C326 Both Sides Suffered Heavy Losses
Now Auden was desperate. Pain and anger made him forget his plans and thoughts for the time being. All he had was to do his best to eliminate the enemy in front of him. This was exactly what old patriarch wanted to see. This way, even if he couldn't defeat him... The enemy's men will also be severely injured.
This way, Atlas's future plan would be much smoother, but he had never thought of comforting himself in his plan.
Although he was at a disadvantage right now, he was not nervous at all. Because on this continent, the person who could be called the clan leader was definitely a ruthless character. Other than Qingtian and Chrysanthemum, he had never been afraid of anyone. Of course, this included Auden.
"A patriarch and a puppet that was brought up by the Great Elder. I would like to see if you live up to your name!" Auden said while waving his trident.
This had touched old patriarch's leg. As the patriarch of the dummies, he couldn't convince the masses. Adding the fact that the major powers had divided their territories, the status of the city lords of those major powers was already higher than that of the patriarch. He had done so much because he had seen the future of Atlas, so that such a thing wouldn't happen to him anymore. Now that Auden had taken the initiative to bring it up, how could he not be furious?
"Then today, I'll let you see whether this so-called patriarch of mine is worthy of his name or not." Being provoked, he had lost some of his rationality and started to use his full strength.
In an instant, the green light between the two of them won. Auden felt a trace of danger. He hurriedly withdrew his attack, but he was still caught by the corner of his eye. The side of his body seemed to have been burned by high temperature flames. It was charred black. The other half of his clothes had already disappeared.
In fact, old patriarch had never displayed his full strength in front of anyone. The reason why he fought against Tian Qingtian earlier was because he had already figured out the gap between their strength. Furthermore, he was very optimistic about this child, and he had the intention to lose to him. He didn't use his full strength, otherwise, Qingtian wouldn't have won so easily. But now, he had long held onto the notion that even if he died, he would make Auden skin him alive to fight, especially when this fellow had mentioned his injuries just now. No matter who it was, they had their own bottom line. This person had already touched their bottom line. Therefore, he, who had always been calm, couldn't help but lose his rationality.
Auden, who had just been attacked, was shocked and immediately regained his composure. He couldn't help but feel regret for his impulsive action. This time, he had forced out the potential of this guy in front of him. If he didn't pay a price, he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to pass this stage. However, seeing old patriarch's current condition, perhaps he would have to pay a price for it. Whether or not he would be able to escape unscathed was still unknown.
All along, they had thought that the previous patriarchs were merely the puppets of the elders. It was just a form of address. But now, the two clan heads he had experienced were shockingly powerful. He had no confidence in defeating this man in front of him, and the newly appointed junior patriarch was even more terrifying. With just one attack, he felt that there was an insurmountable gap between the two of them. In the future, if someone told him that the patriarchs were all dummies or didn't have the strength, Auden would smash his head into pieces without any hesitation.
In fact, the gap between him and Qingtian wasn't as big as Auden had imagined. It was just that he wanted to create an effect at that time. * Hong Long...... * Young Master Yang purposely focused all of his strength on his fist, forcing his opponent to retreat in an instant. This was also Auden. If he was called an ordinary expert... * Hong Long...... *
"Let's go all out!" He looked at his subordinates who were still fighting bitterly, as well as the soldiers behind him who were ready to attack. As the commander, Auden made a decision that he thought was right.
"Ah!" He roared and broke the tridents. After splitting it apart, it turned out to be a trident and a huge sword. Although it was similar to Chrysanthemum's method, it was a different weapon.
Old patriarch was already prepared. The two big swords formed by green light were ready to attack, waiting for Auden to attack.
With this idea in mind, Auden made his move. It was also because of his different hand combination that old patriarch was not used to at the beginning.
Because his strength was greater than his opponent's, he could often use a large sword to attack. However, the trident in his other hand did not attack for a long time. Just as he blocked old patriarch's attack, he suddenly thrust the trident forward.
"Zzz!" Although he was very careful with the attack of Auden's other hand, it was because the speed and strength of the attack was too perfect. He only subconsciously moved to dodge the attack. Three deep wounds were left on the right side of his body, from his lower abdomen to his chest.
"Eh!" He suddenly threw the big sword in his hand out, taking advantage of the moment when his opponent was dodging to quickly retreat. He forcefully pressed on his body a few times, and the blood that was flowing out quickly stopped. This was something that Qingtian had taught him when he was free. It was a special method of bleeding control in ancient times. By sealing some blood vessels and meridians, it prevented a large amount of bleeding from the injured parts of the body. This way, he wouldn't lose too much blood in future battles. This "ultimate skill" that outsiders saw shocked old patriarch. There was actually such a skill that could stop the bleeding with just a few fingers? It was simply unbelievable. It was much faster than healing magic. Wouldn't this give him a huge advantage in future battles?
Moreover, such a secret technique, Sky Bearing, was generously taught to him. This was undoubtedly an inconceivable thing to a person or a clan that had inherited this secret technique. Therefore, when he was free, old patriarch practiced with all his might. He even practiced with all his might. Sometimes you hurt yourself. Guang Qingtian had treated him many times, but that didn't stop his enthusiasm. Finally, he could easily and accurately seal some of his acupoints and stop the bleeding.
What his opponent saw was a completely different scene. old patriarch just casually poked his body a few times, and the wound that he had just caused healed miraculously? How could he fight this battle? Wasn't this guy's recovery speed a little too fast? It was precisely this mentality that caused him to lose to his opponent at the starting point.
Old patriarch also took advantage of this opportunity to rush forward. The greatsword in his hands had already disappeared and was replaced by more than a dozen throwing knives. Of course, they were all formed by his miraculous green light.
"Go!" Following his shout, a dozen or so throwing knives flew out. They seemed to have their own thoughts as they flew towards Auden from different angles.
Auden was not nervous, and immediately put his weapons together again. He suddenly spun the fork, forming an airtight wall around his body. "Bang, bang, bang..." With a few sounds, all the throwing knives hit the "wall" and were smashed into pieces.
"Humph, a petty trick. You are also showing off here." However, just as he finished his words, he suddenly realized that not only was old patriarch not worried, he even had a smile on his face. It was very strange!
Oh no, "Ah!" Before he could react, he let out a scream.
It turned out that old patriarch's move was done in two steps: the throwing knife at the beginning was just bait. After being shattered by Auden, the green light did not dissipate immediately. It immediately formed a new one around him. The smaller flying dagger went straight for his entire body. Auden, who had no reaction, was naturally hit. This time, his injuries were not light.
"Ah!" Auden let out another blood-curdling scream. The sound made everyone on the battlefield hear it - their hearts were pounding.
"No matter how you scream, it's useless. You are doomed to fail..." Before old patriarch could finish his words, Auden had already thrown out his weapon and rushed over to him at a very fast speed.
"You want to hurt me?" After saying that, he moved sideways slightly and dodged. However, before he could be proud of himself, the middle of the weapon suddenly split apart. The huge sword actually separated from the fork and fiercely chopped onto his shoulder. This strike was really too ruthless. old patriarch's entire shoulder was almost chopped off. And the tactic was exactly the same as the one he used just now.
"Bastard, bastard. You're so smart, I can't help but admire you for duplicating my tactic so quickly" As he spoke, he sealed the acupuncture points on his shoulder once again, but this time, it was too deep. Fresh blood continued to flow out.
The battle below the city could be said to have resulted in both sides suffering heavy losses.
