Proud Goddess Falls in Love with Me
Chapter 852 - 852 812 Overdrawing Potential

852: Chapter 812: Overdrawing Potential 852: Chapter 812: Overdrawing Potential Lu Chuan’s relentless attacks left Wan Changdong powerless to retaliate.

He continuously stepped back, cold sweat streaming down his forehead, his breathing quickening significantly, his eyes hurriedly locked on the sword blade in Lu Chuan’s hand, not daring to divert his attention for even a moment.

In such a highly focused state of combat, fatigue quickly set in.

He took a deep breath, retreated several more meters, and after creating some distance, his eyes were firmly fixed on Lu Chuan.

“You lad, your strength is indeed not to be underestimated; I have underestimated you!”

“Since that is the case, I won’t waste any more time.

Right here, I’ll fight you to the end and show you how formidable I am!”

Whoosh!

Suddenly, he gripped the long knife with both hands, took a deep breath, and began to circulate Spiritual Energy within his body.

Streams of energy enveloped the blade.

As strands of energy gathered on the blade, he clenched his teeth, gripped the long knife tightly, and swung fiercely at Lu Chuan.

“Extermination Tornado Slash!”

A Sword Qi with a piercing sound was fiercely released towards Lu Chuan.

Whoosh!

This fierce Sword Qi, like a tornado sweeping everything in its path, assaulted Lu Chuan with high speed and tremendous force.

Seeing this, Lu Chuan did not hesitate either; he directly raised his left hand, gathering the Divine Fire of the Sun in his palm.

Next, Lu Chuan covered his sword blade with the Divine Fire.

A stream of Sword Qi, accompanied by flames, had already gathered.

Lu Chuan could not afford any hesitation, wishing to release this Sword Qi as quickly as possible, otherwise, he would be hurt.

Whoosh!

Lu Chuan also swung out his Sword Qi towards Wan Changdong.

The Sword Qis from both sides collided violently, creating a loud explosion.

Boom!!!

Sparks flew in all directions, countless flames scattered around like a rain of fire.

The Sword Qi released by Wan Changdong, breaking through the flaming Sword Qi, still ferociously approached Lu Chuan.

Seeing this, Lu Chuan did not hesitate, positioning his sword horizontally in front to block.

The weakened Sword Qi could no longer cause fatal damage to Lu Chuan; as long as he blocked well with his sword, he could avert the damage.

Clang~~~

The Sword Qi clashed against the Soul Terminating Sword in Lu Chuan’s hand, splashing dazzling sparks.

Hum~~~

A persistent buzzing sound was harsh, and Lu Chuan’s hands trembled uncontrollably.

Though the buzzing did not stop, fortunately, Lu Chuan blocked the Sword Qi.

Lu Chuan stood up again, took a deep breath, and firmly gripped the Soul Terminating Sword in his hands.

“This Sword Qi is quite powerful, but to think it could hurt me is still pure wishful thinking.”

Wan Changdong looked at Lu Chuan, suddenly feeling a sense of foreboding; his strike had not caused substantial damage to Lu Chuan.

This was almost his strongest offensive move.

If that was not enough, to be honest, he felt a bit weak at heart.

His gaze towards Lu Chuan became tense; he knew that if he continued to fight, there was a high chance he wouldn’t stand a chance of winning.

From the beginning of their plain exchange, he knew he was not as powerful as Lu Chuan, up to the clash of Sword Qi, which extremely tested one’s level of Spiritual Energy.

Though his Sword Qi was stronger than Lu Chuan’s, that was because he used a martial arts skill to break through Lu Chuan’s Sword Qi.

Whereas Lu Chuan, just by swinging a typical Sword Qi coated with flames, could achieve such a formidable effect.

If he were to swing out the same Sword Qi now, his body’s Spiritual Energy would definitely not permit it.

Lu Chuan could easily recreate the same Sword Qi from moments ago.

After weighing his options, Wan Changdong grew more convinced that victory would be difficult.

With his extensive battle experience, he could clearly discern the true gap in strength between them.

Lu Chuan looked at him and asked with a smile, “What’s wrong?

Aren’t you going to continue?

Are you already out of energy?”

“I am just looking for your weakness.

You’re about to be defeated by me!”

“Really?

Have you found it?”

“Nonsense.

If I had found it, why would I tell you?

Just wait for your death!”

Lu Chuan scoffed, “If you really had found it, would you need to say it out loud?

It seems to me you’re just trying to scare me.”

“Such a tactic might work on a newbie to the Martial Path, but against me?

You might as well save your breath.”

Seeing his ruse exposed, Wan Changdong became even more disheartened.

He took deep breaths continuously, trying to calm himself; in facing a powerful enemy, one must not be outdone in spirit.

“Call out the person behind you.

That’s the main event for me today.

I want to know what he’s here for, who he is, and if he’s from the Lu family.”

Wan Changdong looked towards Lu Chuan and said, “He is not from the Lu family, but his background is certainly not something you’d look down on.

He came for something on you.”

“Something on me?

Is it the Divine Tree branch?”

“Many want it, but he doesn’t have the right to take it.”

Wan Changdong looked at Lu Chuan and asked, “Is the branch with you?”

“Of course.”

“Good, since you have it, today will be the day this treasure changes hands,” he said confidently.

Lu Chuan then laughed, “Stop with the bravado.

If you want to fight, continue; if you’re too scared, then hand over the man, and I’ll give you an honorable death.”

“In your dreams!”

Wan Changdong gripped his long sword tighter and quickly walked towards Lu Chuan.

“Today, I will show you how formidable I am!”

At that moment, he pulled out a type of bottled potion from his bosom.

Then, he opened the lid, and immediately, a black mist escaped, entering his mouth and his body.

Immediately, he let out a comfortable sound and took a deep breath of relief.

“Ah!!”

Seeing this, Lu Chuan felt a sense of eeriness.

“What did you just drink?”

Lu Chuan asked.

“You don’t need to know, all you need to know is…”

He couldn’t finish his sentence when suddenly he felt a sharp pain in his chest, causing him to quickly raise his hands and cover his chest.

Then, he crouched halfway to the ground, his face contorted in pain and his forehead breaking out in cold sweat.

Realizing what had happened, Lu Chuan said, “You didn’t take something that is too much for your body, did you?

These kinds of substances can temporarily boost strength, but the damage they cause to the body is unimaginable.”

“You’d better stop now, or you’re going to die a painful death.”

“Enough talk, you’re just scared!”

Wan Changdong retorted loudly.

At that moment, Lu Chuan saw that, behind him, the usually azure-colored Martial Saint Battle Soul was mixing with streaks of black fluid.

Gradually, Wan Changdong’s Martial Saint Battle Soul turned a deep blue, crisscrossed with black stripes appearing on the Battle Soul.
