This humanoid creature from beyond the wall unleashed its full strength in an attempt to kill with a single strike.
"Bang!"
In a hurry, Ye Tianfan kicked up to clash with the humanoid creature.
Their legs collided, producing a muffled thud, followed by a blast of forceful wind.
The ground instantly kicked up dust; the nearby Taichu Zhenren swiftly held his breath, yet kept his eyes open, unwilling to miss any exciting moment!
"Bang bang bang bang..."
Ye Tianfan retreated four steps, each step leaving a depression in the ground, until he planted firmly to steady himself.
When the dust settled, Taichu Zhenren finally saw the situation clearly; after all, at this moment, Taichu Zhenren was without spiritual power to use and couldn't see what was happening amidst the dust. It was only when the dust cleared, could he see clearly that Ye Tianfan was standing in a small pit, his right leg constantly shaking, cold sweat already dripping from his forehead. He clearly did not expect the humanoid creature to possess such explosive power; this force significantly stronger than the creature's earlier attack, even twice!
In pure strength, the humanoid creature had the upper hand!
Ye Tianfan thought the humanoid creature's speed was its asset, always guarding against it. Although its attacks came with a breaking sound, which Ye Tianfan could also achieve with his ability, he didn't pay much attention to the creature's strength. But what Ye Tianfan didn't expect is the creature's force was also exceptional, astonishingly strong enough to surprise him!
With such speed and strength, Ye Tianfan felt he might not be able to defeat this humanoid creature!
At this point, Taichu Zhenren finally understood his oversight!
Taichu Zhenren always felt that the strength of this humanoid creature was superior to Ye Tianfan's, but its speed hadn't been fully employed despite taking hits, leaving Taichu Zhenren puzzled. Now he discovered what he had overlooked – he focused only on the creature's speed, neglecting its strength, which could push Ye Tianfan back four or five paces, proving the creature's might!
After a brief exchange of glances, Ye Tianfan shook his numbed right leg, thinking: He didn't expect the humanoid creature's strength to be this formidable. Previously, when his spiritual power was intact, he realized the creature was stronger, but still thought the difference was limited and primarily speed-related. Yet he underestimated the creature's strength, leading to being unprepared!
Understanding now wasn't too late. Despite his right leg feeling fractured, with his recovery ability, it would likely heal within half an hour. He would try not using the right leg, or not engaging with the creature using legs, enduring the pain until he could use spiritual power for recovery!
Ye Tianfan took a deep breath, steadied focus, his aura calming instantly as he prepared to push palms and fists, assuming a defensive stance, with his gaze slowly settling on the humanoid creature. Now, Ye Tianfan decided to defend using skills from his past life, enduring longer to recover more!
Ye Tianfan's actions, looking casual, were actually underlined with confident and poised composure.
In Taichu Zhenren's view, this fist technique wasn't the body-strengthening technique of Taichu Sect, nor resembled any sect's technique he had seen—could it be self-invented by Ye Tianfan?
Instantly, Taichu Zhenren was even more impressed with Ye Tianfan's genius, even though he hadn't seen Ye Tianfan strike yet, the aura itself was proof that Ye Tianfan's fist technique wasn't simple!
The humanoid creature didn't care about Ye Tianfan's fist technique, rushing forward with heavy fists, feet stepping quickly, and a fierce fist wind attacking Ye Tianfan, accelerating as it approached Ye Tianfan's attack range!
Ye Tianfan sneered coldly, fists advancing with palms! His fists were like fierce tigers, powerful and intense, possessing the momentum of dragons soaring and tigers leaping! His body resembled a celestial crane, graceful and agile, with the brilliance of tranquility!
This fist technique was the Ye Family's signature, capable of both offense and defense; fierce in attack, defensive like Black Tortoise, preventing the enemy from closing in while identifying enemy weak points to strike.
Ye Tianfan attacked fluidly, with force reminiscent of a tempest battering the humanoid creature. Despite the creature's fierce attack, it couldn't injure Ye Tianfan, rather ended with Ye Tianfan's tiger-like fist, striking hard onto its chest.
"Bang!"
The creature's chest instantly dented significantly, spewing a mouthful of solid-filled blackish-purple liquid, evidently indicating Ye Tianfan shattered some internal organs with that blow!
Seeing this, Ye Tianfan was puzzled because earlier when he struck through its throat, he didn't see this blackish-purple liquid. Now striking the chest leads the creature to cough blood, making Ye Tianfan wonder if the creature's core was there?
If the creature's core is in its chest, Ye Tianfan might have a chance to impede its abilities!
Yet the creature bent its body, rapidly speeding up, sending a straight punch fiercely toward Ye Tianfan's face.
Ye Tianfan responded similarly, with a solid punch but mindful of the creature's strength, employing subtle technique in his move!
"Bang!"
A muffled thud.
A large and small fist collided, the humanoid creature retreated over ten steps, collapsing hard onto the ground, its whole body trembling, its right hand somewhat shattered, fingers slightly twisted.
