Chapter 733: I'm Here to Get a Golden Coating [Two-in-One]
Chapter 733: I'm Here to Get a Golden Coating [Two-in-One]
A Fourth Rank Sage, eager to prove himself, leaped forward with a cruel smile. Without hesitation, he faced Fang Che, unleashing the power of wind and thunder.
Fang Che, with a calm demeanor, struck out with his sword, not relying on his aura.
However, he aimed for the center, dodging the opponent's blade and, through a clever opening, piercing straight through the opponent's heart.
"Not bad," the Fourth Rank Sage laughed, blocking Fang Che's path with a horizontal sword, forcing a direct confrontation.
But before the first move was over, he realized that Fang Che's technique was more ingenious than his own.
The battle turned into a fierce clash.
Among Fang Che's previous opponents, this one's judgment stood out as exceptional.
However, Fang Che was not one to fear a direct confrontation.
With a clash of blades, sparks flew.
Everyone saw Fang Che stumble backward, but... a sudden burst of blood in the arena left everyone stunned.
The Fourth Rank Sage stood in his original position, but his head was missing from his shoulders. Where was his head?
It was floating in the air.
Many onlookers were bewildered, wondering how this person had been killed. Only a few, like Feng Dao, saw that at the moment the blades clashed, Fang Che's sword, having canceled out the opponent's sword power, suddenly flew out of his hand, rising five inches above his palm.
At that moment, Fang Che grabbed the sword handle again.
Initially, Fang Che's hand was below the sword, but now it was above, and with a swift swing, he not only avoided the opponent's blade but also took off the opponent's head!
Tiger Head's face twisted in shock.
Feng Dao's face also contorted.
A Fourth Rank Sage had been dispatched with such ease.
While the opponent's skill was indeed exceptional, it also revealed the severity of his underestimation.
Both team leaders were left bewildered.
They couldn't fathom how a battle-hardened warrior like this could underestimate his opponent so badly, committing such a fatal mistake.
Only Fang Che knew that his opponent hadn't underestimated him at all.
In that instant, the Heaven Hating Blade's intent had subtly shifted the opponent's center of gravity, and the Nightmare Divine Art had controlled the opponent's sword tip.
This created the appearance of 'underestimation' in the battle.
Fang Che had faced and defeated countless Fourth Rank Sages, so this outcome was no surprise to him. Such maneuvers had become second nature, and he no longer felt the need to boast.
Twisting his body, he held the sword and landed on the ground, staggering as he stood up, forcing out a thread of blood from the corner of his mouth.
"I win!" Fang Che declared proudly, using his sword to support his body.
"Woof!" Wolf Heart cheered.
The atmosphere on their side surged with renewed vigor.
Feng Dao, looking at Fang Che's bloody mouth, twitched. He transmitted, "Relationship, you're really acting. Can't you tell the difference between blood from the gums and blood from the internal organs?"
Fang Che lowered his head and transmitted back, "I can't really force out blood from the internal organs..."
Feng Dao laughed and cursed, "Damn, I misjudged you. You're not a good 'relationship'."
"No, I am a good 'relationship'!"
On the other side, Tiger Head was furious, "Damn, this level of underestimation! Even in death, there's no excuse, and you talk about merits and merits?"
"Send the next one! Don't hold back. What's wrong with all of you? Can't you even kill ants?"
The second opponent stepped forward.
Fang Che skillfully maneuvered, and after a dozen moves, he executed a risky strike, piercing the opponent's heart.
His clothes were torn by the opponent's sword, and he panted as he raised his sword, "I win again!"
This time, both sides fell silent.
Everyone looked as if they had seen a ghost.
The three opponents sent out were not at their peak strength, but they were still formidable.
Usually, a team of five would be dispatched with slightly weaker members, but even then, victory was challenging. Sacrifices were often necessary, and defeat was still possible.
The odds were only fifty-fifty.
Yet, this 'relationship' had only paid the price of a torn garment! Could this be considered a cost? If the first opponent had underestimated him, it was believable.
But the second opponent also underestimated him?
They were all seasoned veterans, not some amateurs.
Tiger Head, the opponent's leader, grew solemn. He felt that the other party was pretending to be weak to lure them into a trap.
However, in terms of strength, the opponent was only at the Venerable Rank.
He wouldn't admit to being wrong even if he gouged out his eyes!
"Send the next one! Prolong the fight, even if we lose, I want to see clearly."
Tiger Head had realized he was facing an extraordinary opponent, someone who could fight across ranks like a fish in water.
No matter how much the opponent pretended, he wouldn't believe it anymore.
Moreover, he already knew the outcome.
Today, none of his three subordinates would likely survive.
But that was fine.
Understanding the opponent's tactics was more important than anything.
He had already made up his mind to guard the Mystic Realm, and if he could kill this genius, it would be a great achievement!
A third Sage-level expert appeared.
While he was still preparing with utmost care, Fang Che had already charged forward.
Malevolent Qi condensed, rushing straight towards a person.
This was a trick he had recently figured out.
The distance between the two quickly closed, and the Malevolent Qi erupted, surging wildly.
Although it was directed at only one person, the hair and clothes of everyone on the other side suddenly fluttered backwards.
In the arena.
Fang Che raised his hand and brought the blade down.
He swiftly and cleanly beheaded a person.
There was no exchange of blows.
He charged forward, beheaded him.
Just like an executioner, he even skipped the executioner's tedious procedures.
This strike shocked everyone, including those from the Only Righteous Sect and the Protectors. They all stared with wide eyes.
It was too fast, too clean!
Feng Dao's eyes widened in an instant.
Because even he, when facing these Sage-level experts, although his cultivation level completely suppressed them, would never be able to achieve such a beheading strike! Their combat experience was truly rich.
But this newcomer, with his connections, simply raised his blade and stepped forward, beheading with a single strike. It was as if he had pulled a scallion from his own garden.
Now, Feng Dao finally understood why this person didn't care about his own disdain and why he seemed so indifferent to everyone's strange words...
Because he had absolute strength!
So what about connections?
What's the problem? I have connections, not only connections, but also strength. What can you do to me?
From the very beginning, this person had maintained this attitude.
On the opposite side, Tiger Head's pupils dilated as he looked at Fang Che, and a cry of surprise escaped his lips, "Malevolent Aura!"
He was a well-traveled and knowledgeable person, and with this strike, he immediately understood the subtleties.
With his words, everyone was collectively shocked.
Feng Dao was immediately reminded: Yes, it's the Malevolent Aura!
He looked up again, and his eyes were filled with awe.
Malevolent Aura!
The higher one's cultivation, the more one would understand the fusion of auras.
Generally, for Venerables and Sages, sword aura, killing aura, and one's own aura are already essential condensed auras.
However, Earthly Aura, Mountain Aura, and Watery Aura require a certain level of insight to comprehend.
Heavenly Aura, Wind Aura, and others are even more like moments of enlightenment, fleeting and difficult to attain.
And all of this stems from the study and evolution of Sun Moon Star Energy. In other words, one must first understand the fusion of auras before being able to incorporate new insights at any time.
To put it in simple terms: You must first learn to read before you can read more and more articles. But different articles provide different insights.
This is a progressive process, and some are things that some people will never comprehend in their entire lives.
And this is just the natural auras.
But the Malevolent Aura is different.
Initially, Duan Xiaying had said, "With millions of corpses beneath your hands, you can walk the martial world without fear."
Using Duan Xiaying's standards to measure everyone was, of course, too harsh. But without the deaths of hundreds of thousands of people, it was indeed difficult to speak of the Malevolent Aura.
And these hundreds of thousands do not refer to the slaughter of the innocent, but to the opponents killed in battle!
Only after killing a certain number can the Yin Malevolent Qi condense, and there is a possibility of forming the Malevolent Aura. But it's just a possibility.
In other words, killing over a million people does not guarantee the ability to condense the Malevolent Aura, but those who can condense it have at least killed a million people!
Calculating based on this, how many people has this seemingly harmless, gentle, handsome, and always smiling... connection killed?
Feng Dao was even a little shocked: Did I just encounter a great expert here?
Tiger Head looked at Fang Che with a serious gaze, scrutinizing him up and down.
Because he sensed danger from Fang Che. He was a Ninth Rank Saint King expert, but this Fourth Rank Venerable guy could actually threaten him? He made him feel dangerous?
This was too far-fetched.
In reality, this was a misconception of Tiger Head. With Fang Che's current strength, he couldn't actually defeat him, but he could pose a threat, and that was certain.
Tiger Head took a deep breath and asked solemnly, "Who are you?"
Fang Che no longer pretended, sheathing his blade slowly, and said indifferently, "I am Connection."
Hearing these two words suddenly, even Feng Dao couldn't help but blush.
Connection, look at the nickname I gave him, he didn't embarrass himself, but I've completely lost face.
If this gets out, I gave a name like this to a great expert who fights above his rank, then I, Feng Dao, will instantly become famous.
Tiger Head said, "I'm asking for your real name."
"Connection."
Fang Che teased, "My surname is Guan, and my name is Xi, can't you hear me?"
Tiger Head narrowed his eyes and said harshly, "Are you mocking me?"
His hands behind his back moved slightly.
Suddenly, ten Sage-level experts flew out, "Dare to mock my boss, you're looking for death!"
Ten figures suddenly appeared in the air.
Feng Dao flew into a rage and shouted, "Despicable!"
But Tiger Head had already yelled, "Wolf Head, you dare to ambush me!"
As he shouted, he flew to block Feng Dao, using all his strength. The two fought fiercely in the air, but Tiger Head firmly blocked Feng Dao from getting past him.
The elbow and armpit were the turning points.
Even within the ranks of the Only Righteous Sect, most of them hadn't reacted yet.
The same went for Wolf Heart and the others; they were still in shock, waiting for the Fortune Spirit Stones, when suddenly, the situation erupted. By the time they reacted and rushed forward, it was already too late.
The ten elite experts from the other side surrounding Guan Xi would likely finish him off in a single move.
However, the crowd roared and charged forward.
It was about to turn into a chaotic battle.
Just then, Fang Che let out a fierce roar.
In an instant, everyone felt as if the sky had caved in, the ground had cracked, and the heavens, earth, sun, moon, stars, wind, and clouds were all in turmoil.
A hellish malevolent aura erupted, exploding with the ferocity of a million-man battle!
The killing intent surged, causing everyone to shudder.
Sword auras surged like raging waves, filling the sky and sweeping across the land.
The first six forms of the Heaven Hating Blade Technique were unleashed by Fang Che in rapid succession!
He had intended to assert his dominance, and now was the perfect time. The ten experts from the Only Righteous Sect at the forefront were directly enveloped by the malevolent and killing auras, subdued by the might of the heavens, earth, stars, wind, and clouds.
Caught off guard, they were left shivering, their eyes filled with hallucinations, unable to defend themselves.
Pfft! Pfft! Pfft...
Blood splattered into the sky, and eighteen cold flashes vanished in an instant.
Boom! Feng Dao and Tiger Head were both shocked, feeling as if their hearts had been seized, and their scalps went numb.
After a brief, intense exchange, they retreated, only to stare at the scene in the center.
Everyone gasped in surprise.
In the center, there was nothing but a pile of shredded flesh.
The ten experts from the Only Righteous Sect who had charged forward were nowhere to be seen, not even a single intact head.
The ground resembled hell.
Standing in the middle was Guan Xi, a blade in his hand. Thick blood dripped from the blade, and in an instant, its edge became as cold as the moon and as clear as water.
Guan Xi's expression was calm.
His gaze was serene.
Taking a step back, the sound of metal clanging filled the air as he sheathed his long sword.
Then, with a wave of his hand, eighteen flying blades with eighteen bloodstained lines returned to him.
He caught them in his hand.
They spun like flowers and vanished, hidden from sight, their location unknown.
The crowd turned their heads.
In the Only Righteous Sect's camp, the eighteen people at the forefront were choking, their throats making gurgling sounds, their eyes bulging with rage, and a fountain of blood gushing from their throats.
Pfft! Pfft! Pfft... Eighteen figures fell one after another.
Hot blood flowed on the ground, instantly freezing, forming a crimson pool.
Everyone felt their throats tighten, unable to speak.
Guan Xi stood in his original spot, saying calmly, "Tiger Head, your ten people broke the rules by ambushing me. I've killed them and taken some interest. Isn't that within the rules?"
The crowd swallowed hard.
Interest...
Rules...
You speak so casually, yet your interest is almost double the principal.
Guan Xi continued, "Also, regarding the Newbie Battle, I've already won three matches. Where are my Fortune Spirit Stones?"
Tiger Head said, "Guan Xi, you've killed so many of us, and you still want the stakes?"
Fang Che replied, "Who broke the rules first? With so many witnesses, it can't be faked. Breaking the rules comes with consequences; what's wrong with that?"
"The matter of breaking the rules is in the past. Let's focus on the Newbie Battle. I'm claiming my winnings; what's wrong with that?"
"Tiger Head, are you trying to welsh on the bet?"
Fang Che's gaze was as sharp as a blade, fixed on Tiger Head.
Feng Dao, full of vigor, said, "Tiger Head, are you trying to welsh on the bet? Do you want to break the rules?"
Although they knew the ambush was likely ordered by Tiger Head, there was no evidence, and the other party had been discreet. Moreover, the most crucial factor was that the other side had lost twenty-eight people due to this ambush!
Arguing about who orchestrated the ambush would be futile.
The immediate priority was to claim the stakes.
This was the most important task.
Tiger Head was reluctant, but he didn't dare to make a move.
Fang Che's hand rested on his sword hilt, while in his other hand, a small flying blade appeared, spinning nimbly in his palm.
Its cold light flickered.
Fang Che's life energy had locked onto Tiger Head, and Feng Dao's aura had also seized him.
Tiger Head didn't want to give in, but he couldn't refuse.
Fang Che stared at him with cold eyes, spinning the flying blade in his hand, "Tiger Head, I won't dwell on who ordered the ambush. I'm being very generous. How can you even think of breaking the rules now?"
He smiled faintly, "I can't kill you, but restraining you for Wolf Head to finish you off is as easy as turning my hand. What makes you think you can survive against us?"
"You should cherish my generosity. I'm a soft-hearted person who doesn't like taking lives."
"But don't be ungrateful!"
These words were spoken with a stern tone, yet they held a certain logic and reasoning.
Moreover, it displayed a grand gesture.
However, this display of magnanimity left everyone speechless. Looking at the hellish scene in the arena, they felt a surge of pent-up frustration.
With just one burst of power, you killed twenty-eight of them, and including the previous three, that makes thirty-one.
Your generosity and tolerance have left us speechless.
And regarding the statement, 'I'm always soft-hearted and dislike killing,' how could you say such a thing with a clear conscience?
"Good, very good!"
Tiger Head nodded fiercely, "Today, we lost the bet and accept the consequences! Relationship, you wait and see!"
He waved his hand, and a Destiny Spirit Stone flew out.
Feng Dao caught the stone, and his aura relaxed.
Tiger Head seized the opportunity to spin and free himself from Feng Dao's aura restraint, instantly retreating three large steps.
He found that he was still locked by the other party's connection, so he burst out with spiritual energy, creating a wave around him. Only then did he manage to break free by shifting his position.
He grunted in frustration, his stomach filled with anger.
However, when he looked at Fang Che's eyes, he saw nothing but apprehension. He had already overestimated Fang Che, so he sent out ten Holy-ranked experts to break the rules and kill him.
Unexpectedly, he failed, and instead, Fang Che counter-attacked, killing twenty-eight of them!
This was a significant loss.
Adding the previous three casualties and the three lost in the bet with Wolf Head, they had lost a total of thirty-four people!
The current squad's strength had been reduced by one-fifth, putting them at an absolute disadvantage.
"Feng Dao, congratulations."
Tiger Head gritted his teeth and said, "It's just a pity that you can't protect this connection!"
He turned and waved, "Retreat!"
Everyone followed and withdrew.
Tiger Head had truly miscalculated this time. If he had honestly challenged with five people, Fang Che, being new, would not have had the chance to establish his authority, and there would have been no room for interference.
Moreover, with such a fight, Only My Religion might not have lost.
But now that Fang Che knew about the Newbie Battle rule, how could he let his people die in vain?
Naturally, he had to step up, breaking the five-man battle rule, killing enemies, and establishing dominance in one fell swoop.
Initially, Fang Che only intended to win the Newbie Battle, as that would have been sufficient. But he never expected the opponent to be so understanding.
Fang Che seized the opportunity, unleashing his power and counterattacking with even greater force, targeting eighteen opponents!
He achieved a remarkable feat by taking down thirty-one people.
Not only were his opponents intimidated, but his own people were also awed into silence.
Such a formidable and ruthless person, surpassing his rank to defeat Holy-ranked experts, was genuinely awe-inspiring in this battle.
A glorious victory!
However, after the win, the Guardian side fell silent, and everyone stared at Fang Che with wide eyes, as if they couldn't believe it.
Several people's eyes were spinning, and they were seeing stars, no need to switch to their perspective to know that these guys were in awe.
"Connection! Haha..."
Feng Dao laughed, but he was laughing at himself.
"Damn it, you hid it well! You made me look like a fool for the ages!"
Feng Dao stepped forward, patted Fang Che on the shoulder, and laughed, "I thought we had a connection, but I was wrong. You're a fierce warrior! Please spare me, oh great one."
"Captain, you're joking."
Fang Che resumed his usual demeanor since arriving here, smiling and humbly saying, "I'm just an ordinary soldier under the Captain."
He nodded and smiled at Wolf Fang, Wolf Eye, and the others, maintaining his modesty. "Please take care of me in the future. I know nothing, and my strength is low. I rely on everyone's help to earn some merit points and bring honor to my ancestors. Connections are like this, so please understand."
"!!!"
Everyone's faces twisted in disbelief.
Wolf Heart said, "My wife minces meat for dumplings, and even she's not this precise!"
Fang Che replied modestly, "Today, they underestimated me due to my low rank... But tomorrow will be different. After all, I got in through connections, so it's only right. Tomorrow, everyone, please be careful. If they really target me, I'll have to rely on my brothers for protection. Especially the Captain, please take good care of me. I'm weak, and if I can't prove myself here, I'll be slaughtered. Captain, you have to take responsibility for me."
