The God of Sky and Earth

Chapter 765: The Storm Dragon's Shadow

Just as the moment arrived, Xu Chen swiftly sidestepped and stomped his foot on the ground. A swirling white aura entwined between his hands, forming a solid handprint. A claw-shaped mark directly descended upon Su Yi's shoulder, seizing him in its grasp.

This claw mark was incredibly peculiar. Within the undulating white aura, it looked like a hazy cloud of mist, as if the claw mark was born from the clouds, evoking a sensation resembling that of a dragon's claw. It exuded an immense pressure, unlike anything ordinary, its aura causing an inexplicable tremor in one's soul.

As the claw mark reached out, Su Yi felt a wave of surprise. In that moment, he swiftly executed the Hundred Transformations Step to perfection, taking advantage of the opportunity to step away from the dragon-like claw mark, thus breaking free from its grasp.

The claw mark had never landed on Su Yi's shoulder as he skillfully evaded it. However, a sharp gust of wind grazed past his neck, causing a prickling sensation on his skin. A few strands of his hair were mercilessly severed, faintly revealing a trace of bloodstains on his neck.

Upon witnessing Su Yi evade his attack, Xu Chen grew even more astonished.

"My Dragon Cloud Hand is not easy to hide!"

Xu Chen spoke, his movements mysterious and inexplicable. His voice seemed to whisper in Su Yi's ear as he once again closed in, his claw mark transforming. With a flick of his wrist, the white mist trembled, resembling the swirling claws of a dragon as they directly reached for Su Yi's throat.

"Is it so? But I really don't plan to hide!"

Although Su Yi was amazed, at this moment, even though there were only two moves, he increasingly realized the terrifying power of Xu Chen before him. The true fighting spirit within his heart was also ignited. With a swing of his arm, a fist enveloped in a crimson glow of vitality directly clashed against that claw mark.

The two collided, a muffled sound resonating. In an instant, a dazzling aura of vitality and undulating energy waves burst forth. A gust of wind swept through like a raging storm, and the two young figures each retreated, separating from each other with just one touch.

Both of them staggered back simultaneously, lifting their eyes to meet each other's gaze. Their eyes locked, revealing a mixture of astonishment in their expressions.

Su Yi couldn't contain his astonishment. Xu Chen, who had a handsome appearance that could move even men, seemed delicate, but his strength was unexpectedly powerful, almost deviant. It was surprising that Su Yi hadn't gained any advantage against him.

And compared to Su Yi, Xu Chen's astonishment in his heart at this moment far surpassed Su Yi's.

Their eyes met, and both of them fell silent.

At this moment, both of them understood in their hearts. At the beginning, although they didn't underestimate each other, they didn't truly regard their opponent with importance.

And now, both of them understood deep down that the challenge they were facing at this moment was a true formidable rival!

The two figures stood facing each other from a distance. The atmosphere around them fluctuated and sent tremors in all directions, creating a sense of tense unease.

"Come on!"

At that moment, it seemed as if they shared a certain understanding. They swiftly darted forward in unison, their silhouettes leaving behind a trail of afterimages. They transformed into streaks of light, colliding with astonishment.

Two figures intertwined, the sound of breaking wind reverberated, carrying a powerful gust and unleashing bursts of elemental energy. A muffled explosion erupted amidst the collision of elemental forces.

The two of them kept clashing, their figures constantly shifting and unpredictable. They moved with incredible speed, so fast that their peers could only catch glimpses of blurry shadows.

All around, sand and stones flew, shattering as they exploded. The strong wind whipped up clouds of dust, and the sound of rumbling echoed continuously.

Two young people were enveloped in radiant energy, surrounded by ethereal auras. Energy surged from their hands as they swiftly darted and clashed with each other.

With a deafening collision, energy surged as the two figures were forcefully pushed back in opposite directions.

Su Yi's feet skimmed the ground as he took a few steps to steady himself, finally coming to a halt. His disheveled hair added to his determined appearance, and his gaze became even more intense, filled with a strong sense of fighting spirit.

Throughout the confrontation, Su Yi refrained from using his full power. He hadn't even employed the techniques of the Supreme Chaotic Yuan Technique. However, he exerted nearly all of his inherent strength, yet astonishingly, he gained no advantage. Su Yi couldn't help but feel shocked. The young man before him appeared to be only a few years younger, yet he still had to surpass Ouyang Jinwei, even on the Sacred Mountain.

Even Su Yi could sense that, up until this point, Xu Chen, just like himself, probably hadn't used his full power.

"I never expected you to be even stronger than I imagined. You truly surprise me! The Central Region is indeed a gathering place for hidden talents!"

Xu Chen came to a halt, unable to gain any advantage. He steadied himself and fixed his gaze on Su Yi. In that moment, he was completely moved. The sight of Yi Su from the Overlord Sect was even more formidable than he had known before.

"Boom!"

As the words fell, Xu Chen's handsome face tightened noticeably. Energy surged within him, his palm forming intricate hand seals. A storm of white energy burst forth, causing a fierce wind to howl and gusts of powerful energy to swirl around.

The scene was truly astonishing. A terrifying storm swept across the land, and Xu Chen's figure seemed to defy gravity as he ascended into the air, appearing at the very center of the tempest.

"Be careful, from now on I won't hold back!"

Xu Chen looked down at Su Yi, towering above him. The surrounding storm surged, causing the air to repeatedly emit a whistling sound.

"The Dragon of the Storm!"

Xu Chen made a move once again. The terrifying storm swept in, transforming into a faintly visible phantom of a snake dragon within the turbulence. Faint echoes of dragon roars filled the air, carrying an intense pressure and causing the air to tremble violently. It charged directly towards Su Yi with tremendous force.

"Ha ha ha..."

With such force, the land cracked along its path, causing earthquakes and tremendous shockwaves that shook everything around.

At that very moment, Su Yi's eyes quietly shimmered with swirling light, gleaming and vibrant. A dreadful aura filled the ancient atmosphere, as if it possessed the power to suppress all directions and spread outward.

"Scarlet Ancient Seal!"

In the next moment, a low growl escaped from Su Yi's heart, as a fierce surge of elemental energy burst forth. A blazing aura began to whirl atop his palm, accompanied by the roaring sound akin to crashing waves. It swiftly converged, gathering like countless flames into a small sea of fire.

The aura of the handprint was scorchingly hot and terrifying, incinerating the air, and carrying a sense of ancient pressure that swept across.

In an instant, the two collided, fiercely coming into contact.

"Splash..."

All around, brilliant bursts of energy erupted, enveloping everything. An ominous aura swept in all directions as the ground continuously trembled and cracked from the powerful impact.

"Cluck cluck..."

Cracks began to form on the ground like a spider's web, spreading out from the surface. The booming sound echoed continuously as the collisions took place.

"Ouch..."

A dragon roared, causing chaos in the vast expanse.

An astonishing commotion lasted for a few breaths' time before finally settling down.

"Stomp, stomp!"

As the dust settled, the two figures stumbled backward in a hurry, retreating several steps. With each step, the ground crumbled and sank, turning the scattered rocks into powder.

Xu Chen and Su Yi's faces turned pale, their eyes fixed on each other, silently pulsating.

The surroundings gradually calmed down completely, while the aura around the two of them surged. Unknowingly, the air became tense, reaching a critical point.

"I underestimated you, it seems that it's not the time to determine the winner. I feel that if I want to defeat you, I will need to pay a significant price. So, let's save this battle for tomorrow!"

After a moment of silence, Xu Chen suddenly looked towards a distant direction, then said to Su Yi. As soon as the words were spoken, he moved in his white attire and actually left directly.

Watching Xu Chen's departing figure, Su Yi's eyes flickered, and he also turned his head to look in the same distant direction. Afterward, his figure swiftly flew away.

As Su Yi and Xu Chen disappeared, not long after, several figures emerged from a distance. They were all people who had been alarmed by the tremendous commotion.

"There have been strong ones who have fought, with very strong power, likely among the most elite ones."

Someone looked around at the wreckage, feeling the lingering aura of devastation with a sense of awe. With their power, they knew they couldn't have caused all of this.
