Chapter 986: Chapter 986
Jia Yan let out a thunderous, hearty laugh, seeming to completely shed his previously calm demeanor as he launched an offensive toward the starry sky area where the five Strong Ones proudly stood!
"Come on, let’s see if the so-called five Strong Ones, when acting together, have the strength to defeat the current me!"
Jia Yan’s attitude had always been to plan before acting, but he never lacked passion. At this moment, he did not fully understand the strength of the five Strong Ones, but that did not stop him from attacking them with all his fervor!
"This kid actually dares to attack the five of us alone; he clearly has no idea what death means. Come and meet your end!" Upon seeing Jia Yan charging toward them, Pai Lan was instantly blinded by a burst of fury-filled flames obscuring his heart and mind, and he met Jia Yan’s attack head-on.
His claws entered a state of void, as if they completely vanished from the observable universe.
This was Pai Lan’s famous unique skill, and also his strongest method of attack; using it now against Jia Yan at least proved that he treated Jia Yan as an opponent of equal stature.
The moment of contact between the two sent a terrifying shock wave pulsing in all directions through the universe, a bright battle ripple appearing in the space. Normally, the universe would not exhibit energy fluctuations from combat, but the power they wielded, the True Energy, exceeded the realm of normal physical knowledge, creating shock waves on the spot!
Just after Jia Yan blocked Pai Lan’s strike, he felt an intense murderous intent enveloping him from behind, and at the same time, a terrifying force pierced through, surrounding his entire heart area!
"Hmph!" Jia Yan scoffed lightly. Then, with a quick flex of his body, he displaced a bit of space and dodged the attack.
The one behind him was none other than Xing Wu, whose body had eerily swelled up. As a top existence among the Dragon Strong, his body should not have been that small to begin with, but at that moment, his size visibly inflated before one’s eyes, to an almost bizarre extent.
"This cultivation method I have of compressing my body, I did not expect it would be unsealed for you today!" Xing Wu’s body expanded like a balloon, and he let out a fierce shout.
"Well, I’d have to thank Star Martial Lord for his deep affection." Jia Yan was not so honorable; as the other’s body continued to grow, he sent a lightning-fast front hoof strike zooming forward, hoping to take down Xing Wu first.
Of course, the other Strong Ones would not let Jia Yan’s plan succeed. The moment his attack nearly reached Xing Wu, the presence as vast as Pai Lan intervened, apparently unlocking his own strength at that moment and becoming even more powerful.
"Jia Yan, you have violated the law of us ten Strong Ones, and now we sentence you to a hundred years imprisonment; accept your punishment obediently!" Another Strong One’s strength surged enormously, attacking directly at Jia Yan’s back.
Suddenly the five Strong Ones, having fully unleashed their powers, started attacking Jia Yan all at once.
"Despicable ten Strong Ones, are these the strongest of your Desolate Star System? To me, they are nothing more than chickens and dogs! Since you want to join forces, then go ahead, let’s see what you can do to me, Jia Yan!" The fierceness in Jia Yan’s eyes burned brighter than ever before.
He disregarded the mysterious attacker from behind with a bladed weapon, focusing his deep gaze on Pai Lan before him. Even with all their power unleashed, Jia Yan could tell that among these Strong Ones, Pai Lan was the weakest.
His two front hooves, one entangled Xing Wu’s body, while the other grappled with the Giant Hammer wielder who stood a hundred meters tall. The remaining two middle hooves wrapped around Pai Lan’s body with backward-facing spines.
His front hooves possessed the ability to assassinate, but the middle and other feet should not be underestimated either. After all, they belonged to the body of an Evolutionary Creature, and the mysteriousness and killing intent they contained was beyond what ordinary Strong Ones could imagine.
"How is it? You think the middle hooves alone can hold me? Dream on!" Pai Lan had just struck at Jia Yan and at this moment had not retreated into the indistinct subspace. With no other recourse, he could only fiercely push his claw against Jia Yan’s middle hoof, knowing that his body was more than twice Jia Yan’s size—Jia Yan’s lightning-fast front hoof attack only reached halfway up his body, at most.
However, what he did not expect was that Jia Yan’s middle hooves were not as weak as he had imagined!
He pushed his claw fiercely against one middle hoof, while the other middle hoof swiftly and stealthily pierced at his body’s side.
"Not good!" Pai Lan was startled, and in that life-and-death moment, thanks to his extensive experience, he managed to hard shift his body sideways by a hundred meters in an instant, thanks to True Energy shining on his skin.
A hundred meters was enough to dodge Jia Yan’s attack; although the middle hooves didn’t have the sharp points of front hooves, their surface spines were lined up, and if allowed to rake across the body, the sensation would be no less than being sawed.
Meanwhile, the attack that Jia Yan had ignored from behind now struck his body; the Strong One wielding the bladed weapon couldn’t contain his elation.
They could all see that Jia Yan’s fighting experience was incomparable to theirs; after all, his time spent surviving paled in comparison. Just one extension of their experienced hands could easily reveal his naivety.
