Duanmu Xue saw Lufan wake up and was very happy, immediately challenging him to a duel.
"Alright," Lufan replied, wanting to verify his earlier guess about whether his Nine Yang Inner Strength could withstand Duanmu Xue's Overlord Battle Qi.
"Be careful!" Upon hearing Lufan's agreement, Duanmu Xue's eyes lit up. She clenched her right fist and launched an Overlord Hammer strike towards Lufan!
In an unarmed situation, Duanmu Xue preferred using pure power techniques like the Overlord Hammer because they were explosive and fierce.
However, this time Lufan was no longer in a position where he could only take hits without fighting back. Instead of dodging, he also clenched his fist and struck directly at Duanmu Xue's fist! It was a head-on clash, fist against fist!
Fist Technique, Mighty Vajra!
The Mighty Vajra Fist was also a technique that relied on overwhelming power rather than specific moves. By using this technique, Lufan aimed to see whose strength was superior: his Nine Yang Internal Skill or Duanmu Xue's Overlord Battle Qi.
Boom!
The two fists collided perfectly, and the immense force caused both Lufan and Duanmu Xue to stagger backward, leaving a series of deep footprints on the ground!
Indeed! Lufan smiled; this collision showed that Duanmu Xue's Overlord Battle Qi was completely blocked from entering his body. However, similarly, his Nine Yang Inner Strength could not overcome the Overlord Battle Qi either. In this exchange, they were evenly matched.
It seemed that the "Overlord" cultivated by Duanmu Xue was also a top-tier Secret Technique. No wonder even her master had not taught her any new techniques. Lufan suddenly wondered why the Duanmu family, with such powerful techniques, had fallen to become a small family in Qingyang City. This strange thought flashed through his mind.
Before he could ponder further, he suddenly felt a pause in his breath as a sense of danger pressed toward him from across the way!
He looked over and saw Duanmu Xue on the opposite side, her body slightly sinking as she assumed a peculiar stance. Under Lufan's gaze, something marvelous happened: Duanmu Xue's originally black eyes turned red. Not only that, but even her jet-black hair was tinged with a hint of wine-red, shimmering under the sunlight.
At the same time, an aura several times stronger than before emerged from Duanmu Xue. This aura was domineering and oppressive, filled with a sense of threat; the danger Lufan felt came from it.
With her fierce aura, deep red combat attire, and ruby-like eyes, at that moment, Duanmu Xue resembled a true War Goddess, a Female Overlord!
In Lufan's astonished gaze, Duanmu Xue spoke slowly: "The 'Overlord' I cultivate is a very special technique. Even within my clan, I am the only one who has mastered it in a hundred years. It is said that to practice this technique, one must possess the same physique as my ancestors.
The greatest strength of 'Overlord' does not lie in the Overlord's Blade, Overlord Spear, or Overlord Hammer, nor in the Overlord Battle Qi; these Secret Techniques are merely supplementary Martial Arts Techniques of 'Overlord.' The true power of 'Overlord' comes from the powerful battle body forged using Overlord Battle Qi—the Overlord Body!
Only by cultivating the Overlord Body can one truly unleash the power of techniques like the Overlord Hammer; otherwise, they are just slightly more powerful ordinary Martial Arts Techniques. The Overlord Body is divided into nine levels; I have only reached the fourth level so far. This is my first time demonstrating it, so I cannot estimate its power. You need to be careful!"
After saying this, Duanmu Xue clenched her fist and explosively compressed the air in her palm. With a loud bang, she created a large pit beneath her feet. Her figure suddenly became blurry and when she reappeared, she was already in front of Lufan, launching a lunging punch directly at his chest!
Lufan's expression changed drastically. Duanmu Xue's punch was explosive; even before her fist arrived, the pressure was almost suffocating—its power had increased several times compared to before!
Moreover, this punch carried an unparalleled domineering aura that added to its might. Even Lufan did not wish to take it head-on.
An ordinary Fifth-Rank Martial Practitioner would likely be killed outright by this punch. Lufan recalled the Black-hearted Tiger from back then; if he were still around, just this punch alone would be enough for Duanmu Xue to kill him instantly!
However, Lufan was not an ordinary Martial Cultivator. Since he could not take it head-on, he decided to deflect it. Facing Duanmu Xue's ferocious punch, his arm suddenly became incredibly relaxed. He swept his palm in a graceful arc toward Duanmu Xue's arm to intercept it.
Tai Chi Chuan, Lan Que Wei!
The Lan Que Wei of Tai Chi Chuan can be described as a technique that uses softness to overcome hardness, specifically designed to counter powerful Fist Techniques. The key to this move is accurately grasping the changes in the opponent's force and finding an entry point within it—like how Lan Que Wei captures energy.
Lufan, with his meticulous level of mastery, found the weak point in Duanmu Xue's power in an instant, allowing him to execute the move Lan Que Wei.
However, just as Lufan thought this move was foolproof, at the moment his palm was about to make contact with Duanmu Xue's arm, almost impossibly, Duanmu Xue retracted and extended her fist, evading that flaw. As a result, Lufan failed to successfully neutralize the force and had no choice but to take the punch head-on.
A tremendous force erupted from Duanmu Xue's fist. Lufan's expression changed as he staggered back seven steps, leaving seven deep footprints on the ground before he could dissipate the full impact of the punch. In this exchange, he had actually lost a move!
Lufan's expression grew serious as he pondered what had just happened. Logically speaking, with his level of mastery, he should not have lost to Duanmu Xue in terms of technique. Yet, the reality was that he indeed lost a move.
Was it carelessness? Or mere coincidence? No, it was neither; Lufan could discern that much. However, looking at Duanmu Xue, it seemed she herself was unaware of the instantaneous change in her technique just moments ago; everything appeared instinctual.
Instinct? Lufan suddenly recalled when they were at the Ten Thousand Great Mountains, fighting against Black-hearted Tiger. At that time, Duanmu Xue, despite being inferior in strength and speed to Black-hearted Tiger, always managed to counterattack at seemingly impossible moments. The situation then was quite similar to what had just occurred.
Is this what they call the intuition of a combat genius? It truly is terrifying; possessing such abilities in battle is incredibly overwhelming.
But isn't that precisely what makes it interesting? Lufan chuckled inwardly and decided to unleash his true strength to conclude this fight.
"I didn't expect you to be this formidable, Big Sister. You truly live up to your title as Violent Queen. Calling you a Female Overlord wouldn't be an exaggeration. It seems that in my current state, I can't win against you. So, let me transform and fight again."
With these words from Lufan, he began to fully channel his Inner Strength, and his skin rapidly turned golden.
The sounds of Tiger Roar and Dragon Chant echoed as he activated the Golden Bell Shield and Iron Cloth Shirt! (To be continued.)
