Zhang Ruochen released the spatial domain, covering an area of sixty meters, and a cold light flashed in his eyes. "Huo Xing Wangzi, since you've repeatedly tried to kill me, I won't show mercy either. Tonight, it's either your death or my downfall."
"You dare to boast when death is imminent? Fire!" Prince Huo Xing said coldly.
At the word of command.
"Humming"
A string of bowstrings rang out
One hundred soldiers shot out the first wave of shocking thunder arrows, emitting a whistling sound that pierced the air. The dense and numerous arrows flew towards Zhang Ruochen like raindrops.
The first wave of Thunderbolt Arrows had yet to arrive when the second wave was already launched, followed immediately by the third.
A neat and orderly attack, under such an attack, even a martial artist of the highest level would be in danger of falling.
"Whoosh whoosh"
Having reached the Xuanji boundary of the Small Extreme position, Zhang Ruochen's control over the spatial domain became increasingly adept. He stretched out his arms and drew a circle in the void.
The space around his body underwent a one hundred and eighty degree distortion, the Thunderbolt Arrows that shot towards him directly turned around at several meters away from his body, flying back.
"Hmph"
"Hmph"
The thunderbolt arrow fell into the midst of the Tiger Liet Army, shooting soldier after soldier, causing them to fall over and cry out in anguish.
Looking at the scene before him, Prince Huo Xing was stunned and stuttered: "Could it be that he has successfully cultivated the legendary martial art of Divine Shift? How is this possible? Don't use arrows to shoot him anymore, just attack directly. Whoever can kill Zhang Ruochen will be rewarded with half a city."
Kill
Soldiers wearing iron armor and riding fierce beasts immediately rushed up, as if they were about to chop Zhang Ruochen's body into pieces with chaotic knives.
Xiao Hei's cat paws pressed on the ground, and true energy surged out from his paws, activating a pattern of marks. With a loud rumble, a flame burst forth from beneath the earth, transforming into a giant bird of flames over ten meters long.
That one large bird of flame, like a phoenix, charged into the midst of the soldiers, and in an instant set the bodies of over ten soldiers ablaze, burning them to ashes.
Only over a dozen empty iron shells were left on the ground, retaining scorching temperatures, burning the mud with a "sizzling" sound.
"Whoosh"
In another direction, a giant flame bird burst out, flying into the army and igniting soldier after soldier, even setting the entire forest ablaze.
The formation was fully activated, and a hundred Flame Vermilion Birds burst out from the front and back, charging towards all directions and causing heavy casualties to the Tiger Lancer Army led by Prince Huo Xing.
The entire mountain range had turned into a sea of raging flames.
"Your Highness, the enemy has set up a very deadly flame killing array, we've fallen into their trap."
"At least three grandmaster array mages would be needed to set up such a terrifying formation."
Huo Xing Wang's face turned iron-green, he thought that leading two thousand Tiger Guards to deal with Zhang Ruochen was already a sure thing, but he didn't expect that Zhang Ruochen would be an array master, causing huge casualties to the Tiger Guards.
In just a few moments, at least 500 soldiers were killed and many more were seriously injured.
Huo Xing Wangzi never dreamed that the one who set up the formation was a cat, rather than Zhang Ruochen.
"They'll be killed to the last man, haha! Anyone who dares to oppose me will die. There's no escape!" Little Hei sat on the back of a double-headed blood lion, charging forward and trampling a large group of soldiers, crushing them into bloody pulp.
Zhang Ruochen leaped up and landed on the back of the Double-headed Blood Lion, saying: "Go, lead them to the Devil Wind Valley."
"What's wrong? The emperor is in a killing mood today, how can we retreat?" said Xiao Hei.
Zhang Ruochen's face turned solemn as he said, "I've sensed the aura of an extremely powerful expert approaching from this direction. If we don't leave now, we won't be able to escape."
Zhang Ruochen also wanted to get rid of the potential threat posed by Prince Huo Xing, but with his current strength, he was absolutely no match for a strong master like him.
When he heard the three words "Di Ji Jing", Xiao Hei was also startled and said: "Xiao Shuang, hurry up and escape."
The double-headed blood lion carried Zhang Ruochen and Xiao Hei on its back, knocking more than a dozen soldiers flying, and rushed towards the direction of Mofeng Ridge at the fastest speed.
Zhang Ruochen and Xiao Hei had just left when the ground suddenly started shaking violently, as if there was an earthquake.
Rumble
A more than eight-meter-tall unicorn leopard rushed up from the foot of the mountain, knocking down trees one by one, causing huge destructive power.
Three-stage barbaric beast, single-horned golden leopard, combat power comparable to that of a martial artist at the Earth Boundary stage.
On the back of the golden leopard, sat a tall and robust man who looked to be in his forties, with a height of 2.3 meters, wearing a heavy black armor that weighed five hundred kilograms, with arms as thick as water buckets, holding a two-meter-four-inch-long war spear, like a god of war descending into the world.
He took a glance at the miserable scene on the mountain ridge, let out a cold roar and said: "You are the elite third and fourth battalions of the Tiger Liet Army. When you attacked Shunjing City in Yunwu County before, there weren't such heavy casualties. You have disgraced the Tiger Liet Army!"
Huo Xing Wangzi walked out of the soldiers and said, "General Hong Ye, don't blame the soldiers, only blame me. I didn't expect that Zhang Ruochen was actually a master of formation, and he caught me off guard."
"How can he become a master of formation at such a young age?" General Hong Ye's expression softened slightly as he looked at Prince Huo Xing.
General Hong Ye was well aware of the role a master of formation plays on the battlefield, sometimes even able to change the outcome of a war.
Huo Xing Wangzi's face turned gloomy, saying: "General Hong Ye doesn't know that Zhang Ruochen is young but his spiritual power is terrifyingly high, already reaching the 29th rank. With his spiritual power, he can completely become a third-grade array master. His existence is an absolute huge threat to the four directions and states."
Hong Ye General was also shocked, having twenty-ninth-tier spiritual power at just over ten years old was too unbelievable. His eyes sank, and he said, "Is that kid dead?"
Huo Xing Wangzi's face fell as he said, "He got away."
Hong Ye General looked at the marks on the ground, staring in the direction where Zhang Ruo Chen and Xiao Hei left, saying: "He can't escape."
Rumbling
Hong Ye General rode the unicorn golden leopard and rushed out, chasing in the direction of Mo Feng Ridge. Killing Zhang Ruochen would be a great achievement, how could he let go of this opportunity?
Huo Xing Wangzi gathered up those soldiers who were uninjured, about a thousand men, and also chased in the direction of Mo Feng Ridge.
The speed of the Double-Headed Blood Lion was indeed very fast, but how could it compare to the Three-Stage Fierce Beast Single-Horned Golden Leopard? General Hong Ye quickly caught up with Zhang Ruochen and Xiao Hei.
"Things are getting worse, they're catching up!" Little Hei said anxiously.
Zhang Ruochen looked ahead and had already arrived at the foot of the mountain in front of the Magic Wind Valley, just a moment away from rushing into the valley.
But will the general of the extreme border who is chasing after them give them a moment's time?
"It's all over"
Zhang Ruochen took out a war bow from the Time and Space Crystal, simultaneously placing three purple Thunderbolt Arrows on the bowstring, and shot them out.
"Boom"
Three Thunderbolt Arrows were shot towards General Hong Ye's head, heart and horse, with great precision.
The corner of General Hong Ye's mouth hooked slightly, without dodging at all, the two Shocking Thunder Arrows shot towards his skull and heart collided with the thick armor, producing two loud metallic collision sounds, before being deflected away.
That lightning arrow shot at the Golden Unicorn Leopard was bitten by the Golden Unicorn Leopard and swallowed directly into its abdomen.
Seeing this scene, Zhang Ruochen's face changed slightly. The three arrows just now had already used his full strength. An ordinary Xuanji Realm Great Perfection martial artist couldn't withstand it at all. But in front of a Diqiu Realm martial artist, he was actually so vulnerable to a single blow.
"Good shooting, kid! Too bad you don't have enough power yet." General Hong Ye laughed loudly.
Just as the two-headed Blood Lion was about to charge into the Magic Wind Valley, General Hong Ye had already caught up to sixty meters away, fifty meters, forty meters, thirty meters.
Just as the two sides were only twenty meters apart, General Hongye suddenly flew up from the back of the Golden Unicorn, holding a 7.5-meter-long battle spear, carrying a powerful force, and stabbed fiercely at Zhang Ruochen's back.
"It's over, kid"
Hong Ye's spear had not yet landed on Zhang Ruochen, but he already felt a sharp pain all over his body. A fierce and sharp energy tore through the air, ripping apart the clothes on his body.
Zhang Ruochen remained calm and stretched out his hands, pushing forward.
The red general Ye with the spear, seeing Zhang Ruochen's action, revealed a disdainful smile. Relying solely on his hands to block the spear was too naive.
But what happened next changed General Hong Ye's face.
The spear originally pointed at Zhang Ruochen slowly changed direction and flew out from Zhang Ruochen's left side.
Dodged a spear thrust, Zhang Ruochen gained some time.
Double-headed Blood Lion carried Zhang Ruochen and Xiao Hei on its back, charging into the Magic Wind Valley.
"How could this be? What kind of martial arts has he been practicing?"
General Hong Ye gritted his teeth and stared at Zhang Ruochen's back, feeling unbelievable.
"He must die"
Just for a moment, General Redye's eyes were dazed, but then his gaze became firm again, and he leaped onto the back of the Golden Unicorn, chasing into the Devil Wind Valley.
"Little one, you fled into the mountain valley, that's seeking death on your own." General Hong Ye stood on the back of the single-horned golden leopard, looking at Zhang Ruo Chen who had stopped.
Suddenly, his eyes sank and he stared at two young beautiful women standing not far away, saying: "Who are you again?"
Du Mu Xingling's pretty face revealed a hint of a sly smile, her twin peaks lightly trembling as she showed off two rows of snow-white teeth, saying: "You actually ask who we are? I'd like to ask you who you are, daring to chase and kill students of the Wu City Academy. Your guts aren't small, huh?"
Du Mu Xingling was indeed beautiful, and her charm was captivating. Even General Hong Ye was stunned for a moment, never expecting to meet such a stunning beauty in the wilderness.
Judging from her tone, she also seems to be a student of Wushi Academy.
Even if she is a student of the Wushizong Academy, what can be done about it? In Tianmoling, she will be silenced. The Wushizong Academy won't know any better and after everything is over, they'll sell her off on the black market.
Once sold into the black market and becoming a prostitute or slave in it, no matter how great your status was before, you can forget about escaping.
"If I could sleep with her for one night, even if it meant cutting off ten years of my life, that would still be a wonderful thing."
General Hong Ye's gaze fell on Huang Yanchen again, and his eyes showed a look of surprise once more. He was overjoyed in his heart, thinking that heaven had not treated him poorly after all - he had been chasing Zhang Ruochen to kill him, but instead encountered two beauties like celestial beings.
Enjoy it yourself first, then sell it on the black market, and you'll definitely make a fortune.
General Hong Ye could see that Huang Yanchen and Duanmu Xingling were both at the Profound Extreme Realm, and it was impossible for them to be his opponents.
However, he did not know that Huang Yanzhen and Duanmuxingling were both Xuanbang Wuzhe. If he had known, he would not have been so optimistic now.
Seeing General Hong Ye's lewd expression, Huang Yanchen felt an intense disgust and said: "Men are all the same, no matter how high their cultivation is, they can't change their nature."
Zhang Ruochen, who was standing not far away, heard Huang Yanchen's words and slightly furrowed his brow.
