After Tyrant Behemoth appeared, it directly activated Absolute Strength. Space distorted as Pure Hook and Evil-Slaying Sword flew towards Tyrant Behemoth.
Although Xia Liuchuan had tried his best to escape this situation, Tyrant Behemoth's Absolute Strength was just too powerful. The two Mythical swords couldn't escape as they flew towards Tyrant Behemoth with their swords.
Zhou Wen didn't stop. Without looking at the outcome, he ran towards the Gate of Supreme Harmony.
Carrying the log, Zhou Wen couldn't run fast. Before he reached the Gate of Supreme Harmony, he suddenly heard a terrifying sound. The shockwave broke through the sound barrier, producing a terrifying sonic boom.
Zhou Wen turned his head and saw Xia Liuchuan floating in midair. He wore a strange black armor. The armor looked like some kind of black jade that emitted a mysterious black light.
Xia Liuchuan held Pure Hook and Evil-Slaying in front of him and blocked Tyrant Behemoth's punch without being sent flying.
That's … a Guardian … Zhou Wen could tell that the armor was somewhat strange. Its aura didn't resemble a Companion Beast, but it resembled a Guardian.
Furthermore, Xia Liuchuan was able to block Tyrant Behemoth in its Absolute Strength state. This wasn't something ordinary Companion Beast armor could do.
Xia Liuchuan wasn't at a disadvantage in his battle with Tyrant Behemoth. The two swords in his hands crisscrossed as he fought Tyrant Behemoth.
Seeing that Xia Liuchuan didn't have the upper hand, Zhou Wen continued running towards the Gate of Supreme Harmony. He had to escape the log first. Otherwise, even if the Guardian was in front of him, he wouldn't be able to kill it with such a log.
Zhou Wen rushed past the Gate of Supreme Harmony, but he couldn't help but stop. This was because there were many people standing in the empty space after he passed the Gate of Supreme Harmony. There were probably more than ten thousand of them.
More than ten thousand people stood in a square formation on the empty space. Each of them held a sword in their hand, but no one spoke. It was so quiet that there was no sound at all.
Upon seeing Zhou Wen arrive, the gazes of the ten thousand people turned to look at him.
At the front of the square formation stood a black-robed woman. It was none other than Xia Xuanyue whom Zhou Wen knew.
"Zhou Wen, why are you here instead of fighting Xia Liuchuan?" Xia Xuanyue asked Zhou Wen.
"Ahem, I'm just taking a stroll. It's rare for me to come to the legendary Forbidden City. I wish to see the legendary Hall of Supreme Harmony," Zhou Wen said with a light cough.
"You should go back and fight. Forbidden City isn't a place where outsiders can barge in as they please," Xia Xuanyue said.
"Since I'm already here, let me have a look." Naturally, Zhou Wen refused to retreat just like that. Although the Xia family had their guard up against him, he still had to give it a try at the Hall of Supreme Harmony.
Zhou Wen had only taken two steps forward when Xia Xuanyue raised the ancient sword in her hand. The ten thousand people raised the swords in their hands at the same time. In an instant, countless sword beams soared into the sky and gathered towards the ancient sword in Xia Xuanyue's hand.
With the augmentation of more than ten thousand ancient swords, the sword beam produced by the ancient sword in Xia Xuanyue's hand was unimaginably terrifying. Even the Golden Overlord Sword paled in comparison to it.
Zhou Wen could roughly tell that the ancient sword in Xia Xuanyue's hand might have the same effect as the Golden Harp. They could both gather a certain kind of power.
The difference was that the Golden Harp resonated with sound waves, while the ancient sword in Xia Xuanyue's hand could condense the sword beams of other sword-type Companion Beasts.
Every sword in the sword formation of more than ten thousand people was probably an Epic Companion Beast. With the augmentation of more than ten thousand sword beams, coupled with the fact that the ancient sword itself might be at the Mythical stage, the might of the sword was probably not inferior to a top Mythical one.
"Zhou Wen, it's best you return to the front and fight Xia Liuchuan," Xia Xuanyue said to Zhou Wen.
"What if I insist on touring Forbidden City?" Zhou Wen walked towards the sword formation step by step.
Xia Xuanyue brandished her sword and slashed. A terrifying sword beam poured down like a heavenly river. It was difficult for Zhou Wen to dodge, so he could only use the Golden Overlord Sword's Golden Sword Beam to meet it.
The Golden Sword Beam was indestructible. In the beginning, it did slice through the heavenly river-like sword beam, but the sword beam seemed to pour down endlessly. Soon, it drowned the Golden Sword Beam.
Xia Xuanyue didn't really slash down. She retracted the ancient sword in her hand and the sword beam circled back like a swimming dragon, returning to the sword formation.
"Please return," Xia Xuanyue said expressionlessly.
With a thought, Zhou Wen turned around and left the Gate of Supreme Harmony. The ten-thousand-person sword formation was too powerful. It would probably take him a lot of time to break through it. Zhou Wen planned on giving it a try on the unguarded corner tower to avoid wasting time.
When Xia Liuchuan saw Zhou Wen come out, he had no intention of attacking him. He continued fighting Tyrant Behemoth.
When Tyrant Behemoth used Absolute Strength, it could only fight Xia Liuchuan to a draw. Once the time limit of Absolute Strength passed, it probably wouldn't be Xia Liuchuan's match.
Zhou Wen rushed towards the corner tower and arrived in front of it. Only then did he jump up. He first jumped onto the city wall before jumping to the top of the corner tower.
It wasn't that he didn't want to jump up in one go, but that the log was too heavy. He couldn't jump up in one go.
Zhou Wen placed the log on the top of the corner tower and realized that there was no reaction at all. He tried to release the log and the word "slave" on his forehead immediately appeared.
Isn't it here? Zhou Wen was somewhat disappointed as he carried the log down the corner tower. He knew that he could only attempt the Myriad Sword Formation led by Xia Xuanyue this time.
He reckoned that the peak of Forbidden City was most likely the top of the Hall of Supreme Harmony.
After all the trouble, there wasn't much time left for Absolute Strength. He estimated that there were only about ten minutes left.
Xia Liuchuan clearly wanted to defeat Tyrant Behemoth first, so he wasn't in a hurry to chase after Zhou Wen.
Zhou Wen passed through the Gate of Supreme Harmony again and could already see the Hall of Supreme Harmony in front of him. However, with the Myriad Sword Formation in the way, it was impossible to pass without cracking the sword formation.
The might of the Myriad Sword Formation is too powerful. Among my Companion Beasts, I'm afraid only Torch Dragon's Bright Torch Vision World can withstand it. Truth Listener shattering two earrings might give me the strength to fight, but it's not convenient to expose either of them … As Zhou Wen was thinking about how to crack the sword formation, he seemed to think of something as his eyes suddenly lit up.
"Zhou Wen, why are you back?" Xia Xuanyue asked with a frown when she saw Zhou Wen running over again.
"Xia Liuchuan isn't my match. There's no point in fighting him. I still want to stroll around the Hall of Supreme Harmony," Zhou Wen said as he walked towards Xia Xuanyue.
Without any hesitation, Xia Xuanyue raised her sword again as the sword formation reappeared. A terrifying sword beam emitted a terrifying might that made one's scalp tingle from afar.
With a thought, Zhou Wen summoned a Companion Beast.
This Companion Beast wasn't Torch Dragon or Truth Listener, nor was it Demonic Neonate. Instead, it was a beautiful girl. She was unbelievably beautiful. She had long hair that made all women envious. Her eyes were extremely charming, as though one look at them would make one unable to move their eyes away.
The Xia family members in the Myriad Sword Formation couldn't help but look at the beautiful girl.
