Does seal script possess great power? My poetry is invincible!

Chapter 86 I'm Not Just a Showpiece

The scorching gas, carrying thick smoke, relentlessly devoured Wang Yan's skin, as if it wanted to melt him in one gulp.

Fortunately, the Blazing Fire Sect robe he was wearing was also emitting a dense array of earth-elemental defensive runes, which slowly absorbed the smoke.

Deacon Jin was still engaged in a fierce sword fight with the fat cultivator at the Condensation Realm in the bushes a few steps away.

The two divine characters, "attack" and "stab," were manipulated by both sides in a very complex manner.

But Butler Kim kept casting worried glances at him.

"No, I'm not useless, I can handle this myself!"

The area is very hot, so it's not suitable to use a "net of heaven and earth".

In Wang Yan's sea of ​​consciousness, the seven characters "Tai Chi uses four ounces to deflect a thousand pounds" were quickly formed again.

Several streams of immense power from heaven and earth stirred up profound energy, swirling the pungent smoke and rapidly transforming it into defensive circles in front of Wang Yan.

The Hundred-Refined Traceless Sword also transformed into a Tai Chi Cloud Hand in his hand, blocking the opponent's sword thrust.

The character "防" (defense) shone brightly in his mind, releasing immense power that strengthened the sword's defensive ring, almost solidifying into an earthy yellow halo.

Mixed in the smoke and fire of the wildfire, it looked like a gradually solidifying earthen wall.

The fire spells of these few members of the Blazing Fire Sect were gradually pushed to both sides by the defensive circle.

A powerful, scorching wave swept in from across the circle, its momentum suggesting it would set Wang Yan's body ablaze.

But soon, they too were drawn into the circle.

A few breaths later, Deacon Jin's voice suddenly came from behind Wang Yan: "Can you still hold on?"

It was Deacon Jin who came over and stood back-to-back with him, fending off the fat cultivator's attacks.

"Yes!" Wang Yan replied solemnly, gritting his teeth as he continuously drew Tai Chi Cloud Hands with his sword, focusing intently on deflecting the opponent's power and the flames that kept emanating from him.

The layers of defensive barriers also engulfed the flames and smoke surrounding Deacon Xiao Jin.

"Clang clang clang..." The sound of intense metal weapons clashing filled the air.

The compound eye perspective allowed Wang Yan to take in all the movements of the enemies.

This time, the tension was even greater than in Wang Yan's previous battles.

They were all a little out of breath.

His arm gradually went numb from the impact of the opponent's three swords.

"Damn it, a bunch of mid-stage Profound Breakthrough Realm experts are ganging up on me, an early-stage one... Tai Chi, Wuhen, it's all up to you two!"

A head-on clash is exhilarating.

Pressure is what drives growth!

The Tai Chi principle of transforming energy and the unyielding sword work together well.

With Deacon Xiao Jin blocking his way from behind, Wang Yan followed the powerful force of the universe transformed by the seven characters of Tai Chi, focusing all his attention on sensing the points of deflection for all the attacks in front of him. He precisely neutralized and blocked each of the enemy's offensive attacks, and even redirected them to attack his opponent.

His entire body surged with profound energy, and the Hundred-Refined Traceless Sword in his hand firmly withstood the enemy's storm-like attack.

Just like Senior Brother Qiao's robust physique, he is solid, safe, and trustworthy.

As another wave of force was released, Wang Yan suddenly felt the pressure on his hands ease.

The powerful defensive circle formed by the seven characters of Tai Chi has been created.

Having become familiar with this multi-faceted confrontation, I stabilized the situation!

We still need more real combat experience to gradually improve our combat effectiveness!

From now on, this handsome guy can proudly say that he is both scholarly and martial!

Wang Yan felt much more at ease and suddenly said in a deep voice, "Uncle Jin, you don't need to worry about me, just kill those two first!"

"Alright!" Deacon Xiao Jin's expression hardened, and he immediately led the fat cultivator and another tall cultivator at the Qi Condensation Realm away a little.

Wang Yan saw that the two Xuanpo Realm cultivators opposite him were angry and wanted to speak.

But after opening his mouth, probably because his throat was still uncomfortable, he angrily shut his mouth again, his eyes filled with even more murderous intent, and his attack became even faster.

"Unfortunately, even after my defensive circle was formed, Uncle Qin couldn't break through my defenses, let alone you!" Wang Yan used the Tai Chi sword technique with even greater skill to parry the group's attacks.

As a PhD in ancient culture, Wang Yan once practiced Tai Chi sword and Tai Chi boxing in Chenjiagou for a period of time in order to study Tai Chi.

It's just that because he could never grasp the concepts of listening to force and neutralizing force, and couldn't find the right entry point to skillfully deflect force, his Tai Chi sword and Tai Chi fist techniques were all just for show.

"I used to be all show and no substance, but now I've grasped the immense power of seal script—'using minimal force to deflect great force'—and know how to apply it. This allows me to leverage external strength and overcome the strong with the weak!"

Of course, Wang Yan was confident that he could kill the two enemies in front of him.

But it will definitely take a lot of energy and be dangerous.

Instead, we should remain unchanged amidst all changes, continue our defense, and truly understand the defensive principles of Tai Chi.

After a dozen or so breaths.

After two piercing screams, the fat cultivator and the tall cultivator, both at the Condensation Realm, were killed by the murderous-looking Deacon Jin.

"Wang Yan, I'm here to help you!" Wang Yan heard Deacon Xiao Jin call out with concern, just as he had hoped.

Then, the two cultivators in front of him changed their expressions and tried to escape, but were killed by the murderous Little Gold Deacon with two swords, their blood splattering into the bushes.

My hands were suddenly empty.

Once he was certain that all of them were dead, their eyes filled with resentment, Wang Yan, whose nerves were on edge, finally let out a long breath. He felt an unbearable soreness in his arm and instinctively stabbed his sword into the ground, panting and trying to catch his breath.

This time, the use of the seven characters of Tai Chi for defense is different from the previous confrontation with Master Qin's piercing gaze.

At that time, it was merely a clash of profound energy with the power of the divine word.

Previously, however, it was a deadly real battle.

He had to swing his greatsword rapidly to block attacks from several opponents, which was extremely mentally taxing, requiring sharp eyesight and quick reflexes.

"Fortunately, the original owner had been cutting paper continuously with Huo Erdan at the paper cutting factory for the past month and a half without slacking off at all, which greatly improved his arm and waist strength."

With the added endurance boost from the "Endurance" divine character, his cultivation level greatly improved, and he could unleash the power of many body-tempering divine characters to help him.

"This was even more dangerous than the last battle against the first-tier Xuanlang! But I still made it through! I do have some combat talent after all!"

At this moment, Butler Jin reached out with concern and supported the swaying man, his gaze gentle: "How are you? Are you hurt?"

The sound was somewhat dry, perhaps because it had inhaled a lot of dry air and smoke.

Wang Yan felt a warmth in her heart and shook her head: "My arm is just sore!"

Upon hearing this, Wang Yan could only manage a wry smile.

It wasn't just Deacon Jin; his own throat was dry and his voice was strained.

He breathed softly, put away the Hundred-Refined Traceless Sword, shook his sore arms, used the three divine characters "Body Speed ​​Recovery" to relieve the pain for a while, then condensed water, drank a few mouthfuls, and fed it to Deacon Xiao Jin.

Deacon Xiao Jin smiled slightly, did not refuse, and opened his mouth to catch it.

Once his throat felt a little better, Deacon Jin looked at him gently: "Your defensive combat technique just now was very impressive! It wasn't taught by the sect."

"No!" Wang Yan smiled slightly and cleared his throat. "But I used it once before, in front of Grandmaster Qin, Uncle Hu, and Qiu Xuankuang. Purely defensive."

Deacon Xiao Jin raised an eyebrow in surprise: "Grandmaster has seen it? This divine script should also be usable for attacking."

You have a good eye!

Wang Yan readily admitted with delight, "I was only thinking about defense before, and just now I also felt that offense was possible. However, I'm afraid of unforeseen complications, so let's wait for you to take the lead!"

He didn't want to admit it, but he simply didn't want to kill a living person with his own hands.
