Chapter 191 – Reversing the Situation
(Mustang: Regular Chapter.)
Bi Fan’s comment made Wu Ji Xuan even more impatient, and his fleeting sword made its way towards Bi Fan with the intention of beheading its target.
His attacks had become far more powerful, far thicker, and much sharper than before.
Bi Fan didn’t dare to meet his attacks head on, and quickly dodged the incoming attacks. Bi Fan realized that he could no longer conceal his strength, and would require the Sacred Rune if he wished to win the fight.
His strength doubled up and reached fifty-six Yun Shi the moment he employed the Sacred Rune.
Fifty Six Yun Shi of strength made Bi Fan stronger than Wu Ji Xuan in theory, but Wu Ji Xuan’s body was also being supported by Aura, which made his body stronger than it appeared.
Bi Fan didn’t expose his enhanced momentum immediately, and decided that he’d use it at the appropriate time to inflict maximum possible damage to Wu Ji Xuan.
Even though the Chimera was quite scared at this point, he was still charging forward to support Bi Fan.
Bi Fan and the Chimera continued to engage Wu Ji Xuan in combat.
Wu Ji Xuan’s strength had increased by a lot, and the sheer might of his attacks was constantly forcing Bi Fan and the Chimera to retreat wincing.
“Oh gosh, Brother Bi Fan is really in a lot of trouble this time around. He killed Wu Ji Xuan’s beast pet, which has really angered Wu Ji Xuan….. I’m afraid that Wu Ji Xuan might try to kill Brother Bi Fan to avenge his pet’s death.” Jing Feng was extremely worried about his friend’s safety.
“Yes, ah, Wu Ji Xuan’s state is beginning to stabilize very quickly, and once he’s completely settled into his new state, then he’ll be in complete control of this fight.” Yan Yu Si a.n.a.lyzed.
Mo Nan said: “Brother Bi Fan has no chance of winning, so he might as well concede the fight early…. Otherwise there’s always a chance that he’ll end up giving Wu Ji Xuan an opportunity to inflict injuries to his body.”
“Bi Fan probably won’t admit his defeat….. if he wanted to concede the fight, he would have already done it by now.” Ling Xin Ya shook his head as he sighed, afraid that his disciple might meet with an unfortunate accident.
It is hard to find a good teacher, but even harder to find a good student. Bi Fan’s achievements had already surpa.s.sed the boundaries of his talent, and if something untoward happened to him, then Ling Xin Ya may never be able to find another of his kind.
Luo Sheng was smiling brazenly as he continued to watch the fight with cold eyes, desperate to watch Bi Fan’s death.
Luo Xiong was also quite happy, but could still feel a sense of gloom since he wanted to play a role in Bi Fan’s demise.
The Wu Ji Sect delegation was already laughing and cheering, and it seemed that they had already started celebrating their impending victory.
Wu Ji Xuan’s attack power was constantly growing, and his ‘Wu Ji Sword’ attack was now a lot more powerful than before.
Bi Fan looked like a mess; in fact, even the Chimera had lost a few more scales to Wu Ji Xuan’s attacks.
If the Chimera’s defense hadn’t increase enormously after its evolution due to the growth of his scales, then he’d sure have injured himself very seriously by now.
But even then, had the Chimera played against Wu Ji Xuan alone, then he’d already have lost the fight a long time ago.
In fact, if the Chimera wasn’t Bi Fan’s pet, then he would have already fled a long time ago.
Bi Fan was still looking for an opportunity, refusing to match Wu Ji Xuan’s strength since he knew that he only had one chance, and in case he allowed Wu Ji Xuan to be prepared for that critical juncture, then he might not be able to achieve the desired result.
The increasingly intensifying battle had been keeping the audience at the edge of their seats. Although most people weren’t clearly able to see the movements of the two men, but their dazzling silhouettes were enough to tickle their imaginations.
“They are so powerful! Will I even be able to reach at par with Wu Ji Xuan and Bi Fan?”
“I’d be satisfied with just half of their strength, really!”
… …
Wu Ji Xuan – Wu Ji Reforms!
Seeing that he had been unable to defeat Bi Fan after having fought with him for so long, Wu Ji Xuan decided to cast out his most powerful trick.
Thousands of blades converged together, forming a very thick sword.
The power and might of this attack was almost explosive.
Bi Fan’s face changed colors and he started increasing the pace of his movements in order to make it harder for Wu Ji Xuan to find his trail.
Meanwhile, the Chimera receded backwards, unable to find the courage to face Wu Ji Xuan’s attack.
“Go to h.e.l.l!” Wu Ji Xuan released his attack, and sent it straight at Bi Fan in the hope beheading him.
The large sweep radius of the attack didn’t leave Bi Fan with much room to escape into.
Bi Fan remained calm, and pushed ‘The dance of mist’ footwork to its extreme, and was somehow able to dodge the attack.
“Plop…” the attack still nicked Bi Fan’s dress, and the collision gave rise to sparks.
Fortunately, Bi Fan’s body was being protected by his high grade soft armor, and the sky-blue suit which had been given to him by the Quinyang Sect, owing to which he managed to escape unharmed.
However, Bi Fan’s entire body was covered in sweat, and he was visibly frightened by the danger of the attack.
Wu Ji Xuan was very surprised to see that even his best attack wasn’t enough to inflict any damage to Bi Fan.
But he immediately calmed down, and decided that he’d try to force Bi Fan into gradually consuming his energy, post which he’d finish Bi Fan off in a single strike.
Bi Fan on the other hand, was intentionally making his condition look worse than it really was in order to cloud Wu Ji Xuan’s judgement.
Soon, it started seeming as if Bi Fan was beginning to lose his morale; in fact, even his speed had started seemingly slowing down.
“My opportunity has finally arrive; Bi Fan, now you’re toast!” Wu Ji Xuan thought to himself.
Wu Ji Xuan took his opportunity, and launched a fierce and desperate attack.
Wu Ji Xuan was so excited that he almost abandoned his own defense.
Bi Fan saw this, and suddenly his momentum burst out as he decided to take advantage of the Sacred Rune’s enhancement.
The Floating sword!
The Immortal Finger!
Bi Fan cast out a series of his strongest attacks with all his force.
Bi Fan’s explosive momentum left everyone shocked since he was almost as strong as Wu Ji Xuan now.
Wu Ji Xuan’s face became pale with fear since he had expected to win this fight after this move; he had never imagined that Bi Fan would be concealing more strength.
“Bi Fan, even though you have more hidden strength than I thought, you’ll still never win!” Wu Ji Xuan shouted furious.
Bi Fan’s sword replied to Wu Ji Xuan’s challenge.
“Jhum…..” his successive attacks caught Wu Ji Xuan unprepared, while ‘The Immortal Finger’ hit Wu Ji Xuan several time, poking three b.l.o.o.d.y holes in his body.
Bi Fan was fighting very smartly; he wasn’t targeting Wu Ji Xuan’s upper body since he knew that Wu Ji Xuan’s upper body would be protected by some sort of high end defense equipment.
Bi Fan’s had chosen to attack Wu Ji Xuan’s limbs since he knew that injuring his enemy’s limbs would eventually affect his fighting.
Wu Ji Xuan had fallen prey to his tactic, and blood had already started streaming from his wounds.
Wu Ji Xuan growled furiously, and then charged back at Bi Fan to kill him.
Bi Fan had expected a fierce retaliation, and was more than prepared for it.
Bi Fan knew that winning this fight still wouldn’t be easy for him.
Wu Ji Xuan on the other hand was getting more and more desperate since he knew that the longer this fight wore on, the more unfavorable the situation would get for him.
Wu Ji Xuan was trying to force Bi Fan into a decisive exchange, but unfortunately for him, Bi Fan was cleverly dodging his attacks, refusing to engage him directly.
On top of that, the Chimera was also holding back and was staying close to Bi Fan, just in case he needed to rescue Bi Fan.
Therefore, it had become very difficult for Wu Ji Xuan to end this fight quickly.
Moreover, Wu Ji Xuan was also afraid that Bi Fan’s strength might erupt again.
No one was aware that Bi Fan had used the Sacred Rune to increase his strength, so naturally no one was aware that Bi Fan had already expended his ‘one-off’.
Bi Fan’s body was turning and twisting in weird ways, and he was solely relying on his agility to drag the fight longer.
More and more blood continued to stream from Wu Ji Xuan’s wounds as the battle wore on.
Moreover, since Wu Ji Xuan was constantly attacking, his energy levels had also seen a major depletion, which was making things even harder for him.
The entire arena was watching the contest dumbfounded since no one had ever antic.i.p.ated that Bi Fan would be capable of reversing the entire situation in just one sequence.
“Bi Fan is just an ‘enormous strength’ layer fighter, where is he getting so much strength from?” A lot of people were thinking about this, but no one had raised this doubt publicly since everyone knew that this wasn’t the time or place for the debate.
In fact, even the Quinyang Sect delegation was completely baffled since even they could explain how Bi Fan had been able to increase his strength in that astonishing sequence.
