Chapter 708: Black Demonized Zhao Er
Chapter 708: Black Demonized Zhao Er
2017-09-25
As Lu Hai Kong suppressed Meng Qu, using fists imbued with the inner strength of the Purple Qi Ascending Dragon Technique to free Meng Qu from the control of the Demon Armament, a battle raged on the other side.
The combatants were Zhao Er, who had been black demonized, and Meng Chao, the leader of the Qin People, along with two other Qin masters whose martial prowess exceeded 85.
In terms of true martial might, Zhao Er and Meng Chao had a noticeable gap before Zhao Er's black demonization. However, after the transformation, Zhao Er's martial prowess had already surpassed 90.
To be fair, a martial prowess of 90 wasn't extraordinary. Meng Chao's prowess stood at an impressive 92, which could easily overpower Zhao Er. However, Zhao Er possessed a unique general trait that passively increased his own martial prowess by 5 points.
The reason Zhao Er's trait didn't work against Meng Qu was due to the latter's general traits. But against Meng Chao, Zhao Er's trait remained in effect, making his true martial prowess at this moment an astonishing 95.
Under these circumstances, the battle became intensely captivating.
Aside from the martial prowess advantage, Zhao Er's spear technique, in addition to the explosive power of his original Phoenix Flame Spear Technique, had also fused with the Demon Armament's wickedness and killing aura. This combination resulted in a remarkably effective spear technique that was both uncanny and fiercely explosive.
Meng Chao, on the other hand, utilized a spear technique passed down from the ancient Qin, seemingly originating from the spear techniques of Meng Tian and Meng Yi.
His spear technique was originally designed for battle formations, but as the Qin People rarely engaged in such formations over the centuries, their spear technique gradually evolved.
This modified spear technique retained the killing aura and power of battlefield formation techniques while also incorporating the agility and finesse suitable for individual duels. It was indeed an exceptional martial skill.
It was only through this martial skill and their inherited heart method that the Qin People could establish themselves in the Wind Spirit Valley.
However, when used against Zhao Er, this spear technique fell short.
Zhao Er, a veteran of the battlefield, had experienced far more battles than Meng Chao. His understanding of battlefield techniques was deeper than Meng Chao's. Meng Chao was using a martial skill that he himself hadn't fully grasped against Zhao Er, which was akin to asking for a beating.
From the start of their battle, Meng Chao was thoroughly dominated by Zhao Er. If not for the support of several other powerful Qin warriors, Meng Chao might have been defeated much earlier.
Despite the assistance of his fellow Qin warriors, Meng Chao's defeat was inevitable.
The disparity in strength between the two sides was evident from the start. Zhao Er not only possessed greater martial prowess and battle records but also had a set of equipment that, while not legendary, was extremely close to it.
Zhao Er was Lu Hai Kong's trusted and beloved general. Given Lu Hai Kong's penchant for favoring his subordinates, how could he not support Zhao Er?
Zhao Er's equipment was custom-made for him by Gongshu Hammer himself, a master blacksmith who tailored it to Zhao Er's specifications. Even without being legendary, it was far superior to ordinary equipment.
After Zhao Er's black demonization, his equipment seemed to have been enhanced as well. His defensive capabilities now far exceeded that of legendary equipment, while Meng Chao's gear was barely at the elite level.
The difference in equipment between the two sides was stark.
Even facing three opponents, Zhao Er easily suppressed Meng Chao and his allies!
As the battle continued, Zhao Er's advantage became increasingly evident. Finally, after fifteen minutes, the battle reached a critical juncture.
Zhao Er, combining his Phoenix Flame Spear Technique with the killing aura and wickedness of the Demon Armament, relentlessly accumulated advantages while facing three opponents. After fifteen minutes, Zhao Er's advantage fully erupted.
Zhao Er unleashed the killing move, Phoenix Inferno, from his Phoenix Flame Spear Technique!
In an instant, a Phoenix engulfed in black qi rose behind Zhao Er as his spear technique exploded forth!
With a single strike, three crisp shattering sounds rang out as Meng Chao and the two Meng clan experts had their weapons shattered.
Zhao Er, relentless in his advantage, charged again. The Phoenix behind him flashed once more, and another killing move of the same caliber erupted.
"Not good, retreat!"
Meng Chao's face paled as he shouted a warning,
But his actions were a step too late. Before he could finish speaking, Zhao Er's spear had already struck the two Meng clan experts.
The terrifying force directly killed them on the spot!
Seizing the opportunity, Zhao Er swiftly turned and thrust his spear towards Meng Chao. Meng Chao reacted swiftly, barely managing to dodge the spear, but he was still injured by the black killing aura that burst from the spear, his face turning deathly pale as he spat out a mouthful of blood.
Meng Chao, Meng Qu, and Meng Chao were still the three most powerful individuals that the Qin people could mobilize. Even with their combined efforts, they were defeated by Zhao Er, which demonstrated Zhao Er's formidable strength.
This terrifying power was enough to crush any hopes the Qin people might have had. Once Meng Chao died, the Qin people would essentially be finished.
However, just as Zhao Er was about to approach and take Meng Chao away, the Qin people who had been watching from the sidelines suddenly sprang into action.
In reality, these Qin people knew that they were signing their death warrants by charging towards Zhao Er. A being of his caliber was far beyond their capabilities, yet they rushed forward without a second thought.
Everyone was aware that Meng Chao was their only hope. They couldn't allow him to die at Zhao Er's hands; only if Meng Chao survived would they have a chance against these black demon cavalry.
The scene was both sorrowful and heroic. One by one, the Qin people, fully aware of their impending death, charged forward without hesitation, using their flesh and blood to buy time for Meng Chao's retreat.
The Qin people's spirit was moving, but sometimes, in the face of absolute power, such spirit becomes utterly useless.
Despite the efforts and even the lives of these Qin people, they still couldn't stop Zhao Er.
Zhao Er, amidst the resistance of this group of Qin people, forcefully fought his way through to Meng Chao, striking him with a spear and sending him flying over ten meters.
As Meng Chao was knocked away, the Qin people watched as his body crashed into several houses, and the moment he collapsed, motionless, a feeling of despair spread among them.
Even the mighty Meng Chao had been defeated. Who else could stand against Zhao Er now?
As this question echoed in the minds of the Qin people, a sinister smile crept onto Zhao Er's face.
Zhao Er was no longer Meng Qu. He had been black demonized for three days, and by this time, even his mind had been somewhat corrupted.
At this point, Zhao Er's mind was no longer clear. All he knew and cared about was slaughter.
After Meng Chao's defeat, Zhao Er's killing spree began anew.
In the 1619th chapter, in the original version,
No matter the rank of the Qin people before him, none could withstand his spear attack.
As the beautiful crimson blood bloomed, Zhao Er transformed into an unstoppable, unbeatable demon in the eyes of the Qin people.
The advantageous situation where the Qin elite forces were fighting against the black demon cavalry was once again crushed by the latter.
"Oh heavens, how can such a being exist?"
"They are unbeatable. They are the very embodiment of destruction!"
"Is this the end of the Qin people?"
Whether they were engaged in battle or hiding in houses, fear enveloped the Qin people.
"Is there no one who can save us?"
At this moment, someone muttered, and many among the elite Qin forces thought of that domineering voice.
Lu HaiKong was in the crowd, and many didn't know that the voice belonged to him. Some didn't even know who was speaking, but they could all sense the power emanating from that domineering voice.
People started praying for that person to appear and save them in this critical moment.
Lu HaiKong answered their prayers!
"【Peerless Overlord】"
A clear and commanding voice resonated, and a mysterious force affected every Qin person.
This force, emerging from despair, gave all the Qin people a boost of determination.
Almost simultaneously, Lu HaiKong's figure burst out from the village, riding on 【Xiao Luzi】, adorned in a golden, luxurious battle armor, and wielding the Wilderness Axe high with a domineering purple inner strength.
In this moment, Lu HaiKong appeared as a savior, both in identity and image!
In that instant, all the Qin people who saw Lu HaiKong, whether they knew him or not, realized that he was their only hope.
"All Qin warriors, dismount and use the terrain to your advantage. Find opportunities to hold your ground. Leave this black demon general to me!"
At Lu HaiKong's command, the previously dazed Qin people sprang into action.
As the Qin people moved, Lu HaiKong arrived before Zhao Er, and without hesitation, he swung his Wilderness Axe, infused with purple inner strength, and struck Zhao Er with a powerful blow, knocking him and his horse back several meters.
Lu HaiKong showed no mercy, even against Zhao Er, and the force of his blow was evident.
For a fleeting moment, Zhao Er's eyes cleared, but the clarity vanished, and he returned to his previous madness.
Witnessing this, Lu HaiKong's eyebrows furrowed, and he tightened his grip on the Wilderness Axe.
"I never thought I'd face you in such a situation, you bastard!"
