Chapter 155: To block this move, there’s no need to use hands at all!

At this moment…

Looking at the eight guardian divine beasts surrounding him, roaring and lunging at him with bared fangs and claws…

Li He furrowed his brows slightly.

In an instant, Li He casually clenched his hand in the void and waved it forward!

Instantly, specks of light mixed with grayish-white and wisps of golden radiance formed dozens of overlapping barriers around Li He!

…

At this moment, Li He looked at the surrounding barriers, clapped his hands in satisfaction, and gazed at the eight guardian divine beasts rushing toward him, his eyes gradually carrying a hint of provocation…

At the same time…

The Earth Rock Bear, leading the charge, broke away from its human-like transformation the moment it approached Li He, reverting back to its true form!

The hundreds-of-zhang-large Earth Rock Bear appeared in the sky of the tenth layer Small World…

Its two enormous palms, resembling cattail leaf fans, slammed fiercely toward Li He!

In a flash…

Li He's location was enveloped by a giant shadow!

…

A powerful airflow rushed straight toward Li He!

The surging airflow converged into gusts of wind, violently blowing away the distant observing Monkey Head and forcefully pushing it down toward the ground below!

Disregarding the screams of the Monkey Head in the distance, Li He watched as the sky-covering giant palms, carrying a sound of piercing the air and the faint momentum to crush everything, slowly closed in on him.

Li He smiled slightly, turned his head, and smiled at Baicao, saying: "Baicao, guess how many fingers I need to withstand this strike from the Earth Rock Bear?"

…

Baicao was slightly stunned upon hearing Li He's words, and after a moment of contemplation, it said: "I guess?

Although this attack doesn't feel very strong, it can't be called weak either, but it has nothing to do with being powerful.

For Master, it should belong to the relatively weak category.

But no matter how weak it is, overall, this Earth Rock Bear is still an Ascension Realm divine beast!

Facing a full-strength strike from an Ascension Realm divine beast, although it's indeed not strong, no matter what, Master is merely a Qi Gathering Realm Cultivator.

Just a bit stronger than ordinary Qi Gathering Realm Cultivators.

So, all in all, to sum it up.

Facing a full-strength strike from such an Ascension Realm divine beast.

Master should use a full finger to completely defend against this strike!"

…

After listening to Baicao's words, Li He chuckled softly: "Are you sure I can completely defend against it using just one finger?"

Just as Baicao was thinking and timidly about to say how about two fingers…

Boom!!!!!!!!!!

The Earth Rock Bear's palms slammed shut together, trapping Li He and Baicao beside him!

Seeing the Earth Rock Bear's attack land solidly on Li He, the Linghua Blue Bird was overjoyed.

It said from afar with concern: "This… this… this…

Saint, you are still a bit too careless; we can understand that you have little practical combat experience.

But you didn't have to completely refuse to dodge!

Taking the Earth Rock Bear's strike so solidly, you should be fine, right!"

As the Linghua Blue Bird's voice echoed around,

the observing divine beasts and the Dragon standing aside suddenly reacted: "Holy crap!

Saint!

Brother Yan! Let go quickly! This is the Saint! Not your mortal enemy!"

Listening to the Dragon's roar, the Earth Rock Bear also suddenly reacted at this moment: "Holy crap!

Saint!"

…

As the Earth Rock Bear's frightened voice sounded, it quickly pulled its hands apart!

Along with rapid breathing, the Earth Rock Bear's chest heaved up and down.

While moving its hands, cold sweat continuously dripped down the Earth Rock Bear's face!

"Heaven bless us!

Saint, you must be fine!

You must be fine!"

As the Earth Rock Bear's hands slowly loosened,

accompanied by everyone's nervous gazes, a grayish-white ball of light emerged from within…

Aside from that, all traces of Li He and Baicao in the Earth Rock Bear's palms had completely vanished.

Seeing this scene, the eyes of all the guardian divine beasts widened slightly before looking up at the grayish-white ball of light suddenly flying out from the Earth Rock Bear's palm.

Looking at the suddenly appearing grayish-white ball of light, everyone trembled in their hearts!

…

At this moment, the Dragon nearby boldly guessed: "The Saint has completely disappeared from the Earth Rock Bear's palm, yet this ball of light has inexplicably appeared in the Earth Rock Bear's palm.

Could it be?"

Just as the Dragon voiced the doubt in its heart,

the grayish-white ball of light in mid-air trembled and then burst apart,

revealing Li He, who was standing in place stretching leisurely, and Baicao, who was dumbfounded beside him.

At this moment, Li He looked around, glanced at the shocked Baicao beside him, and said slowly: "How is it, Baicao?

Did you see clearly how many fingers I used?"

Hearing Li He's voice, Baicao suddenly didn't know how to answer.

Because Baicao, having witnessed all of this, had indeed seen how many fingers Li He used.

That was… not using any fingers at all; Li He simply waved his hand slightly, and a cluster of grayish-white spiritual light enveloped both Li He and itself…

…

As the Earth Rock Bear's palms solidly slammed together, bringing both of them down with a fierce impact!

At that time, apart from feeling pitch black all around, it didn't feel any trace of being attacked at all!

Thinking of this, Baicao couldn't help but complain: "What can one say about this?

I originally thought that defending against it with one finger was already Master's limit.

Who would have thought that Master wouldn't use hands at all, and solely relied on a shield condensed from its own Qi,

to easily and completely unharmed take the Earth Rock Bear's full-strength strike!"
