Chapter 385 Black Demon Finger
Certainly, it was indeed just a small loss!
As a bona fide Mortal Rank Advanced Meridian Refining Master, Yue Qi naturally possessed a Fire Attribute Ancestor Vein, which happened to be the perfect counter to the Ice Cold Attribute.
After all, Yue Qi’s Meridian Qi Cultivation was much higher than Yun Xiao’s. If the latter were facing a cultivator from either the Meridian Rushing Realm or the Meridian Gathering Realm, it is likely that the power of the Ice Cold Ancestor Vein could freeze the opponent into an ice sculpture.
Facing Yue Qi, the Poison Vein sect’s foremost talent flung his right arm, and with that, a wisp of black flame appeared atop it, enveloping the central arena with its blazing heat.
"Hmph, taste the power of my Ancestor Vein Fire!"
It appeared to be Yue Qi’s Ancestor Vein Fire. He uttered a deep shout, and in the next moment, his arm, shrouded in black flames, fiercely bombarded towards Yun Xiao. His movements surprisingly bore a resemblance to Yun Xiao’s previous attack.
This was the so-called ’using the enemy’s strategy against them.’ Yue Qi had suffered a small setback previously, and now he intended to show everyone watching that the same move would cost Yun Xiao much more than it had cost him.
The Ancestor Vein Fire was not merely the force of the physical body; it was true Meridian Qi unleashed. Clearly, this was Yun Xiao’s weakness, so instead of facing it head-on, he immediately dodged with a swift sidestep, avoiding the powerful blow.
Yun Xiao was not one to act out of false pride; he knew when to advance and when to evade and saw no reason to clash head-on when he was outmatched in terms of Meridian Qi.
What Yun Xiao did not see, however, was the smirk of successful scheming that suddenly appeared on Yue Qi’s face, as if Yun Xiao’s actions had all been within his calculations.
