Chapter 106 106: Survive



"Enough of this hide and seek! Enough of this playing around! You want to kill me? Then come here! I'll find you an opportunity!" Qin Ye exclaimed, as his frustration reached the peak!

"Oh my, I was only guessing, but it looks like you really don't have much of a lifespan left to sacrifice, do you?" 

Xu Shan held a dagger in his right hand and the communication orb in his left. His eyes revealed a look of understanding. 

Qin Ye was the person who was more into these games, after all. For him to stop and directly ask for them to meet... It was clear that he didn't have much use of the Book left. Either that, or he was bluffing. 

However, Xu Shan had a feeling that this wasn't a bluff!

"Don't worry. I am in a hurry as well. I'll definitely come to you. But first, you should try to survive what's to come..." Xu Shan smiled as he kept the combination orb in his pocket 

He rushed toward the Cavalry which was guarding the entrance to the Royal City of the Sky Dynasty.

"Find a way to survive?" Qin Ye frowned, repeating the words of Xu Shan. 

However, right then, he heard a loud roaring in the sky. The barrier that was erected over the Royal City was split apart. 

Usually it was impossible for a person to break the Barrier that easily. Even though the barrier wasn't as strong as the barrier around the Celestial Palace, it was still formidable. 

The only way to break the barrier was to know the weakest point of the barrier that covered the entire city! And there were only a few people who knew about that weak point. 

Qin Ye had already killed all of them, to protect this secret... everyone except one person!

He looked at the empty spot before him, where his wife was previously sitting. His face twisted as he realized how this information leaked!

His fists tightened.

As soon as the barrier around the Royal City broke, the void opened up in the sky, and two tall figures stepped out of the void. 

One of the two was the Celestial Palace Master. As for the other, it was none other than Xu Shan's father!

The grandeur of the Royal City of Sky Dynasty was a sight to behold. Its towering walls loomed over the vast expanse of land, casting a majestic shadow that added to its charm and allure.

Protected by a formidable cavalry, it was a fortress that withstood countless sieges. Now that the city was under a civil war, most of the forces were busy inside!

However, many Generals from the First Army were at the entrance of the Royal City to safeguard it, hiding in the shadows.

It was only when they sensed the aura of another Heavenly Celestial, they came out of the void, revealing themselves in the sky. 

With the morning sun casting a golden glow across the sky, Xu Shan found herself standing just a short distance from the entrance of the Royal City.

The sound of galloping hooves grew louder as the cavalry of the Sky Dynasty approached. Clad in gleaming armor and wielding deadly spears, the cavalrymen exuded an air of invincibility. Even the weakest amongst them was a Peak Sky Celestial!

"No one is allowed here! Identify yourself or we'll be forced to kill you!" The Leader of the Cavalry, a Heavenly Celestial, spoke. 

The Leader had just finished speaking. However, right then, he felt a wave of killing intent wash over him. 

A dagger flew toward him, tossed by Xu Shan. His figure flickered, as he avoided the dagger. 

Unfortunately, it was only when he dodged that he heard a painful groan coming from behind him. 

A shadow came to light, revealing itself to be one of the Generals of the Sky Dynasty, who was standing behind the leader of the Cavalry. The dagger had penetrated his skull. 

"As I just told an old friend, I don't have much free time. So let's not waste it with introductions!" 

He raised his right hand, tossing a small crystal in the air, that he had asked from his father. 

As soon as the crystal flew in the air, it burst into specks of light. 

The specks of light flew high in the sky, before gathering into a circle, opening a spatial portal. 

"Enemies!" The Leader of the Sky Dynasty Cavalry roared. 

One of the Heavenly Celestials of the Sky Dynasty flew toward the sky, to destroy the portal before it could become big enough for ships to pass through. 

Even though the portal was currently only big enough for one person to add through, but through the portal, the Sky Dynasty Generals could see multiple majestic ships of the Eternal Dynasty on the other side. 

The Heavenly Celestials raised his ancient spear, gathering all his strength in the spear before tossing it toward the spatial portal to destroy it!

At the same time, the first wave of horsemen charged towards Xu Shan, their steeds thundering beneath them. 

Swift as a falcon, Xu Shan dove to the side, narrowly avoiding a spear aimed at his heart. 

With lightning reflexes, he lunged forward, his dagger finding its mark. A spray of crimson erupted as the cavalryman fell from his horse, his body hitting the ground with a thud.

As he killed the person, he was able to use his dagger itself to absorb their strength, to become even stronger!

The clash of steel and the thunder of hooves filled the air as the battle raged on. Xu Shan weaved through the chaos, his movements fluid and precise. 

He relied on agility and speed, ducking and rolling to evade the cavalry's onslaught. His dagger became an extension of his arm, a deadly extension that struck with lethal accuracy.

At the same time, high in the sky, the spear of the Heavenly Celestial was about to hit the spatial portal. 

However, before it could guy, a blood red sword came out of the spatial portal, being held by a towering figure.
