Chapter 1288 - 1388: Do You Understand?

Of course, Ye Tianfan didn't plan to blindly accept fate, because he believed he wasn't someone with particularly bad luck.

On the contrary, Ye Tianfan considered his luck to be absolutely peerless, otherwise why would he have obtained so many of Heaven and Earth's Ultimate Treasures, even those magical treasures unmatched by anyone?

This is precisely why Ye Tianfan's luck is exceptionally good. In fact, if considering only luck, it wouldn't be exaggerated to call Ye Tianfan the world's foremost luck expert. After all, his luck truly counts as unparalleled in the world; there's no one's luck that could compare to his.

However, Ye Tianfan wasn't concerned about these things, for he still had to deal with an incredibly powerful elder standing right in front of him!

The two figures, under the gaze of everyone, collided like meteors, scattering air ripples with a thunderous impact.

"Boom!"

With a loud crash, Ye Tianfan's Fire Lotus Sword was directly knocked away, and then blood streamed from the tiger's mouth of his hands!

And that unnamed elder, wielding a black heavy hammer, smashed through the air like a streak of black lightning, accompanied by a fierce gust strong enough to make the space around him tremble, and ruthlessly aimed at Ye Tianfan, who was unstable after the previous rebound. The force was so strong that it drove all the air out from under the hammer, creating a temporary vacuum, while the low sonic boom sounded as the black hammer clashed with the air.

The strong gusts pressed Ye Tianfan's clothes tightly against his skin, yet his face showed no change despite the cruel heavy hammer coming swiftly. Ye Tianfan remained calm and serene, looking faintly at the approaching black hammer, and when it was only half a foot away from his head, he deftly stepped to the left with a slight move.

As the black hammer crashed down, its impact on the ground was even more violent than before, and at the moment of its attack hitting the ground, Ye Tianfan clenched his bloody fists, ignited them in flames, and fiercely punched at the unknown elder!

And the unknown elder directly released the grip on his black giant hammer, seemingly casually swiping it to the side, yet he managed to deflect Ye Tianfan's punch to the ground.

Ye Tianfan's attack was thus directly neutralized, and even redirected to the ground. Observing the destruction he caused in comparison to the damage of the unknown elder, Ye Tianfan felt his efforts seemed insignificant, rendering him so small it was shocking.

Ye Tianfan hurriedly adjusted his mindset, determined not to be affected by this scene, then he firmly placed his palm on the ground and pushed up, standing back up, and with both hands slightly cupping, transformed them into claws. His arms shook, and sharp claws carried a cold and sharp force, fiercely swiping towards the unknown elder!

The unknown elder saw Ye Tianfan's move and tightly clenched the fingers of his right hand, with spiritual power rapidly condensing on his fist, punching out to collide with Ye Tianfan's fierce claws.

"Bang!"

A fist and a claw clashed fiercely, and a low sonic boom suddenly sounded at the point of contact, emitting a wave of energy that caused space to ripple and rapidly surged forth, finally spreading in all directions.

"Thunk, thunk..."

Ye Tianfan retreated hastily, holding his injured arm tightly, because the unknown elder's punch was brutal. Ye Tianfan could clearly feel several fingers were broken, although they were slowly recovering, the pain wasn't diminishing!

Ye Tianfan rubbed his fingers severely a few times before lifting his head with a heavy expression, gazing at the unnamed elder who hadn't retreated at all, lost in thought. Faced directly with the attack of the unknown elder, he didn't even budge an inch, remaining completely unharmed, his clothes not even disturbed, in stark contrast to his own situation. He retreated several steps and his fingers were fractured; it really couldn't be worse!

Ye Tianfan took a deep breath, his gaze fixed firmly on the unmoving unknown elder, understanding well that engaging with such a formidable opponent, whose combat experience was immensely rich, left him no chance for victory. And Ye Tianfan hadn't anticipated winning, because he knew it was impossible to achieve.

Moreover, Ye Tianfan felt that if the opponent truly put effort in, then he would have been eliminated in the first round, considering that he somewhat used tricks in the first round!

However, even though Ye Tianfan knew there was no clear way to deal with the unnamed elder, he wasn't willing to accept defeat. Ye Tianfan believed he had some ability to inflict damage on this unnamed elder, even if it meant not causing any damage, he definitely wouldn't let him have it easy.

Yet the reality was not so, the unnamed elder before him wasn't a typical adversary and wouldn't leave any openings. His ideas were likely in vain, but Ye Tianfan dared not blindly try anything else, fearing that this person might bear a grudge and later settle accounts!

Ye Tianfan forced a bitter smile in his heart, casting all unrealistic thoughts from his mind. He summoned back the Fire Lotus Sword, held it with both hands, and returned to confrontation. Honestly, though Ye Tianfan wanted to strike fiercely, without an opening there was no chance to make a move. But just as Ye Tianfan was lost in thought, he suddenly noticed the unknown elder seemed to be preparing something with his hands wandering in the airwatching everything around him.

Seeing this, Ye Tianfan suddenly moved, forcefully pushed the ground with a step back, and charged at the unnamed elder. At this time, Ye Tianfan's Fire Lotus Sword was also ready, breaking through the barriers of space like lightning, launching towards the unknown elder.

Ye Tianfan's sudden attack made the unknown elder's eyes slightly narrow, though his expression remained unchanged, for Ye Tianfan's unexpected attack still posed no threat to him.

Then the elder curved his palms into claw-like shapes and, instead of retreating, stepped fiercely forward, enveloping his right hand in a faint golden spiritual power, somewhat gathering his strength before attacking Ye Tianfan's Fire Lotus Sword head-on.
