After returning to the blade, Yuanlu Zhi morphed into a giant monster with eight heads and eight tails.
This giant snake monster's head was as tall as the clouds, and its eyes were like turmeric grass. It was as large as a dragon, and its demonic aura was shocking.
Before such a huge monster, fists, swords, and guns had lost their meaning.
There weren't many super dimensional soldiers present. Seeing this scene, they all chose to retreat. After all, their mission had been completed. Even if they stayed, they would not be of any use. In fact, they might even be killed.
Only two people were still standing near the Martial Arts Stage, not moving at all.
These two were naturally Feng Bujue and Ruo Yu.
In the evil wind, Brother Jue looked at Ruo Yu, who stood five meters away from him, and asked, "Aren't you going to run?"
"I'm not running." Ruo Yu raised one hand to stroke the hair by her cheek and answered coldly.
"It's very dangerous to stay here," Feng Bujue reminded her.
"The same goes for you," Ruo Yu said as her hand moved to the sword at her waist.
It could be said that the two of them knew each other very well and had a tacit understanding. They both understood that no matter how strong the boss in this scenario was, for the players, the real threat came from each other.
"I'm staying here because I'm curious. I want to see the result of their battle," Feng Bujue said.
"Is that so?" Ruo Yu looked coldly at Brother Jue and calmly exposed the latter. "I thought you were waiting for Yuanlu Zhi to reveal the whereabouts of the hogyoku."
"Haha …" Feng Bujue laughed but did not say anything.
Ruo Yu continued, "In this situation, I don't think you'll leave. I'll watch this show with you."
At that moment, they could already point their swords at each other. But … the two chose not to move.
They all understood that … standing beside these three monsters, even if they were just spectating, they still needed to concentrate quite a bit. Otherwise, they might really be killed by the energy that leaked out. If players were to fight here, they would have to take the risk of being defeated by a third party. Ruo Yu obviously didn't want that.
Therefore, Feng Bujue decided to stay here. This way … he could quietly observe the information revealed by the boss battle, and he could also temporarily delay the battle between himself and Ruo Yu. It could be said to be killing two birds with one stone.
…
On the other hand, in a certain alley south of Guzhi City.
After the chaotic battle began, many people in the super dimensional army were separated from the main army. After all, there were many demons in the army. In comparison, although the super dimensional army's individual combat ability was strong, there were only a few hundred of them. It was inevitable that some of them would gradually leave the formation.
Unknowingly, Hua Jian was left alone …
"Hmph … I've finally found a good opportunity …" At this moment, Seven Kills, who had been hiding in the dark for a long time, finally felt that the time was ripe and was ready to attack.
His speed was very fast, and his attacks were decisive. From the moment he closed in on his opponent to the moment he attacked, it only took him two seconds.
Two seconds later, his [Hundred Styles, Floating Cart] hit his target. According to Seven Kills' estimation, against a player who specialized in healing, this move was enough to determine the winner.
After Seven Kills finished his attack, he turned around and muttered, "A game is a game. Don't blame me."
However, the next second … the scene that entered his sight made his expression change drastically.
"What?!"
The 'Hua Jian' that was attacked earlier started to melt like a wax figure and disappeared on the ground.
"A substitute?" The moment Seven Kills reacted, his eyes moved quickly, and soon … he caught sight of a figure ten meters away.
In the blink of an eye, he was only two meters away from Hua Jian.
Unexpectedly, at the same second, another figure appeared behind Hua Jian.
That figure was none other than Wang Tanzhi.
As it turned out … Seven Kills was not the only one who was hiding in the dark and trying to assassinate Hua Jian. As the saying went, 'The mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind.' Xiao Tan had been staring at the head for a long time, and … he had already noticed Seven Kills' presence. Therefore, he had been waiting for Seven Kills to make the first move so that he could act when the time came.
If Seven Kills succeeded, then Xiao Tan's target would naturally shift to Seven Kills; if Seven Kills' first attack failed, then Xiao Tan would be able to finish him off and kill Hua Jian before he could regain his footing.
Humph … This kid … is really merciless. At this moment, Seven Kills thought to himself, Oh well … I don't mind letting him have this kill. It's just some Skill Points. One less opponent is one less opponent.
Xiao Tan's thoughts were similar to Seven Kills'. It was the right choice not to rush out first. I knew Hua Jian would use [Substitute Wax Figure], but … this skill can't be used twice in a short period of time. This kill … I'll take it!
One in front, one behind, the blade, the wind from the fist.
They were as fast as the wind and as fierce as lightning.
Hua Jian was a player who specialized in medic, and her level was the lowest among them. It was inevitable that she would become the target of everyone. Before this, due to the large crowd, it was inconvenient for the players to attack their 'allies', but now … there was no one around, so there was no need for them to hold back.
Seeing that Hua Jian was attacked from both sides, and both of them were experts who could kill her in one hit, it seemed like … her life in this scenario had come to an end.
But … there was no trace of panic or despair on her face. Instead, there was a cold smile on her lips.
Ping! Ping!
The next moment, there were two clangs, and two shadows appeared.
Wang Tanzhi's military knife and Seven Kills' gauntlets were blocked.
Because … two great swordsmen had already arrived at Hua Jian's side to protect him.
"Cough … Master Hua Jian was right …" Tachibana King's blade trembled, and he forced Seven Kills back several meters.
"So … the two of you are really spies sent by Lu Zhi." Black Iron King unleashed his sword aura and forced Xiao Tan back ten meters.
As soon as the two Sword Heroes who had already recovered from the treatment entered the arena, the situation of the battle immediately changed.
"Of course, why would I lie to you?" She paused to look at Seven Kills and Xiao Tan. "I told you, as long as I act alone, they will give themselves away."
"Tsk … we've been tricked." Seven Kills' face darkened, and he thought to himself, I thought I was the hunter, and she was the prey. But … I'm the prey, and she … is a brilliant hunter who dares to use herself as bait. With that in mind, his eyes shifted. "Ha … the people from Underworld Frontline are all so difficult to deal with …"
"Hmm …" On the other side, Xiao Tan narrowed his eyes and thought, We've been tricked … This time, we've been tricked …
Xiao Tan and Seven Kills understood that in this situation, they were forced into a dead end. Explanations … were probably superfluous. Even if the two of them had a glib tongue, it would appear pale and powerless in the face of what had just happened. If they abandoned the fight and fled … the news that they were 'spies from Lv Zhijun' would soon spread. By then, the super dimensional army would come after them, and Lu Zhi would not hold back either. In short, they would be in deep trouble.
Therefore, there was only one choice left for them, which was to kill Hanajian, Tachiyo Tachiyo, and Izusuke Ebon right here. There would be no witnesses after all. But … this was easier said than done. It would be fine if they were on the same side, but the problem was … they had to be wary of each other. From the looks of it, it was not two against three, but one against three. Which side would have the support of a healer, so it was obvious which side would have the advantage.
"There's no other way … We can only bite the bullet." After thinking for a few seconds, Xiao Tan, who was at his wit's end, decided to use violence to solve the problem.
"Humph … Let's fight. We'll just kill everyone here." Seven Kills was in a similar situation. Compared to using his brain, he preferred to use his fists to solve problems.
…
At the same time, Guzhi City, Tianshou.
Boom!
With a loud explosion, the door of Tianshou Pavilion was broken.
The demon army guarding the door collapsed like wheat. They were utterly defeated and could not stop the people who broke through the door.
Wind Mark, Yuen Musashi, and Hei Zi — the three elites of the Xuangang Sword Formation were unstoppable. They arrived at Tianshou Pavilion as fast as they could.
After they broke through the door, they did not detect any traps or formations. There were no soldiers or demon generals guarding Tianshou Pavilion either.
Seeing this, the three of them were suspicious, but they did not hesitate. They exchanged glances and went up to the top floor of Tianshou Pavilion together.
In less than a minute, they arrived at the top floor.
They saw that … the pavilion was spacious and empty except for a sarcophagus full of curses in the middle. The sarcophagus was chained up with heavy iron chains, and the door was tightly shut. Waves of purplish-black, ferocious demonic energy seeped out of the sarcophagus. It was chilling.
"Is this … the seal that Yuanlü Zhi used to draw space-time …" Yuen Musashi muttered.
"Most likely …" Hei Zi said. "Such demonic energy is no small matter. If there is anything in this city that can use the seal, it's this sarcophagus."
"Then … what should we do now?" Yuen Musashi looked at the other two beside him.
His question was the same as Wind Mark and Hei Zi's.
Even if they could confirm that this was the seal, what should they do with it? Now that Koji was dead, they did not know how to destroy the seal. What if the three of them did something wrong? Not only did they fail to return each space-time to its original place, but they also dragged other space-time into it? Wouldn't that be a joke?
"Open the sarcophagus …" Wind Mark thought for a moment, then said coldly, "… We'll talk about it later."
"Hmm … that makes sense," Hei Zi said, picking up his two flags. "There's nothing wrong with opening it and taking a look."
Yuen Musashi did not have any objections to this suggestion. So, the three of them each broke the chains on the sarcophagus.
Suddenly, demonic energy gushed out of the sarcophagus. Black wind blew, and the door of the sarcophagus slowly opened.
A few seconds later, the object in the sarcophagus appeared before the three of them.
At this moment, Yuan Wu Zang, Feng Zhi Hen, and Hei Zi all revealed shocked expressions at the same time and said three words in unison, "Yuan Lu Zhi?"
