The five hundred Iron Asuras and three thousand Hengzhou Army received the order, and immediately began to move swiftly forward to encircle the target.
Those Iron Asuras naturally had no issues, their eyes cold and filled with anger, charging towards Jiang Shi. However, the ordinary Hengzhou soldiers showed signs of fear. Although they were also moving forward, their pace was exceptionally slow, taking one step forward and then two steps back.
Some even crowded together in a complete mess.
Enraged, the middle-aged scholar unsheathed a sharp thin sword that instantly transformed into countless shattered light shadows, killing three people in an instant. He shouted sternly, "Anyone who dares to retreat will be killed without mercy. Quickly surround and kill him!"
The many Hengzhou soldiers were filled with terror and no longer dared to retreat. They gritted their teeth and charged rapidly forward.
Jiang Shi was originally in a frenzy, smashing the Black-haired Giant, making the opponent scream miserably and shatter countless bones. At this moment, he suddenly saw the many Iron Asuras and Hengzhou soldiers rushing towards him, and his eyes were burning even more fiercely with rage.
"Trying to besiege me? Today, I'll make sure none of you can leave!"
His aura was terrifying, his muscles bulging as he grabbed the body of the Black-haired Giant and charged forward swiftly, making loud thuds as he fiercely swung towards the five hundred Iron Asuras in front.
At this moment, the five-meter-tall body of the Black-haired Giant in his hand seemed to become a weapon, unbreakable.
Bam!
Upon arriving, the giant's body slammed into the front batch of Iron Asuras, unleashing unknown amounts of force. The front batch of Iron Asuras immediately spat blood wildly, with countless bones shattered, and their bodies fluttered around like kites in the wind.
Scarlet blood splattered everywhere.
"Oh my god, run!"
"Monster, what a monster!"
The crowd was in chaos, with all sorts of voices echoing around.
Jiang Shi appeared to be in a frenzy, grabbing the Black-haired Giant's body and smashing it towards the Iron Asuras ferociously. Originally, the Iron Asuras, clad in iron armor and engraved with array talismans, were mysterious and powerful, attempting to use their formation to encircle Jiang Shi, but soon they despairingly realized it was useless.
Bam, bam, bam, bam!
Jiang Shi smashed away aggressively, and groups of Iron Asuras spewed blood while flying horizontally, unable to keep up with Jiang Shi's speed.
At this moment.
In an area approximately two to three hundred meters away from the scene.
There were two figures standing quietly on an inconspicuous treetop, their faces filled with shock as they gazed in this direction from afar.
One figure was a large build, standing about 1.9 meters tall, with bulging muscles and skin of a dark golden hue, dressed in monk robes but appearing colder and fiercer than ordinary monks.
The other was a woman in a cyan dress, wearing a cyan mask, her exact age indiscernible, one could barely see her graceful and curvaceous figure.
"Incredible, truly incredible. I never thought Cyan Robe Tower had underestimated this person."
The woman in the cyan dress stared intently forward, her heart filled with profound shock. Suddenly, she smiled and looked at the monk beside her, saying, "Golden Buddha Child, aren't you willing to join this grand event? If you don't make a move soon, that Black-haired Giant might die at his hands."
"You don't need to provoke me, it won't work. This guy's strength probably exceeds the limits of a Martial Saint. Though not at the Blood Exchange level, it's definitely close."
The monk's voice was cold as he stared ahead.
"Blood Exchange?"
The cyan-dressed woman was startled, her eyes moving as she said, "It seems this guy really does have other secrets, otherwise how could his power exceed a Martial Saint's without collapsing."
"Secrets? Everyone has secrets. If your Cyan Robe Tower chases down every person's secrets like this, I fear you won't know how you'll meet your end."
Golden Buddha Child said coldly.
"You're right. However, although my Cyan Robe Tower can't pursue this person to the end, others can."
The woman in the cyan dress smiled slightly, saying, "The old monster from the Hengzhou Wang Clan has already learned the news and is heading this way. I believe he should be at the foot of the mountain by now."
"The old monster of Hengzhou Wang Clan?"
Golden Buddha Child's eyes narrowed.
"Yes, the Hengzhou Wang Clan lost so many Elders here, how could they just let it go? The old monster of their clan had made a move before but hadn't found him. Now that he has killed some of their experts, that old monster couldn't sit still."
The woman in the cyan dress smiled slightly, saying, "As for the Kunshan Long Family and the Longxi Zhang Family, they have also begun to make their moves. Whatever secret Jiang Shi holds, it depends on how these three families divide it."
"Cyan Robe Tower, indeed, never at peace."
Golden Buddha Child's tone was cold.
"You're too kind."
The woman in the cyan dress said with a smile.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang···
A series of dull thuds continuously erupted, sending the encircling Iron Asuras flying in all directions. In the hands of Jiang Shi, the Black-haired Giant spewed blood, screaming miserably.
Jiang Shi wanted to shatter the body of this Black-haired Giant. Unfortunately, the opponent possessed a mysterious aura, as fierce as a wolf or tiger. Even though it was scared into retreating into the giant's body, it firmly protected the body, causing Jiang Shi's power to be deflected multiple times.
Yet, even so, after a continuous barrage, the Black-haired Giant's bones were almost entirely fractured, and all its organs were displaced.
Seeing rows of Iron Asuras being smashed to death one after another, the Hengzhou Army that was charging forward finally felt fear, trembling uncontrollably, and began retreating rapidly without a second thought.
"Bastard!"
The middle-aged scholar was furious, gritting his teeth, trying to stop the retreating Hengzhou Army.
But once defeated, the troops scattered like a landslide; even with forced slayings, how many could he stop?
Ah!
Just as the Black-haired Giant screamed miserably, its body about to collapse, a repressive and obscure aura quickly surged from afar, pressing down like a giant stone on everyone's chest, leaving them breathless.
This aura moved extremely fast, seeming to sweep in like a fierce wind from the distance.
All the Jianghu figures turned pale, hastily retreating as they looked up.
Not far away.
Standing on the treetop, the Golden Buddha Child and the Cyan Robe Lady both shuddered, swiftly turning back.
"It's here, the ancestor of the Hengzhou Wang Family arrived so quickly."
The Cyan Robe Lady exclaimed.
She had underestimated the opponent's speed!
She thought the opponent had only reached the foot of the mountain, but unexpectedly, they were already nearby.
Whoosh!
A gust of wind suddenly swept through the dense forest, howling piercingly, shaking massive trees, their branches and leaves rustling, swiftly oscillating.
As if influenced by some aura.
Then, a blurred silhouette darted out of the forest with incredible speed, looking cold as it rapidly approached.
This figure wore a black robe, with long silver hair and a silver beard, surrounded by a heavy stream of air, charging forward with a thunderous sound.
As they passed by the Golden Buddha Child and the Cyan Robe Lady, the elder's gaze was electric, coldly piercing into their souls, stirring them with a chill, and making their hairs stand on end.
Fortunately, the elder didn't pause, but continued at amazing speed, sprinting towards the forefront of the mountain stronghold.
Inside the stronghold.
Jiang Shi, who was frantically wielding the Black-haired Giant, immediately sensed the same intense and icy terrifying aura as everyone else, like countless steel blades stabbing into his body.
Moreover, he could distinctly feel this aura rushing straight at him.
In a critical moment, he took the Black-haired Giant and quickly used it as a shield.
But even so, he underestimated the arrival's speed.
The opponent's body moved unbelievably fast, stretching out a hand to rapidly reach through the gap under the Black-haired Giant's armpit, the withered fingers containing unimaginable strength, immediately landing on Jiang Shi.
Boom!
With an explosive sound, the air currents roared.
Jiang Shi's body was struck as if by lightning, almost flying backward on the spot, enduring an immense force, like a cannonball.
And that wasn't all.
After one strike, the elder's body flickered, moving as fast as lightning, pursuing Jiang Shi's body, and his hands moved like lightning, delivering continuous strikes all over Jiang Shi.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
The sound was explosive, deafening.
In the blink of an eye, it was hard to tell how many times he struck.
