Chapter 296 - 238: Desperate Situation 3

"He was ultimately too arrogant and made the wrong choice. To attack so rashly without knowing his opponent’s abilities... each of the Four Directions Lords of the Neon Far East Army possesses terrifying power."

"The power of the ’Flower Seed’... I’m afraid no one in all of Jinmen can compare with this man’s Physical Ability."

"..."

The consuls of the Five Nations conversed in low voices.

They had conducted detailed investigations into the Neon Nation’s forces. The Northern Lord, An Yuan Wuyan, was one of their primary subjects, and they had a detailed file on him.

His Divine Transformation ability, codenamed "Flower Seed," caused several of his internal organs to mutate. He gained a potent plant-like power, allowing him to compress his body’s life essence and form "seeds." These seeds possessed extraordinarily powerful abilities.

They could drastically enhance bodily functions and activity, significantly boost regeneration, and even affect a Martial Artist’s Spirit.

The only drawback, perhaps, was that An Yuan Wuyan condensed these seeds rather slowly. Once they were used, replenishing them was no easy task.

However, this was An Yuan Wuyan’s first time taking action in Jinmen. He was in peak condition, with a truly staggering number of seeds in his body. This meant that at this very moment, his Physical Ability, explosive power, and endurance had all reached a terrifying level.

In an all-out burst, even Zhao Xuanqi, with all his Seventy-Two Earthly Fiend Acupoints open and using the Dragon Gate Secret Technique, could not compare.

GASP!!

Suddenly, the Five Nations consuls exclaimed softly, having apparently witnessed a sudden turn of events.

Back on the battlefield over the sea, Zhao Xuanqi was locked in combat with An Yuan Wuyan. To An Yuan Wuyan’s shock, he found he was actually unable to defeat him in a short amount of time.

Zhao Xuanqi was achieving all this while resisting Furukawa Naoto’s spiritual influence. ’If his Spirit weren’t being restricted, I fear it would be no easy task for me to suppress him.’

’This young man is terrifying.’

’Still, it’s fine. To ensure a flawless victory, I made thorough preparations before the operation.’

’The victor will be decided shortly.’

SPLASH!!

Suddenly, the seawater in the distance erupted. From within the wreckage of a cargo ship, multiple Gang Blades shot out, instantly slicing the hull into innumerable fragments. Then, a figure leaped high and landed on the surface of the sea.

His chest was deeply sunken, and blood seeped from his eyes, ears, mouth, nose, and every pore on his body. His expression was utterly savage. And yet, despite all this, his body was unexpectedly radiating an immense Vitality, and his physical functions didn’t seem to have plummeted from his injuries.

This was another ability of the "Flower Seed."

An Yuan Wuyan’s Flower Seeds could not only affect him but could also be expelled from his body for others to use. However, once a seed left his body, it wouldn’t last long before it withered and lost its potency.

When consumed by others, these seeds could greatly stimulate bodily activity and boost metabolism. If several were taken at once while heavily injured, a person could even maintain their combat strength, though the burst of power would be brief and followed by a tremendous backlash.

Before the operation, as a precaution, An Yuan Wuyan had given East Mountain Good Horses and Furukawa Naoto ten Flower Seeds each, just in case.

Although Zhao Xuanqi had defeated East Mountain Good Horses, the power of the Flower Seed had allowed him to briefly recover most of his combat strength.

And just like that, the three-on-one siege was back.

Zhao Xuanqi appeared to be trapped in a desperate plight!
