Their strength is approximately at the initial entry into the Tenth Realm, although individually far from being Zhan Feng and others’ match, their timing and positioning are exceptionally cunning.
One of them swung a black iron chain hammer covered with spikes, carrying a foul and fishy wind, and fiercely smashed towards the already heavily wounded Lan Xi, a young girl in blue clothes, who seemed about to faint in the next second, essentially having lost combat capability.
The other, like a ghostly figure, instantly bypassed the frontal battlefield, dragging a long knife ignited with a ghastly green flame, and launched a fierce attack at Zhan Yun’s back, whose old injuries had just relapsed following a full-force strike, causing her aura to become chaotic.
Their intent was extremely clear, which was to assault the injured, create chaos, and disrupt Jiang Shu and the others’ counterattack.
"You bastards!"
"Get away!"
Zhan Feng’s eyes nearly burst with rage, if the unwell Lan Xi and Zhan Yun were hit, the consequences would be unimaginable!
He endured the excruciating pain that felt like his vital organs were being churned, forcibly twisting the Bronze Battle Axe, trying to rush back to their aid.
However, how could the Venerable Level enormous image let such a great opportunity slip by?
Just as Zhan Feng became momentarily distracted, the gray-black energy surged at the wound in its pierced neck vertebra, as if fleshy buds were wriggling.
It ceased its howling, beneath the grim bronze mask, it seemed to crack a silent and cruel arc.
An unprecedentedly terrifying energy condensed on the Broken Spear, carrying a deadly intent of locking onto its target.
The Broken Spear lifted, still that seemingly unremarkable thrust.
This thrust, its speed seemed not quick, yet strangely it directly traversed the spatial distance, with an aura of destruction piercing through the ancient stars.
The spear tip pointed directly at Zhan Feng’s back at a moment when his defenses were completely open, with no protection whatsoever.
Even before the spear arrived, the invisible pressure caused Zhan Feng’s heart to almost halt, and his whole body’s bones emitted a groan as if about to collapse.
This was an absolute realm suppression, a calculated deadly strike after the image awakened a trace of Spiritual Wisdom!
"Zhan Feng!!"
Jiang Shu shouted, attempting to rush forward for rescue; however, he had just unleashed a heavy blow, right at the moment when new power had yet to arise, even if he wished to employ Space Law for rescue, he was too late.
Time was critical!
Just as the pitch-black Broken Spear was about to strike Zhan Feng’s back at the final moment, a decisive figure collided like a cannonball from the diagonal side!
This person was burly and ferocious-looking, resembling a black bear standing upright at first glance, with exposed skin inscribed with ancient runes, blazing fiercely.
"Huer Dan!"
Zhan Yun’s voice came from below.
This disciple, who had been following Zhan Feng, assisting battle with exquisite Close Combat Techniques and keen perception, now erupted with astonishing power.
He treated the two millstone-like axes in his hands as spears, wrapped in final Secret Power, and violently hurled them at the throat of that Venerable Level image, while he himself pounced towards Zhan Feng!
"Young Master, flee quickly!"
Boom!!
The twin axes collided with the thick bronze neck guard of the image, only sparking a few fire stars before being shot away, yet a slight obstructive force had already been generated.
At the same time, Huer Dan slammed into Zhan Feng’s rear side, pushing him several feet away from the brink of life and death.
The pitch-black Broken Spear mercilessly pierced Huer Dan’s right shoulder exposed to push Zhan Feng aside.
The terrifying Power of Annihilation instantly exploded, and in just a moment, half of Huer Dan’s body was swiftly consumed by darkness, the intense pain causing him to emit an extraordinarily shrill scream.
Mixed with shattered internal organs, blood spurted violently from his mouth, his body flew high like a broken rag doll, and smashed heavily against the distant Crystal Stone Wall, with his life or death unknown.
"Huer Dan!"
Zhan Feng’s eyes were bloodshot, tears flowing.
Witnessing his comrade suffering severe injuries to protect him, the bloodline of the War Alliance ignited completely within him, burning wildly!
"Kill!"
Zhan Feng, in a state akin to madness, his Bronze Battle Axe flared with bloody embers, disregarding internal injuries, was about to charge again.
"Snap out of it!"
A shout containing spatial oscillations exploded directly in Zhan Feng’s soul, like thunder.
It was Jiang Shu.
He forcibly used the Heart of Space to transmit soul communication, waking the enraged Zhan Feng.
"Take everyone and retreat!"
"It’s about to awaken, leaving now is the only chance!"
Jiang Shu’s voice was as cold as iron, undeniable.
At this moment, he saw with extreme clarity.
The bloody light in the eyes of that Venerable level image was no longer merely a slaughter but filled with a hunting-like patience and cunning.
It was evolving, rapidly understanding and adapting to their combat style after successive injuries and counterattacks.
The nascent weak Spiritual Wisdom was absorbing combat experience, growing wildly.
Zhan Feng’s body quivered, he abruptly looked around.
Lan Xi narrowly avoided the chain hammer but was slashed on the thigh by another demon soldier’s long knife, blood gushing, her face pale as paper.
Zhan Yun barely turned aside to avoid vital areas at the critical moment, but her flank was still burned by the ghastly green flame, which continued to corrode her Protective Magical Power like a bone-attached maggot, further weakening her aura.
The other two or three who could still stand were also heavily wounded, mana exhausted.
Huer Dan lay in a pool of blood, life and death unknown.
And in the distance, more shadows writhed under twisted light, more Low Rank Shadow Soldiers quickly formed, roaring as they surrounded them.
Despair hung between the group.
"Zhan Feng, take everyone and leave, I’ll cover the retreat!"
Jiang Shu’s voice was firm as he faced the Venerable level image stepping forwards, whose aura continued to rise, gaze increasingly agile and dangerous.
He raised his fist.
Qi Swallowing Vientiane Fist!
He thrust both hands forward, no longer stacking condensed Dao Rhyme but instead mixed the vast Dao Rhyme within him with the Power of Space Law, like a raging torrent, suddenly striking at the chain hammer demon soldier that had just ambushed Lan Xi, and the ghastly green flame demon soldier pursuing Zhan Yun, as well as distant pursuers.
This Qi Swallowing Vientiane Fist, moved beyond the simple realm of "overpowering force," becoming a compression and assimilation on the level of laws.
In an instant, the two Tenth Realm demon soldier images were like being cast into a massive invisible millstone, the space highly compressed, forming an invisible cage that firmly trapped them.
Taichu Dao Rhyme dominated like Chaos Qi tearing open creation, aggressively eroding and decomposing their composition laws and resentment cores.
The two demon soldiers couldn’t even scream, their figures twisted violently in the air, like snow melting under sunlight, and in the blink of an eye transformed into two wisps of curling black smoke, thoroughly digested within this law-ruptured ancient battlefield, along with destroying hundreds of pursuing soldiers behind.
One move exterminating foes!
Yet, after the immensely powerful attack, Jiang Shu had also exhausted most of his reserved magical power, even his protective silver light circled around him dimmed for a moment.
"Brother Jiang!!"
"Surviving is the only hope!"
Jiang Shu didn’t look back, his voice, amidst the space’s oscillation, clearly transmitted into every ear.
As soon as the words fell, a tragically indescribable aura burst out from Jiang Shu.
A silver-white flame, seemingly burning from the very origin of the soul, carried no temperature, yet forced the surrounding chaotic and violent law fragments to avoid.
This flame wasn’t ordinary fire, rather he had ignited the life fire of his own "Dao"!
It was the essence condensed from his Space Law, Law of Power, Taichu Dao Rhyme... and even soul will!
The Tao Fire is lit.
Rising amidst death!
Boom!
The silver-white Dao Flame soared, Jiang Shu transformed into a humanoid silver sun, the Desolate Star Halberd at this moment seemed to possess life, emitting a lament that shook the ancient path.
He stepped forward, the space beneath automatically condensed into steps, bearing him as he instantaneously approached the Venerable level image.
The terrifying power brought by burning the Dao Fire temporarily bridged the gap of realm, granting him the potential to confront the Venerable level directly.
Silver flames flickered, Space Mirror Images appeared once again, this time all of nine.
Together with the original self, ten silhouettes burning with silver Dao flame, charged towards the mountain-like ancient demon image ruthlessly.
Halberd shadows filled the sky, dissecting space, carrying the force to break myriad pounds combined with the Power of Taichu Void, simultaneously attacking all its vital areas.
The momentum was immense, seemingly capable of shredding it into fragments in an instant!
