Bi Fan employed ‘the dance of mist’ footwork to dodge the Lizard’s tail, and then quickly cut inwards, in order to get close to him.
The Lizard’s tail was one of its most powerful weapons, and the only way of eliminating it out of the equation was to get close to it.
Bi Fan glided through the distance that separated them, with a ghostly swiftness, and managed to get close enough to his enemy to reduce the threat of its tail.
However, he hadn’t completely eliminated the threat from its entire a.r.s.enal yet, as the Lizard’s front paws and teeth, were razor sharp, and could be used to a terrible effect.
The Chameleon roared as Bi Fan closed in on it, and opened its b.l.o.o.d.y mouth to tear Bi Fan’s body to pieces.
“Wanna bit me huh? If I were you, I’d worry about my teeth first!” Bi Fan sneered.
A snap of the Fingers!
A stone bullet lashed out of Bi Fan’s hands, and crashed into the Lizard’s teeth.
“Bang!” the collision gave rise to a very crisp sound.
The Stone that Bi Fan had used, turned to dust as it hit its target, but managed to do it job, and shattered the Lizard’s teeth.
“EEEEEEE!!!” The Lizard issued a blood-curling scream, and its paws lashed out in Bi Fan’s direction.
Using his purple-feathered sword, Bi Fan started to block the incoming attacks, one after another.
The Blue Dragon and Lone Leaf weren’t exactly having a walk in the park either. The ‘enormous strength’ layer beasts that they were up against, were testing them to the limits. Not to mention, that they were also being eye-balled by other Lizards that were waiting on the sidelines for their turns.
At present, Bi Fan was very worried about the outcome of this battle. He was well aware of the fact, that if things don’t change quickly, and the fight remains a stalemate, like it was at the moment, then, things could end very badly for him and his friends.
Blue Dragon and Lone Leaf, were, as it is, having a very difficult time in dealing with the ‘enormous strength’ layer Lizards that they were confronted with, which meant that, he would have to rely on his own strength to alter this precarious predicament.
At the moment, the four most powerful Lizards of the flock, three ‘enormous strength’ layered and one ‘transformation’ layer Lizard, their chief, were still going strong, which needed to change very quickly, if the trio wanted to get out of this unharmed. However, there was some good news, the other two ‘transformation’ layer Lizards seemed to have lost interest in the battle, and had left the scene.
That certainly eased the pressure to some extent, but Bi Fan was still engaged in a fight with a ‘transformation’ layer Komodo, and needed to do something about this, very quickly.
Bi Fan knew that he’d need to use his full strength, if intended on finishing this fight in time.
“ARGHHHH!!” Bi Fan roared; his body’s muscles began to form a bulge, and it appeared as if he’d suddenly gained a centimeter of height.
“Time for you to Die!”
He cast out the ‘Fufeng Double-edged Sword’ Technique, using his purple-feathered Sword, and charged forward.
He employed his entire strength this time, in each and every attack, and as an end result, the effect of the blows increased threefold.
“ZHUM….ZHUM….” Bi Fan sword landed blows on the Komodo dragon’s skin, like hailstones on a windscreen. The Lizard had a very rough, and thick scaled, skin, but it still couldn’t prevent Bi Fan’s sword from gashing wounds into its body.
The Komodo screamed, as its body started to bleed from the numerous wounds that Bi Fan had just inflicted.
One of the ‘enormous strength’ layer Lizard that was still standing on the side-lines, charged towards Bi Fan, hoping to help out his chieftain.
Bi Fan knew, that owing to this new addition into the fight, it would be much harder to kill the chief Komodo.
However, Bi Fan didn’t panic, and on the contrary, remained very calm and started attacking the new-comer all the same.
The more you practice your skill in tough situations, the more you tend to learn, and grow.
And since, he was using his true strength; he was able to deal with multiple enemies, with surprising ease.
Blue Dragon and Lone Leaf were astonished to see Bi Fan’s display, and Blue Dragon spoke up: “Brother Bi Fan, how much hidden strength do you really have? You’re able to deal with both of them at once!”
“You’re not so bad yourself brother. Let’s see who wins this time!” Bi Fan smiled.
Since the ‘enormous strength’ layer Lizard that had been eyeing Blue Dragon and Lone Leaf, was diverted to Bi Fan, the pressure significantly decreased on them, allowing them fight more freely than before.
Blue Dragon and Lone Leaf weren’t willing to fall behind Bi Fan in any sort of a compet.i.tion, and managed to find some extra strength in order to keep up, as they unleashed ferocious attacks at their respective enemies. Their attacks were good enough to allow them an upper hand, in no time at all.
Bi Fan knew that the two of them were quite juvenile in that respect, and provoking a compet.i.tion would only increase their output.
Bi Fan decided to deal with the ‘enormous strength’ layer komodo first, as he knew that it would be more difficult to kill the leader, while it was being so fiercely protected by its subordinate.
Bi Fan aligned his positioning with that of the ‘enormous layer’ Lizard, and started to launch one wave of attack after the other.
Bi Fan dealt several blows in quick succession; but the Komodo continued to fight back, and so, Bi Fan continued to add to his enemy’s list of injuries.
The Komodo’s Leader realized that its subordinate was having a tough time, and so it lashed out at Bi Fan, in the hope of easing some of the pressure off its brethren.
But Bi Fan’s speed had no match on the battlefield, and he dodged the attacks with ease. Not only that, he even kept himself away from the Chief Lizard, and stuck with the retreating ‘enormous strength’ Lizard.
Prancing Tiger Fist! Fufeng Double-edged Sword! Rainy-Fly Sword!
Bi Fan continued to launch attack in quick succession, which kept hitting their target non-stop.
The Komodo became more of a sandbag, as Bi Fan thrashed it back and forth the battlefield. The Komodo had been belching out a lot of blood, for a while now, and it eventually breathed its last gasp of air.
The remaining of his opponents, the leader of the Komodo dragons, roared, and roared, upon losing it subordinate.
Blue Dragon and Lone Leaf had also succeeded in pinning down their respective ‘enormous strength’ opponents.
But the two of them, hadn’t yet succeeded in finishing the compet.i.tion off, as they too were being ambushed by other remaining Lizards of the group, which was obviously making things very difficult for them.
“Buck up guys, I’m already done with one over here!” Bi Fan announced in a loud voice.
Blue Dragon replied: “Don’t get ahead of yourself Brother, you still have one more to go.”
“True. We still have a match left here.” Bi Fan laughed.
Coping up with the leader, now that it was injured, was a lot easier than before.
Swimming Dragon! Babu Swimming Dragon!
Bi Fan began to test out his newer techniques, as he decided to employ a new strategy now.
He even mixed up some of the ‘Prancing Tiger’ moves in between the attacks.
Although, Bi Fan’s punches couldn’t match the sharpness of his Purple-feathered sword, but his boxing, owing to his sheer strength, was still capable of dealing an enormous amount of damage.
The Komodo Leader was forced retreat, again and again, unable to cope up with Bi Fan. Soon enough, he started to vomit blood, and it appeared that his inner organs might have suffered heavy damage.
This was a very good sign for Bi Fan, and Bi Fan responded by increasing the intensity of his attacks. Damaging the Komodo dragon’s inner organs, was an excellent alternate method to kill it off.
The Komodo Leader’s skin was so thick and hard, that it wouldn’t be easy to slash past it, even with the help of the Purple-feathered Sword.
So, Bi Fan decided to go with brute force this time. He had picked his choice well, and it started to bear results very soon.
Bi Fan, physically, was a lot stronger than the Chief Komodo, which meant that he could kill it off, even with his bare hands, if need be.
Bi Fan’s attacks were being stopped by the Komodo’s scales, but the impact was still hurting the Komodo’s internal organs.
Soon enough, after being forced to retreat in defeat, repeatedly, and unsuccessfully so at that, the Komodo tried to flee.
“Bailing out huh? Too late for that now!” Bi Fan lunged forward again.
Blue Dragon and the Lone Leaf had already finished their opponents, and were busy clearing out the rest of the battlefield, which mostly comprised of weaker Lizards.
Bi Fan started casting out the ‘Immortal Finger’ attack, clandestinely, each and every time the Lizard issued a roared. The attacks were fired into the Komodo’s mouth, as these attacks were intended to hurt the damaged insides of the Komodo.
The Komodo had a very tough skin, but obviously, its insides weren’t cut out of the same cloth.
“EEEEEEEEEEE…………” The Komodo screeched relentlessly, as blood belched out of its mouth.
Prancing Tiger – the second technique – Sea of Tigers.
Bi Fan cast out another new move, and hundreds of lightning fast punched befell the Komodo’s body.
“Boom! Bang! Boom!” The komodo vomited blood non-stop for a while, and then, eventually submitted itself to Bi Fan’s supremacy, and fell to the ground; and remained there; motionless.
“Oh yeah! That’s done!” Bi Fan shouted out in excitement. He turned around to realize that Blue Dragon and Lone Leaf had already finished off their opponents, and had almost cleared out the rest of the battlefield as well.
“Brother Bi Fan, you were one step too slow.” Blue Dragon smiled: “But, I’d say, that ultimately you still win.”
Bi Fan smiled back: “I was one step behind you, in the end… so another draw, I’d reckon.”
Bi Fan quickly started to incorporate the bodies of his best kills into his Yin Yang pouch; Killers keepers, that was the division policy.
Blue Dragon and Lone Leaf, were both, a little jealous to see Bi Fan acquiring the carca.s.s of the strongest Lizards, as the chances of finding a Nucleus is always higher in the carca.s.ses of stronger Demons.
Even though they were a bit envious of Bi Fan, they still couldn’t do anything, after all, they had decided on the division policies beforehand.
Moreover, they weren’t exactly going to raise any objection now, especially after they had seen Bi Fan’s real ability.
Bi Fan had just collected the ‘enormous strength’ Lizard’s body, and was strolling over to that of the ‘transformation’ layer Lizard’s when, an unexpected laugh interrupted him: “Haha…. That carca.s.s belongs to me, leave it here and leave. If you wish to live, that is.”
