Chapter 204: How to Deal with Someone Stronger than Yourself
Lu Yu's face changed drastically in the face of Lu Hongwei's attack.
His underwear would be destroyed!
Rumble~ The corridor shook violently. The alloy corridor caught within the attack range of the Desolate Stele vanished completely, revealing a passage full of dirt with a tendency to collapse.
"Is he dead?" Lu Hongwei looked at the empty corridor, puzzled.
Boom~ Crash! From the upper left of Lu Hongwei, a dirt pillar compressed by great force pierced through the concrete and alloy walls, descending towards Lu Hongwei.
The Spiritual Power on Lu Hongwei's body exploded, destroying the alloy, concrete, and dirt pillar in front of him. A dirt pillar protruded from the ceiling of the silver-white alloy corridor, forcibly replacing part of the wall with soil.
Boom! Lu Yu's figure dropped from above the destroyed corridor.
He didn't withstand the Desolate Stele's damage. At the moment of attack, he broke through the overhead wall with brute force, jumped up to avoid it, and saved his underwear.
Lu Hongwei waved his right hand, gathering a mass of Spiritual Power into a Crescent Halberd, "Are you a Martial Cultivator of Body Refinement?"
Waving the Crescent Halberd with his right hand, he easily broke through the corridor wall, pointed his right arm forward, and aimed the Crescent Halberd at Lu Yu, saying, "Even with suppressed Spiritual Power, you can explode with great strength. It seems this is why you can contend with the Qi Sea Realm at the Qi Manipulation Realm."
"But I'm not one of those low-level Qi Sea Realm. Even if you want to challenge across realms, you must find the right opponent!"
The Crescent Halberd slashed out a solid blade light. Lu Yu shifted, attempting to dodge, but the blade split into eight, sealing all escape routes, relentlessly slashing towards Lu Yu.
Seeing this, Lu Yu had no choice but to face the blade lights head-on, infusing Qi Blood into his fist, his skin shimmering with a golden oily sheen.
Bam bam bam~ The blade lights shattered by Lu Yu, the sharp lights barely breaking his skin, leaving a few scars on his fists, which healed before they could bleed.
Lu Hongwei noticed the change in his wounds, his expression tensing up, wondering if such defense was truly something a human could possess.
Seeing the dissipated blade lights around Lu Yu, Lu Hongwei's Spiritual Power surged within him, "Arc Slash!"
Without warning, Lu Yu's eyes lit up with a bright arc. The arc hit Lu Yu's chest, leaving a blood mark from his shoulder to his abdomen.
Blood sprinkled on the ground, forming beads that weren't stained by dirt, pulsating as if drawn by some force, wanting to return to Lu Yu's body, but the force wasn't enough to pull the beads back.
Lu Yu glanced at his wound, looked expressionlessly at Lu Hongwei, the ground under his feet suddenly shattering as he rapidly approached Lu Hongwei.
He aimed a powerful flying kick at Lu Hongwei's chest.
Lu Hongwei saw Lu Yu suddenly disappear, his face changed, and an exquisite protective spirit armor appeared on his body, immediately bombarded by a powerful attack.
He felt the Spiritual Power within him rapidly draining away.
Bang! Lu Hongwei was kicked away, crashing through the alloy wall at the corridor corner, leaving a dark hole…
"Heh~ Just like that." Lu Hongwei came out, clutching the edge of the wall, his face pale, almost kicked breathless, yet still jeering at Lu Yu.
"Clashing of Golden Weapons!"
Lu Hongwei clenched his left hand, the veins at his temples throbbed crazily, his Spiritual Power depleted rapidly.
Suddenly, numerous Crescent Halberds emerged around Lu Yu, raining down like a storm, frantically piercing Lu Yu, each capable of breaking through his defense.
The Astral Qi surrounding his body, just recovered, was shattered by the Crescent Halberds, unable to intercept these attacks.
The golden oily shine on Lu Yu's body flickered, the Crescent Halberds' power reduced by thirty percent upon contact, and the Golden Armor Spirit Array beneath his skin emitted a spiritual light… With layered defenses, the power of Clashing of Golden Weapons was reduced to the limit.
Even so, Lu Yu was still quite injured.
Feeling his Spiritual Power consumed more than half, Lu Hongwei stopped attacking.
Whew~ Just as the attack ceased, a figure burst out from the dissipating spiritual light, a blood-stained fist rapidly enlarging in Lu Hongwei's eyes.
Bam! Lu Hongwei's figure was once again beaten into the wall, crashing through dirt and disappearing into the dark hole.
In the next instant, a light burst from the hole, and Lu Yu swiftly tore off a piece of alloy wall. At the same time, the Spiritual Power within him flowed back, quickly forming a Golden Armor Spirit Array, which imprinted onto the torn alloy wall.
Boom! Lu Yu, under immense force, slid back over ten meters before stopping, the makeshift shield in his hand turning to dust, scattering into the air.
The over ten-meter corridor was completely destroyed, the ground soaked with water-logged soil.
Lu Hongwei walked out from the widened hole, still unscathed but looking slightly pale.
On the other hand, Lu Yu was covered in injuries, left with only a precarious pair of underwear.
Although appearing dominant, Lu Hongwei felt no joy. If they were in the God Martial World, he could suppress Lu Yu. Even if Lu Yu's defense was strong and power great, under his suppression, he'd only be on the receiving end until eventually worn down.
But in reality, the first question he had to worry about was what to face Lu Yu with once his Spiritual Power ran out.
He didn't expect that dealing with a Qi Manipulation Realm Martial Cultivator could be so troublesome.
