885: Chapter 881: Both Sides Lose 885: Chapter 881: Both Sides Lose Ye Tian was suspended in mid-air, awaiting the Tornado Force to strike him.
Just as these tornadoes were about to hit, Ye Tian tapped his toes lightly on the dust floating in the air!
In the blink of an eye, Ye Tian’s body dove downward, rushing straight toward Wu Weizi!
This combat tactic, Ye Tian had used it once before, but it yielded no results.
Upon seeing this, Wu Weizi’s face revealed an even greater disdain!
“Ye Tian, it seems you’ve exhausted all your tricks!
You can’t even execute another move!
Dream on if you think Tornado Force could end up hitting me instead!”
Wu Weizi sneered coldly; since he’d effortlessly neutralized this tactic when Ye Tian had used it last time, he felt confident that this time he could just as easily resolve it!
“Swish, swish, swish, swish, swish, swish~~~~~~~~”
Wu Weizi commanded countless gales to chase after Ye Tian’s back relentlessly, ignoring entirely that Ye Tian was pulling these Tornado Forces directly toward him.
“It’s useless!
The same move that my Sect Leader already broke once will fail again this time!”
“Besides, this time, he’ll die a truly miserable death!”
“Haha, haha~~~~~~ Relying on such juvenile tactics to fight the Sect Leader—it’s nothing but courting death!”
…
The inner sect disciples of Tianmen naturally understood what Ye Tian intended to do, and they couldn’t help but laugh.
No matter how one viewed the scene, Ye Tian currently appeared to have no chance of winning before Wu Weizi…
“Boss, don’t do it!”
“How can this kid be so reckless?”
“Indeed, he already failed once, yet he dares to do it again!”
…
Not only a crowd of Tianmen’s inner sect disciples, but also the Ding brothers, the four elder Ye, and a gathering of outer sect disciples couldn’t place much faith in Ye Tian.
After all, he once failed trying this.
Repeating the same trick now would likely lead to an even more disastrous defeat!
But Ye Tian, naturally, couldn’t hear the remarks of the crowd.
He continued his unwavering charge toward Wu Weizi.
“Heh heh, heh heh~~~~~~”
As Ye Tian approached closer and closer, Wu Weizi sneered, but just as Ye Tian was on the verge of slamming into him, Ye Tian’s figure suddenly transformed into wisps of dense mist!
“What is this!?”
Wu Weizi was shocked; he hadn’t expected Ye Tian, at the crucial moment, to execute such a move, leaving him utterly confused.
Ye Tian had, at this instant, merged into nature itself.
The thick fog obscured Wu Weizi’s vision completely, leaving him unable to distinguish directions.
“This little brat, where did he go… Damn it!”
Wu Weizi, unable to lock onto Ye Tian’s location, suddenly shouted in alarm.
Because the Tornado Force he himself unleashed, fueled by his confusion, was now heading straight for him.
“Swish, swish, swish, swish, swish~~~~~~~~”
The Tornado Force was ferocious.
Without Ye Tian’s figure as a focal point, Wu Weizi couldn’t even maintain his harmony with nature and detonate the Tornado Force.
Left with no alternative, Wu Weizi could only leap vertically into mid-air.
However, just as his form ascended several meters high, dense clouds above him surged and coalesced, morphing into a human.
Who else but Ye Tian could this figure be?
“Using breath and inner strength to strike a target in harmony with nature—this move, it’s something YOU taught me!”
Ye Tian roared, then delivered a heavy, crushing blow right onto Wu Weizi’s crown.
Caught off guard, Wu Weizi had no chance to evade and was forcefully hit by Ye Tian.
His body lost balance and plummeted from mid-air.
“Damn it!”
After taking Ye Tian’s devastating strike, Wu Weizi began to fall, though he still didn’t forget to prepare for a counterattack.
He intended to rise and retaliate as soon as he landed, but he overlooked a critical detail!
On the ground below, countless raging Tornado Forces had already spiraled out of his control, waiting ominously for Wu Weizi’s body to land and collide with them.
“Ahhhhhhhhh~~~~~~~”
No matter how powerful Wu Weizi was, he couldn’t escape such a ferocious onslaught by the Tornado Forces.
His body was engulfed rapidly within, struggling futilely to break free…
“Boom, boom, boom~~~~~~~~”
The moment the Tornado Forces collided with Wu Weizi, an explosion of staggering magnitude erupted.
The ground quaked; the entire valley roared and trembled violently.
This was Wu Weizi’s most potent strike, and the intensity of this explosion surpassed all previous blasts!
Not only was Wu Weizi entrenched within it, but even Ye Tian, standing slightly farther away, couldn’t escape the formidable eruption, and was swept into its chaos!
“Boss!”
“Boss!”
“Boss, be careful!”
The Ding brothers saw Ye Tian being caught in the explosion and shouted anxiously.
However, as the residual wave of the explosion surged toward them, they too had no choice but to retreat frantically!
“Run away!
If we don’t, we’ll die here as well!”
“Don’t think about anything now—just save your lives!”
“Everyone, run as far as possible!”
“Each of us must focus on preserving our own lives!”
The four elder Ye also screamed, abandoning any critique of Ye Tian’s recent tactical move or concern for his fate.
Escaping was their paramount focus now!
The Ding brothers, the Ye elders, and the outer sect disciples of Tianmen fled to the cliff wall.
From there, distanced from the explosion’s epicenter, they found relative safety.
Meanwhile, the inner sect disciples—mere observers until now—found themselves marveling at Ye Tian’s tactics.
“What an amazing guy!
Sect Leader actually fell for it?”
“This is the first time I’ve seen Sect Leader struck by his own Tornado Force.
This time, even if he doesn’t die, he’ll be left clinging to his last breath!”
“That Ye Tian fellow is remarkably cunning.
The Sect Leader was only caught because of his overconfidence.”
“Executing such a strategy requires deep psychological insight.
Ye Tian’s mind runs terrifyingly deep!”
…
These inner sect disciples hadn’t thought highly of Ye Tian earlier, but Ye Tian’s critical maneuver at the crucial moment turned the tide.
Now, none of them dared act rashly.
Their attention remained completely fixed on the center of the valley…
Due to the previous explosion, the entire valley became a wasteland; grass, trees, and stones—all reduced to ashes.
Only bare ground and thick smoke remained.
The dense smoke lingered for a considerable time before dispersing, allowing the crowd to finally see the situation at the valley’s center!
Two figures stood face-to-face, neither moving.
Those two figures were Wu Weizi and Ye Tian!
Though both were standing, their bodies bore heavy injuries…
Wu Weizi, who had been engulfed in the explosion, miraculously survived due to his robust physique and potent Inner Strength.
Yet his skin was charred and mangled, and his clothing hung in tatters.
Ye Tian wasn’t much better off.
Already heavily injured, the explosion’s shockwave worsened his wounds, rendering even slight movements nearly impossible…
“Damn it!
You bastard!
You actually…”
Wu Weizi stared at Ye Tian in disbelief; he never imagined he’d suffer such a severe setback this time!
Ye Tian’s earlier tactics, though unconventional, proved to be exceedingly effective.
More crucially, this strategy marked a psychological triumph for Ye Tian!
Wu Weizi, despite his age and experience, found himself intellectually bested by a young man barely in his twenties.
Such humiliation was unbearable for Wu Weizi!
He gritted his teeth with fury as he glared at Ye Tian…
But now, Wu Weizi, though consumed with rage, couldn’t continue fighting.
His injuries were so grave that even moving was a challenge, let alone unleashing combat techniques like before.
“Wu Weizi, I told you from the beginning—using your own methods against you.
The success of my move was entirely thanks to your teachings!”
Ye Tian laughed coldly.
In terms of adaptability, few could rival him.
When attacking Ye Tian earlier, Wu Weizi had taught him that using breath and inner strength allowed one to strike a martial artist harmonized with nature.
Ye Tian applied this principle to deal a devastating blow to Wu Weizi, leaving him severely injured.
Faced with Ye Tian, Wu Weizi was left speechless…
“You… Damn you… Ye Tian, I swear I’ll kill you…”
Wu Weizi staggered forward, but his inability to harness his inner strength rendered his actions mere posturing.
Meanwhile, Ye Tian was in equally dire straits.
His worsening injuries forced him to channel his inner breath continuously to stabilize his condition.
Otherwise, Ye Tian feared he might collapse on the spot!
“Boss, we’ll help you!”
“Kid, we’re coming!”
“Ye Tian!
We won’t let Wu Weizi harm you!”
The Ding brothers, the Ye elders, and Tianmen’s outer sect disciples saw Ye Tian’s weakened state and rushed up, gathering at the scene with him and Wu Weizi.
Given the current condition of Ye Tian and Wu Weizi, determining the victor seemed impossible.
Nevertheless, the crowd felt compelled to protect Ye Tian—after all, Ye Tian symbolized the future hope of the Martial Arts World!
“Are you kidding me!?”
“Sect Leader!
We’re coming too!”
“You unworthy outer disciples won’t have your way!”
More than twenty inner sect disciples descended from the cliffs, standing firmly in front of Wu Weizi.
Although they didn’t hold Wu Weizi in high regard, they couldn’t allow their Sect Leader to be directly killed by outsiders!
