Chapter 779: Chapter 447 Sun Shield
...
If Yan Xiaobao had tried the same method as Xiao Ning, he would undoubtedly have risked his life. But now, he had the time to completely heal, and he was stronger than ever.
Xiao Ning’s nickname was the Sun Shield. His entire combat style was centered on defense and power. He could use martial power to protect his body and create external shields for both defense and offense while utilizing these protective forces.
Yan Xiaobao knew about Xiao Ning and the other two Saints because he had received information about all the Saints of the Sun Kingdom from Gao Yan. Yet, even knowing this, he hadn’t expected Xiao Ning’s defense to be so astounding.
The two opponents forced their energies to their maximum strength and unleashed them. Even so, only a few cracks appeared on the shield protecting Yan Xiaobao. The young man was no longer worried about what might happen and sat down to gradually let Lan Feng’s power merge entirely with him. Lan Feng allowed him complete control over the strength of a Holy Name Expert.
It wasn’t long before his body brimmed with energy, achieving fusion with the power. He now had the full capacity to stand alongside any Saint.
Indeed, when Lan Feng forcibly rebirthed Yan Xiaobao into his old world, he had lost some cultivation base. However, although Yan Xiaobao hadn’t had the chance to confront Wan Qiao, none of the Saints who had entered the graveyard matched Lan Feng. Unknown figures such as Wan Qiao or General Frozen were equally formidable. All these individuals were considered average Saints, but among them, Lan Feng was undeniably the strongest.
When Hui Yu felt the eruption of energy within his body, he smiled. As he tried to gain full control of his inner power, he slowly stood and stretched his body.
"I haven’t released my strength in a while," Yan Xiaobao said, not overtly complaining, but everyone heard his words. They caused shock and a trace of fear even in the hearts of the two Saints. Even Xiao Ning felt slightly concerned about how this young King could hide his power so thoroughly. To deceive them entirely, he had to be extraordinarily strong.
Although Xiao Ning was worried, he also felt secretly pleased. Before fully understanding his own strength, he had always stayed close to this powerful man. Because of this, he transformed himself into an ally. Conversely, the two opponents weren’t so fortunate. Their initial plans to easily overpower the experts and seize their treasures were no longer an option.
With a roar, the two withdrew without causing additional energy ripples. It was evident they no longer wished to fight against Yan Xiaobao. Watching the two, Yan Xiaobao hesitated over whether he should end the battle and let them escape.
Releasing the tiger back to the mountains wasn’t his style; however, fighting against those who had already surrendered wasn’t fitting either. Even though they had once battled, it was unlikely they would destroy each other for no reason. Yan Xiaobao decided to let them go. After all, unless absolutely necessary, he preferred to conserve Lan Feng’s power for as long as possible. Lan Feng was his hidden strength, something he truly wished to preserve.
Seeing the two Saints retreat, Xiao Ning withdrew his shields as well. Soon, the two sides split. Yan Xiaobao and Xiao Ning moved to the corner where Xiao Ning had previously sat, while the other two Saints went to another part of the room and unpacked all the storage stones they had taken from lower-level cultivators.
Xiao Ning hadn’t stolen any treasures; however, observing the mighty cultivator Yan Xiaobao, he understood that everything Yan Xiaobao had approached, he had taken with overwhelming strength—just as Yan Xiaobao had done. A while later, Yan Xiaobao and Xiao Ning examined the various items they had acquired from the graveyard thus far.
Yan Xiaobao emptied all the pills from his storage stone, categorizing them by type. He had gathered a handful of golden pills, half a handful of purple pills, a dozen shiny white pills resembling pearls, and a significant collection of red pills.
Considering this, Hui Yu wondered whether he should try consuming one of the pills to see their effects, though he was somewhat worried about what might happen if he did. Long ago, he had learned not to eat unknown pills without understanding their purpose.
"You fool. There aren’t any harmful drugs in our world," Lan Feng corrected him in a self-satisfied tone. "If there is a pill, it’s medicine designed to enhance your power, making you extremely strong, but it may weaken you for a time afterward." As Hui Yu’s eyes gleamed excitedly at the pills, the bird continued.
"The energy in the white pills is cold, so they can only be Yin Energy-enhancing pills." As he gazed at the other pills, Lan Feng added excitedly, "I’m not sure what the others do, but they should benefit you. Just try using them, and we’ll see what happens." Lan Feng urged him on. With a sigh, Yan Xiaobao had little choice but to try them one by one. After all, Saints endured considerable waits before achieving breakthroughs to reach the Gate of Heaven. Clearly, this time was best spent improving his personal strength, so he wouldn’t have to overly rely on the proud bird’s individual power.
When he picked up a golden pill, Yan Xiaobao still hesitated. He held a handful of such pills and could sense strong energy waves emanating from them. Yan Xiaobao swallowed hard and let out a deep sigh. "Here goes," he muttered as he stuffed the golden pill into his mouth.
