Chapter 2676 - 33: A Draw!
"He wasn’t defeated in one move, did Bemond Senior show mercy? No, his moves felt like I couldn’t even withstand a single one. Is this Jia Yan truly that powerful?"
"Luckily, we didn’t provoke him, otherwise we’d definitely lose miserably. He can even neutralize the attack of a Middle-Stage Galactic Lifeform!"
A group of Early-stage Galaxy-level existences watched around the battlefield, completely convinced by Jia Yan.
They were still thinking of challenging him, but now seeing that he can fight against a higher-level being also cultivating here, they think, why bother?
Definitely wouldn’t win, no doubt about it.
Especially the leader of the Early-stage Galaxy-level existences, who always thought he was similar to Jia Yan, was now feeling one moment blue, another white, looking somewhat depressed.
Obviously, he wasn’t a match for Jia Yan either, which is why he felt that he had been nothing more than a jumping clown, constantly provoking Jia Yan earlier.
However, it wasn’t as if this Early-stage Galaxy-level being was in despair upon seeing Jia Yan’s prowess.
Including him, none of the other Early-stage Galaxy-level beings felt despair.
Because, apart from being genius creatures, they are primarily Galactic Level Strong Ones, and outside of the Galaxy level, they were already at the pinnacle of existence in this Milky Way. Even if they couldn’t beat someone, they could still flee at a distance. Confidence and composure of the strong still remain, so thoughts of despair wouldn’t arise.
However, in the future, who knows if an Early-stage Galaxy-level creature might strike them, causing such thoughts to emerge.
Puff!
In the interstellar zone, Jia Yan clashed once again with that Middle-Stage Galactic Lifeform, but this time he didn’t have a chance to apply his bluish defense on the other leg. Since his bluish defense was entirely on the previously used fighting leg, the defense of this leg was insufficient, showing signs of breaking.
Fortunately, he retreated proactively, preventing this awkward situation from occurring.
"Haha, your leg is about to break with just one hit. Your leg isn’t sturdy enough, huh? If it breaks, don’t go crying to the Queen."
Bemond laughed heartily, then closed in once more.
"Hehe, Senior Bemond, you’re joking. I, Jia Yan, am not that kind of person. However, Senior, if you lose to someone a level lower than you, don’t make excuses, like saying you were tired from just returning."
Jia Yan countered sarcastically, and as he spoke, he quickly realized that this Middle Stage Predecessor might say he lost due to being tired from his long journey back.
"I won’t say such a thing. Although the journey was tiring, I recovered quickly after returning to the Insect Clan’s Domain."
The other party was quite forthright about his condition being fine.
But this also indicated that he hadn’t considered the possibility of losing, for up till now, he hadn’t seen Jia Yan having the strength to defeat him.
Certainly, the creature in front of him was formidable.
As a top-notch Fighter, his insight was quite sharp.
After fighting for a while, he discovered several of Jia Yan’s combat talents but ultimately began to laugh out loud.
Because these talents lacked connection and didn’t develop into dangerous combat patterns.
Is the Subspace Talent impressive? Indeed it is, as it could even avoid his attacks.
Is his bluish defensive power impressive?
It is indeed potent. Fully engaging, it could compete head-on with him.
As for several other combat methods, they were refreshing to him.
However, so many eccentric combat methods, so many combat talents with potential for development, yet Jia Yan didn’t try to integrate them.
The Middle-Stage Galactic Lifeform couldn’t understand how much time Jia Yan spent on these little tricks; if it weren’t for Jia Yan’s decent talent, he presumed that the time dedicated to such matters would have slowed his progress speed by more than half.
This was the reason why he felt a bit amused upon seeing so many talents and combat methods of Jia Yan.
In a flash, they crossed paths.
Puff.
Jia Yan retreated into Subspace.
But the entire Subspace suddenly tightened.
Within Subspace, he was nearly immobilized, and the opponent used Brainwave Power; although it didn’t shatter Subspace, it caused the interior to distort and nearly solidify. If Jia Yan didn’t escape, he would surely be struck by the Brainwave Power.
In that case, he might as well escape from Subspace.
Buzz.
Jia Yan barely managed to fly out from the Subspace Interior.
However, what greeted him was a fist.
This fist, with immensely terrifying power, had just arrived, carrying an overwhelming momentum.
With a thunderous roar, it aimed at Jia Yan’s body.
"Evade it for me!"
In that instant, an earth-shattering explosion noise echoed in everyone’s ears.
The attack that was about to hit Jia Yan was directly deflected to the side by an explosion that came from nowhere.
The speed and power of the entire attack were completely neutralized by the explosion.
"What?"
The face of that Middle-Stage Galactic Lifeform suddenly changed color.
This move, Jia Yan hadn’t exposed it before.
In other words, Jia Yan had been holding back until now.
And this rear hand was indeed extremely terrifying, dissolving even his attack, and cleverly so, without harming Jia Yan.
Jia Yan, leveraging the power of the explosion, suddenly retreated.
He didn’t show any signs of abnormality.
This time, the explosion wasn’t due to any Meteor Explosion by Jia Yan.
Didn’t you notice? His previously near-broken leg was slightly gone.
Jia Yan actively tore a portion of his leg and then detonated it.
Thus, the explosive power, triggered by the matter-antimatter power of his limb, blasted more freely, completely nullifying the attack of a dignified Middle-Stage Galactic Lifeform.
The opponent, after a moment of shock, suddenly realized Jia Yan’s strange state.
"Hahaha, I was wondering what was going on. Jia Yan, you’re using your own body as an explosive? Though the explosion was impressive, the price you paid was part of your body. In a duel, I don’t want you left disabled. So wouldn’t you consider conceding?"
At this point, more than ten moves had already passed.
Facing the question, Jia Yan smiled slightly.
"Thank you for your concern, Senior Bemond. You needn’t worry about my body because it has always been under similar combat training. Since it isn’t disabled now, it certainly has its means of repair. But you, Senior, if I continue using this explosive method, don’t you wonder if you have any chance left?"
Jia Yan said this with a smile.
And this statement made Bemond slightly tremble.
Truth be told, after this explosion, even he felt a sense of crisis.
Though he didn’t believe Jia Yan wouldn’t have any side effects at all, surely, Jia Yan could use similar explosions again. If he can use them multiple times, he’d begin to doubt whether he could defeat Jia Yan without getting bombarded himself, or even potentially being embarrassed.
Indeed, he hadn’t considered the possibility of losing.
Because the difference in strength is still significant.
However, he also didn’t believe he could defeat Jia Yan, who possessed such combat methods that don’t seem to drain his energy.
"Uh... Jia Yan, how about we call it a draw?"
Bemond said unwillingly.
"Hahaha, sure, Senior Bemond. It seems we’ve become acquaintances through conflict. Let’s call it a draw, and I’ll return you your planet since I was in the wrong initially."
Jia Yan surprisingly agreed readily, laughed, and accepted it.
