With a loud shout from Young Master Wei,
the entire mountain forest seemed to shake. Countless streams of green energy swirled and surged, converging towards the battlefield. Young Master Wei exhaled deeply, inhaling like a whale, fighting furiously while resisting attacks with his body, simultaneously absorbing massive amounts of spirit energy to heal his wounds.
Every moment he was getting injured, and every moment he was recovering.
Bang! Bang! Bang...
Miao Zhendong took a deep breath, enduring seventeen palm strikes. Young Master Wei was already bouncing back, his blood surging, blood flowing from his mouth. Surrounding him, several supreme masters' palm strikes and weapons continuously fell upon him, yet he remained undeterred.
After a fierce exchange, Miao Zhendong's breath ran out completely. No longer able to support himself, his face suddenly turned a deep shade of red. With a terrible scream, his entire right arm snapped with a crack, blood spewing out as his body was forcibly plowed into the ground, flying out with a loud boom.
It wasn't until his back crashed against a large tree that his momentum finally stopped. However, before Miao Zhendong could regain his senses, the roots of the tree inexplicably emerged from the ground, entwining him tightly with nearby vines multiple times.
With a sharp roar, Miao Zhendong unleashed a burning flame-like aura from his body, instantly turning the roots and vines into ashes.
Young Master Wei originally planned to continue chasing and attacking Miao Zhendong, but suddenly a fierce wind sound erupted from behind, accompanied by an enraged shout: “You wretched thing! You’re dead.”
It was the Second Protector finally arriving. This time, he was attacking with all his might, without holding back. If he hesitated, he would likely end up like the Great Protector Miao Zhendong. After all, Young Master Wei’s overwhelming strength and life-or-death ferocity were truly terrifying.
Seeing the Second Protector’s fierce approach, Young Master Wei did not engage but instead flipped over and rolled away, bizarrely vanishing into the air. In midair, with a flash of green light, tree branches grew densely in an instant, covering the entire space above everyone’s heads.
With a loud shout, the Second Protector unleashed a palm strike. In an instant, the hundred-foot-high airspace cleared, but Young Master Wei had already vanished without a trace, leaving only a hoarse laughter echoing: “Wait for death, you bastards!”
Everyone almost simultaneously leaped to the treetops. Looking around, there was no trace of the figure in green clothing.
From below came a painful groan, the source being the Great Protector Miao Zhendong.
“He’s really too ferocious!” Miao Zhendong’s old face wrinkled like an eggplant as he indignantly said, “I didn’t expect this treasure to be so fierce, cough cough…” He coughed up a few mouthfuls of blood.
His initial retreat when facing Young Master Wei was intended to dissipate the massive energy generated by their conflict; this was not unusual for a normal battle and was quite reasonable, even for a ninth rank absolute pinnacle supreme master. After exchanging full-force blows, retreating to relieve pressure was necessary.
Otherwise, he would have to withstand the enormous impact caused by the residual palm force, which could shock his internal organs, and it was no joke. Even though supreme masters are not easily injured and can quickly heal from ordinary wounds, damage inflicted by opponents of equal standing is not easily recoverable.
But he never expected to encounter such a monster today! A being with a cultivation level reaching the eighth layer supreme peak, who disregards his own safety and fights with reckless abandon.
This was truly a rarity.
Not only had he not retreated after exchanging palm strikes with the Second Protector, but he also ended up in a complete mutual destruction with Miao Zhendong. He was becoming increasingly insane!
