DRAMA NOVEL ONLINE Chapter 164: Nine Dragons Matrix
Jacob's punch seemed to be light, plain, and without the slightest bit of power.
However...
As he threw the punch, the wind and thunder were aroused.
The sea of flames failed to bear it and dispersed.
Krish's pupils were suddenly dilated.
He had confidently presumed that Jacob would not break through his divine power.
Even if Jacob could bear it for a while, it would take most of his energy to fight against the sea of flames.
Jacob would be overwhelmed by the fire.
After all, Zhen Qi could not stand Krish's divine power.
If Jacob wanted to maintain the shield and protect himself, he must strengthen it by releasing Zhen Qi continuously.
However, it would consume a lot of Zhen Qi.
No matter how strong Jacob was, his Zhen Qi was not endless.
Once he ran out of it, he would be at Krish's mercy.
Krish didn't expected that Jacob would be able to attack him while resisting the blazing flames.
Moreover, this punch was stronger than Jacob's previous attacks.
At this moment, a thought popped into Krish's mind.
Jacob had not released much Zhen Qi to resist the rampage of the fire.
But that was impossible.
Krish quickly got rid of this thought.
Then he moved again.
He hurriedly threw a punch at Jacob.
Unlike Jacob's attack, Krish's punch had gathered the energy of wind and clouds. He hit Jacob at full speed as if destroying heaven and earth.
Krish didn't want to give up.
Although he didn't foresee Jacob's movement and was in a hurry, he managed to collect some flames and hit Jacob.
"Jacob is not afraid of the sea of fire!"
"Pavilion Master's divine power can't work on Jacob?"
"Look! Jacob attacked the Pavilion Master again. How dare he?"
People exclaimed as they saw it.
Some perceptive people from the Pharmacy Pavilion frowned deeply.
"Second Elder, what do you think of Jacob's punch?"
Yana asked.
The Second Elder didn't reply.
The Pavilion Master's divine power didn't have much effect on Jacob. The flames that were known to burn everything didn't even break Jacob's Protective Force. Perhaps Jacob was faster in replenishing the force with Zhen Qi.
No matter what, he realized how powerful Jacob was.
For the first time, the Second Elder's confidence was undermined.
'Jacob had forced the Pavilion Master to use his divine power, but he was not harmed by it.'
'Does this mean that Jacob is stronger than him?'
Just thinking about this gave Second Elder the creeps.
He hurriedly discarded the thought.
And he continued to watch the battle.
Everyone looked at the Pavilion Master with expectant eyes. They hoped that he could beat Jacob up and tear him apart, which would avenge the Third and Fourth Elders and display the might of the Pharmacy Pavilion.
Their fists finally collided.
It made a loud sound in the air.
And it spread throughout the entire Pharmacy Pavilion.
A huge energy wave, with them at the center, instantly surged in all directions.
It had the momentum of a tsunami.
And it brought along some flames as it rushed downwards.
At this moment, the Pharmacy Pavilion's protective matrix emerged.
People saw a colorful barrier resembling a ward. It blocked the waves of aerial force that rushed in.
The Pavilion's protective matrix rippled for a while. A lot of power was consumed to block the aftermath of Jacob and Krish's attacks.
The power of their attacks was so huge that many ordinary disciples of the Pharmacy Pavilion trembled. Some of them even went down on their knees.
Krish went flying after being hit by the punch.
He retreated dozens of meters backwards in the air before he managed to stop.
Blood oozed out from the corner of Krish's mouth.
It contrasted sharply with his pale face.
As for Jacob, he was also pushed back by the recoil of his punch.
However, the distance he retreated was only half of Krish's. Moreover, Jacob didn't bleed and his face was not that pale.
Although Jacob had seized the initiative in this move, people could clearly see the gap between their strengths. People were shocked again by this fact.
It had astonished people when Jacob pierced the Pavilion Master's shoulder. It was inconceivable and even ridiculous. However, the Pavilion Master was now at a disadvantage in a serious battle!
It was impossible.
What was going on?
If Krish was not the Pavilion Master but in another position, everyone would suspect that he was losing on purpose.
Yana frowned even deeper.
She did not say a word.
And she stared at the sky without blinking.
"You..."
Krish coughed after he steadied himself.
He coughed up a little blood.
"You're really powerful. I am impressed..."
"Looks like I'm not your match."
Krish looked at Jacob with deep fear.
He didn't expect to be defeated by Jacob.
Krish waved his hand.
The red flames in the sky immediately surged towards him and disappeared.
"You're good too. You took a punch from me and just had a slight injury. I didn't expect that either."
Jacob stopped attacking.
He stood in the air with his hands behind.
He looked like a monarch looking down on his people.
"There are many things that you didn't expect. You have defeated me, but it won't change your fate!"
Krish shouted.
Although he didn't want to admit it, he had realized that he wouldn't be able to kill Jacob on his own.
Jacob's power largely exceeded his imagination.
And Jacob might make further advances in the future. He should serve the Pharmacy Pavilion, otherwise, he would be a great threat to them. Besides, Jacob had killed the Third and Fourth Elders. The Pharmacy Pavilion had a deep grudge against him.
More importantly, Jacob possessed supreme cultivating techniques and panacea formulas.
For any one of the reasons, he had to kill Jacob today.
He couldn't defeat Jacob by himself.
But this was the base of the Pharmacy Pavilion.
Furthermore, Krish was not the only expert of peak Divinity Phase here.
The aura around Krish seemed to change.
"Distinguished forebears, I, Krish Tate, make a request to borrow the Pharmacy Pavilion's power of the dragon vein!" Located in Mountain South Province, the Pharmacy Pavilion was surrounded by mountains.
As Krish finished...
People felt the earth shaking.
Suddenly, some earthy yellow energy rose from the mountains around the Pharmacy Pavilion.
People counted and found there were nine of them.
Every ray of energy was stronger and thicker than the dragon vein that Krish had grasped earlier.
They contained greater power.
And they had stronger might.
Even Yana was shocked to see that.
The Second Elder was also surprised.
"The Pavilion Master is using the Nine Dragons Matrix!"
As the base of the Pharmacy Pavilion, this place had been carefully maintained for hundreds of years. For security, people had prepared many ways for defense.
The Pharmacy Pavilion's Pavilion Protection Matrix was a part of the system.
Three hundred years ago, the Pharmacy Pavilion spent enormous amounts of money, labor and resources to transform this place. With the Pharmacy Pavilion as the center, a matrix spread in all directions.
A massive one.
It was called Nine Dragons Matrix.
Based on the power of the dragon vein, the matrix contained enormous energy.
The Pharmacy Pavilion's Pavilion Protection Matrix was mainly for defense.
And the Nine Dragons Matrix was for offense.
It was a chaotic era one hundred years ago.
Many foreign experts came to China. They invaded and harassed people.
The Pharmacy Pavilion was targeted by many of them.
They attacked it for the treasures.
In face of the Divinity Phase experts guarding there, every invader left empty-handed.
Then they formed an alliance.
They wanted to strip the Pharmacy Pavilion of all articles of value, including the precious medicine.
In the end, it was with the Nine Dragons Matrix that people eliminated the foreign experts in one battle. The crisis of the Pharmacy Pavilion was thus solved.☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
