Chapter 696: An Old Foe Appears
It was quite the resolve one must say. It was just like the final courageous and righteous act of a powerful expert before he died.
Or perhaps the mad and mental move of someone that couldn't accept death after failing and wanting to have one last moment of satisfaction before death.
Well, it could have been one of the two if it weren't for all the experts that suddenly appeared from every corner of the lobby, having a nasty look on Tianlong Yun.
It wasn't everyone, only the leader, but it was still extremely disturbing to the eye. The truth was that Tianlong Yun didn't remember ever having crossed paths with this guy.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have been alive there and then, which made him wonder quite a bit just what kind of matter lay amidst the two.
Thinking like that he completely ignored the presence of Patriarch Okamura Ito and only concentrated on the guy looking at him with that expression, and asked,
"I don't remember you ever crossing my way. So, why are you looking at me like that? It's quite disturbing and it's making me want to kill you even before I start the slaughter here!"
"Hhahahaha~! I guess that at least that much is to be expected from a descendant of the Yao family. Even though you are just a bastard! Hahahah~!"
The guy didn't seem to think much of Tianlong Yun's words. In fact, he seemed like they were just the bluff of someone who had thought too highly of himself.
He was so assured of his win in this upcoming battle, that he went as far as to show his identity in front of Tianlong Yun.
"Oh~! The Yao family, to think that even you guys would put your nose in this place! I truly wonder where do you find the confidence!
But it should be impossible for so many of you to enter this country without a partner here, and the Okamura Clan is just servants, which means that you have a bigger partner here, right?
Quite smart, you help your partner start conflict and get rid of their minions here, while they do the same in your house!
It's a great strategy!
The only thing left to understand is who is your partner here, and then I can give a good blow to the Esteemed Yao family!"
"Hahahaha~! Why bother, I will tell you who is our partner here 'Young Master', even though I doubt that this information would do any good to a dead guy!
It's the Kiri's!
Now that you know that you can go and die in peace!"
With that said, the leader of the newcomers made a sign towards everyone to start attacking and be over with their 'Young Master'.
These guys were no joke, most of them were in the Nascent Soul Realm, but there were also experts of the Soul Formation Realm, Boundary Ascension Realm.
Not to mention that Patriarch Okamura and the leader of the newcomers were both Great Boundary Ascension Realm experts, even though on the early levels.
This formation would be enough to take down even a middle to high-level Great Boundary Ascension Realm Master.
Unfortunately for these guys, Tianlong Yun wasn't the normal and ordinary early levels Great Boundary Ascension Realm powerhouse either.
The moment that everyone jumped in to attack, he immediately expanded his Blood Law, and Fierceness Law, turning the lobby into his special hunting grounds.
Once the Laws were expanded, the surroundings would be overflown with the intent, and elements of the Laws expanded, pushing away the other elements from the area.
This meant that the opponents would have their strength, abilities, and skills restricted. To be more specific everyone inside Tianlong Yun's hunting grounds would lose at least 24% of their natural strength.
That might not look like much, but in a fight between real experts and powerhouses, even 1%, or even 0.01% is an extremely large gap that makes a change.
Especially when it's considered to be a death battle.
Furthermore, that wasn't just a simple restriction on one of them but on them as a group. The worst part was that once one of them would use his ability or special moves.
The used elements would disappear from the zone and it would be extremely difficult for the elements to recuperate.
But surely they had no idea of this, and even less to know what they were faced with, as the first thing they did was use their most showy and powerful skills.
They most probably felt and thought of putting an end to this quickly, and then go deal with the rest of the attackers outside, but unfortunately, the result was way out of their expectations.
Not only didn't they reach their goal, but at the same time, they understood their drop in strength and were faced with a truly scary image.
Tianlong Yun had transformed into his full form, a being that wasn't even recorded in any of the mythologies or fairy tales of Earth.
He didn't raise any defensive barrier or used any defensive technique that was his natural body's defensive ability.
Yet all the flashy and strong attacks that fell upon him didn't cause even the slightest scratch in his scales, or his bony wings, or even reduce the flaming effect covering him.
At that moment, Tianlong Yun looked like a dashing and powerful demon king that not even the whole world could takedown.
"J-Ju-Just wh-what a-are y-you?"
"I am simply your Grim Reaper!"
Those were the last words that the poor leader could hear before Tianlong Yun appeared in front of him and slapped him to the ground.
The physical strength of a body cultivator who had opened the 8 hidden gates was beyond the imagination of these poor guys, who turned into nothing more but easy targets.
It was just like a little kid squatting flies who had lost their wings on the floor one after the other. The only remaining pieces of evidence were the blood sprayed on the floor and the deformed bodies.
"Monster!
He is a monster!"
These were the thoughts resonating in the hearts of each and every one of the experts inside the lobby.
But the most heartbroken among them was most certainly Patriarch Okamura, who couldn't help but curse his greed and ever jump into this hell with excitement.
If he were to turn back time and return to his body right now, he not only would have rejected this idea, but he would also kick his own ass just to make him understand the gravity of that choice.
Too bad that time travel wasn't possible, no matter how strong and how supernatural someone became, it was impossible for him to turn back time.
He could only look in disbelief as Tianlong Yun slapped the experts on his side left and right, to turn them into mush paste, or truly deformed bodies.
It was a nightmare!
It took him quite some time to regain a bit of his senses, but by that time it was too late already. He could only scream in pain, regret, and rage,
"AARRRGGHHH~! You damn monster~! I am going to kill you~! ARRRGGGHHH~!"
The build-up was truly good, he seemed like he was about to destroy his body and his soul just to kill Tianlong Yun, but the guy himself didn't seem to care much about him.
Even more enraged by the fact that he felt that he had been taken lightly, Patriarch Okamura jumped towards Tianlong Yun with a quick draw of his sword.
'Swwiiiisshhhh~!'
The build-up of the half-step Kage ninja seemed simple, but his presence seemed to have been condensed into a line, and the moment that he drew his katana, it converged on its sharp blade.
'Claaaaaaaaannnnnnggggggg~!'
That beeline seemed capable of cutting through every living thing on Earth, but the moment that it crashed on Tianlong Yun's body it was the same as hitting a metal bunker with a thick aluminum foil.
But that wasn't the end of it, as even the observing leader of the trapping experts seemed to have chosen precisely that moment to make an attack on Tianlong Yun.
'Swwwoooosshhhh~!'
A shiny golden sword seemed to have been formed behind Tianlong Yun and was coming at an amazing speed towards his heart.
In the leader's mind, while Tianlong Yun was strong there wasn't much to him. He shouldn't be able to stop two attacks from two experts like him and Patriarch Okamura.
'No matter what kind of monster you are, it's impossible to escape this! I will certainly kill you, and then check your body about your secrets.
Hahahaah~! Who would have thought that I would have such a fate! I will make sure that you don't have a complete body later.
This is what inexperienced brings you kiddo, don't blame me for being smarter! Hahahaha~!'
Inside the guy's mind, everything was over, Tianlong Yun would get pierced by the golden sword for sure, and he would be able to get his hands on something that would give him wings.
He couldn't believe his luck at that moment!
It wasn't only him, all the other living experts around were thinking the same, or to be more exact they were wishing for that to be the case.
It was certain that if those two attacks didn't kill him, or cause him critical injuries, then it was impossible for them to have a chance at living through this.
So, they had to believe that it was enough. Even the non-believers couldn't help but pray to God, Buddha, Heavens, or whatever crossed their mind first, for the attacks to work.
Finally, the golden sword arrived not even one fraction of the second after Patriarch Okamura's attack
