The clash off the two experts was enough to shock and excite the audience.
But among them there were a few that were concerned by it.
"Brother Mu Lin…" Ming Dandan clenched her fists upon seeing the scene of Lin Mu getting restrained.
"NO!" And in the next moment, they saw him getting stick by Tian Ning's fist.
he power of the attack was immense, and a bright blue light covered everything, preventing them from seeing what was happening. Lu Xu and Qian Wen also narrowed their eyes showing some concern. Luo Liqin had a frown on his face and was a bit surprised by Tian Ning.
'He's a lot stronger than was estimated to be.' Luo Liqin thought.
~BANG~
Only the sound of a loud explosion was heard while the audience shouted in excitement. Even though Lin Mu's companions were all sitting in the Spring Valley Restaurant, the voice of the crowd could be heard all the way here due to the sheer number of them.
Not to mention, all of them were cultivators making their shouts even louder.
"WHOAAAAAAA!"
Even though they were all sitting in the
Ming Dandan closed her eyes, unable to see and think about what might have happened to Lin Mu. But a few seconds later she heard her sister's voice.
"It's not over yet, look!" She pointed to the formation screen.
Lin Mu was hurtled back upon being struck by Tian Ning's fist. The power of the attack was enough to rip away his robes, leaving his torso bare now. Even though the robe could repair itself, the remnant power of Tian Ning's attack was preventing it from doing so.
It wasn't just the robe that was damaged either.
There was a fist mark scorched onto Lin Mu's chest while fine cracks could also be seen on his skin.
'The True Gold Body Forging Arts is unable to defend fully…' Lin Mu observed.
He was still numbed from the attack and couldn't control himself right away as his body kept on flying away. The spatial plane was mostly flat, thus there was nothing to stop his flight. He flew in an upward trajectory and kept on rising.
But it didn't mean that Lin Mu had lost focus. His eyes were sharp and his immortal sense was already scanning all the area around him. He had already estimated where he would be landing based on the trajectory of his flight as well as where Tian Ning was.
'My insides are shaken too, that's rather new.' Lin Mu thought.
Due to the properties of the Lightning element, they had invaded his body too. Thankfully, his internal organs were already recovering. The vitality stored in his flesh and organs surged out, fixing all the damage that had happened.
The only thing that wasn't being repaired right away was the cracks on Lin Mu's chest as well as the fist mark.
'I need to push out Tian Ning's Immortal Qi first!' Lin Mu gathered his Earth Elemental Immortal Qi within his chest before letting it pour out of it!
~ZZZT~
When he did that, the lightning elemental immortal Qi was also pushed out, ejecting the remnants.
~CRACKLE~
At the same time, the skin started to repair itself. Vital essence poured into it and healed it all. Even the scorch mark disappeared within seconds and Lin Mu recovered from his numbness.
~HUU~
Then taking a deep breath, he assumed control of his flight stopping mid air.
~WHOOSH~
The sudden stopping caused the air to be wisped up, sending a wave of wind backwards. After all, he had been sent flying at a relatively high speed.
'I'm nearly three kilometers away…' Lin Mu estimated his distance from Tian Ning.
A single attack had managed to send him this far back.
It was clear that if the fight had happened in the ring, there was no way the immortals would be able to fight to their full extent.
Tian Ning was standing at his original position with a stiff expression on his face. He was looking at his fist that had a bruise on it and could feel the pain coming from his fingers.
'My finger bones are cracked… it was like I struck a sheet of thousand year tempered cold iron when I hit him.' Tian Ning thought to himself.
He hadn't expected such a reaction from hitting Lin Mu. Especially when his fist was clad in the lightning. It was supposed to be protected and even sharp weapons wouldn't be able to cut through them. And yet he had injured himself in such a way.
'So he really is a Body cultivator… and hasn't even used that yet.' Tian Ning thought to himself as he looked in the direction of Lin Mu.
His immortal sense extended further and detected Lin Mu who was standing mid air. Looking at his body, Tian Ning saw that there was no sign of injuries other than the tattered robe.
"And so far he's only used his Qi cultivation base and its skills… he was only using his body cultivation to defend… is he looking down on me?" Tian Ning's expression turned a bit fierce.
~RUMBLE~
He clenched his fists as lightning surged all over his body.
"COME! SHOW ME WHAT YOU ARE TRULY CAPABLE OF! I'LL SHOW YOU TOO!" Tian Ning roared as the sound of thunder could be heard.
A dense layer of lightning crawled over all his body and the tattoos glowed brightly. The blue lightning covering him started to increase in quantity as well as intensity.
Tian Ning's form started to grow, lightning turning into a massive suit of armor for him. It continued to grow until eventually, Tian Ning had reached a height of Ten meters!
The immortal Qi fluctuations coming from him rose as well and quickly reached the Fifth Tribulation Stage of the Immortal Realm!
"I'll show you what tied my fight against the Third Prince!" Tian Ning shouted. "Thunderclap Nine Heavens Technique! THUNDER TITAN FORM!"
~BOOM~
A pulse of energy spread out from the armor, making the ground tremble.
