896: Chapter 892: Sima Yun’s Ultimate Move!
Unlike Sima Yun, Ye Tian spent an immense amount of time harmonizing the various forces within his body.
His understanding of the interplay between different powers far surpassed Sima Yun’s!
This is also why Ye Tian, despite not mastering Wind and Cloud Combined, could still comprehend its essence…
For a martial artist who had merely heard of Wind and Cloud Combined to understand it far better than he did—this was something Sima Yun absolutely could not accept!
Thus, Sima Yun’s fury was completely understandable!
“Ye Tian, in my world, people as detestable as you have no place!”
Sima Yun howled furiously, pushing the strength within his body to its peak!
Soon, two spinning cyclones formed in Sima Yun’s hands!
“It’s the Whirlwind Whip!
Sima Yun’s ultimate technique!”
“That guy’s gone mad with the desire to kill Ye Tian!”
“We need to stay far away.
The power of the Whirlwind Whip is enormous!”
…
The Heaven Gate inner sect disciples began discussing among themselves.
Because they were fellow sect members, these inner sect disciples were well aware of Sima Yun’s most potent move: the Whirlwind Whip.
In fact, when Sima Yun had earlier trapped the Ye Family’s Four Elders, he had used a similar technique.
However, that was not the Whirlwind Whip—it was merely revolving winds capable of confinement…
But the Whirlwind Whip was different.
Sima Yun infused all of his strength into it, making its destructive power truly terrifying!
Having suffered greatly in close-quarters combat with Ye Tian earlier, Sima Yun was determined to avoid another melee.
Resorting to the Whirlwind Whip was his only option.
After all, the Whirlwind Whip had immense power—even before absorbing the Sect Leader Wu Weizi’s cultivation, it was enough to intimidate the other martial artists of Heaven Gate.
Now, with Sima Yun wielding it after gaining that cultivation, its menace was bone-chilling…
The Heaven Gate inner sect disciples all instinctively retreated, while the outer sect disciples, though they had never witnessed the Whirlwind Whip firsthand, had heard enough about its infamy to follow suit.
Everyone stepped back toward the cliff wall, retreating a full forty or fifty meters away from the spot where Ye Tian and Sima Yun were locked in combat…
“By compressing the power of wind to an extreme degree, you’ve created two colossal whips resembling cyclones.
Sima Yun, the strength of this move is indeed extraordinary!”
Ye Tian said coldly.
Though this was Ye Tian’s first time seeing Sima Yun unleash the Whirlwind Whip, he could still discern the intricacies of its formation, leaving Sima Yun slightly stunned.
“You…
You truly shouldn’t be allowed to exist in this world…
You’re far too dangerous!”
Sima Yun spoke with murderous intent.
If simply by observing a single glimpse, Ye Tian could deduce how to execute an opponent’s move, then how could anyone in the Martial Arts World possibly stand against him?
It appeared that if Ye Tian’s cultivation techniques had been suited for using moves like the Whirlwind Whip, he might already have two similar cyclone whips in his hands…
“Ye Tian, I must kill you.
Not merely because you destroyed the Sima Family’s ancestral home, not merely because you tarnished the Sima Family’s reputation, not merely because my son died because of you!
Your very existence is an insult to me.
Therefore, you must die—you must die by my hand!
I need to prove that I am stronger than you!”
Sima Yun said fiercely, then swung the Whirlwind Whip, slamming it violently toward Ye Tian!
Initially, the two whips in Sima Yun’s hands didn’t appear very long.
But as he attacked, their length suddenly extended to dozens of meters!
Even though Ye Tian was standing a fair distance from Sima Yun, Sima Yun could easily reach him!
“Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh, swoosh~~~~~~~~”
The Whirlwind Whip roared fiercely through the air.
Ye Tian could feel an infinite force emanating from the gusts.
If he were struck by the Whirlwind Whip or swept into its turbulence, he might not die, but he would certainly be left clinging to life…
Thus, faced with the assault from the Whirlwind Whip, Ye Tian dared not be careless for even a moment—he immediately sidestepped to evade.
But Sima Yun wielded two Whirlwind Whips; while Ye Tian dodged one, the other followed closely behind!
“Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh, swoosh~~~~~~~~”
This second whip seemed even more powerful than the first.
Having just evaded the first Whirlwind Whip, Ye Tian found himself momentarily off-balance, unable to leap away in time.
“Die, Ye Tian!”
Seeing this, Sima Yun wouldn’t let the opportunity slip.
With increased speed, the Whirlwind Whip surged toward Ye Tian.
“Hmph!”
Ye Tian scoffed coldly and suddenly struck the ground heavily with his palm.
The force of his strike left a five-finger imprint on the earth.
“Bang!”
The recoil from Ye Tian’s palm propelled him swiftly into the air, narrowly avoiding the edge of the Whirlwind Whip.
“You bastard!”
Sima Yun cursed.
With a flick of his wrist, the Whirlwind Whip changed direction and lunged toward Ye Tian in midair.
Unlike conventional whip techniques, the Whirlwind Whip was formed from sheer inner strength.
This meant that even if a move had been completed, there was no need to retract and reinitiate the attack; simply re-focusing the energy allowed for seamless continuation.
This fluidity of motion in wielding the Whirlwind Whip stunned even Ye Tian with its speed!
“Huh?”
In his moment of surprise, the Whirlwind Whip charged straight toward Ye Tian’s face!
Suspended in midair and unable to maneuver freely, Ye Tian had no choice but to confront the ferocious assault head-on.
“Slash!”
Ye Tian launched a palm strike toward the incoming Whirlwind Whip.
Hidden within this strike was immense power from Ye Tian’s inner strength, rivalling the whip’s energy.
“You want to resist?
Don’t make me laugh!”
Sima Yun detected Ye Tian’s intentions instantly.
Smirking coldly, he poured even more force into the Whirlwind Whip, amplifying its power further.
“Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh, swoosh~~~~~~~~~~”
The Whirlwind Whip surged directly at Ye Tian.
Though Ye Tian believed his inner strength to be robust enough to counter it, his strike revealed an unsettling reality—the whip suddenly expanded, transforming into something akin to a typhoon.
Its eye threatened to suck him in!
Even Ye Tian’s own strength felt as if it was being swallowed entirely…
“Damn it!”
In an urgent moment, Ye Tian quickly withdrew his strike.
Continuing to clash head-on with the Whirlwind Whip risked his entire body being consumed.
Immediately after retracting his attack, Ye Tian employed the Thousand Catties Drop technique.
By drastically increasing his weight, he managed to avoid being pulled into the whip’s vortex.
Yet, despite this, the residual power within the Whirlwind Whip still carved numerous wounds onto the surface of his body.
Ye Tian landed heavily on the ground, glancing at his injuries—they were indeed horrific.
Another attack of this caliber might very well reduce him to pieces…
“Hehehehehe~~~~~~~”
Sima Yun, pleased to see that he had wounded Ye Tian, chuckled coldly.
The two Whirlwind Whips retreated back into his hands.
“Ye Tian, now you’ve witnessed the power of the Whirlwind Whip.
Against it, there is no escape—your only future lies in being torn apart within its vortex!”
Sima Yun boasted, brimming with confidence, while Ye Tian wore a bitter smile.
“Perhaps.
But Sima Yun, killing me won’t be that simple!
Before you, countless masters have tried to say the same thing.
Yet now, they are all dead—by my hand!”
Even in this perilous moment, Ye Tian’s sharp tongue remained unrelenting; at the very least, he refused to lose verbally.
“You…”
Sima Yun, enraged by Ye Tian’s taunts, twitched his wrists.
This time, the Whirlwind Whips didn’t attack sequentially—Two Dragons Play with Pearls, both surging simultaneously toward Ye Tian.
“Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh, swoosh~~~~~~~~”
Accompanied by piercing wind, the Whirlwind Whips closed in on Ye Tian from both sides.
Facing such an aggressive attack, Ye Tian dared not let his guard down.
He leapt backward in a desperate attempt to evade the whips.
“You won’t escape!”
Sima Yun bellowed.
The Whirlwind Whips executed a sweeping motion, resembling two giant dragons baring their fangs, which sent chills down everyone’s spine.
This time, the whips’ attack was clearly stronger than before.
Ye Tian wouldn’t dare be careless—only by fully utilizing his most powerful light skill steps did he barely escape.
Though the whips missed their mark, their residual force didn’t dissipate, instead slamming into the cliff wall where the other martial artists stood by as spectators!
“Everyone!
Move quickly!”
Ye Zhihuan shouted urgently.
The wall, initially assumed to be far enough from Ye Tian and Sima Yun’s battle, had seemed a safe vantage point for watching their fight.
Yet no one anticipated that Sima Yun’s attack range would be so vast, even the wall a hundred meters away was not spared.
Upon Ye Zhihuan’s warning, the martial artists exerted every ounce of their strength to evade the Whirlwind Whip’s devastation!
Those with exceptional qinggong helped those with weaker skills; those capable of aerial maneuvers carried the grounded martial artists into the air…
Though somewhat chaotic, they all managed to narrowly dodge the Whirlwind Whips!
“Crash~~~~~~~~”
The two Whirlwind Whips smashed violently into the cliff wall, splitting one section into two halves.
One half disintegrated entirely into rubble, collapsing completely!
In that instant, debris flew and dust billowed everywhere…
Sima Yun’s attack no longer resembled simple martial techniques—it seemed more akin to an explosive cannonblast, unleashing unimaginable destruction!
