffered the heavy blow, with fear in their hearts.
The foundation of their entire operation hinged on Ye Tian’s ability to match Wu Weizi’s strength.
If Ye Tian couldn’t hold his ground for even a few moves, then not only would they fail to secure justice for the outer sect disciples, but everyone’s lives would be lost here.
The inner sect disciples of Tianmen, upon witnessing their Sect Leader’s prowess, dared not delay further.
They immediately began channeling all their energy to unleash attacks on their opponents.
With their Sect Leader having incapacitated Ye Tian, it was now time to slaughter the outer sect disciples who had come to disrupt the sect, along with the elders of the Ye clan.
Afterward, Tianmen would restore its glory, and everyone would have a chance to shine before the Sect Leader!
“Why are these guys suddenly stronger?”
“Damn it, so they were just toying with us earlier?”
“At this rate, even with our numbers advantage, it looks like we won’t be able to beat them!”
…
In this sudden shift in circumstances, the outer sect disciples of Tianmen, though numerous, were beginning to struggle under the assault.
“Heh heh heh~~~ That strike should’ve ground that brat into pulp by now!
But don’t think you can die so easily.
I’ll present your corpse to the Dragon family!”
“Not only you—your women, your children, and everyone around you will be rounded up and handed over to the Dragon family.”
“Because of you, Dragon Shao died an untimely death, so everyone connected to you must perish!”
Wu Weizi stated coldly, already plotting how to handle repercussions from the Dragon family.
These actions were meant to ensure the Dragon family wouldn’t direct their wrath toward Tianmen…
Just as Wu Weizi’s smugness peaked, the massive hole in the cliff began to stir.
“Rustle!” “Rustle!”…
A series of crisp sounds accompanied by movement, and out of the hole walked a figure—it was Ye Tian!
With a light leap, Ye Tian once again stood before Wu Weizi.
Though he had narrowly escaped death, Wu Weizi’s attack had left Ye Tian’s body covered in wounds, his entire form resembling a patchwork of cuts as if sliced by small blades…
“You’re still alive?”
Wu Weizi stared in disbelief at Ye Tian.
To survive his full-powered punch was nothing short of miraculous—Ye Tian’s body proved incredibly resilient!
Yet Ye Tian’s expression was cold and chilling beyond measure.
“You want to kill all my women?”
Ye Tian asked icily, his words carrying an unmistakable aura of murderous intent.
The killing intent was so intense that even Wu Weizi felt momentarily startled!
But as the Sect Leader of Tianmen, with the upper hand against Ye Tian, Wu Weizi could hardly let fear cloud his resolve.
“Of course I’ll kill them.
You caused Dragon Shao’s death, so both you and everyone close to you must follow him to the grave!”
“Say that again!”
Ye Tian’s voice lowered further, the coldness sharper than a blade.
“I said, you and everyone close to you must follow Dragon Shao to the gr—”
Wu Weizi hadn’t finished his sentence when Ye Tian’s fist slammed into his face!
“Boom!”
Wu Weizi had no time to defend himself and was struck savagely, his body sent flying backward to crash into a massive tree.
“What’s happening!?”
Wu Weizi was floored with astonishment.
Ye Tian’s punch was fast, fierce, and seemed to bypass all his defenses—how had he managed this?
Wu Weizi couldn’t help but touch his swollen face, still shocked that Ye Tian’s blow had injured him…
“You damned brat, turns out you’re an emotional fool aren’t you!
Just mentioning your women stirs up such fury!
But this only makes me more intrigued!”
“Once I defeat you, I won’t kill you right away.
I’ll capture your women first and torture them in front of you.
I want to see whether you’ll die of heartache first or whether your women will die first.”
Wu Weizi sneered coldly, his words entirely devoid of pity…
Ye Tian’s countenance darkened, his killing intent now brimming over!
