Although the four of them were of the same level and the difference in their cultivation base was limited, there was a real gap between them.
Dugu Chou, Ling Xiaozui, Feng Luo, and Mr. Nian were the ones who were truly of the same level. Their abilities were more or less equal; it was difficult to tell who was better in a one-on-one fight. As for Heaven's Inquisition, Gu Chaliang, while he was also of the same level, he was unavoidably weaker. Moreover, his main cultivation path was not focused on offense. If they were to fight in a real fight, Feng Luo was confident that he could take him down within three hundred moves.
Feng Xiange's cultivation base was a level lower and he was not known for his combat prowess. It would be his limit if he could exchange a hundred moves with Feng Luo.
Therefore, Feng Xiange was the weakest link in the enemy's encirclement!
As long as Feng Luo could break through his blockade, he could leave with ease.
On the other hand, if he could not even break through this link, then he would be in real danger today!
Therefore, he immediately came up with a strategy to attack Feng Xiange with all his might!
He did not seek to kill the enemy but to break out of the encirclement!
The mysterious man in black charged over like a mad tiger. Feng Xiange, who was the first to receive the attack, felt the immense pressure.
In spite of it, Feng Xiange grasped the other party's mentality instantly. The current situation was obvious. Their combat power was far superior to the other party's and the encirclement was complete. The other party was injured and his combat strength had been reduced, but his actual combat strength was still above Feng Xiange's. He possessed the ability to kill Feng Xiange. His aggressive attack and murderous intent was to force Feng Xiange to give way!
As long as Feng Xiange retreated, the other party could escape immediately. With the other party's cultivation base, even if he was injured, it would be impossible for Feng Xiange to kill him here as long as he escaped the encirclement. He could only let him escape.
Feng Xiange's thoughts raced as he sucked in a deep breath. His entire body glowed as he faced the attack head-on without avoiding it.
The only thing he could do now was to face it head-on without dodging!
Feng Xiange was a seasoned man. Now that he knew the crux of the situation, how could he back out? Since he dared to pick him as the breakthrough, he would slap him in the face. He would let him know what it meant to be high and mighty, what it meant to be the end of the seas and the crumbling of rocks, and what it meant to be indisputable …
In fact, the moment Feng Xiange made the decision to fight with brute force, a strange thought flashed across his mind – Heaven's Inquisition obviously held a deep grudge against the Four Seasons Tower, so it was hard to change their stance. Ling Xiaozui had a grudge against the Four Seasons Tower in the past as well, and now that the Four Seasons Tower had plotted against Yun Yang with such a venomous move, he would have to settle old and new scores together. There was also Dugu Chou. Due to the previous sword trial, his stance was also on the opposing side. Heaven's Inquisition had already made it clear, "Haven't I found two helpers?"
The two helpers, as the name suggested, referred to Dugu Chou and Ling Xiaozui.
In this way, this matter had nothing to do with him at all. He could completely stay out of it and walk the open road alone.
But now … why the hell was he the one who was putting in the effort?
As Feng Xiange attacked with all his might, he felt that he had been terribly wronged.
What was this old man fighting for?
Especially now, he was basically gambling with his life. How … how could he explain this?!
No matter how much Feng Xiange cursed inwardly, he still gave it his all. The situation was clear now. The siege had been set. If the man in black really broke through from Feng Xiange's side, Feng Xiange would not be able to withstand the Four Seasons Tower's revenge, let alone Gu Chaliang and the other two. Today, he had to make this bastard stay!
With a loud bang, the result of the battle was revealed. The mysterious man in black's desperate attack did not pale in comparison to Ling Xiaozui or Dugu Chou's full-force attack. Even though Feng Xiange had given it his all, he was still flung away like a kite with a broken string after a loud cry. While he was still in the air, he was already coughing up blood. It was obvious that he had suffered a severe injury.
In spite of this, the mysterious man in black did not fare any better. He had just been ambushed by Heaven's Inquisition and was severely injured. Not only were his internal organs injured, two of his ribs were broken as well.
Although Heaven's Inquisition's combat strength could not compare to Ling Xiaozui, Dugu Chou, or Mr. Nian, he was still an expert of the same level. He was also a top-notch expert in this world. Anyone who had been ambushed by his full-force attack when they were defenseless would not have been able to bear it.
In order to break through the siege, the mysterious man in black had attacked with all his might. His aura was impressive, and it was difficult for ordinary people to face him head-on. However, deep down, he was hoping for a fluke, hoping that Feng Xiange would be wise enough to protect himself so that he could escape.
It was a pity that his desperate counterattack had the opposite effect, causing Feng Xiange to face him head-on without backing down. Feng Xiange was not a mediocre person. How could the Phantom Physician God of Wine, who had lived for centuries, survive until now without a certain level of ability?
Feng Xiange's all-out attack had worsened the mysterious man's injuries. His already damaged internal organs were churning as if the world had been turned upside down. His vision darkened as he spat out a mouthful of blood.
The sound of the wind grew stronger. Dugu Chou's attack was only a hair's breadth away from reaching him.
The mysterious man in black's stumbling form halted abruptly before he danced in the air like a willow catkin. It was as if he was not affected by the force, but it was also as if he had gone along with Dugu Chou's attack and used it to escape. However, how could Dugu Chou's attack be deflected and redirected so easily?
The man in black, who was struck once more, spat another mouthful of blood. However, the Heaven Measuring Ruler in his hand suddenly emitted thousands of rays of light.
Countless rays of golden light, which were as thin as rays of light, suddenly shot out and instantly covered the entire space within a radius of several hundred feet.
"Sky Piercing Golden Gleam!"
Feng Xiange, Dugu Chou, and Heaven's Inquisition cried out in unison.
"You're Liang Canghai?"
"I can't believe that the eccentric talent of the generation who traversed both the legal and illegal worlds and terrorized the world has now become a shady character of the Four Seasons Tower!"
Feng Xiange wiped away the blood at the corner of his lips and stood shakily, unable to hide the shock in his eyes.
Liang Canghai let out a long howl and completely disregarded the fact that his identity that he'd concealed for a long time had suddenly been exposed, and he flew out swiftly like an arrow.
Since his identity had been exposed, there was no need to say anything more. His priority was to survive!
The Sky Piercing Golden Gleam.
Back then, Liang Canghai had used this Heaven Measuring Ruler to defeat all his opponents in the world and build his reputation. However, compared to himself, the Heaven Measuring Ruler in his hand was much more popular. Other than being a mystical weapon, it was also one of the top mystical hidden weapons in the martial world!
The Heaven Measuring Ruler was made up of countless fine golden filament needles. The so-called Sky Piercing Golden Gleam was a manifestation of the Heaven Measuring Ruler's characteristics. The golden filament needles that made up the Heaven Measuring Ruler were almost weightless, so when they were assembled into a ruler, they were as light as a feather. However, the golden filament needles had a peculiar curve. Once they pierced through a person's skin, they could drill into the person's body through the bloodstream; it was difficult to expel!
Those who were struck, no matter how impressive their cultivation base was, would not be able to escape death!
Even Liang Canghai himself was powerless against such an injury!
That was why the martial world called it the 'Poison Golden Gleam' back then.
However, just as Liang Canghai's reputation was growing and his name was known throughout the continent, this person had mysteriously disappeared.
To this day, no one had seen this person for at least hundreds of years. Everyone thought that he was long gone.
