Chapter 83 Supernatural Power Trapping Formation

律！
The silver-armored white dragon horse reassembled and immediately walked towards Xia Qing, lowering its head and rubbing its cheek against Xia Qing's.

Between his brows and eyes, there was intimacy, loneliness, and a hint of sadness.

"General Yue has achieved his wish; do not be sad, but rather be happy for him."

Judging from the dragon horse's expression, Xia Qing knew that although its form had changed, it was still the same spirited and valiant white dragon horse that had saved its master.

He immediately put his arm around her neck and gently stroked her face.

The white dragon horse also knelt down on all fours, its head resting on Xia Qing's knees.

Xia Qing followed the connection with the Nightmare Artifact and sensed the changes in it, discovering that it seemed to be different from a normal Nightmare Artifact.

Normally, the essence of a nightmare is just the most refined remnant of power after it dissipates, and it is far weaker than the nightmare itself.

However, judging from its primal aura, this dragon steed was no weaker than the previous white dragon horse in the slightest. It seemed to be maintaining its peak condition and its intelligence was fully preserved.

Furthermore, due to its fusion with the Dragon Horse Motorcycle, many of its capabilities may even be significantly enhanced.

"Perhaps it's because this white dragon horse was a gift from Yue Fei and was preserved intact after being cut up?"

Xia Qing had some guesses in her mind.

Regardless, this is a good thing.

With the White Dragon Horse at its peak as his mount, coupled with his charge and Overlord Halberd Technique, he was like a tiger with wings.

I originally thought I might have to hunt down many nightmares to rebuild them, but now I've saved myself a lot of hard work.

However, looking at the white dragon horse, Xia Qing suddenly remembered something else.

With a wave of his hand, a token that was originally stored in the Mirror Demon Card was projected into his palm, and then he held it up to his eyes and examined it carefully.

This should be a waist tag.

Ignoring the ornamentation, the entire waist tag is made of bronze, with only a simple character '岳' on it.

However, there are still many blank spaces around it, which seem to contain some text, but it has not been engraved on them.

This waist tag was given to me by Yue Fei after we had been drinking together. He said it had no practical significance and was just a keepsake.

But this thing is just as peculiar as the White Dragon Horse; it actually maintained its form even after Yue Fei's death.

Unfortunately, after studying it for a long time, Xia Qing still couldn't figure it out and couldn't find anything strange about it besides the fact that it was preserved.

Fortunately, he only intended it as a souvenir, so he didn't dwell on it and simply hung it on his waist.

Anyway, take it with you for now.

Yue Wumu shouldn't harm him. If there's any benefit to him, he'll feel it eventually if he carries it with him.

After carefully putting away the waist token, Xia Qing examined the various changes in herself after the battle.

First and foremost, of course, is the Tai Chi Chuan technique that made a crucial breakthrough in the final battle.

"Displaying your divine power before the crowd, your Tai Chi Chuan, under the watchful eyes of all, battles heroes with divine assistance, your moves seemingly aided by the gods, achieving sudden enlightenment in battle, soaring straight to the Jade Gate Realm!"

"Your Tai Chi technique has improved significantly."

Name: Tai Chi Chuan

"Characteristics: Physical Enhancement (Intermediate); Tai Chi Chuan (Intermediate); Focusing on Oneness (Beginner); Sincerity (Beginner)"

"Progress: 0%"

"Timacy: 30%; Unlocked: Heart-to-heart, Unforgettable, Telepathic"

It was precisely this breakthrough in Tai Chi Chuan that enabled him to defeat Yue Wumu in one fell swoop, playing a crucial role in the battle.

Otherwise, after such a long battle, his physical strength and energy would have already declined.

With the Fangtian Halberd also showing signs of weakening, if this continued, he really wouldn't be able to outlast Yue Wumu, who possessed the strange and uncanny appearance.

This Tai Chi style excels at regulating the body and replenishing vital energy and blood, and it also employs the principle of borrowing and neutralizing force through Yin and Yang, making the opportunity for a breakthrough couldn't be more timely. "Tai Chi Style: This humble Taoist greets Your Excellency."

Because of the unlocked telepathic connection, when Xia Qing focused on Tai Chi Chuan, Tai Chi Chuan also sent a message.

It was rather brief, but it did fit Xia Qing's impression of this guy.

"Looks like I got a good time just now."

Xia Qing smiled inwardly and replied.

"Tai Chi Chuan: It's something for martial arts masters, how can you pretend to be one?"

"Tai Chi Chuan: This humble Taoist priest simply does not wish for that nightmare to harm the people around him..."

The explanation of Tai Chi Chuan was brief, but in short, it was full of joyful spirit.

After exchanging a few casual words about Tai Chi, Xia Qing turned to other things.

"After a fierce battle using your [Overlord Halberd Technique], you finally defeated that famous general of the ages. In a moment of triumph, you were filled with pride. Furthermore, after receiving guidance from Tai Chi Chuan, all your lifelong learning was integrated into one, and you suddenly attained a divine power: Trapping the Enemy in Battle!"

"Good, good, good, another powerful divine ability."

Tai Chi Chuan is a skill that requires breakthroughs in battle, but the Overlord Halberd Technique is something that is only realized afterward.

As Xia Qing carefully experienced the effects of this "Trapped Formation" technique, he was overjoyed.

"Charging into battle"—just from the name, you can tell it belongs to a series of supernatural abilities.

Charging requires a mount to use.

This trap is no exception; it needs to be used in conjunction with armor.

Its function is even more peculiar.

Perhaps influenced by Tai Chi, this "Trapping Formation Divine Skill" allows one to utilize the force of an attack on armor.

It can store a small amount of force from an impact within its armor; the stronger the armor, the greater the force it can contain.

This supernatural power, combined with the cotton body, undoubtedly provides an even higher level of protection against impacts.

Finally, the accumulated power is unleashed in one fell swoop, like grains of sand forming a tower, or water accumulating into a river, possessing the power of a mountain collapse and a tsunami.

As its name suggests, it is a trap.

Its best performance is obviously when it is surrounded and outnumbered.

With the will to charge into battle and the courage to face death, even the most overwhelming enemy forces will become the ultimate force to annihilate them.

"It requires a set of powerful armor, and it's also a divine ability that needs to be used in conjunction with the equipment."

Xia Qing couldn't help but glance at the heavy armor of Beiwei piled up beside her.

Undoubtedly, this is another extremely powerful killing technique, perhaps even his strongest killing ability at present.

However, this requires wearing a full set of heavy armor with unparalleled defense to withstand enemy attacks and accumulate more power.

Now, not only the Fangtian Halberd, but even the Beiwei Heavy Armor is struggling to keep up with demand.

"No, I have to ask Ling Shuang tomorrow to see if she can give me a few more Nightmare intels."

With that thought in mind, Xia Qing shouldered the heavy armor and halberd and knocked on Chen Nuonuo's door once again.

The dragon steed motorcycle wasn't badly damaged, and after merging with the essence of the white dragon horse, it was completely renewed. However, the weapons and armor definitely needed some repairs.

"You...you went to try catching cannonballs with your bare hands?"

Chen Nuonuo was already used to Xia Qing's visits, but when she saw the Fangtian Halberd and the miserable state of the Beiwei Heavy Armor, her eyes widened in surprise.

The halberd was deformed from the blow, and it was crooked and almost turned into a spear.

The brand-new heavy armor made of military-grade ultra-high hardness armor steel, which was delivered this morning, has many damaged parts.
