783: Chapter Four Hundred and Ninety-One: Probing 783: Chapter Four Hundred and Ninety-One: Probing Xu Yuan felt he was indeed the strongest among his peers.
After all, if one put aside strength and only considered battle achievents, who among his contemporaries could stand shoulder to shoulder with him?
Simply bringing out the Barbarian King Chi Su’s head, he was already invincible.
Who else in his generation could kill a Saint?
Su Jinxuan or Tianyan?
Oh no, Tianyan was six years older than him, not of the sa generation.
And after excluding Tianyan, those geniuses from the Sects, Big Ice Lump was already their limit, yet she was still a dunce who hadn’t even broken through to the Primordial.
Even disregarding his peers, Xu Changge that prick was completely insignificant in front of him, Xu Yuan.
The best achievent of this elder brother was nothing more than a mutual injury with Semi-Saint Luo Bingli, and even that was after he and Lou Ji took turns depleting Luo Bingli’s strength.
So, he, Xu Yuan, was indeed the strongest.
However, toward Xu Yuan’s sincere answer, O’Reilly couldn’t help but burst into laughter, her laughter shaking like a blooming flower:
“Pfft, hahaha….”
After laughing enough, O’Reilly gently tapped her cheek with her hand and spoke with a hint of seriousness:
“Although I seriously doubt Prince Changtian’s words, seeing as it’s for the sake of your elder brother, I will still afford you ample respect.”
“Tsk, if you don’t believe it, forget it.”
Xu Yuan sighed softly and suddenly vanished from O’Reilly’s sight.
O’Reilly, as if she had anticipated this, lightly danced her slender index finger as if conducting with a baton.
A round of deep blue complicated patterns of a magic ring instantly rged into her body, and on another round of the purple-black magic ring started to flicker with a barely discernible Lightning Arc.
But before the Lightning Arc could transform from weak to strong, the purple-black magic ring abruptly dimd.
The spellcraft had been interrupted.
O’Reilly’s beautiful eyes took on a hint of amusent as she looked toward a void a hundred ters away.
There, Xu Yuan’s suddenly vanished figure reappeared.
They looked at each other in silence.
O’Reilly huffed lightly through her delicate nose, her gaze slightly bored, as she said,
“It seems that you, the strongest of your generation, are completely no match for your brother.
If it were him, he would have closed in on directly and then used that exquisite technique, which is almost divine, to crush head-on.”
Xu Yuan eyed the various patterns and magic rings floating around O’Reilly, his face bearing a trace of contemplation:
“Xu Changge is strong, but not witless.
Just now, he simply wanted to show that in dire straits, one must have the resolve to fight to the death.”
While speaking, Xu Yuan raised his hand and pointed at the patterns and magic rings encircling his opponent:
“These things should be the dium for you to cast your spellcraft?
The black one is a Spatial Magic Ring, and as for that round one that rged into your body just now, it must be so kind of detection magic ring.
If so, my Step Void Slash will have great difficulty affecting you.”
In an instant, O’Reilly understood he was using her reaction to probe the type of her spellcraft.
She swiftly raised her bare arm, pointing toward Xu Yuan, her soft and beautiful voice carrying a laugh:
“You would find out if you tried, Prince Changtian.”
As she spoke.
A round of magic rings behind her that emitted a faint red glow suddenly shone brightly, becoming as dazzling as the morning sun.
Xu Yuan, seeing this, did not react and stood silently in place.
This was a rather unfair battle.
Being an envoy, O’Reilly had likely obtained plenty of information about Dayan’s cultivation system during her ti in Di’an City, while he, Xu Yuan, knew next to nothing about Xi’en Kingdom’s so-called magic rings.
The difference in this cultivation system made it impossible for Xu Yuan to judge the princess of Xi’en’s strength using conventional wisdom.
After all, as far as his perception was concerned, O’Reilly’s body was no different from that of a regular human.
But it was precisely because of this that he needed to probe, to achieve the effect of capturing her in one fell swoop.
In the silence,
a massive explosion fireball suddenly condensed and shot towards Xu Yuan like a cannonball.
Watching the fireball grow rapidly larger in his field of vision as it approached, a smile of ambiguous aning flickered in Xu Yuan’s eyes.
A classic opening move, the fireball spell, as a form of respect.
Worthy of a traditional mage.
But since the opponent was a mage, he might as well start by testing this woman with a mage’s thods.
The thought flashed by, and the Blood Essence teoring Art quickly started circulating.
In an instant, a blood marrow bone drill half a ter in length condensed at his side.
Shooting out later but arriving sooner, the blood marrow bone drill thrust towards the explosion fireball!
Under Xu Yuan’s Spiritual Perception, the fireball, which was condensed by the magic ring, contained strong power that could create a huge crater in the ground if it hit.
However, the fact that the fireball had no physical substance was an unavoidable drawback.
His blood marrow bone drill would directly penetrate this fireball, then shoot towards O’Reilly’s true body.
At the sa ti, this fireball would continue its rush towards him.
Therefore, as the blood marrow bone drill shot out, several translucent blood-colored mirrors began condensing around Xu Yuan, preparing to block the fireball whose force had been reduced by the drill.
The reality was exactly as Xu Yuan had anticipated.
Although the blood marrow bone drill had lted significantly due to the searing flas, it still pierced through the fireball with ease, like stabbing into tofu!
It carried a spiraling strong wind, even boring a penetrating tunnel through the fireball.
And just as the blood marrow bone drill completely pierced through the fireball, shooting unstoppably towards O’Reilly, the fireball laden with terrifying power suddenly exploded.
“Boom!!!”
The scorching hurricane engulfed the blood marrow bone drill, altering its flight trajectory, and fine cracks appeared on its surface, quickly spreading.
More importantly, the shockwave from the explosion severed the channel of Origin Qi that controlled the blood marrow bone drill, and the uncontrolled drill shot towards a nearby paddy field before disintegrating into sparkling lights and vanishing without a trace.
Observing this first true exchange of blows, Xu Yuan’s eyes gradually narrowed.
It appeared to be a draw, but he discovered a very interesting point.
O’Reilly seed to lack the cultivator’s will-spirit and Origin Qi manipulation to sense everything around her from a “god’s-eye view,”
When the blood marrow bone drill was condensing, O’Reilly did not react, and she did not react when the bone drill collided with the fireball; even as the bone drill was about to completely pierce the fireball, she still had no reaction until the bone drill appeared in her sight and then she suddenly triggered the fireball to explode.
She was restricted by the blind spots of human vision.
And moreover…
Xu Yuan’s golden-blooded eyes surreptitiously glanced at the complicated green magic behind O’Reilly.
This woman seed incapable of controlling the spellcraft she had already deployed.
The explosion of the fireball was not the result of a direct detonation, but triggered by an imperceptible, secret energy shot from the pale green magic ring.
Thinking of this, Xu Yuan took a deep breath and whispered with a smile,
“Princess, I think I’ve figured out your way of fighting.”
