Tang Tian retreated backwards, Qing Luan’s sword gleam, was extremely agile, as though it had come alive. It was the first time he has met such unique and agile sword, even though he had an astute intuition, within that short time, he was also stuck in a passive state.
Qing Luan’s sword techniques pales in comparison to Brother Jing Hao, and Green Luan Blood Meridians compared to Angel Blood Meridians, Tang Tian felt that it did not raise her powers by much, but the two complemented well, hence the power raised sharply, and shocked Tang Tian.
Tang Tian has always felt the blood meridians only heighten the physical attributes, to think that blood meridians and martial techniques could be combined so perfectly.
The green sword gleam before him, was like a group of agile elves, they were hard to detect, and their traces were ever-changing. Like water overflowing the dam, they charged straight for Tang Tian.
If not for his extraordinary astute and strong intuition, he would have long been defeated.
Qing Luan however felt entirely opposite, Tang Tian was indeed embarrassed, many times when she thought she was about to win, Tang Tian would always do the unthinkable to avoid the blows. Tang Tian seemed to be crumbling, but he would always not crumble.
She possessed a rather rare Green Luan Blood Meridians, and Master Hou even collected for her a piece of [Green Bird Shaky Sword] Golden Card, the perfect combination of the two, made her battle powers change completely. Just that she seldom had the chance to attack, usually her battle experience was nearly zero.
But in the trials within the establishment, among her same-age peers, those who could beat her, were barely a handful.
To think… …
100 strokes have passed, and she still did not manage to take down Tang Tian!
Shockness aside, she was feeling even more irate.
With a long whistle, the sword handle turned, wong, green sword rays filled the skies, and converged towards her body.
A pair of green sword wings formed at an observable speed on her back, her body suddenly became light, her feet left the ground, and she actually floated in mid air.
[Shaky Sword Wings]!
The green gleam in Qing Luan’s eyes rose suddenly and sharply, with a shake of the long sword, she vanished.
A ray of even more dazzling green patch, shot towards his field of vision.
Tang Tian instantly felt a strong sense of danger, and at almost the same time, a light and almost undetectable airflow flowed by him, Tang Tian’s pupils instantly dilated!
Someone was sneaking an ambush!
A strong sense of danger enveloped Tang Tian, in that moment, Tang Tian was unexpectedly calm.
The martial spirit inside him, jumped like a flame, suddenly an idea popped out in his mind, almost without thinking, he blurted.
“Peacock!”
A speck of silver light, bloomed from deep inside Tang Tian’s pupils, and then exploded from inside him!
Numerous dazzling silver lights, like the sharp edge of the knives, like raindrops falling, swept across the entire perimeter.
The elder who ambushed Tang Tian, never expected such a situation, the dazzling and glaring silver light, stung his eyes painfully, and his vision turned completely white.
Oh no!
The elder’s expression changed drastically, and tried to withdraw hurriedly, the oncoming rain of silver light, made him sense danger. His boneless body, suddenly curled up into a ball, and rolled backwards speedily.
Poof!
A ray of silver light struck his back, his body shook, a cold and menacing air, entered his body where the ray struck.
Qing Luan who was charging towards Tang Tian in mid air, was shocked but did not panic, with a turn of the sword handle, like an automatic umbrella, numerous green sword rays were deflected by the umbrella, and scattered out from the long sword in her hands.
Ding ding ding!
The density made one sore.
Qing Luan who was in mid air with her sword wings spread open, had to retreat an inch with each sound of collision.
Everyone who witnessed this scene, would definitely feel spooked, Qing Luan’s body was like a puppet, retreating backwards. Inch by inch, as though the video was choppy.
When the last ray of silver light was deflected, Qing Luan’s arms actually felt sore and weak, and she was aghast. Shaky Sword Wings was her real killer move, in the establishment, whenever she used this move, she would never be defeated. Even Master Hou had personally praised her for this move.
Her Shaky Sword Wings was actually suppressed by someone else… …
Qing Luan stared dazedly at Tang Tian before her, this guy, so formidable! The silver rays scattered all over the sky, was extremely beautiful, she now then saw these rays clearly. Each silver ray, was actually a piece of silver object, what was that?
Qing Luan was curious.
Hoo!
The silver rays scattered in the sky, drew out numerous dazzling straight silver lines, and shot towards Tang Tian.
Tang Tian’s body was once again enveloped in the dazzling silver light.
However, the radiance this time came and left fast, in the blink of an eye, Tang Tian resurfaced before the eyes of the crowd. But this time, Tang Tian had an extra layer of oddly gorgeous silver feathered armour.
A proud and grandiose silver peacock appeared on Tang Tian’s shoulders. This peacock was almost fully silver, especially its eyes, it was pure silvery-white, and seemed abnormally cold. The most eye-catching of all, was the nearly 2m-long blue coloured soft and long feather on its forehead, dragging behind its body, made it seemed like a ribbon flowing in the wind.
The peacock squatted on Tang Tian’s shoulders, the entire silver armour on Tang Tian, was its feathers.
“This… … this is the silver rank armor!”
Di Heng Zhan exclaimed aloud, his gaze locked and attracted by the abnormally gorgeous and intricate silver armor on Tang Tian’s body. No one will dislike an armor, but this place was the Onyx Soul, where even Bronze Treasures were uncommon, let alone armors.
Di Heng Zhan’s gaze sooned turned into envy and jealousy. There was also a silver armor in Wu Hou government, but that only belonged to Wu Hou. Other than that, only few possessed a bronze Armor, and Di Heng Zhan did not even had the qualifications to possess a bronze Armor.
The little girl was stunned as well, she obviously recognized the silver armor, and she knew much more.
That was… … awakening!
The silver peacock eyes were cold and void of warmth, but strangely, she could see a trace of long history.
Ling Xu looked at the imposing Tang Tian, and involuntarily grabbed his silver spear tight.
Ling Xu, you must work harder!
Behind the Cross Door.
Bing glanced at the indifferent Ghostly Claw, and sighed, “Didn’t expect it right, this fellow could actually awaken the peacock so soon! This fellow’s martial spirit is sure formidable.”
“However, the peacock being so unyielding, was somehow not what I expected. It probably has been too lonely after staying still for too long, and thirsts for a battle like before.”
Bing muttered to himself.
“When I first entered the Saber-toothed Tiger, I would always feel dazed too, recalling the past, the previous battles, just like they only happened yesterday.”
“Actually your luck is not bad, although you have become a spirit general, but your martial techniques and peacock, are still around, and are still able to battle.”
Ghostly Claw was still, only his eyes, seemed to have something quietly surging inside.
“One day, the peacock will be proud to have battled alongside him.”
Bing quietly said.
※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※
Tang Tian could feel the quiet and surging power from the peacock, a tiny smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, like ripples, it rapidly spread into a wide smile.
“Hahahaha! Peacock, we are going to battle side by side again!”
“You came just in the nick of time!”
“Come on, the peacock and lad combo is undefeatable, all who defy us, be prepared to get a good whacking from us!”
Tang Tian roared daringly, for all to hear.
The peacock did not speak, but the silvery eyes, had a surge of cold battle will.
“Are you ready? Peacock!”
Tang Tian suddenly lowered his body, and asked in a low voice.
As though telepathic, the peacock suddenly spread opened its wings, a pair of silver wings formed by numerous intricate feathers armour, bloomed behind Tang Tian’s back.
“Kill!”
With a deafening roar, and the echoes still fresh, Tang Tian vanished.
Qing Luan who was on the alert, was stunned, Tang Tian did not charge towards her… …
The elder who sneaked an ambush, was curled up in the corner, his breathing was all stopped, him right now, was like a block of withered wood, without any signs of life.
This fellow, what weirdo was he? Double blood meridians, strong as an ox, average martial techniques, but his attainments were that of long-time old researchers.
And he actually had an Armor… … a silver armor at that!
When he saw clearly that it was the silver armor, he was scared out of his wits. He had witnessed the might of the silver armor before. Back then, when he was making a living away from home, he had seen an expert with the silver armor, with the flick of a finger, he killed a martial artist who was far more reputable than him.
Since then, he was disheartened, and returned to Humble Forest Planet, never to leave again.
Tang Tian’s abilities were already intrepid, with the aid of the silver armor now, his abilities soared. He was definitely not a match for Tang Tian now. When that piece of feather armour struck him just now, that cold and tough air, entered his body, he was actually injured. This also made him lose his confidence.
He made a prompt decision, before everyone reacted, he quietly slipped to the corner, and hid himself.
His Golden Snake Blood Meridians, could perfectly conceal his breathing, he had used this method, to save himself from many dangerous situations. He decided that once he found a chance, he will immediately leave Gu Family far behind, he wanted to leave this scary place.
Suddenly, a silver figure, appeared before him without warning.
The elder almost could not believe his eyes, how did Tang Tian find out… … he did not notice just now!
The elder was flabbergasted, he jumped straight up, and turned to run, but suddenly his neck was in pain, for a silver armoured hand, was grabbing his neck.
Crack!
He… … how did he find out… …
The elder’s eyes grew wide, and rapidly lost its lustre.
The opposition’s blood meridians were very unique, his breathing was concealed perfectly, but, because he was struck by the peacock’s feather armor just now, the peacock’s energy penetrated his body, as the energy has yet to be resolved fully, it became the best target, and the peacock easily found the opposition’s hiding spot.
“How dare you ambush me, are you tired of living!”
Tang Tian snorted, and turned to face Qing Luan, he raise his right arm, “Come on, let’s have a good fight!”
Qing Luan pressed the sword handle, the Sword Wings spread opened behind her back, and her aura skyrocketed.
Suddenly, a tiny figure jumped into the square, it was the little girl.
“She admits defeat!”
The little girl said crisply, Qing Luan was stunned, and then anxiously said, “Missy!”
“Qing Luan, are you defying my orders?” The little girl looked at Qing Luan calmly.
Qing Luan was stunned.
Tang Tian was however annoyed, “Hey hey hey, what’s the matter? You guys want to start the fight and then now you want to end it, just as you guys pleases? Humph, not so easy!”
Qing Luan was enraged, but the little girl cheerily said, “Teacher, let’s have a discussion, I’ll use 200 million Star Coins to resolve this matter, how about that?”
Tang Tian instantly grinned, “Good student, since you said so, I’ll give you the honor!”
The others were shocked and transfixed by this sudden change of events.
