Chapter 175: Xing Yi Horse Form! Battle!

The terrifying momentum that burst out from Link’s casual strike shocked everyone and made them go wild!

The group of Temple of Light Stage Four powerhouses was presently stunned, and they were rather puzzled.

The major factions’ few Stage Five Star-rank powerhouses were also in disbelief regarding everything that happened before their eyes.

A Stage Four [Doomsday Online] player was actually able to contend with a top Star-rank powerhouse at the present stage! This could be said to have startled them so much that all of their eyeballs popped out.

And this matter—which was unheard of—had truly happened before their eyes. Hence, how could everyone not be shocked?

Han Yingjie, He Lunhai, and Wu Ping eyed each other as their countenances constantly changed.

After faltering for a moment, they suddenly realized something!

Could it be that we had already targeted the wrong person earlier?

Could it be that the initiator of all of this isn’t the Temple of Light’s Holy Son, but that young man?

A sharp glint flashed through He Lunhai’s eyes as he asked Han Yingjie, “Does your Evil Sect have information regarding this person?”

Han Yingjie shook his head. Though it was true that Evil Sect’s intelligence organization was powerful, he really didn’t have information on this person.

According to reason, such a strange powerhouse shouldn’t have appeared in this area.

After some thought, Han Yingjie voiced out a conjecture. “Could he be from Unfallen City? The city isn’t far from here, but they aren’t under any of the major factions’ command.”

“Interesting. This makes them newly risen powerhouses.” He Lunhai nodded, and the corners of his lips curled up into an icy smile.

Since they aren’t under any of the major factions’ command, this means that he has no background. A powerhouse with no background, yet he still has such capabilities. There are definitely many secrets or powerful equipment on him. An innocent man gets into trouble because of his wealth. He Lunhai became even more interested in that Link.

Han Yingjie also thought of this point; his eyes shifted, and he no longer said anything else.

Just as their conversation ended, in the center of the battle—where smoke and dust billowed—a man howled. Afterwinds swept in all directions, surging in the void as they forcefully dispelled the smoke and dust.

A figure appeared in everyone’s eyes. It was Ancient Martial Alliance’s Wang Hao, who had delivered the overwhelming fist shadows earlier. He was presently rather battered. The ravaging sword energy had ripped out many cuts out of Wang Hao’s clothes, but he had become even more berserk!

Wang Hao’s beard and hair stood on end as his vigor erupted like an insane lion’s. He increasingly appeared to have an alarming presence!

Berserk vigor seemed to be burning, raising hot waves that pushed toward all four directions. Everyone could feel the anger in Wang Hao’s chest, which seemingly sought to burn everything down!

Wang Hao could’ve killed Ou Chen earlier, but he was obstructed by a streak of sword glow!

Most importantly, the person that acted was a Stage Four [Doomsday Online] player!

Being obstructed by the strike of a person whose level was far beneath his own was virtually a stinging insult to the arrogant Wang Hao!

A mere Stage Four ought to be in awe of him. Why did Link dare strike at him?

Wang Hao could no longer care about Ou Chen now. He looked toward Link instead—the rage in his eyes was like flowing lava. “Rascal, you are seeking doom!”

Link totally couldn’t be bothered to respond to him. He just coolly scanned the four Stage Five powerhouses—who had come forward—and spoke with a smile. “Are all the Stage Fives here? Let’s not miss anyone out.”

Sensing the disdain and indifference in Link’s gaze, Wang Hao and the others all felt a sense of discomfort and rage emerge.

Not miss anyone out? Is he complaining that the four of us—all Stage Five powerhouses—still aren’t enough? This fellow’s appetite is bigger than the sky!

“Conceited!” He Lunhai’s gaze became increasingly somber as he spoke coldly.

Ou Chen made use of the interval when Link blocked the strike for him to distance himself from Wang Hao. He then moved to hide behind Link.

As he watched Link’s figure in front of him, Ou Chen no longer felt flustered even though he was facing four Stage Five powerhouses. Instead, he felt an immense sense of security, and he couldn’t help letting out a long breath.

I am safe! It’s still Brother Link who is reliable at the critical moment! Wouldn’t it be a great loss if such a powerhouse wasn’t kidnapped and brought into the Temple of Light?! Ou Chen thought inwardly; the joy of escaping an ordeal was written all over his face.

The Temple of Light crowd at the side—who was initially extremely reverent of their Holy Son—was at a loss for words now.

It seemed like everything that happened before had indeed been Link’s doing—this person was the true ruthless person!

Disregarding what everyone was thinking in their hearts, Link suddenly stood up. His white robes fluttered like snow. With the [King’s Sword] in hand, his presence was extraordinary! He was like an ancient sword immortal who crossed the long river of time to come and was overlooking all his enemies!

The powerhouses of the major factions in this area were all present. It would be just nice for him to take them down one by one.

The information that those major factions had wasn’t little. They also owned a lot of good stuff, so these people would probably give Link considerable gains.

Upon seeing Link stand up, Wang Hao no longer restrained the killing intent in his chest. With a roar, his figure leaped forward once again. With both fists swinging, the air instantly broke apart, releasing explosive sounds!

Wang Hao had been practicing Xing Yi Quan[1] even before the apocalypse. After the apocalypse arrived, he had awakened a Diamond-grade hidden profession, [Master of Xing Yi].

There was a saying that went: ‘Tai Chi takes ten years of practice, while Xing Yi allows one to kill within a year!’

XIng Yi Quan was an extremely tyrannical combat art to begin with!

After the apocalypse arrived, everyone was able to raise their levels and elevate their respective attributes. This had truly demonstrated this ancient martial art’s might all the more!

After Wang Hao entered Stage Five, his combat abilities became extremely frightening. He could rank at the top amongst those of the same level!

Presently, he struck with rage; Xing Yi Quan’s horse form was launched. His leg muscles were taut like steel as if they contained immense strength—even the ground cracked at every inch beneath his steps!

Both of Wang Hao’s fists even went straight for Link’s skull. The heavy punches were like galloping horses’ hooves as the fist winds broke the void—the might was fearsome!

Ou Chen’s heart instantly dropped for a moment. Ou Chen sensed the immense pressure surging toward him, and he quickly reminded, “Link, don’t let him come close! The majority of the powerhouses from Ancient Martial Alliance practice ancient martial arts; their fists and legs possess might comparable to skills!”

“Too late! Die!” Wang Hao let out a cold laugh. He was no longer far from Link, and his fists swung down brutally!

The air rang. In the emptiness, searing fist winds gathered and even condensed into a ferocious battle steed. The battle steed raised its hooves and stepped down harshly!

Some distance away, Han Yingjie, He Lunhai, and the other Stage Five powerhouses’ pupils contracted!

Wang Hao had evidently brought out his real skill. The might of this strike was frightening; even they—Stage Five powerhouses—might not necessarily be certain that they could receive it!

“That fellow’s doomed!” Han Yingjie said decisively, his tone extremely steadfast.

Link took a glance at the horse phantom, yet his expression remained indifferent.

The next moment, a black shadow abruptly leaped forward. Long, jet-black limbs reached out and collided with the large hooves.

A roar sounded, and the void exploded. It seemed as if the space was about to be torn apart by this fearsome collision!

That utterly ferocious horse phantom actually crumbled before the dark shadow!

Everyone was wide-eyed, and the present Wang Hao wore a look full of incredulity and surprise!

His fists then crashed into the black shadow’s long limbs!

Wang Hao—who was a Stage Five powerhouse—actually sensed a great force that he absolutely couldn’t withstand and was instantly sent flying!
