AST 766 – Donggong Taiqing, Dead
Qing Shui had instilled all of his hope on the unrestrained hammer strike. Just when the Thunder God touched Donggong Taiqing’s head, a strong burst of jade-green light flashed before his eyes.
Bang!
Qing Shui’s Thunder God abruptly bounced off from the flash of light surrounding Donggong Taiqing, who did not suffer any wounds from the impact. Qing Shui had already expected this outcome, but he still felt a little annoyed that he couldn’t kill his opponent right away.
Nonetheless, it wasn’t too difficult for Qing Shui to kill Donggong Taiqing. It was just that he didn’t want to reveal too much of his abilities immediately. As for the jade-green light from earlier, Qing Shui already knew that it was the deadly attack deflecting ability of the Jade-Armored Immortal Garb.
Donggong Taiqing had been given another chance at life because of the Jade-Armored Immortal Garb he was wearing. Although Donggong Taiqing knew he couldn’t have died from the hammer attack, he could still sense the presence of death from when the Thunder God had struck on his head. Thinking about it, he was instantly drenched in cold sweat.
The Jade-Armored Immortal Garb could deflect half of the damage taken, but that didn’t matter. The hammer strike could’ve still crushed his brain even if 80% of the damage had been deflected. Donggong Taiqing was beginning to feel a sudden rush of fear in his heart as he thought about how he would have certainly died from that hammer strike.
Qing Shui was still a bit shocked as he pondered his earlier attacks. The Ten Thousand Great Thunderbolt wasn’t able to paralyze his opponent, but the Shield Attack from the Violet Gold Divine Shield was able to stagger his opponent. Could it be that the Jade-Armored Immortal Garb was able to deflect the negative effects of an active skill, but not the negative effects of a passive skill?
He still couldn’t come up with a definitive answer, so he quickly forgot about it. There wasn’t any time to think of those kinds of things right now anyways. That the Shield Attack was able stagger his opponent successfully was truly good news. He also had a feeling that the Shield Attack from the Violet Gold Divine Shield and the Shield Attack technique within his body had a mutual connection. Perhaps it had something to do with the characteristics of the Violet Gold Divine Shield itself.
After Donggong Taiqing had been knocked backwards, a lot of people instantly realized that one of the abilities of the Jade-Armored Immortal Garb had been activated. After a moment had passed, a roar of cheers began to burst from the audience below.
“Haha, today will be interesting. This young fellow is indeed powerful. If Donggong Taiqing hadn’t been wearing the Jade-Armored Immortal Garb, he would have been dead by now.”
“True, true. This is quite exciting. I’m glad that I came to see this fight. If that strike can happen once, it can happen again. Let’s see how many times that Jade-Armored Immortal Garb can withstand Qing Shui’s deadly strikes.” A young lad with brown hair said smugly.
“That Jade-Armored Immortal Garb can only withstand a deadly attack once per day. If Donggong Taiqing doesn’t have any other perverse item to withstand another deadly attack, then he will definitely lose this fight.” The man who had spoken previously let out a cheerful laugh.
“Elder sister, is uncle winning?” Ye Yan turned to look at Ye Guyan and asked her a question. Her eyes were brimming with both hope and anxiety.
“He will win.”
Ye Guyan was still quite perplexed as she watched the fight. Qing Shui had been pushed around from the beginning of the fight, which obviously meant that Qing Shui had been a bit weaker than Donggong Taiqing. It was only after Donggong Taiqing’s speed had been greatly suppressed that Qing Shui had begun to switch to an offensive strategy. Donggong Taiqing had even staggered by the Shield Attack earlier…….
