Hozon’s fighting style was tremendously sly and cunning, always attacking from unexpected angles. But this time, when he struck, he suddenly switched styles, swinging wide and hitting hard!
Such a drastic change took even Xiao Zheng by surprise. His body abruptly retreated, his hands drawing a set of complex trajectories, forming an impregnable defense like a wall of bronze and iron, fending off Hozon’s punches.
A succession of muffled sounds.
In that instant, their fists and palms met at least a hundred times, the speed nearly surpassing the human limit, causing the air to emit a series of explosive sounds!
Finally, Hozon threw a powerful punch at Xiao Zheng’s head, his footsteps stomping firmly as he flipped backwards in the air, retreating rapidly towards the rear.
"Not good, he’s trying to escape!"
Xiao Zheng instantly saw through Hozon’s intent and, without a second thought, halted his own rapid retreat and surged forward.
"Hahaha, Xiao Zheng, no need to see me off."
Hozon let out a burst of wild laughter, tapped the ground with his foot, and his whole body sprang lightly up, leaping toward the cabin.
Whirring whirring whirring...
The already-prepared helicopter soared into the sky like an eagle taking flight, shooting straight into the heavens.
Even Xiao Zheng, a demonically skilled master, felt helpless at this point. After all, the human body has its limits and cannot fly.
"Fleeing the battle, you’ve ultimately lacked a cutting edge."
Xiao Zheng stood on the ground, a cold smile on his lips.
From their recent exchange, it was clear that Hozon’s strength, although not as formidable as his own, wasn’t far behind. Such a master choosing to flee from battle was simply contemptible.
Among the strongest in martial arts, each had an unwavering confidence. Facing a true battle, they absolutely could not flee; otherwise, it would leave a flaw in their spirits, making it difficult to make any progress thereafter.
It’s not something that’s hard to understand. Put simply, if one fled from battle, their self-confidence would be affected, making them hesitant in the next fight.
Once hesitancy sets in, that means defeat.
"Our game has just begun."
However, Hozon seemed unaffected, sneeringly replying, "Once the game begins, it is destined to have only one winner. For victory, temporary endurance of humiliation is necessary.
Xiao Zheng, you just wait. I will come back. And the day I return will be the day you die!"
Xiao Zheng coldly said, "I’m waiting."
The helicopter roared away, but the sounds of battle still echoed from afar. Xiao Zheng’s gaze grew cold as he watched the retreating helicopter for a moment before turning to head towards where Long Qie was.
Although Hozon had left, his base remained, and this base contained most of Hozon’s forces. Xiao Zheng decided to annihilate them all.
He leapt onto his horse and galloped away, quickly arriving at Long Qie’s battlefield.
The scene was a grisly one, with limbs and body parts strewn everywhere, blood flowing freely, and the injured members of the legend wailing loudly on the ground.
At this moment, Long Qie was like a War God bathed in blood. He wielded a battle axe, rode a black steed, and charged into a group of people. With a loud roar, he swung his battle axe into a sweep of cold light.
A series of dull sounds rang out as blades penetrated flesh, and with Long Qie’s fierce attack, three heads soared into the air, blood spraying wildly.
"This guy’s too powerful, take out his horse first!"
Someone bellowed, and immediately many rushed forward with a fearless charge, some wielding blades, some wielding long swords, all attacking Long Qie’s steed.
They were numerous, at least a dozen, converging from all directions. They swiftly inflicted severe wounds on the steed, as blade after blade sank into the animal’s body.
Long Qie roared in fury. He had been fond of those war horses; he never expected them to suffer such heavy casualties. In his frenzy, Long Qie became even more terrifying.
With a sudden movement, he leaped from his horse as if a massive mountain crashed onto the ground, the instant he landed, his foot crushed a man’s skull!
Then, his axe swept across.
In an instant, two men were cleaved in half, severed into two pieces!
A kick was then unleashed.
At once, a man was sent flying, drifting sideways for seven or eight meters in midair before heavily falling to the ground, his chest caved in, obviously not surviving.
Another punch was thrown.
A man’s head simply exploded!
In total, in just a moment’s time, these dozen men were all slain by Long Qie!
As formidable as a War God!
However, at this moment, a war horse gave a mournful whinny and collapsed with a thud.
Its eyes looked helplessly at its master, as if to say it had done its best...
This army, trained with Hozon’s painstaking efforts, was indeed very powerful; every member possessed a spirit fearless of death.
At the same time, Ten Killings and those elites were also crazily battling these legendary members. Sky Net only had a few dozen men, whereas the legendary side had a total of three hundred.
But in the fight between Sky Net and the legends, they didn’t fall behind at all, even gaining the upper hand thanks to the presence of Long Qie and Ten Killings!
Nevertheless, the casualties on Sky Net’s side were quite heavy. Ten Killings almost all had injuries, and several of the Sky Net elites had already died!
"Hozon has such ruthless tactics!"
Xiao Zheng frowned upon seeing this.
He had realized that Hozon considered this batch of men expendable, merely using them to buy time.
It was precisely because of this group of men entangling Long Qie and the others, dividing Sky Net’s strength, that Hozon could leave so unhurriedly.
"Forget it, since Hozon has given me such a generous gift, I might as well accept it." Xiao Zheng shook his head, and then murderous intent suddenly burst forth from his eyes as he rushed toward the battlefield.
But at that moment, Xiao Zheng suddenly felt his hair stand on end! It was as if some fierce beast had its eyes on him, making his whole body chill.
An extreme sense of danger approached!
"Everyone be careful, it’s an ambush!"
Without a moment’s hesitation, Xiao Zheng roared.
The Evil God, having been through countless battles, had long since developed a keen instinct for danger.
Legends say that a true Martial Arts master, upon reaching a certain realm, can "sense danger and avoid it", perceiving an imminent threat ahead of time and evading accordingly.
In fact, this was not something out of the ordinary. Many animals in the animal kingdom can sense danger in advance, and humans, through arduous cultivation, can achieve the same effect.
No sooner had Xiao Zheng finished speaking than the ground started to violently shake.
Then, from the northeast, countless war horses appeared, each ridden by a Death Soldier with a cold gaze.
Riding those war horses, high above, they charged like a torrential surge. Their battle sabers, under the sunlight, shone with bursts of cold light!
