Chapter 963: Tempering the Body and Fighting the Palace Ruins
In the deep pit that was created on the high ground, the dragon's claws firmly stepped on Xu Mutang below, and the silver flames on its claws and the cold green spiritual fire on the latter's body melted into each other.
Xu Mutang did not suffer much damage in the previous attack. Although the dragon snake was extremely powerful, its spiritual fire was inferior to his in quality, so one attack was not enough to cause his defense to collapse.
But the opponent's main purpose was obviously to control him. If he didn't get rid of the dragon's claws in time, the one on the dragon's back would be able to attack him unscrupulously, and that would be bad.
At this moment, relying on his huge body size which is different from that of ordinary people, he stretched out two pairs of arms and grabbed different parts of the dragon's claws. At the same time, he twisted his waist and turned over, bend it outwards, and with a loud bang, he knocked the dragon to the side.
The strong figure above leaped down and smashed him on the head with a hammer. He was prepared, and used his free pair of arms to hold the whip and block it.
But he had not yet come out of the pit, so after the collision between the two sides, his body inevitably sank a bit. At this time, the dragon snake moved its four claws, turned over, pressed the ground with its front claws, and rushed towards him with its head.
Xu Mutang leaned back, and the two opponents below grabbed the horn on top of him with incredible precision, and used the opponent's momentum to pull themselves out of the pit. After the dragon snake discovered this, it shook its head left and right, and the horn on top of it exerted force to lift it outwards, throwing him out again.
Xu Mutang was in mid-air, originally planning to use this opportunity to create some distance and regroup, but he suddenly felt something was wrong, and swung the whip in his hand outwards, with a clang, knocking away a short spear that came from nowhere.
Although the short spear did not hit him, it was powerful enough to push him away for some distance.
At this moment, he saw the strong figure put the long hammer in his hand behind his back, and at the same time opened his palm towards him, with a ball of golden light flashing in the palm.
Xu Mutang's expression changed. He was falling from the sky to the ground at this moment. Coupled with the residual force of the spear just now, he had no time to dodge or avoid. So he had to concentrate all his strength on mobilizing the spiritual fire in his body and gather it in front.
At the same time, he used the power of the field to move his body, trying to avoid the front as much as possible. Just before he landed, the flash of light on the opposite side erupted and almost instantly came in front of him. He raised his arms, ready to meet the suffocating impact, but with a bang, the light stopped less than three or four meters ahead.
He looked up in surprise and saw a figure standing there, his whole body shining with platinum flames. One hand was blocking the impact of the light. The flames on both sides collided with each other. Under the extremely dazzling light, only the outline of the figure and the flying coat could be seen.
After a long while, the ball of light finally ran out of power and dissipated, but the figure was still standing in front of him with his back to him. He could see that he was holding a long knife in one hand, and the red scarf tied around his neck was fluttering in the strong airflow.
At this time, the figure turned his head slightly and said, "Inspector Xu, are you okay?"
The voice sounded unexpectedly young, yet full of confidence and composure. It was not difficult to tell from his words that he was one of us, a fighter from Dashun!
Xu Mutang felt relieved, but at the same time he was also a little suspicious. He said, "I'm fine. Thank you for your help. Who are you?"
The figure leaned sideways again, revealing half of his young and handsome face, and said, "Jibei Dao, Chen Chuan."
When Xu Mutang heard this, he was startled at first, then he suddenly realized and said, "Are you Director Chen?" He said solemnly, "Director Chen, I have heard of you. Thank you for your help!"
Chen Chuan looked forward and said, "General Manager Xu, please inspect. We can talk later. Let's deal with this first."
Xu Mutang raised the long whip in his hand, looked at the man and the dragon opposite him, and said decisively: "Okay, I will go with Director Chen!"
Chen Chuan shook his head.
Xu Mutang was a little confused about what he meant.
Chen Chuan said sincerely, "General Manager Xu, please inspect here. Leave this to me. I suggest you take care of your own affairs first."
"What happened to me?"
Xu Mutang was stunned. He was puzzled at first, but when he looked down, he was shocked to find that there were densely packed tiny holes on his body, with countless small insects flying in and out, and where there were holes, the spiritual fires were also empty.
When he discovered all this, he suddenly felt weak, and with a bang, his huge body half-knelt on the ground.
He immediately realized that the thing that had just invaded his body had not been completely removed, and there was still a little bit of it hidden in his body. But if he had not realized it, he would not have been able to detect it before he was completely infected. Now, after realizing this, the alienated tissue in his body instinctively began to resist the battle in order to save itself.
Now he really couldn't join the battle. Suddenly, he saw the dragon snake on the opposite side dig its four claws into the ground and leap towards them. He immediately warned, "Be careful, that's..."
Chen Chuan watched as the dragon snake suddenly rushed towards him with an extremely ferocious force.
He didn't try to dodge, but just turned slightly and punched directly at the dragon's forehead with a bang. He stood still with his feet, but the whole dragon snake was stopped by the fist, causing its thick and long body to arch and twist. Even under the impact of the fist, the spiritual light and fire on it instantly shattered, and the dragon's eyes turned white, and it fell to one side.
The strong figure above immediately leaped into the air and jumped down, while at the same time raising the long snake hammer in his hand high and smashing it down on his head!
Chen Chuan dived forward, stepped on the dragon's head, grabbed the hammer handle with both hands, then turned his body, holding the weapon, and swung the huge golden-armored figure downwards.
With a loud bang, the ground shook violently and bricks and stones flew everywhere. At this moment, he exerted more force, grabbed the long handle and lifted the man up, and smashed him hard on the dragon's back!
There was another violent vibration, and the thick dragon body was almost crushed. Then it took a step forward and kicked the golden-armored general's head hard. The spiritual light of both sides continued to rub violently, but the power of his kick was so strong that the strong body flew away in an instant, and a huge gap exploded in a palace wall in the distance!
He stood on the dragon snake's head, slowly put down his feet, turned around and asked, "Who is that?"
Xu Mutang was silent for a while, then hesitantly said: "...Yuwen Yuanqi?"
Chen Chuan was a little surprised and raised his eyebrows, "Yuwen Yuanqi?"
Xu Mutang was also a little uncertain, but he still insisted: "It should be him. This person is using his famous thousand-year-old weapon and wearing the armor of a general who assists the country. However... the one who is manipulating this body now may not be him, but Emperor Ying!"
"Emperor Ying?"
Chen Chuan thought of a lot of things in an instant and nodded. He could feel just now that the spiritual fire in this man was incredibly abundant and strong, but his martial arts were very average and methodical. It could be seen that he had undergone some rigorous training, but there was also a sense of awkwardness. As a veteran of many battles, he could tell at a glance that this was caused by a lack of practical experience.
This is indeed unlike the legendary Yuwen Yuanqi, who is at least a veteran of hundreds of battles.
He could sense that this person was not some demon or ghost, but possessed a certain breath of life. If there was anything unusual, it was somewhat similar to the feeling that Wei Guochan gave him. Yuwen Yuanqi also came from the old imperial family, and from the upper class at that. He was not surprised at all by this behavior.
However, Inspector Xu seemed to have some information unknown to the outside world.
I'll ask you later.
With a loud crash, the majestic figure stood up from the ruins of rubble and bricks. The spiritual fire on his body suddenly rose higher, and it looked surging, illuminating the area where he was, with a bright light, which was much stronger than before.
He stretched out the long hammer in his hand and pushed it outwards. The palace walls and broken bricks and tiles blocking his way were dispersed with a bang. Then he walked forward. As he moved forward, every step he took would cause the ground to shake, and the armor on his body would shake, making a clanging sound.
And behind him, something began to vaguely appear, as a golden flame swayed and floated up, a cloud of smoke condensed, and finally a huge figure appeared, who looked almost identical to him, with golden armor all over his body, a ghost mask on his head, and an extremely huge hammer in his hand. His lower body melted in the flames, but his upper body was extremely clear. It seemed that at this moment, he only needed to lean down slightly to reach the two of them.
As Yuwen Yuanqi gradually approached, the huge spirit above raised the long hammer in his hand high up and smashed it down towards the two of them.
Xu Mutang looked at the huge hammer above him, his expression suddenly changed. At this critical moment, he ignored everything else, gathered all the spiritual fire in his body, and tried hard to lift the whip.
Chen Chuan looked at the sky. He stood there watching without any intention of dodging. Just when the long hammer was about to fall, there was a surge in the air above, and a tall figure suddenly appeared there. A long mace appeared in front of him, and with a clang, it blocked the hammer handle, preventing the giant hammer from falling. However, there was a rumbling sound at the place where the two sides collided, and even the ground was shaking.
At this moment, in the ghost face of the huge spirit, the eyes were burning like fire, and a surging golden spiritual flame burst out from his body. His arms bulged and pressed forward with force.
Chen Chuan's eyes flashed when he saw this, and the second me overlapped with him in an instant. The next moment, the platinum-colored spiritual light on his body quickly spread upwards, quickly wrapping up the entire spiritual image. He held the mace with both hands and withstood the downward pressure of the long hammer!
