Chapter 454: Ding Ling vs. Ao Bai
Ding Ling and the Little Dragon Girl were already clad in armor, and at this moment, they descended from the city tower, leaped onto their horses, and galloped out, quickly leaving the city to stand face-to-face with Ao Bai.
This time, Ding Ling wielded an exotic weapon.
It was Yuchi Jingde’s Divine Whip.
This Divine Whip was not a soft whip but a hard one, forged entirely from Divine Iron. The whip’s rod had a hexagonal shape and was uniform in thickness from end to end, with a pointed spike at the tip. The handle was forged separately, and the rod had raised tiers shaped like a tower, making it look like an iron rod!
It was just more lethal than an iron rod!
It was five or six feet long, differing from the Divine Whip’s historical length, making it very suitable to be used as a long weapon!
With one hand tightly gripping a Divine Whip, Ding Ling’s appearance exuded an intense Evil Qi, exhibiting great divine might that would make anyone instinctively feel fear, exuding an aura that dominated everything, starkly different from the martial heroes before, with a vast difference akin to a Celestial Abyss.
Ao Bai also couldn’t help but raise his brows at the sight, responding with a solemn demeanor:
"Finally, someone visually appealing has come. Let’s see if he’s just a fancy pillow with no real use."
Ao Bai grinned, sizing up Ding Ling, seeing how his cheekbones were sharp like they were chiseled, his brows ink-black, his face like a silver platter — truly a handsome man, making Ao Bai laugh:
"You appear to have an extraordinary aura, but to think you’re just a pretty boy!"
From the side of the horse, he picked up a long whip and forcefully lashed it towards Ding Ling:
"Let me first test your strength! Take one of my whips!"
Whack!
Ao Bai’s whip lashed out into the void with a series of crackling sounds, with waves faintly visible in the air. Clearly, Ao Bai put all his strength into it, driven by Fusion Qi, intending to thrash Ding Ling to death, possibly to stop.
Ding Ling saw it clearly and didn’t intend to hold back. Riding swiftly, he directly used the Divine Whip to exhibit the Dog Beating Stick Technique.
Boom!
Once the whip was lashed out, the Heaven-Pointing Technique unfolded, shadowed everywhere as stick images fell effortlessly into place, deflecting in front as one descended towards Ao Bai’s soft whip, twisting and flinging it away with a flick — Bang!
A formidable Unrivaled strength surged forth, entangling Ao Bai’s soft whip in an instant, flinging it far away.
Ao Bai, caught off guard, almost fell off the horse, utterly shocked:
"Such strength, such powerful staff technique!"
His eyes, extraordinary unlike ordinary people, saw that Ding Ling used a Divine Whip, yet wielded it like a staff, immediately shouting:
"Who are you!"
Ding Ling, too lazy to respond, rushed over with a Divine Whip raised high, close enough that he swung it down upon Ao Bai’s head.
Whack the Dog’s Head!
Again employing the Dog Beating Stick Technique, this time with seven to eight parts Fusion Qi driven, once unfolded, howling Xun winds arose from nowhere, the Divine Whip lashed down, resembling the descent of a Celestial Thunder, rumbling loudly with an exceedingly terrifying aura!
Engulfed by roaring vigorous winds, Ao Bai immediately sensed it, instinctively perceiving a crisis; how could he dare catch it head-on?
With a loud shout, he drew a saber from his back to block above.
Bam!
The Divine Whip struck the saber with a mighty force, causing Ao Bai to stagger, his hands softening, the saber falling with a loud slap, heavily hitting his head.
Crack!
The sound of his Protective Gang Qi breaking was heard.
Feeling like his head was splitting, utterly horrified, Ao Bai rolled off the horse with a slap!
Just as he fell, Ding Ling’s Divine Whip swung to strike where he just sat, with a thundering sound, breaking the sturdy horse’s back, causing it to wail and collapse, unable to rise.
Seeing this, Ao Bai gasped in shock, pupils contracting, realizing he had encountered a true master, immediately not hesitating, exerting full effort to run the Thirteen Grand Protectors’ Cross-Training Golden Bell Shield and Breathing Technique, with Fusion Qi driving, a very tough Protective Gang Qi covered his body.
Just before, he knew Ding Ling’s strength far exceeded his own, not daring to face him head-on, activating the Fusion Qi for protection, then turned and fled.
"Protect me!"
Ao Bai shouted.
Immediately, over a hundred cavalrymen charged out from the side.
These were Kublai’s elite ace cavalry forces.
A number not large, about three thousand in total.
Each had reached the level of a Second-class General.
Ao Bai brought over a hundred with him.
Showing how much Kublai relied on Ao Bai.
This cavalry formation followed closely, not far from Ao Bai’s rear. Seeing Ao Bai desperately seeking help after a fall, they dared not delay, charging forth eagerly.
Ding Ling, with a Divine Whip in hand and a cold look, rushed forward.
Dogless Under-Heaven!
The strongest Dog Beating Stick Technique unfolded, wielding left and right, stick shadows densely fell as no one was an equal, truly die at contact, wounded at touch!
Like autumn wind sweeping leaves, storm vortices rolling on the ground, Ding Ling swiftly penetrated this cavalry formation, continuing to pursue Ao Bai.
Seeing this scene, Ao Bai was more terrified, shouting uncontrollably:
"Everyone charge!"
Rumble!
Nearby cavalry formations charged aggressively.
Meanwhile, on the city walls, Guo Jing and others watched with both excitement and worry.
"Unexpectedly, Ding Ling is so ferocious, with two Divine Whips in his hands, truly unbeatable, that Ao Bai appeared very strong, his defensive Gang Qi seemingly at the Five Extremes’ level, yet Ding Ling broke it easily, Ding Ling’s strength is beyond comprehension!
But the Mongolian Army is vast in numbers.
Ding Ling only with the Little Dragon Girl and a few hundred, can they resist?! Should we go down to help."
Ao Bai’s fortuitous encounters and defensive Gang Qi driven by Fusion Qi already matched the Five Extremes, this Guo Jing discerned clearly, with even more admiration for Ding Ling’s prowess.
But the enemy’s army was immense, roughly at least a hundred thousand strong, how could Ding Ling withstand it?
Huang Rong worriedly watched Ding Ling galloping solo chasing Ao Bai into the cavalry, mentioned:
"Ding Ling’s talent is unparalleled, rare throughout history! Plus, he has had similar achievements, he’s smart and aware, surely wouldn’t do anything suicidal, we’ll see as we go, if Ding Ling can’t hold, we will charge out to rescue him."
...
Boom!
Bang bang bang!
Relentlessly using the strongest Dog Beating Stick Technique, Dogless Under-Heaven, Ding Ling, dissatisfied with the slow speed of horseback, leapt off, driving Fusion Qi, operating the Body Technique: Spiral Nine Shadows, dashed around the battlefield like a ghost, wielding the Divine Whip in hand.
Whack!
Whack whack!
Anyone struck by the Divine Whip would have their heads exploded, bodies pierced instantly.
Compared to the Drumming Golden Hammer’s heavy brutality, the Divine Whip was nimbler, with higher and faster enemy-killing efficiency, perfectly paired with the Dog Beating Stick Technique.
With one move of Dogless Under-Heaven, stick shadows everywhere, just a moment was enough to sweep across dozens of cavalrymen, killing them.
Pushing fiercely ahead!
Ding Ling’s enemy-killing efficiency was enough to make anyone watch with awe and fear.
Ao Bai fled quickly like a wild rabbit.
But Ding Ling was even faster, like a bolt of lightning sweeping across the battlefield.
