Chapter 185 – Fighting Hard, Gravely Wounded, Unable to Continue

Roar, roar, roar!

With a single palm strike, Ye Kuang forced three Elders back, but he couldn’t help spitting out a streak of crimson. The scattered specks of scarlet stained his long robe as he slid backward for at least several dozen feet!

The three Elders were no better off—each of them vomited blood violently, collapsed to the ground, and wore expressions of shock and terror.

Ye Kuang: “Ah…”

Bang, bang, bang!

At that moment, the area within a fifty-foot radius around him exploded with his raging aura.

If he could illuminate the moon, he would willingly transform into the sun’s radiance to shine upon the distant shore. If the skills he had learned were only for contention, aggression, and entangled desires, what was the original purpose of acquiring such abilities?

Thinking of this, Ye Kuang couldn’t suppress the fury in his heart, his tiger-like eyes widening in rage, his emotions vividly displayed on his face.

Just then, Yuan Jiaxiong strode forward boldly, boasting without restraint: “Well done, lad! I initially thought Yuan Jiahui’s words were exaggerated and unreliable, but I never expected you to truly hold your ground against several Innate experts while only in the Clarity Realm.”

As soon as he finished speaking, Yuan Jiaxiong turned his head, pointing one by one at the nine besieged prisoners, and continued with a cold laugh: “But what does it matter? Once these people meet the same fate as the others, you will be surrounded and attacked by over a dozen of us Innate experts. Do you really think your wounded body can grow three heads and six arms to withstand all of us?”

Hearing this, Ye Kuang glared with bloodshot eyes and declared resolutely: “A gentleman knows what to do and what not to do. As for whether I can win or not, I don’t need to know.”

Before his words fully faded, he continued indifferently: “I came today only to repay a debt of gratitude from the past. Now that the people are rescued, I stand alone. Whether you wish to fight or kill, I will accompany you to the end!”

As soon as he finished, Ma Jiaying dashed over, shouting: “Why waste words with this brat? Let’s just get it over with!”

While speaking, Ma Jiaying took the initiative to attack, clearly not wanting to delay any longer.

“To have both heads of the Yuan-Ma Families take action against you, kid, this is a first in the martial world,” Yuan Jiaxiong sneered, simultaneously leaping into the air.

Witnessing this, Ye Kuang showed no fear. Instead, he let out a maddened roar.

Boom, boom!

He fiercely struck both palms toward the sky, choosing to confront Ma Jiaying head-on.

Shockingly, both of them were sent flying dozens of feet backward by the force of each other’s palms.

Seeing Ma Jiaying flung away, Ye Kuang wanted to press his advantage, but unexpectedly, a blurry shadow flashed before his eyes.

Without a second thought, he viciously struck out with a Dragon Hand Seal!

Bang!

As the deafening impact resounded, the roar of wind and thunder echoed in his ears.

Despite his formidable strength, even Ye Kuang was forced back over ten feet by this violent blow.

With each step he took, the ground beneath him could not withstand the immense force, cracking and spreading out like a spiderweb.

At that moment, Yuan Jiaxiong retracted his right leg and suddenly launched another assault.

And Ma Jiaying was no different!

It could be said that the two had begun to fear him.

They feared Ye Kuang’s continued growth. Having just broken through to the Clarity Realm, he could already hold his own against several Innate experts with ease. If he were to break through to the Innate Realm, wouldn’t he…

But at this moment, regardless of what Ma Jiaying and Yuan Jiaxiong were thinking, Ye Kuang was utterly enraged!The Jade Void Creation Art and one hundred thirty years of cultivated power poured successively into his Divine Martial Body, causing his entire demeanor to abruptly transform.

If he had been in a state of fury moments before, the next second found his heart as still as placid water.

Swift as lightning, the moment arrived!

Ye Kuang raised his arms in a posture of holding up the heavens, and two Wandering Dragons emerged, weaving through his arms and chest, revealing their fierce visages.

At the same time, Ma Jiaying and Yuan Jiaxiong launched their simultaneous assault.

“Die!”

“Tiger Crane Form Fist!”

Ye Kuang met their shouts with an icy gaze. As his palms joined and then separated again, he thrust forth the Universe in Palm directly at the two.

Twin Dragons Draw Water!

Roar! Roar! Roar!

The roar of tigers and howl of dragons arose, filling the air with thunderous echoes.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

In an instant, the fifty-meter radius seemed bombarded by countless grenades, the deafening roar ceaseless.

Even across the three battlefields, ears were filled with the force of Thunderbolt, eyes met with billowing smoke and swirling dust.

With just his palms, Ye Kuang not only blocked the combined strike of the Yuan-Ma Family heads but also firmly anchored them to his palms, forcibly engaging in an Internal Energy contest.

As the three roared in fury, each unleashed their full power in succession.

“Brat, release me!”

“Release you? Not a chance! Even if I sacrifice my life today, I’ll reduce you all to utter waste!”

“Ah… bastard!”

Hearing this, Ye Kuang couldn’t help but laugh heartily, appearing utterly deranged!

Ma Jiaying: “Brother Yuan, think of something quickly!”

Yuan Jiaxiong, enraged by these words, bellowed: “How the hell am I supposed to think of anything? Ah!”

No sooner had he spoken than Yuan Jiaxiong suddenly felt his Dantian Qi Sea involuntarily draining away, terrifying him into continuous roars: “What’s happening? My Internal Energy is gradually disappearing!”

At these words, Ma Jiaying suddenly recalled something, his face taking on a ghost-seeing expression.

“Hahaha…” Amid maniacal laughter, Ye Kuang couldn’t conceal his elation—he had unexpectedly discovered another use of the Jade Void Creation Art. When contesting Internal Energy with others, it could infinitely extract their power and convert it for his own use.

And at this moment, the power he extracted was significantly greater than before.

If previously he could only absorb trace amounts, now it flowed like fingers-thick streams.

Eventually, both Ma Jiaying and Yuan Jiaxiong turned ashen-faced, cursing and raging incessantly.

In contrast, Ye Kuang’s entire Qi Sea brimmed with vitality, causing golden-red hues to alternate across his face, though he dared not utter further provocations.

For within his Dantian, turbulent energies raged, blood trickling from his mouth, nose, and eyes, rendering him specter-like.

This transformation resulted from forcibly absorbing the two family heads’ Internal Energy, causing his body to succumb first to the agony of energy infusion.

“Ahhhh…”

Instantly, all three howled in fury, yet found neither heaven nor earth answering their cries.

This scene unfolded with such speed that none could have anticipated it.

Ma Jiaying and Yuan Jiaxiong’s faces instantly paled as they were completely drawn into Ye Kuang’s body.

At that moment, the four seated Yuan Ma Eldors trembled in horror, each revealing expressions of witnessing the supernatural.Two bulging lumps unexpectedly appeared on Ye Kuang’s chest, moving back and forth. In just a moment, with a furious roar, both lumps were completely expelled from his body.

When Ma Jiaying and Yuan Jiaxiong suddenly appeared, they were utterly dumbfounded.

The two inevitably collapsed to the ground, their eyes vacant and spiritless, still seemingly unable to believe that their lifelong cultivation had been completely stripped away!

Even Ye Kuang was not spared—the waves of sharp pain surging throughout his body nearly drove him mad.

He then immediately sat cross-legged, clearly no longer caring about anything else.

It could be said that not only was Ye Kuang severely injured, but there were also countless chaotic streams of energy rampaging within his Dantian. If he failed to fully control them, his fate would be predictable!
