Capítulo 1304: Chapter 1293: The Mighty Tian Xuan Great Elder
Ning Fan looked gravely at the oncoming palm strike. Although it was just a casual strike from Tian Xuan, its power was not to be underestimated!
“The strength of the Aerial Mastery Realm intermediate stage is truly formidable!” Ning Fan murmured softly, narrowing his eyes.
Facing Tian Xuan’s strike, Ning Fan dared not be careless. The True Qi within his body surged out, instantly forming a faintly glowing True Qi protective barrier around him.
The faintly glowing True Qi protective barrier was like a giant eggshell, protecting Ning Fan within it.
Tian Xuan’s massive True Qi palm struck fiercely on the True Qi protective barrier outside Ning Fan’s body.
The True Qi protective barrier, subjected to such powerful force, emitted visible ripples but showed no signs of breaking.
“Your eggshell is quite sturdy.” Tian Xuan remarked with some surprise, looking at the True Qi protective barrier around Ning Fan.
The True Qi protective barrier is a skill mastered by every ancient Martial Artist. It’s considered the most basic and simplest defensive skill.
By simply emitting True Qi outward, one can form a solid protective barrier.
However, the True Qi protective barrier has its shortcomings. The consumption of True Qi is considerable, and its defensive effect is far inferior to some defensive Martial Techniques.
According to Tian Xuan’s estimation, his strike should have at least shattered the protective barrier around Ning Fan’s body. Surprisingly, his strike only caused ripples, with no other results!
This left Tian Xuan somewhat unwilling.
Ning Fan glared at Tian Xuan coldly and said, “It’s my turn now!”
As soon as he spoke, Ning Fan’s body launched out like a cheetah, swiftly charging towards Tian Xuan.
As Ning Fan charged, Tian Xuan showed no panic, his face remaining calm.
“Stop!” Tian Xuan pointed at Ning Fan, saying calmly.
As Tian Xuan’s words fell, the True Qi within him transformed into chains, shooting towards Ning Fan’s limbs.
Tian Xuan knew he couldn’t kill Ning Fan, so he chose to capture him alive. The chains were formed entirely from True Qi, extremely solid!
Once Ning Fan’s limbs were bound by these True Qi chains, he would immediately lose his mobility, becoming like a sacrificial lamb.
Ning Fan’s eyes narrowed, recognizing the extraordinary nature of these True Qi chains.
“No, I can’t let these chains bind me!” With a thought, Ning Fan slightly sidestepped, dodging a shooting True Qi chain.
But that was only one chain; the remaining chains were still aiming for Ning Fan’s arms and legs.
“Hah! Trying to bind me? Dream on!” Ning Fan snorted coldly, causing the True Qi within him to erupt, colliding forcefully with the chains and dispersing them instantly.
Ning Fan turned to Tian Xuan and said coldly, “Old man Tian Xuan, do you really think I’m weak? Do you think you can easily bully me? Since you underestimate me, let me show you my true power!”
Feeling the change in Ning Fan’s aura, Tian Xuan was shocked. He hadn’t expected Ning Fan to hold back during the earlier exchanges!
“Ha!” Ning Fan shouted lowly, transforming into a streak of Flowing Light that charged at Tian Xuan.
If Ning Fan’s speed was like a plane before, it was now like a rocket. In an instant, Ning Fan was beside Tian Xuan, swinging a punch fiercely towards his body…
The Second Elder, watching Ning Fan’s sudden acceleration in the sky, broke out in a cold sweat, “This kid had hidden his power all along!”
The Second Elder couldn’t believe it. If Ning Fan had started with such speed against him and the Third Elder, they would’ve lost even faster!
“This kid is truly terrifying!” The Fourth Elder murmured, staring at Ning Fan in a daze.
“Only big brother might be able to suppress this kid.” The Fifth Elder said, watching Tian Xuan entangled in battle with Ning Fan in the sky.
After dozens of rounds of combat with Ning Fan, Tian Xuan began to feel fatigue setting in.
“No, if this continues, I’ll be worn out by him!” Tian Xuan was anxious. No matter what attack he launched against Ning Fan, Ning Fan always blocked it skillfully.
Ordinary punches and kicks were no threat at all to Ning Fan!
Moreover, Ning Fan, being young, was full of energy and vigor; prolonged fighting posed little challenge for him.
But it was different for Tian Xuan, being over a hundred years old, his physical condition couldn’t compare to a young man like Ning Fan.
If the battle continued, Tian Xuan figured he’d eventually succumb to exhaustion, losing his ability to counterattack!
“Void Breaking Palm!” Tian Xuan shouted, channeling True Qi into his palm and striking fiercely at Ning Fan.
Tian Xuan’s strike, brimming with formidable pressure, struck towards Ning Fan. Knowing he couldn’t withstand it directly, Ning Fan chose to strategically retreat.
Seeing Ning Fan retreat, Tian Xuan quietly breathed a sigh of relief. He had used a large amount of True Qi to unleash Void Breaking Palm solely to drive Ning Fan back and give himself a breather.
Taking advantage of Ning Fan’s retreat, Tian Xuan also swiftly retreated backward, widening the distance between them.
The onlookers were shocked to see the Great Elder and Ning Fan battling to a standstill.
“This kid’s strength is too much! He can tie with the Great Elder! Did he really hold back his power before?”
“Could his strength also be at the Aerial Mastery Realm intermediate stage? My god, an Aerial Mastery Realm intermediate at just over twenty years old! Such talent is monstrous!”
“This can’t just be called monstrous! Such talent is unprecedented!”
“Our Celestial Clan’s talent can’t compare to this kid! I can’t believe our talent is overshadowed by a mere human!”
…
Ning Fan levitated in the air, eyes fixed on Tian Xuan, his attention entirely focused on him. As for the others, Ning Fan didn’t consider them worth his time.
“Great Elder Tian Xuan, I hope you won’t keep obstructing us.” Ning Fan said coolly, “Xiao Qing’s wish is to return to her home. Only then will she be happy. In this Celestial Clan, she will never find joy!”
