Chapter 250: Thank Goodness We Didn’t Mess with the National Advisor! A Single Punch from the National Advisor Overturned the Azure Dragon!
The half-zhang tall boulder shattered like a piece of tofu.
The debris flew in all directions, with pebbles sweeping around like machine gun bullets.
Fei Yan’s snow-white hands moved continuously in front of her.
Golden light shot forth, deflecting all the incoming pebbles.
Before she could even catch her breath, a tremendous explosion sounded on the river surface!
A massive azure figure burst out from the riverbed!
Like a serpentine mountain ridge descending from the heavens.
Boom!
The heavy body hit the ground, causing the earth to tremble.
Fei Yan’s delicate face grew serious as she looked up at the giant in front of her.
A dragon head the size of a house, with a massive body over ten feet long.
Four legs like copper pillars, with razor-sharp blades on the claws.
The blades gleamed with a cold light and had thick edges.
It could cut a person in half, let alone a tiger.
The main body of the giant was made of bronze.
It emitted a green glow under the blazing sun.
It looked incredibly imposing, and its oppressive presence was palpable.
Just looking at it was enough to make one’s heart race, let alone defeat it!
“Azure Dragon?”
Fei Yan’s eyes grew cold, and her lips parted with unprecedented seriousness.
“Roar!!!”
Azure Dragon opened its wide mouth and roared menacingly at Fei Yan.
A giant claw, larger than a millstone, came crashing down on her!
“Too bad, it missed her.”
Inside the Mohist Sect’s mechanical city, Dao Zhi and Old Man Ban observed the situation outside through a lookout hole behind the door.
That previous strike was earth-shattering; if Fei Yan had been hit, she would have been severely injured if not killed.
But she reacted with exceptional speed.
Days of nonstop exertion had not worn down her vigilance.
“Elder Ban, should we take this opportunity to send the disciples out to seek chances?”
Dao Zhi gritted his teeth, harboring a deep hatred for Fei Yan.
He had relied on his leg skills to conquer the world.
Now that his leg was broken, even if it healed, it might leave permanent damage.
Old Man Ban shook his head with a dark expression.
“Impossible, once Azure Dragon is unleashed, there’s no coming back.”
The Mohist Sect’s most powerful mechanical beast, Azure Dragon, unlike the White Tiger and Vermilion Bird Beast,, did not require human control.
Once released, it would wreak terrible havoc.
No one could stop it until its energy was depleted.
It lacked emotions and recognized no kin.
Any living being within its attack range would fight to the death.
Because of these terrifying characteristics, the Mohist Sect had always kept it hidden.
They dared not deploy it unless absolutely necessary.
Now, they were forced to deploy this great calamity against the eminent Yin-Yang Dongjun!
“Tsk tsk tsk, you’re right. Let’s see if Dongjun survives this time,”
Dao Zhi also understood the fearsome nature of Azure Dragon and felt elated at the thought of avenging his grudge.
Old Man Ban watched Fei Yan struggling to cope outside and breathed a sigh of relief, feeling fortunate. “Thank goodness for the Azure Dragon left behind by our Mohist Sect ancestor.”
“This Dongjun truly lives up to her reputation as the top practitioner of Yin-Yang School; her strength and talent are indeed terrifying.”
Just one Dongjun was enough to make the Mohist Sect afraid to show their faces.
Although all were among the Hundred Schools of Thought, this incident made the disparities clear.
“Her talent is frightening, but I’ve heard there’s someone even more formidable in Qin State,”
Elder Ban glanced at Dao Zhi and said, “You mean the Qin State Master who destroyed Han in three days?”
“That’s him!”
Dao Zhi put his hand inside his clothes, scrubbing at the grime on his body.
He continued speaking with fervor, “I’ve heard he’s younger than Dongjun and already a master of the Transcendent Realm.”
“He caused such upheaval in Han that even Emperor Han couldn’t deal with him.”
“Fortunately, we’re not dealing with him; he’s not only extraordinarily powerful but also backed by Qin State.”
“Even Emperor Yan would have to give him some respect.”
“We can’t afford to provoke him; we can’t afford it!”
Dao Zhi’s tone was filled with relief.
Provoking the Yin-Yang School invited Dongjun to come knocking.
If they had provoked the Qin State Master, they might have faced an army!
Elder Ban nodded in agreement.
An empire couldn’t be compared to the Hundred Schools of Thought.
Even a declining Yan State was unshakable for the Mohist Sect.
Let alone a powerful state like Qin.
Currently, Qin was at war with Zhao State.
Qin was sweeping through Zhao’s forces with unstoppable momentum.
Anyone could see that Zhao’s defeat was only a matter of time.
Once Qin destroyed both Han and Zhao, it would unquestionably become the most powerful state among the kingdoms.
No force would dare to provoke such a behemoth.
Dao Zhi lay on the lookout, reveling in the scene outside.
Azure Dragon’s entire body was made of bronze.
Fei Yan’s “Dragon Travel Qi” strikes only resulted in dull thuds on it.
For that large and heavy body, it was nothing at all.
Moreover, the Azure Dragon was a mechanical beast, devoid of pain and fatigue.
Its core driver was hidden inside its most fortified head.
Right now, Fei Yan couldn’t even break its defenses, let alone destroy it.
But she was different.
With just one mistake, if hit by the Azure Dragon, she’d meet a tragic end.
“This Dongjun is stubborn, even now he won’t retreat.”
Elder Ban and Dao Zhi each peered from different lookout points, murmuring in confusion.
At this rate, Fei Yan would eventually tire out; retreating now was the wisest choice.
Dao Zhi laughed gleefully, gloating, “Hehe, if she won’t leave, then she can stay here. Such a pity, this beautiful maiden will soon be gone.”
Boom!
A gigantic paw the size of a millstone landed near Fei Yan’s nose.
The impact caused stones to fly up.
Missing its target, the Azure Dragon gave her no chance to breathe.
Its massive tail moved with incredible agility, sweeping towards her.
A humming sound filled the air, indicating the immense power of this strike.
A cold sweat broke out on Fei Yan’s jade-like back.
Her beautiful eyes were solemn, teeth clenched.
Her hands formed seals at lightning speed, a Golden Crow shot out from her body.
The radiant Golden Crow was surrounded by streaks of blue light, looking splendid and dazzling, colliding with the sweeping tail of the Azure Dragon.
A thunderous boom echoed like muffled thunder in a mountain valley.
It sent the Mo sect disciples in Mechanical City’s ears ringing.
“Whoa! What technique is this, with such power?” Dao Zhi exclaimed, covering his humming ears in awe.
“Huh? What did you say?” Elder Ban experienced a brief ear ring.
He could see Dao Zhi’s lips moving but couldn’t hear him.
The massive dragon tail was forced back by the strike.
They thought the crisis was over, but the Azure Dragon proved more agile than Fei Yan had anticipated.
Before she could summon “dragon spirit” again, the house-sized head was already smashing towards her!
The Yin-Yang School’s techniques were indeed powerful.
But they had the flaw of requiring hand seals to charge.
Though Fei Yan formed seals extremely quickly, she still found it exhausting to face this relentless and tireless assault.
Keep in mind, she was already at the pinnacle of the Free and Unfettered Realm, a master on the verge of advancing to the Transcendent Realm.
Even she felt helpless against this Azure Dragon, showcasing the horror of Mo sect’s ultimate weapon!
For regular people, they would have long perished under the Azure Dragon’s claws!
The Azure Dragon steadied itself, its claws coordinated with its enormous head as it lunged towards Fei Yan.
Its tail swept side to side again, blocking all her escape routes.
“Good! Let’s see how you escape this time!”
Dao Zhi, watching at the doorway, shouted excitedly.
With all escape routes sealed, even an immortal hit by the Azure Dragon would lose half their life.
Not to mention Fei Yan, a mere mortal.
Old Man Ban, whose ear ringing had just subsided, also let out a heavy sigh of relief.
He turned to instruct, “No one can withstand an Azure Dragon’s strike, have the disciples ready to open the door.”
Just as he finished speaking, a loud rumble sounded outside!
Dust fell from the gates of Mechanical City.
Hearing the sound, Old Ban felt reassured.
He called to Dao Zhi, “Make way, I’m sending the disciples to open the door now, don’t get caught in between.”
Dao Zhi stuck to the door like a lizard, muttering incessantly.
Old Man Ban patted Dao Zhi’s shoulder, teasingly smiled, “Muttering about what? Heartbroken over the beautiful maiden’s fate?”
Judging by the commotion, Dongjun probably couldn’t leave a whole corpse behind.
“No…can’t…can’t open the door.”
Dao Zhi’s face turned pale, eyes trembling.
It seemed like he had seen a terrifying scene.
“Why can’t we open it?”
Old Man Ban was startled.
Could it be that Dongjun from the Yin-Yang School dodged that strike?
Dao Zhi stiffly turned his head, face full of terror.
Huge beads of sweat rolled down his forehead.
He swallowed hard, pursed his pale lips.
Trembling, he said, “If I told you the Azure Dragon was knocked over with one punch, you wouldn’t believe me, right?”
