My Cultivation Starting from Archery-Chapter 673 - 218: Killing Soldier Immortal, Taking Mang Mountain

Among the ruins of broken walls and shattered battlements.

On the gun blade of Chen Sansi's silver spear, the power released by Han Xiang and Zou Hu still lingered, emitting a faint hum.

In his mind, the already extremely familiar "Dragon Scripture" became even clearer.

In the midst of the bloody battle and strategic contest.

The last of the Eight Scenic Gods in the upper part, finally began to awaken slowly.

From within the white robe, a burst of red light erupted.

The God of Tongue!

Named Shi Liangzhi, styled Dao Qi, seven inches long, dressed in red!

The Eight Scenic Gods in the upper part, awakened!

At that moment.

All eight Scenic Gods awakened simultaneously, connecting like unblocking acupoints, allowing the "Divine Power" within the body to be reborn.

The Breathing Skill was deployed.

The Spiritual Energy hidden within the meridians.

Under the transformation of the Eight Scenic Gods, it seemed to form the Five Elements and Eight Diagrams within the body, turning Spiritual Energy into True Power, then through a special Breathing Skill, igniting the misplacement of the Eight Diagrams to call forth blazing flames.

The Fire Breathing Technique!

[Cultivation Technique: Dragon Scripture (True Power Early Stage)]

[Progress: 0/500]

[Utility: Li Fire]

[Li Fire: The Power of the Five Elements, transforming Spirit into Fire]

Breakthrough!

True Power Realm!

Fire Snakes surged out from the seven orifices and climbed onto the Longdan Bright Silver Spear.

Chen Sansi, standing atop the sandstorm, was like a Fire God.

"A breakthrough amidst battle?!"

Zou Hu's pupils trembled violently as he witnessed this scene.

It was only now.

That he finally understood what was wrong during their previous exchange.

This guy...

Had been using him for "training" all along!

Utilizing their combat to cultivate, in order to achieve a breakthrough as quickly as possible!

From the very beginning!

He was just a training post!

This is too much!

Zou Hu's entire body, filled with the Gold Element's deadly aura, completely materialized, but at the same time, his expression turned even graver.

Previously, even suppressing a whole realm higher, he had still been unable to quickly kill him.

Now that the opponent had achieved a breakthrough amidst battle, the situation was likely to become even more troublesome.

"Chen Sansi!"

In the sky, Han Xiang's cold eyes revealed a disdainful anger, "A leader of soldiers, daring to gamble with danger? Had I arrived just half an incense stick earlier, you would not have had time to achieve your breakthrough and would have definitely died under my sword! You have quite the nerve, gambling that I would first attack Gengyang Prefecture. You truly do not deserve to lead an army, let alone bear the prestigious title of 'Master of War'!"

"Gamble?"

Chen Sansi lifted his flame-filled eyes, staring directly at the Military Immortal, "When did I ever gamble?"

A leader of soldiers.

Indeed should not gamble with danger.

Unless absolutely necessary, they would not stake everything on a wild bet.

Initially, he had only considered it a seventy percent certainty that the provisions would be in Wu City, and waited until Liao Fang confirmed it before launching a surprise attack on that place.

From start to finish, he never gambled.

"No gamble?"

Han Xiang's eyes twitched incredulously, "You mean, you were certain I would attack Gengyang Prefecture instead of coming to support Wu City? On what basis?!"

Despite all his scheming, he could not understand.

Attacking Gengyang Prefecture and supporting Wu City, from the perspective of the chessboard, both had a fifty percent chance of occurring.

"Why? I told you long ago,"

Chen Sansi's voice echoed between heaven and earth, "Because your chess is dead, and my people are alive!

"Does a chess player care about the life and death of a chess piece? Without care, how would he come here to pit his life against mine?!

"If you dare not risk your life, how can you triumph amidst danger?!

"Han Xiang!

"You have calculated everything, yet you forgot the most fundamental point!"

There was a pause from within the white robe.

As he spoke, his voice seemed like a decree from the Fire God from beyond the Ninth Heaven, strikingly loud."

"When on a narrow path, the bold prevail!"

Han Xiang, from beginning to end, saw himself as a chess player outside the board, regarding the soldiers of West Qi as chess pieces. How could he care about the lives of his soldiers? Since he did not care, he would definitely choose to attack Gengyang Prefecture, which posed a lower risk to himself.

Therefore...

Chen Sansi's breakthrough amidst battle was both accidental and inevitable, following his insight into the Military Immortal's flaw!

A leader of soldiers.

Without the resolve to live and die with his men, how could he possibly achieve a surprise victory?!

A surprise force?

He himself was the strongest surprise force!

Han Xiang, listening to these words, had an unsettled expression on his face, contemplating something in his mind, which finally turned into greater anger, as he rebuked coldly, "Stop your nonsensical prattle, even if you've made a breakthrough to the True Power Realm, so what? You're already gravely injured, and the two of us together might still have the capacity to kill you! Daoist friend, let's strike!"

The flying sword was fully charged.

An overwhelming sword light poured down onto the ruins, as if the Milky Way had fallen from the nine heavens.

"Boom——"

The dragon roared and howled!

The silver spear, bolstered by the flames of True Power, transformed into a Fire Dragon Divine Statue and soared to meet the sky, stirring True Power, flames ascending. Thereupon it tore through the Milky Way, evaporated the celestial river!

The sword light instantly disintegrated, leaving behind only trails of white smoke!

Han Xiang barely maintained control of his flying sword, continuously casting spells and using talismans to recall it to his hand. Hit by the colossal force, he flew backwards hundreds of yards like a kite with a broken string, while at the same time, the air in front of him grew unbearably hot as the Fire Dragon that had torn through the sword light came straight for his face, drawing nearer and nearer.

He formed seals with both hands and successively activated five defensive talismans, conjuring up five Golden Light barriers in front of him.

These.

Were all top-grade talismans!

The Fire Dragon chased after him.

Shattered!

Burst!

Collapsed!

Split!

Accompanied by the sound of glass shattering, the barriers cracked one after another, until the fifth barrier barely managed to halt the Fire Spear's advance, but it held for only a breath's time.

Fortunately.

That brief moment was enough for Zou Hu to act. The Divine Power Golden Hoop once again crisscrossed, transforming into an iron chain whip under the shimmering purple light, slashing down from the sky.

Han Xiang also brought out a black chess piece and pressed it forward to suppress everything in front of him.

Together, the two men struck.

One blow came down.

But after the loud noise, instead, they both were blown away by the terrifying True Power.
