Chapter 1791 Gaining Face For The Iron Pillar Mane Clan
The overseeing elder knew that Chang Fa was the weaker party in this fight and had only done what was asked of them: giving their all in a fight!
If anything, Chang Fa would have been the loser if Miu Ran had struck him a few more times. Everyone had seen that Miu Ran had the upper hand in the fight.
As soon as he had used his bloodline of the Agate Scale Drake, it had only become a one sided fight.
What Chang Fa had done was just a last ditch effort to fight.
And this time around, it had worked albeit at the cost of great injuries to his opponent.
The audience knew the situation was concerning and didn"t shout like before. Instead, they were all discussing in hushed voices.
They were talking about the same thing, Chang Fa and the skill he had demonstrated at the end.
"This Chang Fa did something unbelievable."
"I know right, he actually injured Miu Ran who had the bloodline of an Agate Scale Drake. That should have made his body really tough, and yet Chang Fa"s hair was able to twist his tough limbs and body apart."
"Chang Fa was truly blood thirsty this time."
"I wouldn"t say that exactly. If anything, he did what was expected of him."
"Indeed. Could you ever think of holding back against a strong opponent that was close to killing you?"
"No… I would use all my trump cards to survive."
"Exactly. It just so happens that Chang Fa"s trump card was too strong."
"Though his technique… the Iron Pillar Mane Arts seems to be stronger than I thought."
"Yeah, at first I thought they were just some eccentric techniques. Who knew they would be this strong?"
"To literally twist and rip apart an immortal with a drake"s bloodline like that… His clan is really low-key."
"Looks like we"ll have to look into Iron Pillar Mane Clan."
Unknown to Chang Fa, he had managed to accomplish what he had come here for: to raise the reputation of his clan.
And with a little a.s.sistance from Lin Mu, not only had he done that but also managed to earn himself a fearsome reputation.
Over a million immortals had been watching the fight since it was the only match of the cycle left. Each and every one of them had seen Chang Fa twist apart Miu Ran.
The mere memory of it caused gooseb.u.mps to spread on the backs and necks of the weak-hearted.
After all, even among the immortals, there were many that hadn"t really seen gory injuries before.
Even if they had faced death and killed others, it was often clean and honorable fights. The injuries from them might be deadly, but didn"t have effects like this.
What terrified them, even more, was the fact that rather than dying, Miu Ran had survived it!
He would now have to bear all the pain and suffering from his injuries.
And from what the healers spoke, the people knew that it didn"t really bid well for Miu Ran. Deep down they knew that while Miu Ran might survive this, he might not be in a good condition after it.
Everyone heard that Miu Ran"s Governing Meridian was severed. It was an injury that no cultivator wished to suffer as it would mean that their ability to use Qi would basically be reduced by over 50%.
The governing meridian was very important, as it connected to several other meridians that spread around the body. It was also this meridian that directly connected to the Dantian, carrying the Qi through it. With it broken, the flow of Qi would be highly obstructed.
Restoring the Governing Meridian was possible, but the long term injuries sustained from it would continue to linger. Even if it was repaired, there was no guarantee Miu Ran would be able to use his Immortal Qi to the same level as before.
He would have to resort to rare and expensive healing medicines to fix this.
His limbs were the least of his injuries. After all regrowing limbs was still possible and in the case of Miu Ran, they weren"t even severed. A Mid-Quality Flesh restoration pill and Bone Mending Pill would return them to their natural condition.
But the rest of the man"s injuries were too hard to fix.
The temple of the four guardian beasts had all the means to do it of course, but the question whether they would fully do it was an interesting one.
Lin Mu and his companions who watched it all happen were stunned too.
"I was indeed not mistaken. Chang Fa"s strength and potential are good." Lin Mu finally spoke after having watched it all.
"Was that… your doing Brother Mu Lin?" Ming Dandan and Ming Aolian contacted Lin Mu.
"I did a.s.sist Chang Fa, but it had nothing to do with his final attack. That was all Chang Fa"s own strength." Lin Mu replied.
Hearing that, Luo Liqin and Lu Xu couldn"t help but rethink the eccentric man"s image in their minds.
"Still, would this be fine for Chang Fa?" Ming Dandan couldn"t help but ask.
"He hasn"t broken any rules, so he should be totally fine." Luo Liqin answered.
"But aren"t Miu Ran"s injuries a little too severe?" Ming Aolian asked next. "The power behind him might take offense to this, too."
"That"s useless. The moment one decides to partic.i.p.ate in the Tournament of the Four Guardian beasts, one knows what they could potentially be facing. We all have done the same." Lu Xu replied. "If Miu Ran"s clan takes offense to it, they wouldn"t be able to blame Chang Fa. Rather than him, the actual target of the blame would have to be the temple who failed in teleporting Miu Ran before it reached this level." He explained.
"Regardless of what the consequences might be, Chang Fa and his clan"s name would now be known all across the continent and even beyond it." Luo Liqin stated. "Powers from all over the world have witnessed this. Fear is a lot stronger in spreading one"s reputation than valor after all. He has earned face for his clan."
