The Law of Heaven

Chapter 145 A Strike Through Belief

The autumn wind was chilly, and Xiangyi and her teammates' expressions changed slightly; some even wondered if they were hallucinating.

Is this guy crazy?

"Master."

Xiangyi tried to move his trembling right hand, surprised by the strength the other party had displayed, and said in a deep voice, "We are just carrying out a mission and have no intention of being your enemy."

“I know you are on a mission.”

Aihara waved to them, his voice indifferent: "But now, I am going to be your enemy."

Dead silence.

What an outrageous declaration of war!

The high-ranking officials watching from the hospital rooftop all thought it was a fantasy. Even if this young man from the Xiang family had shown world-class talent, he couldn't get too cocky. He could only win in a one-on-one fight; how could he possibly win against multiple opponents?
"Oh no, this young man is too reckless!"

"Isn't this just giving the other side a chance to gang up on us?"

"Reckless, so reckless!"

Jiang Hai raised an eyebrow slightly. Based on his understanding of this kid, if he dared to make such a bold statement, he must be confident.

Hearing those voices, Jiang's mother said with some displeasure, "Oh dear, there must be a reason why our Xiaoyuan did that. Didn't you see his strength just now?"

Jiang Wanwu blinked her bright eyes, her excited gaze filled with anticipation, and licked her lips as she said, "He must have gotten even stronger recently, maybe he's already at the third level!"

Xiangsi was also very nervous, her heart pounding. She opened the window, rubbed Bobo's head, and asked with pursed lips, "Master, can my brother win? The other side has more people and is more powerful. Will they take advantage of the numbers and use dirty tricks?"

Master Zhou rolled his eyes and asked, "Is this the first day you've met your brother? Is he the type to suffer losses?"

Xiangsi shook her head, her ponytail swaying: "Even if he suffers a loss, he'll still manage to take a bite out of the other side."

"Isn't that okay?"

Master Zhou rubbed his hands and said, "If your brother were in ancient times, he would be considered a very wicked rogue cultivator. No one knows where he got his strength from, but these so-called proud daughters of prestigious sects are no match for him and can only be defeated and humiliated! This is bloodline suppression. Just wait for them to be humiliated. Understand? Applause!"

He clapped his hands.

Director Yu and Officer Lin originally wanted to use human reasoning to stop the fight, but by the time they came downstairs it was too late, and they could only watch helplessly as the situation spiraled completely out of control.

A sudden gust of wind arose, and the spirit of battle permeated the air.

Faced with Aihara's arrogant and overbearing attitude, the entire special operations team reacted.

This is a member of the Xiang family's clan.

It's difficult to make a move when you're together.

But now that the other party has given them the opportunity, they must go all out and resolve it as soon as possible.

In this way, Xiangyi will not be held accountable.

They can also avenge their previous humiliation.

For the captain!

The group exchanged glances, their resolve strengthened.

"Immovable as a mountain, suppress!"

Hua Bo, like a wrathful Vajra, unleashed his strongest move without hesitation. The moment he clasped his hands together, a heavy ancient bell formed from pure energy materialized out of thin air and fell towards the boy's head!
"seal up!"

With a deafening roar, the ancient bell crashed down on Aihara's head, sending ripples of air spreading outwards. Fallen leaves scattered across the ground tumbled and rolled, swirling upwards into the sky.

What a heavy blow it was; the air itself seemed to tremble.

Aihara remained motionless, as if the heavy ancient bell above his head had stopped abruptly an inch away from him. His hair was ruffled by the wind, and his golden eyes were expressionless.

This incredible scene, at first glance, seems to defy the common sense of physics and subvert people's understanding.

In fact, there is very little information about Aihara at present, and no one knows the principles behind his abilities.

We can only try.

Hua Bo's strongest attack had no effect. Despite the fear in his eyes, he regained his composure once again.

Because Ye Qing had already launched a sudden attack, and his first move was his strongest strike. Blazing Yang Flame condensed in his hand, like a burning planet, spinning and roaring.

From the Ye family, one of the six lower families of Jiuge, one of the three perfect techniques they inherited, the Fire Heaven Diagram!

The main subject of the painting is the Buddhist deity, the Fire God.

In the Buddhist classic Mahavairocana Sutra, the Fire Deity is described as a deity covered in flames, holding a rosary and a water bottle. His image features triangular markings and symbolic elements of the Brahmanical custom of applying ash, conveying a fiery and majestic presence.

"Hotenmaru!"

Ye Qing narrowed his eyes, pressed the burning fireball in his hand against the boy's lower abdomen, and pushed hard!
boom!
The scorching flames exploded and engulfed Aihara.

The raging flames burned, leaving only a charred silhouette.

Lin Jing held her breath and concentrating, conjuring a delicate poisonous flower in her hand, then opened her red lips and blew hard.

The purple poisonous mist drifted away with the wind, disappearing into the burning flames and corroding the boy who was being burned by the flames.

Upon seeing this, Lu Zhijing roared, filled with the exhilaration of revenge: "Surrender!"

A sudden surge of mental fluctuation erupted!

The remaining two also launched a fierce attack.

Then someone exhaled a breath of black smoke.

The black mist churned and surged forward like a banshee, letting out a shriek at close range towards the black shadow being consumed by flames.

The last one rushed forward and instantly mutated into a muscular werewolf, its menacing claws tearing through the darkness.

A combined attack.

Even those who haven't reached the Grand rank in the Destiny Realm would suffer greatly if they weren't careful when facing such an attack.

Looking at her panting teammates, Xiangyi felt their good intentions and struggled with a sense of guilt, but her expression changed in an instant.

Because Aihara stepped out of the scorching flames unharmed and completely untouched.

He raised his hand and clenched it tightly.

boom!
The heavy ancient bell hanging overhead suddenly collapsed, and the surging energy scattered and overflowed in mid-air, shaking vehicles in all directions and shattering windows.

Glass shards fell like a downpour.

Panting heavily, Ye Qing had not yet calmed the turbulent spiritual energy within her body, but her eyes almost exploded with horror and shock.

The sound of wind breaking rang out, and Aihara raised his right hand and slapped him on the shoulder, the sound of bones cracking suddenly rang out.

A pressure as heavy as the deep sea descended upon Ye Qing, causing him to fall to his knees with a thud. The hard ground shattered, and spiderweb-like cracks spread out inch by inch.

Bones shattered, and a mournful cry rang out.

Muscles trembled, blood vessels were congested, internal organs felt like they were about to burst, the whole body was red and overwhelmed.

Aihara ignored him and, as if distorting space and time, shattered the wailing demon's vengeful spirit with a deafening roar. He then broke through the air and sped away.

Hua Bo had already rushed up, seemingly trying to rescue his teammates; his body was glowing with a deep blue light, as if covered by a layer of solid armor.

But Aihara floated into the air the instant he approached him, his right fist gathering immense power once more, and slammed down with force!

boom.

As if a hammer had struck, even though Hua Bo managed to raise his hands to block in time, the azure light on his arms shattered suddenly, his wrist bones were smashed and twisted.

The punch broke through his defenses and landed on his cheek.

With a heavy thud, Hua Bo was struck hard, knocked to the ground by a punch, and his light vanished.

The heavy pressure came down and slammed him hard to the ground.

The ground collapsed, and rubble crumbled.

"vice captain!"

The werewolf bared its teeth and leaped forward, but was suddenly frozen in mid-air. Then it felt a tremendous force and crashed to the ground.

With a loud thud, Aihara walked over expressionlessly, raised a foot and stomped on the wolf's head, crushing his face into the gravel.

A shrill wolf howl was heard.

Under the horrified gazes of Lin Jing and Lu Zhijing, an immense pressure descended once more, as deep and unbearable as the sea.

Plop.

Lin Jing was pinned to the ground, unable to move, her beautiful face contorted, looking like a grotesque female ghost.

As for Lu Zhijing, he fared even worse. His head slammed onto the asphalt road, bleeding like a shattered watermelon. He was still muttering something incoherently, trying to unleash his mental energy, but to no avail.

The last person was also pinned to the ground, embedded headfirst into the earth, struggling desperately but unable to break free.

For a fleeting moment, everyone watching the battle fell silent, like statues. The silence was so profound that one could almost hear each other's heartbeats and breaths; the atmosphere was extremely oppressive.

In the oppressive atmosphere, people's eyes trembled.

The powder keg of emotions was ignited.

Almost insane.

"What did I see?"

"One person against a squad?"

"Only a few seconds have passed, and they've almost been wiped out?"

Even the combat units that had just been overthrown were struck dumb; the enormous gap in combat power made it all seem like a fantasy, as if they were living in a dream.

Aihara is repeating what Aiichi did before.

Solo team push!

This seems to prove something.

There's no difference between the combat sequence and the Nine Songs Elite!
This level of skill is simply outrageous.

They are fully capable of fighting against those without a crown in the Destiny Realm!
In the silence, Aihara's mental field expanded.

With each step he took, the ground cracked and crumbled.

In just ten seconds, Xiangyi's entire team was wiped out. The sharp-looking short-haired girl showed a shocked expression, her eyes seemingly blank and confused.

She did do something, though.

She had already released her anger.

He tried to use his breath to protect his teammates.

But it didn't work.

A pressure as heavy as the deep sea enveloped a radius of twenty-five meters. Even the purest energy she released was instantly dissipated and could not be condensed into a coherent form.

How can this be?

Aihara couldn't imagine any of this. But for Aihara, it was all perfectly natural.

Although Aihara is currently only at the Cycle Transformation stage, his strength has experienced an explosive increase after fusing with the essence of the Mirage Dragon, and his basic stats have become exceptionally strong.

His abilities were perfect.

As long as the numbers are not as good as his.

Then it would be impossible to break through his defense.

Faced with his offensive, it was naturally difficult to defend against.

Unless there's some underhanded way to save their lives.

For example, running fast enough like Ye Xun.

"It's your turn."

Aihara raised his burning golden eyes and looked at the girl in front of him: "Your teammates are fighting so hard, but as the captain, you don't dare to lay a hand on me. Isn't that a bit disloyal?"

They squinted, their short hair fluttering in the wind, a surge of energy surrounding them, ready to unleash their power.

Don't let them down.

Aihara said calmly, "I won't use my status as a member of the royal family to pressure you. Just consider it an order for you to spar with me with all your might. I don't know what you're carrying, but if you don't even have this much courage, what's the point of all your hard work to get to where you are today? To be a dog for the royal family?"

Serving as a dog for the royal family...

These words finally provoked Xiangyi. She was already dissatisfied with the family's outdated and rigid rules, but she was powerless to resist them. Until she met the young man in front of her, her fate underwent a dramatic change.

His student status was revoked.

Dignity was trampled on.

Teammates were hit hard one after another.

Now, the royal family has given her the opportunity to make her move.

Why don't you dare?

Regardless of what gives this person the confidence, he ultimately has the courage to refuse the Xiang family's offer.

That's amazing.

Xiangyi has many concerns and can't be as carefree as him, but at least she can be brave enough to protect her teammates, even if she has to accept punishment from her family in the future.

She decided to give it a try.

Stand up and fight back once.

In the brief silence, a sudden gust of wind arose.

"Then, please enlighten me."

Xiangyi's eyes suddenly brightened, she took a half step back and lowered her head slightly, her white gloves trembled slightly, and a vague human face let out a scream on the verge of collapse.

A surging aura, like countless streams flowing into the sea, surrounded her, seemingly coalescing into a ferocious white tiger.

"I will defeat you in my strongest form."

She paused, then said, "With all my might."

Her short, sharp hair fluttered in the wind, and a silvery gleam shone beneath the girl's fair skin.

Her breathing suddenly changed.

"Spiritual Breathing Technique!"

The teammates, who had suffered heavy losses, were all taken aback.

That is a unique skill passed down from an ancient family, which alters the flow of spiritual energy in a unique way, maximizing its materialization and enhancing its potential.

Before the advent of the Perfection Technique, the Spirit Breathing Method was the core cultivation path for a long-lived species.

The spiritual breathing technique that Xiangyi has mastered is called Riot, which is used to enhance the power of Qi cultivation techniques.

This is the true fighting style that long-lived beings should possess.

There's not much room for improvement in ordinary fighting skills.

The true skill they possess lies in the circulation of spiritual energy, the essence honed through battle.

"riot!"

"It really is the Spirit Breathing Technique."

"The Nine Songs family is truly a hidden master."

Some of the elders also recognized this ancient technique.

The overwhelming aura emanating from it sent shivers down my spine.

I wonder if Aihara can hold on?
The air currents were surging.

All the glass in the building shattered. Director Yu and Officer Lin stared in disbelief as they watched the slender, tall boy sway in the wind, like a lone boat in a tsunami.

"Ohara..."

Jiang's mother pursed her lips and prayed with her hands pressed against her chest.

"Believe him."

A silver glint flashed in Jiang Hai's eyes as he analyzed the data of this attack, which was clearly exceptional.

"You absolutely mustn't lose!"

Jiang Wanwu covered half her face and murmured, "If the royal family loses to the collateral branch, then what will happen to you in the future..."

"elder brother."

Xiangsi nervously gripped the back of Bobo's neck, biting her pale lips until they bled, showing how tense she was.

"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid!"

Master Zhou was still comforting the little girl.

The aura of violence rose steadily.

Chairman Ruan stood by the window, looking at the battlefield in the parking lot, and narrowed his eyes slightly: "Spiritual Breathing Technique, this little girl's talent is truly extraordinary. Although she is not as good as You Qing, she is by no means inferior."

As the operating room doors opened, Jiang Youqing, dressed in a white coat, took off her mask and walked out, saying calmly, "The patient is still being resuscitated, so I'm not needed for the time being."

"Then come and take a look."

Chairman Ruan waved her hand and said with a half-smile, "Let's see how your little boyfriend breaks this deadlock."

"No matter who the opponent is, given his personality, as long as he dares to fight, he is unlikely to lose."

Jiang Youqing stared blankly at the surging air currents in the parking lot, which seemed to rise into the sky like a tornado.

At that very moment, Chairman Ruan seemed to see something, and a hint of astonishment appeared on his face.

"Huh? Did I see wrong?"

The old man was stunned for a moment, and for some reason, he felt a very familiar aura.

It's as if I'm seeing my younger self.

boom!
The nearest combat units were engulfed by the violent force, their vision went black!

As if caught in an endless storm, Xiangyi offered a soft palm strike, yet it seemed to shake the heavens and earth.

The white tiger roared, its power shaking the heavens.

"Riot, Tier 2!"

Xiangyi whispered, "Turbulent sea currents!"

Beneath the girl's fair skin, the silver radiance suddenly became chaotic, like turbulent ocean currents.

A white tiger, seemingly formed from condensed clouds, swept in with a raging storm, as if to shatter the world before Aihara, leaving everything in its wake in ruins.

This is a powerful strike from Xiangyi.

The culmination of over a decade of dedicated practice!

The momentum is overwhelming.

"It's an amazing ability."

Aihara's bangs were blown loose, and his suit was torn in the wind, as if it might be blown away by the storm at any moment.

Faced with this attack, he simply brought his fingers together, and the combined force of attraction and repulsion extended from his fingertips, like an invisible blade, trembling and humming.

This is his most concentrated offensive state, achieved by combining his two delusions.

The white-haired girl seemed to materialize out of thin air and struck the exact same starting pose as him.

That's a starting stance in Kendo.

Simple and unpretentious.

Yet, his killing intent was palpable.

For a moment, Ruan Xingzhi, who had arrived at the battlefield, was stunned, thinking he had seen something wrong.

"This swordsmanship..."

He was startled: "Something's not right!"

Mu Bei also witnessed the spectacular scene in the parking lot, and put his hands together, saying, "Amitabha, well done, well done!"

Xiang Yi also frowned, expressing his displeasure: "A collateral branch challenging the imperial family? They are truly overestimating themselves."

boom!
The parking lot collapsed with a loud crash.

With unwavering gazes, the white tiger, formed from condensed energy, crashed to the ground, pouring out more than a decade's worth of sweat and toil!

The roar seemed to echo through the silent street.

Aihara closed his eyes, gently exhaled a breath of stale air, and recalled the moment the old man demonstrated the Demon God Slash.

He suddenly raised his hand, his slender fingers like sharp swords, and gently swung them along the endless darkness.

There was a click.

The darkness seemed to be cut off for a moment.

Light and shadow intersect.

The chilling glint of the blade flashed by in an instant, piercing through the ruins of the parking lot and past the howling white tiger.

There was a click.

A single strand of hair on her forehead broke off.
