Chapter Ninety-Four: Unjust War
The second elder was Yan Pingsong, who cupped his hands and said: "Zuo brother, Shangguan Xian is under the control of the current law, you wouldn't want to break him out of prison, would you?"
If Zuo Hongchen really wants to rescue the prison, no one in the scene can stop him! Of course, if Zuo Hongchen dares to do so, it is equivalent to provoking the Han Cang country. Behind the South Palace Imperial Family is the Tian Xing Sect, with an old freak who has opened up the sky!
Unless Zuo Hongchen never wants to set foot in this cold and desolate country again, otherwise doing so would be a dead end.
"Hahaha, would I do such a foolish thing!" Zuo Hongchen laughed loudly, "I have received the emperor's sacred decree, and have come to escort my disciple. This is my disciple's final battle here, after killing his opponent he will be free!"
He took out a piece of brocade from his bosom, which was probably the imperial edict.
Immediately, someone from the Beast Arena appeared and accepted the silk, and soon a person from the Spirit Gathering Realm appeared, loudly affirming what Zuo Hongchen had said. The Holy Emperor's intention was to encourage Shang Guan Qi, believing that his talent was exceptional and should not be wasted in the Beast Arena, allowing him to atone for his crimes and serve the country.
It's all over, Zhou Heng is definitely finished!
Let's not talk about Shang Guanqi's strength for now. With a strong master of the Three Heavens sitting in, would Zhou Heng dare to kill Shang Guanqi? In a life-and-death battle, if one side has reservations, how can they exert their full strength?
Besides, can all ten directions be killed just by blowing?
With an air of arrogance, Zuo Hongchen swept his gaze over the crowd and said impatiently, "What's taking so long? Hurry up and let my disciple kill that person, then follow me back to the Imperial Capital!"
Arrogant and overbearing!
In his eyes, Zhou Heng was nothing more than a sacrificial lamb, not worth mentioning, and with a wave of his hand, he would be beheaded, not even as good as an ant!
Under the dominance of this three-realm strongman, even if it was the backstage boss of the Beast Fighting Arena or Tianbao Pavilion, they didn't dare to disobey. After all, Tianbao Pavilion's strongest member here was only Ma Kuanjun, who had just entered the initial stage of the First Realm.
"Ladies and gentlemen, the long-awaited battle is about to begin. Please keep your eyes wide open and enjoy this thrilling fight!" The host of the arena hurriedly shouted out, and ordered the opening of the fences on both sides.
Zhou Heng stepped out, and although he hadn't seen Zuo Hongchen before, the other's words were not lost on him.
He was furious in his heart, and his face was solemn.
The heart of martial arts cannot be shaken, Shangguan Qi will definitely kill him, even if Zuo Hongchen is by his side, it's useless! He had already made up his mind, if he gives up now, the heart of martial arts will fall, and in the future, it may sink silently.
Warriors have no fear; the road to the peak is destined to be filled with thousands of difficulties and dangers, if you are afraid of this and that, how can you move forward?
On the other side, Shangguan Qi also appeared.
This is a young man with a very delicate appearance. Although the aging speed of warriors will be greatly slowed down after entering the Gathering Spirit Realm, and there are also age-reducing materials, it is no longer possible to judge a person's age from their appearance alone.
But Upper Official Qi was indeed only twenty-two years old!
He looked no different from an ordinary young man, elegant and even a bit delicate, but when Zhou Heng saw his eyes, he naturally wouldn't have such thoughts anymore.
Crazy!
This was Zhou Heng's only feeling, that in that frail body seemed to be hiding a fierce demon, which would pounce out and destroy everything at any moment!
"Master!" Shang Guan Qi bowed respectfully to Zuo Hong Chen, "It's been two years since the disciple last saw his master!"
"Haha, quickly kill that little devil!" Zuo Hongchen pointed at Zhou Heng from afar, a thick pressure fell down, and Zhou Heng suddenly let out a muffled hum, with a streak of fresh blood oozing out from the corner of his mouth.
"Brother Left, isn't this a bit inappropriate?" Yan Ping Song said coldly, his voice filled with anger. He was the number one person of Tianhang Jiu Feng, although not the top master of Tianhang City, but he held in his hand the vast power of Hai Shan Zong, how could a loose cultivator's warrior compare to that?
"What's wrong? What's wrong?" Zuo Hongchen shouted, "Not to mention a little kid in the second heaven of gathering spirits, even if it's a master of the earth-shattering realm, I can still kill him if I want to!"
This remark was a bit too much, and several terrifying auras suddenly appeared in the arena, charging towards Zuo Hongchen.
Zuo Hongchen is indeed the strongest, but even a warrior who can split the earth and shatter the three heavens can at most withstand five warriors who can split the earth and shatter two heavens. There are no less than thirty warriors in Tianhangjiu Peak who have reached the Splitting Earth Realm, enough to exhaust him to death!
Of course, the result of a fierce battle is absolutely a lose-lose situation. If it's not necessary, no one would want to start such a war.
"Haha, I am a member of the Poison Blood Sect. Do you really want to be my enemy?" Zuo Hongchen sneered, his eyes scanning around, and instantly, those few auras retreated, seemingly filled with fear towards the Poison Blood Sect.
Jianping let out a sigh and didn't say anything more.
One man, subdued the entire Tianhang City!
"Master, let me handle this little brat! My Blood Boiling Skill has reached its peak, and it's just right to use him as a sacrifice!" Upper Official Qi said loudly, his tone full of confidence and arrogance.
"Has the Blood Boiling Technique finally succeeded? Haha, good disciple, it wasn't in vain for you to stay here for two years! Once the Blood Boiling Technique is fully mastered, your future cultivation will advance rapidly, and within a hundred years, you will definitely break through the Open Heaven Realm!" Zuo Hongchen laughed loudly.
One master and one apprentice, completely disregarding the tens of thousands of people in the entire arena as if they were nothing!
Too arrogant!
"This is Tianhang City! And besides, Shangguan Qi is still a prisoner on death row. At least he has to win this round before he can be pardoned, what's with the arrogance?"
For a moment, everyone had a suffocating anger, wanting to shout but unable to, an unspeakable distress!
This is just like a weak country being bullied by others, losing face for everyone!
Most people originally wanted to see Shi Fang Jie kill Zhou Heng, but now no one hopes that Shi Fang Jie will win, and they have all turned to support Zhou Heng. But how terrifying is Shi Fang Jie? How can Zhou Heng possibly win?
Of course, there are also lucky ones like Lyu Su'e and Liu Chengjun. They only want to see Zhou Heng die, as for losing face or not, it's none of their business. Those powerful beings who have reached the realm of splitting the earth still ended up shrinking back in fear!
"Cut the nonsense and bring it on!" Zhou Heng said coldly, and only he was full of confidence in himself, with an unshakeable determination to kill Shangguan Qi.
Swift Cloud Flowing Light Steps plus Nine Mysterious Trials Tower, let him dare to take a chance!
"Die if you want to!" Officer Guo Qi strode forward, pressing towards Zhou Heng, and with a casual punch, the winds and clouds stirred, unleashing boundless power.
Boom!
Zhou Heng and he exchanged a fierce blow, and in an instant, his foot slipped, and he was violently repelled five zhang! In contrast, Shangguan Qi only retreated half a zhang, his body swaying before stabilizing his footing.
His dantian space has also reached more than four times that of an ordinary person!
Zhou Heng's eyes narrowed, and he suddenly felt an overwhelming pressure. This was the first time he had encountered such a formidable foe! No wonder his opponent could earn the title of "Ten Sides All Kill", it was indeed not simple.
"Hmm, this kid's dantian space is huge!" Zuo Hongchen naturally knew his disciple's details, and from one move he could judge how terrifying Zhou Heng's potential was. The old monster's eyes flashed with killing intent, "Can't be left alive, kill him quickly!"
"Yes, Master!" Shang Guan Qi revealed a murderous smile, raising his right hand high up in the air, reflecting a bloody glow under the sunlight. "You little brat, how do you want to die?"
"I think it's better for you to die yourself!" Zhou Heng said calmly. Such an opponent was great, he needed it!
"Ignorance!" Officer Guo snorted coldly, his figure flashing by, his right hand waving out, forming a blood-red light shadow that struck Zhou Heng.
Swiftly flowing light steps unfolded, no need to urge to the extreme, Zhou Heng lightly let go, the long sword at his waist came out of its scabbard, swish swish swish, nine sword shadows swept past, forming nine black waterfalls, each one a zhang wide and five zhang long, rushing towards Ouyang Qi.
This is no ordinary Flying Waterfall Sword Technique, but rather the essence of the Thirty-six Forms Sword Technique merged into nine swords, with a surge in power!
Fei Pu Jian Fa was originally a human-grade upper-class martial skill, but after being modified by Zhou Heng with the sword intent of Ling Tian Jiu Shi, it reached its due rank - Earth Grade Lower Class! Now, the 36-style swordsmanship has returned to nine, and it is enough to push the power of Fei Pu Jian Fa to the level of Earth Grade Middle Class.
Almost allowing Zhou Heng to possess combat power that transcends a small boundary, instantly making up for the difference in strength between him and Shang Guan Qi!
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Shangguan Qi continuously punched and parried, but ultimately failed to achieve complete success, as a sword waterfall pierced through his chest!
Wow!
The whole field suddenly erupted in a warm applause, and everyone was shouting and roaring, venting the depression in their hearts.
"Good! Good! Good!" Shangguan Qi looked at Zhou Heng with a cold expression, his face icy and his killing intent raging. The blood was boiling at the open chest wound, rapidly healing, and soon there would be no trace of injury left.
What a powerful self-healing ability, I don't know if this is his bloodline power!
"You underestimate me!" Shangguan Qi said calmly, his hands opening wide as they instantly turned a deep crimson. "Let me show you the power of my 12 years of cultivating the Blood Boiling Technique!"
"A river of blood ten thousand li long!"
He let out a loud roar, and his two hands continuously shot out blood-red light shadows, like opening up a fishing net, enveloping Zhou Heng.
Swiftly flowing light steps unfolded, Zhou Heng constantly moved his body in the midst of blood lights, walking freely as if dancing on the tip of a knife, with an extremely nimble and agile feeling.
Blood light flashed by, Zhou Heng stood proudly upright.
"Heh heh, this is a bit unfair!" Zuo Hongchen suddenly said, his right hand raised, and with a series of loud noises, four dark blue light pillars suddenly appeared around Zhou Heng's body, forming four walls that responded to each other.
Zhou Heng punched out a fist, and the light wall just trembled slightly, but did not break.
This is a cage set by the strongman of the three realms, although it can't last forever, but with Zuo Hongchen constantly maintaining it with his spiritual power on one side, as long as his spiritual power doesn't dry up, this cage will exist forever.
"How despicable!"
"Shameless!"
"It's so unfair!"
Zhou Hengyuan's physical strength was his strong point, but now he had lost more than half of it. How could he still fight? The audience on the stage immediately erupted into a chorus of angry curses.
"Hmph!" Zuo Hongchen let out a cold snort, and an aura of terror swept over the scene, rendering everyone silent, with no one daring to say another word.
"Now it's fair, let's fight!" he said with a strange smile.
