Encirclement and Annihilation, Part One

"Kill? There are so many."

Prefect Zhao Yanting felt a pang of pity and wanted to say something, but after being glanced at by Yong Xiang, he paused and ultimately fell silent.

Zhang Rongfang squinted and gazed at the distant Great Cathedral.

The White Ten Sect and the Black Ten Sect share the same origin and appear to be native Western religious sects, but their true strength is unknown.

He also hoped to quell this force as soon as possible, so that he could peacefully devote himself to cultivation.

Now that the Secret Cache has been unlocked, he has a good grasp of the future.

Next, we just need to secretly capture some Spiritized Person to test whether the Eastern Sect's experiment is true.

Then one can honestly lie low for a long time and cultivate oneself.

"Preparation!"

At this moment, the voice of the officer and soldier leader could be faintly heard from behind.

Just then, First Squad people walked out from the crowd near the Great Cathedral.

They were dressed in white robes, with the White Cross Sect around their necks, and were speaking loudly, waving their arms, and were very emotional.

As they shouted, the surrounding crowd became even more agitated.

"Ounigye!" A furious roar rang out.

Suddenly, an old man standing at the head of the white-robed group roared loudly.

He wore Blue Crystal Headband, held Pure White Staff, and wore a white robe with gold roses, scriptures, stars, and cross patterns at the end.

"Kill!!!" This roar erupted simultaneously with his shout.

It was the short sword that Yong Xiang had raised high from her waist.

With a whoosh, white Signal Flare shot into the sky.

The white fireworks slowly unfolded, transforming into petals like White Lotus flowers, scattering and fading away.

Surrounded on three sides by government troops, the archers simultaneously released their bowstrings to unleash their rockets.

Whoosh! Rockets rained down from all directions, tracing arcs as they crashed into the church.

The flying red dots drew red lines in the air; some broke through windows, some stuck to doors, and many more landed on rooftops and walls.

As the Fire Oil splattered, the church gradually caught fire.

The gathered crowd screamed and scattered, trying to escape.

Those in white robes were also mixed in, charging towards the surrounding ranks of soldiers.

Clearly, they intended to use the crowd of civilians to attack the officers and soldiers.

"Shoot!" Yong Xiang swung her short sword again.

The Crossbow and musketeers from the rear stepped forward and formed a battle formation, blocking the way at the very front.

Amidst the hissing of gunfire, a relentless barrage of bullets and crossbow bolts, like a death storm, wantonly slaughtered the approaching civilians.

In an instant, people fell to the ground, like wheat being harvested, one by one they fell, blood splattering everywhere.

But at that moment, several figures holding round shields rose into the air from the crowd and rushed forward.

They lifted their black robes, revealing full-body black heavy armor underneath.

These men charged relentlessly, one after another, at an incredible speed, so much so that the Crossbow couldn't even aim and they vanished in the blink of an eye.

Seconds later, more than twenty figures rushed into the soldiers' ranks, wielding curved swords and giant swords that slashed wildly. Wherever they went, men and horses fell, and no one could stand against them.

"It's the Spirit Vein and Knight Warrior of the White Ten Sect. It's your turn!" Yong Xiang looked at the six Spirit Vein behind her.

Knowing they couldn't refuse, the six men had no choice but to charge towards these people.

"Daozi, please take good care of yourself!" Chen Han's last words reached Zhang Rongfang's ears.

"Han, I'm afraid I've failed the Grand Master's expectations."

Zhang Rongfang watched the figures of the group rush out, and his face suddenly darkened inexplicably.

He had tried to persuade Chen Han when he arrived, but the other party did not respond and remained silent.

Even those Spirit Vein belonging to the Great Dao Sect did not resist the Imperial Clan decree in the slightest.

If life and death were not in the hands of the Ling Ting Imperial Clan, who would be willing to lose all dignity and become someone's dog?

Boom! The six men charged forward to meet the attack, like six reefs, instantly blocking the first wave of the White Ten Sect's charge.

A series of violent, dull thuds exploded outwards.

Force clashed with force, weapon with weapon, shield with shield. Under the immense impact, the weaker parts of the weapons and shields immediately bore numerous scratches.

The tiny sparks flashed and disappeared in an instant.

Behind the six, the rest of the non- Spiritization Super Grade followed.

The two groups were locked in a fierce battle in the blink of an eye.

When Super Grade experts clashed, their speed and agility were so great that the surrounding soldiers had no way to intervene and could only wait and watch.

However, the strength of the White Ten Sect clearly exceeded Yong Xiang's expectations.

Among them, there were more than ten Super Grade experts. The Great Ling's side didn't have enough top-tier fighters.

Among them was an old man dressed Archbishop, whose cane moved like a phantom, and with each strike he could create a bloody hole in a Spirit Vein.

This person is at least a master of the Three Voids level of emptiness!

"Useless!" The anger that had just been extinguished in Yong Xiang's heart surged up again.

"All Super Grade, disperse and engage the enemy! We must annihilate the enemy here!"

She tossed aside the dagger and reached to her right.

"Here comes the knife!"

Two soldiers behind her carried a giant, two-and-a-half-meter-long Horse Slaying Blade and walked to her side.

Yong Xiang gripped the Horse Slaying Blade with one hand and lifted it upwards.

She lifted that enormous Horse Slaying Blade, which weighed at least several tens of kilograms, with ease using only one hand.

Whoosh! The blade flashed through the air at lightning speed, leaving a bright trail in its wake.

"I can't beat the Taijing Zi, yet this mere Western religious sect dares to be so arrogant!?"

Yong Xiang struck the center of her chest with lightning speed.

Hiss. A patch of dark red veins, like a tattoo, spread rapidly from the center of the chest to both sides.

A soft rustling sound emanated from her.

That's the tiny friction sound made by blood flowing at supersonic speed in blood vessels.

Yong Xiang's skin began to turn red, and the whites of her eyes quickly turned bright red, with countless blood vessels resembling worm threads converging in her pupils.

Bang!

In an instant, the ground trembled slightly, the grass beneath her feet exploded into a crater, and she disappeared from her spot, rushing headlong towards the Archbishop the White Ten Sect.

In an instant, a louder impact than any of the others exploded between the two.

The Archbishop froze on the spot, his body flying backward, actually forced to retreat rapidly by the force of the blade.

"The Great Completion Martial Classic. Ten Thousand Spirits Thirteen Limits!" Prefect Zhao Yanting couldn't help but gasp.

"Is this the Ten Thousand Spirits Thirteen Limits in the martial arts of the Ling Ting Imperial Clan?!" The Magistrate Niluofu, standing to the side, stared intently at Yong Xiang.

"All the martial arts in the world gather at the Snow Rainbow Pavilion, and the Great Completion Martial Classic is the ultimate masterpiece created by countless masters of the Snow Rainbow Pavilion, who have gathered countless martial arts and exhausted their wisdom," Zhao Yanting sighed.

"The Ten Thousand Spirits Thirteen Limits is the biggest difference between the Great Completion Martial Classic and ordinary martial arts."

The "Thirteen Limits" signifies that this Imperial Clan martial art has at least thirteen different Limit State to choose from. The princess's form is the "Ten Thousand Horses Blade Saber."

Zhang Rongfang "Ten Thousand Horses Blade," looked at Yong Xiang at this moment.

This princess certainly has the right to be proud.

She was already a top-tier martial artist with Three Voids Super Grade, and now, with the addition of the Great Completion Martial Classic, which is likely the strongest top-tier martial art in the world, she was able to unleash her Limit State.

It's incredibly powerful.

At this moment, they were completely dominating the White Ten Sect Archbishop.

The several-dozen-pound Horse Slaying Blade seemed weightless in his hands. Each move unleashed a speed that Zhang Rongfang could barely perceive.

"Alright, now that the princess has made her move, we can't just stand by and do nothing."

The Prefect said in a deep voice.

If you don't know martial arts, that's fine; you can find an excuse not to participate.

But if even the princess personally took part, it would be extremely disrespectful for them to remain here.

Immediately, the group each chose a direction, drew their weapons, and led the swordsmen and shieldmen behind them to rush forward and surround and kill.

There was no one left beside Zhang Rongfang.

He randomly picked a black-armored Knight Warrior covered in blood. The man was about to break through the encirclement, and several crossbow bolts were stuck in the gaps of his armor. He wondered which archer had done it.

Without using his newly acquired All Under Heaven Blade, Zhang Rongfang simply put on metal gloves, loosened his joints, and stepped forward, charging into the encirclement.

"Suma!!" The Black Armored Knight still had the strength to roar, his palm-width Silver Greatsword, two meters long, sweeping across from left to right.

The gust of wind whipped up by the sword blade sent dust and grass clippings flying everywhere.

The greatsword, sharp and stained with bright red blood, slashed with a slight arc towards Zhang Rongfang, who had suddenly appeared.

Hiss.

Zhang Rongfang stood still, his eyes rapidly scanning the attribute data of the other party.

'That's equivalent to about three applications of External Medicine.'

He looked up at the other person, his eyes devoid of emotion, only calm.

Stepping.

They missed each other.

In just one step, Zhang Rongfang rushed into the inside of the opponent's arm.

"Heavy Mountain".

Bang!

With a muffled thud, the Black Armored Knight was struck as if by lightning, staggering back several steps before finally regaining his footing.

But he had already left several deep footprints in the ground.

'So weak?' Zhang Rongfang frowned slightly; he had already restrained himself as much as possible, using only half his strength.

At this point, they had to reduce their strength again.

He glanced at the princess who was engaged in fierce fighting not far away, and his eyes flickered slightly.

'Looks like I can't use my Breaking Limit Skill if I need to stall for time.'

'Then let's have a proper fight using ordinary martial arts.'

He held his hands upright in front of him, adopting the starting stance of the Pure Great Dao Sect Yue Type Talisman.

"Kill!!" The Black Armored Knight roared again, charging forward with his greatsword vibrating strangely as he slashed down at Zhang Rongfang.

But before the sword could fall, the person in front of him had vanished.

With a whoosh, the giant sword suddenly turned again, following Zhang Rongfang had dodged to the left in mid -Shadow Follows Form air.

This change of tactics was completely unexpected.

The ability to change tactics in time under such a powerful slash clearly indicates the use of some kind of Breaking Limit Skill.

Unfortunately, the difference in their movement skills was too great.

There are also significant differences in physical condition between Super Grade and between External Medicine.

According to the assessment, Zhang Rongfang determined that the opponent's normal speed and strength were at most equivalent to the level of three times he had taken External Medicine.

Now, he has already External Medicine seven times. The two of them flashed with sword light again, and the giant sword passed in front of Zhang Rongfang but missed.

The Black Armored Knight grew increasingly enraged, spinning his greatsword in rapid succession, unleashing arcs of sword light of varying heights.

The silver sword light, combined with the high-speed swing, flung the blood on the blade away, some of it even landing on Zhang Rongfang's clothes.

Unfortunately, his physical attributes and martial arts skills were inferior, and his full-force bursts of energy only resulted in repeated empty strikes.

Zhang Rongfang cautiously dodged, not retaliating, but controlling the pace of the fight.

To avoid ending the battle too quickly.

After all, he is only a martial arts master who has just broken through the External Medicine realm. Even if he is very strong and can fight against opponents of higher levels.

To be able to fight a martial artist of this caliber is already quite impressive.

Therefore, what he is showing now is that he has extraordinary speed and agility, but he cannot make a move against his opponent.
