Chapter 1203: Force Meets Force
“What a freak! Why isn’t he dead yet?!’
Xiao Qi yelped in shock at the sight of an alive and well Qin Long.
Bai Yunfei narrowed his eyes as his mind rapidly calculated a plan. “What kind of art is this? Is he invincible as long as his head is intact? I can’t use a soul attack since it’s useless. Doesn’t this mean he’s basically a wild beast...?”
The more he thought about it the trickier Bai Yunfei felt this fight was. Soul attacks were pointless in the fight, meaning his Soul Sentinel Scarf was useless. Elemental attacks were similarly useless, so his attack-rebounding armor hadn’t much use. His opponent was someone that fought without thought and enjoyed close-ranged combat. To make matters even worse, Qin Long was a stage higher than he was. Bai Yunfei would lose whether it was in speed or strength unless he used Berserk Mode to even the odds. Either way, this would be a difficult battle.
There was still Mo Ni and Lu Suxing to consider. And the battle taking place above Mt. Crimson. Bai Yunfei couldn’t expend too much of his soulforce dealing with Qin Long.
“Watch out, Yunfei!!”
Xiao Qi cried out in warning as Qin Long rushed at them again. Flapping his wings, he sent two giant whirlwinds to impede his path.
“Bang!!”
The way Qin Long reacted was a bit strange. Rather than dodging, he used a Law to protect his body before scattering apart Xiao Qi’s attack with his right fist. Two gusts of wind sliced across his body, but they simply gleaned off his body as if they were striking metal! No longer obstructed, Qin Long spun around to strike Bai Yunfei!
His fist was already coming close to Bai Yunfei’s face, it’d be hard for him to dodge it now!
Bai Yunfei took a half-step back. Summoning his soulforce to him, Bai Yunfei cocked his hand back and aimed a punch at Qin Long’s fist!
“Bang!!”
The two fists collided with devastating force to send both fighters flying backward.
Bai Yunfei grimaced as he held his trembling right arm. His clash with Qin Long had been a painful experiment on Qin Long’s abilities and had him rethinking his plans.
“Fine then! If you want a close-combat battle, then I’ll give it to you!”
“Xiao Qi, tell Li Chengfeng and Xiao Binzi to not do anything. I’ll deal with him!”
“Eh?” Surprised to be told to retreat, Xiao Qi took a second to nod his head. “Alright!”
If Bai Yunfei said he would fight him, then Xiao Qi had nothing else to do but agree.
“Hehe...come on then!!”
Despite the pain in his right arm, Bai Yunfei looked happy. His blood boiled in him as he waited impatiently for Qin Long to attack. Stepping forward, Bai Yunfei leaped forward to meet Qin Long head on!
“Bang!!”
The fists collided once again and the two were forced to split once again. This time, it was Bai Yunfei who looked worse for wear and was the one to fly farther than the other.
“.....”
Li Chengfeng and Xiao Binzi were both speechless at the sight of Bai Yunfei and Qin Long fighting it out like this.
“Yunfei said we shouldn’t help him and that he has it figured out.” Xiao Qi spoke at that moment.
“He wants to fight by himself?” Li Chengfeng asked, “What’s his plan?”
“Relax, Yunfei will win.”
......
“Bang!”
“Bang!!”
“Bang!!”
Li Chengfeng and Xiao Binzi watched in confusion again as Bai Yunfei and Qin Long clashed head on. This didn’t even look like a battle between soul cultivators anymore, but a battle between two brawlers.
The two used elemental energy only to protect themselves. Never once did they use it to attack the other, and neither did the two use any soul attacks. Bai Yunfei wasn’t even using the Fire-tipped Spear or any of his soul armaments to deal with Qin Long.
The way Qin Long fought didn’t even resemble how a Soul Emperor would fight. He was more like a wild beast than a person and had astonishing physical strength. Not even his flesh was like that of a human anymore. Any average Soul Emperor would definitely not have the physical strength to defend against his attacks.
Yet, Bai Yunfei was no ordinary Soul Emperor. His body was strengthened by his soul armament and could easily fight on the same level of strength as Qin Long.
Still, Bai Yunfei was weaker than Qin Long by a stage. Not even his soul armament could bridge that gap, and it showed since Bai Yunfei was on the losing end.
And yet Bai Yunfei fought without retreating. He was fighting as though it was like his final stand, but Xiao Binzi and Li Chengfeng simply didn’t understand what Bai Yunfei was doing at all.
“Why...does it look like Yunfei is getting stronger and stronger?!” Li Chengfeng asked Xiao Binzi in confusion.
“I see it too, his movement and soulforce recovery is better than before. He’s not using the Dual Flame Artes...so what is he doing?”
“He’s not just getting stronger...the enemy is getting weaker!” Li Chengfeng gasped, “How’s he doing that?!”
......
“Bang!!”
The two clashed again, this time with Bai Yunfei and Qin Long’s fist slamming into each other’s stomach to send each other flying.
This time...the both of them flew an equal distance away!
Bai Yunfei wasn’t in a bad shape. His robes were tattered and his arm had blood dripping from it, but he looked extremely excited for some reason as if he couldn’t even feel his wounds...
“Haha! Again!!”
Bai Yunfei shouted before charging at Qin Long again!
“Roar!!”
Qin Long charged at Bai Yunfei again with a bloodthirsty roar and unfocused eyes!
“Boom!!” The two struck once more and were once more sent flying back.
Bai Yunfei staggered across the skies, stumbling across the air for about a hundred meters before coming to a stop.
But Qin Long, on the other hand, was still flying like a kite with broken strings. Blood was spilling out from his mouth!
