Chapter 1105 Dead End?
Lu Dajiang had anticipated this scene in advance.
Lu Dajiang had even premeditated that, with his 17-star combat strength, facing Ding Sheng’s formidable 19-star combat strength, it was impossible to flee or evade.
If he fled, he would be teleported to the battlefield for a longer time, and there might be more danger.
It would be even more dangerous if he tried to escape, so Lu Dajiang decided not to.
Lu Dajiang decided to confront this attack head-on, using his strength!
Normally, there was a two-star difference between 17-star combat strength and 19-star combat strength. It was a huge difference in strength.
However, within this gap, there was subtlety.
Lu Dajiang exerted all his might, hoping to withstand Ding Sheng’s assault.
Of course, serious injuries were inevitable.
Lu Dajiang’s body emitted all kinds of light as he used all kinds of skills. Almost all of them were defensive skills, increasing his defensive ability in all aspects.
In an instant, Ding Sheng’s attack had arrived and landed on Lu Dajiang.
Crack!
The crisp sound of bones shattering rang out. The moment Ding Sheng’s attack landed on Lu Dajiang’s body, Lu Dajiang was already heavily injured before it could even erupt!
Observing this, Ding Sheng sneered.
Once his attack fully erupted, it would inflict irreparable harm on Lu Dajiang. There would be no healing for him. Alternatively, it might even claim Lu Dajiang’s life on the spot!
The gap of two stars in combat strength was impossible to overcome. Lu Dajiang’s attempt to withstand Ding Sheng’s full-force attack at 19-star combat strength wasn’t as straightforward as anticipated.
But, in the next instant, Ding Sheng’s expression suddenly shifted.
His anticipated instantaneous eruption of attack had been delayed, momentarily halted.
Ding Sheng came to realize that although Lu Dajiang appeared to be employing various defensive skills, he was not solely focused on defense. But in reality, that was not the case.
Lu Dajiang was not completely beaten up on the spot. Lu Dajiang had also launched his attack at the same time. It was a spiritual attack.
Normally, a spiritual attack of this degree wouldn’t affect Ding Sheng if he was prepared.
After all, with a two-star difference in combat strength, Ding Sheng held the advantage.
However, this led Ding Sheng to believe Lu Dajiang couldn’t harm him due to the combat strength gap. Therefore, he did not defend at all. Instead, he focused all his energy on attacking. He wanted to seize this short moment and injure Lu Dajiang as much as possible.
However, this allowed Lu Dajiang to capitalize on the opportunity.
Simultaneously, Lu Dajiang unleashed a spiritual attack against Ding Sheng.
Despite Ding Sheng’s lack of preparation, Lu Dajiang couldn’t inflict any damage due to the significant combat strength difference.
However, this still achieved Lu Dajiang’s objective.
Lu Dajiang’s goal was not to attack Ding Sheng and obtain much effect.
Throughout, Lu Dajiang had been solely focused on his defense.
Attacking Ding Sheng was merely a defensive measure against Ding Sheng’s potential attacks.
The spiritual attack successfully momentarily slowed Ding Sheng’s movements, delaying the eruption of his attack.
By the time Ding Sheng’s assault finally burst forth, Lu Dajiang had vanished within a milky white light.
The tremendous force erupted on the spot, but it completely missed its mark. Lu Dajiang wasn’t hit. He had already been teleported away from the battlefield.
Ding Sheng looked at Lu Dajiang, who appeared in the distant part of the battlefield opposite him, and gritted his teeth in anger.
When his attack landed on Lu Dajiang’s body, Lu Dajiang was severely injured.
Ding Sheng was certain that as long as he fully unleashed his attack, he would be able to kill Lu Dajiang in one hit and take him away easily!
However, Lu Dajiang had managed to escape successfully with the help of the teleportation array!
Just a bit more time. It all hinged on that slight delay.
Ding Sheng hadn’t anticipated losing due to his oversight. His failure to defend against Lu Dajiang’s attack had allowed for a crucial delay, leading to a successful escape.
The best form of defense is indeed offense.
That statement couldn’t be truer.
At that moment, Ding Sheng was filled with regret.
When he attacked just now, he could have been distracted to defend and not let Lu Dajiang’s attack have any effect.
However, it was precisely because of his carelessness and because he had placed all his attention on the attack that he had failed.
A mere fraction made a world of difference! Ding Sheng’s small error had a monumental impact on the outcome.
He could have swiftly eliminated Lu Dajiang, yet now Lu Dajiang had managed to flee.
Though Lu Dajiang was wounded, the injuries were superficial. It could be completely healed, and it would not affect Lu Dajiang’s foundation in any way.
All in all, Ding Sheng’s attack was a complete failure. It did not achieve any effect at all!
With Team Origin, upon seeing Lu Dajiang emerge in the teleportation array, they swiftly closed in around him.
Lu Dajiang, drenched in blood, bore significant injuries.
“How is he?” Huang Yuan asked.
Wei Feng and the others also looked at Lu Dajiang worriedly.
Especially Wei Feng, he was extremely conflicted.
Originally, he might have been the person scheduled to go on stage later, the one who had to bear this risk.
However, Lu Dajiang had given him the chance to go on stage safely first, taking the risk upon himself.
Should anything happen to Lu Dajiang, Wei Feng would feel guilty.
Approaching to check, Liu Yan felt somewhat reassured. He remarked, “More than a dozen of his bones are broken, but they’re all surface wounds. Once we’re back at the territory, they’ll heal without affecting his core. Looking at the outcome, Lu Dajiang succeeded entirely. Thankfully, he didn’t retreat but engaged Ding Sheng in a spiritual attack, buying himself valuable time to escape.”
With the barrier obstructing their perception, they couldn’t grasp the battlefield’s specific situation.
However, relying solely on visual observation, Liu Yan could discern details others couldn’t.
After all, Liu Yan possessed an SS-grade extraordinary perception, his vision augmented to a terrifying degree, far beyond the ordinary.
Liu Yan had attentively observed Ding Sheng and Lu Dajiang’s battle, noticing a crucial point.
If Lu Dajiang had attacked, he would have undoubtedly suffered a crushing defeat due to the substantial two-star difference in combat strength. He might not have even made it back.
Even if he had solely defended, given Lu Dajiang’s strength, he might have survived the battlefield but with severe foundational damage.
It could be said that whether advancing or retreating, it was almost a hopeless situation.
