The Invincible Dragon Emperor

Chapter 83: Ghosting Shadow Kick

Translator: Panda_Penn Editor: Chrissy

"Go to hell—"

Over at the west yard of the Liu Family compound, Patriarch Qing roared and dashed towards Lu Li. The former had no weapon in his hands, and the only thing special about him was that he was wearing a pair of copper boots—a pair of shining copper boots.

He leaped forth from a stone fort which then stumbled to the ground. Xuan Energy was glowing on his legs. Patriarch Qing ran towards Lu Li like a storm of wind. Lu Li had crippled Zhao Rui which enraged Patriarch Qing.

Patriarch Qing was so quick that Lu Li did not have time to do anything after he broke Zhao Rui’s leg before Patriarch Qing approached him.

Patriarch Qing was in this weird position. He flew in a sidelong way with his legs before his body. It seemed that his attack was dependent on two legs.

As a matter of fact!

All of Patriarch Qing’s fighting capacity was from his legs. He had the "Ghosting Shadow Kick" which was well-known in the Wu Ling County. Lu Li heard the sound piercing through the air and he immediately realized that this move was not easy to counter. One careless move, then he would lose his life.

This pair of copper boots must be some sort of Xuan Artifact, and a high rank one no less. There were spikes at the front and back end of the boots. If one’s head were to be hit by the boots, it would be cracked open.

Patriarch Qing moved so fast that Lu Li could not run away. He pressed his body downward and held tight to his Heaven Kylin Sword. Using his maximum energy, Lu Li chopped at the copper boots that were approaching him in a tremendous speed.

"Clank, clank, clank~"

Some muffled explosive sound rang. Lu Li’s arms were numb from the shock, and qi and blood tumbled over in his body. After he chopped for five times, he finally managed to force one of Patriarch’s leg back.

"Swish~"

However, Patriarch Qing’s another copper boot suddenly swept at Lu Li, and the first one moved back in a speed as fast as lightning. Patriarch Qing was in a horizontal position mid-air as he kicked his legs constantly. On his mind, he intended to kill Lu Li once and for all.

"Hoy!"

Regardless of the fact the his qi and energy were tumbling over in his body, Lu Li still kept swinging his Heaven Kylin Sword and cut at the copper boots that were constantly coming at him.

Clank, clank, clank, clank!

Several muffled sounds burst out. Lu Li was backing away. Only after he retreated for more than a dozen steps did he regain his balance.

On the other side, Patriarch Qing landed on the ground. He kicked backwards on the ground and ran towards Lu Li again without a second of pause. He made his moves so fast like a bolt of lightning, leaving no chance for Lu Li to breathe and relax.

"How is that possible?"

Lu Li believed that his strength must be more powerful than that of Patriarch Qing, but he himself had been forced to go backwards under the constant kicks. On the other hand, Patriarch Qing was not affected for even a little bit.

Even though Lu Li was not clear exactly how much strength he had, but it was definitely over 150,000 pounds. Granted, Patriarch Qing was at the latter stage of the Spirit Sea Realm and he utilized his Xuan Artifact, but it was highly unlikely that he would have such power.

"Xuan Skill!"

Lu Li finally saw it through. Patriarch Qing should have in him some kind of Xuan Skill that could be used to increase his strength, or that his Xuan Artifact could decrease Lu Li’s strength somehow.

"Hiss~"

Patriarch Qing’s copper boots were getting closer, zooming in in Lu Li’s eyes. Lu Li couldn’t afford to be distracted now. In a battle of this level, one careless move would mean that he would be pierced through by the spikes on the copper boots.

Lu Li exerted all his energy to cut with his broadsword. Time and time again, he had beaten back the copper boots, and over and over again, he was forced to go backwards because of the shock.

"Hoy!"

Patriarch Qing bellowed as he lifted one of his legs, which were glowing brightly, and hit forcefully at the Heaven Kylin Sword. Lu Li felt an enormous force coming his way. He was smashed away and landed inside a stone fort. A big hole appeared on the wall.

"Poof…"

Lu Li could not keep the blood inside his mouth anymore. He crawled up and squirted out some blood. Hearing the shrill noise outside, Lu Li suddenly throw him through the wall on the opposite side without leaving himself sometime to adjust his breaths.

"Boom!"

A sound of something clashing against the wall came through. The boulder above the stone fort fell, and the entire stone fort collapsed to the ground. Luckily, Lu Li had made a timely retreat, or else he would have been buried alive.

"Whoosh!"

Lu Li moaned and groaned to himself seeing that Patriarch Qing was rushing toward him like a shooting star. It would not work out for him if things went on like this. Lu Li’s hands were trembling already. If Patriarch Qing were to land several other kicks on him, Lu Li then would not be able to hold his Heaven Kylin Sword. He could die before he even knew it was going to happen.

"What to do?"

In the moment of life and death, the train of thoughts ran quickly inside Lu Li’s mind. Lu Ling had told him never to relinquish, not even when it had come to the most difficult times.

To run away was not possible, so he had to fight with all he had left.

He had put all his cards on the table, except for Little White. However, Patriarch Qing had been attacking with his legs. His hands were unemployed, so he could smack Little White to death easily if it went out.

Was there anything else? Probably the only thing left was the Rolling Thunder Xuan Skill.

He still had more than a dozen strands of Xuan Strength left inside his Spirit Sea. The issue was that he could only release one now, which wouldn’t do much to increase his strength. It was not that useful.

"Whoosh!"

Patriarch Qing had made his moves and his legs were coming at Lu Li like two streaks of light, glowing and glistening in the air. The velocity was so frighteningly fast that Lu Li couldn’t even tell which leg came first.

Lu Li, clenching his teeth while exerting great efforts, had to muster his Xuan Energy in an attempt to defend. If he did not do this, he would die right away.

Clank, clank, clank~

Patriarch Qing’s moves got more and more barbaric with each kick. It was like billowing tides and waves, each one more ferocious than the last one. Patriarch Qing seemed to want to drown Lu Li.

Bang!

Yet again, Lu Li was knocked off backwards because of the shock. This time, he flew for about 40 feet before he stopped and crashed into a tree. There was so much force that the tree of the size of a human head was broken.

"Poof~"

Lu Li got up, and spit out some blood again. However, this time, he looked confused. All he could think of now was Patriarch Qing’s constant kicking shadows like raging tides.

"Incessantly, tides after tides?"

Some idea came to Lu Li’s mind. He was enlightened. An answer finally presented itself for a problem that had been perplexing him for a long time.

The Rolling Thunder Xuan Skill!

The key of the Xuan Skill lied in releasing the Xuan Power one strand after another, which would raise the strength in an overlapping way. However, the Xuan Power was pretty much like a bomb. When one bomb was detonated, the others would explode at the same time as well. If the Xuan Power could not be released strand by strand, then the overlapping effect could not be achieved.

Finally, it was all clear to Lu Li now.

The Xuan Power could be allocated to his arm one strand after another like waves. Previously, Lu Li did not know about this trick. His dullness of perception was suddenly removed. He had gained the insight of a very abstruse sentence in the Rolling Thunder Xuan Skill secrete manual.

"Swish!"

Another shrill noise came through. Lu Li’s hands were still trembling, and blood was still at the corner of his mouth. Yet this time, a light shone through his eyes, as if they were the brightest stars in the night sky.

"Little White, go hide!"

Lu Li said gently. A white blur passed in front of his chest and disappeared into a ditch nearby.

"Hoy!"

Lu Li stood up and bent his legs a little bit. He held his broadsword with both of his hands and cut at the copper boots that were approaching him forcefully. Right at the moment when the Heaven Kylin Sword and the cooper boots made contact, Lu Li’s arm flickered, and then glowed for five times in a row. The Heaven Kylin Sword seemed to have morphed into lightning. In the time it took for a single breath, Lu Li had cut for five times.

"Bang!"

This time, Lu Li did not fly backwards. Instead, Patriarch Qing was knocked away into flying. Even though Lu Li could only put five strands of Xuan Energy into use, his strength had been increased for five times in a row by at least 50%. In such a short time, he had chopped for five times. How could Patriarch Qing withstand that?

"Hoy!"

Lu Li once again pressed down his legs and leaped forward. He pointed his Heaven Kylin Sword at the head of Patriarch Qing who had just got up.

All Patriarch Qing’s power was relied on his legs. How could he defend without a single piece of Xuan Artifact in his hands? There was nothing for him to do but to roll over on the ground. He managed a narrow escape.

"Little White!"

Lu Li shouted in a deep voice. Once again, his broadsword chopped at Patriarch Qing constantly like tides. Patriarch Qing was forced to roll around on the ground in an effort to dodge Lu Li’s attacks. Patriarch Qing was no longer in the position of being able to go on offense now.

"Swoosh!"

Preciously at that moment, a white blur shot out of the ditch nearby and ran into Patriarch Qing’s robe, aiming at his neck directly.
