Chapter 618 - 247: Divine Chosen, Escape (Part 3)
It’s certainly not bad if Cangming’s backing is willing to risk their lives for some money.
The employer’s territory must be a Four-Star or even Five-Star Territory.
The Celestial Dao World is said to be a world within each territory. Yi Tian believes that powerful indigenous people have the capability to traverse countless territories.
But with the restriction of mist, whether they can fight effectively is another matter.
Yi Tian plans to soar after completing this assessment.
The top 100 on the S-level Combat Power Golden List are all in high-star territories, and only a few have died. It’s clear that some Lords find high-level territories helpless.
Not to mention being separated by endless distances?
The premise is that the Ice and Fire Celestial Palm can incapacitate Cangming and not kill directly.
If Cangming has a method to block the Ice and Fire Celestial Palm, Yi Tian can only consume a Green Star Pill and confront him head-on with the Great Xia Dragon Sparrow Blade.
Otherwise, he might return defeated!
Because neither the Five Elements Divine Light, Infinite Celestial Eye, nor Celestial Blade can breach Cangming’s defense.
Cangming is a being with stronger defense than attack.
Yi Tian noticed Cangming’s varied skills, which would have been acceptable if just one was mastered, with Spear Mastery breaking through to Level 14.
At that point, Yi Tian would not have considered accepting this task.
It also indirectly reflects the great ambition of the Unparalleled Celestial Pride.
Involving all aspects, even engaging in water battles, is the path to becoming a god in the flesh!
If given time for Cangming to grow, though he is a Body Refiner, few Lords would likely be able to outdo him.
"Alright!" The employer is in a precarious and urgent situation, immediately agreeing through consciousness communication.
"Okay, wait a moment," Yi Tian replied.
Yi Tian had little to prepare, just taking a Green Star Pill and bringing the Great Xia Dragon Sparrow Blade.
The main purpose was to perform the Ice and Fire Celestial Palm.
Then consider the next steps.
"Second Turtle! Are you still not coming to save me?"
As Yi Tian prepared, the Mercenary System transmitted the employer’s words.
Listening to it, Yi Tian’s face darkened.
From the tone, Yi Tian knew it must be that guy from Snow Dragon City.
Earlier, he was polite, but now he’s cursing, revealing his true nature.
Yi Tian knows Snow Dragon City’s capabilities very well. Why does it deserve to battle Cangming?
Even consuming a Green Star Pill won’t work, right?
There’s no reason to boast so recklessly at such a high price.
Yi Tian initially thought the employer could hold on longer. Now it seems they’re really out of time.
For the sake of gold, Yi Tian didn’t refuse!
He still accepted this task.
He wouldn’t let personal preference affect such a significant interest.
He took a deep breath, activated Mountain Lifting and Cauldron Carrying, swallowed a Green Star Pill, and heightened his vigilance to the maximum.
"Accepted!"
A white light flashed, and Yi Tian was teleported.
"Swish!"
At the moment of stepping into the employer’s territory, Yi Tian drew out the Great Xia Dragon Sparrow Blade.
No ambush as imagined.
He stepped onto thick snow on the plain, surrounded by corpses everywhere!
"Boom!"
A young Daoist man a hundred meters away, wielding a long spear, was fiercely thrusting at a white protective shield.
Each thrust carried the force of a landslide and tsunami, like thunder.
Probably audible for a hundred miles around.
What’s surprising is that this white protective shield, though cracked, did not break under such heavy blows.
Mysteriously, there was a kind of energy in the world continuously transmitting into the white protective shield.
Some cracks slowly repaired.
But the speed of repair was inferior to the Daoist man’s thrusting with the long spear.
Looking at the plain, it was initially a basic-level city.
Now it’s a ruin, with all the buildings within the city collapsed.
Cang Race, Cangming!
Just as the employer described.
But there’s more; Cangming is surrounded by over a hundred A-level warriors. They’re all mid-stage A-level, all above Level 5 Weapon Mastery, with ten S-level Talent, one SS-level Talent, and one SSS-level Talent, which the employer hadn’t mentioned.
They surely don’t consider A-level warriors a threat? You’ll handle them yourself later!
"Ha ha, hiding turtle! How long can your shell withstand?"
Cangming laughed loudly. But as soon as the white light appeared, his smile froze: "Another one here to die!"
"Take him down!"
Cangming ordered, continuing to attack the employer’s protective shield, not taking Yi Tian seriously.
The SSS-level talent holder quickly moved in front of Yi Tian.
This person had 2900+ three-dimensional attributes, Level 10 Weapon Mastery, and an attack-enhancing talent trait.
"Die!"
He coldly uttered a word, thrusting the long spear like a dragon toward Yi Tian’s chest.
"Clang!"
Yi Tian blocked with the Great Xia Dragon Sparrow Blade, and the spear couldn’t advance an inch.
"Pssh!"
While the Cang Race warrior was shocked, Yi Tian pushed and pressed the Great Xia Dragon Sparrow Blade, directly slicing across his chest.
Blood spurted out, staining the snow. The wound was deep, but not fatal, only disabling him from combat!
"How bold!"
Cangming’s sharp gaze swept towards Yi Tian.
"Infinite!"
With eyes shining, his left eye struck back at Cangming.
In an instant, gray clouds gathered in the sky, pulling Cangming into the Infinite Domain.
"Pathetic trick!"
"Bang!"
Cangming scoffed disdainfully, shattering the Five-color and Hei Bai beams pressing towards him with his fists, stepping out of the Infinite Domain.
Yi Tian’s Infinite had no Mystical Technique augmentation, effective against ordinary Celestial Prides, but insufficient for Cangming.
But Yi Tian didn’t intend to defeat Cangming with Infinite!
Ice and Fire Celestial Palm!
At the moment of releasing Infinite, Yi Tian struck Cangming with his palm.
Cangming’s body was exposed; with his defense, if hit directly, he’d undoubtedly perish.
But such a battle didn’t allow Yi Tian to hold back.
The hundred-meter Ice and Fire Celestial Palm was almost instantaneous, but Cangming’s reaction was quick.
After breaking the Infinite Domain, he thrust his SS-level long spear towards the Ice and Fire Celestial Palm.
"Slash!"
In an instant, Cangming’s combat armor was torn open, and the Cang Race warriors around him, intending to support, were thrown about by the force of Ice and Fire.
Cangming was forced back hundreds of steps but ultimately failed to penetrate Yi Tian’s Ice and Fire Celestial Palm, his spear thrown from his grasp.
The residual power of the Ice and Fire Celestial Palm struck Cangming.
"Pssh!"
Cangming coughed up blood, propelled backward another hundred meters.
Once hitting the ground, ice crystals formed on him.
"Ah..."
The cold and heat pierced to the bone.
Cangming cried out, triggering his Unyielding Will.
"Bang!"
The ice and fire energy on him was shattered by his surging Bloodline Power.
However, Cangming had suffered a severe blow, heavily wounded.
"All gather!"
Cangming shouted to his subordinates.
Those able to move immediately rallied to Cangming.
"Mercenary, you’re strong! I’ll wait for you on that path! Snow Dragon City, you foul-mouthed bastard, next time I’ll kill you! This time, I’ve failed, but you also lose! Ha ha..."
Cangming laughed, taking out a small cyan flag, waving all Cang Race warriors into it, then disappearing into thin air.
When Yi Tian prepared for a subsequent attack, Cangming had vanished without a trace.
He didn’t even have time to check the information on that cyan flag.
The territory of Snow Dragon City isn’t extraordinarily vast. Suddenly, Yi Tian saw Cangming with his subordinates at the mist over ten thousand meters away.
Then with a deep gaze at Yi Tian, he jumped into the mist!
PS: The territory land area was miscalculated, totaling 1570 square kilometers. Additionally, the spiritual power was slightly undercounted, not 2714, but 2715. The data has been corrected.
There’s another update, a bit later. Once the timing adjusts, two updates will be released together. I don’t type quickly, consistently writing over five thousand words per update and pulling all-nighters without slacking.
