Combat Emperor: Zhang Yu's Journey
Chapters... 313: End of the Fight (End)
In a time when the Qi was almost drained and the body was already very weak, there was nothing they could do when Gao Ran let out a dark wheel attack.
Although they had already tried their best in defending behind the Qi shield they had created, but in the end that Qi shield was not strong enough to withstand the attack.
Xiao Nie was injured, as were Long Ma, Wang Chen and the others. Only Zhang Yu remained who was far enough away from the center of the attack that he was able to survive it. However, the situation was very bad considering that now only those left had to face each other.
"Zhang Yu's! Your death is only a matter of time. But I want to linger with you, for this feeling of revenge to be fulfilled."
Zhang Yu flintered. At that moment his originally clean brow slowly appeared the sign of a faint bow. At the same time he felt his forehead warm and his entire body was being fed with Qi.
"It-it ...." Zhang Yu was speechless. He was like someone who had just made a breakthrough. His body felt light and the injuries all over his body gradually recovered and disappeared.
Uh...
Gao Ran felt strange. Even though Zhang Yu was silent in front of him, he somehow felt uncomfortable. But Gao Ran chose not to care about it. He raised his sword, creating a dark wheel to kill Zhang Yu.
Whuts...
Booms!
The explosion is very strong. Everyone watching could not help but think if the attack would injure Zhang Yu. However, surprisingly Zhang Yu actually resisted the attack and still stood up even if the dark wheel attack destroyed the surrounding territory.
Zhang Yu stood up and there was a layer of golden light enveloping his body.
It's like a dream. But all this really happened.
Long Ma's mouth, Wang Chen, even Xiao Nie was open to seeing that. Their lethargic countenance was now like finding new hope.
"What is that light that covers his body? What is a high-level protective artifact?" ask some people.
Long Shen who was with Zhang Yu felt a familiar feeling. But he wasn't convinced until some memories entered his head.
"Energy cape! It was a unique ability that Xiao Mu possessed. How could Zhang Yu master it? Could it be that Xiao Mu had also passed down this ability to Zhang Yu while at the ancestral altar?" inner Long Shen.
It was indeed an energy robe as Long Shen knew it. But not the gift of ancestor Xiao Mu, it was the true bloodline ability of the Xiao Clan. Zhang Yu managed to activate it when the bow symbol on his forehead shone, it was also the symbol that Ancestor Xiao Mu had given when marking himself with Xuan Yin.
"Patriarch!" The first elder with extremely severe injuries tried to get close to where Xiao Nie was. He also tried to tell about the bloodline strength of the Xiao Clan, but Xiao Nie had seen it as well.
"No single descendant of the Xiao Clan is capable of awakening the bloodline power of the clan after ancestor Xiao Mu. But now, Zhang Yu actually had the ability to awaken his bloodline power."
"With the energy robe, Zhang Yu's strength would increase greatly. Maybe this is the chance we have to beat Gao Ran. Moreover Gao Ran had fought for a very long time, he must have started to get tired," Xiao Nie added.
On the other hand, Gao Ran also felt the changes happening to Zhang Yu. He felt a little anxious for a short time, before his confidence made him arrogant. "I'm already at the eternal level, even if he gets the fourth heaven's grace won't be able to defeat me either!"
He re-created the dark wheel to convince himself that what happened to Zhang Yu earlier was a mere coincidence. His strongest attack was unlikely to fail. Not for the second time!
Gao Ran swung his sword which made the dark wheel spin so tightly.
Zhang Yu cast a giant claw shadow from the murderous sword technique. He coated it with a golden light emanating from his energy robe. It made the killing sword technique stronger many times over.
Wush...
Both attacks shot in opposite directions. For a moment the surroundings became silent when the two met at the same point, then followed by an outpouring of light and sound that deafened the ears.
The impact of this attack was even stronger than the previous attacks. Dozens of people who were injured and not so far from the place of the fight were not worth the impact.
But that was not the end of their exchange. After that powerful explosion, they hunted each other and exchanged melee attacks. Using great force, making the mountain slope state even more messy.
"Damn! How did he become this strong?!" Gao Ran clucked in annoyance. He measured Zhang Yu's strength which was completely on par with him. It was just that he was extremely unlucky for having already lost a lot of manpower after the fight with hundreds of spiritual beasts.
"Zhang Yu's! I'm not giving up. Even if it cannot destroy this land, I must kill you for the death of my brother!" inner Gao Ran. The move he took was already too far away to turn the course.
The fight became very fierce. The speed of both can no longer be followed by the naked eye. Other than the sound of the clanking of swords, all they could see were traces of attacks that destroyed anything in the surroundings. Even the mountain of corpses of spiritual beasts could not be separated from being their target.
Everyone knew that the future of the Zhen Yang mainland now only depended on Zhang Yu. The man who was clearly the youngest among them. But regardless of his age, he was the real hero in this fight. At least, wait until this fight is completely over.
However it was no longer a mere hope, seeing Zhang Yu progressively mastering the course of the fight and seeing the injured Gao Ran, just wait to count the time until victory fell into their hands.
"Bad! How could this situation be turned around! I can't take it!" Even so, nothing would change from the outcome of that fight. After the first wound that lay on Gao Ran's body, Zhang Yu did not stop swinging his sword until the opponent's body was full of incisions.
Until at one time, he used the ancient seal technique after the time limit of abstinence had just passed. He spread a pattern around where Gao Ran was standing, then activated the pattern so as to trap Gao Ran who could no longer move in his place.
"Zhang Yu!" gao Ran shouted furiously.
Zhang Yu tried to stabilize his breath, he raised the ledang of the universe, then took out a murderous sword technique to kill him.
"This is the end you deserve! Kill it!"
Duars!
The explosion occurred along with the expiring of the energy robe's time limit. Zhang Yu turned his face up, accommodating the blood that fell from the sky like rain that soaked his body.
Zhang Yu almost fell down before Xiao Nie came to grips with his body.
"Grandfather, Master, First Elder," Zhang Yu lowered his gaze looking at the faces of the three figures who could be said to be very close to him.
"Zhang Yu, you've saved this land. History will remember your name!" said the First Elder who was immediately taken in by Xiao Nie and Wang Chen.
Not only the three of them, but everyone who was there also admitted that Zhang Yu was the hero in this fight. They were even more disinclined at Zhang Yu when considering his extremely young age when compared to all of them.
Zhang Yu was speechless when everyone flattered him. But he suddenly recalled about He Jiao who had previously been on top of a cliff and had already helped them with his army of spiritual beasts.
But when he saw him there, Zhang Yu did not see the whereabouts of He Jiao. That made him a little worried.
"Zhang Yu, it looks like you know this girl. He's hurt really bad. His organs are malfunctioning." At that moment the head of the bamboo river academy came while carrying He Jiao.
Zhang Yu immediately walked towards him, he saw dozens of metal tubes stuck in his body, countless wounds and almost all caused by those metal tubes.
"It seemed like he was overextending himself while trying to seize control of the soul controlling technique. He might die" Long Shen said.
Zhang Yu narrowed his eyes, he pulled out a metal tube that stuck in He Jiao's body, then tried to channel his Qi even though his state was still unstable.
Long Ma who saw Zhang Yu so trying to save the girl felt he could not just watch. He took out some healing potions and gave them to Zhang Yu. "Try giving this potion to the girl."
Zhang Yu gave the potion. He felt he could not if he let He Jiao go. He had already promised Aunt Han Rui to bring her daughter back. Moreover, He Jiao was very meritorious in the fight against Gao Ran. Without his attempt at seizing control of the soul controlling technique, Gao Ran might still be alive today due to having an army of spiritual beasts as his reinforcements.
Uhuk!
After a long while, He Jiao vomited out a mouthful of fresh blood and she slowly regained her consciousness. He stared at some familiar faces, then tried to sit straight up.
"Zhang Yu, Head of the academy, ...."
This was to be the end of their fight against the eradication group that was trying to destroy the Zhen Yang mainland. Although there were two casualties from the two elders of the bamboo river academy, but their struggle would never be forgotten in the record of victory.
Zhang Yu who became the main character must have been the center of attention. In a very short time, just a month, his name had already spread to all corners of the Zhen Yang mainland.
Emperor Fighter. That was the nickname pinned on him. The hero who defeated the group of eradicators with a sword in his hand. It's stunning!
However, while everyone from every circle was talking about it. Zhang Yu himself only stayed in his residence, with his wife and only son. He relaxes, lazing around, just finishing up the food supply.
"If there is perfect happiness, it is to have free time to spend with family. Never waste someone who is next to you right now, dear, pour out all the feelings you have so that there are no words of regret later on" - Zhang Yu, the Combat Emperor.
