Chapter 59 The Emperor's Eldest Son (16)
On the dueling platform.
Changqing sneered inwardly; his scumbag father was truly paving the way for his illegitimate son at all times.
He took a step back.
Dragon patterns shone on his body, indicating that he had activated his defensive magic weapon, the Nine-Star Dragon Scale Armor. He then flipped his hand, and a small black and white shield grew rapidly in the wind, protecting him from behind.
Everyone: ?!
Are they going all out to defend before even declaring war?
So cowardly?
However, seeing that all the magical treasures he activated were of superior quality, many people felt a pang of envy. Damn it, this good-for-nothing has so many magical treasures just because he was born into a good family, while they, who clearly have good talent, have to struggle at the bottom.
The old man who was acting as the referee was also taken aback, his expression somewhat indescribable.
"start!"
The old man didn't mince words and immediately announced the start of the duel.
Su Bai remained calm, standing there without rushing to attack.
"Heh, Yue Changqing, is this your strategy? What other defensive treasures do you have? Unleash them all!"
This composure drew cheers from the audience.
Changqing remained silent, only activating its defenses.
Several more defensive magic items were activated, but their grades were all much lower, and in the end, even general-level magic items were used.
A dazzling light emanated from his body, almost completely obscuring him.
A collective gasp rippled through the audience.
"So many defensive magic treasures, including some at the Quasi-Emperor level, I'm afraid even a Royal-level expert wouldn't be able to break through them in a short time."
"Heh, what's the difference between playing like this and being a coward? It's really shameful. Look at the Emperor of Yue on the stage, his face has turned green."
"Foolish! The activation and maintenance of magic treasures also rely on profound energy. Yue Changqing is only at the general level. He can't possibly activate so many magic treasures at once."
"Hahaha, you're right, brother. That kid is afraid of dying. He went all out at once. I bet he won't last even half an incense stick's time."
Su Bai couldn't help but smile.
Hold out to the death?
How long can they hold out?
With a wave of his hand, a gust of wind swept through, and a force struck the black and white shield in front of Changqing.
Bang!
A muffled thud, a flash of light, and then vanished without a trace.
"Oh!"
Su Bai snorted coldly, and the next moment, his figure swayed, and the field was filled with white shadows.
Ding ding ding ding!
The sounds of impact continued, like a violent storm, spreading out in a continuous stream, with light scattering everywhere, dazzling and magnificent.
"Holy crap, such a dense barrage of attacks, the eyes can barely keep up with the shadows! Moreover, the force of each strike is almost identical, it's safe to say that their control over their magical power has reached a very high level!"
Some people couldn't help but sigh immediately.
"At this rate, Yue Changqing probably won't even last half an incense stick's time!"
"The longer Changqing is, the more flawed his strategy becomes. His cultivation is already weak, and he's still resorting to such attrition tactics. Now, he's completely at a disadvantage, and there's no suspense left," someone concluded.
"Then what strategy do you suggest? If you don't have enough strength, no strategy will work."
He should have just admitted defeat!
Will Evergreen admit defeat? Of course not.
He erected a defense, his magic surged, and various defensive artifacts emitted brilliant light, absorbing, dissipating, and even reflecting all attacks, without suffering any harm himself.
But he still pretended to be struggling, his jaw clenched, his face slightly distorted from the effort.
Bang bang bang bang!
Another series of attacks followed.
We can hold on.
Boom boom boom!
Su Bai used a lot of fire talismans, which exploded around Changqing, producing a huge cracking sound.
fine.
It can still hold up.
To everyone's surprise, although Yue Changqing looked as if his magical power was about to be exhausted, he gritted his teeth and held on.
"The attack has lasted for more than the time it takes for an incense stick to burn. That kid must be running out of magic power."
"He must have taken a pill to increase his magical power!"
"Heh, even taking pills temporarily won't help. His foundation isn't strong enough. Didn't you see how he was shaking just now? He's definitely about to run out of energy," someone commented.
On the stage, Yue Cangwu narrowed his eyes slightly. He was also somewhat surprised that his unfilial son could persist for so long.
Hmm, it seems like he took something.
It's estimated to be a drug purchased at a high price to temporarily replenish mana.
He noticed that Changqing seemed to take something out and swallow it.
"Ha, drinking poison to quench thirst, it only prolongs the time."
He made a deduction in his mind.
Beside him, the Supreme Elder of the Sword Sect also opened his eyes, looking at the battle not far away with an indifferent expression.
The retired emperor still had a smile on his face, looking like he was watching a good show. As for the owner of Wan Jin Lou, he leaned slightly forward, clearly quite concerned.
At this moment, Su Bai was also feeling a little anxious.
After all, such a high-intensity attack consumed a lot of his mana. More importantly, he originally intended to finish the battle quickly and didn't bring any pills to temporarily replenish his mana.
It should be noted that those temporary supplements often have some side effects, and geniuses capable of defeating high-level cultivators would disdain taking them.
But who would have thought—
That guy not only took it without any scruples, but it also seemed he had prepared a lot.
"Hehe, even if you can persevere with taking pills like this, you will eventually fall seriously ill, and may even accumulate pill toxins, causing your cultivation to regress!"
He sneered and quickened his attack again.
The audience gradually quieted down.
Everyone noticed that although Su Bai's attacks were fierce, almost reaching the level of a king, Yue Changqing was able to withstand them, and it seemed that he could continue to withstand them.
"He's prolonging his defeat by accumulating erysipelas. Is it really worth it?" someone couldn't help but sigh.
"I'm afraid that kid will be crippled after this battle. He's suffering from accumulated erysipelas, and there's still no effective way to treat it."
"He probably didn't want to lose too badly in front of his father, right? Sigh." Someone couldn't help but sigh.
Changqing: ......
Hearing everyone's guesses, he couldn't help but want to laugh.
Taking elixirs during battle?
He had no such thoughts. He was only eating hawthorn balls to fill his stomach. He was just bored with defending like this, and it even made him feel a little hungry.
"Yue Changqing! You think you can win by consuming pills regardless of your own path? Let me tell you, you forced me to this."
Finally, Su Bai couldn't hold back any longer.
He shouted and stopped attacking. With a flick of his wrist, a giant, dark axe appeared, its surface shimmering with runes and emitting a chilling dark light.
Quasi-Emperor Rank Magic Treasure.
This is getting serious.
