Simultaneous Transmigration: Freedom Across the Heavens
Chapter 38 The Battle of the Grandmasters
Inside the Imperial Study, Emperor Qing and Chen Pingping stood on the terrace, gazing towards the Imperial Garden.
Emperor Qing's eyes were deep. "Pingping, what do you think the outcome of this battle will be?"
Chen Pingping said confidently, "Your Majesty, with Grandmaster Ye taking action, 20,000 elite troops in the rear, and another Grandmaster in the palace, Bai Li is bound to be defeated."
Emperor Qing thought about it and agreed. He only needed to severely injure Bai Li, and then he could make his move quietly. This was why he chose the palace as the battlefield.
"His Majesty."
Chen Pingping tentatively asked, "This old servant dares to ask, does Your Majesty wish to subdue this person, or to eliminate him as soon as possible?"
Emperor Qing lowered his eyes, his tone chilling, "It would be best if he could be subdued, but this man is arrogant and unruly, and I'm afraid he will be difficult to obey."
"Then Your Majesty might as well break this man's bones and hand him over to the Censorate for safekeeping. What if he proves useful in the future?"
Emperor Qing turned around and stared intently at Chen Pingping, his imposing aura as heavy as a mountain.
Chen Pingping remained calm, bowing his head.
After a long silence, Emperor Qing withdrew his gaze and said, "As you say."
At that moment, the voices of the guards outside the imperial study rose and fell, shouting, "Catch the assassin!"
Emperor Qing dismissed his guards and chuckled, "The palace is quite lively tonight."
Yuhu Garden, Lakeside Pavilion.
Bai Li squatted by the lake, his palm creating ripples in the water, and said, "Ye Liuyun, you seem carefree, but you're actually full of shackles. Under these circumstances, can you unleash your full power?"
Ye Liuyun's eyes were both clear and dim, and he said calmly, "After this battle, I will be free from all shackles and will definitely go all out."
"This is the bargaining chip that Emperor Qing offered you."
For the first time, a flicker of emotion appeared on Ye Liuyun's usually calm face. "So you really do know that His Majesty is the Grandmaster in the palace."
Ah!
Bai Li sneered inwardly. Emperor Qing had set up the battlefield inside the palace simply to take advantage of any loopholes. This battle was both a test and a decisive blow.
Therefore, in this battle, I not only need to win, but I also need to win decisively and swiftly.
As for the 20,000 soldiers gathered at Dongshun Gate, they were nothing but clay chickens and earthen dogs.
"Let's go then!"
Bai Lizhi stood up, clapped his hands, and circulated his magnetic true energy throughout his body, causing his body to soar into the sky and float in mid-air.
Ye Liuyun's true energy surged, her hair flew wildly, and her crane cloak moved without wind.
He frowned slightly, his gaze fixed on Bai Li, who was suspended in mid-air. He couldn't hit her, so how was he supposed to hit her?
Those skilled in attack attack from the highest heavens.
Ye Liuyun, the version has been updated, you guys are outdated.
Bai Li's gaze swept over Ye Liuyun, then turned towards the Imperial Study. "Emperor Qing, watch carefully and learn well."
After tonight, my good brother Fan Xian will achieve the title of "Poet Immortal," and I cannot fall behind.
"Sword, come!"
Bai Li shouted loudly, and an invisible wave rippled out, sweeping across the entire palace. The weapons in the hands of the palace guards, palace guards, and the 20,000 elite soldiers trembled slightly, and then broke free from their control, flying into the air like birds returning to their nests.
The cold light was sharp and dazzling. Tens of thousands of weapons surrounded Bai Li, constantly condensing and shrinking, eventually forming a silver-white dragon that was a hundred meters long.
"What is this...?"
"immortal?"
"You...youkai!"
Everyone in the palace looked up in shock, some even trembling with fear, their arrogance palpable.
The 20,000 elite soldiers swallowed hard, looking at their empty hands. Were they going to fight this monster?
But we don't have any weapons, how are we supposed to fight? Gnaw at them with our teeth?
Even so, military orders were absolute, and the 20,000 elite soldiers, selected from various military camps, did not retreat. However, most of them lamented in their hearts:
Parents, your unfilial son fears he will not be able to return home...
My wife and children, may you both be well from now on...
In the imperial study, Emperor Qing gripped the armrest tightly. He knew that Bai Li's move was a way of telling him: your soldiers are not worth mentioning.
"His Majesty."
Chen Pingping looked anxious. These soldiers were all elite troops of Nanqing. If they could hold off Bai Li, that would be fine, but given the current situation, rushing in would only be a death sentence.
Emperor Qing was unwilling, but in the end he suppressed his anger, exhaled a breath of turbid air, and said in a deep voice: "Issue my order, the Xiaoguo Army shall retreat five hundred meters."
"Yes, sir!" Someone outside the imperial study responded and left.
In the Hanguang Hall, Li Yunrui stood under the corridor, his expression shifting between worry and resentment.
Meeting Ye Liuyun tonight made her realize her true feelings; she had long harbored feelings for Bai Li. She was also indignant that Emperor Qing had used her to lure Bai Li into a trap.
Li Yunrui gritted her teeth as if she wanted to grind them to powder, glaring hatefully at the Imperial Study, a madness flashing in her eyes.
If anything happens to Bai Li, then let everyone go crazy with me.
"Good heavens!"
Just as Fan Xian was overjoyed to receive the key, he was stunned into freezing place by a strange phenomenon in the sky.
He recognized Bai Li's methods at a glance, surprised that he would fight someone inside the palace, and even more shocked by the sheer power of the techniques. He couldn't help but mutter to himself, "This is... a Grandmaster!"
At the pavilion in the middle of the lake, Ye Liuyun appeared exceptionally small beneath the silvery-white dragon.
His true energy surged, and the pavilion, unable to bear the weight, shattered with a crash. The fragments floated in mid-air, a testament to the solidified true energy of a Grandmaster.
In mid-air, Bai Li lowered his eyes, lightly flicked his sword finger, and the silver-white dragon suddenly swooped down, tens of thousands of weapons whistling in the air, directly impacting Ye Liuyun.
Ye Liuyun became famous for his swordsmanship in his early years. After a great battle with Wu Zhu, he abandoned his sword and focused on palm techniques, creating his own unique skill, Liuyun Sanshou, which is simple, powerful, and superior to any other technique.
At this moment, his true energy circulated, his palm movements were fluid and powerful, constantly knocking down the incoming weapons.
Ye Liuyun unleashed a powerful palm strike, shattering the surrounding weapons with its ferocious force. Taking advantage of the momentum, he stepped on the broken weapons and moved with lightning speed, closing the distance to Bai Li within ten meters in just a few leaps.
As expected of Grandmaster Ye.
Bai Li focused his mind, and with a swirling of his magnetic true energy, the surrounding weapons began to swirl, encircling Ye Liuyun in the center and forming a huge sphere that slowly contracted.
Bang! A loud noise,
Ye Liuyun unleashed his true energy, shattering thousands of weapons that fell from the sky. He landed lightly on the lake's surface and said calmly, "Your move is flashy but ineffective; it crumbles at the first touch."
Bai Li nodded, not denying it.
He also discovered that this move, though seemingly powerful, was actually like a castle in the air. It was perfect for clearing out weaklings, but it was completely ineffective against opponents of his own level.
Bai Li floated down from the air, lightly touching the water's surface. His true energy condensed in his palm, and wisps of electric arcs appeared. An electromagnetic field quietly formed in the air. "This move is called the Great Electromagnetic Hand. Please enlighten me."
Electromagnetic force enveloped the weapon and continuously compressed it. Under the combined effects of gravity and acceleration, the weapon turned crimson red, as if it were about to melt.
Boom!
The blood-red weapon suddenly transformed into several long rainbows, bombarding Ye Liuyun; it was the martial arts version of an electromagnetic cannon.
Ye Liuyun looked surprised. Sensing the energy, his intuition told him that he absolutely could not take this attack head-on.
He mastered his movement technique to its fullest extent, moving like drifting clouds or wisps of smoke. Relying on the intuition and prediction of a Grandmaster, he moved before the electromagnetic cannon was fired, barely managing to dodge it.
Bai Li felt slightly helpless. This move, the Great Electromagnetic Hand, was incredibly powerful. Even a Grandmaster would be severely injured if hit by it, if not killed.
The reason why a Grandmaster is a Grandmaster is not only because of his physical body that has been tempered to the extreme, but also because of his divine ability to predict the trajectory of an attack before it is launched, which makes him truly difficult to deal with.
Bai Li canceled the electromagnetic field, and the Imperial Garden was already in ruins. The expensive and rare flowers and trees were reduced to ashes by the aftershocks of their battle.
If ranged attacks don't work, then close combat will.
Bai Li's body shone brightly, electricity crackled, and with a flash of arc light, he instantly appeared in front of Ye Liuyun and threw a punch.
Ye Liuyun had no time to think. Liuyun released his hand, leaving behind a trail of afterimages, which eventually transformed into a palm strike, meeting the punch head-on.
Rumble!
The two men clashed fists and palms, and the force of their blows exploded from the point of contact, creating sonic booms that seemed to shatter the air and raise huge waves several meters high on the lake.
