Chapter 85 Battling Qi Hao (2/2)

Whispers broke out when the numerous parties outside the valley saw this change. Zhou Yuan had already been completely suppressed in the earlier exchanges. Now that Qi Hao’s attacks had grown even fiercer, it was likely that Zhou Yuan’s defeat was near.

Zhou Yuan raised his head at this moment, his gaze falling upon the golden spear that was rapidly closing in on him as cold light surged in his eyes. He breathed in deeply as a glow emerged under his clothes.

“Gold Ape Moves the Mountain Rune!”

A low shout echoed in Zhou Yuan’s heart as a complicated rune began to surface on his skin.

Zhou Yuan’s body began to shake. He could feel an astonishing power explode within his body and spread to his limbs.

As the power surged within him, his body seemed to grow a little bigger.

Five fingers tightened around the Heavenly Yuan Brush as his foot stamped on the ground. Cracks spread as his body shot forward in a perfectly straight line, the Heavenly Yuan Brush thrusting forward, clashing once again with the golden spear.

Clang!

Brush and spear tips ferociously collided.

A ripple that could be seen with the naked eyes swept outwards, sweeping away all the loose rocks on the ground, even turning a quite a few to dust.

Bang!

Zhou Yuan’s and Qi Hao’s bodies jerked slightly at this moment, each feeling an astonishing force surge towards them. The force destabilized their bodies, causing them to take a dozen shaky steps backwards.

*Uproar*!

This scene caused an uproar to emerge from the numerous onlookers.

Because neither party had gained the upper hand in this clash!

“How is this possible?!” Shock surfaced in Qi Hao’s eyes. He had practically gone all out in his previous attack with the intention of overwhelming Zhou Yuan. Who could have imagined that it would lead to such a result.

Zhou Yuan steadied himself. In contrast to Qi Hao’s shock, the former was much calmer. The Gold Ape Moves the Mountain Rune was a grade 2 Genesis Rune, and granted its user a tremendous amount of power. With this power, he was finally able to match the advance Qi Nourishing stage Qi Hao.

“Finally filled the gap...”

Zhou Yuan gripped the Heavenly Yuan Brush as he looked towards Qi Hao and grinned. “Let’s have a good fight.”

The brush tip shook as green light suddenly poured out. The light extended a whole ten inches as its color grew deeper and deeper. It was the Auraflare technique.

Qi Hao expression grew even darker as he gazed upon the flickering green light at the tip of Zhou Yuan’s brush. With a jerk of the golden spear, a sharp without equal green light also surged out.

Qi Hao frostily said, “Using your Auraflare technique before me is truly reckless!”

Swish!

A chill surged through the air as their gazes met, before they both shot forward a split second later.

Bang! Bang!

At the bottom of the valley, two figures criss-crossed at lightning speed, spear and brush clashing time after time as the aftershocks of their attacks devastated the area. Deep scars decorated the ground wherever they passed.

Both individuals had pushed themselves to their limits.

Numerous gazes were gathered on the fight. The ruthlessness and viciousness of the two made several expressions change.

No one had expected that the one whom they had originally thought would be easily crushed, Zhou Yuan, would be able to go so far in a direct clash against Qi Hao.

“Prince Zhou Yuan is actually rather capable.”

“Who ends up winning or losing is really up in the air now…”

“But Qi Hao still has a greater chance at victory. After all, the Genesis Qi of an advance Qi Nourishing stage expert is both more abundant and stronger than an initial stage practitioner like Zhou Yuan. Such a pity, such a pity indeed…”
