X-Dragon Era-Chapter 467 - s 340-342 Frenzy of Diamonds_4
From a distance, the pale blue treasure-like flow, mixed with millions of diamond-like spots of light, swept across like ripples. Wherever it passed, it was so destructively powerful that it reached an astonishing extreme.
The pale blue flow seemed slow, but it instantly covered ten thousand meters in radius, enveloping the entire area thoroughly. Within the flow, as diamonds ground against each other, everything turned to dust, not even a fragment the size of a fingernail could be found.
Under the impact of the blue flow, Yi Luo Xiang, Yan Qingying, and the Giant Dragon under Ming Xuan's command had no ability to resist. They turned to ash in an instant. In fact... it wasn't that Yi Luo Xiang and the others lacked direction, but... the moment the dragon appeared, their dragons were suppressed by an overpowering force, all their abilities sealed off, completely unresponsive to commands.
However, although the Giant Dragon died, Yi Luo Xiang, Yan Qingying, and Ming Xuan remained unharmed. It wasn't that the adversary lacked the ability to kill them, but rather he intentionally refrained from doing so, after all... Xin Yun's whereabouts still had to be extracted from them, and most importantly, Wang Sheng still wanted to extract several magical artifacts from them.
Looking around, in mid-air, floated three pale blue, ten-meter in diameter giant spheres of water, within which Yi Luo Xiang, Yan Qingying, and Ming Xuan were trapped. Although they were constantly struggling to break free, they couldn't move even slightly.
The water spheres appeared to be water, but were incredibly viscous. Yi Luo Xiang and the others were like flies stuck on a strong adhesive mousetrap, no matter how they struggled, they remained stuck in place. Most terrifying of all, the spheres even isolated energy, so the three could only rely on their physical strength to struggle.
After struggling for a while, the three of them calmed down and stopped. They were all intelligent people and knew that struggling was futile; since that was the case, there was no point in doing so.
Shocked, watching Wang Sheng who was commanding the fish-dragon, the three of them could not help but be deeply frightened. What kind of power was this! In his presence, the three of them were like frail infants, completely powerless to resist. There was no question of harming the opponent, let alone initiating an attack. Could it be... a Diamond-level master!

That's right, the three quickly guessed the reality of the situation, only... they had not anticipated that the continuous attacks they had just experienced were not even considered combat skills. First was the Diamond coercion, which sealed the dragons' abilities, followed by the Diamond Impact, shattering everything within ten thousand meters, and finally, the Diamond Imprisonment, trapping the three inside. It seemed like an ability, but it was actually just a standardized utilization of power.
It could be said that Wang Sheng had barely exerted half his strength; with breath-like ease, he made a few casual swipes, and everything was OK. Although there is only one star difference between the Diamond and Amethyst level, the change was like that from gunpowder to uranium-235. How can gunpowder compare with nuclear weapons?
Carefully storing the three magical artifacts into his bag, Wang Sheng then raised his head and said in a deep voice, "Will you hand over the magical artifacts yourselves, or shall I personally search for them? And... where is that fellow named Xin Yun?"
Hearing Wang Sheng's words, the three trapped in the water sphere glanced at each other. Although the opponent had only spoken a single sentence, the message it conveyed was too much.
All along, Xin Yun had been low-profile, hardly incurring any enemies. The real trouble came from Wang Kui alone, and furthermore... although the other party came for the magical artifacts, he specifically mentioned Xin Yun. It was clear he was not here for the Red Gourd but for Xin Yun, indicating this person must be connected with Wang Kui.
During their contemplation, the three exchanged stealthy glances and then nodded simultaneously. The next moment... Three beams of golden light shone from their bodies, turning into three golden bridges that broke through the giant water spheres.
Walking serenely as if they were traveling by carriage, the three emerged from the sphere of water, yet remained standing on the golden bridge, casting cold gazes at Wang Sheng on the opposite side. While the water sphere was strong, the golden bridge formed by the Tai Chi Diagram was even mightier, capable of stabilizing earth, water, fire, and wind. If they wished to leave, no one could keep them there!
To know, the principle within the Tai Chi Diagram was space. Say nothing of this mere water sphere, even if it were the Immortal Slaying Sword Formation laid out by the Leader of Tongtian back in the day, Laozi had still entered it relying on the Tai Chi Diagram and subsequently left unscathed. If even the Immortal Slaying Sword Formation couldn't restrain it, then what in the world could?
There is none, absolutely none... Laozi practices non-action, does not favor conflict, and thus has two great treasures: one for defense and one for movement. No one can shake him, and when he wishes to leave, no one can detain him. The only combat weapon he needs is that Supreme Bamboo Cane, and it has always been more than enough.
The Tai Chi Diagram can stabilize earth, water, fire, and wind. Once the Tai Chi Diagram emerges, within the range enshrouded by the golden bridge, all earth, water, fire, and wind come to a halt. As a result... all energy attacks will subside, and then, by utilizing the principle of spatial folding, one can appear anywhere at any moment. However..., the Tai Chi Diagram can only defend against energy attacks; it cannot stabilize physical attacks. That's why Laozi needs the physical protection of the Treasure Pagoda, the Merit Supreme Treasure!
Of course, the Tai Chi Diagram is currently only repaired to the second layer, and the range it covers is still quite small, merely around ten meters or so. The golden bridge formed can't fold space indefinitely either. The longer the distance of space that needs folding, the greater the folding force required. Given the current situation, the distance that can be folded is a hundred thousand and eight thousand miles.
This Tai Chi Diagram, every member of the Axe Gang has one, and Yi Luo Xiang, in her hands, has two of them. One is used against enemies, and the other for self-defense. The one for self-defense is the genuine article cultivated by Yi Luo Xiang. As for the one thrown out, it's merely a copy.
Seeing the three once again bring out a Tai Chi Diagram identical to the one in his own hands, Wang Sheng's eyes sparkled even more, and moreover... with this little guy, they could actually pass through his Diamond Impact freely. This little thing was truly formidable, quite admirable indeed!
Watching Wang Sheng's excited demeanor, Yi Luo Xiang and her companions let out a helpless sigh. It looked like today's incident couldn't be resolved. Although the golden bridge could stabilize earth, water, fire, and wind, everything had its limits. With the Tai Chi Diagram restored only to the second layer, it couldn't stabilize too much of the earth, water, fire, and wind.
Once Wang Sheng initiated an attack, a part of the energy would be stabilized by the golden bridge, but once it surpassed the bridge's limit, the excess energy would still strike them. Even if the three were a hundred times stronger, they would unquestionably be pulverized to dust.
However, the strength of the Tai Chi Diagram lies in the fact that if they can't win, they can still run. As long as they stand on the golden bridge, with but a thought, they can instantly cross space and appear anywhere within a hundred thousand and eight thousand miles, essentially invincible.
With this confidence, Yi Luo Xiang calmly looked at Wang Sheng and said, "You were sent by Wang Kui, weren't you? What is your relation to him?"
Upon hearing Yi Luo Xiang's question, Wang Sheng was momentarily stunned, then responded, "What a clever girl. You two are indeed quite exceptional beauties, no wonder my nephew has his sights on you. Well then... if you two hand over the treasures and Xin Yun, and agree to serve my nephew, I might spare your lives!"
"Hmph!" Just as Wang Sheng's words fell, a cold snort sounded out from the ruins. The next moment... a deep voice echoed in the night sky: "Daring to covet my woman, did you ask for my permission?"
