My Way

Chapter 866: The defenses were breached, but not by Ling Wuyuan.

What exactly does it mean to fight a losing battle with an egg?
Originally, most of the onlookers couldn't explain it clearly.

But when those invisible blades from Gao Xinrong successfully struck Ling Wuyuan, everyone instantly understood what it meant to fight a losing battle with an egg.

From beginning to end.

Faced with those attacks.

Ling Wuyuan's body didn't even sway.

even.

Even the protective true energy around his body is like this...

When those invisible blades, intended to harass and feign attacks, all rushed towards Ling Wuyuan with the force of swallows returning to their nests.

Countless people immediately began to ponder in their minds: "What would I do if I faced this kind of attack?"

That's a very simple form of perspective-taking.

Everyone was trying to use this method to judge the difference in strength between themselves and Ling Wuyuan.

after all.

As long as the choices I make are better than those I make for Ling Wuyuan.

That would prove that his fighting spirit was stronger than Ling Wuyuan's.

then.

Everyone soon discovered that... while they were still racking their brains about what countermeasures to take, Ling Wuyuan's side did not have the slightest thought of dodging or defending.

In front of everyone.

Just like bathing in the spring breeze.

Ling Wuyuan withstood all of Gao Xinrong's harassing attacks without sustaining a scratch!
Throughout the entire process.

Those invisible blades clearly possessed terrifying power that was visible to the naked eye, making them a force to be reckoned with!
But when those invisible blades actually came into contact with Ling Wuyuan's protective true essence, the results were utterly pathetic!

Not only did it not cause the slightest harm to the target, but it also did not cause any damage whatsoever.

On the contrary, they themselves are like snow that has encountered high temperatures.

It vanished without a trace in an instant!
That was a clean and decisive annihilation.

It symbolizes the absolute gap in their strength...

next moment.

Mingming Ling Wuyuan did nothing.

Gao Xinrong had already successfully formed the array barrier.

An immense sense of despair.

It appeared in Gao Xinrong's heart in an instant.

Even though those harassing attacks seemed to have only one purpose—to hold back Ling Wuyuan—so that he could successfully form the array barrier.

But as mentioned before...

The power contained within those harassing attacks is definitely not insignificant!
To put it bluntly.

Just based on their lethality.

Gao Xinrong could easily take care of the vast majority of cultivators at the Divine Power Realm!

after all.

Too weak an attack.

There is simply no possibility of being able to restrain the opponent!

Therefore, Ling Wuyuan would naturally not conserve his strength for the sake of the blade.

however.

That level of attack.

However, Ling Wuyuan brazenly ignored him...

Even the opponent's protective true energy couldn't be shaken!

even.

From beginning to end.

The protective true energy surrounding the opponent's body didn't even cause the slightest ripple...

To understand.

Protective True Essence is an innate passive ability possessed by advanced cultivators.

When attacked by external forces.

There are four types of reactions in total.

1. No response.

Second: Just like the surface of a lake rippling slightly in a gentle breeze.

Three: Violent shaking.

Fourth: Successfully defeated.

Generally speaking, if your attack successfully hits the opponent, it won't even elicit a second reaction...

Then.

There's basically only one possibility for this whole thing.

That means the intensity of your attack is far from sufficient.

It doesn't even reach the threshold of harming the other party...

To truly inflict actual damage, you would need to increase your attack power by at least tens or even hundreds of times!

That's the bare minimum...

however.

The information revealed by the recent events goes beyond this.

When those attacks collided with Ling Wuyuan's protective true essence, they were instantly and cleanly annihilated...

That phenomenon occurred.

This directly indicates that what just happened cannot be described as something that can be easily resisted.

It's not a gap at all, but a much larger one!

A gap as vast as heaven and earth, an insurmountable gap...

For Gao Xinrong...

Even if he were allowed to set up the array barrier perfectly, thus gaining an advantage in terms of timing and location.

Even if you make him use all his strength, or even burn his own life force on the spot, and frantically squeeze out all his potential, he can at most unleash an attack that is twenty or thirty times stronger than the harassing attack he just had.

That will be his desperate strike!
After one blow.

He wouldn't even need anyone to continue attacking him; he'd be left with only half a life at most.

A life hanging by a thread, barely clinging to life.

If you're not careful, you could end up with permanent injuries and illnesses.

That's something that can't be helped.

Just as mentioned before.

Although the main purpose of those attacks was to harass and prevent the target from prematurely destroying the array barrier, that does not mean that those harassing attacks were purely for show.

The intensity of those attacks was by no means low...

for this.

Gao Xinrong himself was well aware of this.

Even some onlookers could see it.

Therefore, at this moment, Gao Xinrong realized with despair that even if he tried his best, he probably would not be able to cause Ling Wuyuan the slightest harm.

That's an overwhelming numerical difference.

It's like an insurmountable chasm.

The opponent's defense is far greater than his own attack power.

While my own maneuvers were incredibly smooth and fluid, they couldn't inflict the slightest damage on my opponent...

It can't break through the defenses!!

It can't break through the defenses at all!!

After realizing this.

Although Gao Xinrong's attacks were completely unable to break through Ling Wuyuan's defenses.

But he himself automatically broke down...

"impossible!!"

"How are you so strong?!"

"It seems you possess some kind of incredibly powerful [innate ability] that grants you formidable defense..."

In his eyes.

This is the only explanation for the matter.

otherwise.

He simply couldn't understand why, when his own strength was already close to the [Original Realm], there were still people of the same level who were dozens or even hundreds of times stronger than him. Was that reasonable?

That's completely unreasonable!

There is absolutely no logic to it!

As someone who considered himself to be close to the limit in the [Divine Power Realm], if Ling Wuyuan was only three to five times stronger than him, he would not think there was anything wrong with it. He would simply say, "There are always people stronger than me. I never thought there would be someone of the same level who could be so much stronger than me..."

But you are actually dozens or even hundreds of times stronger than him...

no doubt.

This is absolutely outrageous!!
It goes beyond simply being considered "extraordinary" in a literal sense.

It's like a story of an urban martial arts master descending from the mountain, a heartthrob from the school, and a top soldier encountering a wild, super alien, fighting with all their might but unable to harm a single hair on its head...
