Seeing Yun Xiao's hand being slashed by the black-glazed wooden sword, Guan Tianrong, who had already suffered a loss just now, naturally couldn't let it slash his arm. Instead, he turned his arm slightly to align his arm with the wooden sword.
A state of equality.
In this way, no matter how sharp the wooden sword was, it could only slice through the spikes on Guan Tianrong's arm armor, but it would not be possible for him to slice off his arm without warning.
It has to be said that the reaction and speed of this peak Huaxuan Realm master are top-notch. Under his sudden change of moves, Yun Xiao couldn't take back the Dragon Control Sword in his hand, so he could only cut it off with one sword.
Clang, clang, clang...
Several harsh sounds were heard in succession. The Dragon Sword was so sharp. In addition, the energy of these spikes was completely different from that of the golden sword just now. Therefore, the spikes on the armor of Guan Tianrong's right arm were cut to pieces.
Several pieces were broken.
Seeing this scene, Guan Tianrong was not surprised but happy, because his black gold thorn armor was not that simple. It was not an ordinary armor, but a special armor condensed from his pulse energy.
Those spikes seemed to be solid, but they were actually formed by Guan Tianrong's pulse energy. Therefore, after they were cut off, a few more spikes grew out as soon as he thought about it.
And at this moment, taking advantage of the opportunity that the opponent was very close to him, under the control of Guan Tianrong's thoughts, the places where the sharp spikes were cut off not only regenerated into another sharp spike, but also grew longer than before.
It has grown several times.
It was like there were several hidden weapons stabbing Yun Xiao's chest and throat unexpectedly. Judging from the situation at this time, Guan Tianrong had already anticipated these actions when he turned his arms just now.
.
Every strong man who has reached the peak of Huaxuan Realm cannot be underestimated, especially these emperor dragon army commanders who have special methods. If they don't have a few unique skills of their own, how can they subdue their subordinates?
Although Guan Tianrong had only practiced the pulse technique of the Black Gold Thorn Armor for a few days, he had already mastered it with his talent and strength. He was extremely satisfied with his reaction at this moment.
To be honest, the inconspicuous ebony wooden sword in Yun Xiao's hand really frightened Guan Tianrong, but after using the trick, he believed that the opponent was definitely caught off guard, and maybe this battle would be over soon.
The spikes on the black gold thorn armor can be lengthened or shortened at will according to Guan Tianrong's will, which means that as long as he is willing, it is not impossible for these spikes to grow to dozens of feet long, provided that he has the support of pulse energy.
But now, there is no need to grow these spikes to a length of dozens of feet. It is enough to pierce the throat and chest of the young man in black across from him.
Even the gray-robed man over there was not expecting such a sudden spike of spikes, secretly thinking that as the commander of the Imperial Dragon Army, Guan Tianrong's methods were indeed extraordinary.
"Boy, it's over!"
Guan Tianrong, who was full of ambition, made such a sound that sounded like a sentence from his mouth hidden by the black gold armor, followed by several spikes, which were already only an inch away from Yunxiao's chest and throat.
Ding! Ding! Ding!…
However, the next scene did not follow Guan Tianrong's script. When he heard a series of crisp sounds coming in, he suddenly felt that the armor spikes under his control could no longer be used.
No progress has been made.
"What's this?"
Even with the black gold thorn armor blocking his eyes, at this moment Guan Tianrong finally saw the slowly rotating earth-yellow lotus flowers at Yun Xiao's throat and chest.
Earth Emerging Stone Lotus Armor!
It was obvious that Yun Xiao at this moment had already used his invincible defensive armor.
Although his current pulse energy cultivation level is weaker than Guan Tianrong's, if the latter wanted to stab him to death with just a few pulse energy spikes, it would undoubtedly be impossible.
Moreover, the defensive pulse skill of this Earth Emerging Stone Lotus Armor is not static. It will continuously improve its defense power as Yunxiao pulse Qi cultivation improves.
It's just that things like the Earth Emerging Stone Lotus are rare even in Jiuzhong Longxiao, let alone after refining the Earth Emerging Stone Lotus and getting the inherited Earth Emerging Stone Lotus Armor.
It has to be said that Yun Xiao is indeed blessed by nature, and he has not missed out on any luck he deserves. Whether it is the earth-swelling stone lotus armor or the talent inheritance of the water-attributed supernatural spirit, they are all unparalleled blessings that can be encountered but cannot be sought.
"asshole!"
Sensing the resistance on the armor's spikes, Guan Tianrong couldn't help but let out an angry curse from his mouth, which was covered by his golden armor. He knew that his plan was in vain after all.
"Humph, I don't believe it!"
However, Guan Tianrong has not completely lost confidence. With his body covered in spiked armor, he is quite confident in his close combat capabilities. He believes that as long as he does not touch the sharp wooden sword, he can be invincible.
.
The original intention of researching this black gold thorn armor is because the physical strength of human cultivators is much inferior to that of pulse monsters and supernatural spirits. This is a powerful pulse technique specially developed for the supernatural spirits.
The black gold thorn armor can be used both offensively and defensively, which to a large extent makes up for the lack of physical strength of human beings. However, he did not expect that the powerful pulse technique that Guan Tianrong had just practiced would be used against Yun Xiao, who was also a human cultivator.
However, in Guan Tianrong's heart, I am afraid that the physical strength of the black-clothed boy named Xingchen in front of him is not much worse than that of the foreign spirits of the same level, right?
Only by using such a method that has both super strong defense and powerful attack power, might it be possible to suppress that kid's physical strength to an extremely weak level.
Huhuhu...
In the underground secret room, the wind roared for a moment, and the light of Wujin overflowed. The young man in black, Xingxing, kept retreating, and it seemed that he really did not dare to let those sharp thorns pierce his body.
Such a scene undoubtedly makes Guan Tianrong more and more confident. The spikes on his body are everywhere, and if the opponent can only defend passively, there will definitely be a moment of mistakes.
As the saying goes, if you defend for a long time, you will lose. If you just defend blindly against the enemy's violent attack, you will not be far from failure. In Guan Tianrong's view, the stars at this moment are undoubtedly in such a situation.
"Well, it seems that with this cultivation level that has just broken through to the late stage of the Huanxuan Realm, it is still a bit too reluctant to challenge a commander at the peak of the Huanxuan Realm!"
At this moment, Yun Xiao felt quite emotional in his heart. He was indeed trying hard to defend, but with Guan Tianrong already on guard against the Dragon Sword, it was already impossible for him to unexpectedly hurt the enemy.
After reaching Huaxuan Realm, the higher the level, the greater the gap. Now Yun Xiao, at a lower level, can only barely compete.
In addition, Guan Tianrong is different from the ordinary cultivators outside. As the commander of the Imperial Dragon Army, the exercises and pulse techniques he practices are probably obtained in exchange for military merit points, and they are extremely powerful.
For example, at this moment, the black gold spiked armor made Guan Tianrong like a hedgehog that had no idea what to eat. Yun Xiao did not dare to use his own body to resist it except using the Dragon Control Sword to block it.
Although the previous Earth Emerging Stone Lotus Armor was very effective, don't forget that using the Earth Emerging Stone Lotus Armor also requires consuming pulse energy. If Yun Xiao keeps using the Earth Emerging Stone Lotus Armor to resist, wouldn't it be playing into Guan Tianrong's plan?
The greatest reliance of Guan Da Dutong is his pulse energy cultivation, which is one level higher than a small realm. Now that he has made up for the lack of physical strength, he is undoubtedly in an invincible position.
For Yun Xiao, who is in the late stage of Hua Xuan Realm, his pulse energy cultivation is undoubtedly his biggest shortcoming. Although leapfrogging is a common occurrence for him, Guan Tianrong, who is prepared, has room to display his unexpected methods.
They are all too narrow.
"It seems that we have to take that step after all!"
After barely resisting dozens of moves, Yun Xiao knew that if he didn't activate the power of his ancestral veins, it would be impossible to defeat Guan Tianrong.
Moreover, Yun Xiao has always been in passive defense. If the moment comes when his pulse energy is exhausted, I am afraid that even if he wants to activate the power of his ancestral veins, he will be unable to do so.
"Ancestral veins, enlightenment!"
A deep shout resounded deep in Yun Xiao's heart, and then the pulse energy all over his body suddenly surged. About a moment later, a brand new Yun Xiao appeared in front of everyone.
"The pinnacle of the Hua Xuan Realm!"
Guan Tianrong, who had been watching this moment all the time, could not help but look a little solemn under the golden light. The last trace of confusion in his heart was finally gone.
Because in Guan Tianrong's mind before, although Yun Xiao could activate the power of his ancestral veins and improve his pulse energy cultivation to the late stage of Huanxuan Realm in the middle stage of Huanxuan Realm, he might not be able to break through to the late stage of Huanxuan Realm.
It can also improve a small realm.
Such a possibility is not impossible, so Guan Tianrong has been waiting. He wants to see if the stars that stimulate the power of the ancestral veins can still improve the pulse energy cultivation to the peak of Huaxuan Realm?
Now it seems that it was Guan Tianrong who thought too much after all. The power of the ancestral lineage of the young man in black was beyond the imagination of ordinary people. Now that the power of the ancestral lineage is used, he is already on an equal footing with him.
If Guan Tianrong had strong confidence just now, he really felt a little uneasy and fearful now. It wasn't until his eyes vaguely glanced at the still unmoved man in gray robe that he felt a little calmer.
.
At this moment, Guan Tianrong couldn't help but secretly rejoice. Fortunately, he didn't underestimate the boy in black, Xingchen, and had some backup plans, otherwise the boat would have capsized in the gutter today.
At least Guan Tianrong did not expect that Xingchen could break through to the late stage of Huaxuan Realm in such a short period of time. If the difference was two realms, then even if the opponent had strong ancestral power, he would not be defeated.
But at this moment, when Guan Tianrong sensed Yun Xiao's soaring cultivation level, he knew that his chance of defeating the opponent would not be too great.
