I Have A Divine Tree In My Heart Chapter 151 - Heavy Punch—Cannon

Chapter 151: Heavy Punch—Cannon

Lin Yao would skip the strongest and kill those behind first—this was his strategy.

However, he was not the only one who had thought of this. How could the few opposing players have forgotten this? The iron-blooded battle flag they used was not a secret technique but something pa.s.sed down by the military. It had been refined more than 100 times over the past few decades. Therefore, the shortcomings of the blood-colored battle flag had been balanced out long ago.

After brus.h.i.+ng past the das.h.i.+ng man, Lin Yao thought he had skipped a fight with a warlord. However, the moment the two brushed past each other, the battle flag behind the charging man suddenly disappeared. Instead, the blood-colored battle flag condensed behind a skinny young man in front of Lin Yao.

‘The blood-colored battle flag can be transferred!’

The scene in front of Lin Yao made him widen his eyes. Soon, something more dangerous happened to Lin Yao. After the battle flag was transferred to the skinny young man, that man flexed and flicked his 10 fingers forward.

Dropping Fire—Iron Stray Bullet!

As he flicked his 10 fingers repeatedly, beams of blood-colored aura shot toward Lin Yao, who was flying forward, like bullets.

The blessing of the blood-colored battle flag gave that person strength equivalent to a warlord. He ejected bullets more than 100 times within a short time, and the hundreds of bullet-like aura beams shot densely at the surroundings of Lin Yao’s refracted illusion. He wanted to use this range attack to defeat Lin Yao, who had refracted his body image.

“Your real body won’t be too far away from the refracted illusion. You can’t dodge this.”

As the man had expected, Lin Yao didn’t escape the attack. Eight beams of blood-colored aura hit Lin Yao, interrupting his refracted illusion and creating eight holes in his body.

“We’ve won!”

“What a shame for Student One Sword. The military’s blood-colored battle flag can be transferred at any time… Wait… T-This…”

Upon seeing Lin Yao’s body spurting blood, E Longsheng heaved a sigh of relief. He had a hunch that he had finally gotten rid of his “jinx” label, so he couldn’t wait to announce Lin Yao’s failure.

However, an abnormal scene soon took place in the arena. Despite the eight b.l.o.o.d.y holes in his body, Lin Yao didn’t stop charging forward.

Clang!

At the sound of the long sword being unsheathed, Lin Yao drew out a beam of dazzling thunderlight that looked like the whip of the thunder G.o.d and smashed it toward the opponent in front of him.

That was a martial artist, not the skinny young man das.h.i.+ng forward.

Sword gleams and thunderlight intertwined. Lin Yao was going all out and getting ready to fight the warlord.

The final outcome was that… the young martial artist had no way to defend himself and was sent flying in the air with wounds all over his body. If Lin Yao hadn’t stopped in time, he could have been cleaved into two by the sword.

“What happened? Why wasn’t the battle flag transferred to you?”

“How can you possibly still move?”

After defeating one person, the electric light transformed from Lin Yao continued to charge forward. It then stopped in the distance, and he turned his gaze around in confusion.

The skinny young man who had fired the bullets looked even more dumbfounded. He didn’t understand why Lin Yao could still stand up after being hit eight consecutive times.

That was an attack at the warlord level, so it was akin to using a pistol and shooting an ordinary person. It was already hard to endure one shot, let alone eight.

Both parties had many doubts in their hearts. As Lin Yao was in the state of thinking speed acceleration, he soon figured out what had happened.

‘No, the blood-colored battle flag is very strong. However, every blessing technique has to take into consideration the user’s endurance level. The two potential warlords can withstand the blessing of the blood-colored battle flag without any issues. However, the remaining three advanced martial artists are not capable of doing that. At the same time, the transfer of the battle flag will take some time. After all, this is not a power that comes from within them.’

As he had this thought, Lin Yao’s eyes lit up. At the moment, he could not beat the potential warlord carrying the blood-colored battle flag. Even if he were to win, both parties would be seriously wounded, and the remaining opposing players could easily defeat him afterward. However, the blood-colored battle flag was condensed by five people. After defeating one of them, Lin Yao noticed that the blood-colored battle flag had significantly shrunk in size. If he were to defeat three of them…

As he was staring at the remaining two advanced martial artists, Lin Yao’s eyes shone sharply.

‘I have found a way to win.’

Clang!

The long sword was returned to its sheath, and Lin Yao’s face revealed his joy. The b.l.o.o.d.y holes in his body soon stopped bleeding, and he slowly started recovering.

At the sight of the faint holes in Lin Yao’s body, the skinny young man gradually understood why Lin Yao still had combat power. However, this was the reason he was completely stunned.

“Your attacks are already very powerful. How can your defense also be akin to that of a warlord?!”

Besides the skinny young man in the arena, the commentators on the stage were also confused. There were dumbfounded expressions on their faces when they saw Lin Yao looking unaffected after taking that finger-flicking attack.

‘That’s impossible. Electric current stimulation only increases the speed and strength of the body, not the defense. In fact, his body will be a little fragile due to excessive outbursts, and he will get seriously injured once he is. .h.i.t!’

The people who were knowledgeable about Project Thunder G.o.d were baffled. They didn’t understand why Lin Yao’s defense was that strong. Nevertheless, Lin Yao was well aware of the reason.

Indeed, thunder and lightning could not increase his defense. However, apart from thunder and lightning, Lin Yao also had the power of light. When solar energy filled Lin Yao’s cells, the power of light would toughen his physical body. To be specific, this would manifest as an additional 120% of the full basic attributes due to the blessing of the Body of Light, and these full basic attributes came with defensive and physical characteristics.

In addition to the blessing of the Body of Light, Lin Yao also had the guardian holy seal, a holy seal dedicated to defense. Thanks to the blessing of the Body of Light and the guardian holy seal, Lin Yao’s defense was not lesser than his strength and speed. This was the reason he had withstood the earlier attack.

Of course, this was also because there were attacks that covered an area. The skinny young man couldn’t find Lin Yao’s real body and wanted to attack with a wider scope, which further reduced the threat to Lin Yao.

Of course, he didn’t express the thoughts in his mind. While everyone was still confused, Lin Yao had already launched another attack.

Boom.

As he was stomping on the ground with one foot, Lin Yao’s body transformed into an electric light and rushed forward again.

This time, the skinny young man retreated suddenly, and a strong and masculine figure came forward. He was the captain of the battle flag team, who had been das.h.i.+ng forward earlier. He had gotten rid of the hara.s.sment of Lin Yao’s teammates and was now confronting Lin Yao.

“Kill!”

Facing Lin Yao again, the strong and masculine youth first let out a furious holler filled with murderous intent. When he said the word ‘kill’, Lin Yao felt the blood-colored flag suddenly become bigger. The iron-blooded aura had seemingly transformed into hundreds of veteran soldiers, threatening and instilling fear in Lin Yao so that he would lose his will to fight on.

“Ss…”

“Run!”

“Don’t kill me…”

The warlord-equivalent power caused the terrifying word ‘kill’ and the iron-blooded aura to spread toward the back of Lin Yao, making many of the ordinary people behind him tremble in fear and suffer from urinary incontinence.

However, although the warcry ‘kill’ had a strong impact on the people surrounding him, Lin Yao possessed Brave Soul, which was G.o.d’s virtue and the heroic spirit of never giving up.

Even in the face of a demon and an evil dragon, heroes who possessed G.o.d’s virtue would not retreat, let alone Lin Yao, who was facing the incompletely formed blood-colored battle flag.

Clang!

Bold and fearless, Lin Yao unsheathed his sword relentlessly.

Simultaneously, the strong and masculine youth raised his right fist, mounting terrible strength in it.

Heavy Punch—Cannon!

When Lin Yao closed in on him, the fist that had condensed all the strength of a warlord smashed toward Lin Yao like a real cannon. Before the fist hit him, Lin Yao was already trembling all over. He could vaguely sense that he was unable to withstand this punch.

Nevertheless, there was no need for him to take this blow.

By the time the cannon-like, heavy punch flew toward him, Lin Yao had already unsheathed his long sword. This time, what he pulled out was not thunderlight, but a dazzling light source that looked like the sun.

The dazzling light rays bloomed in the arena like a second sun, eclipsing everything in the venue. Those who were staring straight at the arena covered their eyes and let out a painful cry.

“Ah… My eyes!”

“I’m blind!”

“Scoundrel…”

The dazzling sun merely lasted for a moment, but this moment was enough. Caught off guard, everyone looked at the sun and was blinded to the point of tearing up.

This included the strong and masculine youth who had attacked Lin Yao with a heavy punch. Lin Yao had only used his Flas.h.i.+ng Sword-Drawing Technique in school compet.i.tions, and he hadn’t used it once during this compet.i.tion. Most importantly, the battle flag team didn’t know which team they would be fighting against. They had been a little careless while gathering information about Lin Yao’s team.

In other words, they had been very confident about their abilities. Therefore, they had studied the foreigners and the teams from No. 1 High School and totally disregarded Lin Yao’s team.

All of this had resulted in the current outcome. The strong and masculine youth who had relied on his blessing to become a warrior rather than evolving into a warrior by himself was unable to resist the strong light at a close range. When the strong light entered his eyes, he went blind instantly. The sudden loss of his sight terrified him, making his punches somewhat chaotic.

Although this happened within a breath of time, Lin Yao’s Sword-Drawing Technique was an ultimate move that could determine life or death with one blow.

When his opponent panicked, Lin Yao’s body tilted slightly to dodge the heavy punch. At the same time, the long sword in his hand swept across the body of the strong and masculine youth from bottom to top.

Boom!

Crack!

Two consecutive sounds were heard. By the time the sounds were gone, the flash had disappeared. The spectators, who could see again now, were surprised to discover that the situation in the arena had been reversed.

The battle flag team, which was supposedly stronger, was down by three players—their strongest young man and two advanced martial artists.

Yes, two advanced martial artists. While everyone had been blinded by the flash, Lin Yao had launched another attack and slashed another person rapidly after injuring the strong and masculine youth.

At the moment, there were only two players left in the battle flag team. What was even more dangerous was that the two of them couldn’t condense the blood-colored battle flag. That was a joint combat skill that required at least three people.

Although the opposing team was in miserable condition, Lin Yao’s team was not doing well either. There were already two wounded players in his team. When the strong and masculine youth had rushed forward, he had hit s.h.i.+ Qiang and sent him flying. At the moment, his few remaining teammates had also collapsed on the ground. They had been trying their best to hinder the remaining players of the battle flag team. It was also because of their hard work that Lin Yao had been able to fight against the strong and masculine youth alone and successfully ambush him.

However, they were injured and didn’t have their full combat power. Besides Lin Yao, the rest of his teammates had collapsed. He was not in a good condition either. After being shot eight times, he was slowly recovering. However, the left side of his body had been scorched black and was obviously dented. That was a fracture, and blood was also oozing out of the wound continuously.

This was the injury caused by the strong and masculine youth’s Heavy Punch—Cannon. Out of the two loud noises during the fight earlier, one of them had been the sound of Lin Yao’s long sword piercing the body, and the other had been a blast caused by the strong and masculine young man. His heavy punch had actually contained the power of explosion.

After the Heavy Punch—Cannon had missed Lin Yao, it had struck the air and triggered a series of explosions. Lin Yao had ducked, but for the sake of attacking the opponent, he’d only avoided a direct hit of the fist. He had therefore not been spared by the aftermath of the explosion.

The violent explosion had numbed half of Lin Yao’s body and hurt his lungs. Half of his body was unable to exert any strength now.

However, Lin Yao could recover from such an injury. The two combat skills—Body of Light and Guardian Holy Seal—had helped Lin Yao survive the explosions. Meanwhile, Light Healing was healing his body rapidly. In addition, Light Purification had melted down all of the blood and aura of the opponent that had invaded Lin Yao’s body. As a result, his body was recovering very quickly.
