Chapter 450: Battle for a Foothold!

Unlike Xin Zhen who believed in Xiao Feng, the four friends of Meizhuang only believed in realm.

Huang Zhonggong waved his hand and asked the other three to retreat to his side, and whispered: "Third brother, your chessboard will be thousands of miles away in an instant. If something goes wrong, you must teleport the young master out immediately."

Heibaizi nodded immediately and whispered, "Don't worry, big brother, I will be ready."

Huang Zhonggong nodded and said, "Second brother, third brother, you must stop Ao Sheng at any time to protect Master Xiao's life. After stopping him, you must immediately take Master Xiao away."

Dan Qingsheng raised his eyebrows and asked, "Brother, what about you?"

Huang Zhong said: "We need someone to stay here to cover the rear..."

The other three were very anxious. Tu Bi Weng said in a deep voice: "Brother, this won't work..."

The other two were about to speak, but Huang Zhonggong stopped them by waving his hand: "There is no time to say too much. Let's just put it this way. Although I am not a match for Ao Sheng, I am still confident that I can get away."

The other three looked at Huang Zhonggong with great concern.

Although Xin Zhen in front was watching the battle in the sky, he heard the words of the four friends from Mei Zhuang clearly. He smiled helplessly but did not stop them. However, he understood Ao Sheng's strength.

In the view of Huang Zhonggong and his four companions, even if their side of five people and one dragon joined forces to besiege Ao Sheng, there was no possibility of victory. Oh, no, it had come to the point where they needed to escape. They thought that even if their side of six people attacked together, they would not be able to defeat Ao Sheng.

At this time, Xin Zhen thought of a question. Ao Sheng was so powerful, but in the eyes of Huang Zhonggong and others, being able to escape from the hands of Yaoguang Zhenren was already enough to boast about. So how powerful was Yaoguang Zhenren?
Information from all sides says that Mount Laoshan has actually been in decline for nearly a hundred years, but Yaoguang Zhenren is so powerful, how can Mount Laoshan be considered in decline?
However, Xin Zhen was a very smart man. He immediately thought of the Huashan Sect in The Smiling, Proud Wanderer. Although Yue Buqun and his wife were not weak, and there was also a reclusive Feng Qingyang, the overall strength of the Huashan Sect had indeed declined compared to its peak. Perhaps the Laoshan Sect was in the same situation.

Although there is a very powerful person in the sect, there is no outstanding disciple among the disciples, and the population is very small. Therefore, compared with its peak period, it is naturally in decline. Compared with other major inheritances, it is also not as strong. But it is not necessarily true that everyone can bully it.

While Xin Zhen and the others were having different thoughts, the battle over Taihu Lake had already begun.

The battle between the two real dragons plunged the entire Taihu Lake into a violent storm. The day turned dark as if it were dusk, and the wind blew up huge waves. Taihu Lake was like a storm in the ocean, with huge waves as high as more than ten meters.

Above the sky, dark clouds were almost piled up into a solid entity. Two golden dragons were fighting in the dark clouds. With a wave of their claws and a flick of their tails, the dark clouds were shattered and turned into heavy rain pouring down from the sky. Then, a large amount of water vapor rose into the air and condensed into dark clouds.

Ao Sheng was indeed extremely powerful. His body was huge, but his speed was faster than lightning. His dragon body bent and bounced, and turned into yellow lightning and arrived at Xiao Feng's side. Then his dragon claws stretched out like lightning and grabbed Xiao Feng's neck. If he could grab it firmly, Xiao Feng would die on the spot.

Xiao Feng snorted coldly.

"Or leap into the abyss!"

Ao Sheng confidently grabbed Xiao Feng with his claws, intending to catch him and humiliate him severely, but he found that his claws missed and Xiao Feng had already disappeared. Suddenly, a loud shout came from above: "Flying Dragon in the Sky!"

Ao Sheng was shocked and had no time to look. He immediately bent and bounced his body, trying to dodge like lightning, but he felt a fierce claw hit his neck. He immediately fell like a meteor and smashed into the Taihu Lake!

"Ah? This is it?"

The four friends from Meizhuang were also horrified. They saw clearly that Ao Sheng had gained the upper hand in an instant. Seeing that Ao Sheng was about to capture Xiao Feng, the four of them were already preparing to escape, but the situation changed in an instant. Not only did Xiao Feng dodge Ao Sheng's sure-win move, but he was hit by the same move by Xiao Feng instead.

Although Xin Zhen had confidence in Xiao Feng, he was also quite shocked at this moment. In his previous life, he and Xiao Feng had been friends for decades and they had tried their hand at each other countless times. Of course he could tell that Xiao Feng's two moves were the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms, but the feeling was very different from when it was used in human form.

But this difference is an essential transformation. When used by a human body, it is nothing more than palm techniques, but when used by a dragon body, it is a combination of body techniques, palm techniques, claw techniques, and even the dragon head and tail can play a role.

Perhaps, this is the true appearance of the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms?

Could this be the dragon clan's unique skill?

Ao Sheng fell into Taihu Lake, causing a huge wave. It looked very miserable, but Xin Zhen knew that Ao Sheng was not so easy to defeat.

Sure enough, the next moment Ao Sheng flew up into the air from Taihu Lake in anger. This time he was really merciless. He opened his mouth and spit out a large amount of water mist. The water mist swept towards Xiao Feng. It touched the dark clouds on the way and instantly turned into hailstones that fell down.

Breath!

Half of the dark clouds turned into ice blocks several meters or even dozens of meters in size and fell down. The Taihu Lake was like being washed by missiles, and water columns dozens of feet high shot up into the sky. Fortunately, the Taihu Lake was large enough not to bring disaster to the surrounding provinces.

The battle between the two roads attracted the attention of powerful people around Taihu Lake, but no one came out to stop it.

This makes sense.

No matter whether it is the internal disputes of the Dragon Clan or the fact that Ao Zhang has surrendered to Xin Zhen, the boss of Longhu Mountain in the east of Jiangnan, these are not things that ordinary forces can get involved in. Even those who can afford to provoke them will not interfere. Isn't it nice to watch the fight between tigers from afar?

As far as Xin Zhen could sense, there were dozens of powerful beings spying nearby. Xin Zhen was very familiar with the area around Taihu Lake. Based on the locations, he could guess that half of the powerful beings were from big families in the east route of Jiangnan, and the other half were probably powerful beings from those great inheritances, lurking nearby and plotting against the east route of Jiangnan.

Xin Zhen was not embarrassed or annoyed by being spied on. Instead, he was quite happy. Today's battle was for Gong Muzhi to gain a foothold in the East Road of Jiangnan. If they could defeat Ao Sheng today, they would become a force in the East Road of Jiangnan. Even if other major forces were hostile, they would have to treat them differently, instead of being invisible as before.

However, the prerequisite is that we must win today!

Xin Zhen looked towards the sky above Taihu Lake and saw Ao Sheng's breath covering half the sky. Xiao Feng was flying in the dark clouds and was about to be caught up by the dragon's breath.

The powerful people around who were watching shook their heads, thinking that skills were no match for hard power. After all, Longhu Mountain could not cause any big waves on Taihu Lake unless the old Heavenly Master came in person. Huang Zhonggong said loudly, "Sir, shall we come together?"

Xin Zhen shook his head and said, "No need. Brother Xiao is just familiarizing himself with the dragon clan's fighting style. He will have a countermeasure soon."

Before he finished speaking, two tornadoes quickly formed over Taihu Lake. They were so large that they could be seen from thousands of miles away. The tornadoes quickly touched the surface of the lake, like two huge pumps, pumping the lake water into the sky.

Xin Zhen laughed when he saw this and said, "Two dragons are fetching water. Ao Sheng's dragon breath is extremely cold, so we can use it to make ice. I don't know how much dragon breath he has. Let's see if we can turn all the water in Taihu Lake into ice?"

I saw the tornado sucking water towards the dragon's breath, and suddenly countless large pieces of ice fell from the sky, but the tornado continued to grow, sucking the lake water up into the sky to meet the dragon's breath.

The dark clouds in the sky spread rapidly again, covering the entire sky above Taihu Lake, which meant that the two sides had regained a balance.

The powerful people who were watching from the surroundings immediately focused their attention.

Xin Zhen was also concentrating, he didn't know how long Xiao Feng could maintain the Double Dragons Fetching Water. After all, to maintain such a huge tornado, a huge amount of magic power was required. In terms of magic power, Ao Sheng was much stronger after all.

However, before Xin Zhen could ask, Xiao Feng had another plan. A golden light flashed in the dark clouds, and Xiao Feng rushed towards Ao Sheng like lightning.

"This is a ram touching the fence!" It is a close combat move from the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms.

Ao Sheng was still opening his mouth and trying hard to exhale. He naturally didn't believe that Xiao Feng's magic power could surpass his own, so he just needed to keep going. Xiao Feng wouldn't be able to resist for long, and then he could do whatever he wanted to him.

But he didn't expect that Xiao Feng could actually maintain the tornado and attack at the same time. He was caught off guard and was hit hard on the jaw by Xiao Feng's ram-touching move. He turned over a dozen times in the air. His mind was not very clear to begin with, and this time he was even more dizzy.

Xiao Feng was extremely experienced in combat, his series of combos were like a violent storm, [Walking on Frost and Ice], [Dense Clouds but No Rain], [Dragon Swings its Tail], [Shock for Hundreds of Miles]!
Ao Sheng was like a wooden stake, being knocked dizzy by Xiao Feng in the air. He couldn't even move his hands and could only use his body to bear the blow.

However, although Ao Sheng's body is extremely strong, Xiao Feng has inherited Ao Zhang's dragon body after all. Even if there are some differences, they are not fundamentally different.

The key lies in the bonus that the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms brings to the dragon's body. It's not just the clever moves, but it also provides a tenfold bonus in terms of unleashing the dragon's body's combat power.

Therefore, Xiao Feng's Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms really caused great harm to Ao Sheng. In the air, dragon scales were blown everywhere, skin and flesh were torn, and dragon blood spilled from the sky. It was really horrible to watch.

Ao Sheng was in a daze, but his heart was already filled with shock and fear. He risked taking another hit from Xiao Feng, and then took advantage of the hit to quickly escape. Xiao Feng wanted to chase him, but Ao Sheng's cultivation was much higher, and he was determined to escape, so Xiao Feng really couldn't do anything to him. In just a moment, Ao Sheng pulled Xiao Feng down and escaped without a trace.

The powerful people who were watching from the surroundings were shocked. They really didn't expect that Ao Zhang could actually defeat Ao Sheng. Everyone knew that Ao Zhang and Ao Sheng were not opponents of the same level at all, but now it seemed that Ao Zhang was hiding his abilities before?
No, this true identity is very difficult to fake. Ao Zhang's dragon body is much smaller than Ao Sheng's. Size equals combat power, and this cannot be hidden from others.

That is to say, Ao Zhang used other means to win.

Someone recalled the battle between the two dragons and immediately realized: Ao Zhang's fighting style is different from that of ordinary dragons!

The dragon clan's fighting style is actually quite simple. They either use their bodies or dragon magic, and most of them rely on force to overwhelm others. But although Ao Zhang's fighting style also mainly uses his body, his use of his body is extremely clever and delicate, and... very domineering!

This was a fighting method of the dragon clan that had never been seen before. Ao Zhang relied on it to defeat Ao Sheng, who was much stronger than himself. This was amazing.

Some powerful people thought more deeply that if the dragon clan could obtain this set of skills, then the strength of the dragon clan would be greatly improved!
Now that the Hua Dynasty has been destroyed, the Dragon Clan has become extremely powerful in the human world. If the Dragon Clan is allowed to reach another level, wouldn't they be able to ascend to heaven?
No, we can’t let the dragon clan obtain this technique!
Xiao Feng failed to chase Ao Sheng, so he flew back. Just as he was about to press the cloud to land, suddenly a big bell came towards him. Xiao Feng was startled and immediately turned around to dodge. The big bell hummed loudly, and Xiao Feng suddenly felt his head heavy. He could not control his body and fell straight into Taihu Lake!
At the same time, several rainbow lights approached rapidly from the horizon and attacked Xiao Feng.

Xin Zhen immediately shouted, "Where did this despicable villain come from? How dare he launch a sneak attack!"

Xin Zhen transformed into a beam of light and blocked Xiao Feng's way. Several rays of rainbow light attacked Xin Zhen. Xin Zhen shouted, "Endless Falling Trees!"

Spots of clear light sprinkled on the rainbow lights. A few cold snorts came from the rainbow lights, and they attacked the clear light.

I saw the rainbow light and the clear light collide with each other, and I heard a few muffled sounds. Several rainbow lights stopped and looked at Xin Zhen in surprise and doubt.

At this time, several rainbow lights revealed human figures, who were masked men with different clothes standing in different directions. They probably did not belong to the same force.

Xiao Feng had regained his consciousness by now. He turned over in the air and flew up to Xin Zhen's side. With a cold look in his eyes, he looked at the masked men and said in a deep voice, "Who is this despicable villain who actually launched a sneak attack?"

The masked men looked at each other, then turned into rainbow lights and quickly fled.

If the attack fails, he will withdraw.

Xiao Feng wanted to chase them, but was stopped by Xin Zhen, who said, "Brother Xiao, these are just villains who are trying to take advantage of you. Let them go."

Xiao Feng frowned and said, "Are these the people with the great inheritance?"

Xin Zhen smiled and said, "Yes, there should be people from aristocratic families who have plots against the Jiangnan East Road. They dare not show up in public, but do such despicable things. There is no need to worry."

Xiao Feng shook his head and said, "There are always rats like this. Under the general trend, they are nothing but ants."

The two brothers smiled at each other. In their previous lives, when they were traveling across the Central Plains and dealing with Jin Xia, they had seen many rats like this. These rats thought they could accomplish things in this way, but they had lost the sense of being upright and honest, so they were indeed not worth worrying about.

After today's battle, they have already taken root in Jiangnan East Road!
