Chapter 3904: Severely Wounded Physical Body

~7 min read 1,254 words

"One palm isn't enough, then give me two more!"

Thinking that, it immediately slapped out two more palms in succession.

These two palms weren't as large as the previous one, but they were swift, instantly catching up to the earlier palm. The three palms overlapped, and the Mountain-Pushing King's palm force slammed down.

Then the three palm imprints merged into one, pressing toward Ye Liuyun and his companions.

"I'm going!"

Ye Liuyun let out a startled shout; he tried to recall the Skeleton Puppet, but it was too late—the palm had already struck.

With a "Bang" boom, the Hédào Wǔchóng Skeleton Puppet raised its shield in defense, yet the Mountain-Pushing King's palm shattered it outright.

Moreover, the palm that had merged the three imprints suddenly accelerated in its descent, crashing straight onto the Formation above.

Ye Liuyun let his War God Armor surface just beneath his skin, keeping it concealed for now. Perhaps their Formation could withstand the blow, making exposure of the armor unnecessary.

But as soon as he thought that, another "Bang" reverberated, and the wave of True Essence collision surged violently into the Formation.

The Formation was instantly blasted apart, and True Essence swept toward them.

Fortunately, the Formation still bore most of that palm's force; otherwise, Yan Tang and the other Demon Race would have been pulverized into mush.

"Puff, puff…"

Several members of the Demon Race were still shaken by the True Essence shockwave, spitting blood.

Yan Tang had preemptively donned a set of black armor, blocking the True Essence impact.

Ye Liuyun's cultivation level was the lowest, so he was also blasted away. Yet his armor shielded his body, and his Physical Body was already robust, so he merely coughed up blood without serious injury.

"This palm is too powerful! This is only three palms overlapped; if there were two more, my War God Armor might not even block the strike."

Ye Liuyun, still shaken, weighed his options in his mind: "If it comes to it, I'll unleash Time Power and finish it off quickly!"

Even if I reveal my strength, I must not let it unleash another palm! That palm could indeed shatter an entire Xingqiu, and might harm others.

Just as the Sealing Demon Tablet surged toward the Mountain-Pushing King again, it suddenly teleported, appearing before Ye Liuyun and his group, and launched another palm.

The distance was too short; startled, Ye Liuyun quickly released a Hédào Wǔchóng puppet to block the attack.

But because of the close range, the True Essence collision of the intersecting palms flung Ye Liuyun and those Demon Race members into the air again.

Some Demon Race members were already lying on the ground, unable to rise, their fate uncertain.

The puppet Ye Liuyun had sent out was once again blasted apart!

Ye Liuyun was also shaken so violently that his organs churned; with a "Wa" sound, he vomited a large mouthful of clotted blood.

At this moment, the Mountain-Pushing King also felt the strain. It hadn't expected Ye Liuyun to have such a high‑rank puppet. So, in close combat, it clashed palms with the puppet, but its palm force lacked momentum, causing it to be shaken as well.

Now it needed to regulate its breath, to smooth the erratic True Essence, before it could strike again.

Ye Liuyun simply raised his hand and tossed out nine Hédào Wǔchóng Skeleton Puppets, letting them entangle the Mountain-Pushing King to death.

With his extensive combat experience, he saw that the opponent's first palm was so strong because it had charge and momentum. The second palm, though faster, was clearly far weaker than the first.

Of course, a smaller force is relative. Without the War God Armor, he wouldn't have been able to block that strike.

His War God Armor is of the Seventh Stage of He Dao rank; although it hasn't fully unleashed its defensive power, it should suffice to block a Fifth Stage of He Dao attack.

Yet he still coughed up blood. This indicates that the Mountain-Pushing King's palm force is at the Sixth Stage of He Dao level.

One puppet certainly couldn't block it, so Ye Liuyun immediately deployed nine to swarm it.

The tactic proved effective; the nine puppets engaged in close melee, drastically reducing the Mountain-Pushing Palm's power, allowing only a feeble resistance.

But Ye Liuyun feared it possessed other abilities, so he immediately employed Time Power to freeze time, then placed a Slave Seal on it, claiming it outright.

To prevent Yan Tang from noticing a flaw, he let the Mountain-Pushing King spar with the puppets twice more, then retreated to locate his clone, having the clone first enter the Space World.

After he restored the Time Flow Speed, the Mountain-Pushing King pretended to be outmatched, fled after a few exchanges, and the nine puppets immediately gave chase.

Ye Liuyun relaxed, flopped onto the ground in a sprawling "big" shape, breathing heavily, eyes closed, resting.

"Fortunately, they lack any skill; otherwise they'd have been killed by these evil things!" he thought to himself.

At that moment his Divine Sense noticed that when he was struck by the True Essence aftershock, those Demon Race members were also shaken.

But Yan Tang was unscathed at this point, already standing up.

Yan Tang's battle armor was clearly of a high rank, untouched by the Mountain-Pushing King's blow, and he still held his war halberd.

It seemed he had given his all earlier, employing every usable treasure to block the Mountain-Pushing King's strike.

The Demon Race's Physical Bodies are stronger than ordinary humans, and Yan Tang's cultivation is high, so it's normal he wasn't injured by the shock.

However, he now stood still, seeming hesitant; he lifted his leg to approach Ye Liuyun, but recoiled the moment he moved.

"Hmm?" Ye Liuyun's mind flickered.

"Could it be that..."

He suddenly guessed that Yan Tang was wavering on whether to act against him.

He had fought alongside the Demon Race these past days, letting his guard slack a bit. During that recent danger, he had ignored them.

Now it seemed Yan Tang still coveted the people and power around him.

He closed his eyes, waiting to see what Yan Tang would do.

Yan Tang was also deeply conflicted at this moment.

Ye Liuyun was wounded; this was his best chance to act.

But Ye Liuyun's Sea of Consciousness contained a Soul treasure; he dared not recklessly place the Soul inside.

Wounding Ye Liuyun was unlikely. He had withstood two heavy blows without fatal injury, merely lacking combat ability temporarily.

Thus, whether Soul or Physical Body, he couldn't act. A Magic Vine was nearby; if he couldn't subdue Ye Liuyun at once, the vine would strike.

He was confident he could block the Magic Vine, yet still worried Ye Liuyun still held a Skeleton Puppet.

The earlier Hédào Wǔchóng Skeleton Puppets had deeply provoked Yan Tang, making him feel the strength around Ye Liuyun was overwhelming.

Ye Liuyun, seeing his hesitation, finally opened his eyes, feigning extreme weakness, lying still without rising, thereby offering him a chance to act.

When Yan Tang saw him awake, he suddenly abandoned the intention to strike, sheathed his weapon and armor, rushed over, and helped him up.

Brother Ye, are you okay? he asked concernedly.

I've suffered a bit of internal injury, it's nothing serious! Ye Liuyun said, feigning weakness.

Then hurry up and rest a bit, find someone to look after you, I'll go check on the others! Yan Tang ultimately still didn't dare to act.
