CHAPTER 995: CHAPTER 249: GAINING THE DIVINE TECHNIQUE, SUMMER GOD’S WRATH (PART 2)

Chen Jie said: "I add two moves of the Seventeen Dragon Capturing Palms."

As he spoke, Chen Jie directly flung a thin booklet over, saying: "If you dare, add two moves as well."

Zhou Yu responded with laughter: "Hahaha, two moves, I’ll match you with three."

As Zhou Yu spoke, he directly threw out a booklet, which fell precisely on their betting table.

Chen Jie, seeing this, said: "Hehe, I only know two moves, if you add three, you will lose."

Zhou Yu replied: "Hehe, I will win, won’t lose. I just didn’t think you had so many good things on you, Chen Jiusi, you really aren’t an ordinary person."

Chen Jie looked at the confident Zhou Yu, also with a smile on his face, and said: "Hehe, very well, in that case, let’s settle victory or defeat, life or death!"

Zhou Yu said: "It should’ve been like this long ago!"

Saying this, the two once again rushed towards each other, this time, determining both victory and death.

In this world, there can only be one person favored by the Heavenly Mandate, the winner takes all, the loser is speechless, battle!

Roaring sounds...

The two simultaneously activated the Seventeen Dragon Capturing Palms, and soon, a Fire Dragon and a Wood Dragon could be seen weaving through the air, attacking and engaging each other.

At this moment, Chen Jie and Zhou Yu also closed in, engaging in hand-to-hand combat from close quarters.

They fought vigorously, neither yielding to the other.

With a loud boom, the two clashed palms, recoiling back, and at this time Zhou Yu made a feigned move towards Chen Jie, then the Zhu Rong behind him struck Chen Jie with a punch.

Meanwhile, the Rushou behind Chen Jie also swung a palm, and with another boom, the wood power and fire power of the two divine statues clashed together.

With a boom, Chen Jie and Zhou Yu were thrown back.

However, the two quickly stabilized themselves, immediately channeling their Gang Qi to nourish the two divine statues.

Then Rushou, mounted atop a green ox, waved his Willow Whip, and a moment later, the ground was filled with spring-like, vibrant sprouts, a giant Dragon Tree arose from nowhere.

It extended its branches to grasp Zhu Rong directly.

Zhu Rong, seeing this, raised his left hand, and then the snake he controlled in his left hand suddenly enlarged, spewing flames at the giant tree, whoosh...

The flames burned wildly, and in moments, the giant tree that Rushou had manifested was reduced to ashes.

Witnessing this, Zhou Yu laughed maniacally, saying: "Chen Jiusi, are you still not admitting defeat?"

"Your Spring God’s Fury is a Wood Element Technique, while my Summer God’s Anger is a Fire Element Technique, fire overcomes wood, you’re bound to lose!"

Chen Jie shook his head upon hearing this: "Zhou Yu, you’re too shallow, ’Four Seasons Celestial Phenomenon Technique’ would not be the renowned Human Emperor Technique if it was as simple as the mutual overcoming in the Five Elements!"

"Though fire can overcome wood, wood can also use fire as energy, the charred wood can be reborn in spring!"

Bang!

Just as Chen Jie finished speaking, the tree, charred by the snake’s fire, suddenly seemed to experience spring renewal, and branches shot upwards, binding the snake, while an enormous suction force came forth, treating the snake as an energy source, absorbing it madly.

Flames erupted from the snake’s body, only to be swiftly absorbed by the tree.

The tree absorbed the flames frantically, as the flames turned into energy, entering the tree’s body, and the charred branches began to sprout fresh buds, appearing so full of life.

Seeing this, Zhou Yu was furious and shouted: "Fire can overcome wood, how can you, mere Wood God, withstand my Fire God, burn it!"

Zhou Yu roared, and the snake’s flames burst forth wildly, while Chen Jie calmly absorbed the flames with the tree.

Even though the ’Four Seasons Celestial Phenomenon Technique’ adheres to the Five Elements’ rules, fire does overcome wood, but Zhou Yu’s Summer God’s Anger is flawed.

Normally, the Fire God Zhu Rong should wield a snake in each hand, representing his complete form.

However, Zhou Yu’s Zhu Rong only manifested the left hand, while the right didn’t appear, clearly indicating his Cultivation Technique has flaws.

If his technique were complete, with Zhu Rong wielding a snake in both hands, dealing with Rushou’s Dragon Tree would be easy, but with only one snake...

It could only be suppressed by the Dragon Tree.

It’s like a small flame encountering a tree branch full of moisture; the flame would be extinguished instantly.

While the Five Elements are mutually overcoming, this requires an equal magnitude, but if there’s a disparity in magnitude, the theory of mutual overcoming doesn’t hold.

Like trying to extinguish a raging fire that engulfed a whole house with a bottle cap full of water!

It’s entirely insufficient, it’s a matter of magnitude.

And that’s the current situation, Chen Jie’s Spring God’s Fury is complete, whereas Zhou Yu’s Summer God’s Anger is incomplete, missing one hand of Zhu Rong, thus its combat power is compromised.

Then the Dragon Tree directly controlled the snake, slowly absorbing it until it was reduced to a snakeskin.

Seeing this, Zhou Yu was shocked, looking at the Dragon Tree in disbelief: "How is this possible, how could it overcome fire, how could wood overcome fire!"

At this point, Zhou Yu was somewhat disheartened, and with the snake absorbed by the Dragon Tree, Zhou Yu felt a sharp pain in his chest and spat out a mouthful of blood.

Puft!

Seeing this, Chen Jie seized the opportunity, stepping directly with Thunderbolt Step, swiftly arriving at Zhou Yu’s side.

Without leaving any leeway, he swung his hand, unleashing the most powerful Seventeen Dragon Capturing Palms [Crossing the River] enhanced by Spring God’s Fury.

Roaring sounds...

A powerful dragon roar resounded as a Wood Dragon directly lunged towards Zhou Yu, who hurriedly activated Summer God’s Anger, also attempting to use Seventeen Dragon Capturing Palms.
