The Last Rock Emperor - Chapter 423
Chapter 423 Ji Clan’s Foundation
Ji Tianming’s eyes flickered as he watched the Rock King shoot out. As the emerald-like dark green crystal energy surged, it flew towards the field.
In fact, Ji Tianming’s battle wasn’t just a matter of stratagem. He really wanted to see the strength of this Rock King.
As the son of the Ji family, he had an incomprehensible pride, and was extremely curious about the man who had captured his little sister.
He wanted to know what level this fellow who was called the number one person in China was, and whether he was as strong as the rumors had it.
“Ta …!”
On the field, both sides stood still. As the crystal energy surged, one was dark red, one was dark green, one was thick and sharp, and one was full of vitality.
As Yifan stepped forward, his crystalline power circulated, and a ferocious and domineering set of Dragon Scaled Battle Armor slowly appeared. The moment the armor appeared, it roared like a dragon, and its might overwhelmed the heavens and earth.
Ji Tianming’s face was filled with astonishment, and his eyes were filled with solemnity. As his crystal energy surged, his aura fluctuations actually rose to the peak of the Fifth Order.
Obviously, this fellow also knew breathing control techniques. The strength he had displayed earlier was the strength he had deliberately concealed.
Logically speaking, an evolver who could reach the peak of the Fifth Order was definitely someone who hadn’t gone through the slightest detour, had a certain amount of luck, and had to cultivate extremely hard before he could reach the peak of the Fifth Order.
This Ji Tianming was silent and had actually reached the peak of the Fifth Order. Obviously, it was not simple at all.
However, Yifan truly didn’t know much about Ji Tianming and the Ji Clan, which was a mysterious and ancient clan. In his previous life, Qingfeng City was even more mysterious than it was in his current life.
The Ji Clan in Qingfeng City was in a semi-secluded state. Apart from the famous Ice Emperor, Ji Ruoxue, and Yifan in his previous life, he knew almost nothing about the Ji Clan, an ancient clan.
The surname Ji was one of the eight ancient surnames of China, the surname of the Yellow Emperor, and also the surname of many dynasties. It had a history of nearly 5000 years, and its ancestor was the Yellow Emperor, the first human ancestor of the Chinese nation. Because the Yellow Emperor lived in Jishui for a long time, he took the surname Ji as his surname.
There were as many as 411 surnames given by the surname Ji, accounting for 82% of the 504 surnames given by the Hundred Clans before the apocalypse. There were countless surnames derived from these 411 surnames.
The surname Ji is actually the true “ancestor of all surnames” of China, representing the origin of the Chinese national surname to a certain extent.
With such a long history of surnames, they naturally had their own heritage, and even the heritage they possessed played an enormous role in the apocalypse.
After the apocalypse, the foundation that could still play a huge role sounded very mysterious, but after thinking about Hong Wenchang, it was clear that Xing Yi Fist could actually be considered a foundation.
The foundation of the Ji Clan was actually related to their ancestors, and that was the complete version of one of the three ancient mystical books, the Yellow Emperor Internal Classic.
That’s right, it’s the Yellow Emperor Internal Classic!
The Yellow Emperor Internal Classic, also known as the Internal Classic, is one of the earliest ancient books in China, and also the first of the four classics of traditional Chinese medicine. It is said to have been written by the Yellow Emperor, so it got its name.
This was a peerless medical book. Most importantly, this peerless book contained a fairly detailed theory of meridians and even countless theories of cultivation methods.
In addition, before the end of the world, the Ji Clan had been doing business in the pharmaceutical industry, so they had extensive medical knowledge.
In fact, many scholars of the Ji Clan were proficient in health preservation before the apocalypse, and most of them even practiced health preservation techniques.
After the apocalypse, under the confirmation of the two phases, the Ji Clan had already cultivated a cultivation technique with crystal power by relying on the Yellow Emperor’s Internal Classic, a miraculous book, in the early days of the apocalypse.
This was also the fundamental reason why the Ji Clan dominated Shuchuan and Ji Tianming was able to reach the peak of the Fifth Order at this time.
Seeing Ji Tianming’s longsword in hand and showing off his peak Tier 5 strength, Yifan was a little surprised, but he didn’t worry too much. He smiled and said, “Young Master Tian Ming, are you ready?”
Hearing this, Ji Tianming looked at Yifan, who was still empty-handed, and smiled indifferently, “I heard that Lord Rock King is skilled in saber techniques. Why? He looks down on people?”
Hearing this, Yifan did not reply. His right hand formed a saber, and the dark red crystal light on it was already condensed into substance, as if it was flashing with a sharp light.
Dong …!
The earth trembled and a muffled sound resounded throughout the world. Yifan raised his right hand and kicked his left foot. His body turned into a dark red flash as he slashed towards Ji Tianming.
“Whoosh!”
Quick! It was so overwhelming…!
Just as the earth trembled, Yifan appeared in front of Ji Tianming like a blink of an eye. His right arm was raised like a knife, and with ear-piercing beeps, he slashed down extremely tyrannically …!
“Seven Styles of Heavenly Rock-Rock Collapse Slash …!”
Ji Tianming’s reaction wasn’t unpleasant, but with Yifan’s SSS class speed advancing, he was still caught off guard. He could only raise his sword and block in front of him.
“Dang … Kacha …!”
Ji Tianming’s pupils shrank as the sound of metal striking rang out. The alloy sword in his hand instantly shattered the moment it came into contact with the saber in his hand.
Moreover, the other party’s terrifying hand blade was only blocked for an instant, and then it continued to slash down towards his left shoulder with a thick and sharp momentum.
Rapid, ferocious, and domineering. This was the Rock King’s first saber, and it was also the saber Ji Tianming was facing right now.
The long sword exploded. Facing this overbearing saber strike, Ji Tianming was caught off guard. Green light surrounded his hands, and his skin instantly turned dark brown.
Then, as he shouted in a low voice, he quickly crossed his arms and blocked the blade of his hand.
“The top horn of the Bucks …!”
“Kacha …!”
The saber slashed down, and the sound of bones shattering rang out. Ji Tianming’s arms held onto Yifan’s hand saber, but the moment his arms touched it, the bones were shattered by the frenzied trembling force of the hand saber.
His arms were obviously thicker than before, and his bones were probably swollen. If it wasn’t for the dark brown bark-like skin, they would have exploded on the spot.
Moreover, his body was still unable to withstand the terrifying force of this saber strike. He was already kneeling on one knee with his left leg. The hard ground of the Eight Trigrams Martial Arts Stage was caved in by him. This showed how domineering this saber strike was.
The bones on his forearms exploded, but Ji Tianming’s face was as heavy as water. His right leg shrank, and he wanted to quickly retreat.
However, Ji Tianming was thinking too much. This was not the end. Yifan’s blade was blocked without a pause. As he retracted his right arm, his left leg swept out like lightning. An extremely ferocious whip leg struck Ji Tianming’s head like a dark red bolt of lightning.
“Bang …!”
With a muffled sound, Ji Tianming almost instinctively surged with dark green crystalline power. He raised his right arm and blocked his ears, sending him flying like a broken sack.
“Bang!”
Ji Tianming flew dozens of meters away, his back facing the sky, his ears and nose bleeding. It could be said to be extremely miserable. Yifan retracted his legs and stood without pursuing him. It seemed that he wanted to give this brother-in-law a chance to show off from afar.
However, the spectators below were completely dumbfounded. Was the battle on the field really a battle between two peak Tier 5 evolvers?
Why did it look like a peak Fifth Order Evolution Realm cultivator was hitting a Third Order Evolution Realm cultivator?
Why do you have the feeling that adults are hitting children? Are these two really on the same level?
Isn’t the Rock King injured? Could this be the strength that the Rock King possessed when he was injured?
Was this Rock King really injured? This was too ferocious, too exaggerated, too terrifying! !
The peak Tier 5 Ji Tianming was as weak as a three-year-old child in the hands of the Rock King. He knelt on one knee after being slashed by the Rock King with a hand knife, and then swept dozens of meters away with a kick like sweeping garbage.
Are they really fighting, not acting?
In fact, all of the Tier 5 Advanced Evolution Realm cultivators present were extremely clear about this.
There wasn’t even the slightest bit of acting, and even the viciousness of the Rock King’s attack made one’s heart skip a beat.
That was his brother-in-law. When he fought, he was actually so fierce that he didn’t have the slightest bit of misgivings.
Under the gazes of everyone, he didn’t leave any face for the other party, as if it was because of his previous provocation, and because he didn’t like the lesson he taught him when he stood up at this time.
Furthermore, during the battle, the aura of crystalline power and the powerful fluctuations of crystalline power caused by the exchange of sabers between the two of them made them even more clear. That saber strike was not a joke, and not everyone could take it. If it was them, they might have been sliced into two pieces by this saber strike.
Since the apocalypse, apart from a few people from the Oriental Military Region who had seen the elegant manner in which the Rock King had attacked, almost none of the people from the other nine cities had seen the Rock King attacking.
In fact, none of the upper echelons of the four northern cities had personally witnessed the Rock King in battle.
Apart from Han Xiaoxuan, no one else in the nine cities had seen the Rock King attack with all his might.
Most of them had only seen the Storm Queen under the Rock King attack, and had used this to guess the strength of the Rock King.
Most of them had only heard of how powerful the Rock King’s combat strength was, and how tough his wrists were. They had never seen it with their own eyes.
But today, they saw him. They had thought that the Rock King would be very strong, but they had never thought that the Rock King would be so strong.
The number one person in China, Rock King Zhu Yifan, was indeed incomparably abnormal and inhuman.
In fact, seeing such a powerful Rock King, the originally ambitious fellow began to fear him again.
Seeing such a ferocious Rock King, Luo Yaqin felt a chill in her heart. At the same time, she looked helplessly at Fu Sheng beside her.
In fact, at this time, she could no longer find any words to describe her current mood.
As the saying goes, the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment.
Originally full of hope, when she saw such a powerful Rock King, her heart was filled with disappointment, helplessness, and unwillingness.
Even such an arrogant fellow like Lin Tian began to suspect that if the clan decided to become enemies with such a perverted fellow, would they really be able to win?
When the other nine cities saw the powerful Rock Queen, they began to think about how to deal with their relationship with Heavenly Rock City.
Compared to the apprehension of these fellows, all the people of Heavenly Rock City present felt incomparably honored when they looked at the upright figure in the arena.
Because that’s their city lord, their king, their faith…!
