Chapter 897: Chapter 897: You Still Have One Last Move

The stone slabs seemed to come to life, like an earth dragon turning over and rushing towards Ning Fan’s feet.

"Is that all?"

With a delicate tap of his toe, Ning Fan jumped up like a nimble swallow, avoiding the move.

"Long Yun, have you lost your mind?" he taunted with a sneer at the corner of his mouth, "You think such a move could hit me?"

"Young man, being too arrogant can lead to miscalculations."

Long Yun looked up, his palms crossing in front of him, and the invisible force followed the wave of his hands, creating ripples in the air like water currents.

"Twin Dragon Gathering!"

As the deep voice echoed, both palms striking simultaneously, two smoke dragons abruptly condensed and shot straight towards Ning Fan in mid-air.

In mid-air, with no leverage.

Unavoidable!

"Good! Truly worthy of being Master Long Yun!"

"That kid is too foolish; he didn’t realize Master Long Yun was luring him to jump!"

"Hahaha, he’s definitely done for this time!"

Amidst the crowd’s mockery, Ning Fan cracked a smile and quickly stepped alternately in the air.

Bang bang!

Spiritual Power surged, borrowing strength from nothingness.

As the smoke dragon reached him, Ning Fan simply tilted his body slightly, deftly avoiding the smoke dragon’s gaping maw.

Ladder of Clouds Ascend!

Long Yun’s pupils shrank, his face filled with disbelief.

"It’s said that masters can borrow force from force, performing unimaginable techniques. Ladder of Clouds Ascend is one of them."

"I thought it was just a legend, but you’ve actually managed to cultivate it!"

In that moment, Long Yun’s esteem for Ning Fan rose to its highest.

No matter who Ning Fan followed to cultivate, being able to develop such a skill on his own showed his incredible talent in martial arts!

"Heavens... How did he change his position out of nowhere?"

"Is he stepping on his own foot? Is that even possible?"

"This is unscientific! It’s totally unscientific!"

The spectators gasped in amazement, many rubbing their eyes vigorously, not daring to believe what they had just witnessed.

Borrowing strength from thin air, how could that be possible?

Ning Fan sneered, his form lingering in the air, looking down upon Long Yun from a high vantage point.

"Long Yun, you have one last move left!"

As he spoke, the Spiritual Power within his body began to surge.

Feeling the power radiating from Ning Fan, Long Yun shook his head regretfully, "Your martial arts talent exceeds anyone I’ve seen, but unfortunately... your experience is still lacking."

"With the next move, I won’t kill you, but I’ll severely injure you as a lesson," he said.

With that, Long Yun took a step forward, his right palm slapping out again.

Whooosh—

In an instant, gusts of wind arose, howling from every direction.

Ning Fan, right in the midst of it, watched as these fierce winds coalesced into a smoke dragon far larger than the previous one.

"Roar!"

The deep roar, like thunderous rumbling, detonated and echoed through the sky.

An aura, countless times more formidable than before, once again enveloped the entire Nine Dragons Arena!

"What kind of move is this?"

"Unbelievable; can martial artists truly possess such power?"

"My God... such a formidable realm is simply beyond our reach!"

Everyone felt the overwhelming power emanating from the smoke dragons and a deep fear welled up in the depths of their eyes.

If that kind of power were to fall upon them, they would be easily crushed into dust!

"Master!"

Shuang’er’s face was etched with alarm, and she was about to make a move to rescue.

Ning Fan was suspended in midair, and the three smoke dragons had completely sealed off all his avenues of escape.

It meant that the attack was inevitable!

"This is my fifth move."

Long Yun stood with his hands behind his back, seeing the outcome of this battle as already decided.

Even with Ning Fan’s extraordinary abilities, there was no way he could avoid it, and he would have to withstand it head-on.

To withstand this move would surely result in serious injury!

Across the entire Xia Country, there were no more than a handful of individuals who could withstand such a strike!

To be injured but not killed was already a testament to Ning Fan’s considerable strength and skill.

"Roar!"

Huo Erba’s body radiated a powerful golden light as he surged into the sky, attempting to help Ning Fan.

Shuang’er also leaped up, rushing towards midair with astonishing speed.

"You all just stay put."

With a casual wave of his hand, Long Yun unleashed an invisible force that howled out and formed chains, firmly binding the two of them.

"Bastard! Let us go!"

"Let... us go!"

Shuang’er and Huo Erba fell to the ground from midair, struggling with all their might to break free, yet they were totally incapable of contending with Long Yun’s power.

"Hahaha! That kid is done for!"

Suddenly, the Patriarch of the Bao Family burst into loud laughter.

Shuang’er’s heart skipped a beat, and she quickly looked up.

The three smoke dragons had completely engulfed Ning Fan, and their monstrous jaws fiercely snapped shut!

Boom!

Deafening roars exploded in midair as the smoke dragons burst apart, with their mighty power surging and spreading in all directions.

The clouds in the sky were dispersed by the forceful winds, revealing the clear azure heavens.

The power cascading from the zenith shook the entire Nine Dragons Arena incessantly.

The towering billows of dust obscured the view, leaving it entirely unclear what had become of Ning Fan.

"Hahaha, that kid is finished!"

"To even think of comparing himself with Master Long Yun, what utter delusion!"

"An ignorant fool gets what he deserves for such recklessness!"

The observing martial artists, seeing no more movement within the dust, assumed Ning Fan was at best severely wounded and began to laugh and taunt wildly.

The heads of the seven great families breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing this.

"Good, good, good, having Long Yun take action was indeed the best choice," the Family Head of the Yao Family said beaming with joy. "A madman like this deserves such a fate!"

"Truly worthy of being Master Long Yun, suppressing such a miscreant with a single move!" the Patriarch of the Bao Family laughed heartily. "With Master Long Yun here, Capital City will surely know no worries for a hundred years!"

"You are right! We can rest easy now!"

"Such a miscreant should be eradicated at the earliest opportunity!"

The other family heads also chimed in one after another, lavishing their praise on Long Yun without stint.

With Ning Fan dead, the crises faced by their families would be instantly resolved, and by showing their connections with Long Yun, their status would become ever more secure.

Without a doubt, for at least several decades to come, no one would dare challenge the status of the seven great families!
