Chapter 394: Mortal Combat
Lin Feng and Zhou Tianyu were locked in a life-or-death battle. Both moved with graceful speed, so fast they were almost impossible to follow with the naked eye.
Their movements were incredibly agile, and every strike was a lethal, perilous blow.
BANG!
Zhou Tianyu landed a kick on Lin Feng's left ribs, sending him flying three meters away.
He shot forward in pursuit, stopping less than five meters from Lin Feng.
"Lin Feng, die!"
Zhou Tianyu let out a savage laugh, his eyes glinting with excitement. He raised his right fist high and smashed it down toward Lin Feng.
BANG!
The force of the punch whistled through the air, infused with terrifying Inner Strength that made Zhou Tianyu's entire right arm seem to swell in size.
With a stern expression, Lin Feng lashed out with a whip kick, which collided squarely with Zhou Tianyu's right fist.
At that moment, it was as if the very air had frozen. The surrounding temperature plummeted, and a cold wind seemed to sweep through the area.
The surrounding leaves rustled, and the floorboards trembled faintly.
Lin Feng's and Zhou Tianyu's gazes met in mid-air, their eyes flickering with a terrifying, cold light.
THUMP, THUMP, THUMP!
Zhou Tianyu stumbled back several steps. He ripped open his collar and roared, "Lin Feng, I admit I underestimated you. But now, you're going to pay the price!"
"The price?"
Hearing this, Lin Feng's eyes narrowed. He snorted coldly. "You think you can make me? I've never been afraid of anyone!"
"Then I'll show you what true Ancient Martial Arts look like!"
With an explosive roar, Zhou Tianyu stomped his feet hard on the ground and launched himself into the air. He pressed his palms together and brought them crashing down on Lin Feng like Mount Tai itself.
This move was called the "Mountain Shattering Seal," and it was one of his ultimate Ancient Martial Arts techniques. Its power was astonishing; he had once used this very move to instantly kill a Late Stage of Innate Martial Artist.
Its power was astounding!
Zhou Tianyu's attacks grew more frenzied, and the air crackled with explosive sounds.
Lin Feng curled his lip in disdain. With a flicker of his body, he dodged Zhou Tianyu's attack.
Immediately after, Lin Feng's figure vanished again, reappearing in front of Zhou Tianyu in the blink of an eye. He viciously smashed his iron fists toward him.
"You're courting death!"
Zhou Tianyu sneered and raised his left hand to block, but just then, Lin Feng's attack suddenly changed direction, heading straight for his chest!
"What?"
Startled, Zhou Tianyu quickly dodged to the side while simultaneously kicking up at Lin Feng's chin.
But Lin Feng had already anticipated this move. His attack shifted abruptly as he changed his posture, twisting his body and reaching for Zhou Tianyu's neck with his right hand formed into a claw.
"Don't even think about it!"
Zhou Tianyu roared, lifting his right leg and sweeping it toward Lin Feng's head.
Lin Feng's expression darkened. He leaned back, dodging the kick, and at the same time, his right hand shot out and clamped down on Zhou Tianyu's right wrist, yanking it backward!
Zhou Tianyu lost his balance and stumbled forward. Seizing the opportunity, Lin Feng slammed an elbow into his lower abdomen!
The immense force of the blow made Zhou Tianyu grunt in pain. His body doubled over like a shrimp as he sprayed a mouthful of blood!
BANG!
Lin Feng blurred into an afterimage and charged at Zhou Tianyu. He threw another vicious punch, smashing it into Zhou Tianyu's solar plexus. The blow sent his entire body flying sideways for several meters before he crashed to the ground.
"Cough, cough."
Zhou Tianyu struggled on the ground for a moment before forcing himself to stand up through the pain.
Luckily, the pill he had taken earlier had a pain-reducing effect. Otherwise, that last blow alone would have been too painful for him to even get back on his feet!
SWISH!
Zhou Tianyu's eyes were bloodshot. He stared daggers at Lin Feng, his gaze filled with venomous hatred.
He'd been in plenty of fights growing up, but this was the first time he had ever been so thoroughly humiliated. The shame was unbearable!
To him, this was the ultimate insult!
Killing intent surged from Zhou Tianyu. He looked at Lin Feng and said grimly, "You're good. You've actually pushed me this far. But today, your doom is sealed!"
After speaking, he slowly closed his eyes.
HFF!
The next moment, Zhou Tianyu's eyes snapped open, a sharp glint flashing within his pupils. He immediately slapped both palms on the ground!
BANG!
The hard floor tiles instantly shattered, turning into a spray of fine stone fragments that shot toward Lin Feng.
Lin Feng frowned. Pushing off his toes, he rapidly retreated, trying to avoid the stone fragments.
But the fragments were incredibly fast, surrounding Lin Feng in a near instant.
Lin Feng's eyebrow twitched. Seeing the dense cloud of stone fragments, the corner of his mouth curved into a mocking smile.
Then, he stomped his foot, and his body shot forward like an arrow released from a bow.
Tracing a graceful arc through the air, he swung both hands, each strike landing squarely on the surface of a stone fragment.
A powerful reverberating force traveled up his arms, making them tremble slightly. He gritted his teeth, focused all his strength into his arms, and smashed them viciously against the fragments!
BOOM!
One by one, the stone fragments exploded from his blows, turning into a cloud of dust that filled the air.
"Haha."
Lin Feng let out a loud laugh. The stone fragments had seemed fierce, but they couldn't harm him in the slightest. In fact, the reverberating force from his own strikes had completely obliterated them!
Watching Lin Feng's movements, Zhou Tianyu's expression became incredibly grave.
'With my current power, each of those hundred-odd fragments I launched should have had the impact force of a sniper bullet! But Lin Feng used softness to overcome hardness, casually neutralizing all of them! I knew his Martial Arts cultivation was deeper than mine, but I never imagined it would be this terrifying!'
Before Zhou Tianyu could react, Lin Feng had already closed the distance again, aiming a simple, unadorned side kick at his cheek!
If that kick landed squarely, it would undoubtedly knock Zhou Tianyu unconscious.
SWOOSH!
Zhou Tianyu immediately threw up a hand to block, using the force of the kick to launch himself backward in a rapid retreat.
Lin Feng didn't give chase, knowing that if he pressed the attack, Zhou Tianyu would surely unleash a killing blow to finish him on the spot.
Sure enough, the moment Lin Feng held back, Zhou Tianyu seized the opening to snatch up the dagger he had stuck in the ground earlier.
The moment the dagger was in his hand, he lunged at Lin Feng. He knew that Lin Feng's Body Technique was bizarre and that he possessed vast combat experience; trapping him, even for a moment, was impossible.
'Since I can't trap him, I'll restrict his movement first!'
The dagger glinted coldly in the moonlight, slicing through the air with a piercing whistle as it flew straight for Lin Feng's throat!
