Chapter 1331 Royal Guard(2)

"Ah! Yuan!" Huang Xiao Li covered her mouth with a shocked look on her face after witnessing Yuan’s arm exploding into a bloody mess.

Meanwhile, the audience cheered loudly for Royal Guard Basar.

"Hell yeah!"

"Kill him with your next punch!"

The audience rooted for his victory.

Yet, in the very next moment, just as the audience began to erupt in celebration, Yuan’s previously annihilated arm miraculously regenerated, emerging anew in pristine condition. The sudden recovery left onlookers in stunned silence, an awe-stricken hush settling over the gathering as they grappled with the astonishing spectacle before them.

"What in heaven’s name did he just do?! How did he recover from such an injury?!"

"There’s no way! He must’ve used some kind of medicine or treasure!"

"But we were all watching him! It’s impossible to do such a thing without getting caught before so many eyes! Even before His Majesty’s presence, too!"

"You never know. Humans always have tricks up their sleeves."

Royal Guard Basar did not think Yuan was cheating and asked, "Is that your physique?"

"Who knows." Yuan shrugged.

Given that his regeneration ability stemmed from the consumption of demon cores and was intrinsically tied to the unique attributes of his physique, one could technically categorize this remarkable capability as an extension of his physique.

"Hmph. No matter how many times you regenerate, it won’t help you defeat me." Royal Guard Basar remained calm despite Yuan’s godly healing abilities.

And without uttering another word, Royal Guard Basar launched yet another punch at Yuan.

Knowing that he couldn’t overpower Royal Guard Basar in his current state, Yuan swiftly sidestepped the attack, narrowly avoiding the strike. Then, seizing the opportune moment, he retaliated with a punch of his own.

His fist landed directly on Royal Guard Basar’s body, but he was only able to push Royal Guard Basar a few steps back and cause the area he punched to swell up a little.

"Heh." Royal Guard Basar scoffed at the damage he received, which quickly healed even without needing to use spiritual energy.

At this point, it appeared that Yuan was destined for defeat, as he seemed to lag behind his opponent in every conceivable aspect, and this thought was aligned by most of the audience.

However, there was still something that Yuan had yet to try.

Typically, activating more than one body tempering technique simultaneously was deemed impractical, as the strain imposed on the body and the issues of compatibility made it an untenable approach.

In Royal Guard Basar’s case, he was using a body tempering technique to further boost his own physique, which is the ideal method for most cultivators. However, not every physique seamlessly accommodated such techniques. In reality, the majority of physiques proved incompatible, yet the exception lay with most giants, who were inherently endowed with physiques conducive to the application of body tempering techniques.

This is what Royal Guard Basar meant by ’the difference between humans and giants’.

After taking a deep breath, Yuan activated Golden Mountain Body Refinement, something he’d learned during his previous trial.

In the ensuing moment, a delicate veil of golden aura enveloped Yuan’s form, resembling a translucent armor.

"What?" Royal Guard Basar furrowed his brow at the unexpected sight.

Like the majority of the audience, he had initially assumed that Yuan’s transformation was a manifestation of a body tempering technique. Regrettably, their assumptions proved to be misguided, for Yuan’s transformation was more intricately tied to his bloodline rather than any conventional technique.

"This feeling isn’t bad." Yuan was satisfied with the results.

Although Golden Mountain Body Refinement was only supposed to enhance his defensive capabilities, he could feel his strength surge as well.

"Hmph. Regardless of the tricks you may possess, they won’t aid you in defeating me," Royal Guard Basar declared with disdain. In an instant, he surged forward, delivering a barrage of fist thrusts aimed at Yuan.

Eager to gauge the extent of his newfound capabilities, Yuan opted not to evade the oncoming punches but instead confronted them head-on, testing the limits of his enhanced strength.

Dong!

The collision of their fists reverberated like the resounding beat of a war drum, echoing through the air with a palpable intensity.

Dong! Dong! Dong!

Several exchanges later, both Yuan and Royal Guard Basar took a step back.

While Yuan’s arms did not succumb to the explosive aftermath as they had before, the exchange did not leave them unscathed, and the impact resulted in some of his muscles and veins bursting.

Yet, Royal Guard Basar found himself in a slightly more dire state than Yuan. In addition to the bursting muscles and veins, his bones had shattered into hundreds of fragments under the immense force of the collision.

Royal Guard Basar gritted his teeth in frustration. He was slightly behind Yuan in terms of strength, but it wasn’t to the point where he would outright lose.

’Since I have the superior cultivation, I will win if I outlast him! I doubt he’ll be able to stay in that form for too long!’

Undeterred, Royal Guard Basar chose to stake everything on outlasting his opponent. Swiftly mending his injuries, he wasted no time launching another assault on Yuan.

Yuan immediately knew what Royal Guard Basar was thinking and decided to entertain him.

In the ensuing hours, Yuan and Royal Guard Basar engaged in an unrelenting exchange of punches, continuously obliterating their arms in the relentless confrontation.

’Why isn’t he tired yet? How does he still have the energy to sustain that form?’ Royal Guard Basar pondered nervously, sensing his own spiritual energy nearing its limit, while Yuan continued to exude boundless vitality.

’How does a Spirit King possess such an abundance of spiritual energy? And how can he persist in such a formidable state for such an extended duration?’ Royal Guard Basar gritted his teeth in frustration, grappling with the perplexity of the situation.

"You don’t look so good. Do you need a break?" Yuan suddenly asked.

"What...?" A look of disbelief painted Royal Guard Basar’s face, transforming swiftly into anger as he realized that Yuan had just mocked him.
