Chen Tian looked at the figure blocking his path and asked, "What more do you want?"
The Black and White Sha Hu stared at Chen Tian, then spoke, "Human, thank you for helping me find my enemy."
"Then what does that have to do with you blocking me?"
"But human, you cannot take another step forward. Beyond this point is my territory, and humans are not welcome in my territory. Please leave quickly!"
"Ha!"
Chen Tian was speechless and then said, "What if I don't kill your offspring? I promise you, just let me pass."
"No! I am thinking of my offspring."
Seeing that the Black and White Sha Hu wouldn't budge, Chen Tian asked, "Are you going to let me pass or not?"
"No! Human, leave this place. Ahead is my territory."
Chen Tian, seeing the stubborn Black and White Sha Hu, was again speechless. He then coldly threatened, "Are you going to let me pass or not? If not, I'll force my way through."
The Black and White Sha Hu looked at Chen Tian's expression and calmly said, "Human, leave this place. You are not allowed to enter my territory. This is your final warning."
Chen Tian and the Black and White Sha Hu glared at each other. The Black and White Sha Hu wanted Chen Tian to take a detour, but Chen Tian refused. He was determined to pass through this way and would not change his path.
Finally, the Black and White Sha Hu couldn't wait any longer and let out a roar. Chen Tian retreated and said, "It seems this battle is unavoidable."
Chen Tian was utterly exasperated by the Black and White Sha Hu's actions. It was too stubborn! For the peace of its territory, it insisted that people take a detour, but Chen Tian was just not that kind of person.
Moreover, although the Black and White Sha Hu was a boss-level existence, Chen Tian was not afraid of it. Why would he detour? If it were an ordinary player, he might have relented, but for Chen Tian, there was no word like compromise.
Chen Tian landed on the grass and looked at the Black and White Sha Hu before him. This level eighty-nine lord boss, Chen Tian felt that it might have been difficult for him to deal with before, but not anymore. It would at most be a waste of time.
The main issue was that this was the closest path to the center. If Chen Tian detoured, it would take an extra two or three days. Moreover, this quest was too strange, and Chen Tian needed to investigate it as soon as possible. He hadn't expected such a situation to arise right outside the first guardian hall.
The Black and White Sha Hu also looked at Chen Tian, and its entire body gradually shrank. Then, a middle-aged man appeared before Chen Tian. He looked no different from a human, except for the character 'King' engraved on his forehead. Chen Tian didn't need to think twice to know that this was the Black and White Sha Hu transformed.
The Black and White Sha Hu sighed and said, "Can't you just let me pass?"
"Why should I let you pass? I promised I wouldn't harm your offspring, and I won't."
"I'm afraid my offspring might provoke you, and you'll kill them in self-defense. I know their tempers."
Hearing this, Chen Tian was even more speechless. He then said, "Then let's fight! If I win, I won't attack you proactively. I'll only act in self-defense, and if it's not too much, I won't kill them. If you win, I'll detour, alright?"
"Agreed!"
The Black and White Sha Hu could see that Chen Tian was not inherently bad, but its offspring were simply too hot-tempered. Because of this, many of its offspring had died, and it was always the one who had to kill the enemies in the end.
The Black and White Sha Hu was tired. It was for the safety of its offspring that it wouldn't let Chen Tian pass. Chen Tian understood this. After all, every parent loves their children, even animals. Not to mention humans. If humans lost this spirit and will, what was the difference between them and beasts?
Therefore, Chen Tian understood and proposed a duel. This way, Chen Tian wouldn't have to kill the other party.
Then, Chen Tian's hands were wrapped in a green wind, and his palms slowly opened. The Black and White Sha Hu also had black and white energy swirling around its hands. Then, the two clashed. However, the Black and White Sha Hu's speed was much faster than Chen Tian's.
But not by much. The twenty-level gap between them was insignificant for Chen Tian now. His mastery of wind element was enough for him to contend with the Black and White Sha Hu.
With the amplification of the wind element, Chen Tian's speed increased threefold. After all, wind itself was primarily about speed.
Then, their fists and palms collided. Chen Tian's palms were entwined with strong winds, while the Black and White Sha Hu's fists were wrapped in black and white energy. Then, the two were pushed back together.
The Black and White Sha Hu looked at the young man before it. It sensed that the young man was very powerful, and this was not even his full strength. Fortunately, its decision was correct. Otherwise, if its offspring had provoked this person, the consequence would have been death.
Chen Tian was also enveloped in green airflow, and strong winds howled in the sky, darkening it with black clouds. His Divine Annihilation level wind element mastery allowed him to control the surrounding wind currents at will, turning gentle breezes into gales and gales into gentle breezes.
The continuous creation of wind currents was the most terrifying aspect of this level. Instantly, the entire plain transformed into a world of howling gales.
The Black and White Sha Hu felt as if it was immersed in the center of a windstorm, staring in horror at the human before it. How could such terrifying elemental control be in the hands of a human?
If the opponent were a wind spirit, it would be understandable, but this was a human! A human!
Chen Tian looked at the Black and White Sha Hu and said, "Come!"
His entire body was engulfed in green gales, and he instantly charged towards the Black and White Sha Hu. Seeing Chen Tian charging, the Black and White Sha Hu decisively unleashed its attack. It had to win this battle.
Otherwise, if Chen Tian entered its territory, its offspring would be doomed.
Then, terrifying power flowed through its hands, entwined with black and white energy. Instantly, the two clashed.
Fist against palm, they continuously threw punches and strikes, their shadows filling the sky. Behind Chen Tian, wings of green wind slowly unfurled, and his entire body was clad in armor of green wind.
Chen Tian knew he had to be serious to win. The opponent was a boss, no weaker than Chen Tian, and Chen Tian wanted to end the battle quickly.
The Black and White Sha Hu met Chen Tian's attacks, and then both were pushed back. Simultaneously, Chen Tian took a step forward and instantly appeared before the Black and White Sha Hu. The gales had increased Chen Tian's speed. Now, Chen Tian moved as fast as a gale, covering great distances in an instant.
This was the power of wind. Then, Chen Tian's arms became blades of wind, and he brought them down. The Black and White Sha Hu remained unfazed. As a lord-level boss, its combat experience was naturally not poor. It flicked its body and kicked out its left leg. However, Chen Tian seemed to know exactly what the Black and White Sha Hu intended to do. He instantly changed the direction of his arm blade and clashed with its leg.
Then, one figure was sent reeling back. The Black and White Sha Hu regained its balance, its eyes glowing with black and white light as it charged towards Chen Tian.
Chen Tian clenched his fists and swung them out. Instantly, they collided. The resulting shockwave from the impact of their fists scattered the surrounding winds.
Chen Tian and the Black and White Sha Hu met each other's gaze, then simultaneously lifted their legs, clashed, and lowered them before raising the other. This time, Chen Tian executed a spinning kick, an unexpected move.
Chen Tian thought he could hit the Black and White Sha Hu, but it gracefully dodged the crescent-shaped spinning kick.
Then, Chen Tian pulled away to create distance and looked at its eyes. The Black and White Sha Hu's eyes glowed with light. Chen Tian knew it had used a skill, otherwise, that last move would have been impossible to dodge.
The Black and White Sha Hu possessed a skill called the Black and White Yin-Yang Eye. When using this skill, the vision would slow down countless times, and it would mark the opponent's attack weaknesses. The reason Chen Tian's spinning kick was dodged was because of this skill.
Seeing the Black and White Sha Hu's stance, Chen Tian also opened his Divine Eye. It was just a competition of eye skills. Chen Tian did not believe his Divine Eye would lose to the opponent's.
Then, their eyes glowed with two different lights as they faced each other.
Gales howled, and Chen Tian and the Black and White Sha Hu clashed again.
