""Brother Fang!"
While fully exerting himself to pull on the chains, Xu Feng suddenly yelled out to Fang Ren.
"What's up?" Fang Ren asked.
Xu Feng looked at the soldiers watching them with fervent emotions, "To tell you the truth...I feel like I'm really showing off right now!"
Fang Ren's mouth twitched, not expecting this guy to also use trendy slang.
"Look at you, so full of yourself!" Fang Ren said, "We have about ten minutes left of the dicinal effect that's maintaining our realms. Aren't you the one who isn't scared of dying on the battlefield? Do you dare to join in taking down this Ninth Order beast?"
"Why wouldn't I dare! Even if it's a Twelfth-Order Void Beast today, I, Xu Feng, would dare to join Brother Fang in taking it down!" Xu Feng shouted.
"Array thod Extre! Void Spear!"
Once again, Fang Ren activated his cultivation technique. The cyclone in the sky twisted, and hundreds of transparent longspears fell from the sky, piercing through the spaces in the chains and, with them, flying toward the sea surface.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh—
A series of sounds rang out as hundreds of longspears plunged into the seabed, pinning the chains that were pulling the giant beast.
"Let's go!"
The two turned into streaks of light and dashed from the Area Two Battlefield to the outskirts.
"Array thod Extre! Empty Ming Sword!"
Arriving in front of the giant beast, Fang Ren once again condensed a kiloter-long sword in his hand and hacked it down toward the giant beast's battleaxe.
The massive impact, along with the pulling of countless soldiers, caused the Ninth-order beast's body to start falling toward the sea surface.
"Tiandao Sword Intent! Penetrating Rainbow!"
Xu Feng imdiately moved behind the beast's head as its body tilted, channeling the Tiandao Sword Sect's ultimate technique. His longsword transford into a spectrum, piercing towards the back of the beast's neck.
With one strike, a crack appeared on the beast's neck, black blood flowing out, while Xu Feng was sent flying by the powerful shock.
"Brother Fang! This guy's skin is too tough! You go on the attack! I'll hold it back!" Xu Feng's hands were numb from the shock and he imdiately called out to Fang Ren.
He knew well that Fang Ren's cultivation technique was much more powerful than his. If he kept attacking, who knew how long it would take to kill this giant beast.
The beast felt the threat and imdiately shot black spikes from its body, disrupting Fang Ren and Xu Feng's attacks.
As black spikes swirled around, Fang Ren and Xu Feng's attacks faced so difficulties, but the two together had no problem restraining the beast's movents. They could even dominate the beast in the fight, only they couldn't inflict much actual damage.
As the two pushed the beast back into the central battlefield, the other Regional Leaders who had rushed over also breathed a sigh of relief.
It was also because the two were close by that all the surrounding soldiers could see their faces clearly.
"The Fang Family...Fang Ren?!"
"Tiandao Sword Sect...Xu Feng?!"
A surge of shock rose in everyone's hearts, leaving them speechless with amazent.
Just yesterday, Xu Feng was still a disciple in the midterm phase of the Yingyue Realm. How could he have beco a Xuanyang realm peak powerhouse in just one night and half a day?!
Even more astonishing was Fang Ren. He had fought the Tiandao Princess yesterday, and with the strength of the Azure Sky Realm, dominated the Yingyue Realm. But that wasn't the main point. The main point was that just yesterday, he was only in the Azure Sky Realm too! How did he suddenly reach the Xuanyang realm peak?!
Has the world gone mad? Or have Xuanyang Peak practitioners beco as common as cabbages?
Also, shouldn't Fang Ren be on bad terms with the Tiandao Sword Sect?
How co the two of them were calling each other 'Brother Fang' and 'Feng brother' so affectionately?
Fang Zheng, who was ready to join the battle after being saved, was stunned in the air just by glancing at Fang Ren.
He couldn't believe that the young man in front of him, wielding the Empty Ming Sword and overwhelming the Ninth-order Void Beast, was actually the flesh and blood son he had been worried about for years.
Back then, when Fang Ren was still a baby, to save the daughter of his close friend Bai Jinyun, he had transferred Fang Ren's Spiritual Root to Bai Qi. Then, fearing Fang Ren would suffer in the major family without the ability to cultivate, he had entrusted Shang Han, who had once faced life and death with him, to care for Fang Ren.
He wanted Fang Ren to stay away from strife and live out the rest of his days in peace...
Who could have imagined that the infant who lost his Spiritual Root and couldn't cultivate would beco a Xuanyang Peak powerhouse that surpassed him...
To beco what he was, from a Mortal without a Spiritual Root that could not cultivate, how many hardships must he have endured?
Now, Fang Zheng's heart was filled with mixed emotions—sorrow yet relief, but also confused. Such a child, would Fang Ren still be willing to acknowledge him as his father?
Occasionally, he even took the ti to secretly visit Fang Ren amidst his busy schedule, but he was afraid of eting him and worried that Fang Ren wouldn't be able to accept being 'abandoned'...
Having co over in a hurry, Mu Tianyuan glanced at Fang Ren battling the beast, and then at Fang Zheng stupefied in the sky, a smile hanging at the corner of her mouth as she shook her head.
She was also quite shocked. Fang Ren suddenly having such a high realm was a speed of progression that practitioners of this era couldn't possibly achieve.
However, she was also happy because this way, her daughter wouldn't have to worry about being separated from the one she liked anymore.
"The beast has been suppressed! Other Regional Leaders, return to your positions imdiately! Continue restraining the Black Snake's assault!" Xia Mo imdiately issued the command.
Upon hearing the order from the Commander-in-Chief, Mu Tianyuan concentrated a blob of True Qi on her fingertip and flicked it on Fang Zheng's forehead, snapping him out of his daze.
"Brother Zheng, stop daydreaming."
Having said that, Mu Tianyuan rushed back quickly with the other Regional Leaders."
Fang Zheng ca to his senses and imdiately followed Mu Tianyuan. Since the Commander-in-Chief had ordered them to return, it must an that the situation with the Black Snake was getting even more tense.
But as he left, he couldn't help worrying about Fang Ren.
"Junior Sister, where's Little Han?" Fang Zheng asked.
"He has sustained severe injuries, so I had soone take him to the Middle-level War Zone," Mu Tianyuan replied.
"I still wanted to ask him so things about Ran'er."
"You better not ask him. He probably doesn't have a clear idea either. Just yesterday he was still in the Azure Sky Realm, and today he suddenly changed like this," Mu Tianyuan said.
Just yesterday he was in the Azure Sky Realm?
Fang Zheng was utterly confused.
"Oh right, Brother Zheng. You're about to beco a grandfather," said Mu Tianyuan.
Upon hearing those words, Fang Zheng beca even more baffled.
Grandfather?
Ah Ran... has a child?
After taking a glance at Mu Tianyuan, Fang Zheng said, "You seem quite happy about it, so... the child's grandmother wouldn't happen to be you, would it?"
"Yes, in-law father."
"This..."
Fang Zheng didn't know whether to feel joyful or lancholic.
He had thought that he would be in-laws with Bai Jinyun, but unexpectedly, it turned out to be with Shang Han instead.
On one hand, was his lifelong friend, and on the other, a brother he trusted with his life and death... Truthfully, he was happy to be in-laws with either. But the problem was, his child and Bai Jinyun had an arranged marriage that had not yet been called off, and with Shang Han, the two children even had a baby together...
As he returned to Area Two Battlefield, Fang Zheng shook his head and firmly chose to respect Fang Ren's wishes.
...
"Damn it!"
Now that Fang Ren suddenly possessed the power of the Xuanyang Peak Realm, it was natural for so to rejoice and others to be enraged.
Take Song Mobei for instance, the eldest senior brother of the Tiandao Sword Sect. Only yesterday, he was able to use his realm advantage to stand up for his junior sister.
But he had never anticipated that in just one night, the youngster whom he could have easily crushed to death yesterday now possessed strength surpassing his own! How could he not be furious?
At the ti of this incident, the angriest person was actually not Song Mobei, but Xia Fulan, who was at the edge of the Middle-level War Zone.
Being beaten into a pig's head by Fang Ren yesterday was an enmity she would rember for the rest of her life, and she was determined to find an opportunity to annihilate the Fang Ren who had brought her sha!
But suddenly witnessing this scene, Xia Fulan was literally on the verge of a rage-induced death.
The Xuanyang Peak Realm! This was the Xuanyang Peak Realm!
Even her father would be powerless against Fang Ren!
Moreover, she didn't believe her father would stand up for her over such a matter. On the contrary, she suspected that with her father's temperant, not giving her a beating would already be considered rciful.
"I must quickly find a way to kill both him and Mu Huanqing! Otherwise, how can I, Xia Fulan, ever show my face in this world again!"
Looking at Fang Ren, who was evenly matched with a Ninth-order Void Beast, and then at Mu Huanqing, who seed invincible in the sky, she no longer hoped anyone could help her.
Suddenly, Xia Fulan's eyes turned towards the swirling black mist, her gaze filled with spite: "You two will die today!"
Without any hesitation, Xia Fulan imdiately addressed two fellow Tiandao disciples beside her: "Senior brothers, sisters, I am going into the sea to assist with the formation; please take care of things here for ."
Having said that, Xia Fulan flew straight into the sea.
"Junior sister Fulan?" one disciple was sowhat puzzled. Below the sea was a place only deputy district heads could venture to. What formation was she going to assist with?
"I always feel there's sothing off about junior Fulan."
...
"Brother Fang! There's sothing wrong with the spikes on its body!"
While engaged in battle, Xu Feng yelled at Fang Ren: "As long as the black spikes are on its body, its defensive power becos extraordinarily high! You must attack it when it uses the spikes to attack."
Hearing Xu Feng's words, Fang Ren quickly tried to attack twice. Indeed, the beast's defense was very high when the black spikes were on its body, making it difficult for him to inflict any damage. But once the spikes detached, with a single sword strike, he could slice off a piece of the beast's flesh.
Seeing this, Fang Ren imdiately handed Xu Feng a piece of talisman paper and said: "When it attacks with its black spikes, try to get close to it and activate this talisman."
"Alright!" Xu Feng nodded.
As he spoke, Fang Ren also took out a talisman paper of the sa kind, waiting for the right mont.
These two talisman papers were not ordinary Teleportation Talismans, but Isolation Formations drawn by Mu Huanqing at the height of her Formation mastery. This formation was originally used to seal objects, but when used as a defensive formation, it also had a surprisingly strong effect.
However, Fang Ren didn't plan to use it for defense this ti.
As soon as the giant beast shot out its black spikes again, he would approach the beast and activate the Isolation Formation. By then, the beast's black spikes would be isolated outside for a short period, allowing him and Xu Feng to attack to their fullest extent.
