What he used was Shield Block Rebound, a very simple and plain technique, but after being added to Spiritual Highland, its might wasn’t that easy to resist.

Long Haochen only felt as if this “mountain” that he tried to pierce suddenly crumbled, flashing with golden light, as a terrible oppressive force immediately attacked and repelled him.

Nonetheless, it wasn’t as if Long Haochen’s sword strike had no use at all. At least he tore apart the imposing manner of its counterpart, completely annihilating it when that tall knight was in the midst of raising it to the peak. This could be said to be how he took advantage of his own failure.

The golden light went on full swing from his back, and at the same time Long Haochen’s body was sent flying, his four wings already unfurled on his back, and the two on the left side abruptly flapped, causing his body to make a horizontal turn in the air.

The instant his body made a flip, the huge hammer swept past his former position. It didn’t smash onto the ground, yet produced a thundering blast, the edge of which reached Long Haochen, headed for his side. So strong! Long Haochen was extremely shocked. He was full of confidence regarding his own ability, but only now did he understand how strong a Gold Essence Foundation Knight was.

However, he obviously wouldn’t let this discourage him. Leaning backwards immediately, his body forcibly came to a stop in midair, as he did a backflip. This changed his orientation in the air forcibly.

The immense hammer went up, once again hitting the air. That instant, the tall knight was unexpectedly unable to grasp Long Haochen’s trajectories from his movements, making him unable to lock onto Long Haochen.

But this knight indeed had an imposing strength. While the hammer missed its target, warped ripples spread out from it. This was an area-targeted attack that Long Haochen wouldn’t be able to evade.

That’s…

Elemental Obliterating Ring!

This was a technique that Long Haochen had seen before. In the range of Elemental Obliterating Ring, all the elements would disappear totally. Even a place very abundant with intense light essence would be affected. And this ring had Long Haochen right in its middle, while not affecting the tall knight.

The sudden disappearance of the surrounding light essence caused Long Haochen to stop still for a moment, and right that instant, the immense hammer swept at him.

The back of this hammer was devoid of a chain, but instead was completely controlled through the user’s spiritual energy. And the intensity of that spiritual energy reached at least the peak of the eighth step.

Having always encountered powerful enemies, the more Long Haochen was pressured, the more his latent capabilities came out. In such a disadvantageous situation, he didn’t panic in the slightest; holding the Aria of the Goddess of Light in his two hands, he let the four wings on his back spread out. A torrential sword intent rushed forth.

Asura Strike! The instant Long Haochen’s sword intent burst forth, a bizarre white glow spread out from his body, giving birth to a majestic scene. The elemental fluctuations repelled in the distorted area formed by Elemental Obliterating Ring were pulled back by the white light, annihilating the effects of the latter ability. And the next instant, Long Haochen’s Aria of the Goddess of Light clashed against that hammer.

An ear-piercing sound resounded through the whole training ground, and the massive backlash forced Long Haochen back. Flapping the four wings on his back, he rapidly increased the distance separating him to the opponent. He understood very clearly that even if that tall knight was able to control his hammer, its range was limited. The further they are, the weaker his control will be.

As expected, the hammer returned to the knight’s hands and didn’t keep chasing after Long Haochen, its wielder exclaimed in admiration, “Not bad, instantly using an Elemental Summon of the seventh step to annihilate my Elemental Obliterating Ring. It’s no wonder that you dared challenge a Gold Essence Foundation Knight. So you indeed had some trump cards up your sleeve.”

Long Haochen didn’t respond, single-mindedly watching this tall knight. One could see that the golden flames surrounding his body turned entirely white due to the previous use of Elemental Summon. Leaping up fiercely, it collected a terrifyingly pure light essence in the area with him as center. And on his back, the Aria of the Goddess of Light was indiscernibly floating.

Although the tall knight’s spiritual energy surpassed Long Haochen’s by far, at this time his absorption speed of the light essence was below Long Haochen. This was an advantage of being the light god’s Chosen One, who would be forever matchless in affinity with light, unless a starlight divine beast reappears.

Long Haochen didn’t let the white flames surrounding him keep spreading upwards, and let a light glow onto his left hand.

That radiance was both gold and blue colored. At the same time it appeared, a golden figure came out. It was no one else but Yating.

Yating was Long Haochen’s fused spiritual stove, and naturally could be classified as a part of his strength. And the second figure that appeared in his hand was naturally his heavy sword Blue Rain, Hibiscus of Light.

Blue Rain, Hibiscus of Light gave off an extremely illusory feeling, and faint dragon cries could be heard. It was as if Long Haochen wasn’t gripping a sword, but two immense dragons’ souls.

HIs two swords wielded on either side, Long Haochen entered a mystical state. His gaze looked peaceful, and it appeared that in his eyes nothing around him existed. All his focus was gathered onto that tall knight.

The tall knight stopped talking. His imposing manner became heavy, and he visibly sensed the sudden increase of Long Haochen’s strength. A faint threat was growing in him, as he was accumulating sword intent, leaving the knight with no choice but to deal with him cautiously.

Yating chanted an incantation melodiously, holding the staff in her hand high, and a bizarre golden light appeared on Long Haochen. This wasn’t Brilliant World, but a kind of link, a complete link with Long Haochen himself.

The spiritual wings on Long Haochen’s back vanished, and his entire upper body leaned forward, the white flames surrounding him turning into an ascending fog.

Storing Power.

The tall knight advanced again in large strides, but this time, his pace was visibly a lot more rushed. Every step he took covered a small distance, but at every step, his imposing manner increased gradually. A pure gold fog of light simultaneously arose above him, and with each step he took, this fog seemed to gain in intensity.

Could this be… Storing Power while moving?

It was the first time Long Haochen saw this kind of Storing Power. Although he didn’t know how this knight accomplished that, he was certain that the amplification from the knight’s method of Storing Power was even greater than his own motionless Storing Power.

Originally, he wanted to incite the enemy to take the initiative, but now he was left with no choice but to seize the initiative to attack.

Lightspeed Flash reappeared, propelling Long Haochen in the air in a split second. This time he didn’t charge straight at the counterpart, but his body flew upwards with an inclined posture. In a flash of golden light, he carried a lightning-like brilliance. Reaching the top of the training field, he immediately turned into a flash of light once again, achieving a perfect turn downwards.

A thick sword intent mixed itself with a dragon cry, and fell from the sky.

Long Haochen currently gave that tall knight the impression of being caught in a shower of rain and thunder.

The shower of rain was coming from Blue Rain, Hibiscus of Light, and the thunder was naturally exuding from the Aria of the Goddess of Light.

A flawless invasion, instant destruction using his sword intent. Long Haochen’s two swords were lit with an abnormal, gaudy light.

It was also Spiritual Highland. Although Long Haochen couldn’t possibly be in perfect control of Spiritual Highland like this tall knight, utilizing Spiritual Highland with his two swords was still perfectly within his grasp.

Ding!

Tshhhhhhhh

A series of odd sounds could be heard resounding in the training field. The tall knight once again lifted up his tower shield, entirely clad in pure golden energy. This pure golden energy wasn’t a mere attachment of spiritual energy, but a kind of liquid flowing onto the surface of his shield. And Long Haochen’s attack passed through this liquid layer upon layer.

The terrible sword intent passed through, as the area in between the two of them was lacerated. One could see that countless black cracks were appearing in the sky, producing a very powerful exploding force. Causing blasts of spiritual energy, it was violent enough to cause the whole training ground to shake profusely.

But no matter how strong Long Haochen’s attack power was, nor how sharp his sword intent was, it was not enough to shake this tower shield. He didn’t even know what technique that tall knight was making use of, because the techniques of his opponent were completely assimilated inside his shield, and weren’t displayed to the eye.

Bang! All the attacks seemed to meet together in the end, producing an incomparable explosion. Long Haochen’s body was shot back once again, and this time, the pressure was much higher than the previous time. The Glorious Holy Armor let out a series of moans, showing indications of being close to collapse from the force of that massive shock of spiritual energy.

The clash between two powerhouses of the eighth step was just that terrifying. Therefore, the Alliance had a saying, that only weapons of the Legendary Tier or above were suitable to powerhouses of the eighth step, otherwise the rate of broken weapons would be too high.

But was it so simple for the tall knight to defend himself? On the surface of the tower shield, one could see that this time, he didn’t manage to completely neutralise Long Haochen’s offense. On that thick shield, at least ten traces were left. Although none of them were deep, it was a proof that his Spiritual Highland was already unable to defend this shield totally.

Not only that, but at the time Long Haochen went on the offense, the tall knight was unable to use the hammer in his other hand fully. Only by doing his utmost to use it in defense did he block Long Haochen’s attacks.
