Chapter 1674: I’ll Help with the Last Move!

“Three moves?”

This time, even Jiang Yi’s face became very ugly. General Yun’s thirty-six person guards were Titled God Thearchs; they were all more or less as strong as Ren Tianfan. Zhang Danian was the same. It was already rather insulting for him to spar with them one-on-one, much less trying to withstand mere three attacks.

This was not just shaming Zhang Danian but all ninety-odd of them. General Yun thought that they were all useless imbeciles that were not fit to even carry the shoes of the Nine Yang Army soldiers.

“Great, great, great!”

Zhang Danian was extremely furious as he smiled, and a huge ax appeared in his hands. He said, “I will spar with one of General Yun’s guards. How about you? If you can defeat me in three moves, I will kill myself on the spot.”

Swish! Swish! Swish!

Jiang Yi and company’s faces changed. Zhang Danian actually dared to gamble with such high stakes. If he really lost within three moves—given Zhang Danian’s character, he would definitely kill himself.

Zhang Danian and the other seven Titled God Thearchs had not left after completing the test but had helped everyone else to finish the test requirements as well. This made Jiang Yi and company have some good feelings towards them. Everyone had come to enlist together, and now, they were being allocated to the same army; that made them grow even closer.

Zhang Danian did not even bother checking in detail but casually pointed at one of General Yun’s bodyguards. That person nodded expressionlessly as he said, “Let’s head over to that side.”

Jiang Yi and company were slightly taken aback. That person had pointed at an empty plot of land near the castle. Both competitors were almost King-Ranked formidable martial artists; was it really ideal to battle here? Would they destroy a few castles with just one move each? Perhaps the castles here had powerful restrictions?

“Alright!”

Zhang Danian didn’t care about so much; he wasn’t the one who suggested the venue. He flew towards that location, and he didn’t even remain in midair. Instead, he stood on the empty plot of land as he said, “Make your move.”

General Yun’s personal guard took out a long spear as he walked slowly towards Zhang Danian. Jiang Yi and company didn’t dare to go over as they stood on the spot to observe. General Yun didn’t even bother going over as she stood at the castle door, relaxed as a smirk appeared on her mouth.

The guard walked forward step by step; his steps seemed to have some kind of magical power and contained some absolute laws of heaven and earth. As he walked, Jiang Yi and company’s hearts seemed to beat in unison with his footsteps.

“What kind of mystical ability is this?”

Jiang Yi’s brows furrowed as he shut his senses, not wanting to hear the footsteps. However, he found out that the noise was directly ringing from within his soul spirit. Although they were ten thousand feet from Zhang Danian—as that guard’s footsteps accelerated, Jiang Yi and company’s hearts beat faster as well; their hearts were about to burst.

Furthermore, accompanying this bodyguard’s footsteps was a strange aura surging from his body. Although Jiang Yi and company were facing that bodyguard’s back and couldn’t clearly feel this aura, Zhang Danian’s face actually changed drastically.

This aura was extremely terrifying. It wasn’t that it was a King-Ranked aura; this aura contained something else that somehow made Zhang Danian’s soul spirit tremble vigorously. It was as if a huge wave had appeared on a peaceful lake’s surface; it could not be appeased.

What a thick concentration of baneful aura!

Jiang Yi’s eyes flashed cold. General Yun wasn’t lying; this baneful aura was not weaker than the Sword Emanations King’s. Under such powerful baneful aura’s influence, Zhang Danian might really not be able to withstand three moves.

Swish!

The bodyguard moved as his footsteps quickened, and he leaped into the air as his long spear started to spin. He didn’t release any particularly strong mystical abilities but slammed the spear at Zhang Danian as if it was a metal rod!

“He!”

Zhang Danian roared as he raised his huge ax and chopped at that long spear. The coldness made Jiang Yi’s eyes grew brighter at this sight.

The moment Zhang Danian had tried to go head-on against the long spear, Jiang Yi knew that he was definitely going to lose. Once he was enveloped by the baneful aura, Zhang Danian’s soul spirit would be in a flux; he would become a live target for the bodyguard to attack. His supreme-grade battle armor would surely not be able to block that bodyguard’s attack!

That long spear was… a Primitive Spiritual Treasure!

Bang!

A sound of metal striking metal rang out as the huge ax in Zhang Danian’s hand was sent flying. Zhang Danian retreated furiously in fear as another huge ax appeared in his hands. That huge ax created hundreds of axes as they all slammed at that bodyguard.

Chu!

That long spear pierced straight through like a poisonous snake as the sound of metal striking metal rang out repeatedly. Once again, Zhang Danian’s ax was sent flying as the long spear continued straight and pierced at Zhang Danian’s chest.

What startled many was… Zhang Danian had actually neither evaded nor retreated; he had allowed the long spear to pierce his chest. His supreme-grade battle armor cracked layer by layer as his left chest was pierced, and blood spurted out!

“Ah?”

Zhang Danian cried out in pain as both his hands grabbed that long spear and pulled it out as he retreated swiftly!

“Third move!”

The bodyguard gently jumped as the long spear rose and created many spear shadows that were just about to strike heavily at Zhang Danian.

Ss, ss…

Countless sounds of people sucking in cold breaths could be heard. In merely two moves, two of Zhang Danian’s weapons had been sent flying; one had been destroyed as well. Zhang Danian’s supreme-grade battle armor was also ruined. What was he going to use to deal with the third move? This bodyguard had obviously won; he actually wanted Zhang Danian’s life?

However… no one dared to lend a hand. This was the Nine Yang Army camp, and Zhang Danian was the strongest among them. If even he could not withstand three moves, who among them could?

Swish!

Someone moved. Jiang Yi’s body circulated the Power of Heaven and Earth as he immediately became more than a hundred-fold stronger. Originally when he used the Power of Heaven and Earth, his body was already stronger than Qi Qingchen’s. After being ‘killed’ by the Qilin Empress and his body became two folds stronger, his physical body now was extremely powerful and could rival Heavenly King Long’s.

What speed could such a powerful physical body have? Everyone could only see a figure flashing by, and Jiang Yi was already next to Zhang Danian. Jiang Yi’s voice rang out, “I’ll help him to take the third move!”

Boom!

The long spear struck as Jiang Yi stretched out a hand and blocked the long spear. Jiang Yi’s armlet was heavily struck by the long spear, and it started to crack. He was only wearing a supreme-grade battle armor; how could he withstand a Primitive Spiritual Treasure’s attack?

“Uh?”

What happened next bewildered everyone present. That long spear had destroyed Jiang Yi’s armlet and hit Jiang Yi’s arm. However, Jiang Yi’s arm did not break apart but quivered slightly. As Jiang Yi’s body shook with it, the stone floor beneath his feet cracked and his legs fell into the flooring. However, Jiang Yi’s face did not change a little bit. His eyes were like ice as he looked at the bodyguard in midair; they were as cruel as a wild beast’s.

Ss, ss…

Many people looked at Jiang Yi’s chiseled arm as they blinked a few times, thinking that they were mistaken. What was this arm made of? How could it withstand such a powerful attack? He wasn’t even hurt at all?

“This isn’t right!”

Some people suddenly thought of something. Jiang Yi’s speed had been so fast; it was not a God Thearch’s speed, and it definitely surpassed normal King-Ranked formidable martial artists’ as well.

Jiang Wuming actually concealed his strength? He is a King-Ranked formidable martial artist?

A thought floated in ninety-odd men’s heads. General Yun at the side, however, icily spat out three words that only she could hear, “Mighty God Technique!”
