After receiving the prompt from Erzhenwu, Old Lan did not hesitate to choose to attack the city... Soon, both the Qibi Rizhe and the several famous magic crystal warriors were drawn into the battle space.

Upon seeing this unique space specifically designed for siege warfare for the first time, many reincarnators and magic crystal warriors exclaimed in amazement. Who would have thought that such a wondrous thing existed in the real world?

"Look, there's someone over there!" one of the reincarnators pointed to the opposite side.

Everyone looked over.

"That person must be the one destined to reincarnate, right?" Another powerful magic crystal warrior's skin rapidly turned to stone. He was actually a rock-elemental user.

"I think this guy is nothing special. You guys wait a moment, I'll go and meet him first!" One of the reincarnators rushed out first.

He was confident in his superior combat strength and completely disregarded the other reincarnators. He believed he could wipe out the three squads that had been destroyed earlier as well.

In that case, the opponent's combat strength is at most on par with our own.

Therefore, he was determined to win this siege, and he was the first to jump out because he was afraid that someone else would kill the enemy and seize the City Lord's Crest first.

Li Wei was initially startled by the large number of enemies on the other side.

He's certainly skilled, but he can't handle so many people at once. Fortunately, Li Wei has his own experience with melee combat.

Moreover, the enemy didn't swarm at once; only one reincarnator rushed out.

That makes things much easier!

"Level 3?"

Li Wei didn't take out the Black Spiral Sword, but instead unleashed a Cloud Piercing Palm strike from a distance. The original palm force was now mixed with raging flames, like a burning train surging forward.

The other reincarnator was startled and tried to dodge, but it was too late. The opponent was a level 1 and level 2, much stronger than he had been, and he had no chance to resist. He was blasted away by a single palm strike and fell dozens of meters away.

Wow!

With just one move, he silenced his opponents. Several challengers who had initially refused to believe in his power tried to rush out, but they all retreated.

The force of that palm strike was so powerful that you could feel its immense strength and the raging flames on it; anyone who was struck by it would definitely suffer a bad outcome.

"Let's all attack together and wipe him out!"

Someone shouted, and several more people rushed out. Surprisingly, most of them chose to remain still. The third brother, mixed in with the crowd, sighed, "None of these bastards are idiots."

The problem is, if they don't attack together, they'll still lose in the end.

The group of people who rushed forward—the Ming Reincarnators and the Ming Demon Crystal Warriors—couldn't care about anything else at this moment, and each unleashed their strongest attack methods to kill Li Wei.

But the result was still just as cruel.

Li Wei unleashed seven palm strikes, sending the seven men flying backward. Some of the weaker fighters coughed up blood in mid-air before crashing to the ground and falling still.

Everyone else was stunned!

What kind of combat power is this? It can kill anyone with a single palm strike. Soon, those reincarnators with combat power below level 1 began to feel fear, and their previously strong momentum weakened considerably.

"Not good!"

The third brother understood that this was a critical moment. If they were intimidated by the enemy's momentum, there was no point in continuing the siege; they would be doomed to lose.

"Big brother, second brother, let's go!" The third brother was going all out. At this moment, they had to turn the tide. No matter who it was, as long as they could withstand even one blow from the opponent, the rabble behind them would dare to join the attack.

After the three brothers stepped forward, they launched a three-pronged attack on Li Wei.

The eldest brother, wielding two guns, fired continuously, while the second brother, like a mad bull, strode straight towards Li Wei.

As for the third brother, he waved his hand, and a Summon Skeleton rose from the ground, wielding a sharp Sharp Axe and lunging forward. He also took out a stack of yellow talismans. While chanting incantations, he flicked his hand, and a fire talisman shot out.

Seeing this, Li Wei's arrogance vanished. He could sense that the most dangerous of these attacks wasn't the fire talisman or the skeleton, but actually the second brother.

The opponent was probably not a reincarnator, but his combat power was comparable to that of a mortar-level being. At this moment, a large amount of bony shell emerged from the surface of his body, like a suit of armor covering his entire body.

If you were hit directly, you would surely be smashed to pieces.

This time, Li Wei took out the Black Spiral Sword. First, he slashed at the flying fire talisman with a sword aura, and then he burst out with a burst of energy that went straight for the second brother.

"Second brother, danger! Get out of the way!" the third brother shouted, but it was too late.

Li Wei's sword energy was already fierce, especially when he used the exquisite sword techniques from the Upper Clear Sword Marrow. He brought the power to its limit, and the accompanying fire damage exploded into a fireball three or four meters high when it hit the second brother.

Boom!

The ground trembled three times, and the scorching heat wave made the crowd dozens of meters away stagger. Looking at the second brother, half of his body had disappeared. His wounds and internal organs had been cut open and burned by the flames, yet not a single drop of blood had flowed.

"Second brother, I swear I'll avenge you!" the eldest brother, wielding two guns, roared, his eyes wide. He pointed the gun at the muzzle and pulled the trigger.

However, what happened next almost made him swallow his tongue.

"Visual Release!"

Li Wei wasn't afraid of bullets, but if the opponent's shooting accuracy was very high, that would be a different story.

Every shot he fired was aimed directly at his vital points, and because of the entanglement with the Summon Skeleton, he had no time to dodge. He simply used the Black Spiral Sword in his hand to casually block, instantly deflecting more than a dozen bullets.

Seeing that his weapon was ineffective, the leader was filled with grief and indignation, but he was also afraid of Li Wei.

The third brother remained silent, simply controlling the skeleton to keep attacking, while the fire talisman in his hand never stopped. But the result only made him more and more alarmed.

No, it's not working at all!

Both the skeletons and the fire talismans were completely blocked by the opponent's almost abnormal reaction speed.

That kind of physical reaction speed could even deflect bullets, let alone fire talismans, which are much slower. But the third brother still had one last move to make.

He bought it from a veteran in Shadow Street; it was a one-time use scroll, easy to use, that could unleash a powerful spell, "Meteorite Spell," to attack the enemy.

During a lull in the attack, he secretly took out the scroll, waited for the right moment, and then suddenly unfurled and threw it out.

The scroll transformed into a streak of light that shot straight into the sky. After a long while, a meteor fell from the sky, its speed increasing rapidly. It was actually a meteorite from outer space, its target being Li Wei's location.

"You bastard, go to hell!"

The third brother shouted with a ferocious expression. Of course, he did not withdraw his Summon Skeleton; he wanted to use the skeletons to restrain the opponent.

The meteorite fell at an extremely fast speed, reaching Li Wei's head in the blink of an eye. Only then did he realize the meteorite's power; the immense pressure caused his dantian to tremble violently.

Knowing the meteorite was powerful, Li Wei instantly unleashed all his potential. The inner core in his dantian began to spin, shooting out bursts of true energy. The true energy condensed on the Black Spiral Sword, creating a giant sword light that resembled a heaven-defying sword. It then shot out and slammed into the meteorite.

The blinding light from the collision caused everyone's vision to go black. They felt the entire battle space tremble violently, and some even collapsed to the ground.

When they could see again, they were stunned by what they saw.

The once lush green grass on the ground was now mostly withered and destroyed, as if scorched by a raging fire, and burning meteorite fragments were scattered everywhere. It looked like a battlefield where a fierce battle had just taken place.

The Summon Skeleton had long since vanished. Keen-eyed observers noticed some small black bone fragments on the ground; their texture and color suggested they belonged to the skeleton.

"Where is that reincarnator?"

Someone exclaimed in surprise, but when he looked back at the area, he saw a figure standing there, exactly where he had been before. Who else could it be but Li Wei?

The third brother was completely dumbfounded; even his strongest killing move had failed.

It's over!

It's completely over. No matter what kind of attack it was, the opponent was able to neutralize it one by one. This last move, the Meteorite Spell, was originally thought to blast the opponent into dust, but the final result was like this.

The reincarnators and magic crystal warriors behind him probably had no intention of fighting anymore. After all, it was their lives at stake, and once lost, they could never get them back. Sure enough, soon some reincarnators summoned the Yellow Paper and chose to admit defeat.

During the siege of Sand City, either side can choose to concede in the battle space, but they need the other side's consent to leave the space.

Will that powerful figure agree?

Soon, some reincarnators and their magic crystal warriors were extracted from the battle space, clearly indicating that Li Wei had agreed. This led to even more reincarnators choosing to concede defeat.

The battle just now completely extinguished their courage. Perhaps, if they attacked together, they could defeat their opponent, but there is no doubt that many of them would lose their lives.

Nobody wants to be the unlucky one. Rather than letting someone else benefit, it's better to withdraw early and make a comeback if the opportunity arises.

Soon, everyone in the combat space left, leaving only the third brother and the eldest brother.

"What, why aren't you running?" Li Wei let out a long breath, looking at the two men. He had just been pushed to the brink of exhaustion, having used up all his true energy to break the Meteorite Spell. Fortunately, the heaven-defying sword energy successfully shattered the meteorite, but Li Wei no longer had the strength to fight.

Fortunately, this move intimidated everyone; otherwise, if they had swarmed him, Li Wei would have been doomed. That's why he agreed to their surrender.

Now, thanks to the existence of the Qi Sea Inner Core, Li Wei has recovered some of his true energy, and he will not let the remaining two people off so easily.
