Chapter 890: Clash of Palms

“What if I defeat you in a duel?”

Ding Ling laughed.

No wonder there isn’t a single player here.

Apparently, they’ve all been chased away by Yanz Chixia.

However, this makes it convenient for him to act.

Too many people, too much gossip.

If he showed himself here, the other players would surely notice, leading to unforeseen variables.

But now, there’s no need to worry about these.

“Are you sure you want to duel me?!”

Yanz Chixia was surprised, he slowly stood up, his eyes bright, sizing Ding Ling up and down, solemnly saying:

“So young yet so steady, your Martial Arts True Qi is extremely dense, it’s clear you’re a Martial Arts Expert. To have such cultivation and fortune at your age is indeed rare. But you can’t defeat me, so you should just go back to where you came from.”

Yanz Chixia cultivates both martial arts and Daoist techniques!

His Martial Arts Cultivation has reached the Shattering Great Perfection Level.

And his Daoist cultivation is even more profound, having reached the Golden Core Great Perfection Level.

Ding Ling’s Sword Spirit was born with a pair of Spiritual Eyes, once opened, people with lower cultivation could never escape being seen through by him.

Currently, Yanz Chixia has reached Golden Core Great Perfection and is on the verge of a breakthrough.

Ding Ling estimates that in a year, Yanz Chixia might break through Golden Core Great Perfection, stepping into the Primordial Spirit Realm; only at this realm can he withstand the chaotic decline during the Lunar Eclipse of Pudu Cihang’s cultivation.

After all, Pudu Cihang’s cultivation has reached the Dharma Level!

Even if this level of cultivation severely declines, unless he’s up against a Primordial Spirit Level expert, it’s difficult to truly injure or kill him.

Thus.

Facing Yanz Chixia at this stage, Ding Ling is very confident, and because of his extraordinary ability to conceal his aura with his Martial Dao True Understanding, even Yanz Chixia can’t see through him, which further boosts his confidence.

Listening to Yanz Chixia’s words, he didn’t refute, merely smiled slightly, saying:

“Master. What if I defeat you?”

“Young man, you are truly persistent.”

Yanz Chixia’s eye twitched twice, saying:

“If you really defeat me. As long as it’s within my capabilities and doesn’t go against my principles, I can do it for you.”

“If that’s the case.”

Ding Ling’s spirit slightly lifted:

‘Master, why don’t we spar a bit.’

“Eh~~”

Yanz Chixia glanced sideways:

“I’ve made myself clear, yet you still want to challenge me?! Do you really think you can defeat me?!”

“How would we know without trying?”

“Haha…”

Yanz Chixia was amused:

“Today’s youth are truly different from the past. Some fearlessly embrace death for a night with a ghost. Some knowingly fall in love with a ghost. Now, some know they’ll be defeated by me, but still come to get beaten. Ah, strange happenings and people appear every year!”

He leapt outside with a single bound, standing firmly, gesturing casually to Ding Ling:

“Come, come, let’s have a quick battle. Once it’s over, quickly go home. This place isn’t suitable for someone like you!”

“Doesn’t the Master need weapons?”

Ding Ling, carrying a knife and sword, stood tall and dignified.

Yanz Chixia admired Ding Ling quite a bit, feeling that someone with such temperament and style was indeed rare. At least, during his younger days wandering around Jiuzhou, he had never met someone with such striking appearance or demeanor. Perhaps due to his appreciation and recognition of Ding Ling, his attitude was kind, and he laughed:

“How old are you? How old am I?! If I need to use weapons to deal with a young man like you, I might as well find a crack and crawl into it.”

“…”

Ding Ling remained silent, also leaping to land opposite Yanz Chixia:

“Master, don’t speak too confidently.”

“Haha…”

Yanz Chixia laughed:

“Sorry. I indeed spoke a bit proudly. But it’s an undeniable fact. Come on, let’s get started quickly.”

Originally, Yanz Chixia wouldn’t have such attitude or tone.

It’s mainly because recently he had been annoyed by players and Ascenders, leading him to speak harsh words to drive them away.

Only because Yanz Chixia noticed, players have incredibly thick skins!

Without harsh words!

They really wouldn’t leave!

Repeating such harsh words formed a habit.

Thus, it’s the same when dealing with Ding Ling now.

Ding Ling was initially puzzled, but after thinking about it slightly, he understood and signaled Yanz Chixia to make the first move.

Yanz Chixia laughed again:

“Haha. Interesting, interesting. I let you make the first move, intending to give you three moves. Yet you want me to strike first; what if I don’t hold back and injure you?”

“Don’t worry. If I’m injured, I won’t blame the Master.”

“Alright then.”

Yanz Chixia sighed:

“Let’s have a quick battle.”

He no longer hesitated.

Hoo hoo!

As his form shifted, a pair of palms struck towards Ding Ling’s chest.

This strike only released the power of a Grandmaster Level.

Clearly, at this moment, Yanz Chixia saw Ding Ling as merely a Martial Arts Grandmaster.

Seeing his light strike, Ding Ling realized Yanz Chixia was someone with a sharp tongue but soft heart, so he didn’t use full force, but employed slightly greater strength than Yanz Chixia, meeting his palm.

Boom!

After this palm exchange.

Yanz Chixia took three steps back.

Ding Ling stood motionless.

Yanz Chixia was stunned, then looked at Ding Ling with great admiration:

“Young man, you have Shattering Level palm power. Impressive, impressive. At your age, I was far inferior.”

His recognition of Ding Ling heightened, but he also increased his striking power:

“Take another palm from me!”

The next palm was executed with Martial Arts Shattering Middle-tier Level strength.

Obviously, he intended to force Ding Ling back with a single palm, letting Ding Ling know when to retreat.

But Ding Ling used Shattering High-tier Level palm power.

Boom!

The palms clashed once more.

After a thunderous crack.

Ding Ling remained unmoved.

Yanz Chixia, however, took six steps back to steady himself.

Staring at Ding Ling, he was quite surprised, exclaiming:

“Your power is higher than I imagined by several levels!! Remarkable!”

He praised:

“At this age, to have such power is truly outstanding. You must be an exceptionally talented young genius. But if you think this is enough to beat me, you’re still thinking wishfully.”

Two palms exchanged.

Both forced back by Ding Ling.

Yanz Chixia’s face heated up slightly.

He felt a bit embarrassed.

Thus.

The third palm, his palm power was elevated to Shattering Great Perfection level, adding a bit of Power of Thunder as well, clearly intending to strike Ding Ling away and completely disable him.

A bit of thunder wouldn’t severely injure but could paralyze the body.

Perfect timing!

Hoo hoo!

This third palm once struck, the palm wind surged, condensed into a mountain imprint, with a continuous flashing of lightning within.

Ding Ling immediately knew this time Yanz Chixia was getting serious.

Therefore, he raised his palm power to Golden Core Level, countering Yanz Chixia’s palm.

Boom!
