Chapter 902 - 900: Reinforcements Arrive
One Elder after another appeared in a neat line.Indeed, it gave people a great sense of oppression.
Standing at the forefront, the Great Elder looked coldly at Dong Tianlei not far away, clearly ignoring Wang Zhan. He spoke word by word, "As the master of Luoxing Mountain, failing to make progress and even collaborating with outsiders to attack our Luoxing Mountain’s people, what should be your crime?"
Dong Tianlei frowned slightly. After clenching his fist, he spoke slowly through gritted teeth, "All of this was forced upon me."
"I ask the Great Elder to consider carefully, over the years, if it weren’t for you always being above me and dictating matters to me, how could I have come to this point today?"
"Therefore, my actions are merely out of desperation."
"Of course, you naturally bear some responsibility in this."
Upon hearing this, the Great Elder’s face instantly darkened significantly.
Before he could speak, a man beside him started speaking directly, "Great Elder, why bother with this traitor’s nonsense? We might as well reveal our true skills under our hands and swiftly deal with this traitor, so that the people within Luoxing Mountain understand the consequences of betraying us."
Several Elders standing to the side also nodded in agreement.
Dong Tianlei gritted his teeth hard, having dedicated many years to Luoxing Mountain without imagining he would end up in such a situation.
Dong Tianlei’s gaze fell on Wang Zhan. He then spoke, "Brother Wang, it seems they’re not planning to let us leave. Since that’s the case, shall we fight them side by side?"
"Hmm..."
Wang Zhan pondered for a moment. Before he could speak, the Great Elder spoke again, "Young man."
"This is an internal matter of our Luoxing Mountain. It’s apparent your prowess is quite decent; among the younger generation, you have few rivals. Such talent is truly enviable, but I advise you not to interfere in Luoxing Mountain’s affairs lest you invite trouble."
"After all, many geniuses have fallen by our hands."
Wang Zhan twisted his neck slightly and replied casually, "I’m truly sorry, but before arriving here, I had already agreed with Dong Tianlei that no matter how chaotic things get, I would stand by Dong Tianlei unconditionally. So, it’s best you don’t waste your breath on me any longer. Let’s proceed with the action and let me see what capabilities you so-called Elders truly possess."
Upon hearing this, the faces of the several Elders all turned significantly dark.
Over the years, although they hadn’t shown themselves within Luoxing Mountain, their names had always echoed within it.
Everyone knows Elders are untouchable existences.
Yet unexpectedly, they were now looked down upon by Wang Zhan in such a manner?
In an instant, anger drove an Elder to strike.
In the blink of an eye, the person was already before Wang Zhan.
Wang Zhan slightly squinted his eyes, swiftly raised the Great Void Divine Sword in his hand, and immediately heard the voice of the Sword Spirit speak within his mind, "This fellow’s strength shouldn’t be underestimated; he’s entered the peak of the Star System level. Presumably, he’s preparing to break through to the Star River level soon, so it’s better to be careful."
Wang Zhan nodded, but since he was already here, regardless of the opponent’s skills, one must clash to truly understand.
Moreover, having no retreat and with Feng Tianci backing him, what is there to worry about?
In an instant, Wang Zhan raised the Great Void Divine Sword in his hand and engaged with the Elder.
In the brief moment of contact, ripples instantly spread out.
Wang Zhan and the Elder both retreated several steps in unison.
But it’s evident that neither suffered a fatal blow.
The Great Elder frowned slightly, touching his chin before muttering to himself, "Didn’t expect, I underestimated this young man’s strength; he can contend with the Third Elder for this long. Possibly, he has also entered among the Star System level experts?"
The Elders beside him clearly had no intention to assist.
Upon hearing the Great Elder’s words, one of them spoke disdainfully, "Even if he’s entered the Star System level, so what? The Third Elder reached this level several decades ago, and over the years he’s touched the threshold for breaking through the Star System level. His strength is naturally unmatched by this young man."
"Hence, we needn’t worry; it won’t be long before there’s a clear victor."
All the Elders nodded in agreement.
And Wang Zhan beside them once again engaged with the Third Elder.
Clearly, the two have entered a state where they won’t rest until one falls.
For Wang Zhan, this isn’t a bad thing. After all, he has time to entangle the Third Elder, which might ultimately bring certain advantages.
Ultimately, when the grand battle begins, the pressure on him and Dong Tianlei will lessen significantly.
One should know, a single Third Elder can turn the tides of battle.
In the blink of an eye, Wang Zhan soared into the sky.
Immediately, he raised the Great Void Divine Sword in his hand and slashed fiercely at the Third Elder.
"Take this strike of mine!"
A fiery red light roared down.
The Third Elder swiftly raised his hands, shielding his chest, and then met the fire light.
With a loud bang, the Third Elder stepped back half a step.
While Wang Zhan stood in mid-air, his expression unchanged.
Seeing this scene, everyone’s expressions slightly changed.
No one expected that with the Third Elder’s strength, he would still be at a disadvantage.
Even the First Elder next to him slightly clenched his fists, and then he rose into the air and shouted sternly, "We must attack together. Don’t waste any more time. There’s something strange about this boy!"
As he spoke, the other elders were already heading toward Wang Zhan.
Observing from the sidelines, Dong Tianlei wasted no time, quickly reaching Wang Zhan’s side. After glancing at Wang Zhan, he said, "It seems these guys are driven into a corner, but the two of us alone might not be their match. If worst comes to worst, we should retreat first. What do you think?"
As long as the green hills remain, there’s no fear of running out of firewood.
But Wang Zhan didn’t think so.
A grin twisted Wang Zhan’s lips as he clutched the Great Void Divine Sword tighter. He was always a combative person, and facing such formidable foes only fueled his competitive spirit.
Since this was the case, how could he retreat easily?
Immediately, Wang Zhan charged at the First Elder, "This old dog has forgotten what realm the Star River level consists of. I’ll hold him off first. You tangle with the other elders for a while. It won’t be long before I deal with this old dog and then come support you."
Dong Tianlei gritted his teeth. Though he had little faith in Wang Zhan’s words, he had no choice but to do so now.
While his strength was far inferior to the elders present, delaying them wasn’t an impossible task.
Dong Tianlei slowly raised his hands, shouting, "Zhou Tian Luo Xing Mountain Map."
In the next second, several elders were enveloped within it.
Though the Zhou Tian Luo Xing Mountain Map doesn’t offer great offensive power, it boasts extremely formidable defensive capabilities. If one could trap people within it, then surely it would be difficult for those inside to break free.
Even if there was a definite disparity in strength among them, breaking the control of the Zhou Tian Luo Xing Mountain Map was an incredibly challenging matter.
Meanwhile, Wang Zhan had already reached the First Elder.
With arms behind his back, Wang Zhan stood calmly. After glancing at the First Elder, a disdainful smile spread across his lips. He then said indifferently, "I thought there were no noteworthy figures in your Luoxing Mountain. Now it seems a bit interesting."
"Just the two of us can spar a bit. Through our battle, I can regain some combat insights, which may benefit my cultivation..."
The First Elder’s mouth twitched.
If it were anyone else, they’d probably be thinking about how to escape by now.
But never did he imagine Wang Zhan would disregard all that.
He even seemed excited.
This was clearly a great humiliation to him.
The First Elder clenched his fists tightly, and then, after casting a cold glance at Wang Zhan, he gritted his teeth and said, "Arrogant, ignorant youngster, you will pay dearly for your thoughts."
"Even if a deity were to arrive today, they couldn’t take you away!"
Heh...
A contemptuous smile appeared on Wang Zhan’s lips. After glancing at the distant Fire Qilin, he spoke slowly, "Little thing, what are you standing there for? Hurry over and fight alongside me. Without your help, taking down this old dog won’t be easy!"
The Fire Qilin, though slightly disgruntled, quickly stood before Wang Zhan.
He could sense the suppressive force the First Elder exuded.
Meanwhile, the First Elder slightly furrowed his brows. After curiously glancing at the Fire Qilin, he shook his head and said, "I never expected such a variant beast between heaven and earth would ally with humans. Truly a rare sight in ancient times."
"Old Man, I advise you not to waste time here."
Arms crossed, Wang Zhan said with a smile, "I know you want to drive a wedge between us, but unfortunately, the bond between us is unbreakable."
