"Alright then. Be careful, brother. Luo Jian has already reached mid Saint." With that, Changyang Hu immediately went to support the others. Although he was very surprised that Jianchen had appeared in the third zone, Changyang Hu understood that this was not the time to get to the bottom of things.
With the addition of Jianchen and Tie Ta, Changyang Hu and the others who had originally been at a disadvantage were now on par with their opponents. And because of Tie Ta's existence, they even gained a slight advantage. The battle had reached a stalemate and no one could gain the upper hand in a short period of time.
Jianchen smiled faintly as he looked at the dark-faced Luo Jian, "Luo Jian, looks like not only will your robbery fail today, the monster cores you're clamoring for will probably change owners."
Luo Jian became furious when he heard that. A sharp light flashed through his eyes as he growled, "Changyang Shōten, you don't have the right to take away our monster cores."
Jianchen looked at Luo Jian with a sliver of disdain. He said indifferently, "Then let's try. Let's see if I have the ability to take away your monster cores." With that, Jianchen did not waste any more words. With a sway of his body, he charged toward Luo Jian as quickly as he could. Using the cover of the night, the metal rod in his hand stabbed toward Luo Jian's chest like a venomous snake.
A sliver of hidden killing intent flashed through Luo Jian's eyes. His huge sword suddenly flickered with azure light as he swung it toward Jianchen with an unstoppable force. Since Luo Jian possessed wind-attributed Saint Force and had reached mid Saint, he was much faster than the others. His attack was extremely fast, leaving behind a series of afterimages.
Jian Chen's expression remained the same as he stared at the huge sword that was heading towards him. He then shifted his body slightly, dodging the huge sword by a hair's breadth. The iron rod in his hand did not change its trajectory, directly stabbing towards Luo Jian's chest.
Luo Jian's expression changed slightly. Jianchen's attack was extremely fast. At this critical moment, he did not have time to pull back his sword to block. However, his reaction was not slow either. He had already mobilized all of his wind-attributed Saint Force and controlled his body to rapidly retreat. At the same time, he did his best to pull back his sword.
Luo Jian's retreat was extremely fast. When Jianchen's metal rod touched his clothes, Luo Jian had already escaped from Jianchen's attack range. At the same time, he pulled back his sword and gathered Saint Force in his hands. He swung his sword at Jianchen.
Luo Jian's attack was extremely simple, but in Jianchen's eyes, it was just a random slash without any technique. Even so, Jianchen did not dare to underestimate Luo Jian's attack.
Jianchen leaped up and dodged Luo Jian's sword. He then kicked off a nearby tree and leaped toward Luo Jian. With a slight tremble of his arm, Jianchen left behind a faint afterimage as he extended his arm at an extremely fast speed. The metal rod in his hand turned into a streak of black light, stabbing toward Luo Jian with lightning speed. It was impossible to see with the naked eye.
Luo Jian only saw a blur before Jianchen's metal rod arrived in front of him. This time, Jianchen's sword was so fast that he did not even have time to react. He did not even have time to dodge. The tip of the metal rod had already stabbed into his chest.
Luo Jian's expression suddenly changed. He stared at the metal rod that had already stabbed into his chest in shock. His eyes were filled with disbelief, despair, and fear. With the speed of the rod, he was unable to block it at all. He did not even have the ability to stop it because the rod was just too fast this time. It was so fast that even an intermediate Saint with wind-attributed Saint Force like him could not react in time. If the rod had pierced Luo Jian's chest, he would have been heavily injured even if he did not die.
However, what happened next exceeded everyone's expectations. Just as Jianchen's metal rod stabbed into Luo Jian's chest, it suddenly stopped and a strand of pure Saint Force surged into Luo Jian's body. Afterward, Jianchen pulled out the rod and somersaulted in the air to reduce the force of the charge. He flew over Luo Jian's head and landed firmly on the ground.
The strand of pure Saint Force he had left in Luo Jian's body suddenly exploded as soon as the rod left Luo Jian's body. The ripples of energy wreaked havoc in Luo Jian's body, destroying his organs.
Spurt! Luo Jian immediately spat out a mouthful of blood. The intense pain coming from his body made him, who rarely experienced such a feeling, involuntarily let out a miserable scream. He fell to the ground and rolled around in pain without caring about his image.
Luo Jian's miserable cries were exceptionally miserable, immediately attracting the attention of everyone who was fighting. However, when their gazes landed on Luo Jian who was rolling around in pain on the ground, apart from Tie Ta, everyone could not help but be stunned. From their eyes, there was still a sliver of deep shock, but there was even more disbelief.
After dealing with Luo Jian, Jianchen did not plan on letting the group of people go. He charged into the circle with his rod. If he had not coincidentally encountered Changyang Hu today, not only would all the monster cores in Changyang Hu's hands have ended up in their hands, he would probably have been heavily injured as well.
With the addition of Jianchen, the originally equal strength between the two sides was immediately broken. Although Jianchen's Saint Force was not as strong as everyone else's, his battle prowess was undoubtedly the strongest among them.
In his previous life, Jianchen had become famous in the Jianghu with his unbreakable sword skills. Moreover, his sword skills had reached perfection, making it impossible for people to guard against. Therefore, his attacks were extremely fast, sometimes so fast that it was unimaginable. It was impossible for people to catch him with their eyes. Although Jianchen was currently using an iron rod and was unable to display his true strength, it was still not something these inexperienced students could compare with. Under his exquisite sword skills, the battle quickly ended.
Until the end of the battle, no one had discovered that Jianchen was not using a Saint Weapon, but only an iron rod.
After the battle, the few students who had snatched the monster cores were all lying on the ground with wounds on their bodies. There was a bloody hole in each of their bodies, and they looked at Jianchen with fear in their eyes.
Looking at the eight youths lying on the ground, although Changyang Hu and the other three suffered injuries of varying degrees, their eyes revealed a victorious smile. The three youths who were with Changyang Hu looked at Jianchen with admiration and gratitude.
"Changyang Hu, I didn't expect you to have such a powerful fourth brother. You really surprised us."
"Yeah, Changyang Hu, although I've heard that your fourth brother's strength is not bad, I didn't expect him to be so powerful. Even Luo Jian, a mid-level Saint, was defeated by him. Speaking of which, it's all thanks to your fourth brother's help this time. Otherwise, I'm afraid we wouldn't have been able to keep the monster cores in our hands."
… …..
The three youths were clearly on good terms with Changyang Hu, and they all sighed with joy.
At this moment, Jianchen came to Changyang Hu's side and glanced at the wounds on his body. He asked with concern, "Brother, are your injuries serious?"
Hearing this, Changyang Hu shook his head indifferently. He was pleasantly surprised and looked at Jianchen happily, "It's fine, it's fine. These are just some minor injuries. Don't forget that my Saint Force is of the earth attribute. My defence is much stronger than ordinary people's." Changyang Hu paused and asked, "By the way, fourth brother, why did you come to the third zone? I remember that you weren't a Saint before we entered the forest. Also, when did you become so powerful that you could defeat Luo Jian?" Changyang Hu asked curiously.
Jianchen smiled, "Brother, I'll tell you about these things when we have time. Right now, let's deal with the matter at hand." Jianchen glanced at the students lying on the ground, "Brother, how do you plan on punishing these people?"
Changyang Hu thought for a moment, "Fourth brother, I'll leave it to you. If it weren't for you, all of our monster cores would have fallen into their hands."
Jianchen smiled meaningfully, "Since that's the case, why should we be polite to them? Let's just plunder all the monster cores in their Space Belts."
Jianchen's suggestion received everyone's approval. Afterwards, Changyang Hu and the other three took off all the Space Belts under the resentful and angry gazes of Luo Jian's group before plundering all the monster cores inside. After a round of counting, the eight of them had placed over 130 monster cores in their Space Belts.
Even Jianchen was surprised by this number. Changyang Hu exclaimed, "I didn't expect them to have so many monster cores. It seems like they must have robbed a lot of people before. Otherwise, it would have been impossible for them to kill so many magical beasts in three days with their strength."
Jianchen nodded in agreement, "Brother, let's divide these monster cores into six parts. We'll each have one."
"That won't do." As soon as Jianchen finished speaking, a young man stood up and said, "Changyang Shōten, it's all thanks to you and this brother that we were able to obtain these monster cores. We didn't contribute much, so you should keep these monster cores yourselves. Don't share them with us."
The young man's words were quickly approved by the other two. Immediately, another person said, "Oz is right. Changyang Shōten, if it weren't for you and this brother, we wouldn't have been able to keep our own monster cores, let alone defeat them. Now that we can protect our own monster cores from falling into their hands, we feel very satisfied. As for these monster cores, we won't take them."
"That's right. Changyang Shōten, it's all thanks to you and this brother that we were able to obtain so many monster cores. How can we have the nerve to share them?"
Jianchen's eyes flashed with a bright light. His gaze was fixed on the expressions of the three people. However, he could only see sincerity in their eyes. There wasn't the slightest hint of falsehood in them. Jianchen saw the expressions of the three people and it made Jianchen's impression of them a lot better. However, Jianchen couldn't help but admire his brother, Changyang Hu. He didn't expect him to be able to make friends with these three straightforward characters. Although Changyang Hu looked a little silly, the attentive Jianchen understood that Changyang Hu wasn't stupid.
