Under One Person: Please Call Me Golden Flash

Chapter 291 Facing the Pill Devourer!

Amidst the swaying shadows of the trees, Yang Lie, using the force of Zhao Zhen's palm strike, spread out like ink wash, completely merging into the dark corner where moonlight and shadow intertwined.

The Illusionary Body Barrier, the Tang Clan's signature concealment technique, was used by Yang Lie with unparalleled skill, as if he were an integral part of the darkness.

The air fell into a deathly silence, even the sounds of clashing weapons and booming energy from the battlefield below seemed to be cut off, leaving only the rustling of leaves and the faint sounds of each other's heartbeats and breaths.

Lu Huizhong quietly retreated to another thick branch, her sharp gaze sweeping over her surroundings, her brows furrowed.

She knew Yang Lie's talent and determination at this moment, and she also knew that Zhao Zhen's strength was unfathomable, but the existence of Dan Shi made this "sparring" full of unpredictable dangers.

Zhao Zhen stood still, the relaxed smile on her face faded, but her eyes remained calm.

He didn't rush into the shadows; instead, he slowly closed his eyes.

The protective Qi flows continuously, with a pure white light contained within, like an ancient temple bronze bell, steady and profound.

He doesn't rely solely on his eyesight; his combat experience, the subtle fluctuations in Qi flow, and the changes in every scent carried by the wind all contribute to building an invisible battlefield map in his mind.

"Brother Yang, the Tang Clan's Illusionary Body Barrier is indeed exquisite, but if you think you can find an opportunity to strike based on this, you are underestimating the gap between us."

Zhao Zhen's voice wasn't loud, but it clearly pierced through the night and reached Yang Lie's ears, who was hiding in the shadows.

There was no response, only a poison needle as thin as a cow's hair, which shot out silently from the gap in the tree canopy above Zhao Zhen's head. The tip of the needle was a dark blue, and it only flashed a barely perceptible starlight in the moonlight!

The needle was coated with a secret anesthetic made by the Tang Clan. Although it was not a deadly poison, it could instantly cause numbness and stiffness in a person's limbs.

Just before the poisoned needle was about to touch Zhao Zhen's hair, he slightly shifted his body, and the needle grazed his temple and pierced the tree trunk behind him with a soft "thud".

Zhao Zhen didn't even open her eyes.

Immediately afterwards, seven or eight dark lights appeared from different angles, like a swarm of bees dancing wildly, sealing off all of Zhao Zhen's space to move around!

They were all poisoned iron caltrops, angled cunningly, and moved at astonishing speeds!

This is a brilliant combination of the Tang Clan's "Whispering Steps" and "Hundred Solutions to Hidden Weapons"!

Zhao Zhen finally made a move!

His body was as still as a mountain, yet his feet moved as fast as a ghost.

He left a faint golden afterimage behind him, and his true form appeared three steps to the left, his movements fluid and natural.

All the hidden weapons struck the trees and ground around where he had just stood, landing with extreme precision, forming a perfect "cage".

Unfortunately, there was no prey left in the cage.

"What a fine 'whispering step'! You've truly solidified the foundation of the Tang Clan!"

Zhao Zhen finally opened his eyes, his gaze sharp as lightning, instantly locking onto Yang Lie's hiding place, where his Qi had slightly fluctuated due to his continuous attacks.

Before he finished speaking, Zhao Zhen had already shot out like an arrow!
There was no technique involved; it was just an ordinary slap!

The illusion barrier was forcibly torn apart!

Forced by the palm strike, Yang Lie's figure was forced to reveal itself. He crossed his arms to block and used his feet to retreat quickly and dissipate the force.

"Bang!" The palms and arms collided, producing a muffled sound.

Even though Yang Lie had dissipated most of the force, his arm was still sore and numb, as if it had been hit by a red-hot iron.

He was horrified. Zhao Zhen's Qi was not only incredibly powerful, but also carried an unshakeable solidity, like a human-shaped mountain!
"Humph!"

Yang Lie gritted his teeth, knowing that long-range harassment was pointless, and the opportunity for close-quarters assassination was even harder to find.

Zhao Zhen's perception and movement skills far exceeded his expectations!
Thinking of this, a fierce glint flashed in Yang Lie's eyes. He suddenly flicked his hands, and a dozen thin, almost invisible colorless threads instantly appeared in front of him, weaving into a net.

This is the Tang Clan's unique "hidden thread"!
At the same time, his movements became even more rapid as he circled Zhao Zhen at high speed, trying to find a weakness in his defenses.

"Instant Strike" is back!
This time, however, it was no longer a tentative, even strike, but a combination of feints and real attacks!

Dozens of fists, palms, and fingers rained down on Zhao Zhen's vital points, interspersed with several deadly hidden weapons aimed directly at his vital organs!
Each strike was accompanied by a sharp whistling sound as it cut through the wind!
Faced with this dazzling attack, Zhao Zhen did not choose to dodge. The protective true qi on his body, which had been condensed to the extreme, suddenly released outward, like an indestructible shield!

Bang bang bang!

The dense attacks struck Zhao Zhen's protective Qi like rain pattering on banana leaves, yet they could not budge it in the slightest!

Those few cunning and deadly hidden weapons were also steadily blocked by the protective true qi, without even causing a ripple.

Zhao Zhen's true qi was like a bottomless, icy pool, remaining unmoved despite the hailstones pelting down.

"That's it?"

Zhao Zhen's voice carried a hint of barely perceptible disappointment. His figure suddenly froze, and his right palm covered his true qi. He struck out with what appeared to be extremely slow speed, but was actually extremely fast. Ignoring the numerous illusory images and silk threads that blocked his way, he struck directly at Yang Lie's true body!
This palm strike seemed to stir up the airflow in the surrounding space. Yang Lie felt as if he were locked by an invisible giant wave, with nowhere to escape!
His pupils contracted sharply, and his hands instantly formed a mysterious and complex hand seal. In the next instant, Yang Lie's aura became extremely dangerous and eerie!

A faint, almost imperceptible, yet chillingly blue aura that sent shivers down Lu Huizhong's spine quietly condensed around Yang Lie!
This aura... it's from Dan Shi!

The Tang Clan's incurable poison!
"Yang Lie! Stop!"

Lu Huizhong shouted urgently, her heart pounding in her throat.

As a member of the Tang Clan, Lu Huizhong knew better than anyone the power and danger of Dan Shi!

The moment he sensed the change in the atmosphere around him, Zhao Zhen's eyes lost their ease for the first time, and a terrifying glint suddenly flashed in them!

"It's come to this after all... It seems we have no choice but to take drastic measures!"

Zhao Zhen did not retract his outstretched hand, nor did he choose to defend against the Dan Shi. Instead, he maintained the same posture and frantically poured the true qi in his body into the protective true qi around his body.

As a continuous stream of true qi poured in, the protective true qi around Zhao Zhen also expanded continuously, eventually forming a huge sphere that firmly protected Zhao Zhen at the center.

Upon seeing this, a hint of disdain flashed in Yang Lie's eyes.

Let alone mere protective Qi, even the Golden Light Mantra of the Celestial Master's Mansion would be absolutely unable to withstand the invasion of Dan Shi!

Trying to defend against the pill's devouring power with protective Qi is laughable!
As Zhao Zhen's figure drew closer and closer, showing no sign of stopping, and just as he was about to collide with the Dan Shi he had set up around him, Yang Lie's brows gradually relaxed.

The Dan Shi had already begun to infiltrate Zhao Zhen's protective true qi. If he took another step forward, the Dan Shi would directly touch his body.

So what if he's Jin Xiao Lei Jun? In the end, he still fell to the Dan Shi of my Tang Clan.
Just as Yang Lie was about to remove the pill, what happened before his eyes made his pupils shrink sharply!
