Peerless Martial God - C14 Life and Death Arena(2)
C14 Life and Death Arena(2)
Han Man understood what Lin Feng meant. This was also exactly what he wanted. If he always had Lin Feng to protect him, then he wouldn’t need to train so hard. The key to Martial Tao still depended on himself.
As expected, not long after he started walking by himself, someone approached Han Man with a trace of fighting intent in his eyes which were not covered by the mask in his face.
Without further ado, the man charged straight at Han Man and brandished his iron fist.
“This time, Han Man is in trouble. This man is a Martial Cultivator at the Ninth Level of Qi Martial Stage.” Lin Feng smiled slightly. Han Man was also able to determine his cultivation level from the aura that the man had released. However, he did not shrink back. Instead, he gathered all his strength into his fist. With a loud sound, he fired on all cylinders.
Han Man was forced back more than a dozen steps by one punch, but his opponent remained motionless. It was easy to tell who won and who lost.
“You are just at the Eighth Level of Qi Martial Stage. You can’t compete with me.” That man said to Han Man coldly and then turned to leave since he lost interest in Han Man. Many people came here for training because they enjoyed the fun of torturing people, but those who truly pursued Martial Tao wouldn’t enjoy the pleasure of torturing others. Instead, they would specifically find people with similar strength or those who were even stronger than them to fight. Only by doing so would they be able to stimulate their potential and bring out the greatest effect of the training.
“Wait.” This was Han Man’s first battle since he set foot on the Wind And Cloud Gorge, so how could he give up so easily? With the release of his martial soul’s power, Han Man was immediately enveloped by a layer of yellow halo, as if he had become one with the earth. In the same time his aura also got stronger.
“Earth Martial Spirit.” That person’s interest was piqued, then he smiled at Han Man and said, “Not bad, your martial soul, now try to take three of my punches.”
After saying that, that person took a step forward and instantly appeared in front of Han Man.
“Boom!” An earthen yellow radiance blossomed as dust flew into the air. Han Man took another five or six steps back as blood seeped out from the corner of his mouth.
“Again.” Han Man touched the blood on the corner of his mouth. With his heroic spirit, he advanced instead of retreating. The earthen yellow luster of his martial soul became brighter and brighter, as if it had become one with the earth.
“BOOM!” A deafening explosion rang out as Han Man retreated eight steps, while his opponent retreated three steps as well.
“Wonderful.” The man shouted and a white glow blossomed on his fist as he warned, “Be careful, I’m going to use a martial skill.”
“Alright.” Han Man answered and took a step forward. With every step he took, the ground trembled as a powerful force surged out.
“Borrowing momentum.” Lin Feng stared thoughtfully for a moment before he smiled. He didn’t expect that Han Man would learn to borrow momentum during this battle. Using the earth martial soul, drawing upon the power of the earth and borrowing the power of the earth, he actually made his opponent retreat a few steps.
“Rumble.” The two fists collided against each other, and a layer of dust enveloped them. A moment later, they appeared, and Han Man sat on the ground, lost in thought.
“He actually gains a further insight.” The person standing opposite to Han Man started laughing as a trace of blood seeped out from the corner of his mouth. He did not expect Han Man’s final strike to be so powerful, which actually injured him slightly. But it was worth, since this battle also enabled him to gain a further insight.
With a move of his body, this person immediately left. He did not disturb Han Man.
“Interesting person.” Lin Feng and Jing Yun came to Han Man’s side. They had a hint of respect for the man just now, since he was a true man.
The two of them naturally knew that Han Man seemed to have comprehended something and naturally did not disturb him. They sat beside Han Man and waited quietly.
A sudden enlightenment was something that was hard to come by. A sudden enlightenment was something that could be found only by chance and not sought after by martial cultivators. One could imagine Han Man’s rapid improvement in strength after he woke up. Lin Feng and Jing Yun were both envious of him for having such an epiphany after his first battle in the Wind And Cloud Gorge.
Time slowly passed. At this moment, a powerful aura was suddenly emitted from Han Man’s body, causing Lin Feng and Jing Yun to be startled. They looked at each other in shock.
“This power is so powerful, it gives people a deep feeling of ancient times. Is this truly the power of sudden insight?” Lin Feng inwardly exclaimed. Martial Tao was indeed vast and boundless. Right now, he had only just set foot on Martial Tao. He was simply unable to imagine how those Mighty Persons would use their own strength to move mountains, fill the seas, and destroy the heavens and the earth.
“Rumor has it that the Emperor of Martial Tao could soar into the sky and travel thousands of miles in an instant. His soul doesn’t die, and his fleshly body doesn’t perish, just how powerful is he?” A trace of yearning appeared in Lin Feng’s heart. One day, would he be able to soar to the highest heavens?
While Lin Feng was pondering, a man walked over from not too far away. He looked at the enlightened Han Man and gave a cold laugh.
“Wake up.” The domineering voice was deafening as it shook the space and directly came to the ears of Lin Feng and the rest.
“Wow!” Han Man groaned as he spat out a mouthful of blood. His aura fluctuated fiercely.
He stared at the man in the distance with his red eyes. Almost, he felt that, almost, he could control that power. But at this critical moment, he was interrupted, and this person was directly aimed at him. The voice entered his ears, causing him to spit out blood.
“Shameless.” Lin Feng’s expression was ice-cold. He stood up and stared at the man in the distance. This person was actually aimed at Han Man and had even interrupted his enlightenment. How shameless.
Han Man took a step forward and stared at him as he asked angrily, “Why?”
“No reason. It’s just fun.” This person was not wearing a mask. There was a mischievous look on his face with a spurious smile. The three of them did not recognize this person.
“Fun?” Han Man took a few steps forward, releasing a cold aura. He clearly understood how difficult it was to gain enlightenment from a moment ago. However, he was forcefully interrupted and was even injured.
“Hehe, you want to fight? However, I am not satisfied here. How about we go to the Platform of Life and Death? ” The young man’s tone was full of contempt, as if he was looking down on Han Man.
“Alright.” Han Man was holding a grudge and agreed without any hesitation.
“I’ll wait for you.” The young man moved as he headed towards the Platform of Life and Death.
“Han Man, you don’t know his strength. Rashly going up to the Platform of Life and Death is very dangerous.” Lin Feng advised.
“I can feel his cultivation. It’s the same as mine, the Eighth Level of Qi Martial Stage.” Han Man’s reply caused Lin Feng to be slightly surprised. Han Man could sense his cultivation?
“I don’t know what’s going on, but I can also feel your and Jingyun’s cultivation. It is probably due to my sudden insight just now.” Seeing Lin Feng’s puzzled expression, Han Man explained to Lin Feng, then followed the young man and left.
“Let’s go.” Lin Feng was slightly surprised. He caught up to Han Man with Jing Yun, hoping that this was really the case. If the young man was also at the Eighth Level of Qi Martial Stage, based on Han Man’s sudden insight just now, he might have a chance of winning.
Wind And Cloud Gorge, Platform of Life and Death, which was located in the middle of the gorge. There was a total of ten platforms that protruded from the ground and were connected together. The area around the platform was a plain with a vast view.
At this moment, when Han Man and the young man stepped onto the Platform of Life and Death, it immediately attracted the attention of the crowd. Instantly, many people rushed over.
Although there were a lot of people who entered the gorge, but very few people went up to the Platform of Life and Death. After all, life and death were determined by fate when going up on the Platform of Life and Death, and no one was willing to risk going up the platform without a great hatred. Even if there was a great enmity, both sides still had to have a similar cultivation, so they both dared to go up and fight.
Thus, when Han Man and the young man stepped onto the Platform of Life and Death, the surrounding crowd rapidly increased and gathered around the platform to watch from the sidelines. Moreover, above the gorge, there were also people who noticed what was going on here. The news that someone had went up to the Platform of Life and Death was spread at speed.
“Life and death are decided by fate once you go up to the Platform of Life and Death. Now, your life and death are under my control.” The young man sneered at Han Man and said, “Han Man, remember, the person who wants to kill you is called Jiang Huai.”
Lin Feng who was sitting below the Platform of Life and Death frowned after hearing those words. He suddenly felt a trace of conspiracy.
“You know me?” Han Man asked angrily.
“Heh heh.” “Jiang Huai laughed evilly as he began to emit a fiery aura, a scorching Flame Aura. At the same time, a phantom flame appeared behind him, a martial soul flame.
“He is indeed at the Eighth Level of Qi Martial Stage.” Lin Feng felt a little relieved when he sensed this aura.
Han Man released his Earth Martial Soul as well and he took a step forward. Although his speed wasn’t fast, with every step he took, the aura emanating from Han Man grew stronger.
“Raging Flames Palm.” The tyrannical hot palm wind dashed towards Han Man, but Han Man suddenly stamped his feet. He remained unmoving as a mountain and shouted, “Mountain Splitting Fist!”
The fist and the palm collided with each other. The two of them stood firmly on the spot, neither taking advantage of the other.
Jiang Huai frowned. He didn’t expect that Han Man’s strength was actually not any weaker than his. A trace of an evil grin flashed across his face as he waved his left hand. Han Man tried to block this attack with his hand. But a heap of white dust fell on his face and on his eyes.
“Go to hell.” Jiang Huai availed himself of the opportunity to get in and punched Han Man in the chest, directly blasting Han Man away.
“Despicable.” Lin Feng loudly cursed. Just as he was about to step onto the Platform of Life and Death, he saw a man suddenly appear in front of him.
“Once on the Platform of Life and Death, life or death are determined by fate. Don’t be anxious, it’ll be your turn soon.” The man said coldly. Jing Yun stared thoughtfully at him when she saw his face.
“Jing Hao.”
After crying out in alarm, Jing Yun saw the person behind Jing Hao. He was the one who was injured by Lin Feng. Everything suddenly became clear.
