Boom!!!
The sound of Li Gong breaking through the air was heard, but it shocked the thousands of spectators in the sky. It wasn't that Li Gong was too fast, but that Li Gong was too slow!
That's right, Li Gong's speed was very slow, so slow that it shouldn't be at this level!
It wasn't that Li Gong's speed was extremely slow, but the speed he was displaying now was very different from the speed he displayed when he descended from the sky. Because of this, it was obvious that he was deliberately slowing down. And at this speed, even Lu An could clearly see his opponent's figure.
What was he doing?
Many of the spectators couldn't figure it out for a moment, but as Li Gong's opponent, Lu An immediately understood his opponent's intention.
The opponent didn't want him to move or retreat.
Too fast would make Lu An choose to dodge, but as long as it was a speed that Lu An could accept, he generally wouldn't dodge. In addition, Li Gong didn't release any large force in the process of charging forward. In other words, it was obvious that Li Gong wanted to get close to Lu An.
That's right, close combat!
In pure close combat, perhaps the Li family was the most qualified to challenge Lu An one-on-one, and they were the least afraid of Lu An's close combat ability. No matter what, a fatal blow in close combat had to be directly hit or penetrated the body, but Li Gong had a layer of extremely hard Heaven-Breaking Gold, and Lu An couldn't break it at all. More importantly, even the Airborne Palm was almost unable to deal with the Heaven-Breaking Gold's defense, because the Heaven-Breaking Gold's influence on space was completely different from the body's influence on space. In the most ideal situation, Lu An could only use the Airborne Palm to penetrate the Heaven-Breaking Gold and hit the surface of Li Gong's body, but it definitely couldn't penetrate his body.
Because of this, the Li family, with their absolute defense, was extremely strong in close combat. Especially when it came to pure close combat without considering the ability brought by attributes, the Hachiko clan was unparalleled.
For the Li family, as long as they could get close to the enemy, they would win half the battle. And the Li family was the clan that was the worst at long-range combat, so whether it was to play to their strengths or to avoid their weaknesses, the Li family would always choose to get close.
This was something that Lu An had already learned from the intelligence reports. However, the problem was that even if it was a long-range battle, Lu An would still find it difficult to defeat his opponent. He was still unable to break through his opponent's defense, not to mention that there was such a huge gap between their realms. Close combat was the only way he could defeat an opponent who was of a higher realm than him. Therefore, even if he knew that his opponent wanted to engage in close combat, he could not retreat.
Boom!
Li Gong quickly rushed over ninety thousand feet and was only three thousand feet away from Lu An. Moreover, he was getting closer and closer. However, Li Gong was still not in a hurry, and did not even increase his speed. He wanted to ensure that Lu An did not escape, so he used this speed to rush in front of Lu An.
There was no need for him to use Forward Charge, nor did he need to use Forward Charge to win. Close combat was enough!
Whoosh!
They had arrived!
In the blink of an eye, the distance between the two was reduced to less than twenty feet. With Li Gong's current speed, there was no inertia at all. He quickly brandished his long spear and attacked from two feet away. Immediately, the spear went straight for Lu An's chest!
So fast!
At this distance, Li Gong had already used his powerful strength to cover an area of three thousand feet around him. Under the suppression of strength that far surpassed Lu An's, it was very difficult for Lu An to use his dark power even if he wanted to. Although Li Gong's forward movement speed was not fast, the speed of this spear was very fast! The speed of this spear directly used all of his strength without any concealment!
Whoosh!
Stabbing at the chest was the most difficult attack to dodge. Moreover, with this kind of speed, if it was just an ordinary Demon Gods, Lu An would not be able to see it clearly.
Because of this, when the opponent rushed in front of him, Lu An had immediately activated the Demon Gods to the maximum!
Since the opponent was determined to fight in close combat, Lu An would definitely not back down in close combat. His bloody pupils turned from half-hidden to very obvious. Although Lu An could only see the afterimage of the spear, he could determine the specific direction of the spear from the opponent's torso movement and the way the spear was shot. The spear had a long shaft, and this could greatly compensate for Lu An's weakness of not being able to catch the attack.
Whoosh!
Lu An immediately dodged to the side, dodging to the side of the long spear. The end of a close-combat battle was far faster than a long-range battle. In addition, Lu An had activated the Demon Gods to the maximum, so no matter what, he had to end the battle quickly!
Because of this, Lu An had the intention of rushing forward while dodging. After all, although the long spear was long, once close combat was used, it would restrict one's movements and agility. Lu An wanted to close in on the long spear, but Li Gong did not let Lu An do so.
Li Gong was over 800 years old this year. He started cultivating at the age of two and officially chose the spear as a weapon from the age of ten. In other words, he had been using the spear for more than 800 years. During this period, he had not used any other weapons, nor did he have the intention to change weapons. He was very attached to the spear, and because of this, his ability to use the spear was very strong.
He was very clear about the advantages and disadvantages of the spear. He, who had fought countless times in his life, knew how to make up for the shortcomings of the spear. The moment Lu An moved, his body immediately took a step in the opposite direction of Lu An. At the same time, his hands acted as a lever, immediately moving the spearhead in the direction of Lu An's movement.
Whoosh!
The spearhead was pointed at Lu An again, causing Lu An's eyes to tremble slightly.
He knew the opponent's close-combat strength as soon as he made a move, so he did not think that Li Gong's spear skills were very strong.
At the same time, Li Gong controlled the short distance to pull back the spear and once again stabbed at Lu An's torso. The spearhead moved very close, not giving Lu An a chance at all. Moreover, the spearhead's speed was very fast. To be able to burst out with such speed in such a short distance, he was definitely a top-notch spear expert.
The extremely fast speed made the spearhead very blurry. Lu An could not reach out to grab it, otherwise, it was very likely that his palm would be stabbed. Even if he was lucky enough to grab the spearhead, the spearhead's sharp blade and strength would immediately cut his palm into pieces. It was meaningless.
Because of this, Lu An could only dodge again.
Whoosh!
Lu An took a step in the opposite direction, and Li Gong did the same, also taking a step in the opposite direction. Although Lu An was retreating and Li Gong was moving forward, the relative distance between the two did not change.
Li Gong once again pulled back the spear by one foot and quickly stabbed again. This time, the front stab was different from the previous two times. Under his control, the spearhead quickly drew a circle, expanding the front stab range. Especially in Lu An's eyes, it was a blurry circle, and he could not see the exact position of the spearhead.
Unable to determine the exact position of the spearhead, Lu An could not accurately choose the direction of the horizontal movement. Otherwise, there was a 50% chance that he would directly hit the spearhead. Because of this, Lu An's body instantly leaned back. His waist exerted strength, and his legs were lifted up, his right leg directly kicking the spear!
Bang!
This kick landed on the spear shaft two feet below the spearhead. Although the spear shaft was also rotating, it was much smaller than the spearhead. More importantly, the spearhead's range of movement was not large. Even if Lu An's kick could not hit the spear shaft, his calf would definitely be able to kick the spear shaft. Lu An's strength was very great, and coupled with the fact that the spear was difficult to control, the force of the lever allowed him to instantly lift the spear from below!
The appearance of this scene immediately caused Li Gong to be shocked in his heart!
Did it not hurt?
Using the tip of his foot to kick the spear and the True Cleaving Gold, it was very likely that his toes would be broken!
Pain was naturally painful, but Lu An did not care about pain at all. As for breaking his toes, it was not to the extent of breaking them. Although his toes were badly mutilated, Lu An, who had the Imperial Dragon Bone, was not worried that his toes would break.
The spear was lifted up, and it instantly became Lu An's opportunity.
Lu An exerted strength on his waist again, from leaning back to bending his torso forward at an extremely fast speed, once again facing Li Gong. To be able to do this, it was still the strength of the Imperial Dragon Bone, coupled with the toughness of the Imperial Dragon Bone. Otherwise, even if other people could do it, their waists would be injured by such a large degree of bending.
Li Gong rushed forward, and Lu An, who had begun to lean back, stopped with all his strength, causing the distance between the two to quickly close. Even Li Gong, who knew that the spear had to be controlled in a long-range battle, had no time to stop himself!
Oh no!
He had clearly thought and experimented countless times before the battle, but he never expected that Lu An would force him to close in on the third move!
The spear was too long, and coupled with the fact that he was completely unprepared, Li Gong had no way to swing the spear and use it to attack Lu An. And once such a long spear was approached, Li Gong knew better than anyone how troublesome it would be.
The conclusion of 800 years of spear use and the experience of countless tribulations told him that the best choice was to immediately give up the spear. The True Cleaving Gold was his own strength, and at worst, he could form another spear!
Therefore, Li Gong made a prompt decision, and very decisively released his control of the spear, and his figure quickly shifted to the side. He had no intention of fighting Lu An bare-handed. He directly used his speed and strength to bypass Lu An, and quickly opened up a distance of more than five feet between Lu An and himself.
And Lu An …
Lu An, who could not stop Li Gong, raised his hands and grabbed the spear above him.
Bang!
The spear was in his hand!
Lu An also had a weapon!
