Chapter 4289: Careless Ending
Chapter 4289: Careless Ending
The exploration this time could possibly go very smoothly. After undoing the restrictions, there was a large storehouse of Source Dao Stones inside. They would divide it up and then flee. However, there could also be twists and turns, and who knew what kind of dangers they would encounter.
Thus, Ling Han and Ding Shu both decided to suspend accepting battles. If anything really happened, they could use "seclusion" as an excuse to draw a clear dividing line between them and the matter.
However, they had just gone to the Dark Battlefield, and had not even applied for an application, when they received a battle notification.
Their next opponent... was actually each other!
"Interesting," Ding Shu said with a smile. "Ling Han, I've always wanted to spar with you."
Ling Han put away the notice. If he continued to call a ceasefire at this time, it would be considered as deliberately avoiding battle, and would be counted into those three times. "Sure," he nodded. In any case, he did not lack the time for a battle.
"Oh, it's this afternoon." Ding Shu patted Ling Han's shoulder, and said, "I won't go easy on you. If you're too weak, you'll lose very badly."
"Don't worry, the one who will lose will definitely be you." Ling Han also patted Ding Shu's shoulder.
The two of them were now in a cooperative relationship, but with their high natural talent, they would definitely be the strongest opponents in the competition for the imperial throne in future. Perhaps, their battle would last their whole life, right until someone became Emperor.
Just like how the Ancestral King Lingtian and the Nine Suns Sainthad fought to the end all those years ago. They had both won and lost, and until the last moment, it was really unknown who would emerge victorious.
"Then I shall anticipate the battle in the afternoon."
"Same to you."
The two of them did not return. They merely rested for a short while in the Dark Battlefield, to adjust their condition. After all, it could not be said that their opponent was not strong.
It wasn't long before afternoon arrived.
The Dark Battlefield also placed a considerable amount of importance on these two people, vacating the other areas of battle, allowing the two of them to attack as much as they liked.
And when they received the news, the spectators also gathered.
Ling Han's strength had long since been proven through battle merits. In fact, he had even gained the title of "One Punch King", and as for Ding Shu, he was also extraordinary. After entering into the Dark Battlefield, he had never lost.
However, now that the two of them had met today, it was destined that one of them would be defeated, and their record of being unbeatable would be broken.
On the spectators' seats, everyone was cheering as if they had been pumped full of adrenaline.
Zuwa An, Mi Qingdie, and the other second-generation young masters all arrived to watch the battle, each with their own thoughts.
Meanwhile, Ling Han and Ding Shu stood 30 meters away from each other. They both appeared calm and composed, not showing any signs of anger.
"Come," Ding Shu said. Then, he changed his sloppy attitude, and exuded a blazing fighting spirit. The Regulations materialized, turning into a giant tree that reached the heavens behind him, possessing a terrifying intimidation.
They hadn't even made a move yet, and merely the suppression of their aura was enough to make countless people's expressions turn ugly, and they almost vomited blood.
Too strong!
Ling Han was naturally unmoved. He activated his eye technique, and swept his gaze over Ding Shu's body. Only by knowing one's own strength and the strength of one's enemy would one be able to win a hundred battles.
Very soon, a strange smile appeared on his face.
Because... Ding Shu was in the fourth form of the True Self Tier!
Why was there a gap of a minor level between them?
This was very normal. This was because Ling Han had entered this place a year before Ding Shu had, and this one year had allowed him to advance from the Third Form to the Fourth Form. In the outside world, just how many natural treasures would you have to refine to be able to advance so quickly?
Perhaps even the Imperial Clan would have to give it their all to be able to do so, but the Buddhist Race of the North Heavenly Realm could only be considred a Saint-level force, so they naturally could not accomplish that.
Thus, Ding Shu's cultivation level was left behind by Ling Han, even though it was only a minor level.
His cultivation level was even lower than Ling Han, and he still wanted to defeat him. Wasn't that a joke?
Forget it.
Ling Han suppressed his cultivation level for a moment. He couldn't bully others, so he might as well suppress his raw power to the same level as Ding Shu before battling.
"Come!" Ding Shu moved, and the Tree of Regulations behind him swayed. Xiu, xiu, xiu! Countless leaves shot out like darts towards Ling Han.
These leaves were formed by Regulations. If one was cut, it would definitely cause serious injury.
The spectators were all on edge. If these "leaves" were blasted to their side, it would lead to a great catastrophe.
Under the Spirit Transformation Tier, there was absolutely no one that could block it.
However, Ling Han crossed his arms behind his back and simply propped up the Starlight
Screen.
Hiss, you want to block it just like that?
Everyone was surprised. This was too conceited, wasn't it?
Xiu, xiu, xiu! The leaves of Regulations landed on the shield, and instantly exploded with endless light. Sure enough, though the Starlight Screen was awesome, it could not withstand such a mad barrage of attacks, and was soon shattered.
The remaining power was boundless, and it continued to blast towards Ling Han. Peng, peng, peng! Light exploded chaotically.
'What?'
Everyone's mouths were wide open, and they could see that Ling Han was standing proudly and motionless, as if that was not a terrifying attack that had been formed by Regulations, but merely a gentle breeze.
With the help of the Starlight Screen, how could a power attack within six Heavens possibly
hurt Ling Han?
Ding Shu naturally wouldn't care. If Ling Han couldn't even block such a simple attack from him, then what right did he have to treat him as a rival?
'Die!'
He leaped out, and charged towards Ling Han.
Peng!
Ling Han took this blow head-on, yet his figure suddenly swayed, and took a few steps back.
"Haha, you didn't expect this, did you?" Ding Shu laughed loudly.
Ling Han nodded and said, "Who would've thought? You've also completed Body Arts!"
He had not thought that Ding Shu's Body Art had already caught up to his cultivation level. Thus, the power that he delivered was slightly weaker, and he was no match for Ding Shu. "If that wasn't the case, how could my cultivation speed have slowed down so much!" Ding Shu said. Then, he frowned, "Why is your power weaker than mine? Yi, you didn't deliberately
suppress your power, right?"
Ling Han cracked a smile, "Apologies, I am already in the fifth form."
Ding Shu couldn't help but feel gloomy. What he wanted was a battle to his heart's content, but Ling Han had suppressed his cultivation level, so what meaning was there to it? "I'm not fighting anymore." He was very willful, and directly turned around and left. "I've lost this battle. When our cultivation levels are equal, we'll fight again!"
Ling Han sighed. At first, he had wanted to suppress his cultivation level and spar with Ding Shu. He had not thought that the latter would actually have finished mending the shortcoming in his Body Art, causing him to make an error in his estimation. He was done
after only two moves.
Forget it, they would battle again in the future.
Ling Han shook his head, and also exited the Dark Battlefield, leaving behind the
dumbfounded spectators.
It ended just like that?
'Are you guys playing house?'
And precisely because of this, Ling Han and Ding Shu's request for a ceasefire was not
approved. Instead, they were subjected to a war of attrition. If they called a ceasefire, then there was no longer any need for them to appear in the Dark Battlefield again in future. In fact, they would be chased out of the City of Death.
There was nothing else that could be done. Ling Han and Ding Shu could only decide to
postpone their plans.
Right at this moment, another supreme prodigy entered the City of Death.
Jade Drop Imperial Clan, Han Di
This was one of the well-known members of the Silver Generation. The moment he enteredNôv(el)B\\jnn
into the Dark Battlefield, he challenged Ling Han to a mortal duel, his words filled with
extreme contempt.
Han Di, named as Emperor, his confidence and arrogance was clear for all to see.
