Chapter 259: Fighting two at the same time!
After realizing the true strength of the Supreme Hegemony Fist, Li Yun felt a deep sense of satisfaction as the heavy power within his body slowly settled, and without wasting any more time, he turned his gaze toward Mu Lan and Wu Lin, his expression returning to calm focus.
"Miss Mu, Wu Lin you two handle the other two demonic martial artists who have taken over the bodies of Martial Ascension Gate disciples. Their strength is around 8th level of Qi Sea Realm so it will be easier to handle them," Li Yun said steadily. "I will deal with Xue Ming and Fan Qing."
Mu Lan gave a slight nod without hesitation, her eyes already shifting toward her targets, while Wu Lin clenched his teeth before nodding as well, clearly aware that the enemies Li Yun had chosen were far more dangerous.
"Good," Li Yun said as he turned back.
His eyes locked onto Xue Ming, who had already transformed into a demonic lizard, his body swollen with power as scales covered his skin, and then shifted to Fan Qing, who still retained a human appearance for the moment, though the demonic aura surrounding him had already begun to intensify.
"Humph, you only managed to kill that mosquito because he was the weakest among us," Xue Ming sneered, his voice filled with arrogance as his eyes glowed with a dangerous light. "I am among the strongest here. My current strength has already reached the Half Step Essence Qi Realm. You think you can defeat me so easily? No... it will be me who kills you and takes over the body of a supreme genius like you."
"We will see," Li Yun replied calmly, his tone steady as if he did not care about those words at all.
In the next instant, both sides moved.
Xue Ming’s massive body lunged forward like a raging beast, while Fan Qing followed closely behind, his speed astonishing as his figure blurred and closed in from another angle, forming a pincer attack that left almost no room for escape.
Li Yun did not retreat.
He activated the Heavenly Lightning Battle Armor to its fullest.
Lightning erupted around his body as his speed surged sharply, and his entire figure seemed to turn into a streak of electric light as he moved between the two opponents with incredible precision.
Boom!
Xue Ming’s claw slammed into the ground, causing it to shatter violently, but Li Yun had already vanished from that position.
At the same time, Fan Qing’s attack cut through the air from the side, but Li Yun twisted his body midair, his lightning armor enhancing both his speed and defensive capability as he narrowly evaded the strike.
The two demonic martial artists were not like the mosquito one.
Their strength was on an entirely different level.
Every movement they made carried terrifying force, and their coordination made it even more dangerous as they continuously attacked from different directions, forcing Li Yun to remain in constant motion.
However, Li Yun remained calm. ’Both of them are at the Half-Step Essence Qi Realm.’ Realizing this, he decided to use his full strength.
His sword appeared in his hand.
"Thunderflame Gale Sword Art, first form, Gale Ignition."
His blade swept forward, and a sharp burst of wind mixed with blazing flames surged outward, cutting through the air as it clashed directly against Fan Qing’s incoming strike.
Boom!
The collision created a violent explosion as flames and wind scattered, and at the same time, lightning from Li Yun’s armor surged outward, enhancing the power of his movement as he shifted his position instantly.
Xue Ming roared as he attacked again, his massive claw tearing through the air with overwhelming strength.
Li Yun stepped forward instead of retreating.
"Second form, Thunderflame Severing."
His sword flashed.
A powerful arc of flame and lightning surged outward, slicing through the incoming attack and forcing Xue Ming to pull back slightly as the force of the strike collided against his scales.
At the same time, Fan Qing appeared behind Li Yun once more, his attack swift and precise as he aimed directly for Li Yun’s blind spot.
Li Yun did not turn.
He simply raised his hand.
The Supreme Hegemony Fist.
The moment that heavy pressure appeared, Fan Qing’s expression changed instantly as his instincts screamed danger, and without hesitation, he abandoned his attack and retreated rapidly.
Boom!
Li Yun’s fist struck the empty air, yet the shockwave alone caused the ground below to crack violently.
Xue Ming’s pupils contracted slightly as he witnessed this.
"That fist..." he muttered, a trace of caution appearing in his eyes.
From that moment onward, both demonic martial artists became wary.
Whenever Li Yun’s fist tightened and that oppressive force began to gather, they would immediately choose to dodge rather than block, clearly understanding that taking that attack head on would be extremely dangerous.
Like that the battle between them intensified.
Li Yun moved like a bolt of lightning, weaving between their attacks while continuously launching counterattacks.
"Thunderflame Gale Sword Art, Gale Ignition."
"Thunderflame Gale Sword Art, Thunderflame Severing."
Each strike was executed at the perfection stage, and even without using any intent, the sheer mastery of the technique allowed Li Yun to clash directly against the two opponents at the same time.
As the battle continued, Fan Qing was the one who suffered the most injuries. His entire body was littered with burn marks from flames and lightnings.
"You bastard! I will kill you!" Seeing this, Fan Qing shouted in rage as his aura surged violently.
In no time, his body began to change as well.
A low growl escaped his throat as his muscles expanded, and dark patterns spread across his skin while parts of his body transformed, giving him a half demonic beast appearance that drastically increased his physical strength and speed.
His attacks became even more ferocious.
Xue Ming roared as well, his demonic form becoming more violent as both of them unleashed their full strength together, their combined pressure filling the battlefield.
Yet Li Yun did not falter.
His eyes remained calm.
His movements remained precise.
"Third form, Tempest Collapse."
Li Yun raised his sword, and in the next instant a massive storm of flame, wind, and lightning erupted outward, colliding directly with the combined attacks of Xue Ming and Fan Qing.
The explosion shook the entire battlefield.
The three figures clashed again and again, their movements too fast to follow as shockwaves spread in all directions, and despite facing two powerful opponents whose strength far surpassed the mosquito demonic martial artist, Li Yun continued to hold his ground.
From time to time, his fist would tighten.
And each time it did, the two demonic martial artists would retreat instinctively, unwilling to face the Supreme Hegemony Fist directly.
In this way, Li Yun controlled the rhythm of the battle.
With his speed, his defense, and his mastery of the Thunderflame Gale Sword Art at perfection, he fought against the two of them at the same time without falling into disadvantage.
The battlefield had turned into a chaotic storm of destruction, yet at its center, Li Yun stood firm, facing both enemies without a trace of fear.
From the side, Mu Lan and Wu Lin were shocked seeing the intense battle between them.
Mu Lan’s eyes flashed as a thought came to her mind. ’His strength has definitely reached the level of geniuses in the Hidden Dragon Ranking, but sadly, like me, he was born a little late. The Hidden Dragon Tournament is only half a year away. With our strength we can only rank around top 100 this time.’
