266: Chapter 23 1V2 266: Chapter 23 1V2 Inside the heart of the Earth, Lu Hong’s fighting spirit turned into a blade, shredding Xiao Can’s spear rainbow, and he sighed, “Oh dear, this is going to be troubleso.”
“Yes, prepare to die.” Putting aside their contempt, Xiao Can and Di Luoda had to admit that Lu Hong had so skill, but that was not the issue.
With their guard up, Xiao Can engaged in close combat, while Di Luoda provided long-range support, and taking down Lu Hong was just a matter of ti.
“It seems you have already discussed your strategies,” Lu Hong smiled, not retreating but advancing to et his opponents with his sword.
“Courting death!” Originally still cautious about Lu Hong escaping, it now seed unnecessary.
Xiao Can shouted loudly, his long spear releasing countless cold lights, blocking all of Lu Hong’s paths of retreat.
After continuous practice, Lu Hong’s swordsmanship had improved significantly and he effortlessly parried the attacks.
With his powerful physique, it was Xiao Can who found himself at a disadvantage, needing to constantly stimulate his magic power to counter.
Within just two minutes, they had exchanged hundreds of blows.
Xiao Can felt imnse pressure and yelled, “Di Luoda, what are you doing?!
Help ?!”
“Just give thirty seconds.” Di Luoda, who had narrowly escaped death, was simring with rage and now was brewing his ultimate spell skill.
Lu Hong also sensed the violent magic power gathering around, likely water-based magic.
“What a hassle.” Fatal Strike suddenly activated, forcing Xiao Can back, and then he headed straight for Di Luoda.
Xiao Can wouldn’t let Lu Hong succeed, picking up his long spear again to block Lu Hong’s path, buying ti for Di Luoda.
Lu Hong’s fighting spirit surged, his sword piercing through his opponent’s right shoulder.
Xiao Can stepped back several paces, “Hurry up!”
“Ready!” Di Luoda laughed loudly, “Die, boy!”
In an instant, the world of the subterranean cavern was filled with a thick water mist.
“Ocean Transformation, Sand Sifting Waves!” Di Luoda pointed at Lu Hong from a distance, clenched his fist tightly, and the mist turned into an ocean trapping Lu Hong within, with thousands of giant waves rising around him, carrying the roar of a tsunami to crush Lu Hong.
“Second-Transition Peak water-based mage skill, I’m really curious to see how your external support will handle this,” King Liang Chen taunted again tily.
“Father, what should we do?
Please save Brother Lu Hong!” Xixi also pleaded continuously at his side.
King Cang placated, “Don’t worry, your Brother Lu Hong should have a way to deal with it.” As for whether he really did, King Cang didn’t know; he only knew that the Sand Sifting Waves skill was indeed powerful, even Magic Wind wouldn’t dare to face it head-on.
The enormous pressure from the looming waves caused intense pain on the surface of Lu Hong’s body; being hit by one wave would definitely shatter him into pieces.
Warriors inherently lacked strong defensive skills, and though his body had been trained to descend from the heavenly gods, without activating divine light, he wasn’t particularly keen to withstand this skill head-on, especially since the waves weren’t just a single wave, but thousands.
In that case…ti to play dirty!
Lu Hong retracted the War Holy Sword and switched out the Steel Holy Sword’s sword shield.
Under the infusion of fighting energy, the sword shield emitted a dark glow.
Steel Fortress suddenly activated, a huge steel fortress slowly rose in the roaring sea like a needle stabilizing the sea, calming a few of Di Luoda’s angry waves, reducing the power of the giant waves.
“What is this thing?” King Liang Chen couldn’t help but curse, as the thousand-layered gigantic waves violently struck the steel fortress under the gaze of powerful individuals from the seven kingdoms.
The imnse force shook the surrounding cavern, causing stones to crack and the screen projecting the scene to quake continuously, conveying its potent destructive power.
Ten minutes passed, with water waves and chaotic rocks settling down, Xiao Can and Di Luoda felt intense pain throughout their bodies, barely blocking the rebounding shockwaves from the collision between Sand Sifting Waves and the Steel Fortress, suffering considerable internal injuries.
Looking closely, the huge steel fortress still stood tall, showing no signs of collapse.
Jokingly, this was indeed the strongest defensive skill in war, ranked at the pinnacle of the third transition.
The waves passed?
Seeing no movent outside, Lu Hong withdrew the fortress, unhard.
“How is this possible?!” King Liang Chen, Di Luoda, and others exclaid in unison.
Switching back to the War Holy Sword, Lu Hong pointed his sword at the two n, “Now it’s my turn.”
“Run!” Xiao Can and Di Luoda took to their heels, now with internal injuries and definitely unable to defeat their opponent, not fleeing would be seeking death!
Think you can escape?
Lu Hong hastily pursued.
Suddenly, Xiao Can and Di Luoda’s corpses separated, and heads rolled onto the ground, while their bodies continued to dash forward due to inertia.
Lu Hong quickly stopped in his tracks; a very fine thread was suspended right in front of his eyes.
If one did not pay close attention, it would have been impossible to detect.
Xiao Can and Di Luoda must have been decapitated by this kind of thread.
“Quick reflexes there!” At that mont, a Fla Warrior from the Kingdom of Black jumped out from behind a rock.
“Allow to introduce myself.
I am Weide from the Second Military Intelligence Division of the Kingdom of Black.”
“Kingdom of Black…” Lu Hong said, “Are you alone?”
“Of course.
For an assassination, the fewer people, the better,” Weide smiled.
“Sir, I greatly admire your ability to take on two opponents.
Consider this a greeting.
Next ti we et, be very careful not to die by my hand.”
“Thanks for the warning.” Lu Hong sneered; it seed Weide recognized Lu Hong’s strength and didn’t dare engage directly.
If it hadn’t been for his quick reaction, he might have ended up beheaded like Xiao Can.
“Then, may we et again if fate allows.” Weide bowed politely and then transford into a black bat, disappearing from Lu Hong’s sight.
Still needing to pursue Sangxi, Lu Hong did not want to waste more ti on this assassin and turned to follow the direction where Liang Chen’s Fla Warrior had gone.
anwhile, in the arena, Liang Chen’s King stared angrily at the King of the Kingdom of Black: “Ji Hongtian!” He, Liang Chen, had two external supporters, and the rest were top experts from his kingdom at the peak of the Second Transformation.
Losing one was painful enough, let alone losing two at once.
Normally, Lu Hong wouldn’t have been able to catch up to them, but with a Mage present, escaping assassination wouldn’t have been a problem.
Thus, he was sure to hold the Kingdom of Black accountable.
However, Ji Hongtian, the King of the Kingdom of Black, didn’t bother to explain or even acknowledge the other party.
“Hahaha!” The King of Cang at this ti was quite pleased and mocked the Liang Chen King: “I say, Lucio, who would’ve thought that after all our fighting, it would end up benefiting Ji Hongtian.”
Indeed, the Kingdom of Black had gained a trendous advantage.
Killing added points, and at that mont, the leaderboard showed the Kingdom of Black far in the lead.
To everyone it seed that the championship spot in this martial conference was almost secured.
Lu Hong dashed swiftly and stopped at a three-way intersection: “Damn, which way should I go?”
Left?
Middle?
Right?
Liang Chen’s main forces would likely have left a clue for Xiao Can and his companion.
Lu Hong carefully searched the entrances of the three caves and indeed found a tiny mark on the rocks on the right-hand side, barely noticeable due to a faint magic reaction.
This way, it’s decided!
Lu Hong entered the cave.
Illuminated by the unique glow of the heart of the earth’s fla stones, the whole cave flickered with a dim red light, resembling a red-light district.
After traveling for about several thousand ters, three dead bodies of Pei Kingdom Fla Warriors lay silently on the ground.
Lu Hong checked their pulses; they had been dead for a while, and he believed Sangxi and his comrades must be nearby.
Lu Hong observed his surroundings again.
Since this wasn’t a projection area, it was exactly why Feng Wenhua dared to hunt down the team from Pei Kingdom, ensuring total annihilation.
If anyone survived and returned to the projection area, they would definitely report back to the Pei Kingdom’s King.
After the martial conference, Liang Chen would face new adversaries from both Pei and Shate Kingdoms.
Indeed, just as Lu Hong had predicted, three more minutes of walking brought the sounds of battle from not too far ahead.
Lu Hong cautiously moved closer and saw Kui Di of Pei Kingdom fighting alone against both Feng Wenhua and Sangxi.
It was good that he had planned the elimination of the three earlier; otherwise, they would have been difficult to handle.
Feng Wenhua grew more vigorous as the battle continued.
He admitted that he might have lost if he faced Kui Di alone, but with Sangxi supporting from the side, defeating the opponent was only a matter of ti—moreover, Xiao Can and Di Luoda should be arriving soon, right?
“You people from Liang Chen are really despicable!” Kui Di, wielding his long sword, attacked broadly, which made it easy for him to be disturbed by Sangxi.
Early knife wounds laced with poison slowed his movents significantly.
“Before setting out, our King had already given us orders.
You can only bla yourselves for being in the wrong place at the wrong ti,” Feng Wenhua raised his long sword aloft, and the wind elents harshly tornted his opponent, forcing him to continuously retreat.
And the other Fla Warriors from Pei Kingdom, suppressed by Liang Chen, were also in grave danger, hanging by a thread.
The enemy of an enemy is a friend—Lu Hong decided to ally with Pei Kingdom to take down Liang Chen first.
“Hello there.” Lu Hong suddenly jumped forward.
Feng Wenhua turned to look, damn, why is it that masked man from Cang?!
“Where are Xiao Can and Di Luoda?!”
Faced with Feng Wenhua’s outburst, Lu Hong couldn’t help but laugh: “Since I’m here, do you think they could still be alive?”
“How is that possible?!” Feng Wenhua was shocked, turning his head to shout at Sangxi beside him: “Who the hell is he?”
“I, …” Sangxi also panicked.
Lu Hong’s arrival had undoubtedly tipped the scales of victory.
Without managing to kill the Pei Kingdom Fla Warrior, they would soon face relentless pursuit from an alliance of two countries.
Of course, Liang Chen hadn’t yet considered whether he would survive to escape the dark zone.
