Chapter 1357: What Kind of Logic Is That?

At the beginning, in the eyes of Mingchen, Tianyu was nothing more than a lowly ant; it was only because the other party had some use that he interacted with him.

Later, Tianyu's sincere efforts caused him to change his opinion to a certain extent, but deep down, he still looked down upon the other party.

Even when he saw Tianyu earlier and saw the other party's cultivation base advancing by leaps and bounds, reaching the Integration Initial Stage.

He was only surprised for a fleeting moment and did not take it too much to heart.

Unexpectedly...

Tianyu had actually been hiding his strength all along.

His strength had actually become powerful to such a degree.

Based on the combat power he was now displaying, he had already surpassed him, a Prince of the Mermaid Clan!

He was the only son of the Mermaid Empress and a Top-tier Prodigy of the Mermaid Clan.

Yet now, he had been surpassed by an ant from the Black Scale Lineage whom he had always looked down upon!

This made his mood extremely complicated.

While feeling fortunate, he was also filled with jealousy.

What he felt fortunate about was that the stronger Tianyu's strength was, the more hope there was to defeat Jiayue, and only then would they have a chance to survive.

What he was jealous of was, how precious must a fortuitous encounter be to allow Tianyu's strength to advance by leaps and bounds to this extent?

Such a precious fortuitous encounter was actually wasted on a lowly cultivator of the Black Scale Lineage.

Why was he unable to encounter such a precious opportunity?

Even a lowly Black Scale Lineage cultivator like Tianyu could advance by leaps and bounds like this, which shows just how powerful this opportunity is.

If he had obtained it, wouldn't he have taken off?

"Daoist Friend Tianyu's combat power is actually this strong!"

Biyan'er looked at the figure in the battlefield who was clashing head-on with Jiayue without falling into the slightest disadvantage, a look of shock appearing on her pretty face.

Lianyin pursed her lips, but her eyes were filled with undisguisable joy, "This guy has hidden himself too deeply."

On the other side.

Many Sea Giant cultivators were also plunged into shock; the shock in their hearts at this moment was even more intense than that of Mingchen and Biyan'er.

As fellow clansmen, they knew better than anyone just how strong Jiayue was.

From the moment Jiayue stepped onto the path of cultivation, she displayed astonishing cultivation speed and combat potential.

With a momentum of sweeping everything aside, she crushed everything along the way until her current cultivation.

From the time she stepped onto the path of cultivation until now, throughout her journey, there had never been a cultivator of the same level who could last more than a hundred breaths in her hands.

And now...

A cultivator from the Mermaid Clan's Black Scale Lineage.

Was actually challenging her across levels with an Integration Late Stage cultivation base!

How could they not be shocked by this?

"This guy..."

Lie Kong stared fixedly at Tianyu, a lingering fear in his heart.

Previously, he was still thinking about how to kill Tianyu to avenge the fellow clansmen who died unjustly at Tianyu's hands.

Thinking about it now.

It was fortunate that he hadn't been able to spare the time back then.

Otherwise...

His corpse would probably be cold by now.

Boom~

Under the gaze of everyone, Wang Jianqiang and Jiayue clashed with another punch.

Both of them retreated simultaneously.

Jiayue stared at Wang Jianqiang, her beautiful eyes shimmering with strange light, "For so many years, in battles at the same level, I have always been like a hot knife through butter, and I have never been challenged across levels, let alone fought so arduously."

"You are very strong."

Upon hearing this, Wang Jianqiang smiled, "You haven't seen me at my strongest yet."

While speaking, he threw out another punch.

The Dang Kong Power erupted.

The space around Jiayue instantly stagnated, and Jiayue's body stagnated along with it.

She and everything around her seemed to have turned into a vivid sand painting.

Her expression was one of shock.

The blue light on her body surged rapidly, enveloping her entire being.

The next moment.

That stagnated space suddenly shook violently for an instant.

An indescribable force of vibration spread out in an instant.

The blue light covering Jiayue instantly collapsed and scattered, just like a sand painting being shaken apart.

Puchi~

Jiayue's figure shot backward, her internal organs feeling as if they were about to shatter, and fresh blood slid from the corner of her lips, dripping down from the air.

Seeing this scene.

The group of Sea Giant cultivators widened their eyes in an instant.

Jiayue...

Was injured!

To have been injured by a Cultivator of the Mermaid Clan's Black Scale Lineage across cultivation realms!

"Cough, cough~"

Jiayue steadied her figure, reached out to wipe the blood from the corner of her mouth, and looked at Wang Jianqiang; not only was there no trace of anger in her beautiful eyes, but a flash of even more intense brilliance flickered within them.

A faint arc curled at the corners of her mouth, "You really have brought me too many surprises."

Wang Jianqiang sized up Jiayue and smiled, "I am also quite surprised that you could block this strike of mine."

Jiayue was not angered by Wang Jianqiang's arrogant words, a faint smile still hanging on her face, "I admire you very much."

Wang Jianqiang raised an eyebrow upon hearing this.

He had originally thought Jiayue was just saying some polite words.

But immediately after...

"Ding, Jiayue's Good and Evil Value has increased. Current Good and Evil Value: 80."

The hell?

Wang Jianqiang was stunned.

What is the situation?

Aren't they enemies?

And he had just injured the other party in public...

This Good and Evil Value not only didn't decrease, but it increased by so much in an instant!

This was the first time he had encountered such a situation since activating the system.

Could it be that this Jiayue has some special hobby?

"Come again!"

Just at this moment, Jiayue suddenly spoke.

Immediately after, she charged toward Wang Jianqiang once more.

Wang Jianqiang instantly snapped back to his senses.

He mobilized his physical strength, continued to activate Dharma Heaven and Earth and Pure Yang Power, and with the Great Five Elements Fighting Saint Method, he unleashed power sufficient to split mountains and break peaks with every gesture.

The blue light on Jiayue's body grew increasingly intense, and the power in her swinging fists and kicks was not the least bit weaker.

The two's attacks collided time and again, their speed reaching the extreme.

It was just like two streaks of light, constantly separating, colliding, separating, and colliding again...

At a certain moment.

Wang Jianqiang's fist clenched abruptly.

The spirit patterns beneath his skin gathered toward his fist once more.

Dang Kong Power erupted again.

Jiayue was once again frozen in mid-air.

Feeling this familiar, powerful force, a deep blue luster flashed in Jiayue's beautiful eyes.

"Giant Spirit True Body!"

She let out a cold shout, and the blue light on her body spread wildly.

Her physique, which was originally nearly three zhang tall, continued to rise, finally stopping its growth only after reaching nearly six zhang.

The Giant Spirit True Body is the supreme inheritance secret technique within the Sea Giant race.

The increase in size from manifesting the Giant Spirit True Body is different from the increase in size from simply stimulating Bloodline Power.

For every zhang the Giant Spirit True Body grows, the physical strength increases significantly.

Although Jiayue's physique had only increased to a height of six zhang.

Her physical strength and power had more than doubled.

Jiayue's figure shook.

A tyrannical force spread out, and that strange power that had stiffened the surrounding space actually began to loosen under the scouring of this force.

Hum~

The next moment.

A strange, vibrating force erupted.

Jiayue's figure trembled, then returned to normal.

This time, she had actually withstood the Dang Kong Power completely unscathed!

Jiayue looked at Wang Jianqiang and spoke slowly, "The power of this strike of yours is indeed very strong, but wanting to defeat me relying solely on this method is still not quite enough."

"Do you have any other methods?"

"I want to see if you can bring me more surprises."

I don't know if it was Wang Jianqiang's illusion, but he actually saw a hint of anticipation in Jiayue's eyes.

This woman...

What kind of brain circuit does she have?

Could she really have some special hobby?

Wang Jianqiang felt a sense of oddity in his heart.

A faint smile appeared on his face, "Want more surprises? I will make you very surprised."

"I hope that when the time comes, you won't be too surprised!"
