’Did he take some kind of pill to raise his Level?’
Tang Yi had seen Hex Anmin swallow something before he suddenly erupted with power. He figured Hex Anmin must have taken some miraculous Pill that raised his strength to the Battle Emperor Level.
’A Battle Emperor...’
A Level like that still put a bit of pressure on Tang Yi.
’This is going to be trouble.’
Tang Yi frowned.
"Hmph!"
Seeing that all of his men had died at Tang Yi’s hands, Hex Anmin snorted coldly, his expression extremely grim.
"Tang Yi, since you already know our identity and our purpose here, I’m not afraid to tell you! We are indeed from the Heaven-Devouring Sect, and the Heaven-Devouring Sect is an existence you cannot afford to provoke. Provoke us, and death is your only way out!"
"I admit your strength is formidable, and you are a great hindrance to our mission. However, I advise you to hand over the Saint Spirit Blood to me at once. If you do, I can still grant you a complete corpse and let you die with some dignity. Otherwise..."
As he spoke, Hex Anmin clenched his hand into a fist, then slowly opened it. With this simple motion, a ferocious Power materialized, transforming into a roiling flame of pure energy!
An overwhelmingly powerful aura erupted from Hex Anmin’s entire body. He seemed like a War God descended from the heavens, incomparably mighty and terrifying.
His momentum was several times stronger than before. At this moment, the might of a Battle Emperor radiated from Hex Anmin, displayed in its full glory!
A threat! What Hex Anmin was doing was a naked threat against Tang Yi!
But the threat didn’t achieve its intended effect. Tang Yi seemed completely unaffected, his expression not changing in the slightest.
Instead, as Hex Anmin displayed his strength, he himself became deeply captivated by the feeling of his body overflowing with power, like a Celestial God.
’This feels too good, too intoxicating.’
’If only this wasn’t temporary power, but permanent... How wonderful that would be...’
A deep fascination with this feeling grew within Hex Anmin.
"Heh, trying to throw your weight around with borrowed power? You think you can threaten me with something like this? You underestimate me! I advise you to come over here and accept your death. It’ll save me the trouble of making you suffer complete soul annihilation, with no hope of reincarnation."
Sensing the aura radiating from Hex Anmin, Tang Yi smiled coldly and returned the threat.
Back when he faced Du Penghui, a Battle Emperor, Tang Yi had only just entered the Battle King Level. But now, his strength had risen to that of a Six-star Battle King, making him countless times more powerful than before. Facing a Battle Emperor was no longer a fight without a chance of victory.
Besides, the man before him wasn’t a True Battle Emperor. He had merely used some kind of treasure to forcibly raise his Level to the Battle Emperor Level. This kind of strength was only that of a Pseudo-Battle Emperor, not a real one. Naturally, Tang Yi had no reason to fear him.
"Complete soul annihilation, with no hope of reincarnation?"
Hex Anmin was stunned. He never expected that even after he had elevated himself to the Battle Emperor Level, Tang Yi would still dare to make such an arrogant boast!
’Isn’t he a little too confident?’
’He’s looking down on me way too much, isn’t he?’
"Fine, then I’ll see just what skills you have to make me suffer ’no hope of reincarnation’!"
"Die!"
Feeling looked down upon by Tang Yi, Hex Anmin roared in anger. His figure blurred as he shot toward Tang Yi!
Hex Anmin was not known for his Speed; it was average at best. But now that his Level had been forcibly raised to the Battle Emperor Level by the Mad Demon Pill, his Speed was simply incredible.
This Speed was already comparable to Tang Yi’s when he used the Formless Divine Shadow Step!
In fact, he was even a little bit faster than Tang Yi! WHOOSH!
One moment, Hex Anmin was still standing in his original spot, staring coldly at Tang Yi. The next moment, in a flash, he was right in front of him. The entire process took less than a single breath. It was like Instant Teleportation—incredibly fast.
"Nice timing!"
Faced with Hex Anmin’s lightning-fast attack, Tang Yi was slightly surprised but showed no fear. With a loud shout, he stretched out a hand and launched the first strike.
"Six Yang Rejuvenation Finger!"
He pointed again, and six rays of light shot out.
"Hmph, you still think you can use that move on me? Back when I didn’t have the power of a Battle Emperor, maybe that attack could have threatened me. But now I am an incomparably powerful Battle Emperor. Trying to use this on me again? Isn’t that a little ridiculous?"
Facing Tang Yi’s Six Yang Rejuvenation Finger once more, Hex Anmin sneered. With just a slight flicker of his body, he dodged it. With his current Speed, it was a near-impossible task for Tang Yi’s Six Yang Rejuvenation Finger to hit him.
After dodging Tang Yi’s finger attack, Hex Anmin was now right in front of him.
"You had fun hitting me just now, didn’t you? Now, you can eat a punch from me!"
"White Lion Fist!"
Hex Anmin threw a punch at Tang Yi. The powerful wind from the blow howled. Before the fist even arrived, the sharp force of it made Tang Yi’s face sting as if it were being scraped by knives.
This showed just how terrifying the punch was, and just how immense its Power.
Although Hex Anmin was only a Pseudo-Battle Emperor, he was not someone an ordinary Battle King could match.
Of course, Tang Yi was no ordinary Battle King.
"Nightmare Strike!"
At that moment, Tang Yi also struck out with a palm, meeting Hex Anmin’s fist.
The Nightmare Effect of the Nightmare Strike activated, causing Hex Anmin’s momentum to falter. He became slightly dazed, and the intensity of his attack weakened just a little.
However, because the difference in their Levels was too great, the Nightmare Effect was very weak. The daze lasted for an incredibly short time, and the reduction in his attack’s intensity was minimal. Other than a slight change in his momentum, Hex Anmin showed no outward signs of being affected.
BOOM! The next moment, a fist and a palm—one from a Pseudo-Battle Emperor, the other from a powerful Six-star Battle King—collided, unleashing a violent explosion of sound.
Rings of shockwaves radiated out from the center of the impact, kicking up clouds of dust.
At that instant, both men shuddered as they were simultaneously thrown back by a Rebound force.
Tang Yi retreated nine steps, and Hex Anmin also retreated nine steps.
This head-on collision actually ended in a draw!
"Impossible! What kind of Martial Technique is that! How can it be so powerful!"
Although they had been evenly matched in that collision, Hex Anmin’s eyes went wide with disbelief!
The White Lion Fist he had just used was an Earth Tier Lower Grade Martial Technique. Moreover, it was a product of the Heaven-Devouring Sect, so its quality was exceptionally high, comparable to an Earth Tier Middle Grade Martial Technique from the outside world.
Furthermore, such a Martial Technique was being executed by him, a temporary Battle Emperor. Its power went without saying.
And yet, a punch like that had only fought Tang Yi to a standstill? How was this possible!
