Chapter 1289: A draw?
"Boy, do you see that? This is the might of the Golden Mantis Giant King's head! Tremble!"
The Golden Mantis, handsome and cold-tongued, stood atop the clouds, his entire face enveloped in a golden, demonic light resembling a sea of sand. His icy eyes flashed with excitement, piety, cruelty, and ruthlessness.
At this moment, its heart stirred slightly, and the king of its golden mantis behemoth clan finally made his move!
Now, the white-clad youth in front of him, whom the demons despise, is finished and is surely going to die!
"Brother Yao, calm down..."
Qin Tiangong's face was grim. He had gone to such great lengths to bring Xiao Chen here, intending to humiliate him and avenge the damage to the Qin family's reputation.
In order to avoid a major conflict with the Golden Mantis King, he even gave away the pseudo-divine gold mine that he had finally found in the battlefield of gods and demons.
Who would have thought that before he could even make a move, the Golden Mantis King unleashed its power, intending to dismember Xiao Chen. If Xiao Chen died, wouldn't he have accomplished nothing and failed to complete the task Qin Zhantian had entrusted to him?
However, the Golden Mantis King was too powerful. In its rage, it had lost its reason, and this strike was too terrifying, enough to split stars and sever the moon.
Even if he wanted to rescue her, he might not be able to succeed given the proximity.
Qin Tiangong was furious, feeling that Xiao Chen was really stupid. Knowing that the difference in strength was huge, he still spoke wildly again and again, provoking the Golden Mantis King!
Now that's settled, the Golden Mantis King is enraged, and even he has to avoid its sharp edge.
Of course, even though the Golden Mantis King is strong, he is not invincible.
However, the Golden Mantis King possesses the true power of the metal element, making him unparalleled in killing. Few in the same realm can withstand his full-force strike!
His body was surrounded by blazing blue light and soaring spiritual mist, which transformed into chains of divine order that moved through the air before merging together to form a protective shield, attempting to block the golden aura that was about to spill over from afar.
In the void, golden demonic light filled the sky, surging like a vast ocean. Terrifying blade light swept down, like giant waves crashing down, its killing power was horrifying.
"Mystic Tortoise Armor Technique!"
Facing the terrifying blade of light high in the sky, as large as a mountain and seemingly about to cut through the heavens, Xiao Chen remained calm. He instantly activated the terrifying demonic runes engraved on his dantian, and blue light ignited within his body. Strange specks of light emerged and burst forth from Xiao Chen's pores, forming dazzling demonic waves. Two enormous demonic turtle divine armors condensed, one above and one below, enveloping Xiao Chen like two shields of light, stretching across the void.
The light shield shone like a galaxy, its surface patterned like deep, divine clouds, illuminating the heavens.
The scene before him shocked the Golden Mantis. Looking at the two dazzling tortoise shells covering Xiao Chen not far away, it exclaimed in astonishment, "Mysterious Tortoise Divine Armor Technique! He, a human, has actually mastered the clan-protecting divine technique of the Black Armored Dragon Tortoise Beast clan?"
The Black-Armored Dragon Turtle Beast possesses considerable demonic power and, as a demon lord-level being, enjoys a great reputation in this surrounding demon land.
Even the infamous Golden Mantis Beast clan is quite wary of the Black Armored Dragon Turtle Beast.
After all, the Black Armored Dragon Turtle Beast prides itself on being the guardian deity of the mountain people, while the Golden Mantis Demon clan is utterly wicked and commits all sorts of evil deeds. Who knows, one day, the Black Armored Dragon Turtle Beast might set its sights on them.
Of course, the two sides have not really clashed over the years.
The Golden Mantis Mountain and the Black Tortoise Mountain are far apart, and their activity ranges do not overlap.
However, the Black Armored Dragon Turtle Beast was too infamous. Over the years, it had attacked the Demon Lord many times, and the Golden Mantis Demon Clan knew a lot about its deeds.
The Golden Mantis Commander was certain that Xiao Chen was currently using the Black Armored Dragon Turtle Beast Clan's clan-protecting divine technique, the Mysterious Turtle Divine Armor Technique.
There's no other reason than that the characteristics of the Xuan Turtle Divine Armor Technique are too obvious: it condenses a divine shell that covers the sky and the earth, and condenses demonic light into a shield!
However, it simply couldn't understand why Xiao Chen, such a callow youth, could actually perform such divine arts.
Legend has it that the Xuan Turtle Divine Armor Technique requires the bloodline of a dragon turtle as a catalyst, unparalleled talent as fire, and countless years as a hammer, constantly refining and polishing it before one can have a chance to master it.
However, the white-robed youth in front of them had neither the bloodline of the dragon turtle nor seemed to have particularly high talent, yet at this age, he had mastered this unparalleled divine technique, which was simply astonishing.
"Mysterious Tortoise Divine Armor Technique? How is that possible?"
Not only was the Golden Mantis handsome, but even the Golden Mantis King, who had always been indifferent and nonchalant, was quite surprised.
The Xuan Turtle Divine Armor Technique is unfathomable and possesses astonishing divine power, earning it the title of Heavenly Turtle Divine Shield.
Legend has it that if one cultivates to the extreme, one can withstand attacks from the gods.
Even among the pure-blooded Black Armored Dragon Turtle Beast clan, only a handful of turtles have achieved this cultivation over the past thousand years.
Who would have thought that this secret technique of the Black-Armored Dragon Turtle Beast clan would appear in the hands of a young man who had just reached the age of twenty?
Of course, even when Xiao Chen unleashed the Xuan Turtle Divine Armor Technique, the Golden Mantis King was only slightly shocked, not particularly wary.
Even the most terrifying divine arts require cultivation to support them. Xiao Chen's cultivation was too low, so even with a peerless demonic technique like the Xuan Turtle Divine Armor Technique, he could hardly unleash its true power.
"What a mysterious technique! It seems to be a demon race divine power with extremely strong defensive capabilities!"
Qin Tiangong's expression also changed slightly, shocked that Xiao Chen could use such a secret technique!
As one of the top fifty supreme stars on the Azure Spirit Star Ranking, Qin Tiangong was arrogant by nature, always considering himself extraordinary and overflowing with a sense of superiority. This time, he was ordered by the elders of his clan to come and kill Xiao Chen, which he regarded as crushing an ant.
Who would have thought that the ants he had once seen as utterly insignificant would suddenly radiate a glimmer of light, which greatly shocked him.
In the blink of an eye, the thoughts of the demons and humans were in turmoil.
Before the thought could even form, the dazzling demonic blade in the void fell straight down, carrying the force of wind and thunder, and slammed fiercely into the divine armor covering Xiao Chen.
boom!
With a terrifying roar like thunder, the golden celestial blade slammed into the blue divine shell, sparks flying everywhere and unleashing an extremely terrifying energy storm.
In an instant, golden and blue light mist surged, like raging waves, soaring straight to the ninth heaven.
Endless shimmering light danced and painted the high sky.
The golden celestial blade shattered, revealing a series of terrifying, crisscrossing cracks that slowly dissipated.
The blue divine shell also disintegrated, turning into wisps of blue mist that gradually vanished.
High in the sky, golden and blue divine light surged, like the turbulent waves of a divine sea, lingering for a long time, until it dyed the vast sea of clouds with a touch of golden and blue.
Tie!
Heavenly Blade War God Armor!
The two sides were evenly matched, and neither could gain the upper hand!
"impossible!"
The Golden Mantis General was shocked once again, staring intently at the wisps of golden-blue light mist that drifted and ethereal like divine smoke high in the sky. His eyes were wide open, and his expression was terrified, as if he had seen a god or ghost in person.
The Golden Mantis King's Golden Heavenly Blade is enough to easily split a thousand-foot-tall mountain. How could it possibly fail against a young man at the second level of the King Realm?
Even though the young man possessed the Xuan Turtle Divine Armor Technique, his cultivation was still shallow. How could he possibly withstand the Golden Mantis King's overwhelming attack?
"blocked?"
The Golden Mantis King was also extremely surprised.
What is its identity?
The King of the Golden Mantis Mountain.
A thousand-year-old demon.
Having cultivated for countless years, his Daoist skills were as profound as the sea, yet today, his attack was blocked by a mere immature human youth.
