Chapter 368: Dodging
Lin Feng's eyes were icy. He swayed, dodging Wang Lu's fists. At the same time, his right hand shot out and seized Wang Lu's throat.
"Nngh..."
Wang Lu let out a muffled grunt. He struggled with all his might, trying to escape Lin Feng's grasp, but Lin Feng's hand was like it was forged from steel, holding him in a vise-like grip, rendering him unable to move an inch.
Seeing this, the corner of Lin Feng's mouth curled into a smirk. "How about it? Still think you have this in the bag?"
Hearing Lin Feng's words, Wang Lu's expression changed. He felt a profound sense of humiliation, and Lin Feng's taunt sent him into a rage.
His pupils constricted to pinpricks as he glared at Lin Feng and snarled, "You bastard. You dare humiliate me!"
Lin Feng gave Wang Lu a cold glance and said, "Humiliate you? Heh. I'm merely stating a fact."
"Since you're unwilling to admit defeat, then let's continue!"
With that, Lin Feng thrust out both fists and attacked Wang Lu again.
'Damn it, this bastard's strength is insane. I'm actually having trouble withstanding his attacks.'
Beads of sweat broke out on Wang Lu's forehead, his face a mask of frustration. This guy's strength was clearly beyond his imagination, and Lin Feng's speed was also surprisingly fast.
He had to admit that Lin Feng did indeed possess strength comparable to his own, and was even superior when it came to technique.
After all, the combat techniques Lin Feng had honed through countless life-and-death battles were not something that could be developed overnight.
Though Wang Lu was arrogant, his aptitude for martial arts was quite poor. If he hadn't joined the Lv Family and obtained some resources, he might not have even been able to break through to the Peak of Late Stage Innate.
Therefore, despite possessing considerable strength, he was at a great disadvantage when facing a true expert because he lacked advanced martial arts techniques.
But Wang Lu wasn't worried. During their exchange just now, he had already figured out Lin Feng's patterns.
'This guy's moves are intricate, but in terms of strength, he's still a bit weaker than me. He always relies on the finesse of his techniques to wear down my own power, and his speed isn't all that fast either.'
Wang Lu took a deep breath. His palms blurred as he instantly sent out seven or eight Palm Seals, which came whistling toward Lin Feng.
Lin Feng's eyes were as sharp as swords. Instead of retreating, he advanced to meet the attack head-on. With a single step, his body soared into the air like a flood dragon plunging into the sea, his presence as overwhelming as a tiger's!
Seeing this, Wang Lu couldn't help but gasp, his eyes filled with solemnity and dread.
'This guy is too fast!'
His mind raced. He knew he had to pull out one of his trump cards.
'Otherwise, if this drags on any longer, it won't do me any good. I might even get careless and suffer an unexpected defeat.'
"HYAAH!"
Wang Lu let out a low roar as his entire body suddenly seemed to expand. His clothes billowed, and veins bulged on his skin, squirming like earthworms.
BOOM!
Wang Lu's aura surged, reaching a new peak. His eyes turned bloodshot as he stared at Lin Feng like a wild beast.
His frame seemed to swell, and his presence grew even more terrifying, as if he had transformed into a humanoid beast that inspired fear in all who saw him.
Lin Feng's eyes narrowed. 'This is getting dangerous.'
But Lin Feng didn't back down. Instead, he grew even more fired up. He threw his head back and let out a long cry as the Inner Strength in his body began to boil. A surging, torrential power rushed through his entire being.
The bones throughout Lin Feng's body cracked and popped, and his muscles coiled and knotted, becoming as hard as blocks of steel.
His presence strengthened wildly, like a flash flood, surging relentlessly.
With a flicker of his body, he lunged at Wang Lu.
Lin Feng's speed increased severalfold. He moved like a phantom, closing the distance in the blink of an eye.
"Haha, bring it on! Even if I die today, I'm taking you down with me!"
Wang Lu laughed savagely, his body ramrod straight. He looked as if he welcomed death, ready to use his own body to stop Lin Feng, utterly fearless.
BANG!
The two collided like a giant wave smashing against a reef, kicking up a heaven-storming tsunami!
'What the hell did this guy do? His strength is incredible!'
Lin Feng's brows knitted together. As he sensed Wang Lu's aura, a look of surprise flashed across his face.
'This Wang Lu is like a steel plate, completely flawless. I can't find a single opening.'
His arms were like steel blades, parrying every one of Lin Feng's strikes, no matter how he attacked.
Finally, Wang Lu whipped an arm out and wrapped it around Lin Feng's waist. With a fierce yank, he tried to pull Lin Feng down.
But Lin Feng was as agile as a fish. With a light tap of his toes on the ground, he drifted to the side, avoiding the embarrassment of being thrown to the ground.
A cruel smile appeared on Wang Lu's face. He raised his right arm, his fingers flashing with a cold light as he stabbed at Lin Feng's neck.
Lin Feng's gaze was sharp. He leaned forward abruptly, dodging Wang Lu's attack, then immediately swept a roundhouse kick toward Wang Lu's head.
CLANG!
A powerful force traveled through the point of impact, making Wang Lu's arm go numb.
'Damn it, how is this guy so strong?'
Wang Lu cursed inwardly. He was burly and powerfully built, while Lin Feng was only about 1.8 meters tall, yet Lin Feng's strength was terrifyingly great. He felt like a tank, utterly oppressive.
'No, I can't get entangled with him anymore. Otherwise, this guy will wear me down to death sooner or later!'
Wang Lu's eyes narrowed. Gritting his teeth, he squatted slightly, planted his right hand on the ground, and then launched himself upward, his movements as swift as a cheetah's.
Wang Lu moved toward Lin Feng like a phantom, his speed reaching its absolute limit.
The next moment, Wang Lu's hands clamped down on Lin Feng's shoulders. He used all his strength, twisting with both hands, trying to dissipate Lin Feng's momentum.
CRACK!
But Lin Feng's body was as hard as iron. Wang Lu's palms went numb, but he still couldn't completely neutralize Lin Feng's momentum.
He had only managed to neutralize about two-thirds of it.
"Get down!"
Wang Lu roared, putting all his strength into his arms and slamming Lin Feng onto the ground.
Wang Lu sat down hard on Lin Feng's chest, raised his right leg, and viciously slammed his knee into Lin Feng's sternum.
Lin Feng's chest suffered a violent impact. He was in agony, feeling as if all his internal organs had been displaced as an indescribable pain washed over him.
Wang Lu looked down at the completely pinned Lin Feng, his eyes full of derision and mockery.
He looked down on Lin Feng from his superior position, a sneer on his face as he indifferently spat out four words.
"Trash is just trash!"
However, Lin Feng's reaction stunned Wang Lu. He could actually see a trace of disdain in Lin Feng's eyes.
"Heh," Lin Feng scoffed.
The composure Wang Lu had just recovered instantly shattered, and he flew into a rage again. He clearly had the upper hand!
