Chapter 1028: Chapter 625: Risking One’s Life

“This…”

Upon hearing the prompt from the Sky-reaching Tower, the faces of several supporting Lords changed instantly, looking extremely ugly; Zhou Tianqi and the other two also furrowed their brows.

“A second-order Legendary Sealing Order?”

“The safe period has just ended; where did he get such a thing?”

“It must be a reward he obtained from sacrificing some rare item to the Civilization Wonders after attacking the Demon Abyss Territory.”

“What should we do now?”

The supporting Lords were both shocked and furious, and the people from the Zhou Family were also panic-stricken, all casting their gaze towards Zhou Tianqi.

The Territory World possesses a hidden home field advantage, not only enhancing effects of major spells such as Wind and Rain Summoning, but also strengthening the efficacy of various Conquest Orders.

This “Yellow Heaven’s Fury Order” was one such example; although only a second-order Legendary, due to the home field advantage of the Territory World, its actual effect was feared to be on par with a Mythical Ban.

On the other hand, they, as visitors, were competing on an enemy field, suppressed by the opponent’s Territory World. To break through this Yellow Heaven’s Fury Order, they would need at least a third-order Mythical Retreat Order.

As for third-order Legend Orders and second-order Mythical Orders, not to mention any loss of effect, they too would be greatly weakened—the speed of establishing a teleportation portal would be incredibly slow, a result of give-and-take.

Looking ahead at the Yuntai Twenty-Eight Generals and Four Symbols Battle Formation, who were already retreating in defeat and no longer maintaining ranks, none believed they could wait for that moment.

Only a third-order Mythical Breaking Ban Order could allow them to immediately extract themselves and retreat from this place without any danger.

But such a level of Conquest Order was an extremely precious lifeline, and even third-order Lords did not possess many; what more these second-order Lords?

Among them, only key figures like Zhou Tianqi, Ning Bozhong, and Tantai Qin had the Divine Skill Talent that would compel their respective powers to make such an investment.

But…

“At this point, what else can be done!”

Zhou Tianqi swept his cold gaze across the crowd, “Our escape route has been cut off; we have no choice but to fight to the death. Today, it’s either his demise or our extinction. I advise you all not to harbor any illusions of luck. Only by going all out, putting our lives on the line in a desperate battle, can we hope to make it out of here intact.”

Hearing his words, faces turned ashen, and the hearts of the supporting Lords sank further.

When things had been laid out this clearly, it meant Zhou Tianqi did not have a third-order Mythical Breaking Ban Order; even if he did, it would only save himself and could not take everyone else with him. To survive, they would have to put all they had on the line, risking everything in a fight to the death against that man.

Zhou Tianqi made his position clear, and what could they say in response? They could only grit their teeth and agree, “Brother Zhou speaks truly; we shall do our utmost to capture this villain!”

Zhou Tianqi nodded, then turned his gaze to Ning Bozhong and Tantai Qin, “I will activate the Complete Heaven Sword Formation to serve as the edge to break the enemy, but we must act according to the situation. I will need you two to hold them off.”

Ning Bozhong and Tantai Qin looked at each other, hesitating but eventually nodded in agreement, “We’ll follow Brother Zhou’s plan!”

After speaking, Tantai Qin turned her gaze towards Liu Xiu who was by her side.

Liu Xiu’s brows were tightly knitted, but he didn’t say much, directly drawing his sword and galloping towards the battlefield.

The son of wealth would not sit idly; as an emperor who had already established great achievements, he did not approve of such risks.

But he had no choice. Tantai Qin only had one third-order Mythical Breaking Ban Order, which using would equate to abandoning him. She would not wish to do so unless absolutely necessary.

Thus, this Mythical Hero decked in Divine Equipment had to be deployed as the last line of defense, blocking that person to buy time for Zhou Tianqi and Ning Bozhong.

…

All these words seemed long, but in reality, they happened in the blink of an eye.

Liu Xiu spurred his horse forth, entering the battlefield with his armor shining brilliantly, almost as if Dragon Qi itself formed a shape and circled around him.

…

Crowned with the Hundred Kings Crown, armored with the Hundred Kings Armor, booted in the Hundred Kings Boots, and wielding the Hundred Kings Sword!

Liu Xiu, dressed in his divine equipment, arrived on horseback, entering the dense ranks of the army, his sword facing the Ghost God.

“Bang!!!”

With a loud explosion and sparks flying, the Hundred Kings Sword parried the Unrivaled Halberd, saving the life of a Yuntai General who was on the brink of death.

“Your Majesty?!”

The Yuntai General, having narrowly escaped death and seeing it was Liu Xiu who had come to the rescue, was filled with gratitude mixed with anxiety, “Be careful, this person is not ordinary…”

“Bang!!!”

Before the words were finished, another loud noise was heard, and Liu Xiu, unable to bear the force, staggered back, both he and his horse retreating.

“Your Majesty!”

The remaining generals saw this and immediately rushed to assist on their galloping steeds, boldly ready to face the thunderous spear blade head-on.

“Such divine power!”

Liu Xiu reined in his mount, only to feel a throbbing pain and numbness in his right hand, blood flowing from the tiger’s mouth, indicating the severity of the force just endured.

As a mythical hero, although not a fierce combatant, with the boost of divine equipment and various skills, his physical attribute had reached as high as three hundred points. Still unable to withstand the opponent’s weapon, the opponent’s strength was formidable.

Suppressing the shock in his heart, Liu Xiu looked up to see a figure in the midst of battle, like a Ghost God descending upon the world, crowned with fluttering phoenix wings, covered in a fierce beast-faced armor, wielding a Sky Halberd with thunderous might, and Red Hare neighing like a dragon in the wind, single-handedly pressing down the Yuntai Generals with the power of one man.

Even as he, an emperor, entered the fray, the Yuntai Generals fought valiantly without fear of death, but courage failed to match strength. Several generals working together still struggled to fend off the thunderous spear blade, and in the blink of an eye, another fell dead.

“Your opponent is I!”

Such a scene made Liu Xiu’s eyes nearly split with rage. He directly abandoned his mount and leaped sword in hand towards his enemy.

“Wind and Cloud Dual Extremes!”

Dragon from the clouds, tiger from the wind, Liu Xiu wielded his king’s sword, and the wind and clouds stirred as if a True Dragon emerged from the sea.

True Dragon emerged from the sea, stirring wind and clouds, and once the sword entered the battlefield, it fashioned a storm, sweeping the opponent into a maelstrom.

Wind and Cloud Dual Extremes: Create a gigantic storm, dealing damage equal to physical strength + strong strike X10 to enemies within the storm, with the damage effect increased by 300% when there is only one target.

Skill Introduction: Dragon from the clouds, tiger from the wind, the wind formless, the clouds fickle—this is the Emperor Swordsmanship of the Han Dynasty Ancestor Liu Bang, which integrates the momentum of wind and cloud into swordplay. Harmonizing wind and clouds like the intersection of dragon and tiger, it can erupt with earth-shattering might.

…

Knowing the strength of his opponent, Liu Xiu did not hold back and delivered his mightiest strike. Wind and clouds converged; dragons and tigers intersected, the sword became a storm, and the storm became a sword, grinding the one within into fine dust.

However…

Xu Yang’s eyes flashed sharply, silent, merely spinning his war halberd, instantly turning his thunderous movements into the vehemence of a storm.

“Rumble!”

With the rise of the wind and thunder, a storm within a storm appeared, and a vortex within vortex.

In the midst of inward and outward storms colliding, it seemed like wind and clouds clashed, but in truth, swords and halberds struck against each other.

Each swirl of wind and clouds, every collision, each roar, represented the confrontation between the Hundred Kings Dragon Sword and the Thunderbolt Battle Halberd, a clash of man against man, force against force.

Finally…

“Boom!”

A deafening noise shook the heavens and earth, mixed with the lament of a True Dragon and the clang of metal on metal.

Sword of wind and cloud, momentum of dragon and tiger utterly dispersed, leaving in their wake a wildly expanding storm of raging wind and thunder.

“Your Majesty!!!!!”

Caught by surprise, the Yuntai Generals could only cry out in alarm as they were swept into the storm, buried amidst the thunder.

“Our hero ‘Li Zhong’ has been slain by the enemy Lord ‘Xu Yang’!”

“Our hero ‘King’ has been slain by the enemy Lord ‘Xu Yang’!”

“Our hero ‘Ma Cheng’ has been slain by the enemy Lord ‘Xu Yang’!”

“Our side…”

A series of notifications rang out, turning the face of Tantai Qin in the camp ghastly pale.

“Boom!”

With the final roar, the storms dispersed, thunder surged, revealing a terrifying scene of wreckage, flesh, and ash, bones charred, an unknown number of lives lost in that thunderous storm.

“Now is the time!”

From the camp behind, someone roared, and Ning Bozhong, having lost a multitude of souls, followed suit. Surrounded by his personal guard Taoist Soldiers, he unleashed the long-accumulated Netherworld Taoist Skill.
