After King Xi was ambushed last time, he had specially strengthened the defenses around him. Now that the outer barrier had been breached, he had to be notified. When he heard the emergency alarm, he turned to Shi Yanxin and asked, "Esteemed Master?"
Shi Yanxin only nodded silently at him.
King Xi's heart calmed down a lot. Although they couldn't immediately invite Zhang Yu over, they couldn't possibly not prepare in advance due to the threat of the golden-armored man.
After Wang Duo charged through the barrier, he turned into a streak of spiritual light and flew through the air, quickly approaching the royal boat. His scarlet crystal eyes flickered. He knew that it wasn't difficult to break through the royal boat's defenses. The biggest obstacle was the influence of the illusion technique, which made it impossible for him to distinguish between reality and illusion.
If this illusion wasn't broken, he wouldn't be able to successfully kill King Xi.
However, he was more confident now. He believed that his connection with the Armor of Ultimate Benevolence wasn't close enough, so he wasn't able to fully utilize the power of the armor, which was why he was confused by the illusion technique. However, things were different now. Moreover, he was on guard in advance, so it wouldn't be so easy to confuse him.
As he flew, he suddenly felt something strange. He discovered that the royal boat in front of him had changed slightly. It seemed like it was just an ordinary flying boat, and the real royal boat wasn't here. However, when he looked again, the royal boat still looked the same.
He couldn't help but frown. The illusion technique didn't completely turn the fake into the real. Instead, it made you doubt yourself. You doubted that what was real was fake. As long as you couldn't be completely sure, you wouldn't be able to make the most accurate judgment.
However, he sneered and maintained his momentum.
This was because, based on his previous experience, the illusion would only work on him when he was close. However, he didn't find the royal boat through direct observation. Instead, when he charged through the barrier of spiritual light, he found the royal boat through the direction of the transmission of spiritual signals. Therefore, his initial judgment couldn't be wrong.
The current situation was clearly a deliberate attempt to confuse him when he arrived.
In the blink of an eye, he had already arrived in front of the flying boat. The spiritual flames outside his body surged, and his momentum continued to crash forward!
This time, he was in the same position as the last time. After the violent collision, the powerful force penetrated a huge tunnel from the outside to the inside. He looked over and saw King Xi standing there, looking at him with a gloomy expression and a trace of confusion. Thus, he turned into a ray of light and rushed in.
However, in the instant that he entered, two cultivators appeared in front of him, attacking him from both sides.
At this time, he couldn't help but feel a sense of deja vu. Suppressing his doubts, he rushed inside and looked sideways, only to see Shi Yanxin standing there. At this time, a sword light suddenly slashed towards him. He instinctively raised his elbow and blocked the sword light. The scarlet crystal jade couldn't help but shrink back.
All of this was almost exactly the same as the last time. In particular, the Flying Sword Master was clearly restrained by the shadow doppelganger and couldn't possibly attack him at this time. This was clearly telling him that everything in front of him was an illusion!
After this thought was born, it indeed made him waver and doubt. However, in the blink of an eye, he became firm in his decision. He believed that the other party had created the same scene as the last time to make him doubt that what he saw was an illusion so that he would give up on attacking. If that was the case, then he couldn't stop because of this.
He didn't care what was going on here. All he wanted to do was to destroy the people here, as well as everything he saw.
At this moment, he was no longer the same as he was a few days ago. His strength had undergone an earth-shattering change. Even if there were many creatures here, they still wouldn't be able to stop him!
A crimson light flashed through his crystalline eyes. He casually waved his hand and sent out a ray of spiritual light, instantly killing the two Creator Realm cultivators. However, his charge towards King Xi didn't change at all. Along the way, the spiritual light on his body wildly expanded and spread to the entire royal ship. Finally, with a loud bang, the entire ship and all the living beings on it were turned to ashes in this explosion.
In another direction, King Xi stood in the royal boat and watched as the flying boat in the distance was destroyed by the spiritual power. He said with some excitement, "Master, your arrangements really fooled this person."
Wang Duo used spiritual communication to confirm the exact location of the royal boat, but in reality, the royal boat had cut off all spiritual communication with the other boats from the beginning. Moreover, he had let another flying boat handle all the information sent to the royal boat. Under the influence of the illusion, everyone also believed that the royal boat was there.
As for the transmission of information, it was simple. They only needed to line up a few Xuanxiu disciples on this flying boat and pass on important information through Xuntian Dao Zhang.
Shi Yanxin calmly said, "He'll find us soon."
The best way to fool Wang Duo was to change to an ordinary flying boat, but this method was later rejected by them.
The royal boat was the strongest defensive force in the entire fleet. Once it was attacked, everyone would naturally come to its rescue. Moreover, at first, they didn't know how Wang Duo had identified King Xi's location. If he had relied on the power of his bloodline or soul, then it would have been useless to change his flying boat. On the contrary, it would be easy to mislead his own people.
At this moment, King Xi sneered and said, "But he's still alone. This time, I won't let him go back so easily."
Last time, Wang Duo had caught him off guard. It just so happened that after the astral crystal exploded, the entire army was in chaos. He originally thought that if Wang Duo came again, he would definitely cooperate with the other higher-ups. He didn't expect that Wang Duo would still attack alone.
Now, they were already on high alert and had the support of the higher-ups. Outside, there was a spiritual barrier blocking the way. He didn't believe that he couldn't take down this person.
Shi Yanxin knew that although King Xi already knew that only Mister Tao could deal with this person, he was still confident in himself and firmly believed that the army could still encircle and annihilate this person.
In fact, this wasn't contradictory. As the commander of an army, there were times when one had to display extraordinary confidence and believe that one's side would definitely defeat the enemy, even if this sometimes went against reality.
While Wang Duo was searching for Wang Zhou's location, the creator-level alchemists and cultivators were also surrounding him. They constantly attacked him with magic tools and divine abilities. He sneered inwardly and didn't defend himself at all. He directly rushed forward. Under the expansion of the spiritual flames outside his body, all of the incoming attacks were shattered into pieces.
Back then, he was able to directly shatter the Dark Gold Heavenly Star mainly because of the power provided by the Armor of Ultimate Benevolence. However, for some reason, he was unable to reach such heights after that. Even now, it was still the same. Even so, it wasn't difficult for him to rely on the spiritual light to shatter these attacks. These people weren't even worth him stopping.
Just as he was running around in circles and searching for Wang Zhou, the spiritual shadow that he had split out was also at the most intense moment of the battle with Yao Zhenjun.
Because the two of them were fighting too quickly, almost no one was able to interfere. As the two of them fought, their strength and skills were rapidly improving.
However, under the effect of the Armor of Ultimate Benevolence, the spiritual shadow's strength was clearly increasing at a faster rate. Thus, it was able to maintain its dominance.
However, although Yao Zhenjun was at a disadvantage, it wasn't as if she couldn't fight back. Relying on her superior sword techniques, she was able to contend with it. Moreover, it wasn't as if she didn't have any tricks up her sleeve.
Just as the battle reached a point where it was almost impossible for one of them to hold on, there was a flash of brilliance. It was the visualization diagram that escaped from her body. This visualization diagram was the "Heavenly Maiden" from the Mysterious Chapter. It could also use sword techniques. In addition, apart from the sword being illuminated by the light of the heart, the sword's ability was no different from her body.
As soon as the Heavenly Maiden appeared, two "Forced Light Rotation" rapidly slashed over. Because the sword light was too fast, the spiritual shadow could only defend against one, but he couldn't block the other. Even if it couldn't cut through his spiritual defense, it still caused his body to stop for a moment. Then, the other sword light followed closely behind.
The two sword lights attacked together. Their coordination was exquisite. Every one of them slashed his body, causing the shadow to be unable to break free for a moment. Even if he tried to transform into spiritual smoke to escape, he was still slashed out by the sword. There was no other reason other than that the sword light was just too fast. It was so fast that all spiritual movements couldn't keep up with the changes. Just as there was a sign, he was cut apart.
In the midst of the continuous slashes, the aura on Yao Zhenjun's sword gradually rose. The sword light also became sharper, gradually rising up. When it reached the highest point, the sword slashed horizontally. The spiritual shadow was instantly cut in two. After a breath's time, it shattered into a ball of spiritual light and dissipated.
When cultivators fought, one's own realm and magic power were one thing. Winning or losing was another. If one could prevent the opponent's advantage from being displayed, then one's battle ability would undoubtedly be stronger. This was common in many battles where the weak defeated the strong.
When the spiritual shadow disappeared, Wang Duo immediately sensed it. He wasn't surprised, but soon after, he sneered. With a change of mind, another spiritual shadow rushed towards Yao Zhenjun.
After all, he was the stronger party. Even if one of his shadows was cut down, he could immediately create another one. It was useless no matter how many times his opponent won. As long as his spiritual power was not depleted, he would eventually be able to crush his opponent. It was almost impossible for his spiritual energy to be cut off, because when the golden spirit stone was placed in the void, he felt an endless stream of spiritual energy flowing into him with every breath he took.
King Xi watched this person move back and forth on the royal boat. Halfway through, there was almost no one who could stop him. He couldn't help but have a serious expression. At this moment, a senator walked over and said, "Your Highness …"
King Xi said, "What's the matter?"
The senator said, "Zhu Wuhu is requesting an audience with Your Highness. He said that there is something important."
King Xi was immediately displeased. If it was in the past, he would have tried to win over and appease Zhu Yeheng because of the matter of the successor. However, now that Zhu Zonghu was already his successor, there was no need for him to do anything unnecessary. Naturally, he didn't have any good feelings towards him.
He said, "What important matter could there be at this time? Tell him … Hmm?" He stared at the senator. "What method did he use to contact you?"
At this moment, Wang Duo suddenly turned his head and looked at an ordinary-looking flying boat. Under his gaze, the boat's appearance changed back and forth between the royal boat and an ordinary flying boat. His crimson crystal eyes revealed a fierce killing intent. "So it's here!"
