King of Creation

In general, to overcome strength with weakness, the strategies are either to fight desperately, catch the enemy off guard, attack unexpectedly, set an ambush beforehand, or leverage the right timing and position. These strategies were summarized from Ye Zhen’s own experiences. However, in the face of absolute power, desperate measures, surprise attacks, sudden offensives, and even prior ambushes—all become worthless.

This was exactly what Ye Zhen was facing when confronted by Zou Zhi, an elder of the Sword Origin Sect. One was a grandmaster of the Soul Sea Realm, the other merely at the peak of the Spirit Summoning Realm, a staggering difference of two major realms in cultivation.

If it were against a Martial Artist of the Spirit Transformation Realm, Ye Zhen’s Origin Sword Vein and his newly acquired Floating Cloud Finger could potentially turn the tide, but in front of Zou Zhi of the Soul Sea Realm, there was no chance whatsoever.

Originally, relying on the Cloud Winged Tiger Cub and the War Soul Blood Banner, even if Ye Zhen ran into a Martial Artist from the Spirit Transformation Realm, he might not win but could at least escape.

Knowing full well that a Blood Fox Sword wielder of the Fifth Stage Spirit Transformation Realm was likely laying in ambush outside the city, Ye Zhen still boldly left, relying on this fact.

The speed of the Cloud Winged Tiger Cub, with the blessing of the War Soul Blood Banner, could match that of a Martial Artist of the Soul Sea Realm. But Zou Zhi also knew a Flying Secret Technique, breaking Ye Zhen’s last resort.

In an instant, Ye Zhen found himself in a desperate situation.

While most methods to overcome strength with weakness are futile in the face of true power, an advantage in timing and positioning could sometimes still be exploited to the fullest.

But in the midst of these clouds in the empty sky, where could Ye Zhen find such an advantage?
