691: Chapter 687 Sun Palm!
691: Chapter 687 Sun Palm!
To avoid Ye Tian’s pursuit after his victory, the man in black even took a step back, not giving Ye Tian any room to maneuver…
Having gained the upper hand in his moves, a smile immediately appeared on Ye Tian’s face.
“Your force of nature may be formidable, but your tactics are quite cliché, aiming only to snatch the awl in my hand without intending to take my life!
If that’s the case, as long as I give you a slight flaw, you’ll fall into the trap!”
“…”
Ye Tian’s words left the man in black speechless.
After a pause, the man in black could only sigh and say, “King of the Night, I have always been merciful, not wishing to take your life!
However, you have been aggressively comparable, so don’t blame me for being ruthless!”
“You’re going to be ruthless?”
Ye Tian’s expression darkened slightly.
The man in black before him was strong.
If he were to truly exert his full strength, could Ye Tian withstand his attack?
“Come at me then!”
In Ye Tian’s dictionary, there was no word for “retreat.” Even if the man in black was stronger, Ye Tian was determined to fight fiercely with him!
“Then watch carefully!”
As he spoke, the man in black began to muster the power within his body.
Ye Tian could clearly feel the man’s energy bursting, and beyond that, the murderous aura emanating from the man was suffocating.
“It seems…
he’s serious this time…”
Murderous intent doesn’t lie, and the aura radiating from the man in black was a clear sign he intended to kill Ye Tian!
Ye Tian quickly collected his thoughts and responded solemnly…
After the man in black had mobilized all the force in his body, he slowly said, “King of the Night, this palm strike of mine could take your life.
You must watch closely.
The variations hidden within the Palm Force are not something you can handle!
If you defend earnestly, perhaps you might escape with your life!”
The arrogance in his speech was apparent!
Ye Tian also felt the man in black before him was incredibly arrogant, reminding him to defend before making a move.
Could it be that his palm strike was really that powerful?
While doubting the man in black’s exaggerated claims, Ye Tian, who had clairvoyant ability, could clearly see his right palm charging with immense energy, so strong it was suffocating!
Facing such a massive power, Ye Tian naturally couldn’t take it lightly.
He quickly gathered his focus, ready to meet the attack!
“Die, King of the Night!”
The man in black shouted loudly and then slapped his palm forward.
“Eh?”
Ye Tian was taken aback.
This palm strike was heading straight for his forehead, and although the force was formidable, the move itself contained no changes, straightforward and not difficult to defend.
Could it be there were hidden changes within this palm technique?
Thinking of the man in black’s previous words, Ye Tian did not dare to be negligent, staring straight at the man’s palm, watching for any variations in the technique!
However, at this moment, the man in black smirked…
“Taste my ‘Sun Palm’!!”
With a loud cry, the man in black’s right palm burst forth with a strong light, indescribable, like a small exploding sun right in front of Ye Tian’s eyes.
“Swish!”
Ye Tian felt a burst of bright light enter his eyes.
Since he had been watching the man’s palm earlier, he couldn’t close his eyes in time, and the intense light blinded him temporarily.
“Damn it!”
Taken off guard, Ye Tian was unable to see and couldn’t immediately focus to sense the man in black’s movements…
Ye Tian’s arm went numb, and suddenly, several acupoints on his left hand were struck by the man in black, rendering his left hand powerless to gather strength.
Seizing the opportunity, the man in black snatched away the awl that Ye Tian clutched tightly in his hand…
“Hahahaha~~~~~~~ King of the Night, the Ice Heart Awl is mine now!”
The man in black laughed loudly, and Ye Tian could only hear the laughter fading away, before it gradually disappeared.
“Bastard!”
It was a while before Ye Tian finally opened his eyes, feeling a burning indignation within.
He considered himself an experienced master, and yet, was trapped by the man in black during the fight!
He proclaimed his Palm Force to be powerful, but it was just a ruse to make him focus on the man’s palm…
The so-called “Sun Palm” wasn’t a powerful attack technique after all but rather a method for releasing intense light between the palms and temporarily blinding an opponent.
From the beginning to the end, the man in black’s purpose was not to kill him, but to take the awl from him…
“Crash!”
Feeling frustrated, Ye Tian slammed his fist angrily against the nearby wall, punching a large hole in it.
The man in black had taken advantage of his temporary blindness to make an escape, but Ye Tian was not about to give up.
With a powerful leap, he jumped from the rooftop of the building, landing on the rooftop of another building more than ten meters away.
The voice of the man in black had disappeared in this direction, and although hopes were slim, Ye Tian did not give up.
He was determined to find that man in black…
As Ye Tian’s figure disappeared, the hulking man who had barely survived on the rooftop and Ji Ming, the secretary from the municipal department, were all dumbfounded.
They simply couldn’t believe what they had just witnessed!
The eyes of both individuals were stimulated by the “Sun Palm” of the man in black, and at the moment, they could only struggle to open their eyes, yet everything before them remained fuzzy and indistinct….
“Did they…
leave?
Are the two of us…
saved?”
The burly man asked incredulously, but Ji Ming had no idea how to answer.
“You’re asking me?
Who should I ask then?
Your vegetable garden has been destroyed by those two; why don’t you go and settle the score with them?”
“Am I out of my mind!
Confront those two for an account?”
The burly man swore angrily, noticing that Ye Tian and the man in black were already far away, so he hurriedly fled.
No matter how important the rooftop vegetable garden was, it wasn’t as important as his life.
In the man’s heart, he had already begun to consider moving, because if those two returned, the entire building could collapse at any moment.
As for Ji Ming, his legs trembled as he made his way down the building….
He truly had no mood to go back to his government job.
He treated his visit here as if it was just for leisure….
Ji Ming thought if the security team leader of Yun Corporation was this formidable, he must constantly remind his superiors in his future work not to offend Yun Corporation – otherwise, they could level the entire municipal building in a matter of minutes!
Meanwhile, Ye Tian was searching for the man in black’s trail.
However, he found nothing….
Not only was the adversary cunning, but his counter-surveillance capabilities were also extremely strong!
Ye Tian pushed his clairvoyant ability to the limit, yet he couldn’t obtain any clue.
He was sure he hadn’t followed the wrong direction, and with Ye Tian’s clairvoyant ability, he could see an area several kilometers in radius under extreme conditions.
Yet within this area, he found no sign of the black-clad man he had fought, which Ye Tian found odd….
Even if that man’s Qinggong was extraordinary, he couldn’t have dashed out several kilometers in just a few seconds, could he?
Ye Tian was taken aback, but then it dawned on him that the man in black might have changed his disguise!
“That’s it!”
Ye Tian smiled wryly.
The man in black must have hidden himself inside a nearby residential building after escaping his sight, and then stripped off his dark clothes, putting on something more ordinary.
In that case, how could Ye Tian possibly find him?
“Damn it!”
Ye Tian grumbled, upset that after all, he had been made a pawn in someone else’s game!
The only reason he was able to reach this place was because he knew the name “Yi Zhongyuan,” but all this had been orchestrated by the man in black.
The man in black, unable to find the Ice Heart Awl, exploited Ye Tian’s power by utilizing his clairvoyant ability to locate the Ice Heart Awl, then made his move to snatch it!
Moreover, the martial arts skills of the man in black were excellent; the Ice Heart Awl in Ye Tian’s possession was actually stolen by him!
“Could it be that guy knows about my clairvoyant ability?”
Ye Tian muttered to himself.
No second person knew about his clairvoyant ability, not even his closest kin.
But this black-clad person, could he have enticed Ye Tian into his trap by knowing this all along?
The more Ye Tian pondered, the more alarmed he became; but now with no traces of the black-clad man left, where was he to search next?
“Right, the underground Spirit Vein!”
Suddenly, Ye Tian recalled that no matter how well the man in black concealed himself, the reason he stole the Ice Heart Awl must be related to the Spirit Vein beneath Jiangcheng!
Since the Spirit Vein couldn’t move, the man in black had to approach the underground river to harness the Power of Spirit Veins.
Therefore, by lying in wait at the underground river, Ye Tian could guarantee he wouldn’t miss him!
With this thought, Ye Tian immediately rushed towards Jiangcheng’s pedestrian street square without stopping!
“Oh my gosh!
That person is flying!”
“Yeah!
Is he an aerial performer??”
“Wow!
Your joke is so cold!”
“Is it a movie shoot?
But, why don’t I see any wires on him?”
…
Due to the urgency, Ye Tian could no longer care about anything else, instantly employing his Qinggong to leap from one tall building to another.
The bystanders below saw him and were utterly amazed, as if they were witnessing someone flying, and they buzzed with astonished discussions!
It didn’t take long for Ye Tian to arrive at the pedestrian street square, where he immediately concealed his presence and blended into the crowd.
Upon entering the mall, Ye Tian headed straight to the parking garage on the second basement level of the shopping center.
This place was the only known entrance Ye Tian was aware of that led to the underground water vein….
Seeing no one around, Ye Tian slipped through the hidden door and followed the spiraling staircase down, eventually reaching the very bottom.
“Strange?”
Outside the stone door at the bottom was the underground river, and Ye Tian could already hear the murmuring of the water.
However, the seal on the stone door was intact, meaning that no one had been here….
What was going on?
Could it be that the black-clad man, after getting the Ice Heart Awl, wasn’t aiming to harness the underground Spirit Vein, but had some other purpose?
