Under the shiny armors and inside the helmets were the faces of young men. They looked about the same age as him, but they had long lifespans. Chu Li estimated that they were around one hundred and ninety-nine years old.
To them, who had ten thousand years of lifespan, they were indeed young and had just reached adulthood. Their cultivation level was already very shocking. If Chu Li's cultivation level had not skyrocketed, he would not have been able to take on the twelve of them.
However, it was the complete opposite now. They were so overwhelmed that they could not breathe. They kept retreating and were about to collapse. It was only because Chu Li was merciful that they were not injured.
As Chu Li fought with the twelve armored warriors, he used his clairvoyance to observe the huge city on the other side. He saw twelve warriors dressed in shining armor flying out of the city. Their bodies emanated a murderous aura, and they looked like twelve iron men, majestic and imposing.
Their Light-body Technique was very high. They jumped down from the top of the city and stepped on the void as if they were walking on flat ground. They moved in a straight line and arrived in front of them in the blink of an eye. They gently patted the scabbards on their backs and the long blades were unsheathed and landed in their hands.
These long blades were taller than them, so they had to carry the long blades on their backs. They could not even pull the long blades out with their hands. They had to use their strength to shake the long blades out. Their movements were cool and fast to attract attention.
However, such cool movements contained a murderous intent. When the blades were swung, a faint arc of light appeared in the void and instantly fell on Chu Li.
"Bang bang bang bang …" Chu Li's body flashed. The sword energy of the Sword of Indifference blocked the blade energy. Then, the sword energy of the Sword of Indifference counterattacked and instantly enveloped them like a storm.
At the same time, the sword energy was mixed with the aura of the Heavenly Spirit Scripture and turned into a purer sword energy. They could not guard against it and did not dare to be careless. They had to give their all for each sword energy and soon, they felt tired.
Chu Li's sword energy seemed endless. It was denser and denser than a storm. They had no time to care about anything else and could only try their best to resist. If they were distracted for even a moment, the sword energy would hit them.
"Bang bang bang bang …" Chu Li's sword energy became denser and denser. He could feel the power of the Soul Lotus. It could actually nourish the soul and the consumption of spiritual energy was unusually low.
Unfortunately, there was only one drawback. The soul was trapped and could not return to the Outland.
"Formation!" A shout was heard.
Twenty-four armored warriors suddenly flew up and took up positions in the sky. Then, they floated toward Chu Li and surrounded him.
"Ding, ding, ding, ding …" The clear ringing sound was continuous and rapid, like rain hitting a banana leaf.
The Blade Qi formed a huge capstan, trapping Chu Li within. The Blade Qi spun faster and faster, as if it wanted to grind him to pieces. Chu Li's Sword Qi kept blocking, but he couldn't stop it.
His Shield of Vigor was constantly hit by the saber aura, but because the Heavenly Spirit Scripture was extremely pure, even when the saber aura came close to his body, it could not break through the Shield of Vigor. The sound it made was the sound of metal colliding.
His eyes suddenly flashed with a deep blue brilliance.
"Bang, bang, bang, bang …" Several people were sent flying, and the array formation was immediately broken.
The thing that Chu Li was least afraid of now was formations. He could control an area of one mile around him and render any formation ineffective. Moreover, the formation of these twenty-four people was not exactly exquisite. It was just a rough formation, with the power of the twenty-four people stacked on top of each other.
Chu Li continued to use the God Slaying Thunder Sword.
"Bang, bang, bang …" More and more people were sent flying. When they landed on the ground, they were dispirited and dispirited, unable to fight anymore.
After a while, all twenty-four people had fallen, and Chu Li was the only one left standing.
He frowned at one of the armored people and scoffed. "Ridiculous!"
That person pulled off his helmet, revealing a resolute middle-aged face. There was an awe-inspiring righteousness between his brows, and no one dared to underestimate him.
He said in a deep voice, "This is the territory of the King of Southern Zhennan. People from the Southern Border are forbidden from entering. I am the Guard Sergeant Mo Zhengyi of the King of Southern Zhennan!"
Chu Li said, "I am Chu Li, a disciple of the Grand Supreme Peak!"
"You're a disciple of the Grand Supreme Peak?" Mo Zhengyi scoffed.
Chu Li nodded slowly. "Now that the Grand Supreme Peak is in a bad situation, would I pretend to be one?"
Mo Zhengyi frowned and scoffed. "You must have rushed back after hearing the news from the Grand Supreme Peak?"
Chu Li said slowly, "I heard that someone was attacking the Grand Supreme Peak, so I came to help!"
"You're originally from the Southern Border, right?" Mo Zhengyi asked.
Chu Li said, "That's right."
This could not be hidden from others. Gu Sitong was from the Southern Border, but he had never been to the Northern Border. He had thought of escaping to the Northern Border, but the Northern Border's pursuit of the Distraction Technique was even more ferocious, and there were too many martial arts masters in the Northern Border.
Chu Li's experience was in the Southern Border. He knew nothing about the Northern Border, so he admitted it calmly. Otherwise, he could have easily seen through him.
Although this Mo Zhengyi was sent flying by the God Punishing Thunder Sword, his spiritual power was strong enough to block Chu Li's prying.
Mo Zhengyi shook his head. "You're too late. The Grand Supreme Peak is no longer here, and no one knows who destroyed the Grand Supreme Peak. You won't be able to find anyone for revenge!"
Chu Li gritted his teeth and sneered. "Then I'm back to find the culprit!"
"If they can destroy the Grand Supreme Peak, do you think a mere disciple of the Grand Supreme Peak can take revenge?" Mo Zhengyi shook his head. "Now that the rare disciples of the Grand Supreme Peak have all been killed by them, you're going to be hunted down soon. It's best if you go back!"
Chu Li smiled.
Mo Zhengyi scoffed. "It's rare for people from the Southern Border to come to the Northern Border alive. Even if your martial arts are good, you'll end up the same. It's not too late to turn back now!"
Chu Li said, "I've made up my mind. I'm going to the Grand Supreme Peak!"
"Hmph, you're courting death!" Mo Zhengyi frowned and sneered. He cast a sidelong glance at him. "Do you think you're stronger than the elders of the Grand Supreme Peak? You're probably a disciple that the disciples of the Grand Supreme Peak accepted by chance when they traveled to the Southern Border, right? "
Chu Li remained silent.
Mo Zhengyi said, "Forget it. If you want to live or die, no one can stop you. Do you really want to enter the Northern Border?"
"Yes." Chu Li nodded slowly.
"Good, you're qualified to enter the city since you're able to resist our joint attack!" Mo Zhengyi said. "Let's go, enter the city!"
He glanced at the rest of the people. They struggled to stand up, but they did not look at Chu Li with malicious eyes. Instead, they looked at him with admiration. No wonder he dared to come from the Southern Border. He really had amazing skills. He was able to resist the siege of twenty-four people and was qualified to enter the city.
Chu Li asked, "Does everyone who enters the Northern Border have to do this?"
Mo Zhengyi scoffed. "This is the kindness of our Royal Highness. Those who can't pass through our blade formation should return to the Southern Border as soon as possible. They'll die if they enter the Northern Border."
Chu Li said, "Thank you very much."
He did not feel the killing intent from Mo Zhengyi and the others. He only felt their killing intent. Every one of them had taken human lives and killed many people. It was obvious that this Royal Highness was not a kind person.
Mo Zhengyi said, "Once you pass through the Imperial Residence's jurisdiction, you'll know how kind His Royal Highness is. You're lucky that you came in from here. If you went anywhere else, you'd be dead!"
He strode back without using his Light-body Technique. Soon, he arrived at the city.
Chu Li immediately felt the murderous aura and prosperity rushing towards him.
