1241: Chapter 1241: Collision of the Five Elements (Part 3)_1 1241: Chapter 1241: Collision of the Five Elements (Part 3)_1 “Long Yan, you’ve truly surprised me.”

Young Master Grim Reaper looked at Long Yan, a faint smile on his face, as if greeting an old friend.

Long Yan indeed surprised him.

First, Long Yan’s appearance at the Martial Assembly was unexpected and made the event more interesting.

He was further taken aback by how Long Yan successively defeated Gu Chunyang, Young Master Qilin, Godson, and Phoenix Dance.

As an assassin, Young Master Grim Reaper was highly qualified.

He never underestimated anyone.

However, at this moment, he felt he might have underestimated Long Yan.

Even now, he couldn’t discern the extent of Long Yan’s abilities.

“Is that so?”

Long Yan looked at Young Master Grim Reaper, assessing him in return.

He said, “Death God’s Pavilion Chief, I’m equally eager to see what kind of measures you have up your sleeve.”

Until now, Young Master Grim Reaper was the first person he had encountered who could control the Five Elements Power.

He didn’t underestimate Young Master Grim Reaper, but rather looked forward to seeing what strengths and strategies he possessed.

“The price for prying into my secrets may be heavy.”

Young Master Grim Reaper seemed to be implying something.

He quickly changed the subject, “Long Yan, since both of us have formed the Five Elements Body, why not use our control of the Five Elements Power to determine who is superior?

Win with style, lose with grace.

How does that sound?”

Both of them controlled the Five Elements Power.

According to Young Master Grim Reaper’s suggestion, the competition should be based on this power alone.

Perhaps he didn’t want to reveal his other strategies or perhaps he was wary of Long Yan’s other skills.

This seemed like an excellent choice for Young Master Grim Reaper.

“Are you sure?”

The corner of Long Yan’s eyes lifted, a faint smile appearing in his gaze.

“Of course, unless you are frightened!”

Young Master Grim Reaper confidently affirmed.

This was his proposal, and he was naturally confident about it.

“I accept then!”

Long Yan agreed instantly.

While he didn’t boast about his proficiency in the Five Elements Power, he was somewhat confident.

He wasn’t afraid of Young Master Grim Reaper.

Also, he was quite curious about Young Master Grim Reaper’s mastery of the Five Elements Power.

“Good, you can take the first hit!”

The Five Elements Power surged as Young Master Grim Reaper took the lead, fist flying towards Long Yan.

“Bring it on!”

The corners of Long Yan’s mouth turned upwards and he too let the Five Elements Power rise, meeting the attack with a punch of his own.

Boom, boom, boom…

In a flash, Long Yan engaged in fierce battle with Young Master Grim Reaper.

The Five Elements Power swept across the battlefield, tearing apart the Void with its ferocity.

“This is the power of the Five Elements.

It’s an incredibly powerful force.

Within the entire imperial area, likely only the two before our eyes can control the power of the Five Elements.”

“Both employing the power of the Five Elements, the determination of who is superior will depend on whose understanding of the Five Elements Power is more profound.”

“Young Master Grim Reaper is indeed clever.

Limiting the competition to the Five Elements Power restricts many of Long Yan’s abilities.

Truly worthy of the Death God’s Pavilion Chief position, such a cunning fellow.”

“Long Yan’s understanding of the Five Elements Power should not be low; Young Master Grim Reaper likely won’t have an easy time.”

…

When everyone saw that Long Yan and Young Master Grim Reaper had agreed to determine superiority through the power of Five Elements, anticipation filled the air.

After all, so far within the whole imperial area, only Long Yan and Young Master Grim Reaper could control the Five Elements.

However, some did guess Young Master Grim Reaper’s intention.

To only compete in the power of Five Elements was undoubtedly a way to limit Long Yan’s other abilities.

Young Master Grim Reaper’s move was indeed brilliant.

But since Long Yan had already agreed, it demonstrated that Long Yan had some level of confidence.

Boom, boom, boom…

Long Yan and Young Master Grim Reaper fought fiercely in the Void, the Five Elements Power raging, making the Void tremble.

Very quickly, Long Yan and Young Master Grim Reaper had been battling for more than one Time Unit.

At first, both were merely testing each other.

It wasn’t until the end that they truly went all out, controlling the Five Elements Power for intense warfare.

“The young master of Death God’s Pavilion truly lives up to his reputation.”

Having fought Young Master Grim Reaper up to this point, Long Yan almost understood the extent of his rival’s control over the Five Elements Power.

Having fused with the congenital True Five Elements and found the Five Word Mantra, his control over the Five Elements was unrivaled.

Yet, the level of Young Master Grim Reaper’s mastery of the Five Elements’ power was actually not inferior to his.

This truly surprised him.

No wonder Young Master Grim Reaper was so confident.

Not only was Long Yan surprised, Young Master Grim Reaper was equally astonished.

He hadn’t expected Long Yan’s command of the Five Elements Power to be so profound.

Achieving this, for him, had required countless hardships coupled with a few fortuitous encounters.

He had reached the Ancient Emperor Realm, whereas Long Yan was only in the Late Nirvana stage.

From this perspective, Long Yan had surpassed him.

“Five Elements Mysteries!”

Suddenly, Young Master Grim Reaper formed seals with both his hands.

As the Five Elements Mysteries unfolded, the mysterious power permeated outwards, filling the Void with the Five Elements Origin Power.

If only the power of the Five Elements was considered, he was evenly matched with Long Yan.

The one who was more insightful towards the Five Elements Power would win.

“Five Elements Mysteries, huh?”

A familiar aura pervaded the surroundings.

Of course, Long Yan knew that Young Master Grim Reaper was using the Five Elements Mysteries.

A confident smile curved at the corners of his mouth.

“Five Word Mantra, come forth!”

At the same moment, the Five Word Mantra burst forth from within Long Yan.

The Five Elements Origin Power surged from the Five Word Mantra, the dense Origin Aura threatening to collapse this part of the Void.

Birth, Destruction, Devour, Slay, Bury – five ancient and grand words guarded Long Yan’s surroundings.

These Five Word Mantras were the incarnation of the Five Elements Mysteries, hailing from an ancient legacy.

“Could this be the real Mystical Mantra?”

Young Master Grim Reaper’s eyes were drawn to the Five Word Mantra as well.

From the Five Word Mantra, he sensed the vast Five Elements Mysteries, resulting in the Five Elements Mysteries he controlled being suppressed.

He had once come across the Way of the Five Elements in ancient books, where it was mentioned that the Mystical Mantra existed within the Five Elements Mysteries.

These were the incarnation of the Five Elements Mysteries, incredibly ancient entities.

“Long Yan, so you’ve also inherited the Five Elements’ legacy.”

Young Master Grim Reaper eyed the Five Word Mantra, a burning desire in his eyes.

If he obtained these Five Word Mantras, his understanding of the Way of the Five Elements would skyrocket.

“That’s right, this is indeed the legacy I’ve received!”

Long Yan didn’t hide it.

This Five Word Mantra was passed down through Five Elements Child from his previous owner.

It was an undying legacy.

Even after controlling the Five Word Mantra up till now, he had only comprehended some basic aspects of the Five Elements Mysteries, and could not truly control the Five Elements Mysteries.

“The Five Elements Mysteries you command impose an instinctive suppression on me.

We both manipulate the same power, but each has its own merits.

It seems like you can’t genuinely control this Mystical Mantra.”

Young Master Grim Reaper said.

If Long Yan genuinely controlled the Five Word Mantra, its mysteries could suppress him.

However, it was clear that Long Yan hadn’t reached this stage.
