Chapter 95

Update Time: May 15, 2013

Tang Tian looked at his fist, his expression full of surprise.

Suddenly, he threw a punch, and the air around his fist seemed to ripple like the wrinkles caused by a breeze, creating countless intricate shock waves. A cold light flashed in Tang Tian's eyes, and he threw another punch. When the punch was launched, it produced a low, resonant tremor, like the vibration of a string.

The familiar sensation seemed to emanate from deep within him. Without stopping, Tang Tian continued to punch, one after another, each faster than the last!

Only after completing a full set of Shocking Fist did he reluctantly stop, still feeling a bit unsatisfied. The information contained in the Gold Card was extremely rich, representing profound insights. These insights felt as if they had come from Tang Tian's own long-term cultivation, far more intricate and profound than those from the Silver Card. The Gold Card could preserve a cultivator's insights with 100% accuracy.

"Indeed, the Gold Card lives up to its name, it's so powerful!" Tang Tian exclaimed, filled with emotion. Suddenly, a thought struck him: "Hey, Uncle, what would happen if I used several Gold Cards at once?"

Bing was taken aback, also stunned by Tang Tian's sudden idea: "I don't know. In our time, Soul General Cards were not as advanced or common as they are now."

Tang Tian scratched his head, also intrigued by his own idea.

After hesitating for a long time, Tang Tian couldn't resist: "Why don't we give it a try?"

He now had a typical nouveau riche mentality, feeling that his resources were abundant. Spending a few hundred points to try it out was still within his means. Tang Tian, being a man of action, immediately used another card without a second thought.

"Wow, they don't conflict at all!" Tang Tian exclaimed, his face full of excitement.

Indeed, they didn't conflict. Tang Tian used the [Hand Moon Blade], and without a second thought, he formed his hands into a blade, a faint light enveloping his palm. He executed several swift slashes, and several crescent-shaped blade auras appeared in the air. The attack style of the Hand Moon Blade was unique, primarily using slashing techniques with a very small range, often pivoting at the shoulder, elbow, or wrist, with bizarre and swift movements.

Without a second thought, Tang Tian used the other two Gold Cards.

When he used the fourth Gold Card, Tang Tian immediately sensed something was wrong. The true energy inside his body suddenly became extremely chaotic, and he couldn't help but let out a muffled groan. Tang Tian didn't realize that using too many Soul General Cards at once could easily lead to problems. The chaotic true energy felt like needles stabbing him, wreaking havoc inside his body.

The complex insights suddenly surged into his mind, and it felt as if he had been hit by a heavy punch, his mind going blank.

But at that moment, his martial soul suddenly emitted a faint silver light, and countless insights and information were absorbed into his martial soul like a flood. The chaotic true energy inside his body suddenly calmed down, as if the chaos had been just an illusion.

Tang Tian immediately regained his clarity.

Martial Soul!

It's the Martial Soul!

With a thought, countless insights flooded his mind. Whether it was the [Shocking Fist], [Hand Moon Blade], [Bashangnu Zhi], or [Zhan Yi Die], the insights flowed into his mind like a stream.

The Martial Soul had this function!

Tang Tian was both surprised and delighted, but also a bit frightened. That moment had been extremely dangerous.

"You should spend more time absorbing these insights, otherwise, they will all dissipate when the time comes," Bing reminded Tang Tian, a cold light flashing in his eyes. "You can go and practice with Jing Hao. I believe he would be very willing."

Tang Tian's eyes lit up. "What a great idea!"

Without a second thought, he ran off to find Jing Hao. When Jing Hao heard Tang Tian's idea, he readily agreed, as he had always wanted to test Tang Tian's abilities. When he learned that Tang Tian had used four Gold Cards at once, he was stunned.

After a moment, he regained his composure: "A Silver-level martial soul is indeed powerful! It can withstand four Gold Cards at once. Brother Tang, in the future, be cautious about using too many Soul General Cards at once, especially high-level ones. If not for your astonishing martial soul, this could have been dangerous."

Tang Tian, feeling a bit uneasy, nodded in agreement.

Jing Hao was momentarily lost in thought, the strength of the Silver martial soul, which could withstand four Gold Cards, making him even more excited.

He composed himself, facing Tang Tian, and said, "Brother Tang, don't hold back!"

"Alright!" Tang Tian's spirit was lifted, and he lunged forward, throwing a punch.

Buzz!

Countless ripples spread out from Tang Tian's fist.

Jing Hao's expression remained unchanged. With a clang, his long sword was drawn, and a sharp point of light struck Tang Tian's fist. Tang Tian felt a powerful true energy surge into his meridians along the sword tip. He let out a muffled groan, his left palm forming a blade, and his elbow twitched, launching three crescent-shaped blade auras in a triangular formation, aiming for Jing Hao's center.

Jing Hao's eyes lit up, and his sword trembled like a snake striking. With a series of claps, the three crescent-shaped blade auras were extinguished in mid-air.

This brief respite allowed Tang Tian to dispel Jing Hao's sword intent. He let out a long whistle and threw another punch.

This punch was different from the previous ones. The faint crackling sounds were continuous, like bamboo thrown into a bonfire.

Tang Tian's Shocking Fist was now infused with the Heavenly Dragon Force!

Although Tang Tian had only grasped a bit of the Heavenly Dragon Force, its fierce and explosive nature was evident.

"Good!" Jing Hao cheered, a hint of surprise in his eyes, his fighting spirit growing stronger. Without dodging, he launched a dazzling sword beam that accurately struck Tang Tian's fist.

Tang Tian felt a force several times stronger than before surge into his body, causing him to lose control and retreat seven steps.

Jing Hao, however, had a different experience. Tang Tian's punch contained three layers of force!

The inherent shock force of the Shocking Fist, the fierce and explosive Heavenly Dragon Force, and the sharp and cutting Crane Force!

Despite his true energy being two levels higher than Tang Tian's, he still had to retreat three steps.

Jing Hao, encountering such an unprecedented force for the first time, was greatly excited. He let out a long whistle and changed his strategy, taking the initiative to attack.

The sword intent tore through the air, the light cold and piercing!

In an instant, it seemed as if the entire crack was illuminated by Jing Hao's sword.

Tang Tian showed no fear, sinking into a horse stance and adopting a defensive posture. His left hand formed a crescent moon blade, and his right hand the Bashangnu Zhi. The cold crescent moon blade aimed for Jing Hao's lower body, while the Bashangnu Zhi, a bright red beam, whistled low.

Clang!

Jing Hao's sword seemed to come alive, like a snake stretching its body, and the blade circled.

Tang Tian's crescent moon blade and Bashangnu Zhi were caught within, and the sword twisted.

True energy surged, and both figures were shaken. Tang Tian's mind became clear, a cold light flashing in his eyes. He changed his Bagua Steps, appearing like a ghost beside Jing Hao, and kicked out with his foot.

Clap, clap, clap!

Tang Tian's movements were light and agile, his legs kicking in rapid succession!

Jing Hao's figure bent, and he took a step.

Experiencing it firsthand, Tang Tian realized how fast Jing Hao's steps were. Almost instantly, Jing Hao disappeared from sight, but Tang Tian's intuition was incredibly sharp. Without hesitation, he continued his rapid kicks.

The fierce and explosive Heavenly Dragon Force, combined with the rapid kicks, produced a series of crisp explosions, like fireworks. Tang Tian's leg movements were like a raging tide, sweeping toward Jing Hao.

Jing Hao was greatly surprised by the variety and unpredictability of Tang Tian's attacks, something he had never encountered before.

He steadied himself, his wrist trembling.

Clang, clang, clang!

The sounds of their collision were clear and rapid.

Tang Tian's stamina was naturally not as enduring as Jing Hao's. After several dozen strikes, the frequency of his kicks slowed slightly. But this small change was immediately detected by Jing Hao, who, without a second thought, increased the intensity of his sword light, sweeping back!

It was like a dazzling sphere of sword light suddenly bursting forth.

Tang Tian's figure was completely enveloped by the sword light.

Jing Hao's sword technique was extremely powerful, each strike clear and distinct, yet making it impossible to avoid. It was also incredibly fast. Tang Tian felt an immense pressure, as if he had returned to his training days, struggling to defend himself, looking quite disheveled.

For a full ten breaths, he couldn't launch a single effective counterattack.

Complete suppression!

Jing Hao was also greatly shocked. Tang Tian was only at the fourth level, not even breaking through to the fifth, while he was already at the sixth level! A sixth-level fighter against a fourth-level one should be an easy victory. But the reality was far different from what he had imagined!

Although Tang Tian was suppressed and looked disheveled, he managed to withstand Jing Hao's fierce attacks. Despite his true energy being only at the fourth level, far inferior to Jing Hao's, it contained the Heavenly Dragon Force and Crane Force, making it unusually strange and difficult to deal with.

But what made Tang Tian the strongest was his intuition! An incredibly powerful intuition! Several times, Jing Hao detected a weakness in Tang Tian, but Tang Tian seemed to sense it in advance and quickly made up for it. Many times, Tang Tian looked so disheveled that Jing Hao thought a single strike would end the battle, but each time, Tang Tian managed to block it.

The pace of their attacks was extremely fast.

But after ten minutes, Jing Hao still hadn't defeated Tang Tian.

How could this be...

Jing Hao was increasingly shocked. He could feel the resistance from Tang Tian growing stronger. Tang Tian's understanding of martial techniques was rapidly improving, especially his Heavenly Dragon Force, which was beginning to show its power. What surprised Jing Hao was that Tang Tian's true energy, despite being only at the fourth level, could sustain him for so long!

He only had fourth-level true energy, right?

Fortunately, Jing Hao soon noticed that Tang Tian's true energy was starting to show signs of fatigue, and he breathed a sigh of relief.

This guy...

However, Tang Tian stubbornly held on for another five minutes. The technique of using an opponent's force against them, [Zhan Yi Die], was used skillfully by Tang Tian. Jing Hao hadn't expected that even in such a desperate state, Tang Tian could maintain such a calm mind, which was terrifying...

Bang!

Tang Tian's defenses finally broke, and he was struck by the back of Jing Hao's sword, flying away like a sandbag.

Jing Hao let out a long sigh, only then realizing how much pressure Tang Tian had put on him. He sat down to recover his true energy.

An hour later, Tang Tian suddenly jumped up, shouting, "Again!"

Jing Hao's spirit was also lifted. "Alright!"

An hour for one match.

...

Six hours later, Tang Tian jumped up again, roaring, "Again!"

Jing Hao's face stiffened, gritting his teeth, "Alright!"

...

Ten hours later, Tang Tian jumped up, shouting, "Again!"

Jing Hao's mouth twitched, weakly saying, "Alright..."

...

Twenty hours later, Tang Tian jumped up, roaring, "Again!"

Jing Hao's eyes went wide, "..."
