"Roar!"
Wu Xiong's pupils constricted.
Pop! Crackle!
While he was looking at Ji Ye with his glittering head, two trees simply fell apart.
Even a rock further back, which had been polished by the mountain winds to become extremely hard over the years, was cut by a sharp sword several inches deep when the golden light slashed down!
The destructive power of this golden light was undoubtedly extremely powerful!
"Is it the power of metal?"
Ji Ye's eyes didn't change much after he dodged the golden light on Wu Xiong's forehead with Distance Reduction.
After fusing the Five Thunder Heavenly Spirit Technique, he had a deep understanding of the power of the five elements.
Judging from the appearance, the golden light should belong to the power of metal if it was classified as one of the five elements.
Those Eagle Men might not be from a certain "fantasy" dimension as he speculated at the beginning, but closer to "Cultivation".
"Pa!"
While he was thinking, the yellow light flashed on Ji Ye's body again, and he appeared behind the Eagle Man. He flipped his hand and pressed it on Wu Xiong's back casually.
Although Wu Xiong's body was instantly covered in a layer of intimidating golden light, it didn't mean much.
It was because the layer of golden light melted under Ji Ye's palm like snow under the sun.
The Nine Yang Divine Art belonged to the yang attribute, but it was obviously fire among the five elements. Since fire was the bane of metal, Wu Xiong's golden light couldn't resist it even though it was extraordinary!
"Pa!"
Therefore, Wu Xiong was flung away in the next moment. While he was in midair, the blood that he vomited uncontrollably was still steaming.
However, the golden light did manage to block part of the attack, and "Wu Xiong" was even more tenacious. Although he was blown away and vomited blood, he unleashed the green light again and ran back to the forest outside of the Twin Dragon Mount fort with the counterforce of the attack.
Because the terrain in the forest was very complicated, and a lot of fallen leaves blocked the Earth Qi to a certain extent, Ji Ye's Distance Reduction and Rock Shifting Technique were inevitably limited.
On the other hand, "Wu Xiong", who was covered in the green light, seemed to be able to ignore most of the gravity and jump on branches and in midair. Ji Ye couldn't shorten the distance between them.
During the high-speed escape and pursuit, they moved from the south side of the fort to the north side.
Whoosh!
Wu Xiong, who was covered in the green light, simply charged to the cliff.
Also, he seemed to know that someone was guarding the cliff. After he ran out of the forest, he simply soared into the sky, trying to cross the Twin Dragon Mount fort's defense line.
"Don't you dare run!"
However, exactly at this moment, a voice echoed in the defense line.
Boom!
Then, with the sound of a cannon, a black shell rose into the air and flew toward Wu Xiong, who was shrouded in a clear light.
As the place closest to the Eagle Men, the heroes guarding the cliff were Lu Zhishen, who had reached Extraordinary Rank-5, and Ling Zhen, who had advanced into Extraordinary Rank-4 after Ji Ye healed him.
Because of the urgency of the situation, Ling Zhen only used the cannonball with his Air Manipulation ability.
Boom!
However, with his precise control of the cannonball, it was impossible for Wu Xiong to dodge despite his astonishing speed. Hit by the cannonball in midair, "Wu Xiong", who was already heavily wounded, couldn't take it anymore.
The green light on his body was extinguished, and he fell from the sky only several meters away from the cliff.
After a flash of yellow light, Ji Ye caught up to the cliff too.
Whoosh!
However, exactly at this moment, on the opposite side of the cliff, a streak of green light pierced through the fog and darted at him.
Ji Ye's pupils constricted.
Pew!
A rune arrow that was almost four feet long and covered in green light hit "Wu Xiong's" head in midair. After piercing through "Wu Xiong's" head, the green light dispersed, but the rune arrow kept flying.
"Pa!"
However, it was grabbed by a hand that was covered in yellow light and couldn't move any further.
"What's the meaning of this? Is he trying to kill me?"
Ji Ye slightly frowned.
It was because the arrow wasn't aimed at him but at Wu Xiong.
Of course, it could also be a mistake!
However, Ji Ye didn't think that the Eagle Man who shot the arrow would make such a huge mistake.
Just like human beings, the Eagle Men had set up defense lines on the opposite side too.
However, the arrow just now had pierced through someone's head from two hundred meters away, and the remaining power was as strong as the Bronze Bull Arrow. It couldn't have been shot by a regular Eagle Man!
Ji Ye raised his head and looked at an alien with three eyes that were emitting a familiar coldness.
It was the Commander Eagle Man!
Hum!
At this moment, a deafening cannonball burst out!
A powerful cannonball that was boosted by the red gunpowder and the air manipulation was launched from one side of the Twin Dragon Mount. It crossed the cliff that was more than two hundred meters high and flew a certain distance toward the Commander Eagle Man.
Boom!
A second later, sparks appeared, accompanied by a lot of bluish-gray metal pieces.
However, after the white smoke from the cannonball's explosion dispersed, only the plants and the ground at the point of the explosion were blown up, not the Commander Eagle Man!
It was because the Commander Eagle Man on the opposite side had dodged Ling Zhen's cannonball with the green light on his body.
Then, the green light on his body instantly turned into a golden light, and even the sharp metal shrapnel caused by the explosion of the cluster bomb was blocked at the same time.
"Extraordinary Rank-5, or even higher?"
Ji Ye and the Commander Eagle Man looked at each other again.
As a species of cultivation civilization, it wasn't strange that the Eagle Men had been improving fast. Besides, judging from his observation on the surface of the sea last time, this Commander Eagle Man should be as powerful as he was in the settlement, and he had enough resources to improve himself.
However, Ling Zhen had raised the Frigid Iron Cannon again, as well as the Heaven Blasting Grenades that were even larger and were being aimed by the artillerymen after they attacked the Metal Men's settlement!
The original Commander Eagle Man didn't choose to wage a war against human beings.
Instead, he held his bow and disappeared from the Twin Dragon Mount's sight in the blink of an eye.
"Master! Huh, is that Wu Xiong? "
Lu Zhishen, who had just arrived with his Frost Metal Meditation Staff, was surprised.
Because he was covered in the green light and moved too fast, he didn't see the man clearly.
Only Ling Zhen, who had eyes as good as Ji Ye's as a cannoneer, was able to see what was going on and intercept the man in time. It was exactly because he saw that the man in the green light was from the fort.
Therefore, he had held back when he fired the cannonball and didn't aim at the man's head.
However, he didn't expect that the Commander Eagle Man would "kill" him from the cliff!
"It's hard to say!"
Faced with Lu Zhishen's question, Ji Ye shook his head.
This "Wu Xiong" was exactly the "spy" that Su Nongying mentioned.
When he went to the Temple of Providence to report what happened last night after his shift, he looked around abnormally, and Su Nongying noticed that something was wrong.
Then, she checked his information with the Registration Book, only to find that Wu Xiong had become Ordinary Rank-3!
It wasn't a problem for his level to rise, but it was rather strange for his level to drop.
After all, Wu Xiong was just an Ordinary Rank-6 soldier who had never learned any inner strength. It was unlikely that his cultivation would drop because of his mental derangement.
Also, theoretically speaking, he was only Ordinary Rank-3, which meant that he was even weaker than a regular person.
Of course, that alone wasn't enough to prove that something was wrong with Wu Xiong. That was why Ji Ye tested him in the name of "treatment".
Wu Xiong's reaction and the abilities that he demonstrated were definitely not something that an Ordinary Rank-3 could do!
