4589 The Despondent Meng Han
Meng Han quickly cast his bloodline power and secret technique. A red-tinged translucent figure shot out from his body and vanished as quickly as it appeared. Subsequently, his body grew into monstrous proportions, resembling the translucent figure from earlier. He turned into a giant, emitting a red light. Apart from that, the air around him turned frosty. Based on this, it could be seen that he comprehended the law of ice. He was like a frost giant at this moment.
Meng Han brought his gigantic hand down on Feng Qing Yan. It was as though a dark shadow was looming over the entire world. His hand fell looking like he intended to squash Feng Qing Yang like a bug.
Feng Qing Yang looked extremely small in comparison. In fact, he was even smaller than one of Meng Han’s fingers.
The surrounding temperature continued to drop. The terrifying cold quickly permeated the air, seemingly trying to freeze everything. Even the spatial tears seemed to be mending at a much slower rate at this moment.
Just as the hand was about to land on Feng Qing Yang, Feng Qing Yang suddenly vanished into thin air. It was as though he had used the Teleportation Profundity from the law of space. However, it was impossible for even the most skilled user of the law of space to cast the Teleportation Profundity earlier due to the turbulent space. What he had done was used the law of time to slow and stop time briefly. He took advantage of the time and dodged when Meng Han was about to land.
Unsurprisingly, Meng Han and Duan Ling Tian, who did not use his Divine Consciousness, were caught unprepared by this technique.
“The law of time?!”
Meng Han quickly retreated a distance away after his attack missed. At the same time, a foreboding feeling rose in his heart. He had a feeling that Feng Qing Yang was going to follow up with an attack.
Swoosh!
As expected, as soon as Meng Han retreated, a sword ray that seemed capable of piercing time and space shot out toward where he was standing just a moment ago. A long tear appeared in the space immediately. Even from a distance, one could sense the terrifying killing intent of the sword ray.
Although Meng Han would not have been cleaved into two, if he did not retreat in time earlier, he would have been injured.
“I’m not going to hold back anymore,” Feng Qing Yang said calmly as his doppelgangers from the laws appeared one after another. Although his other doppelgangers were inferior to his doppelganger from the law of time, all of them could use the Sword Dao at the seventh stage.
Despite using his Limitless Dao and his bloodline power to turn into a giant, Meng Han fell into a disadvantageous position under the attack of Feng Qing Yang and his doppelgangers. Even if this was a life-or-death battle, he was certain he could retreat even if he could not win. However, if he continued to fight, he knew he would die if it was a serious fight.
After a brief moment, Meng Han said with a sigh, “I’m no match for you.”
Meng Han could not conceal the disappointment on his face as well. He clearly had a hard time accepting this outcome.
Feng Qing Yang was just an unknown intermediate Supreme God not too long ago. He rose to fame when he broke into the Forbidden Realm and overcame the Fatal Heavenly Tribulation before he became a level-seven supreme powerhouse.
In Meng Han’s opinion, Feng Qing Yang likely did not have a solid foundation. He was rather confident that even if he could not thoroughly defeat Feng Qing Yang, he would have the upper hand. The outcome was beyond his expectations.
Feng Qing Yang had rich combat experience and was not inferior to Meng Han. Apart from that, Feng Qing Yang’s law of time surpassed his law of ice, displaying the superiority of the Four Supreme Laws. Although he had the bloodline power, Feng Qing Yang made up for that advantage with his doppelgangers. Even if the doppelgangers were not as strong as Feng Qing Yang, they were not to be underestimated. Even with his current strength, he did not dare to underestimate them.
After Meng Han admitted defeat, Feng Qing Yang smiled faintly and said with a nod, “That was a great match.”
At the same time, Feng Qing Yang felt that his confidence, which was previously demolished by his disciple, had returned. He was not bothered that his disciple defeated him, but his confidence still suffered a blow. Fortunately, his confidence seemed to have returned after he defeated Meng Han. He even thought that if other level-seven supreme powerhouses appeared, they might not be a match for him.
“As expected of Duan Ling Tian’s master. Your strength is impressive,” Meng Han said. Then, he sighed before he turned and said to Duan Ling Tian, “I don’t doubt that you’re stronger than your master, but I’d still like to spar with you to see the difference in our strength. Please give me some time to recover my energy before I spar with you. Don’t hold back please and attack with all your might. I want to see how long I can last against you.”
In Meng Han’s eyes, Duan Ling Tian was even more terrifying than before. Not only was Duan Ling Tian’s Sword Dao at the seventh stage, but his Limitless Dao seemed to be at the seventh stage as well. At the very least, his Limitless Dao was already at the sixth stage. He knew that if Duan Ling Tian used the two Daos, he would not be able to last long in the fight at all.
…
After Meng Han recovered and sparred with Duan Ling Tian, he discovered that his speculation was right. He was thoroughly defeated. He was in a daze as he bade Duan Ling Tian and Feng Qing Yang farewell, unable to recover for a long time. At the same time, he wondered if Duan Ling Tian could be considered human with his strength.
Meanwhile, Feng Qing Yang looked at the despondent Meng Han sympathetically. Then, he shook his head and said to Duan Ling Tian with a wry smile on his face, “Little Tian, don’t you think you went too hard on him? No matter what, you’re still a member of the Jade Tide Heavenly Mansion, right?”
Duan Ling Tian scratched his head and smiled sheepishly. “He told me not to hold back, right?”
Feng Qing Yang sighed and said, “I didn’t expect you to hold back so much when we fought previously.”
After saying that, Feng Qing Yang sat cross-legged and closed his eyes. In just a blink of an eye, a sword ray shot out of his body. It spun around him at alternating speeds, stopping and moving again at intervals. Feeling defeated, he wanted to continue comprehending the Sword Dao, hoping to make progress so he could catch up to his disciple.
Seeing this, Duan Ling Tian only smiled awkwardly before he took his leave.
…
“Ke’er should recover soon, right?”
Recently, Duan Ling Tian had been observing Ke’er, who was recovering in his Little World. He could sense her condition was improving, and it seemed like it would not take long before she regained consciousness.
“I wonder who will be the next level-seven supreme powerhouse…” Duan Ling Tian wondered out loud. He was rather curious about this.
After listening to Meng Han’s words, it was not difficult for Duan Ling Tian to guess that all the level-six supreme powerhouses in the Myriad Worlds and the Outer Boundary must have made preparations. In his opinion, it was not a problem for them to obtain the Heaven Protection Talisman. He speculated that at least half of these people could successfully overcome the Fatal Heavenly Tribulation.
