Chapter 225: Chapter 195: The Powerful Power King_2

The Barefoot Immortal sighed and spoke.

"So, when Oda Nobunaga and I fight later, can you help?" Rosen asked the question he wanted to know the most.

At the moment, Oda Nobunaga could crush Rosen. If he fought alone, he was very likely to die, meaning that as the Chosen One, he would be finished before he even had a chance to make a difference.

"We can’t. The established rules prevent us from intervening; otherwise, the long-term stability we’ve built will be destroyed. This rule is also a way to prevent both sides from falling into a cycle of reincarnation as much as possible," said the Barefoot Immortal.

Rosen understood that the reason both factions were taking this kind of wheel battle approach was actually to minimize the damage from the Heavenly Dao’s reincarnation.

Otherwise, if Oda Nobunaga swept through, crushing the Order Faction, the Heavenly Dao could eliminate Oda Nobunaga in one go.

Similarly, if our side’s strong members ganged up on their weaker ones, after killing those weaker ones, our strong members would also face punishment from the Heavenly Dao depending on the situation.

Only matching strong opponents against strong ones, and weak against weak, aligns with the rules of reincarnation.

As for Rosen, a weaker opponent going up against Oda Nobunaga, a renowned enemy, it wasn’t exactly unfair. After all, it was a battle between the Son of the Demon and the Chosen One, a contest of fortune, focusing not on their individual strength but the fortune of their factions.

Therefore, even if Rosen were to die in battle, the Heavenly Dao’s reincarnation cycle wouldn’t punish Oda Nobunaga because it was the direction of fortune.

Heaving a sigh, Rosen felt that this time it seemed certain he would die.

If he wanted to avoid the battle, the Order Faction wouldn’t agree.

But just then...

Meng Die came to Rosen’s side, gently giving him a comforting hug.

A sweet fragrance lingered, and Rosen’s negative emotions quickly eased.

"No one would choose to go to their death willingly, and we won’t watch you march to your death. When it really comes to a critical moment, Senior Sister will definitely lend you a hand."

Meng Die’s words made Rosen somewhat touched.

"Senior Sister, have you gotten plump? Why do you feel chubby?" Rosen suddenly blurted out.

"Ah, what are you focusing on? You’re about to die, and you’re not even nervous?" Meng Die reproached him slightly exasperatedly.

"Ah, didn’t you just say I wouldn’t die, and you’d pull me back, so why are you now certain I’ll be killed by Oda Nobunaga?" Rosen asked, somewhat incredulous.

"Even if we intervene at a critical time, we cannot save you from Oda Nobunaga’s hands, understand the reality!"

Meng Die said whilst poking Rosen’s chest.

Rosen found the poking annoying yet somewhat close, as if Meng Die were like his sister.

"So, is there any remedy? Am I just to be sent to the battlefield without enough power?" Rosen asked.

Meng Die asked, exasperatedly, "This isn’t something we wish to see either. Who knew your rescue of Tang Xichen would spark a war between the two factions? At first, I gave you advice to increase the success rate of rescuing Tang Xichen, not realizing it would eventually lead to a large battle between the factions; this clearly happened years earlier than anticipated."

"For now, our faction’s Power King, Barefoot, and Miao Renfeng can still hold the situation. Oda Nobunaga can win against one of them, but according to the Heavenly Dao’s rules, he can only be restrained by you. Even if he eliminates you, he cannot openly kill our second-tier powers; otherwise, he too would fear the effects of the Heavenly Dao. But his second-tier are still enough to give us a headache."

As Meng Die finished speaking, someone from the Chaos Faction said, "Stop delaying; let’s send up the second tier from both sides quickly. Power King, I’ve had my eye on you for a long time. I’ve heard your strength is close to our Oda Nobunaga; I’m eager to see how strong you really are?"

A short figure from the Chaos Faction suddenly stepped onto the stage, saying, "I am Cheng Shifei of the Unbreakable Diamond Body. Power King, come and show yourself!"

"Unbreakable Diamond Body?!"

From the Order Faction, everyone’s eyes fell on the bronze-skinned short figure, and their expressions fluctuated.

"Unbreakable Diamond Body, the one who used to be an elder around Oda Nobunaga and once blocked several attacks from the Profound Celestial Great God?"

Decades ago, Cheng Shifei became famous for resisting several attacks from the Profound Celestial Great God. Later, he became an elder around Oda Nobunaga. But he hadn’t been notable since, perhaps due to a lack of publicity, yet his defense and offensive abilities should not be underestimated.

"Power King, be careful facing him, understand?" Barefoot Immortal advised Power King.

Power King nodded in response and silently stepped up to the arena.

Then, just a few seconds later.

"Ah!" A scream echoed, and the bronze-skinned short figure was thrown out!

Landed on the ground, he spat blood continuously.

The blood sprayed far and wide, splashing onto the statue of the Freedom Goddess behind, making the statue appear even more eerie. The sinister fangs were smeared with Cheng Shifei’s blood.

"No, how could this be, it’s impossible! Even if my Unbreakable Body hasn’t improved, it still withstood several attacks from the Profound Celestial Great God back then. Why can’t it hold even a single blow from a second-tier opponent now?!" Cheng Shifei was astounded.

"Well, it’s simple. Over these years, Power King has grown stronger than the Profound Celestial Great God. Did you think others didn’t grow just like you?"

The Barefoot Immortal sneered.

"What, growth so rapid, isn’t this almost like flying?" Cheng Shifei was shocked.

"Cheng Shifei, your limit is just that. It’s no wonder you remained lukewarm and withdrew from the Elder Council. Step back and let the Elder Council handle it!"

A cold voice from the Chaos Faction spoke.

Five black shadows appeared swiftly behind Cheng Shifei, one grabbing him and tossing him back.

Among the five, Princess Yunluo, discontented, said, "Cheng Shifei may have weakened, but he is still my old lover. Can’t you be a bit more gentle instead of just tossing him around?"

The elder who tossed Cheng Shifei glanced at Princess Yunluo, saying, "You’ve indeed worked hard to progress and became part of the Elder Council, but your power remains the weakest among us. Though stronger than Cheng Shifei, you’re still too weak and not qualified to order me around."

Upon hearing this, Princess Yunluo was quite angry, wanting to pelt the elder with a cloud egg.

"You wait, a duel in the small woods later!" Princess Yunluo pointed at the elder.

The Power King, who hadn’t spoken, finally did, asking, "Who among you goes first, or are you coming all together?"

The Fire Cloud Evil God from the Chaos Faction’s elder council said, "Let me go; I am relatively bottom-tier among the council. I just want to either kill you or be killed by you!"

With that, the Fire Cloud Evil God crawled on the ground and spewed a Toad Skill attack.

Seeing this, Power King became serious, stepping back with his right leg, left hand in front, his right fist clenched and pulled back, then thrusting it straight out.

A punch!

A seemingly simple yet overwhelmingly powerful punch, imbued with rules to shatter all arts.

It crushed grotesquely.

The Fire Cloud Evil God’s head swelled, as the pressure caused internal blood vessels to enlarge, leading to intracranial pressure and a stroke, causing his head to swell from excess blood.

At this moment, Fire Cloud Evil God muttered a quivering sentence, "Such a fearsome punch...I’ve never seen such direct...a punch, stronger than a descending palm...!"

Bang!

A deafening explosion.

The Fire Cloud Evil God was easily taken down just like that.

Seeing this scene, the remaining four elders of the Chaos Faction were startled.

"How could it be so strong, instantly killing the Fire Cloud Evil God?!"

The Elder Council that was initially eager immediately lost momentum.

Fear of battle brewed, causing delays.

"Power King has improved too fast, too strong; Boss, you go."

"Why should I go? No.2, your ability just counters him."

"Nonsense, my ability is playing with dirt, counter what?"

"Princess Yunluo, aren’t you brave? You go?"

Suddenly all attention turned to Princess Yunluo, as if forcing her to take the stage.

"Nonsense, I am super brave!"

Princess Yunluo wiped her sweat, her face twisting unnaturally.

Walking toward the arena.

However, Power King coldly glanced at Princess Yunluo, squeezing out a sentence: "I don’t hit women!"
