Bandit Leader Gu’s bloody body was already dissipated and his features was way clearer now, he has a sword-like brows like his two swords and a large black eyes, while his flat and wide nose defies his thin lips, but his face is not the most attracting part of his but his burning body. Though he was using the elements of earth, but he can activate the flame energy through activating his sword having the affinity of fire.

When the ring of flame reached 25 diameters, it quickly died down as it swiftly appeared. Bandit Leader Gu now saw Chen Yun who was at the 10 meters ground looking at him who was at the 5 meters ground, without dallying any further. He leaped and dash towards Chen Yun while the flames in his body trailed from behind.

When Chen Yun saw him, his two hands moved while it formed a unique hand seals that he only knows, it quickly increased it speed as Bandit Leader was nearing into him. It didn’t take long a large symbol manifested in front of Chen Yun and was still continuing at making different hand seals, his speed was so fast that was hard to follow. The symbol’s glow was shining brightly while Chen Yun was changing his hand seals.

When Bandit Leader was 5 meters away from him, he suddenly grabbed the symbol then he exerted strength to his two hands as if he was trying to rip apart the brightly glowing symbol.

Ri-riip!

A ripping sound sounded and the symbol was ripped apart!

“Construct and Condense!” Chen Yun shouted.

Hong!

The two ripped symbols suddenly dissolved but something shocking happened next!

“Haaaaa!” he shouted.

Boom!

Circular shockwave erupted from Chen Yun’s body outwardly and was slowed Bandit Leader Gu on his approach while he was enveloped by a rainbow-colored smoke that was swirling around him before floating towards the sky but when it reached a distance of 4 meters from him.

A two pieces of large gauntlet which was made up of rainbow-colored smoke appeared both Chen Yun’s hands. The gauntlets were as large as the head of a bull and its length has reached his elbows, the front of these gauntlets was a head of a White Tiger baring its fangs and a Black Turtle’s shell was attached to the back of the tiger and a pair of wings from a spreading Vermillion Bird at each sides while a flexible tail of an Azure Dragon was attached to the lower part of the tiger. The two large gauntlets enveloped his two hands as if he was wearing ethereal large gauntlets, illusory yet real, when he reach his two hands the large gauntlets just overlapped each other with no hindrances. Through his will he can make the two weapons to have physical body or transform it into ethereal body. His actions take too long to describe but was done in an instant.

Cloud Hands Art, Forming Stage’s True Form!

Since Chen Yun believed that the Forming Stage was not a useless stage of the three stage of Cloud Hands Art, it was actually a manifestation of one’s imagination to have an ethereal and physical body but with only one condition that he can only manifest one image and only be upgraded to the highest realm. He continuously studied this stage multiple times in this past two months as he journeyed towards the Blazing Spear City but all of it was only his conjectures with no definite answer because he never tried to execute it at that time. As he fought against Bandit Leader Gu, he knew that he can’t defeat him through attrition so he resorted on realizing his conjectures on the second stage that in the end, his theory was pleasantly correct!

Ka-Clang! Ka-Clang! Ka-Clang! Ka-C…….

At the same time he finished his manifestation of the two large gauntlets, Bandit Leader Gu attacked Chen Yun like a whirlwind attacking at the large gauntlets.

But the gauntlets unintentionally didn't budge nor felt affected as Chen Yun was still in a daze. The consecutive attack of Bandit Leader Gu wakes him up and was pleasantly shocked when he saw that Bandit Leader Gu couldn’t even move him.

If he was shocked then Bandit Leader Gu was scared shitless!

“How the heck did it turn out that the Cloud Hands Art becomes so overbearing?” Bandit Leader Gu thought.

“HAHAHA! Where’s your imposing speech bare bodied bandit?” Chen Yun sarcastically remarked as he belittle Bandit Leader Gu.

When Bandit Leader Gu heard his sarcastic words was infuriated and he stopped attacking Chen Yun, he then jumped back distancing himself from Chen Yun by 10 meters.

“Don’t run!” Chen Yun smirked.

Chen Yun’s body suddenly flickered and appeared in front of Bandit Leader Gu as the large right-hand gauntlet come rushing towards his chest.

BANG!

Once again he experienced the feeling of being a ragdoll plowing the ground creating scratches on the ground that he even passed through the walls of the protruding grounds and was stopped by the fifth wall even his flaming body was fully extinguished. Clouds of dust appeared at the surrounding where Bandit Leader Gu passed through and his exact location.

Chen Yun was surprised by the amplification of the large gauntlets as it increases 50% of his all abilities but his surprise didn’t last long as his ability was increased the consumption of his elemental energy was 50% too!

If he stays at this state, he can only last for ten seconds!

He quickly madly dashed towards Bandit Leader Gu who was starting to stand once again; his chest was depressed from the recent impact.

Then Chen Yun appears once again, as Bandit Leader Gu was aghast and quickly channeled his elemental energy imbuing it to his two swords which were trying to block the flying gauntlet.

BANG!

The fifth wall where Bandit Leader Gu landed, a hole was placed and Bandit Leader Gu nowhere to be seen.

Bandit Leader Gu’s exact location was not inside the uneven ground but was thrown outside to the open area which was not affected by the quake. His body was now bloodied once again as he somersaulted himself.

Chen Yun was following as he was blurring towards the Bandit Leader Gu, if Bandit Leader Gu will be hit by Chen Yun’s gauntlets, death was sure awaits him.

Slurp!

A slurping sound resonated that came from one of his swords and the whole blood from Bandit Leader Gu’s body was devoured by the sword as it glows crimson red.

Draconic Rage!

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Booming sounds of eruption blowing away the approaching Chen Yun.

A scale suddenly grows from the whole body of Bandit Leader Gu.

He throws the other sword to the side and wielded the crimson glowing sword with his two hands, and then he suddenly moves and was much faster than Chen Yun!

9 seconds remaining!

Chen Yun’s state remaining time was deducted a second!

He gritted his teeth and meet Bandit Leader Head on.

Bandit Leader Gu slashed his crimson glowing sword and the same crescent slash appeared but was now crimson red clashing against Chen Yun’s direct punch.

Kkssksksksk!

Sparking lights appeared between the large gauntlets and the crimson crescent slash. Chen Yun speed was push backed then he stomped the ground holding his standing but was still dragged leaving a trail two steps back.

Shiing!

But another wave of crimson crescent slash flew towards against Chen Yun.

Bang!

Instead of sparking lights, a banging sound erupted as Chen Yun was blown away coughing out blood. He was returned to the uneven ground while Bandit Leader Gu stands and didn’t pursue Chen Yun.

Whoosh!

A black shadow exits from the uneven ground and launches an attack towards Bandit Leader Gu.

Bang!

Bandit Leader Gu easily blocked the incoming attack, but the attacker was blown back but was not because of the impact but because it used the impact in retreating backwards. Chen Yun was still coughing blood as he retreated. With no other help of the elemental energy the large gauntlets it was just like a toy against the monster in from of him.

He channeled his elemental energy while executing the Cloud Hands Art, Two Stages, and the First Stance. His body was now clouded with clouds as he covers their surroundings with Bandit Leader Gu.

3 seconds remaining!

His activation and execution of martial techniques quickly consumed the elemental energy reserves in his dantian.

“Hehehe, you think that you can hide against this fog again? With the…”

BANG!

Like on the previous time, Bandit Leader Gu was blown back as some scales was detached from his body but Chen Yun’s attack didn’t just stop there.

BANG! BANG!

Two consecutive attacks followed suit from Chen Yun blowing different parts of Bandit Leader Gu’s body removing more scales from his body.

With the amplification of the large gauntlets and the Clouded Steps increase in speed, Chen Yun suddenly turned into a slaughtering god as he punches his way chasing towards Bandit Leader Gu.

BANG!

When Bandit Leader Gu was flying Chen Yun suddenly appeared above him and holding his two hands like a large hammer and slammed down towards Bandit Leader Gu’s Chest.

BANG!

2 seconds remaining!

Bandit Leader Gu was shot towards the ground.

Whoosh!

But when Bandit Leader Gu was 10 meters away from the ground, a flicker appeared below him and Chen Yun materialized as if he was traveling through space.

BANG!

1 second remaining!

Chen Yun’s time was running out he can’t possibly kill this enemy with just this attacks. Once again Bandit Leader Gu was blown back towards the skies but suddenly Bandit Leader Gu suddenly balanced himself and curled his body.

Two protruding flesh suddenly moved from his back.

Vwoom!

Two large wing spreads open from Black Bandit Gu, making him look like a devil yet the wings was identical of a dragon’s wing.

But Chen Yun didn’t dally or scared of what was appearing on his back because his time was running out!

Stomping the ground, he flew towards Bandit Leader Gu while Bandit Leader Gu flew towards Chen Yun as he flaps his wings increasing his planning to clash against Chen Yun.

He then flew towards Bandit Leader Gu as he inclined his right hand in attacking position imbued by the rainbow elemental energy. Every time Chen Yun imbued his elemental energy towards the large gauntlet its outline was glowing rainbow colors and struck explosively towards Bandit Leader Gu.

But before they clashed, Chen Yun used the Forming Stage and created multiple weapons and flew towards Bandit Leader Gu.

When Bandit Leader Gu was a bit shock and quickly evaded from left to right but didn’t stop his descend. But because of his evasion from the illusionary weapons, Chen Yun has given a chance to imbue more elemental energy in his hands.

BANG!

When they clashed, the two opponents were blown back. Bandit Leader Gu was like a kite with its string cut rolling in the sky while Chen Yun was descending like a falling meteor towards the ground.

“Urghh, even with my lasts resort, I couldn’t kill him… why the heck… he got dragons…more” Chen Yun mumbled as his consciousness drifts away from his body.

Bang!

The onlookers which were the Black Saber Mercenary and old merchant Olaf has turned white! Clouds of dust rose on the location where Chen Yun fell.

Black Saber Mercenary has already deposed the remaining Black Earthen Bandits with the help of their leader Tu Ren making them leave the uneven ground but when they exited they only saw Chen Yun who was falling down from the skies.

“Chen Yun!” Olaf and Tu Ren worriedly shouted at the same time.

Whoosh!

Tu Ren dashed towards and waved his hands blowing all the clouds of dust revealing Chen Yun who was laid on the ground.

His body was lacerated that even his bones could be seen. When Tu Ren saw this, fury suddenly rose up from his chest then he looked up towards Bandit Leader Gu who was still at balancing his body.

Bandit Leader Gu also sustains damage from their previous attacks; his right arm was broken and was twisted. Even his elemental energy was shaken; the wings on his back have many wholes that he couldn’t help but descend to the ground.

“BANDIT…LEADER…GU!” Tu Ren angrily shouted.
