Chapter 352 - Dragon-Subduing Strike, Flawless
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Boom! Boom!
The two moves of the Dragon-Subduing Strike had different targets.
The storm raised by “Dragon Flies” was aimed at the Holy Fire guards who had flames popping up from their eyebrows. It knocked away dozens of people next to Fang La and made them vomit blood.
The ice dragon formed by his other fist was simply aimed at Fang La.
Hum!
Faced with Ji Ye’s attack, Fang La waved his Holy Fire Badge, and a fiery pillar descended from the sky and collided with the ice dragon that was swooping over.
Splash!
The ice and the fire instantly had an intense collision.
The hot mist triggered by the collision made it impossible for the soldiers and even Commanders at the edge to step into the battlefield as reinforcements!
Ji Ye’s attack had been additionally supported by the Flood Dragon Jade Pendant, and Fang La’s Holy Fire Badge had dimmed because it had dealt with the attacks of the Iron Armored Warship dragon and the muddy dragons. It only had a little bit of liquid white flames left inside.
Therefore, although it successfully destroyed the ice dragon, the pure True Qi of the Dragon-Subduing Strike approached Fang La’s head and even squashed his white crown that had fiery patterns.
However, when the True Qi was about to press further, Fang La’s robe fluttered and directed the power to brush past his body and hit the ground.
Boom!
Although the Dragon-Subduing Strike caused a huge pit on the ground, indicating its great destructiveness, it completely missed its target. It was a move similar to “Universal Shifting”!
“The power of shifting imposes a greater influence on True Qi than my Transcendent understanding of techniques does… If I can get Universal Shifting, it will be easier for me to become Transcendent!”
Realizing that, Ji Ye moved his left hand back and canceled the attack on those guards while he was still falling.
Instead, he slapped Fang La with both of his hands.
This time, he didn’t unleash his True Qi but simply smashed Fang La’s chest with his real hand. He had performed Dragon Rages, the most unstoppable move in the Dragon-Subduing Strike.
“Hula!”
Faced with Ji Ye’s attack from such a short distance, Fang La changed his expression and realized that he couldn’t handle it with Universal Shifting. So, he simply put the Holy Fire Badge in front of Ji Ye’s fists.
Pa!
Ji Ye also changed his expression when his fist hit the Holy Fire Badge that had already dimmed.
“Huh?”
The Dragon-Subduing Strike that was boosted by the Flawless Yin and Yang Sutra was powerful enough to shatter the staffs and sabers weighing hundreds of kilograms into pieces.
Even so, the Holy Fire Badge wasn’t damaged at all after it was hit. Instead, Ji Ye simply felt that the True Qi and Dragon Aura from his hands were both absorbed by the badge that felt like a vortex.
Boom!
Following that, the Holy Fire Badge, which had already dimmed, quickly glittered as if it had been charged, and a vague dragon shape appeared from inside.
Ji Ye remembered that the golden ship that he occupied earlier had a feature to transform other kinds of powers into Holy Fire!
Apparently, the Holy Fire Badge must’ve been made of similar materials, if not more advanced ones, than the golden ship was.
Not only had the badge weathered through his attack, but it could even absorb and convert the power of the Dragon-Subduing Strike, which was quite unstoppable.
It could even fight back!
Hum!
Ji Ye attempted to loosen his hands that were “charging” the badge, only to find that the fiery dragon inside the Holy Fire Badge flew at him the moment he did that.
Then, a dragon head that was glowing with a high-temperature spread out of the Holy Fire Badge towards his arms!
With his senses granted by True Seer, Ji Ye could tell that his arms would be burnt by the flames in several seconds even though he had the Sunbathing talent.
Hum!
After the Holy Fire Badge blocked Ji Ye’s attack and made it impossible for Ji Ye to leave with the counterattacking fire, flames popped on the center of Fang La’s eyebrows again, and Ji Ye was reflected in them.
“Your Majesty!”
“Protect His Majesty!”
“Kill the man who has desecrated the Lord of Light!”
At the same time, the Holy Fire guards who weren’t affected by the power of “Dragon Flies” shouted and surrounded Ji Ye from all directions.
“Roar… Roar… Roar… Roar… Roar… Roar…”
At the critical moment, in the center of the foggy battlefield, six consecutive dragon roars echoed. Six streams of dragon-shaped auras spread out with a huge amount of fog as if they were real dragons.
It was exactly Riding Six Dragons, the move that could not be performed until one became Flawless with the Dragon-Subduing Strike.
When he was caught in the enemy camp and faced with dozens of enemies including an Extraordinary Rank-9 Quasi Commander who had a weapon that contained Transcendent power, Ji Ye finally broke the last bottleneck of the Dragon-Subduing Strike and really made the martial art “Flawless”!
“Not good!”
Two of the six streams of dragon-shaped auras swept at the guards and pushed them back, and the other four were all aimed at Fang La.
Even though Fang La had diverted one of them with “Universal Shifting” and blocked the second one with the Holy Fire Badge, he was still hit in the back by the third stream.
Pew!
He instantly had blood on his lips, and the flames at the center of his eyebrows dispersed. Ji Ye’s reflection was broken.
If the guards who had been knocked away by “Dragon Flies” earlier hadn’t run back crazily or risked their lives to block the remaining power of the Dragon-Subduing Strike, the Saint Master of the South would’ve been heavily wounded, if not killed. After all, the Dragon-Subduing Strike had become Flawless in two aspects.
“Your Majesty, go!”
The Holy Fire guards, ignoring their own heavy wounds, spoke with devotion and zeal in their eyes. Flames popped up on their bodies and burnt their clothes and armors.
However, there was no sense of pain on their faces at all. They simply shouted “the Holy Fire burns my body and illuminates the world” and jumped at Ji Ye. When they approached him, they blew themselves up into flames that had the stench of blood!
“…”
After hearing what the guards said, Fang La, who had blood flowing on his lips, didn’t hesitate at all.
To be more precise, the moment he realized that he couldn’t block Ji Ye who had just made a breakthrough on the battlefield, the Saint Master of the South already retreated to the rear of his army with the Holy Fire Badge!
“Huh?”
Faced with the Holy Fire guards that were coming at him from all directions, Ji Ye frowned.
It was impossible for him to fly now that he had run out of Dragon Aura. Because they had surrounded him, he couldn’t use Distance Reduction either.
Besides, the white flames caused by their self-explosions were rather threatening even for him.
Therefore, Ji Ye had to pause for a moment to deal with them.
Splash!
Abundant blue light emanated from his body and gathered into a blue gale that blew the flames caused by the self-explosions back at the soldiers who were further away.
It was Ice and Fire Wind, the technique he created when he reached Extraordinary Rank-8!
However, by the time he finished dealing with all the suicide attacks, Ji Ye had already lost sight of Fang La.
