I Have Medicine

Chapter 290 - An Indiscriminate Beating

Immediately following that, there were dozens upon dozens of palm strikes.

Both sides fully exerted themselves, and used this move to unleash a frenzied attack. Countless palms were smashed to pieces, and countless more solidified in the air. The vast and mighty power contained within seemed to topple mountains and overturn seas. It was incredibly astonishing!

Numerous spectators couldn’t help secretly pondering — If it was them, could they protect themselves under this kind of barrage? Following which, they shook their heads. They definitely couldn’t.

Among these people, there were also those who previously heard that Gongyi Tianheng had slaughtered many of the Third Prince’s subordinates. At the time, they only thought that this was a distortion of the truth. They didn’t take it seriously. But now, it looked like they had been narrow-minded.

A prodigy was a prodigy, and couldn’t be compared to normal people. Things that were impossible for ordinary people weren’t necessarily the case for prodigies.

The two’s clothing were ruined, but that Third Prince’s body flashed with rays of light, and he promptly put on a changpao. His properties and holdings were enormous, so he definitely wouldn’t have only one or two of such protective objects. Usually, he would simply bring it as a change of clothes, but when coming across this kind of huge fight like today, it was of great help to him.

After putting on this defensive clothing, the Third Prince promptly gained the advantage. Even though his consumption of profound qi increased somewhat, his body didn’t sustain injuries any longer, and the profound qi used to restore his body was reduced. As such, this was instead considered an equilibrium in terms of income and expenditure. However, on the other side of things, the wounds on Tianheng’s body continuously increased. In this brief period of time, there might not be any negative effects to be seen, but in the long-term, this would certainly cause him to lose under the hands of the Third Prince!

— Unless, Tianheng put on that black cloak right now.

It was just that the product grade of the black cloak was unknown, and it was very strange. Gu Zuo didn’t dare to make a hasty decision. Who knew if his big brother didn’t include it in his plans?

Hence, after thinking about it for a moment, Gu Zuo clenched his teeth and transmitted to Tianheng.

[Big brother, do you want the cloak?]

Originally, Tianheng could summon it by himself, but that was only when Gu Zuo’s consciousness was muddled. Otherwise, since Gu Zuo was the owner of the Divine Medicine Palace Hall, even if the guardian Tianheng wanted to personally take something out, it would be extremely difficult.

Tianheng’s reply came quickly.

[No need. Pass me the spear from the golden-level spirit weapons.]

Gu Zuo suddenly remembered.

In the Great Tomb of the Human King, they had once obtained many good things. Although the majority had been left behind in Qingyun Sect, several that were fit for his big brother’s use had been taken along by them.

Among which were two spears that his big brother was most fond of. The first one was a human-level spirit weapon, and the other was a golden-level spirit weapon. The human-level spirit weapon had already been damaged during the fight with the Third Prince before, so the only one he could use now was the golden-level spirit weapon.

Merely...

Worry abruptly rose within Gu Zuo’s heart.

Golden-level spirit weapons were suitable for martial artists at the Atomic Realm and above, but his big brother was only a peak Xiantian. How could he rouse such a spirit weapon? Even if he could rouse it, wouldn’t he be sucked dry of his qi energy&#k2026;

However, despite his worry, Gu Zuo still followed through with his actions because he trusted in Tianheng.

He swiftly transmitted his voice.

[Big brother, catch!]

Tianheng paused and made a grasping motion. And in his hand was the silvery-white spear that Gu Zuo had delivered with his thoughts!

Soon after, Tianheng’s body emitted a silver light. Once the silver light scattered, a set of light armor was draped over his body. The armor enveloped him from top to bottom.

Gu Zuo stared fixedly at his big brother.

He remembered that this light armor was originally the inner armor which was also obtained from the Great Tomb of the Human King. Although it wasn’t as good as that cloak, it’s own defensive capabilities weren’t lacking.

But while this thing’s product grade wasn’t low, it’s energy consumption was huge. Did it really not matter? Truly, his big brother was too adventurous...

In actuality, it really was just like this.

After Tianheng summoned the light armor and took the golden-level spirit weapon, he immediately sensed the emptiness in many of the bone pearls within his body. At this moment, a large portion of his true qi had been drawn out like the water of a river, constantly pouring out in torrents. He probably wouldn’t be able to persist for much longer before his bone pearls dried up completely — Amid all this, the true qi absorbed by the light armor was the larger share. Although he didn’t deliberately rouse the golden-level spirit weapon for its abilities and only relied on its resilience, he still had to input a bit of true qi at all times. The consumption was considerable.

Consequently, Tianheng needed to end the battle in the shortest time possible!

Hence, he thrusted out his spear. The spear tip was adorned with the reddish-gold power of the sun, and its blazing heat was hard to block! After this spear shot out, it seemed like space had been punctured. Even though the Third Prince had defensive clothing to protect himself, after coming into contact with this spear style fused with reddish-gold power, he also felt waves upon waves of suppression assaulting his senses.

The Third Prince didn’t dare to neglect anything.

He immediately took out another spirit weapon, and crossed blades with Tianheng’s silver spear.

In the blink of an eye, a crisp and brittle sound echoed out. Unexpectedly, a crack had appeared on that spirit weapon? That wasn’t right. Although his spirit weapon was only at the human-level, it had ample spirituality. If it collided with another spirit weapon at the same rank, it certainly wouldn’t lose out. This damaging encounter meant that the other party’s spirit weapon was —

The Third Prince’s complexion sank.

A golden-level spirit weapon!

At once, this line of words flashed through his mind!

If it came to golden-level spirit weapons, he, a prodigy of a magnificent empire, certainly didn’t lack one. However, that golden-level spirit weapon was being stored and raised within his qi ocean for uninterrupted tempering. It still wasn’t ready to be used.

But this insignificant fellow from the Peripheral Continents — Even if he was a prodigy, how could he have managed to get a golden-level spirit weapon?!

On the high terraces.

The corner of Prince Zhou’s mouth hooked into a grin: “Heh, he’s using a golden-level spirit weapon.”

Young Master Xin’s complexion stiffened slightly. After that, he softly shook his head: “Even though he has a golden-level spirit weapon, it hasn’t recognized a master. Any so-called usage is merely the borrowing of the spirit weapon’s characteristic advantages. He can’t display the spirit weapon’s true strength.”

Prince Zhou raised an eyebrow: “In this prince’s opinion, this is actually a clever way of handling things. This prince has seen that his true qi is rather formidable, and when poured into a human-level spirit weapon, his qi energy actually slowly corrodes it. This isn’t very suitable. Now that he has switched to a golden-level spirit weapon, although the weapon’s might is minimal after inputting his qi energy, his own strength isn’t small. Moreover, when the golden-level spirit weapon takes in his true qi, there isn’t any damage. Compared to him, that Third Zhao is truly living in the belly of a dog.”

Young Master Xin knew that Prince Zhou found the Third Prince displeasing to the eyes, so it was natural for Prince Zhou to praise Tianheng and belittle the Third Prince. At this time, Young Master Xin didn’t get involved, and only shook his fan. He looked towards the venue once more.

Back to the matter of that Third Prince. Although it was somewhat shocking when Tianheng suddenly put on the light armor and used a golden-level spirit weapon, the Third Prince was also a cool-headed person. Naturally, he could see the systemic problem. Right now, his rate of consumption was less than that of Tianheng. He only needed to maintain the deadlock between himself and the other party. Once Tianheng exhausted his true qi, he could easily catch and behead that guy! As for the slight disadvantage at this moment...he didn’t care about it.

But anything the Third Prince could think of, so too could Tianheng. The Third Prince wanted to watch him use up his energy. As such, Tianheng ignored his own rate of consumption in order to defeat the Third Prince as quickly as possible — If he could kill the Third Prince, that would be even better.

Therefore, the Third Prince utilized guarding positions and prioritized defense. Meanwhile, Tianheng suddenly leaped over. He raised that silver spear up high, and smashed it down over and over again!

Gu Zuo almost wanted to call out.

His big brother... This was, this was —

It could only been seen that Tianheng’s speed was extremely fast. As a Xiantian martial artist, he could walk through the air. The qi emissions within his body were long and continuous, so the period of air walking could be maintained for a very long time.

Thus, after that silver spear of his ruthlessly pounded down, one would see that the Third Prince, who was tightly protected by that defensive clothing, was being pelted with a rain of at least several dozen spear smashes!

Bang, bang, bang, bang!

This series of noises were immediately heard by numerous spectators, whose eyes and mouths hung open in a dumbfounded manner.

Ahead, the Third Prince had lost the key moment. Under Tianheng’s indiscriminate beating, he unexpectedly wasn’t able to find a suitable opportunity to counterattack! Every time he wanted to take action, just when he was about to assemble the qi energy, he was suddenly smashed by that silver spear. This interrupted his qi energy, and the chance to act also naturally disappeared.

Thus, at this time, within everyone’s view, the Third Prince completely lacked the strength to resist, and was directly and viciously beaten up by a prodigy who came from the Peripheral Continents... Although he didn’t receive any wounds from being hit and his defense was rather good, this kind of spectacle still made people feel apprehensive in their hearts. Their faces also heated up.

The Third Prince seemed to cut a very sorry figure.

Gu Zuo also felt helpless and exasperated.

This big brother of his was too...too unbridled! In any case, the guy was a prodigy-ranked prince of an empire. After vigorously beating down on the Third Prince from overhead, was Tianheng worried that the Third Prince didn’t hate him enough?

If this continued, then the hostility value was going to be even fuller. The Third Prince was going to beat Tianheng to death at all costs!

To be honest, Tianheng’s move was truly too unexpected. Let alone that the spectators were all rubbing their eyes and doubting if what they saw was real, even the two people on the tall terraces were beyond astonished.

Prince Zhou was originally holding a wine cup, and was drinking wine while watching the fight. At this time, he spat out a mouthful of wine and almost choked. Immediately following which, he couldn’t help slapping his leg, and boisterously laughed: “Hahaha! This Gongyi Tianheng sure has some guts!”

When he finished, he pointed at the Third Prince, and practically swayed back and forth as he smiled: “Xin! Hey, Xin! Doesn’t that Third Zhao look like a tortoise huddled inside his own shell? With his shell being pounded on, does that tortoise head still dare to come out? Haha, this truly makes this prince happy!”

Off to the side, Young Master Xin’s mouth twitched: “This time, I’m afraid that the Third Prince will fight with Gongyi Tianheng to his last breath. Such an insult cannot be wiped away without spilling blood.”

Prince Zhou sneered in disdain as he spoke: “Didn’t he himself take the initiative to challenge Gongyi Tianheng? His face was torn clean off, and it serves him right to suffer the consequences of his own actions. Who would stand to sympathize with him?!” Then, he curled his lips, “What’s more, you also can’t turn an enemy into a friend. How could it be after stepping on him again and again? Originally, this prince only felt that Gongyi Tianheng was just so, but today, I’ve seen that he has enough courage. If that Third Zhao dares to break the rules, I’ll invite an elder out to have a talk with him!”

Young Master Xin heard what was said, and his gaze faintly flickered.

He looked at the Third Prince on the venue, and slowly became pensive.

Down below, after the Third Prince was given a beatdown, although there weren’t any places that hurt too badly, that silver spear’s power was able to make his qi and blood churn. There was even a mouthful of heart’s blood blocked up in his chest. He only felt that he was burning from the inside out. Even when those numerous battle slaves died, never once did it make him feel so humiliated.

Of course, as far as Tianheng was concerned, this was intentional.

After all, there were limits to one’s realm. It wasn’t known how many trump cards the Third Prince had, and it wasn’t known how much power the defensive clothing possessed. His moves were nearly used up. If he wanted to prevail over the Third Prince, Tianheng needed to make him lose his cool first, and dig him out of that shell — He had long exhausted any attempts at rousing the golden-level spirit weapon’s capabilities, so he was better off straightforwardly relying on the weapon’s own material properties to pummel the Third Prince and hope to split open that defense. Once the Third Prince was enraged, when he wouldn’t hesitate to use everything to kill Tianheng, he would most likely make use of his trump cards due to his anger.

At this time, Tianheng would take advantage of the fact that his true qi wasn’t depleted yet, and perhaps, he could make a response. Otherwise, when even more of Tianheng’s true qi was used up, the Third Prince would utilize his trump cards again, and there would be absolutely nothing that Tianheng could do about it.

Sure enough, the Third Prince was infuriated. Around his dantian, rays of light shined brilliantly once more.

Over there, something like a copper mirror was released.
