Cosmic Trading System-Chapter 709 668: Escape in Defeat!

"What?"

Ironwood Ancestor looked up, sensing the might of the enclosed fist and couldn't help but express his shock.

Had Xiao Chong been concealing his real power all along?

This realization filled him with both shock and fear.

He didn't want to imagine that the already formidable Xiao Chong had been suppressing his real strength. Now, with Xiao Chong going all out against him... and undeniably at his peak, if he were to let any other Super Warrior attack, he would indeed be in grave danger.

"Bang - Bang - Bang - "

As Ironwood Ancestor was contemplating his situation, Xiao Chong's relentless assault ensued. Each attack was even more merciless than the last, seemingly enabled by some special technique.

The power of each attack was greater than the last. In reality, techniques like these were aplenty but very few of them could be applied against such formidable Super Warriors who embody the laws of the universe, which makes their attacks manifold in complexity.

While Ironwood Ancestor was deflecting this onslaught, he retreated bit by bit. Despite being in open space, his steps were heavy as if he was stepping on various planets. Every step he took backward seemed to trigger an explosion as though a planet was being crushed under him.

At the same time, Ironwood Ancestor's complexion turned increasingly crimson, soon resembling a drop of blood.

"Puff - "

Eventually, after withstanding yet another attack, Ironwood Ancestor couldn't help but bend over and coughed up a considerable amount of blood. Concurrently, his aura rapidly depleted as if a pillar had just collapsed. At that moment, another attack from Xiao Chong came crashing down, making his body go hurtling away like a shooting star.

"Ironwood Ancestor!!!"

"How is this possible???"

"Did Ironwood Ancestor lose?"

All these happened in a split second, leaving the rest of the Marvel Family in utter disbelief, unable to comprehend what they had just witnessed.

The Marvel Family's fleet stirred.

"Hu - Hu - "

Some chest from the Marvel Family instinctively rushed out of the battleship, eager to join the fray. However, as soon as they left the battleship, they froze in their tracks, their faces ghostly white.

Who was Ironwood Ancestor?

He was a match even for other Super Warriors!

Yet, Ironwood Ancestor fell to Xiao Chong. How terrifying must Xiao Chong's power be?

Surely rushing in would only bring upon their demise and serve no purpose at all!

The thought of this put everyone in a frenzy.

Could the Ironwood Ancestor have fallen?

The Ironwood Ancestor was the strongest Super Warrior in the Marvel Family. He was the cornerstone of their family. If anything happened to him, what would become of the Marvel Family? Would they end up like the Ouyang Family?

These thoughts caused even more panic.

Recently, they had been relentlessly hunting down members of the Ouyang Family and had seen firsthand how a once-great Ouyang Family came crashing down. While they took delight in the downfall of the Ouyang Family, it was nevertheless unsettling.

But, at present, there was an even more crucial problem.

If the Ironwood Ancestor were to die or flee... what would happen to them?

"Could it be - Could it be - "

"This Xiao Chong is actually this powerful?"

The Ouyang Family was also stunned.

They never expected that the formidable Ironwood Ancestor would be injured this quickly.

"The Thunder Ancestor has said that even if it were him, it wouldn't be easy to kill the Ironwood Ancestor. Could it be that Xiao Chong's power is already comparable to that of a Super Warrior?" said a member of the Ouyang Family in disbelief.

"No, the Thunder Ancestor is a Super Warrior, and Ironwood Ancestor would have been cautious when up against him. Xiao Chong is different. Ironwood Ancestor probably never expected Xiao Chong's power to be so formidable... While Xiao Chong may not possess the strength of a Super Warrior, there's no doubt his power is terrifying!" replied another member from the Ouyang Family.

"After today, Xiao Chong's reputation will probably spread throughout the Nine-Level Civilization Star Domain!" an Ouyang Family member muttered in amazement.

Ironwood Ancestor was already renowned throughout the Nine-Level Civilization Star Domain. Now that Xiao Chong had defeated him fair and square in a one-on-one face-off, it was inevitable that his name would become legendary.

"Brother Xiao's power... is that formidable..."

"Unexpected... truly unexpected..."

"Ironwood Ancestor is no match at all..."

Both Lianshan, Huayang, and Qing Luo were, too, utterly astonished and sucked in cold breaths.

Xiao Chong's power had genuinely left them in awe. In comparison to Xiao Chong's power, they were not even close to being on the same tier as half-step Super Warriors.

"This Immortal Origin Holy Land is indeed marvelous... Even without breaking through to the Super Realm, Xiao Chong's power has increased greatly... The Immortal Origin Holy Land... is truly marvelous..." Lianshan quietly muttered, his emotions running high.

At this moment, the Immortal Origin Holy Land's influence had soared in his heart.

In this world, what mattered the most was not how powerful you were but how much more powerful you could make others.

Even though the Immortal Origin Holy Land's power had caused Lianshan to feel awe, fear, and longing before, nothing compared to the desire he felt at this moment.

Without breaking the realm... but is almost equivalent to breaking the realm...

And there are many half-step Super Warriors who have broken through to the Super Realm!

It was clear that anyone who went to the Immortal Origin Holy Land to seek enlightenment would gain great strength. How could he not yearn for such a place?

"No wonder, Brother Lin and his group, so young, have such great strength. They were born in that place, how could their training not be fast? I heard that the Immortal Origin Holy Land is home to many super warriors, even saints who are very young. This really makes one envious..." Lianshan sighed in his heart.

At the same time, his determination to befriend Lin Yun and his group intensified.

If he and Huayang could rely on their connection with Lin Yun's group and visit the Immortal Origin Holy Land once to seek enlightenment, it would really be beneficial in any way.

Even if they could not go there due to the secrecy of the Immortal Origin Holy Land, it's clear that Lin Yun has a promising future. They would not be at a loss by associating with him.

"Brother Lin, Brother Xiao, they actually defeated Ironwood Ancestor, a famous figure in the ninth-level Civilization Star Domain. Do you know what this means? Brother Xiao is now among the best in the ninth-level Civilization Star Domain, beneath only the Super Warriors, and almost fearless of anyone..."

Bahu Ye, who was by Lin Yun's group, turned to look at Lin Yun when he saw this, speaking excitedly.

He and Xiao Chong were a group. Xiao Chong being such a powerful figure was also a source of pride for him. Moreover, because of Lin Yun's group, Xiao Chong's dealings with him were very considerate.

"Brother Xiao...really is strong..."

Lin Yun nodded slightly and spoke with a smile.

As he spoke, he was amazed. He was already very shocked at Xiao Chong's strength before, but he had not expected that Xiao Chong had been hiding his true power which was truly terrifying.

This moment made him feel more fortunate.

It was really lucky that they hadn't come to blows with Xiao Chong earlier. Otherwise, they would have been in great danger.

Whoosh—

Just then, the Ironwood Ancestor fled the fight with Xiao Chong.

Xiao Chong's strength surpassed the Ironwood Ancestor's expectations.

The Ironwood Ancestor was not a match for Xiao Chong. This was already very certain.

Moreover, Xiao Chong had another five half-step super warriors just waiting to step in. If the Ironwood Ancestor continued to entangle with Xiao Chong, they'd soon be in grave danger.

Decisively, he chose to run away without hesitation.

On the other hand, Xiao Chong, who had managed to injure the Ironwood Ancestor after attacking him several times, was also in a whirl of emotions.

He had heard of the Ironwood Ancestor's fame.

Since coming out of seclusion after thousands of years, he had never crossed paths with any half-step super warriors. He also hadn't expected himself to be that powerful that he could defeat a top-tier, half-step super warrior like the Ironwood Ancestor so easily.

Therefore, after the Ironwood Ancestor was injured, he was taken aback which caused his attack rhythm to pause a bit, giving the Ironwood Ancestor an easy chance to withdraw from the battle.

"Brother Lianshan, friend Huayang, Brother Qing Luo...please help and attack together!" Seeing the Ironwood Ancestor escaping, Xiao Chong's pupils contracted slightly. He looked at Lianshan, Huayang, and the others nearby, and barked a command.

Earlier, the Ironwood Ancestor had threatened him using his clan members. This had crossed his line.

Now that the Ironwood Ancestor was injured and by himself, he didn't want to let him off.

"Sure!"

Lianshan hesitated slightly before agreeing.

The hesitation wasn't because he was afraid that going against the Ironwood Ancestor would pose a threat.

It was because earlier, when the Ironwood Ancestor threatened Xiao Chong, it reminded him...he also had a clan.

What if they failed to kill the Ironwood Ancestor this time, or if the Marvel Family's warriors sought retribution on his family after they killed the Ironwood Ancestor? What would he do then?

This was different from their earlier efforts to resist the Ironwood Ancestor together.

Before, he hadn't expected Xiao Chong to be that strong.

When the Ironwood Ancestor attacked them, it was logical for them to resist together. As long as they didn't severely harm the Ironwood Ancestor, Lianshan believed he wouldn't retaliate by harming their clans.

However, this thought quickly passed.

Generally speaking, at their level, they wouldn't resort to harming each other's clans.

Besides, the reason Ironwood Ancestor wanted Lin Yun was an opportunity for them to show themselves. If they were to back down now, their reputation in the eyes of Lin Yun would certainly tarnish.

Therefore, it only took a moment for Lianshan to decide to join in.

Whoosh— Whoosh—

He and Huayang, who shared a telepathic connection, acted together.

On the other side, Emma White did not hesitate at all, she took action even before Lianshan and Huayang. Qing Luo and Meng Black also acted after a little hesitation.

Whoosh— Whoosh— Whoosh—

In a short while, the five half-step super warriors coordinated, moving in five different directions to surround the Ironwood Ancestor.

At the same time, the five of them released their domain power, all working together against the Ironwood Ancestor.

"You five, do you want to be against me, against the Marvel Family?"

The Ironwood Ancestor, who was focused mostly on escaping, was intercepted. Looking up at Lianshan, Huayang, and the other half-step super warriors, he spoke in a mix of shock and anger.
