Chapter 1175: Phantom Divine Whip
Chapter 1175: Phantom Divine Whip
However, Chen Tianlong was obviously a cultivator, and a top-tier one at that. How could Xu Fei’s Phantom Divine Whip, which never failed him, be ineffective against him?
One must know, although the Phantom Divine Whip looks dazzling, its main function is to confuse the opponent. Once their mental defenses are destroyed, isn’t it just a matter of defeating them at will?
"How come you’re fine?" Xu Fei asked Chen Tianlong in surprise.
"What do you mean by ’how come I’m fine’? Is there something wrong with you? You wave around that lousy whip trying to scare people, and I’m supposed to be affected? I thought your intelligence would improve after practicing that mediocre Divine Skill, but you’re still as clumsy as ever. If your skills aren’t up to par, you resort to scaring people." Chen Tianlong responded calmly.
"Impossible, just wait! Waaagh!"
Xu Fei roared in anger, and suddenly, behind him flashed the illusion of thousands of whips. This is called Ten Thousand Whips Return to the Root, the ultimate technique of the third layer of Heart-Burning Divine Skill.
When Ten Thousand Whips Return to the Root is unleashed, all cultivators must fall into a daze. This is a Divine Skill typically used after stepping into the Seventh Star of the Celestial Dao, and Xu Fei forcing it prematurely greatly drained his own physical strength and Powerful Qi.
Nevertheless, in order to defeat Chen Tianlong, Xu Fei didn’t care anymore. He unleashed his strongest move, refusing to believe that Chen Tianlong wouldn’t succumb to confusion.
"What are you doing? Performing magic tricks?" Chen Tianlong asked Xu Fei indifferently. "You didn’t call me here just to watch you perform, did you?"
"Impossible!"
Xu Fei’s mouth gaped open, seeing how Chen Tianlong was completely unaffected. The techniques he always relied on seemed to have no effect on Chen Tianlong here.
This Heart Method Mantra, created by the Zhu Family from ancient times, has a strong power to confuse and intimidate cultivators, especially the final move, which makes everyone fall.
Yet, Chen Tianlong remained unfazed. This was too unrealistic, wasn’t it?
"Waaagh, just die already!" Xu Fei suddenly raised both his hands and performed a strange gesture, and in an instant, the Ten Thousand Whips Return to the Root behind him became grand and bright.
Xu Fei’s Heart Method Mantra is extremely heaven-defying, passed down from ancient times, and is comparable to Chen Tianlong’s Nine Yang Celestial Dragon Technique.
Ancient Heart Methods like these are usually invincible, such as Chen Tianlong’s Nine Yang Celestial Dragon Technique.
Xu Fei couldn’t understand why his Heart Method Mantra had no effect on Chen Tianlong, and not only was Chen Tianlong unaffected, but Xu Fei noticed out of the corner of his eye that Lin Wushuang and the other two women and Du Nong were also fine!
Did it even fail against Chen Tianlong’s associates?
Thinking of this, Xu Fei was very much unwilling. He roared, and the Silver Snake Soft Whip in his hand flicked again, breaking free from Chen Tianlong’s grasp and aiming for his head.
But the next moment, Chen Tianlong casually dodged it as if this were just a game, rendering Xu Fei’s ultimate technique rather feeble.
What was going on?
Xu Fei was stunned, thinking to himself, was the previous moment all an illusion?
This move of his had never failed before. So with the intent to test, he activated the Phantom Divine Whip again.
To his dismay, Xu Fei found out that in front of Chen Tianlong, after activating his Heart Method Mantra, he seemed to be ignored, but wouldn’t everyone else be captivated?
Why was it useless against Chen Tianlong?
"Xu Fei, are you done or not? If you want to admit defeat, just say so. I don’t want to play anymore." Chen Tianlong taunted Xu Fei.
"Admit defeat?"
Xu Fei froze but then reacted, gritting his teeth in fury and snorting coldly, "Enough of this; we’re here to see who comes out on top in the trial."
"Suit yourself. If there’s nothing more, I’m leaving."
Saying this, Chen Tianlong gestured to Lin Wushuang and Du Nong, and the three of them headed to the hotel together.
Tan Batian watched from afar as Chen Tianlong unleashed his might, suppressing Xu Fei, and was quite astonished, secretly admiring Chen Tianlong.
Xu Fei originally thought he could establish his prestige through Chen Tianlong, but he lost in the first battle. Even if he couldn’t do anything to Chen Tianlong, he wanted to confuse him and have some fun.
For instance, handing Lin Wushuang over to play with him, or stripping in the courtyard and running naked was also quite a joyful thing.
Isn’t Chen Tianlong the number one in martial arts now? He even became a team leader. Now, if Chen Tianlong were to be played by him...
Then wouldn’t the Huaxia Martial Arts world also submit to him?
Unfortunately, it all turned into a pipe dream.
Hao Kan also didn’t expect such a situation to occur. After Chen Tianlong left, he came to his senses, "Young Master Xu, do you want me to make a move?"
"No, we have to save the confrontation for the trial; we can’t confront Chen Tianlong too early," Xu Fei shook his head, though he was unwilling, he had no choice, he snorted, "Let’s go back."
"Alright!" Hao Kan nodded and followed.
Chen Tianlong was walking and thinking, why were the four people, Lin Wushuang and Du Nong, unaffected?
Thinking and thinking, perhaps the explanation is that in their bodies was his own Powerful Qi, could the Powerful Qi cultivated by his Nine Yang Celestial Dragon Technique resist Xu Fei’s Phantom Divine Whip?
For the rest of the night, Xu Fei and Hao Shuai didn’t provoke Chen Tianlong again.
Besides Xu Fei and his group, Chen Tianlong also noticed some strangers, presumably other Trial Takers from the Celestial Pill Sect, but Chen Tianlong wasn’t too affected by them. He just smiled and passed by.
Calculating, there actually weren’t many people in the entire Celestial Pill Sect trials. Besides the dozen or so individuals from the Mortal Realm, the rest were various Sub-Branches’ people.
Additionally, there were the six Attribute Female Cultivators arranged by the Celestial Pill Sect.
Time quickly moved to around nine in the evening, when suddenly a voice echoed from the open ground behind the hotel, carrying a strong and authoritative presence that made all the trial takers in the hotel shudder.
"All Trial Takers participating in the final trial of the Celestial Pill Sect, please pay attention. Please gather in the open area behind the hotel within five minutes."
This voice belonged to the Pure Yang Daoist, and Chen Tianlong was very familiar with it. Moreover, he made no effort to conceal his strength, displaying his deep cultivation fully.
Actually being the Pure Yang Daoist Sect Leader himself, it showed how important the Celestial Pill Sect considered this trial, thought Chen Tianlong.
But on second thought, anyone who came for the Celestial Pill Sect trials was an elite from various factions, all prepared to obtain pills or stabilize their own physical constitutions.
So the organizers must give it due attention; otherwise, it would be absurd for everyone to put in so much effort just to fool around.
Thinking this, Chen Tianlong led Lin Wushuang to the open ground behind the hotel, and soon Liu Ting, Bing Ruxue, Li Bingshuang, and Du Nong followed.
Before long, almost all trial takers left the hotel and reached the plaza behind it; after all, everyone was an expert in cultivation, so their speed wasn’t slow.
Chen Tianlong, along with the six girls and Du Nong, found a relatively clean spot, sat cross-legged on the ground, and the other trial takers who arrived also mimicked Chen Tianlong, finding their own places to sit down.
