Feng Bumian shook his head. "That might not be the case. If the four of us work together and look out for each other, we should be able to find its weakness."
Chen Guang did not say anything else and continued to focus on dealing with the tin man.
Actually, with his power, if he unleashed his full power, he might be able to cause damage to this thing in a short period of time, but that was no longer a power that a fighter could use. Against these three, he had to hold back.
Time flew, and in the blink of an eye, three to four hours had passed.
Of the four, three were exhausted, but Chen Guang pretended to be exhausted. Even though the tin man looked like he was in a bad shape, the group's attacks only made its armor shine brighter. At most, it only gained a few scratches.
"Are we really going to return empty-handed again?"
Feng Bumian's voice was filled with unwillingness.
"That might not be the case," Chen Guang said.
"What's wrong?"
Feng Bumian rolled on the ground like a donkey and barely dodged the Tin Woodman's giant foot.
Chen Guang took the opportunity to hit the tin man's wrist.
He had been hitting the same joint with the mace for so long, and it finally showed its effect.
With a crack, the tin man's right forearm was broken.
The other three were overjoyed, and they charged forward with renewed morale.
The tin man had lost an arm, and it did not just lose the power of one arm. The balance of its entire body seemed to have lost its balance, and its combat ability was greatly reduced.
Another hour passed, and the four of them were drenched in sweat and exhausted. The tin woodman's limbs were finally broken by Chen Guang's mace, and it fell to the ground, motionless.
Feng Bumian walked forward and lifted the cover on the tin man's chest. He took out a piece of silk and laughed. "It's done! This is the route! As long as we follow this route, we won't trigger any traps. "
Chen Guang slumped to the ground and wiped the sweat off his forehead. The mace in his hand had also become crooked. Its entire surface was red and hot from being struck and rubbed. As for those meticulously made spikes, they were long gone, leaving only a smooth stick.
The white-haired old man and the old woman with the cane also revealed looks of joy, but strangely, the two of them didn't say anything.
"Brother Chen is a little exhausted. When Brother Chen recovers a little, we'll go in together."
Feng Bumian shoved the silk into his pocket and walked toward Chen Guang.
Although the other two were exhausted, they also got up and walked over.
Seeing this, Chen Guang already knew what was going to happen next, but he just pretended to be a harmless little rabbit. "Alright, I'm so tired."
After saying that, he threw away the mace on purpose and stretched himself.
"Since you're tired, take a good rest."
Feng Bumian continued to approach, and a smile bloomed on his face.
Chen Guang nodded. "That's right, it's time to rest."
Suddenly, the sword in Feng Bumian's hand stabbed toward Chen Guang's chest like a venomous snake. The speed was no slower than when he was fighting the tin man. In fact, it seemed to be even faster.
It was unclear whether he was holding back earlier or he was using some kind of technique to unleash his full potential.
On the other side, the old woman with the cane also let out a scream. Her cane broke into two, and inside it was a small sword. She held it and stabbed it toward Chen Guang's head.
From her voice, she had been pretending to be an old woman, but she was at most a woman in her thirties or forties.
The white-haired old man lashed out with his long whip, and it whipped up a cloud of dust on the ground toward Chen Guang's lower body.
Chen Guang pretended that he was no match for them. He rolled backward and barely dodged the attack from the three. He curled up in the corner and yelled angrily, "What are you doing?"
"Do you really not understand or are you just pretending not to? The three of us have spent a lot of effort to figure out the mechanism of this cave, and we've barely escaped death several times. You want to take a share of the loot? You're too naive! "
Feng Bumian laughed coldly, and his face was full of evil.
"That's right. The three of us are good friends with Shi Fang. Killing you today will be revenge for him."
The old woman with the cane said as she pulled at her face, and the makeup that she had put on fell off. She was indeed a beautiful woman. She must have heard that Chen Guang was afraid of women and was afraid that he would not agree to come, so she purposely pretended to be old.
Chen Guang was shocked. "You … How could you do this? This is too despicable! If not for me today, you wouldn't have been able to destroy the tin man with your skills. How could you burn the bridge after crossing it? "
"Ha ha ha, I've long heard that you are kind and innocent. You really do live up to your reputation. Alright, just accept your death. Stop struggling and waste time. You are no match for the three of us."
The old man with white hair and a child's face grinned and charged forward again. No matter how one looked at it, Chen Guang was no match for the three of them working together.
But he was wrong.
Before he finished, his body suddenly shook violently, and he flew backward. Blood splattered from his back.
It was a stone that had pierced through his chest.
"You … You …"
The old man collapsed to the ground, his face pale. Chen Guang's stone had pierced through his body and shattered his internal organs.
Chen Guang put away the frightened expression on his face and patted away the dirt on his body. "Fine, I was going to spare your lives, but since you're asking for it, don't blame me for being merciless."
"How is that possible?"
Feng Bumian retreated and turned to run.
Chen Guang's body flashed. He stomped on the ground with the tip of his foot and dashed forward with a speed that was twice as fast as before. In an instant, he was behind Feng Bumian. "You must not have heard what I said to my servants. It is not too late for me to tell you now. I, the Zhen Wu Saint Emperor, Chen Guang, am invincible among those three levels above me. The three of you are not even worthy of carrying my shoes! Go to hell! "
His hand rose and his fist fell.
Feng Bumian turned around and swung his sword.
Chen Guang did not pull back his fist that was aimed at Feng Bumian's chest. Instead, he reached out with his left hand and grabbed the sword. At the same time, his right fist landed squarely on Feng Bumian's chest.
"You don't know this, but I'm actually best at fighting with my hands."
Feng Bumian fell backward. Blood spurted from his mouth like a fountain.
Three years ago, when Chen Guang had just broken through to the Martial Realm, he could already kill ten Martial Emperors with ease. Now that three years had passed, his cultivation had improved a lot. Coupled with his perfect physical body, it was not too easy for him to deal with a Martial Emperor of the same level.
However, Chen Guang felt a chill on his back. The lady who looked like she was frozen in shock had appeared behind him like a ghost. The silver dagger in her hand had pierced through Chen Guang's back and stabbed into his abdomen.
Chen Guang's expression did not change as he turned around and punched.
The lady dropped her dagger and retreated.
Chen Guang raised his hand and activated his Earth Explosion ability. A green bean-sized ball appeared on his fingertip.
Chen Guang used his Finger Flick ability and his dart skills. The ball flew straight at the lady's eye.
She screamed in pain and retreated while holding her right eye. Blood spurted out from between her fingers. She begged, "Don't! I'm begging you … "
"I'm sorry. You see me as a soft-hearted person. That's just a facade I put on for the people outside."
Chen Guang slapped the lady's forehead, and she stopped breathing.
In an instant, he had killed three people in a row. Then, he pulled out the beautiful woman's small sword from his back and muttered to himself with an expressionless face, "As the only player in the Land of True Martial, I'm not that kind to every NPC, okay?"
Actually, he had already seen through their tricks from the very beginning.
The wound that the lady's dagger left on his body looked scary, but it was not enough to kill him immediately. With the Earth Explosion ability activated, it would not take long for him to recover, so there was no need to worry about it.
He took out the silk from Feng Bumian's pocket and memorized the route. Then, Chen Guang walked on the waves.
This Martial Monarch's cave truly did not disappoint him. He actually found three Martial Emperor level Martial Techniques inside, as well as many other Martial Techniques of various levels. Chen Guang collected them all.
As for the so-called natural treasures in the abode, he was not interested. They were things that others cared about to improve their bone structure. For someone like him who had maxed out his bone structure, they were meaningless.
However, Chen Guang carried them on his back. He had no use for them, but they were useful to his subordinates.
If the three followed him into the abode, he would not want any of the things that they cared about. All he cared about was the martial arts.
What was truly useful to him was still the underground lake outside.
The river had dried up a long time ago. It was as if the lake was the only trace left behind by the vast river. The Yin and Yang energy in the lake was very dense. It was at least as dense as the fifth level of the Martial Lord's rule. It was about fifty times denser than on Earth.
Following the directions on the silk, Chen Guang stepped on the lake and looked down. From the bottom, a stone platform appeared.
Chen Guang sat cross-legged in the depression in front of the stone platform. The lower half of his body was submerged in the water. The natural treasures around him were treated as food. He began to meditate.
Ever since he came to the Zhen Wu University, he had spent most of his time studying different martial arts. This was the first time he was so focused on circulating the inner force in his body.
In the blink of an eye, three days had passed. The Yin and Yang energy in the lake had been depleted by half. He felt a crisp sound inside his body. His power had officially broken through the limit of a martial artist. He had become a hero.
The concentration of Yin and Yang energy in the lake was no different from the outside world. There was no point in staying here any longer. Chen Guang stood up and left.
When he passed by the bodies of Feng Bumian and the other two, Chen Guang felt sorry for them.
Feng Bumian's subordinates saw that he was the only one who came out, so they surrounded him.
One of the leaders stepped forward and asked, "Where is Commander Yufeng?"
Waving his hand, Chen Guang casually replied, "He's dead. The three of them are all dead. "
"What? How did they die? Weren't they fine the last few times? Speak! Did you plot against them?! "The commander was enraged.
Spreading his hands out, Chen Guang replied, "It can't be considered a sneak attack. I just killed the three of them without much effort. Why? You guys want to take revenge for your master?"
Chen Guang stretched his neck to count. There were about a hundred of Feng Bumian's soldiers. He mumbled to himself, "Killing so many people at once is a disgrace to my good name, but I can't just stretch my neck and wait for others to kill me, right? The world will understand my difficulties in the future. So, should I do it now? "
Unexpectedly, the angry soldier knelt on the ground the next second. "Greetings, Zhen Wu Saint Emperor!"
Damn, they were all like this.
Chen Guang waved his hand impatiently and walked away without turning back. He said coldly, "Send the order. Send the martial arts in Feng Bumian and the other two's territories to Zhen Wu Saint Emperor City, and I will spare your lives. Otherwise, I will hunt you down endlessly."
