Azure Wyrm City and Jiayu City
As usual, the Holy City was bustling with people coming and going. There were always many powerful warriors going in and out of the huge city gate.
In a dense forest several hundred meters away from the Holy City, two teams sat lazily in an empty space. They seemed to be discussing something.
These two teams were guarding the two high-grade cities, Azure Dragon City and Jiayu City, outside the Holy City. There were not many people in the two teams, and there were only sixteen people in total. The strongest people in the two teams were the captains of the two teams, and their strength was at the great circle of the Heavenly King Stage.
The captain of Azure Wyrm City was called Fan Xi. When Zhuowen and the others had arrived at the provincial capital, they had come into contact with the Azure Wyrm City team. Naturally, they could recognize Fan Xi's appearance. He was only at the great circle of the Heavenly King Stage.
The captain of Jiayu City was called Chen Fu. He was a young man with brown hair and a resolute expression. Chen Fu's strength was similar to Fan Xi's, both at the great circle of the Heavenly King Stage.
"How unlucky!
We just had to be assigned to the same island as Nine Dragons City and Thunder Universe City. With the strength of our two teams, it's simply impossible for us to be a match for Nine Dragons City and Thunder Universe City. "Fan Xi crossed his arms and leaned against a tree trunk as he complained.
"Nine Dragons City and Thunder Universe City both have three half-step Ultimate Emperor Realm cultivators. Nine Dragons City is the most terrifying of them all. It's said that their captain, Feng Long, can break through to the Ultimate Emperor Realm at any time. It's just that he's been suppressing his cultivation to the half-step Ultimate Emperor Realm. With Feng Long's strength, ordinary half-step Ultimate Emperor Realm cultivators are no match for him.
Trying to compete with these two teams for the island is simply courting death, "Chen Fu sneered.
Both Azure Wyrm City and Jiayu City knew their limits. They knew that with the two powerful teams, Nine Dragons City and Thunder Universe City, their chances of seizing control of the island were close to zero. As a result, they didn't plan on entering the Holy City.
However, Green Dragon City and Jiayu City were extremely unwilling to leave the tower empty-handed. Therefore, the two teams turned their attention to the remaining teams from the intermediate and low-level cities.
Although the resources of the middle and low level cities were far inferior to those of the high level cities, the geniuses that were sent out this time were the geniuses of the cities. Moreover, the Qiankun bags of these geniuses often contained valuable items. Therefore, the Azure Dragon City and Jiayu City planned to make a good profit before leaving the Origin Qi Tower and snatch the Qiankun bags from the geniuses of the middle and low level cities.
Fan Xi gave a cold snort and said, "Humph!
Naturally, I know that. This is also the reason why I didn't enter the Holy City and directly face the two teams from Nine Dragons City and Thunder Universe City. "
When Chen Fu heard this, he was about to say something sarcastic again when suddenly, a black shadow rushed towards Chen Fu from the depths of the forest. In the blink of an eye, it was only an inch away from Chen Fu's forehead.
Clang!
Chen Fu's eyes narrowed. His right hand formed a sword and pinched upwards, instantly catching the black shadow. When he focused his eyes, he discovered that the black shadow in his hand was actually a steel needle.
"Fan Xi!
It seems that those lowly people from the middle and low level cities can't hold back anymore. Get ready for battle! "Chen Fu said coldly as he flicked the steel needle between his fingers and shot it at a tree trunk.
"This is good too. It saves us the trouble of looking for these guys!" Fan Xi licked his lips and said excitedly.
In just a moment, the members of the two teams on the open ground took out their respective weapons and looked at the depths of the forest with vigilance.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Whoosh! Fan Xi and Chen Fu didn't have to wait for too long. They saw a group of people slowly walking out from the depths of the forest. At a glance, there were about forty to fifty people, and the leaders were Zhang Xinya and Zheng Yi.
With so many people appearing all of a sudden, Fan Xi and Chen Sheng's expressions changed slightly. They didn't expect that the teams from the middle and low level cities would actually start to form an alliance.
"Pretty smart!
You actually managed to form an alliance with the other low level cities. However, to us, the teams from the low level cities are just a motley crew. What's the use even if you gather more people?
You're just a group of cannon fodders sent to die. "Chen Fu recovered from his shock and said indifferently.
"Ants can kill an elephant with enough strength. No matter how weak the strength is, as long as they gather together, they can still display a powerful strength!
Chen Fu, so what if you're from a high level city?
Do you think you'll definitely win against us? "Zhang Xinya said coldly.
"It's not that we'll definitely win, but you'll definitely die!
All of you, go to hell!
Fan Xi, there's no need to hold back. Kill all of these guys. When the time comes, we'll split the Qiankun Bag! "
As he spoke, Chen Fu took the lead and pulled out a blood-red broadsword from his Qiankun Bag. He stomped his feet on the ground and his whole body flew directly toward Zhang Xinya.
"I don't need you to tell me!"
Fan Xi grinned and also pulled out a weapon from his Qiankun Bag. It was a huge meteor hammer. Not to be outdone, he followed behind Chen Fu and rushed toward Zhang Xinya's group.
Zhang Xinya and Zheng Yi also didn't expect that Chen Fu and Fan Xi would actually directly attack as soon as they arrived. Their faces couldn't help but change.
"Young master Zheng, I'll leave Fan Xi to you!
Huiya and I will deal with Chen Fu. "
Zhang Xinya gritted her teeth and hurriedly instructed Zheng Yi. Then, she led Zhang Huiya to fight against Chen Fu. Zheng Yi nodded slightly and directly rushed toward Fan Xi.
Boom!
In just an instant, the battle was on the verge of breaking out. The team led by Fan Xi and Chen Fu clashed with the team led by Zhang Xinya in the blink of an eye. For a moment, the sound of clashing metal resounded throughout the dense forest. The ear-piercing sound of metal clashing filled the entire open space, crisp and clear.
"You guys overestimate yourselves!
Die! "
Looking at Zhang Xinya and Zhang Huiya who were rushing toward him, Chen Fu revealed a sinister smile. He clenched his right hand and the huge blood-red broadsword with a pungent smell slashed toward Zhang Xinya's neck.
Chen Fu could tell at a glance that Zhang Xinya and Zhang Huiya were weaker than him. One was at the Advanced Heavenly King Stage, while the other was only at the Initial Heavenly King Stage. Such strength posed no threat to him at all. Therefore, he was very confident that this attack would definitely be able to kill the two sisters in front of him.
Facing the huge blood-red broadsword that was slashing toward them, Zhang Xinya and Zhang Huiya were not flustered at all. Both of them took out similar blue longswords from their Cosmos Bags. Then, both of them held the longswords in their left and right hands and shouted in unison, "Left and right combination!"
As soon as the shout came out, the auras of the two women suddenly rose, and they actually rose to a level comparable to the peak of the Heavenly King Stage.
Boom!
The two blue longswords struck out at the same time and directly struck the blood-red broadsword that was rushing toward them. Unexpectedly, the powerful blood-red broadsword was directly sent flying.
Chen Fu's pupils shrank. He didn't expect the two ladies' auras to suddenly rise to the level of Complete Heavenly King Stage.
Taking a step in the void, Chen Fu easily caught the blood-red broadsword and said with a frown, "After the two of them joined forces, their strength actually rose to the level of Complete Heavenly King Stage. What kind of secret technique is this?"
"This secret technique is called Left and Right Combination. It can forcibly gather the Origin Energy of two people at one point, greatly increasing their combined strength!
Although one of us is at the Advanced Heavenly King Stage, and the other is at the Initial Heavenly King Stage, under the enhancement of this secret technique, our strength is no weaker than yours at all!
I'm afraid you can't defeat us right now. "
Under the effect of the Left and Right Combination secret technique, Zhang Xinya and Zhang Huiya spoke in the same way as if they were the same person speaking.
"Can't do it?
You think too highly of yourselves. A secret technique is a secret technique after all. There must be a time limit!
I can buy time. When the secret technique's time is up, let's see if you're still a match for me!
Watch out for my broadsword! "
Chen Fu's eyes were cold, and the corner of his mouth revealed a sinister smile. After saying this, he directly raised the blood-red broadsword and began to fight with the two sisters again. He intended to buy time with the two sisters. When the effect of the Left and Right Combination secret technique was over, the two sisters' alliance would collapse.
Zhang Xinya and Zhang Huiya's expressions changed slightly when they heard this. Obviously, Chen Fu was right about the flaw of the Left and Right Combination secret technique. This secret technique indeed had a time limit. Once the time limit was up, the secret technique would automatically disappear, and the two sisters would fall into a weakened state for a period of time.
"Second sister!
We have to go all out in this battle. Otherwise, we'll all die here, "Zhang Xinya said to Zhang Huiya who was beside her cautiously.
Zhang Huiya nodded, understanding the seriousness of the matter. Immediately after, the two sisters pounced on Chen Fu again, their attacks becoming sharper and fiercer.
Zhuowen, who was mixed in the team, also saw the Left and Right Combination secret technique used by Zhang Xinya and Zhang Huiya. His eyes suddenly burst with a glimmer of light. This kind of secret technique was extremely rare. Even Zhuowen began to feel a little tempted.
This kind of secret technique that required the cooperation of two people was not very useful to Zhuowen, but it was extremely useful to Gu Xin and Hu Wuying, who were weaker. After all, the battle for the Vitality Tower was not a one-person battle, but a battle between teams.
With Zhuowen's current strength and promotion speed, the gap between Gu Xin and Hu Wuying would definitely widen. Moreover, the opponents he would have to face would also become stronger. Therefore, Gu Xin and Hu Wuying were destined to be a burden to Zhuowen. However, with this secret technique, the gap between Gu Xin and Hu Wuying and Zhuowen would not be so obvious.
"If there's a chance, it's best to exchange for this secret technique from Zhang Xinya!
This secret technique is really useful to Gu Xin and Hu Wuying. "Zhuowen dealt with the opponents in front of him somewhat perfunctorily, secretly calculating in his heart.
What Zhuowen did not notice was that on the other side, Zheng Yi, who was fighting with Fan Xi, glanced at Zhuowen's location from the corner of his eyes. And whether it was intentional or not, Zheng Yi seemed to be deliberately leading Fan Xi to Zhuowen's direction.
