It's Not Easy to Be a Man After Travelling to the Future (WN)

Chapter 881: My World!

Bang! Bang! Bang! Ling Lan slashed her sword three times. With each slash, the force behind the sword was greater than the last, and with the final slash, the team leader of this small team lost his balance and fell down from the sky.

“Damn it!” The team leader felt frustrated. Under the ferocious and fast attacks of Ling Lan, he was unable to unleash his full strength. Hence, he could only passively defend himself. ‘Is he really just a normal ace operator?’

When the team members saw their team leader falling to the ground, they exclaimed in shock.

“Team leader!” They wanted to help their team leader but the mecha operators from team 03 held them back with their unrelenting attacks. Team 03 had more mecha operators than them so each imperial operator had to deal with two mecha operators from team 03 fighting with him. However, as imperial operators, they were still able to even out the situation. They couldn’t retreat but they were not at a disadvantage too. This proved that the ability of an imperial operator and an ace mecha master were vastly different.

The team leader couldn’t allow himself to be on the losing end in front of his team members. The pent up frustration of him not being able to proactive attack came bursting out which allowed him to release his full strength. Around 100 meters from the ground, he managed to stabilize his mecha.

Ling Lan followed closely behind him. She raised her sword and prepared to kill this team leader once and for all.

Hzzg! Ling Lan felt her sword cutting through the air. Her opponent actually dodged her attack.

Everyone spectating the fight saw the team leader suddenly twisting his mecha to the left in a seemingly impossible way. This unexpected movement allowed him to evade the fatal blow.

Qi Long narrowed his eyes when he saw this. This movement was similar to the technique his Boss had taught him. ‘Did Hailiya manage to learn Boss’s ultimate technique? Did someone from their team betrayed their Boss and the Federation?’

The team leader looked at the data on his screen and cursed silently. That single movement destroyed two of his secondary engines. This kind of unexpected movement which go against inertia relied heavily on the mecha’s engine. But, to dodge the fatal blow, he had no choice but to make this sacrifice.

However, he still managed to turn the tides around. Even with one engine, he could fight with this mecha and show Ling Lan who was the actual boss.

The team leader raised his sword and spun it around. Then, he slashed it at Ling Lan, who had lost her balance.

“Ah, regiment commander!” This time, the members of team 03 were the ones feeling agitated.

But, their worry was for nothing. Ling Lan lost her balance but she twisted her mecha’s leg and kicked her opponent’s giant sword away.

Bang! Ling Lan made use of the force from this kick to distance herself from her opponent. Then, she stabilized herself.

Bang bang bang! When the team leader saw that Ling Lan was trying to distance himself from him, he started to go on the offensive. He propelled himself forward and attacked Ling Lan furiously.

Ling Lan blocked all the attacks without any error. These two instances show that Ling Lan was able to switch between attacking and defending seamlessly. Only the team leader of this God-Killers team was able to be on par with Ling Lan in this aspect.

When they saw their regiment commander blocking the attacks perfectly, the members of team 03 heaved a sigh of relief. However, this was just the beginning of their end. The members of the God-Killers got stunned by the abilities of team 03 but as imperial operators, they adapted to the situation quickly. When they saw their team leader taking control of the fight, they started to concentrate to take control of their fights too.

Clang! A mecha from team 03 didn’t dodge in time and got hit. It managed to escape the fatal blow but one of its arms was still chopped off. If his teammate didn’t cover him up in time, he would already be killed.

Ling Lan, who was in an intense fight with the team leader, was burning with anxiety. They needed to kill this team quickly. If they could not kill all of them before their reinforcements arrive, they would all be dead.

Ling Lan gritted her teeth. Her gaze turned cold as she decided to use the forbidden skill that Mu Shui-qing banned her from using.

“Ling Lan, this technique you thought of is very powerful, even I have to be careful when using it. However, you must know that the stronger your technique is, the greater the backlash will be. Once the backlash exceeds your tolerable range, your spiritual power will be permanently damaged, which might affect your future advancements. Please be aware of this.” Ling Lan remembered the warning Mu Shui-qing gave her.

“Master, I know what can be done and what can’t be done. My future is important but it’s nothing compared to the lives of my comrades.” Ling Lan’s gaze turned resolute as she activated the forbidden skill.

The portion of her spiritual power that had been sealed got released in full force. The sudden rush of spiritual power frightened Little Four greatly. He shouted in agitation, “Boss, you’re crazy.”

Although Ling Lan’s body was especially strong now, Ling Lan’s spiritual power was even stronger. After learning the skills of the Divine Command sect from Mu Shui-qing, her spiritual power became so strong that even Little Four was in awe.

But to ensure Ling Lan’s safety, Little Four sealed a portion of Ling Lan’s spiritual power. He didn’t expect Ling Lan to unseal this portion of spiritual power personally.

“Little Four, if anything happens to me, you’ll take control of the mecha temporarily.” Ling Lan dared to use this method because she knew that Little Four was here to help her if anything was to go wrong. If she suffered from a backlash and was unable to control her mecha, Little Four would be able to take over the mainframe of her mecha and help her escape.

Little Four wanted to say something, but when he saw Ling Lan’s resolute gaze, he bit his lips and nodded.

Spiritual power could be seen visible seeping through the cockpit of her mecha. Waves of spiritual power came crashing down on everyone. But in Ling Lan’s eyes, the time had stopped moving. No, time didn’t stop, it just got slower. It moved so slowly that Ling Lan was not able to feel it.

This was her spiritual world. In this world, her vision pierced through the cockpit of all the members of the God-Killers team and the members of team 03. She could see… the dread, the nervousness and the excitement on their faces.

“This is my world. If I want it to exist, it’ll exist. If I want to destroy it, it’ll be gone.” Ling Lan’s eyes turned cold. “Yin Yang World, devour and devote. Activate!”

The peaceful spiritual world started to swirl clockwise, warping everything in the scene into two different coloured Taichi fishes. Half of the spiritual world turned into a black fish with serene white eyes as its eyes started devouring and twisting all the energy present, draining all of the spiritual power of half the spiritual world. The other half of the spiritual world turned into a white fish with calm ink black eyes. Energy was continuously gushing out from the ink black eyes of the white fish continuously, filling up half of the spiritual world with spiritual power.

This was a frightening and powerful technique that Ling Lan had comprehended when her spiritual power exploded not long after she graduated from the military academy. It was a domain but it also wasn’t domain. The peculiar energy cycle this technique created had a peculiar way of functioning. As the Taichi ring got bigger, the energy cycle between the two sides would get faster and faster. As the speed of the energy cycle increases, the backlash Ling Lan would suffer would also increase.

At some point, Ling Lan couldn’t handle it anymore and she vomited out mouthfuls of blood. Blood spattered on the controls of the mecha, staining it red.
