Chapter 554: Double Defeat
Chapter 554: Double Defeat
Chen Chuan's fist struck out, but it contained little force.
Since the two had resorted to underhanded tactics, he wouldn't hold back either, and would repay them in kind.
In an instant, his fist collided with Chen Bitong's, but despite the seemingly powerful strike, no force was transmitted to his body.
As expected, Chen Bitong, who had taught him for so long, revealed his intentions with a simple movement of his left hand.
Moreover, Chen Bitong took advantage of the situation, feigning a solid, full-force strike, creating an extremely realistic illusion. The only thing that gave it away was the subtle change in force and the possible mental guidance. If not for Chen Chuan's clarity about the true situation, even he might have believed he had endured a full-force attack from Chen Bitong in that instant.
Yang Can and Guan Shangjing, witnessing this, had no doubts. Chen Bitong's brief hesitation meant the opportunity they had been waiting for had finally arrived.
Nie Guanshan wasted no time, his toes touching the ground, his body surging forward, and he punched towards Chen Bitong! Yang Can, too, flicked his fingers, and the long ropes floating in the air suddenly descended, enveloping both of them.
But the next moment, their attacks only pierced through the lingering afterimages, leaving the two men stunned.
Nie Guanshan realized the danger and quickly shifted into a defensive stance, retreating towards Yang Can to shield him. He knew that Yang Can was the most likely target for an attack at this moment.
But it was already too late.
Almost simultaneously with their attacks, Chen Bitong's afterimage appeared above Yang Can, and he smashed a fist towards his head.
Yang Can, with his experience in the Pioneer Team and numerous life-and-death crises, reacted swiftly. Sensing the danger, he increased the power of his Coiling Dragon Technique, and the front end of the coiling rope pulled his body towards the side, making it almost impossible to dodge.
This dodge saved his vital head, but the fist still landed on his shoulder.
Instantly, an unstoppable force penetrated his body, causing a series of explosions within his body and joints, even tearing open his skin.
At this moment, many parts of his body contorted unnaturally, indicating that even his bones and tissues had been damaged by the force. The power of that punch was evident.
In a one-on-one fight, this would have been the end.
At this critical juncture, Nie Guanshan turned and rushed back to Yang Can's side, attempting to pull Chen Bitong away from him.
However, with one less person in the fight, Chen Bitong had too much freedom. A shadow suddenly appeared behind him, backlit by the sky, and a kick came down.
Nie Guanshan couldn't distinguish the real from the fake, but the Worship Immortal Technique was both offensive and defensive, impervious to attacks. He was in the perfect defensive stance, so he seized the opportunity and unleashed his force, shattering the shadow above him with a double punch.
But another Chen Bitong appeared beside him, slapping him from the side. He trembled, then crouched, returning to the Worship Immortal stance to dissipate the incoming force.
Another Chen Bitong appeared on his other side, punching him in the waist. He spun his body, punching sideways, and with that strike, the force within his body pushed and turned, expelling the invading force.
More shadows appeared around him, punching and striking various parts of his body. He gathered his strength, striking back with all his might.
However, as more force entered his body, he couldn't expel it completely every time. The residual force accumulated, slowing his movements.
He gritted his teeth and endured, knowing the situation was dire but not pointless. At this moment, he was holding Chen Bitong back, buying time for Yang Can.
Recovery at their level was swift, and a little time could restore some fighting power. But without a turnaround, it was only a matter of time before he was defeated.
In theory, Chen Chuan could have helped him, but Chen Bitong's shadow appeared there too, seemingly blocking him.
He didn't understand what had happened. He didn't think there was a problem with his ritual but believed that Chen Bitong's skills were superior, seeing through their plan and turning it against them.
Unfortunately, after initiating the spiritual ritual, he needed to accumulate power again before he could guide Chen Chuan to defend him once more.
Under continuous attacks, his movements slowed, and it seemed like one or two more strikes would defeat him.
But just as Chen Bitong's shadow was about to deliver the decisive blow, a long rope suddenly wrapped around his arm, and the other end entangled Nie Guanshan's feet.
Chen Bitong seemed prepared for this, and with a powerful pull, he was dragged down from the sky. He flipped in mid-air, and as he landed, more ropes entangled him, binding half his body tightly.
Blood trickled from the corners of Yang Can's mouth as he lay on the ground, his face contorted in a sinister smile. "I've got you!" he exclaimed.
His coiling dragon technique was not merely an external manifestation of force; it also included mental aspects, with the key being the word 'coiling'.
As soon as his opponent's force entered his body, Yang Can's mind would firmly remember them.
From then on, no matter how many phantoms his opponent created or where they hid, his spirit could accurately locate them.
However, if he lost his strength, this ability alone would be useless, so he had another trick up his sleeve.
Those long ropes were not actual weapons but altered tissues that grew from his body after he cultivated the coiling dragon technique. They were a form of living organism, capable of moving on their own under the guidance of his spirit.
This was the most crucial part of his strategy! At this moment, as his spirit coiled around Chen Bitong, who was attacking Nie Guanshan at a critical moment, he seized the opportunity and entangled him.
These ropes were incredibly resilient; once entangled, it was impossible to break free for a while.
Not just for a while, but during the battle, even a slight pause could change the situation.
This was actually one of their backup plans because they initially didn't believe that the person sent by the Defense Department to cooperate with them could stop Chen Bitong. Those at the same level as them had their own tasks and couldn't afford to assist, so they had long prepared for the possibility that the additional help would be useless.
If the situation turned unfavorable, they could use this method to turn the tables.
However, this was just a precaution. If possible, they didn't want to be in such a dangerous situation; their priority was personal safety. But the battle had already reached this stage, and they were forced to use this move.
The result was favorable. After being entangled, Chen Bitong couldn't break free immediately, and the phantoms disappeared one by one.
In the 1619 book, there is no mistake!
The ropes entangled Chen Bitong, and Nie Guanshan had been waiting for this moment. With a loud shout, he mustered all his strength and slammed his fists towards Chen Bitong's chest.
There was no way to dodge this attack, and even Chen Bitong, if hit, would suffer severe injuries.
He had been on the verge of winning the battle, but now, it was turned around by the two of them. This was due to their teamwork, which had a much higher error tolerance than a single person.
At that moment, Chen Bitong's mind suddenly underwent a transformation. He lifted his head and saw his unentangled arm raised, blocking the attack.
A faint glow emanated from the outer layer of his arm.
Nie Guanshan's punch connected, but the surging force seemed to plunge into an abyss, without any response.
He was startled for a moment, then noticed the faintly flickering glow, and realized something. His eyes widened in shock.
For a moment, he couldn't counterattack; he tapped his feet and retreated. Judging by his movement, he wasn't planning to defend but was thinking of withdrawing from there directly.
Chen Bitong casually pulled, breaking all the resilient ropes entangled on his body. His figure flickered at his original position, and he reappeared in front of Nie Guanshan.
Nie Guanshan quickly assumed a worshipping immortal stance for defense, but the hand with the faint glow punched and struck his chest.
His back arched, and his entire body was sent flying, the first time he had been hit so hard since assuming the worshipping immortal stance that his toes left the ground.
This time, his stance couldn't withstand the penetration of the force, and the surging power instantly crashed into his body, stirring continuously in various places.
Chen Bitong took another step forward and elbowed him in the throat. A bone-cracking sound came from there, and continuous explosions echoed throughout his body.
His offense didn't stop; he struck his forehead with another palm. Nie Guanshan's eyes rolled back, and he was thrown backward, landing far away with no signs of life.
Yang Can slowly got up, and in this short moment, he had gradually healed some of his injuries. Without looking at Nie Guanshan, he stumbled and ran outside.
At that moment, gunshots rang out from above, and bullets rained down on him.
Even a third-limit fighter couldn't withstand such a barrage of bullets, but fortunately, he had protective gear and gloves. He raised his hand to shield his head and face, enduring the bullets as he ran outside.
Before he could get far, a figure appeared in front of him.
Terrified, he leaped to the side, but a hand reached out and struck his neck with a palm. String void force extended to his spine, causing a cracking sound from every vertebra.
He convulsed in midair and flew out over ten meters before falling to the ground, twisting into a limp heap.
