Revelation of the Way of Heaven

Chapter 201 Formidable Enemy

The man slowly emerged from the flames and carefully examined Guo Shiyi, who had rushed over. His gaze finally settled on Qin Xiaochuan holding Guo Shiyi's hand.

For some reason, Qin Xiaochuan felt as if a flame had suddenly ignited in the other person's eyes, completely different from the coldness they had shown when they first met. He wondered if it was because his earlier outburst had angered the other person.

"Boy, prepare to die!" the man roared, "Horned Wood Dragon - Capture the Dragon!" Suddenly, a wooden dragon emerged from the ground, coiled up, and opened its huge mouth to bite Qin Xiaochuan.

"Shiyi, go get reinforcements." Qin Xiaochuan shielded Guo Shiyi behind him, and after unleashing a Blazing Dance, he immediately cast a Xuanwu Shield in front of him. This time, he couldn't dodge.

"Bang!" The Blazing Dance exploded in the Wood Dragon's mouth, but it did not stop the Wood Dragon's attack.

The wooden dragon bit Qin Xiaochuan, who was holding the Xuanwu Shield, and a huge pressure came down on Qin Xiaochuan. He could only barely withstand it by desperately urging the spiritual power in the witch ring.

However, the wooden dragon's attack did not end there. As it bit Qin Xiaochuan, its giant tail swept over as well.

At this moment, Qin Xiaochuan was already overwhelmed and could only watch helplessly as a huge black shadow came toward him.

"Wooden vine barrier technique!" At the critical moment, Guo Shiyi suddenly rushed in front of Qin Xiaochuan and erected a wooden shield barrier for him.

"No!" Qin Xiaochuan was shocked. He knew how powerful the wooden dragon was. Even with the Qilin Armor and the level 8 spiritual power of the Witch Ring, he could hardly withstand it. Moreover, Guo Shiyi was not good at defense.

However, Guo Shiyi did not back down in the slightest and stood facing the overwhelming shadow head-on.

Even the man's expression changed slightly upon seeing this. He raised his hand, and the dragon head that had been biting Qin Xiaochuan suddenly turned around and rushed towards Guo Shiyi's location.

Without hesitation, Qin Xiaochuan, now free, scooped up Guo Shiyi in his arms and hid to the side.

With a loud "bang!", the dragon's head bit down on the dragon's tail, tearing half of the tail to pieces.

"Huh?" Qin Xiaochuan, who had just dodged the attack, suddenly noticed that the man opposite him seemed a little stunned.

"A good opportunity," Qin Xiaochuan thought to himself. Although it was only for a moment, Qin Xiaochuan still took the opportunity to unleash a Blazing Dance of True Fire on his opponent.

"Bang." Qin Xiaochuan's skill hit the man head-on, causing a violent explosion. In the bright flames, he saw that the man's baseball cap had been blown to pieces, half of his hair was charred, and his face looked like it had been peeled off, all wrinkled up, with a piece of skin still hanging on his face, swaying incessantly in the hot air.

Moreover, Qin Xiaochuan noticed a detail: the shape of the floating cyan spiritual energy around the other party seemed to have changed.

"What is this?" Qin Xiaochuan frowned as he looked at the other person.

"He must be wearing a disguise mask," Guo Shiyi said from the side. Qin Xiaochuan suddenly realized that he had used such products before. Come to think of it, he had felt that the other person's voice was a bit strange from the beginning, and it was very likely that it had been altered.

"Good lad, we've got a grudge now." The man covered his face with one hand and glared fiercely at Qin Xiaochuan.

"What, you still don't dare to show your true face? Is it because you're too ugly?" Qin Xiaochuan mocked. Although he said this, he couldn't understand why the other party was hiding his identity when he was clearly here to kill him. Was he afraid that the dead would reveal his identity?

"You brat deserve a beating!" the man roared, suddenly appearing in front of Qin Xiaochuan and sending him flying with a punch. Before Qin Xiaochuan could even land, the man reappeared behind him and delivered another kick in mid-air. In just a few moments, Qin Xiaochuan was suspended in the air and struck five times. Already seriously injured, Qin Xiaochuan now felt as if his entire body had been completely broken apart.

"Let him go! The Revelation of Heaven's Way - Stunning writing, thrilling plot!" Guo Shiyi shouted anxiously, while quickly forming several hand seals, instantly sending countless vines wrapping around the two people who were fighting.

The man who was beating someone suddenly stopped chasing, letting Qin Xiaochuan fly into the depths of the forest like a cannonball. He took out a disguise mask from his pocket and put it back on his face. Then he turned around and looked at Guo Shiyi. The vines that were rushing towards the man suddenly stopped when they were about to reach him. No matter how much Guo Shiyi activated her spiritual power, the vines did not react.

"Girl, let me show you the true essence of Wood Release." The man muttered a spell. If Qin Xiaochuan were here, he would definitely have noticed that the cyan spiritual energy that was originally floating on his body had changed its form again.

"Thump." Guo Shiyi seemed to hear the earth's heartbeat. Then, the ground within a radius of tens of meters suddenly bulged up, and a huge willow tree grew out of the soil. It grew bigger and bigger, and every branch of the willow tree was shimmering with a faint glow, clearly containing a huge amount of spiritual power.

"By harnessing the power of the stars and connecting with the roots of the spirit tree, it is named Willow Constellation," the man murmured, and all the willow branches immediately surged towards Guo Shiyi like a tidal wave.

"Stop!" Qin Xiaochuan, who had just rushed back from the forest, roared and charged toward the man without regard for his own safety.

The man didn't even glance at him. Just as Qin Xiaochuan rushed over, the man dodged his punch by sidestepping and then slammed a punch into his back, sending Qin Xiaochuan sprawling to the ground.

"Then it's your turn." The man stepped on Qin Xiaochuan, and a faint glow began to gather on his fist.

"Razer - Agility!" A clear shout rang out in the forest, followed by a bolt of lightning that shot towards the man. He leaped backward, easily dodging the attack.

"Who goes there, daring to cause trouble on my turf?" A woman dressed in tight-fitting sportswear emerged from the shadows of the woods, glaring at the man with murderous intent.

"Teacher Xin... Teacher Xin." Qin Xiaochuan called out softly. Indeed, the person who came was Xin Wanru, who had taught them during the day.

"Oh? Are you a disciple of the Emei Sect?" The man looked at Xin Wanru coldly.

"It seems you won't honestly reveal your identity." Xin Wanru took out a short stick from her jacket pocket, twisted it gently, and it stretched to the sides, becoming a long stick more than a meter long, with electric current constantly flashing on the stick.

"Then I'll just have to beat you until you confess." Xin Wanru rushed in front of the man and swung her stick at him. The man dodged to the side, and a bolt of electricity shot out from his face.

"Thunder Strike!" Xin Wanru shouted, and a blinding bolt of lightning was released from her short stick, instantly enveloping the man.

But the man suddenly disappeared from where he stood and reappeared behind Xin Wanru, kicking her in the back with the same hand.

Xin Wanru clearly sensed the danger and quickly formed a hand seal, "Lightning Barrier." A barrier flashing with lightning appeared behind her, and she took the opportunity to turn the short stick in her hand and thrust it backward.

Seeing this, the man repeated his old trick, disappearing behind Xin Wanru once again and reappearing on the treetop of a large tree.

"Forget it, it seems I can't get rid of you anytime soon. The trouble will only keep piling up," the man said casually. "I'll let you off this time."

"Don't talk like you can easily escape from here. How can you cause trouble on my turf without paying a price?" Xin Wanru said, pointing at the man with a short stick.

"Haha..." the man chuckled coldly, "I have no intention of arguing with you here." With that, he tossed a small ball downwards.

With a loud "bang," a dazzling white light appeared before Xin Wanru's eyes, causing her to instinctively close them. When she opened her eyes again, the man had already disappeared above the treetops, as if he had never been there at all.

"You gotta run fast," Xin Wanru said resentfully, then walked up to Qin Xiaochuan and asked condescendingly, "Are you alright, kid?"
