Seeing the demonic fist dashing towards him, Vale raised his eyebrows, and waved his hands to
summon his own weapons. Hundreds of lotus flowers fluttered in front of him, products of his own
martial skills.
This was far from their first fight. At one point, Vale was attacked by Zen's fists on Hell Mountain. At
that time Zen was just a half step into the nature level, but his fists helped even the odds. It was a
reckless move, though.
The little boy, a novice only a half-step into the nature level, had the nerve to start a fight with him! Vale
was stunned and bewildered. Why would Zen do such a thing? But still, he had to admit those fists
were a pretty impressive feat, especially for one so young.
When Zen was only half-step into the nature level, he could use life energy to throw those powerful
fists. Now that Zen stepped fully into the nature level, his life energy had been transformed into life
vitality. So his fists were bound to be more compact, heavier and more powerful!
Vale Wang was also a rare genius, and now he was the pride of the Wang Family. Not only was he a
personal disciple, he stood head and shoulders above those other personal disciples. How could it be
easy to fight him?
And he'd come up with a way to defend against Zen's Heavenly Ogre Fist.
The lotus flowers floating around him formed a triangle, and there was a big gap between any two of
the hundred lotus blossoms. With his power, he sent the triangle rushing headlong at Zen's fists.
The moment the fists met the lotus flowers, the phantoms began to devour the blossoms in the front
row. Immediately, the gorgeous red, lotus arrangement was transformed by the demonic life vitality, one
flower after another.
In fact, in the previous competition between Zen and Dick, Zen had shown off the devouring power of
his demonic life vitality. But, back then, most of the audience saw nothing out of the ordinary. Dick was
the only one who saw everything clearly.
Back then, Zen's demonic phantom was transformed into life vitality to consume the life vitality
powering Dick's Righteousness Song, making many people believe that they were using life vitality to
compete with each other.
Only Dick himself understood what was going on—the horrible power of Zen's demonic life vitality. The
truth was that Zen's life vitality was devouring his Righteousness Song. It took a bit to get through the
golden layer of righteousness on the surface. If it didn't have that protective layer, it would be
swallowed by Zen's demonic life vitality within a second!
The spectators weren't aware of how the demonic life vitality was used, but now they had a first-hand
education, as the red lotus flowers were devoured by the demonic black phantoms, turning them into
black, twisted versions of themselves.
"What? Black lotus flowers?" one disciple asked doubtfully.
"Those lotus flowers seem to be the same color as Zen's life vitality! Oh, no, Zen's controlling the lotus
flowers!" another disciple yelled anxiously.
"It's true! But what's really going on is that Zen's life vitality is devouring the lotus flowers. How did Zen
manage that?" his fellow disciple said. "Why his cultivation method so weird—Not only it can reshape
life vitality automatically after it is shattered, but also it can use his life vitality to devour other people's
life vitality. Anyone who has this kind of power is invincible." "That's incredible!" one more disciple
added, astonished.
"I thought Zen would suffer a crashing defeat when his rival was Vale, but now it seems that I jumped to
that conclusion too early! Still, Vale's technique is pretty solid. He knew Zen's life vitality could devour
his lotus flowers. You see the big gap between each lotus flower in the back of the arrangement? That
makes it hard for Zen to devour them all at once." One more senior disciple made his analysis. He was
obviously thrilled.
As the saying goes, laymen watch what's going on, while insiders figure out why. Some only saw the
lotus flowers changed color; some could see that Vale's lotus flowers were devoured by Zen's life
vitality while others figured out Vale had a way to deal with all this.
"If I hadn't studied your technique, I probably would have fallen to it. But now? A wise man learns from
his mistakes. A wiser man learns from others!" Vale said in a cold tone, gesturing at the lotus flowers in
front of him. At the same time, all the lotus flowers abruptly bloomed.
"Boom..."
When a single red lotus flower burst, the energy it generated was terrifying. Now that dozens of lotus
flowers burst at the same time, the turbulent red lotus fire immediately enveloped Zen's fist phantoms
and the black lotus flowers which had been devoured by his phantoms. The flames eagerly curled each
flower to ashes.
Detonating his own lotus flowers and Zen's fist phantoms together was also Vale's last ditch. He was
really out of options. Zen's black fist phantoms were too evil and too powerful. After Vale thought about
it for a bit, there was no other way to break through.
Now even after he had come up with a solution, Vale just managed to hold Zen to a draw.
If he hadn't done this, the life vitality contained in Zen's fist phantoms could have devoured all of his
lotus flowers. And if that happened, he would definitely be defeated!
"I've broken through your fists. Got any more tricks up your sleeves?" Vale said lightly, as more lotus
flowers started blooming next to him. Zen's cultivation method was a rare one. But Vale's knowledge of
the Lotus Scriptures was considerable, and he also had the advantage in the cultivation level. So, Vale
was very confident right now.
