Chapter 47: Chapter 47- Yang Chen Vs Zhang Zhan (2)
However, it was not over, that one extra sword slash flew towards Zhang Zhan who didn't think that a counterattack was possible at this stage.
BANG... Caught off guard, the sword slash connected and sent Zhang Zhan flying a few meters back wherein he crashed against a tree and slid down its trunk.
The members of the Zhang clan who saw this scene unfold, rubbed their eyes in pure disbelief as if they couldn't believe what they saw. The sixth elder of their clan, a cultivator who was in the Battle Master class was sent flying by a Battle Apprentice.
As absurd as it sounded, the reality lay right in front of them as they saw Elder Zhang Zhan pathetically pick himself up. His clothes around his chest was torn, and there was a big gash from where blood flowed out and stained his clothes red.
His face looked pale and he had a shocked expression plastered to his face. To be able to injure his body, the battle skill used was not ordinary. That said, the reason for his shock was not the battle skill, but the aura that Yang Chen released.
"T-This can't be. How... did his aura raise all of a sudden?" Zhang Zhan muttered under his breath. At this moment, the energy flooding inside Yang Chen's body, was rising at an insane speed.
His aura kept climbing higher and higher unit it reached a level where it could even match the aura of a battle master class practitioner like him.
An emerald green hue covered Yang Chen's eyes, he could feel the three profound nodes near his abdomen, open completely as a wild energy raged across his body. His muscles expanded, veins bulged and his face too faintly turned red.
Yang Chen had activated the first change of the Nine Brilliant Mysterious change. In this state, his aura and strength was no inferior to his battle master realm opponent.
Yang Chen clenched his hands and felt the wild rush of energy rampaging inside his body. If it's in this state, he might be able to win over his enemy.
Though it was the same skill, the level of danger that Yang Chen felt coming from Zhang Zhan, was on a whole different level than when Zhang Bu activated it. There was simply no comparison.
Zhang Zhan was a Battle Master class practitioner and the sixth elder of the Zhang clan. Naturally, his insight and understanding of the battle skill had reached a stage that the likes of Zhang Bu couldn't even match.
If the latter's mastery over the battle skill could be said to be around the intermediate stage of completion, then Zhang Zhan would be at the peak completion stage. The claws and the aura that materialised around him, were very much lifelike and gave others an illusion of an actual lion.
Zhang Zhan attacked, his assaults were as furious as the name of the skill and immediately pushed Yang Chen into a back foot. Now that Zhang Zhan had stopped holding back it was an all out fight.
Of course, Yang Chen matched the aggression of his enemy with an equally powerful attacks. Now that he had activated the secret art, he was no less powerful than the elder himself.
He brandished his Flame Expelling Sword wildly and countered every claw that came with the intention of tearing him apart.
CLANG... CLANG... CLANG... every time the claw and the sword clashed, there would be an intense amount of sparks generating followed by small shockwaves.
The members of the Zhang clan who were around seven and eight star battle apprentice, observed the fight with their mouths agape.
The battle between the two, had reached a level that they had no chance of intervening with their strength. Just a random attack from them, was enough to kill or severely injure a practitioner of their level.
They could only watch from the distance and hope that the elder would be able to bring Yang Chen down. Never in their wildest dream could they have imagined, that a simple slave that was said to have no cultivation talent whatsoever, would turn out to be this strong.
