Chapter 702: Chapter 553 Sword Bravery + Chapter 554 Forming Bonds
"I’ve long heard of General Zhou’s invincible divine power, so please step into the formation. Should you break it, my Tang family will have no second thoughts and willingly accept your command.
If you know yourself outmatched, it would be better to withdraw your troops now and we’ll go our separate ways."
Just then, a crisp feminine voice came through.
As if a curtain of water was lifting, the hazy scene became clear. Standing in the square in front of the Tang Residence was a woman in green dress, her eyebrows brimming with heroic spirit.
She flourished her sword, creating a dazzling array of confusing lights and shadows...
It was a sight that made one reluctant to look away.
"Is this a provocation?"
Zhou Ping’an shook his head with a wry smile.
The remaining experts of the Tang Residence must all be here.
Zhou Ping’an, with his Mental Induction, detected thirty-six particularly strong presences, each guarding one of the thirty-six directions, and in the center of the formation was none other than the green-dressed maiden who had just appeared.
This was the first oddity.
The second oddity was the great Formation enveloping the entire square of the residence, which emitted an air of desperate, life-and-death struggle.
"Please wait, General Zhou, allow this old man to persuade Little Wan."
Feeling the faintly rising Evil Qi from Zhou Ping’an, Tang Shimin urgently said, "This Formation, named Immortal Art and Valor Heart, is only laid out at times of life or death for the clan. It tests one’s courage with the sword and their Literary Heart. Once inside, unless one side utterly dominates the other, it will inevitably exhaust every last drop of spirit and Blood Essence, its power without equal. General Zhou, I entreat you not to take the risk."
His face was earnest, not feigned.
He genuinely felt that Zhou Ping’an could not be overcome by this Immortal Art and Valor Heart Formation.
Not to mention the unpredictable movement technique similar to that of ghosts and gods during the previous ambush, the intricacy and magic of his Sword Technique was something he had never seen in his life.
At least, at the True Martial Realm level, Tang Shimin didn’t believe anyone could defeat Zhou Ping’an.
He even felt that all his actions and moves were no secret in the eyes of his opponent.
It seemed as if he could foresee everything.
The Mysterious Lady’s Pure Heart Sword Technique that Tang Wan that girl possessed truly claimed to check all eventualities and strike the enemy with certainty.
But what use was that precision in the face of an enemy who could foresee the first move?
Moreover, Tang Shimin had another hidden worry.
The moment his right arm was cut off and the Jade Talisman granted by the ancestral master was taken, he lost that thread of connection, which he had been Sacrificially Refining with his heart’s blood for over twenty years.
He had an inkling that the ownership of the Jade Talisman had changed.
What did this imply?
It meant not only had the talisman been snatched away, but the thief could also use it.
The capabilities of that jade talisman, which he had spent so long refining and understanding the Laws within, how could he not be clear about it?
If the thief brought out the jade talisman, this Immortal Art and Valor Heart Formation Technique wouldn’t stand a chance of triumphing over him; it could very well lead to total annihilation.
Of course, such an embarrassing incident of being outplayed and having his trump card stolen was not something Tang Shimin could openly acknowledge. His heart was secretly anxious, yet he had no solution.
For the resolute look on Tang Wan’s face had already said too much.
"No need to persuade her, it’s useless."
Zhou Ping’an waved his hand and then looked up at the skies over the Tang Residence, as if he could see the family’s fate burning like fire.
At this moment, he was surprised to find that the fortune of the entire Tang family was not tied to Tang Shimin, but to the green-dressed maiden.
Also, that extremely familiar sense of a threat made him understand.
The purpose of this formation may be similar to the "Righteous Blood Purifies the Heavens" wonderful skill that Tang Yuanqing had used before.
"If you think that by sealing off the Qi-Blood and True Yuan and simply competing in swordsmanship, you can win, you’re going to be disappointed."
"Since you’re not afraid, why doesn’t General Zhou try breaking the formation?"
Tang Wan’s heart chilled slightly upon hearing this, yet instead of anger, she smiled and pointed her sword diagonally towards the ground as she slowly spoke.
She quickly understood from where the opponent had sensed a secret.
But it didn’t matter.
The wonderful skill that uncle Tang Yuanqing executed by himself was fundamentally different from the skill used by the whole clan.
If the opponent believed that was all there was to it, he was in for a big surprise.
"Very well, let me witness your Tang family’s Immortal Art and Valor Heart. I hope you can still smile afterwards."
A flash of starlight twinkled in Zhou Ping’an’s eyes, but his mind was elsewhere. frёewebηovel.cѳm
Indeed, this Tang family formation had some merits.
It might not be so useful against him, but against the formidable monks of the Brahma Temple, it would really be effective.
Not just against the Brahma Temple, but when facing any power, it wouldn’t be at a disadvantage.
Their philosophy was simple.
I don’t need to be stronger than you.
I just need to bring you down to the same starting line, make you as weak as me, and then, with my own strengths, compete against you for life and death.
This method was ingeniously useful in ambushing and strategizing against some opponents with much higher Cultivation.
"Enough, I just hope that after this battle, my Tang family can still retain some vitality."
Tang Shimin watched Zhou Ping’an step into the square, his expression slightly sorrowful as if he foresaw a tragic end.
The dull pain from his freshly reattached right arm was nothing compared to the intense pain in his heart.
"Haha, Zhou Ping’an, from whence comes your confidence, daring to enter the formation? The world is vast, filled with Divine skills and wonderful abilities, and many mysterious Formations – you are far too arrogant. Today, I shall make you witness the foundational strength of my Tang family."
Tang Wan flourished her wrist to thrust her sword, stirring winds and clouds all around. A point of frosty light reached Zhou Ping’an’s chest, with the sword tip fluttering unpredictably.
Zhou Ping’an was astonished to find...
