Seen Through

At this sharp cry, a gray light suddenly flashed over Wu Tian's body.

His aura changed!

The aura of the Pangu True Form, which had only flashed by in a fleeting glimpse before, appeared once more within Pangu Hall, surging in all directions.

Xuan Ming, who had originally been visible only as an afterimage, was directly suppressed by that imposing aura. Her body reappeared in midair as she rapidly retreated backward.

Her cool, aloof face was filled with astonishment.

Yet beneath her eyes hid a trace of delight!

Wu Tian's body had not changed in any obvious way, yet it seemed shrouded in a faint phantom. Every inch of his flesh emitted a soft treasure-light...

"Boom!"

Wu Tian threw a punch at Xuan Ming.

It was a simple, brutal punch, yet it seemed to carry an unfathomably profound rhythm. It directly shattered layer upon layer of ice blades before Xuan Ming, breaking apart countless Laws of Xuan Ming...

Xuan Ming hurriedly crossed her arms before her chest.

"Bang!"

She was struck heavily in an instant!

Xuan Ming frantically mobilized her own power, but under the aura of the Pangu True Form, the Law of Xuan Ming seemed to be suppressed, unable to unleash its full strength...

Left with no other choice, Xuan Ming could only withstand it with her physical body.

Yet the immense force made both her arms ache with pain, and the countless bone spikes that had sprung forth in an instant were all shattered.

Only after retreating a great distance did Xuan Ming dissipate the force. Even so, her blood and qi churned, and even her own laws had become somewhat chaotic...

"Hm?"

Xuan Ming raised her head in surprise.

After that strike, Wu Tian did not pursue her. Instead, he stood in midair with his hands behind his back, looking utterly confident.

He gazed at her with a smiling expression!

"Sister Xuan Ming..."

"Now you know how formidable I am, right?"

Wu Tian spoke calmly.

By then, the gray light around him had already vanished, and the aura of the Pangu True Form had completely dispersed, as though what had just happened had been an illusion!

The Ancestral Witches were all filled with shock.

But at the same time, it also felt only natural...

Having cultivated a divine ability like the Pangu True Form, wasn't it perfectly normal for him to suppress Xuan Ming and produce the scene before their eyes?

At that moment, Wu Tian chuckled again and said:

"Sister Xuan Ming, I know you sparred with me before for my own good. So today, I'll only throw one punch—consider it leaving Sister Xuan Ming some face!"

"Let's end the sparring here for today..."

After saying that, he slightly raised his head and looked toward Xuan Ming.

Xuan Ming froze for a moment, then frowned slightly and scrutinized Wu Tian's body, her eyes filled with doubt...

The next moment, her expression abruptly changed!

"Heh..."

Xuan Ming let out a cold laugh.

At the same time, Houtu's soft laughter rang out as well!

Wu Tian immediately cried out inwardly:

It's over...

She saw through me!

Sure enough, after Xuan Ming gave a soft snort, she looked at Wu Tian with a half-smile and said:

"No need to save me face!"

"Come again... Haven't you always wanted to suppress me? Your strength has risen greatly today, so I'll give you that chance!"

Xuan Ming had originally been shocked by the might of Wu Tian's divine ability. But with a sweep of her gaze, she noticed the faint flush on his face and his slightly disordered aura...

Xuan Ming understood instantly.

—The Pangu True Form consumed an enormous amount of power!

Although Wu Tian's strength had surged dramatically, he could only wield it for a short time. Xuan Ming even felt that the strike just now had already been Wu Tian's limit.

She was both amused and annoyed.

That would have been one thing...

But this fellow actually wanted to puff out his cheeks and pretend to be fat, putting on such an empty show to bluff her.

"Again!"

Xuan Ming gave a light shout.

The moment her words fell.

She charged straight at Wu Tian!

Wu Tian's expression changed instantly. The calm composure on his face could no longer hold as he cried out and fled into the distance:

"Wait!"

"Listen to me first..."

Just as Xuan Ming had guessed.

The cost of the Pangu True Form was simply too great. It was not that he could only use it once, but if he forcibly continued to wield it, Wu Tian felt it would damage his foundation.

In that brief instant of drawing upon it.

Wu Tian had felt his vitality and blood burn wildly!

So after throwing just one punch.

Wu Tian hurriedly stopped. In a spar with Xuan Ming, there was simply no need for him to force it and injure his own foundation and origin.

He immediately wanted to play a little trick and put on an act for Xuan Ming...

But Xuan Ming simply refused to fall for it. Having seen through Wu Tian's little ploy, she seemed embarrassed and angered at once, paying no heed to his explanation.

Her attacks even grew heavier!

At once.

The entire Pangu Hall was filled with the sounds of Wu Tian's body crashing into Xuan Ming's fists, along with his unbroken cries of pain...

The ancestral witches looked at one another.

Dijiang, Zhu Jiuyin, Houtu, and the others who were sharp-minded had naturally seen through Wu Tian's little trick at a glance, just like Xuan Ming.

Seeing the two of them fight in a tangled brawl.

They immediately burst into laughter!

To them, a battle at this level was merely playfulness between their own people, so they all watched as though enjoying a spectacle.

Zhu Rong laughed loudly and said:

"So that's how it is!"

"Your Pangu True Form doesn't last long..."

Wu Tian was speechless inside upon hearing this.

What did he mean, it didn't last long?

That was the one thing a man could not stand hearing!

He immediately wanted to spend a little more and show them what he could do...

But Wu Tian still held himself back.

He merely shouted at Xuan Ming:

"Xuan Ming, if you don't stop now... I won't be polite anymore!"

As he spoke, the Primordial Measuring Sky Ruler appeared in his hand.

It immediately radiated boundless dark-yellow golden light, within which lingered a faint thread of purple. It looked incomparably divine and wondrous!

Though it was a supreme offensive treasure.

It carried not the slightest hint of savagery.

"This is the foremost innate merit offensive Spiritual Treasure. Its power is overwhelmingly great. If I wield it at full force and injure you, don't blame me..."

Wu Tian hurriedly said.

Xuan Ming naturally let out a cold snort!

Even though she could see the Primordial Measuring Sky Ruler's extraordinary nature, she showed no intention of yielding or fear...

Fortunately, Dijiang spoke at that moment.

"Enough!"

"Both of you, stop..."

Though Xuan Ming's nature was cold and withdrawn, she still listened to her elder brother Dijiang. She immediately withdrew her hand, and the battle between the two came to an end.

Once the two had both landed.

Xuan Ming returned to her usual cold aloofness, merely looking at Wu Tian with a sneer. Wu Tian, meanwhile, was battered black and blue. He hurriedly circulated the blood qi around his body, dissolving all his external injuries...

The Ancestral Witches all watched him with cheerful smiles.

At that moment, the obnoxious Zhu Rong said with a grin:

"Brother Wu Tian..."

"Originally, we were all worried that you were too indifferent by nature, disliked fighting, and always stayed in Pangu Hall to cultivate... You were starting not to seem like a member of the Witch Clan at all. Who would've thought you had such fire in your blood, daring to challenge Xuan Ming!"

"I admire you!"

As he spoke, he gave Wu Tian a thumbs-up.

He had learned that from Wu Tian, and now he was using it on Wu Tian himself...

Wu Tian rolled his eyes at this fun-loving Ancestral Witch.

He had thought his greatly increased strength would let him knock Xuan Ming to the ground. Instead, Xuan Ming had still given him a thorough beating, leaving Wu Tian feeling a little embarrassed.

However.

It seemed the Ancestral Witches did not care in the slightest!

As Ancestral Witches, they naturally had to constantly challenge the strong. If they only dared to strike at the weak, what kind of Ancestral Witches would they be?

Wu Tian's challenge against Xuan Ming this time around—

only made them like him even more!
