Chapter 750: Chapter 750: 382: Show of Strength, Overwhelming Suppression

The Black Prison Flame Body is also one of the top body refining methods of the Green Flame Palace.

As far as Lu Yun understood,

this method is similar to the Thunder Tribulation Body Method, both being at the pinnacle of methods beneath the holy body methods.

The higher the level of cultivation of the Black Prison Flame Body, the more terrifying the black flames of the inferno it forms.

However, judging by Liu Yeqing’s appearance, he must have only recently cultivated the Black Prison Flame Body and was far from being able to condense black flames and form an inferno.

Even if he had reached that level, to Lu Yun it was nothing more than that, barely causing a ripple.

Gone was the composure from Liu Yeqing’s face, replaced with an expression full of shadows. He stood atop a black flame lotus, surrounded by the searing blaze of black flames.

With him at its center, the space in all directions nearly solidified, as his powerful aura was released without restraint.

“I, Liu Yeqing, am the true Heavenly Pride. Lu Yun, you are nothing but a stepping stone to me,” he said coldly, looking down at Lu Yun.

His greatest trump card, the Black Prison Flame Body, filled him with confidence. In his strong state, he felt certain he could defeat the Lu Yun of that moment.

Hum!

With each step he took, slowly but with an indescribably heavy force, lotus flowers of black flame rose up around him, ripples spreading through the air, shaking space until it cracked like glass.

It seemed as though he made no move, yet the invisible oppressive force he exuded continuously assaulted all around, with Lu Yun bearing the brunt of it.

However, the ever-increasing pressure and even the terrifying black flames were halted before reaching Lu Yun.

Half a foot in front of Lu Yun, there seemed to be an invisible wall of qi, indestructible, rendering Liu Yeqing’s formidable aura unable to breach it by the slightest.

“Heavenly Human Realm, rank eight?”

Liu Yeqing was slightly moved.

Lu Yun was known for his monstrous cultivation speed within the Green Flame Palace, and it was common knowledge among everyone.

His public show had always been that of the seventh rank of the Heavenly Human Realm. Despite applying various secret methods to perceive aura, he had never discovered it.

The clash of auras now forced Lu Yun to reveal his cultivation level, unable to hide it any longer.

This was almost everyone at the scene’s thought.

“Correct.”

Lu Yun lifted his head slightly.

His Heavenly Human Realm, rank eight, was something he deliberately revealed.

His cultivation of the “Hidden Profundity Mysterious Technique” had already reached perfection. Unless he chose to reveal his full aura, no one below the Entering Saint Realm could possibly discern it.

“So the Black Prison Flame Body is your biggest trump card?” Lu Yun fixed his gaze on Liu Yeqing, as a faint golden light flickered in his profound pupils, his eyes containing a special charm.

Only by completely crushing all of Liu Yeqing’s confidence and pride could he truly strike a harsh blow to his opponent.

“Being defeated by the Black Prison Flame Body, Lu Yun, is enough for you to feel proud!”

Whoosh!

At this moment, Liu Yeqing ceased his pointless probing and oppression, as the black flame lotus at his feet and the surrounding black flames erupted in unison.

Instantly, a brilliant streak of black light flashed, and Liu Yeqing’s figure had vanished from the spot.

In the fraction of a breath later, he suddenly appeared before Lu Yun, and a gigantic black flame lotus blossomed, suppressing heaven and earth.

To onlookers, it seemed as if Lu Yun was grasped by a giant black hand, the horrifying black flames burning fiercely, slowly engulfing him.

Boom!

Suddenly, a streak of golden light appeared before everyone’s eyes, and the black flames dispersed entirely.

Lu Yun stood unmovably at his original spot, with a flicker of golden light in his indifferent eyes. A powerful divine power surged from within him like a raging sea, breaking through the suppressed heaven and earth in an instant.

Subsequently, with a casual wave of his hand, divine power surged like a violent tidal wave, shaking heaven and earth and sending Liu Yeqing, who stood on the black lotus amidst the flames, flying harshly into the distant Forbidden Tower.

“Puh!”

Blood spurted from Liu Yeqing’s throat, his face turning deathly pale as he was jolted out of his Black Prison Flame Body state.

“So this is your trump card, yet so easily defeated?” Lu Yun’s gaze flickered, as a disdainful smile spread across his face.

He certainly hadn’t forgotten his objective, to utterly shatter his opponent’s confidence, preferably leaving him with no chance for recovery.

Against his enemies, he showed no mercy.

If this had not been within the Green Flame Palace, he would simply have crushed him with one hand.

Unfortunately, here was the Green Flame Palace, with many disciples watching, and possibly powerful beings observing in secret.

Both Lu Yun’s words and the disdainful smile on his face turned Liu Yeqing’s complexion green and caused his body to shudder violently with rage.

After all, he was a Heavenly Pride, having cultivated the Black Prison Flame Body to Entry Level. Even those on the Mountain River List were worthy of a battle with him; he had never been so belittled before.

If it was any other time, Liu Yeqing would have already trampled him underfoot.

But now, looking at the peerless figure cloaked in divine golden power, Liu Yeqing felt a strong sense of dread, even fear.

It had been a long time since he had felt fear, except for ten years ago, when he faced that man imbued with terrifying Thunder Power.@@novelbin@@

But that person relied on having cultivated for a longer time than him, overpowering him with a higher realm.

Lu Yun was different. His cultivation time was shorter, and even his realm was not as high as Liu Yeqing’s.

Under such circumstances, he could not even withstand a single move from Lu Yun, causing hate and fear to arise within him.

He envied Lu Yun’s strength, wondering how he could rise so quickly in such a short time.

He feared Lu Yun’s strength, knowing that even with his strongest trump card revealed, he was no match for Lu Yun in a single move.

Envy and fear, along with many other emotions, intertwined, dealing an unprecedented blow to his unconquered heart, creating crack after crack.
