Legend of the Heavenly Fruit
Eps. 263 — Family Ling III
"Elemental Fire — Punch Fire Boxing!"
BOOM!
Zhou Yuan unleashed a punch attack on one of the guards, making a fierce burst of fire and injuring the guard.
The guard was thrown into one of the buildings, unable to maintain consciousness before collapsing.
The longer Zhou Yuan fought those guards the more they came, Zhou Yuan faced them with his bare-handed science combined with a type-changing technique.
"He's too strong, we're not all his match!"
"Call the Elders, only they can face the young man!"
The guards agreed they would not be able to defeat Zhou Yuan with just numbers, despite being attacked all out for a few minutes in fact Zhou Yuan remained calm and was able to face all his opponents.
What bothered them was the chill that the young man released, the closer the guards were to his opponent the more their body temperature dropped.
Zhou Yuan continued to face his opponents when suddenly an Elder from the Ling Family jumped up and unleashed a high-powered tread attack.
"How dare you mess with the Ling Family!?" The elder attacked while snorting in annoyance.
Zhou Yuan did not dodge the attack but instead retaliated with a tread attack as well. Zhou Yuan used a change of ice type.
"Elemental Ice — Flakes of Ice Treads!"
The two sites clashed and created a shock wave that shook the surrounding air, the Elder was thrown several meters after fighting the attack while Zhou Yuan remained standing at his original place.
The elder coughed and fresh blood appeared at the corner of his lips, he did not expect that in the second attack Zhou Yuan would drain a lot of energy in.
The elder's eyes then widened when he realized the hand he was wearing to attack Zhou Yuan was already frozen. He tried to melt it with deep force but the ice was hard to melt.
"Changes of ice of this height... Who the hell are you!?" The elder shouted loudly.
Zhou Yuan smiled faintly. "I'm sure one of you who doesn't have a hand told me everything. I'm here because I want to finish a previously delayed business..."
The elder thought for a moment before finally cursing, he realized the person Zhou Yuan meant was Ling Fuyan, he said, The elder now understood why Ling Fuyan could lose so easily because Zhou Yuan's strength was too different from his.
As the Elder was still thinking Zhou Yuan otherwise was not wasting his time, he released fireballs towards the Elder while narrowing the distance between the two.
The elder's expression turned bad, he dodged the fireballs but at the same time Zhou Yuan was already nearby.
Zhou Yuan unleashed the attack of the site and the Elder followed, both of them exchanging attacks to cause a violent shockwave.
The elder was not skilled in empty-handed attacks so in a dozen moves he was cornered, on the last tread attack Zhou Yuan managed to hit his body, making him flung dozens of meters before vomiting blood.
The elder swore repeatedly, he felt a significant difference in strength between him and his opponent.
Zhou Yuan did not attack the Elder anymore but rather looked at the surroundings as the other seven Elders of the Ling Family had already come. Zhou Yuan could see the level of their strength that was at the peak of the Crystal Realm.
"What are you doing, underestimating him?" The oldest elder among them asked the wounded elder.
"Don't underestimate him, his strength is very high..." The injured elder tried to recover his condition with deep strength. Zhou Yuan's attack inflicted deep wounds that were not light to him.
The oldest elder instructed the other Elders to use their full strength, suggesting that Zhou Yuan may have extraordinary abilities.
The elders of the Ling Family began to take out their secret weapons in the form of special daggers.
"We're using a killer formation, I'm sure he's an old swordsman in disguise." The oldest elder gave instructions.
The other Elders nodded, The previously injured Elder has already recovered some of his injuries and started to join the formation.
The eight Elders began to surround Zhou Yuan in formation, not allowing his opponent to escape or provide resistance.
Zhou Yuan frowned looking at their movements before finally understanding that they were using some sort of formation technique.
In a short time, Zhou Yuan fought against the eight Elders, he dodged every attack that came and fended off the rest.
Zhou Yuan clucked in awe, the formation technique that the eight Elders used was the most complicated formation technique he faced in his life.
Zhou Yuan was less experienced in facing opponents who used formations like this, he had to admit when he felt it, it was enough to amaze him.
Not only did the Elders fill each other's void, they also coordinated with each other, not allowing a single second to pause so that Zhou Yuan could strike back.
Although their formation was dual, their attacks were not enough to injure Zhou Yuan let alone defeat him.
Zhou Yuan was able to dodge the incoming attacks calmly. He continued to observe while trying to find a gap in the formation.
"How can he avoid all our attacks..." The oldest elder clucked in annoyance.
The oldest elder was at a loss for words seeing Zhou Yuan able to dodge every attack as if the young man had predicted him from the start.
They had already attacked using full force but Zhou Yuan could still dodge or fend it off, this made the Elders feel frustrated.
In a different location when Zhou Yuan was fighting with the Elders, Ling Fuyan and Tianhai were observing him from afar.
"How's..." Ling Fuyan's mouth was wide open.
Ling Fuyan had trouble saying words seeing Zhou Yuan actually come here, she certainly still remembered the face of the young man who took his two hands, he said, of course the most shocking thing was that Zhou Yuan was able to keep up with his eight Elders who were using a killing formation.
"So he's the one who attacked you, Fuyan?" Tianhai glanced at his Elder.
Ling Fuyan gulped, her gaze still filled with shock. "I knew he was strong but didn't expect it to be this strong..." Fuyan.
Tianhai sighed then glanced at Zhou Yuan who was still fighting. "I can feel that that young man will be a troublesome opponent for me though."
The killing formation that the Elders of the Ling Family were currently using was a technique made by Tianhai, he understood how formidable the formation was and understood how difficult it was to survive the formation but Zhou Yuan could easily survive it with such a long time showing such a high level of ability.
As time went on, the energy within the Elders began to drain using his formation for a long time. Their movements were not as fast as before so it made Zhou Yuan have a chance to strike back.
Zhou Yuan exerted a deep force on his feet and then stomped to the ground violently. "Elemental Ice — Crystal Ice World!"
Zhou Yuan created ice shards in a single stomp of his foot which then spread rapidly to the surrounding ground.
Within a few breaths of time, the land of the Ling Family residence turned into a shiny ice land. Everything was too fast until the Elders were startled and unprepared the ground he was treading into slippery ice, eventually some of them lost their balance thus making Zhou Yuan able to counterattack on them.
