No king infront of Tai Lung
[3rd POV]
When one practiced the art of cultivation, one could gain longevity by increasing thier lifeforce through mediation. And also by strengthening their body through circulating chi inside of thier body and taking in the energy of the world.
But one interesting thing about lifeforce was that not only could it lengthen your lifespan, it could also increased a person's endurance by a mile. For example, if you had a lifeforce that should last you for two hundred years, you could heal from injuries by sacrificing your lifeforce.
That was how you lose lifeforce as well. By sustaining injuries in battle, you would lose your lifeforce at the cost of healing from said injury. If you let it heal gradually, the life force you lose diminished but if you want a fast regeneration, you would have to sacrifice more of your life force.
Most practitioners often do this in battle as they could just regain the lost lifefroce by cultivating more later, after ensuring their survival.
So if someone had a huge amount of lifeforce, they could survive their head being chopped off. Like a game character who would not die from one single attack - no matter how lethal. You would have to chip down his HP first.Follow the latest novels at novelhall.com
A similar situation happened to Samudragupta as he escaped death with a hair's breadth. His life force had plummeted to such a degree that for the first time in centuries, he felt like a mortal..
"You are like a cockroach." Tai Lung remarked as he looked at Samudragupta who was kneeling down, clutching his body which was showing his bones due to the flesh being scraped off by the revolving ball of energy called the Rasengan.
Samudraguta looked at Tai Lung with defiance in his eyes. His breath came in rapid puffs that constantly created a gust of air.
"Nevertheless, can you take two more rasengans?" Tai Lung asked with an evil smirk as he put his arms up and two resengans appeared on both of his palms.
Samudragupta took a deep breath and swallowed his ego. He was the inferior one, he finally realized. The truth was hard to swallow and it felt like he just swallowed a cactus.
But he needed to do what he could to survive this. The power of a king was not only his individual power but also his army.
So he took a deep breath that almost exploded his lungs and he trumpeted soundly. The sound echoed throughout the city and it was a signal his soldiers have been waiting for.
He had asked to be left alone to fight Tai Lung but now that the fight was concluded, it was finally time to start the real battle.
He was not here for a duel.
He was here for war.
"Calling for help?" Tai Lung said, ridicule almost ozzed out of his words.
"That's plenty of time to kill you!" Tai Lung said and leapt at Samudragupta who exploded with the last of his strength. He needed to get away from Tai Lung as quickly as possible.
*BOOOM!!!*
Tai Lung slammed one Rasengan on the place Samudragupra was previously kneeling down. He clicked his tongue at the fact that he missed and then he pounced again.
Rasengan was a complicated technique that needed constant focus. This was also the reason why he was unable to use it against Mighty Eagle.
His speed was immensely slowed down as he was also unable to use flash steps which allowed the king to run away.
He had never run away before. Samudragupta took a great leapt and got out of the crater carved on the ground before he started retreating. He gritted his teeth at the humiliation but he carried on.
But then his danger sense developed through many centuries came to life and he leapt at the side again. Tai Lung crashed on the ground like a missile and barely missed him. The shockwave sent Samudragupta to stumble but he was still on his feet.
Then an instinct he never knew he had kicked in. The instinct of a weaker animal to run away from its predator.
Tai Lung used flashsepts and turned the air into a soldid foothold to bounce off at the speed of a bullet. Then he crashed straight into the western part of the city.
With black claws that seemed to swallow the light around it, Tai Lung rushed at the enemy using the dragon claw technique.
He swung his arm around at a blinding speed that made his arm completely disappear to the naked eye. But the result was devastating as everything was cut, even the soldiers of Tibet.
But the problem lies in the elephants from the Gupta Empire.
"Hoh~" Tai Lung trailed playfully while looking at his claw and then back to the remaining soldiers who were all elephants. There was not a single scratch on thier body even though the technique was supposed to cut everything.
"You are all like him."
..
..
"Interesting."

[3rd POV]
"Are you alright?" The general of Tibet asked as he went towards Samudragupta.
"Do I look alright to you?" Samudragupta reapodes in anger as he released his exposed muscles and bones.
"I have underestimated him greatly." Samudragupta admitted.
The strongest warrior in the world.
Tai Lung might just be worthy of that title.
"So what are we going to do next?" The tiger general asked.
"We need to tire him out." Samudragutpa said, "He had a decent amount of chi but he did not have them stored inside his body like us cultivators do. He will tire out soon and at that moment, I will strike again."
"But for now, I need to heal myself and get ready for the next confrontation," Samudragupta said and sat down on top of the building where he could oversee the battle.
Then he proceeded to start cultivating. He circulated his chi inside his body in such a manner that it also slowly pulled in the chi of the surroundings. The place was not abundant with chi like the place he usually cultivates but this would have to do.
He also took a few pills and he continued, his wounds healing at a speed visible to the eye.
Next time, he would take back his honour.
