Could he win?
This was the question in Mo Shanshi's mind.
However, Yan Yin, who was engulfed by the golden radiance, quickly got the answer to this question.
That was because Yan Yin felt a terrifying force that was so powerful that it shocked him the moment the golden radiance engulfed him.
It felt as if an ocean was surrounding him, surging violently and boundlessly.
Most importantly, he could see that the injuries on his body were recovering at a speed that was visible to the naked eye.
"This brat … is really powerful!" If Yan Yin's previous impression of Fang Zhengzhi was that he was shameless and arrogant, now, he was truly astonished.
He was extremely astonished.
However, Fang Zhengzhi obviously did not notice Yan Yin's expression and thoughts. He did not panic or fear when he struck out with his sword.
This was a form of confidence that came from his own abilities. It was as though if one owned a mountain of gold, one would not be afraid of ordering a bowl of steaming hot dumplings at a restaurant.
Boom! The sword radiance and the sharp claws collided. The sharp sound of metal rubbing against each other was so loud that it hurt one's ears.
Following that, a violent blast of air also burst forth.
The airwave rumbled and the fur on Monster Emperor Baizhi's head was completely stuck to her back. Her pointy fox ears swayed continuously and the lightning on them was blinding.
Fang Zhengzhi's blue long robe was also blown by the wind and made a flapping sound. His hair band was completely blown off and his long hair flowed behind his back.
However, this did not affect Fang Zhengzhi's next move.
He did not choose to remain at the same spot to block the attack. Instead, he tightened his grip on the hilt of his sword and charged towards Monster Emperor Baizhi with the Traceless Sword in his hand.
"This brat really blocked Monster Emperor Baizhi's attack!" Mo Shanshi's eyeballs almost popped out as he stared at Fang Zhengzhi.
"No, he did not just block it. This brat already has the ability to fight one-on-one with Monster Emperor Baizhi!" Mu Qingfeng was also extremely astonished.
Once upon a time, Fang Zhengzhi could not even last one move in front of him. But now, in just a few months, he realized that Fang Zhengzhi had grown to a stage where even he could not help but be shocked.
Luck?
Mu Qingfeng wanted to attribute all of this to luck. However, when he thought about Fang Zhengzhi's experiences over the past few months, he could not bring himself to blame it on luck.
After entering the Holy Region, he had been severely injured by Yan Xiu.
Then, he was captured in the Yin Yang Hall and used his life to exchange for Yan Xiu's survival. Then, he was thrown into the Middle Stream Cauldron of the Nine Pinnacles Mountain.
Could this be considered luck?
Furthermore, although Mu Qingfeng wasn't too sure about what happened in Ling Yun Tower, Qian Ye's sudden death and Qian Yu's successful ascension to become the new leader of Ling Yun Tower. Mu Qingfeng wouldn't believe that Fang Zhengzhi had nothing to do with it.
Most importantly, just now …
Fang Zhengzhi was clearly not as powerful as Monster Emperor Baizhi. However, he was able to "resurrect" from the dead and improve his powers.
Was this really luck?
No, this was an opportunity!
The same opportunity appeared in front of Mu Qingfeng, Mo Shanshi, and the rest. It was fair and just, but the only one who could grasp it was Fang Zhengzhi.
It was his aggressiveness and courage that gave Fang Zhengzhi the confidence to try it.
However, in the hearts of Mu Qingfeng, Mo Shanshi, and the rest, they had already lost the courage to try it. All they could do was to stick to the old rules.
Mu Qingfeng looked at Fang Zhengzhi who was fighting against Monster Emperor Baizhi. He sighed when he saw Fang Zhengzhi's sharp sword radiance. Perhaps, he was really getting old …
…
The sword radiance streaked across the sky.
Fang Zhengzhi's attacks were not too stunning. However, they were so sharp that even the Monster Emperor did not dare to take them head-on.
"This brat seems to have … changed!" Monster Emperor Baizhi suddenly had this thought after defending against Fang Zhengzhi's three consecutive attacks.
It was not because Fang Zhengzhi's attacks had suddenly become so sharp. Instead, it was because the feeling and aura of Fang Zhengzhi's attacks had undergone a drastic change.
If Fang Zhengzhi's attacks were said to be hurried, vicious, and ruthless, as if he wanted to end the battle as quickly as possible …
However, Fang Zhengzhi's attacks had changed. They were no longer hurried, vicious, and ruthless. Instead, they were sharp, stable, and continuous like the waves of the sea.
This was a change in his aura. Similarly, it also represented a change in his state of mind.
Hurried, vicious, and ruthless represented Fang Zhengzhi's state of mind to take advantage of the situation. He wanted to catch her off guard and take advantage of the situation to find her flaw so that he could kill her with one strike.
However, Fang Zhengzhi no longer took advantage of the situation. This could only mean that Fang Zhengzhi's state of mind had become extremely confident. That was because only with strong confidence could Fang Zhengzhi dare to fight with her head-on.
Boom! A loud sound was heard as the sword radiance and the sharp claws collided again. Then, the airwave swept across the sky and formed a gigantic tornado.
This scene was undoubtedly shocking to the sages and the Monster Kings. That was because Fang Zhengzhi had made too many attacks.
There were a total of five attacks!
However, he did not take a step back. Instead, he pressed forward and attacked Monster Emperor Baizhi continuously. He had no intention of escaping.
Most importantly, Monster Emperor Baizhi did not retaliate.
"Fang Zhengzhi, he … he managed to come to a draw with Monster Emperor Baizhi alone?!"
"That's too terrifying! How could there be such a thing! "
"That's the Monster Emperor! The most powerful person in the Holy Region. What about Fang Zhengzhi? He's only 18 years old, yet he managed to come to a draw with Monster Emperor Baizhi? "
Being able to break through to the Sage State, they naturally had an extraordinary state of mind and pride. However, after witnessing the battle between Fang Zhengzhi and Monster Emperor Baizhi, the pride in the sages' hearts no longer existed.
This was a huge blow!
It was as if one had worked hard for half a lifetime, yet someone else achieved it within a year or two. It was impossible for one to not feel any resentment towards Bozhi.
"Lord!"
"Roar …"
"Roar roar!"
The Monster Kings were also shocked. After all, in their hearts, Monster Emperor Baizhi was like a god. She was so high and mighty that it was impossible for her to lose.
Yet now, Monster Emperor Baizhi was being held back by an 18-year-old human.
How could they not be shocked?
How could they not be afraid?
"Perhaps, this brat could really change the outcome of the battle!" Mo Shanshi's face turned red. Having fought with Monster Emperor Baizhi before, he knew how powerful Monster Emperor Baizhi was.
The fact that Fang Zhengzhi was able to make five consecutive attacks while Monster Emperor Baizhi was in her monster form meant that he had the ability to fight with Monster Emperor Baizhi.
Even though he might lose in the end.
But that was enough.
…
"Fang Zhengzhi, do you really think you can fight with me?!" Monster Emperor Baizhi spoke human language and a chilling gaze flashed in her green eyes.
"Can't I?" Fang Zhengzhi asked. At the same time, he dashed through the violent wind and waves and leaped above Monster Emperor Baizhi's head with the sound of his clothes fluttering.
He slashed his sword down from the sky.
The demonic purple light did not dissipate. Like a crescent moon, it sliced towards Monster Emperor Baizhi's neck with a sharp whistle.
"Very well, I would like to see what you can do!" Monster Emperor Baizhi seemed to be really angry. Instead of using her sharp claws to block the sword radiance, she pounced forward.
At the same time, Monster Emperor Baizhi dodged Fang Zhengzhi's attack. Meanwhile, her gigantic body shrunk instantly. However, her nine fox tails grew rapidly at the same time.
It was a strange scene.
The shrinking of her body meant that the thickness of her fur was also decreasing. However, it was obvious that she had improved tremendously in terms of speed.
This kind of change was very easy to achieve.
That was because after Monster Emperor Baizhi dodged Fang Zhengzhi's attack, her nine fox tails whipped towards Fang Zhengzhi from all directions.
Monster Emperor Baizhi finally started her counterattack.
Fang Zhengzhi's expression changed. He could obviously see the change in Monster Emperor Baizhi. Moreover, he could clearly feel that Monster Emperor Baizhi's speed had become extremely fast.
He did not think too much about it. After all, the nine fox tails were already in front of him.
Dodge!
Dodge again, dodge again, dodge again …
Fang Zhengzhi's body twisted continuously in the air and made exaggerated movements. Sometimes, he twisted his waist, sometimes he lifted his buttocks, and sometimes he did the Chinese character '大'.
After exerting a lot of effort, he finally dodged the whip of the nine fox tails.
However, he did not have much time to rest. That was because Monster Emperor Baizhi's nine fox tails had whipped towards him again.
"…" Fang Zhengzhi seemed to understand Monster Emperor Baizhi's frustration just now. With her gigantic body, she was unable to dodge his sword radiance and could only passively take the hits.
Yet now, the situation seemed to have turned around.
Monster Emperor Baizhi sacrificed her body's defense and turned it into speed and agility. She then increased the length of her nine fox tails and successfully escaped.
As for Fang Zhengzhi …
He was successfully trapped!
Although there was only a difference of one word between the two, the difference was like heaven and earth.
It was recorded in the ancient books that the real powerful monsters had the ability to transform. They could transform into a human and confuse the living beings. They could also transform into a gigantic monster, fly in the sky, breathe out clouds and control lightning storms. They could even blend into the group of beasts and birds to avoid being hurt.
In the past, Fang Zhengzhi had always thought that it was just a legend. However, after fighting with Monster Emperor Baizhi, he knew that all legends had their origins.
What should he do?
In terms of posture, Fang Zhengzhi actually preferred to be on top and did not like to be constantly whipped and suppressed.
Therefore, he felt that he should turn around at the right time.
However, how to turn around was a problem worth pondering and discussing. After all, his strength was not as huge as Monster Emperor Baizhi's and his speed was not as agile as Monster Emperor Baizhi's. He could only rely on his vast and endless Origin Energy. However, it was obviously not very effective.
"Auntie Qian, how can you stand by and do nothing when the world is in danger?" Fang Zhengzhi puffed out his chest and raised his head. The Traceless Sword in his hand flew towards a fox tail that was whipping towards him. He twisted his butt and dodged another fox tail. At the same time, he let out a righteous shout.
"Just ask for help. I don't understand why you speak so righteously." Qian Yu waved her hand at Fang Zhengzhi in disdain. She was not moved at all.
"Auntie, save me!"
"If you said that earlier, you wouldn't have to continue suffering." Qian Yu smiled. At the same time, she tightened her grip on the two swords in her hands and charged towards Monster Emperor Baizhi without hesitation.
When Mu Qingfeng and Mo Shanshi saw this scene, they looked at each other and a bitter smile appeared on their faces.
If they did not see it with their own eyes, they would not have imagined that the new Tower Master of Ling Yun Tower, Qian Yu, could be so petty.
Of course, Qian Yu was not to be blamed.
After all, no one would feel good to have such a shameless "nephew" like Fang Zhengzhi.
"Let's go!" Mu Qingfeng said as he clenched his teeth.
"Are we not going to deal with Yun Qingwu?" Mo Shanshi looked at Yun Qingwu, who was surrounded by ten elders of the demon race in the 10-Sided Flaming Demonic Formation. He was a little hesitant.
"As long as we take down Monster Emperor Baizhi, the plan of the Monster Race and Demon Race would not be realized." Mu Qingfeng frowned but soon relaxed.
"That makes sense!" Mo Shanshi nodded when he heard this.
"Attack!"
"Attack!"
"…"
Although Mu Qingfeng and Mo Shanshi were both severely injured, the situation of the battle changed drastically with the addition of Qian Yu, Mu Qingfeng, and Mo Shanshi.
Monster Emperor Baizhi shrunk her body size and increased her speed and agility. That was her advantage, but on the other hand, her defense was greatly reduced.
In a sense, her speed and agility could not be fully unleashed when she was surrounded by so many people. That was one of the main reasons why Monster Emperor Baizhi enlarged her body size when she was fighting against four people at the same time.
She tried to find an opportunity while defending.
However, Monster Emperor Baizhi obviously could not continue with her previous strategy because Fang Zhengzhi alone was enough to force her to defend.
Therefore, how could she find an opportunity to counterattack?
"There's hope, Monster Emperor Baizhi seems to be unable to hold on any longer!"
"That's right, Fang Zhengzhi could block Monster Emperor Baizhi's attack alone. Now that Pavilion Master Mu, Valley Master Mo and Tower Master Qian have joined the fray, Monster Emperor Baizhi has no chance of winning!"
"We can counterattack now. As long as we can take down Monster Emperor Baizhi, the monster kings will not be a problem!"
The sage experts' hearts were filled with despair when they saw this scene. A strong hope quickly surged in their hearts. They stopped retreating, and started to fight back with all their might.
After all, no one really wanted humankind to lose.
This was a change in their state of mind. From certain defeat to certain victory, it was as if they had been reborn, igniting a strong confidence in their hearts.
"Fang Zhengzhi?!" Dao Xin turned to look at Fang Zhengzhi who was fighting with Monster Emperor Baizhi and clenched her fists. "I didn't expect him to change the outcome of a losing battle!"
