Chapter 2777: Intimidation
The seven Guardian Gods are up against five Human Clan warriors; in terms of numbers, the Guardian Gods do indeed hold a slight advantage.
Five Guardian Gods were forcefully holding back the four of the Supreme Dragon Emperor, while Su Yang was left to battle two Guardian Gods alone, one of which was the Heavenly Sect.
After all, the Heavenly Sect was a downgraded Strongest, and the title of number one below the Strongest was not unearned. Although defeated by Su Yang several times, his foundation remained solid, and his strength was only slightly inferior to Su Yang’s.
With the assistance of another Guardian God, the gap between the Heavenly Sect and Su Yang was compensated for. Together, the two soon gained the upper hand, and Su Yang found himself on the defensive.
Seeing this situation, the Heavenly Sect was overjoyed, laughing loudly: "Su, despite your scheming, how would it end any other way? Though only seven remain, it’s indeed effortful to kill you all. Still, our strength remains above yours, and ultimately, your fate is to be slain by us!"
Su Yang sneered: "Heavenly Sect, aren’t you celebrating a bit early? Since I could send away those three Guardian Gods, I can send more of those beside you, too. Hehe, Lord Heavenly Sect, I suggest you start planning your escape. If a few more of you are sent away soon, do you think you have any hope of survival?"
Upon hearing this, the Guardian Gods became somewhat uneasy. If Su Yang indeed sent more away, the ones remaining would be hard-pressed to escape their doom.
Moreover, those sent away shouldn’t expect survival either. Half of those sent away before were chased down and killed by Su Yang. That is, once scattered, they would surely be picked off one by one by Su Yang!
"Su, stop talking nonsense trying to intimidate us!" The Heavenly Sect shouted angrily: "Don’t think I don’t know, sending people away isn’t so easy. If it was, you would have done so already and wouldn’t be struggling against us!"
"Your nonsense is just to scare us into chaos. Hmph, Su, even if you could indeed send people away, you have no chance now. I’ve sealed this area with the power of the Heavenly Dao. Your Chaos Gap is useless within Heavenly Dao power!"
The previously uneasy Guardian Gods were now much calmer. This time, the Heavenly Sect spared no expense, unleashing a large amount of Heavenly Dao power to seal off this chaos. They really had no fear of falling into the Chaos Gap.
Previously, the number of Guardian Gods was too many, and the Jade Pendant only had limited Heavenly Dao power; the Heavenly Sect couldn’t protect them all.
Now there were only seven Guardian Gods left. Moreover, they held the absolute upper hand, and in such a situation, if the Heavenly Sect were stingy with the Heavenly Dao power, they would truly deserve to die.
Thus, this time, the Heavenly Sect was entirely committed, releasing Heavenly Dao power regardless of cost, to seize the opportunity and annihilate Su Yang and his companions to reclaim the Chaos Flower.
In truth, the Heavenly Sect didn’t realize that Su Yang’s previous words were just an intimidation tactic.
The Chaos Gaps accumulated along the way had already been exhausted, where else could Su Yang find more chaos gaps?
Besides, collecting Chaos Gaps was not without cost, which required consuming power, making it impossible to easily create so many chaos gaps.
Yet, Su Yang showed no sign of panic, only a cold smile: "Is that so? Heavenly Sect, are you so confident in the Heavenly Dao power?"
"It’s not my confidence in Heavenly Dao power, everyone knows how powerful Heavenly Dao power is!" The Heavenly Sect said haughtily: "Su, stop with the nonsense. Under Heavenly Dao power, we Guardian Gods have nothing to fear. Your tricks are meaningless to us!"
"Hehe..." Su Yang sneered: "Heavenly Dao power is indeed formidable, but it’s not without opponents. Heavenly Dao power, what happens when it meets Earth Principle power?"
Upon hearing this, the Guardian Gods were bewildered. Heavenly Dao power and Earth Principle power, two equivalent powers, completely equal.
"What do you mean?" The Heavenly Sect frowned: "What about Earth Principle power, barely able to contend with Heavenly Dao power? Don’t use Earth Principle to frighten us!"
"It wouldn’t frighten you..." Su Yang spoke leisurely: "If I use Earth Principle power against your Heavenly Dao power, what do you think the result would be?"
The Heavenly Sect’s face changed, then sneered: "Use Earth Principle power against Heavenly Dao power? Su, if you had such skill, you would’ve killed me last time; why let me escape? Besides, I’ve never heard of any Human Clan member controlling Earth Principle power, Su, you can’t possibly wield Earth Principle power. You’re saying this to scare us, trying to throw us into chaos, but I tell you, from now on, it’s impossible!"
"Whether or not I wield Earth Principle power isn’t something proven by mere words; let’s test it, shall we?" Su Yang smiled, suddenly striking at the Guardian God beside the Heavenly Sect.
"Get in there!" Su Yang shouted, both hands out as if to push the Guardian God backwards.
The Guardian God’s face changed, seeing Su Yang’s posture as if creating a Chaos Gap behind him, intending to use Earth Principle power to break through the Heavenly Dao power, pushing him into the Chaos Gap.
He knew well that once in this Chaos Gap, the Heavenly Sect would surely be no match for Su Yang. Those remaining Guardian Gods would perish, and he wouldn’t escape far; Su Yang would find and kill him!
Therefore, this Guardian God dared not retreat or evade, instead charging at Su Yang with all his strength.
He would rather endure Su Yang’s blow than be pushed into the Chaos Gap.
Although not Su Yang’s match, this hit would at most cause him minor injury. But once in the Chaos Gap, it would be fatal. The choice was evident, no need for consideration.
Seeing the Guardian God charge, Su Yang’s expression grew angry, as if his plan had been thwarted.
