Chapter 1295: Chapter 1295

Because she was slightly closer than those companions who were healing, Tian Qi could somewhat see the figures of Ye Tian and Elder Xifeng clashing within the water mist...

She widened her eyes, staring intently at the situation between the two!

At this point, Tian Qi could no longer use the black Qi Force to cover Ye Tian... First, because Ye Tian had already used his own attack to see through Elder Xifeng’s Ice Armor; second, because she had overexerted her own strength, and since her injuries hadn’t healed, she couldn’t continue to wield the black Qi Force; third, because Ye Tian and Elder Xifeng were now in a state of close-quarters combat, her attack might accidentally harm Ye Tian...

Of course, Tian Qi was quite impressed with Ye Tian, being able to use tiny clues to find a way to break Elder Xifeng’s Absolute Defense. Such martial arts talent might not be found in one in millions!

If Ye Tian were uninjured and in full condition, facing Elder Xifeng, it would be hard to say who would win or lose, but now, having suffered serious injuries in the battle with Elder Nan Feng and with his strengths greatly diminished, facing Elder Xifeng, Ye Tian likely stood no chance of winning.

"Ye Tian... you absolutely mustn’t meet with any harm, because you are the hope of the entire Black Hole Clan..."

Since she couldn’t help Ye Tian, for Tian Qi, all she could do was pray; she hoped her voice could move the heavens and earth, allowing Ye Tian to defeat Elder Xifeng!

Apart from Tian Qi, those brothers who were healing and unable to participate in the fight also offered their blessings to Ye Tian!

"God, please, let the boss defeat this demon!"

"Yes! As long as he takes him down, the entire Southern City will be saved!"

"Kill Elder Xifeng, save the people of Southern City, save the whole of Southern City, save the Black Hole Clan, everything hinges on you, Ye Tian!"

The martial artists prayed in different ways, while Daichong, the Sect Leader of Tianmen, felt a slight bitterness.

"Ye Tian, once again, everything depends on you. Our strength isn’t enough, I’m afraid we can’t help you much. Thank you for your efforts, you must defeat the monster in front of you!"

Daichong kept muttering, at first thinking that once his injuries healed a bit, he would join the battle to ease Ye Tian’s burden.

But after witnessing Elder Xifeng’s full-strength attack, he changed his mind!

The disparity in strength between himself, Elder Xifeng, and Ye Tian was too vast. If he recklessly charged in, it would be like a rabbit barging into a battle of tigers and wolves, only to die under the swinging claws...

So, even though he was unwilling, Daichong could only accept this reality...

On the other hand, Ye Tian and Elder Xifeng exchanged blows, engaging in close combat, and gradually, a superior began to emerge!

"Whew!", "Whew!", "Whew!", "Whew!"...

Ye Tian kept panting heavily, and blood continuously oozed from his mouth.

Given Ye Tian’s injured body, coupled with not fully recovered fighting strength, being able to fight against the powerful Elder Xifeng until now was already very remarkable.

Therefore, fighting to this point, Ye Tian being unable to hold on was understandable!

However, although Ye Tian was already showing signs of exhaustion, Elder Xifeng himself was also panting heavily...

"Damn fellow... to be able to hold on until now..."

Elder Xifeng hadn’t expected Ye Tian to be so tenacious, such a Ye Tian was beyond proper description.

The exhausted and wounded Ye Tian, whether in speed, strength, stamina, or attack precision, was far inferior to himself, yet this opponent had dragged him into a hard battle.

Although Elder Xifeng had only sustained some minor wounds, these small injuries made him both ashamed and angry!

His pride was hurt and coupled with the exhaustion from the fight with Ye Tian, even if he killed Ye Tian now, he wouldn’t have the energy to go to the underground city of Southern City to tidy up the aftermath, and continue to activate the Spirit Vein Stone for his grand plan!

It’s precisely because of this that Elder Xifeng felt particularly resentful towards the current Ye Tian!

"Ye Tian, thank you for giving me a lesson, allowing me to know I’m not invincible in this world! Don’t worry, I will deeply appreciate your reminder, and after killing you, when facing other opponents, I will be cautious, not underestimating them again!"

Elder Xifeng said coldly, as he temporarily refrained from releasing his power, the icy mist surrounding him and Ye Tian gradually dissipated.

Ye Tian silently looked at Elder West Wind, just as Elder West Wind had said, it was already a miracle that he could hold on until now.

At this moment, Ye Tian found it difficult to even move his steps, let alone continue fighting...

However, facing the imposing Elder West Wind, Ye Tian showed no trace of fear; instead, he calmly said, "Elder West Wind, although I don’t have much strength left now, I fear it won’t be that easy for you to kill me, will it?"

"What? Ye Tian, how could you possibly struggle now?"

Naturally, Elder West Wind did not believe Ye Tian’s words. In his hand, a gigantic ice blade formed once again, and as he spoke, the ice blade was already smashing towards Ye Tian’s head!

"I want to see how you dodge this blade!"

Elder West Wind said harshly. Although Ye Tian showed a bitter expression, he remained unflustered.

Just as Elder West Wind’s ice blade was about to hit Ye Tian, his figure suddenly flickered, allowing him to evade Elder West Wind’s ice blade attack.

Elder West Wind was taken aback. Given Ye Tian’s current physical state, his staggering steps, he shouldn’t have been able to dodge his ice blade...

While Elder West Wind was still puzzled, he felt a sharp pain in his abdomen. It turned out that after Ye Tian evaded his attack, he delivered a ferocious kick.

The kick was exceptionally fierce; even with the Power of Death protecting his body, Elder West Wind felt intense pain in his internal organs. The powerful kick even sent Elder West Wind’s body flying. This text is hosted at NoveI-Fire.ɴet

Elder West Wind let out a miserable scream, but Ye Tian immediately leaped into the air, quickly reaching the airborne Elder West Wind, and then delivered a fierce punch to Elder West Wind’s stomach!

Elder West Wind’s entire body sunk downwards, crashing onto the ground, and with a crisp sound, his entire body sank into the ground.

The blow from Ye Tian had dealt significant damage to Elder West Wind’s body. Even someone as strong as Elder West Wind spat blood. Ye Tian wanted to capitalize on his victory and attack fiercely, but unexpectedly, even though Elder West Wind was severely injured, he still managed to struggle out of the ground...

Although he temporarily avoided Ye Tian’s lethal blow, Elder West Wind was already covered in scars. He looked at Ye Tian with astonishment!

"Impossible! Impossible!! Ye Tian, how did you manage this? You should have no strength left, not even able to move, so how could you avoid my attack and launch a fierce counterattack?"

Elder West Wind asked in disbelief, while Ye Tian responded with a slight smile, "Elder West Wind, the reason you’re surprised is that you have no companions and never see anyone as a comrade who can fight alongside you, so you can’t understand what trust is!"

As he said this, Ye Tian revealed an item in his hand to Elder West Wind. Elder West Wind stared in shock at the item in Ye Tian’s hand—wasn’t it the Life Weapon wooden sword he had buried deep in the ice layer earlier?

"How is this possible? How did this Life Weapon appear in your hand again? I should have destroyed it!"

Elder West Wind roared, but Ye Tian calmly said, "Elder West Wind, this is the reason why you refuse to believe the reality in front of you. This wooden sword is connected with me on a deep level. I treat it as a friend with whom I share everything, not just a weapon to kill and defeat enemies. A resonance has long formed between me and the wooden sword, so naturally, we can communicate effortlessly!

In the battle between you and me, due to the surging power, the ice surface has already loosened. The wooden sword wasn’t just waiting idly but was gradually recovering. Given a brief period, the Life Force within the wooden sword would restore itself, emerge from beneath the ice, and return to my hand!"

Looking at the wooden sword in his hand, Ye Tian couldn’t help but smile...

At first, after Elder West Wind had deeply embedded the wooden sword into the ground, he felt concerned, worried that the wooden sword would fall into a dormant state again like before.

However, after the heart of the millennium ancient tree began communicating with him, Ye Tian realized that the wooden sword wasn’t dead but was slowly recovering. Thus, Ye Tian was able to concentrate on battling Elder West Wind.

During his engagement with Elder West Wind, Ye Tian constantly paid attention to the wooden sword’s condition, while the wooden sword communicated its status to Ye Tian through their mental connection.

When Ye Tian’s energy was exhausted and he could only close his eyes waiting for death, the wooden sword suddenly shot up from beneath the ice, returning to Ye Tian’s hand!

For Ye Tian, the Life Force in his body originates entirely from the Life Weapon in his hand. However, once the Life Force entered Ye Tian’s body, Ye Tian nurtured it, continuously enhancing the Life Force within him.

At a crucial moment, this Life Force split into two—one part remained within Ye Tian’s body, and the other part resided in the wooden sword...

As it was recovering beneath the ice, the Life Force possessed by the tree heart gradually restored, enabling it to, through its self-awareness, rise from the ice and return to Ye Tian’s hand.
