503: knock off

But so what if he realized it? If he wasn't an opponent, he simply wasn't an opponent.

In this world, the hardest gap to bridge is the gap in absolute strength.

This is something no amount of scheming, tactics, or techniques can make up for.

"Freezing Cold Sky!"

As soon as Han Yan made his move, he unleashed a signature martial technique of the Han Clan.

Its power was astonishing; if spread out, it could instantly freeze everything within thousands of light-years.

But at this moment, it was condensed into a single stream, ruthlessly striking toward Chen De.

Yet this move was easily blocked by Chen De's Supreme Holy Mother Protective Armor.

Following up, Chen De took the opportunity to unleash the Virtue-Smile Flower-Plucking Finger, and instantly, countless strands of eerie, dark red energy mingled with the sounds of wailing ghosts and howling wolves, condensed into a demonic finger that pressed down toward Han Yan.

"Nine Cold Forbidden Ruins!"

As the target of Chen De's move, Han Yan intuitively felt the sinister and eerie nature of that finger.

In particular, the Slaughter Law Profundity attached to it was the key to its thorniness.

Therefore, Han Yan finally ceased holding back and unleashed his trump card.

The Nine Cold Forbidden Ruins was not a domain, but it was better than a domain.

As an expert of the Immortal Law Realm, Han Yan also possessed his own domain.

But he had his own deep reasons for using this move; it used his Inner World as its core, fully mobilizing the power within.

The resulting space, similar to a domain, was incomparably more powerful.

However, the moment the special space he created made contact with Chen De's finger, it began to fall apart in the blink of an eye, shattering into fragments at high speed and splashing in all directions.

Even the smallest fragment was enough to freeze thousands of star systems, plunging them into eternal icy stasis.

And Chen De's finger, after shattering Han Yan's Nine Cold Forbidden Ruins, was not yet fully exhausted.

Roughly half of the finger remained, pointing toward Han Yan's body.

"Extreme Cold Frost Silence!"

Facing the remaining half-finger, Han Yan once again unleashed a martial technique to break it.

But his expression grew increasingly ugly, because after just a few exchanges, he already understood that his opponent's strength far exceeded his own.

Moreover, he had just tested it, and the other party had absolutely no intention of talking; they only wanted him dead.

Winning was something Han Yan could no longer do.

So, at this moment, what he was thinking was: run, he had to find an opportunity to run as soon as possible.

This battle was meaningless, and continuing it would only result in his injuries becoming increasingly severe.

Since he couldn't win and there was no benefit, Han Yan had absolutely no desire to continue fighting.

As for the other aliens, or even Han Tian of his own Han Clan, they could be abandoned if necessary.

At worst, he would see if there was a chance to take them with him when he left later.

If not, then it was just his own bad luck.

In the brief interval between Han Yan blocking Chen De's Virtue-Smile Flower-Plucking Finger with two moves, Chen De's next attack had already arrived.

Sacred Protection My Heart Seal!

Before Han Yan, a massive blood-colored seal had already appeared, billowing with black energy.

If ordinary people saw it, or perhaps some naive children, they might naively think that the owner of the blood-colored seal was the villain, and Han Yan below was the hero.

In fact, that was not the case; the appearance of the Sacred Protection My Heart Seal was something Chen De had intentionally crafted.

Its purpose was to tell everyone that one should not judge a person by their appearance, nor measure talent by their looks.

One must remember not to judge a person's goodness or badness based on their appearance; that would be too deliberate.

As the Supreme Holy Mother, Chen De was determined to lead by example, transforming all of his skills into their current appearance.

The goal was to educate all living beings, so they would not forget this principle and would constantly learn.

Although Chen De didn't know how effective it was, he would persist, even if he were misunderstood, he would keep on going.

This seal was incomparably heavy and was the condensation of Chen De's offensive power.

In terms of pure power, it was already his strongest move.

Great Ice Extermination Fist!

Facing this strike, Han Yan naturally could not sit and wait for death.

Even though he knew this strike was incredibly powerful, he still adopted a head-on strategy, throwing a punch toward that massive seal.

Using a point to break a surface, the effect of this move was indeed good, and a crack appeared at the spot of impact.

But before Han Yan could shatter it, the seal split apart on its own.

It transformed into countless small seals, smashing violently toward Han Yan in succession.

Individually, these small seals were not very powerful, but they all carried the incredibly dangerous power of the Slaughter Law Profundity.

If he didn't defend and let them strike him, his defenses would inevitably be broken, and he would be injured.

The change in moves was too fast; at the very beginning, Han Yan carelessly got hit by a few of them.

But it only grazed his skin, and in the blink of an eye, the wounds were as good as new.

It was just that Han Yan didn't notice the black granulation tissue that faintly appeared before the wounds healed.

Because Han Yan's attention was already completely focused on the countless small seals attacking him.

If all of them landed on him, he would likely be at least half-crippled, if not dead.

However, for some reason, his subsequent blocks would occasionally fail.

He could clearly realize that these were mistakes.

Furthermore, even after he realized it, such mistakes continued to occur many times.

For someone at the Immortal Law Realm Second Transformation, this shouldn't have happened.

Han Yan immediately realized that these small seals constantly surging toward him were problematic.

They seemed to carry some kind of special energy field, exerting a constant influence on him.

Consequently, Han Yan didn't hesitate to use the Nine Cold Forbidden Ruins once more.

The fact that this move had just been shattered by Chen De had actually already caused damage to his Inner World.

And because of that, it had also caused considerable backlash to Han Yan himself.

Although using this move again could still result in it being shattered by Chen De, causing him to suffer further backlash, the situation was so dire that using it again was a last resort.

Sure enough, after using this move, the countless incoming small seals were instantly swept away.

However, the follow-up from his opponent that he had anticipated did not arrive. You must know, this was a great opportunity to heavily injure him.

Not only that, the opponent hadn't even attacked during the gap when he was dealing with the small seals; was that not a bit too strange?

At the same time, for some reason, Han Yan felt as if something in his mind was fading away.

When he came to his senses, Chen De's figure had completely disappeared from the scene.

This point inexplicably made Han Yan feel a trace of extreme wariness.

Stopping at the moment most suitable for attacking him—what did the opponent mean by this?

Could it be that he hadn't gone far?

Thus, Han Yan carefully searched the surrounding area of countless light-years.

Most importantly, the areas within close proximity to this location.

However, he discovered nothing.

It was just that in his eyes, a person's reflection seemed to appear.
