Chapter 371 Great Battle! Great Battle!
After Lu Hao drove the two ninth-rank cultivators out of the passage, he found that there were two more ninth-rank cultivators on the other side. It seemed that these two had been guarding the gate. In other words, there were a total of 16 ninth-rank cultivators this time, which was more than a ratio of 1:1.5. This was after Lu Hao killed one of them. The remaining fifteen were eight underground city lords, three ninth-rank demon beasts, and four ninth-rank demon plants. After leaving the passage, all the human grandmasters led the battlefield outside, since there would be seven or eight more ninth-rank cultivators coming out.
One ninth-rank Grandmaster was left to guard the passage, while nine ninth-rank masters dealt with the fifteen ninth-rank masters on the other side.
However, the problem is not too big now. After all, humans have all been promoted to the ninth rank through one great battle after another, so they can remain undefeated even when fighting two opponents at once.
Lu Hao didn't rush to make a move. After all, he had just killed a ninth-rank expert, and even his ultimate move needed time to recover. Although no absolute masters appeared in this battle, they would definitely be watching closely. So it wasn't time to reveal his strength yet. He could only secretly help Lu Hao keep an eye on the human grandmasters who were coming out of the passage. One eighth-rank expert was missing, and three seventh-rank experts were missing. It seemed that they had been killed inside the passage. Lu Hao couldn't do anything about it and could only sigh helplessly. After all, his spiritual power couldn't penetrate the passage. Otherwise, with his secret help, they might not have died. While watching the situation on the field and making minor adjustments as needed, Lu Hao fought against the two ninth-rank experts opposite him.
The Tea Kings on the opposite side felt despair. They launched an attack on the human martial artist from the energy channel, but after attacking for so long, they hadn't caused any damage at all. Their attacks were easily neutralized, and the opponent didn't take them seriously at all, as if their attacks were like children fighting. This instilled a lot of fear in the Tea Kings. After all, they couldn't inflict any damage on the opponent, and they had seen that this human martial artist had killed a ninth-grade demon beast first, which meant that this human martial artist not only had strong defense but also strong attack power. Why wasn't he attacking them now? What was he waiting for?
The ninth-grade tea tree didn't think that much. The intelligence of demonic plants is relatively simple. Even at the ninth grade, it didn't increase much. The person from the forbidden zone had said that as long as you could defeat the resurrected martial artist who came this time, you could let it enter the forbidden zone and then break through to a higher level. This was obviously a pie in the sky set by the forbidden zone, but the tea tree was still enjoying it. So now the tea tree was still attacking Lu Hao with all its might. The tea king didn't believe what the forbidden zone said at all. He was forced to come this time. After all, with the true king watching, he had no choice but to fight. But now his heart was filled with despair. Could this human martial artist opposite him be a king in disguise? Otherwise, why was his attack not moving at all?
The Tea King was unaware that he had stumbled upon the truth by accident.
The battle continued. The fight between high-level warriors was impossible to determine a winner in one fell swoop. They were all competing to see who would give up first and who would consume more mental energy. With Lu Hao secretly helping them, there were many injuries among the humans, but no one was seriously injured or killed. Whenever the cave warriors were about to seriously injure or kill the human warriors, an unexpected event would occur, causing the human warriors to become stronger and stronger as they fought.
Half an hour later, a man in military uniform stood at the entrance of the underground passage, looking sternly at the group and coldly shouting, "Once you enter, you are not allowed to come out! You are not allowed to leave the underground passage for 24 hours. Anyone who steps out of the passage, regardless of who they are, will be killed on sight!"
Fang Ping and his group pretended not to hear and stepped directly into the passage.
Inside the underground passage.
The once crystal-clear energy channel is now stained with blood, stretching for a thousand meters.
Most of the blood was from underground martial artists, but there was also blood from human martial artists. Fang Ping even saw a piece of golden bone from a human martial artist. After a while, Wang Jinyang said in a slightly hoarse voice, "Help me collect the remains—"
"What other remains are there?" Li Hansong asked bitterly.
After collecting the corpses, the group analyzed the current situation. Humans still held the advantage; otherwise, they wouldn't have driven the underground warriors out of the passage. Once outside the energy channel, they saw only ruins left. Several Grandmasters from Tiannan City were guarding the passage, including Li Deyong, a ninth-rank Grandmaster. After all, hundreds of Grandmasters had entered; what if the underground forces destroyed the passage and left them all here? Seeing Fang Ping and the others, Minister Wang cursed under his breath and quickly said, "The fighting is still going on ahead! You're not allowed to run around! Stay here—no, retreat to the rear!"
Just then, Nan Yunyue, who hadn't exerted her strength until now, also unleashed it. She was originally a top-tier ninth-rank cultivator, so dealing with ordinary ninth-rank cultivators was not a problem for her. She had just been trying to wear down her opponent's condition, but now that the opponent's condition had deteriorated considerably, she was about to unleash her power. After all, even a junior like Lu Hao had killed a ninth-rank cultivator right away, so how could she, as the head of a department, fall behind?
"Die, you bastard!" Nan Yunyue unleashed a burst of power, slashing at a ninth-grade demonic beast. "Roar!"
A heart-wrenching scream rang out. Nan Yunyue, covered in golden blood, held a short sword and with one stroke severed the head of an enormous rat-like monster.
The giant monster with its head severed in mid-air was not dead.
The spiritual energy, a mixture of the real and the illusory, is condensing and taking shape, as if the death of the physical body is nothing, and the spiritual energy is coalescing into a new physical body.
However, the next moment, a spear shadow shot towards the distant spiritual energy of the demonic beast. Zhang Weiyu swung his spear, and the spear light intertwined with the spiritual energy of the demonic beast, with explosions ringing out continuously.
Taking this opportunity, Nan Yunyue shouted again, and the short sword flew out of her hand, causing the void to tremble as it slashed into the spiritual energy cluster.
boom!
At that moment, an explosion of unimaginable deafness rang out!
Another ninth-grade demon beast has been killed!
Seeing this, Lu Hao stopped slacking off and unleashed a slash at the still-attacking tea tree. Four hundred thousand units of his life force instantly struck the tea tree, but its defenses were completely ineffective. The life force blade instantly cleaved the tea tree in two. The tea tree's spiritual power surged, trying to absorb life essence to recover, but how could Lu Hao allow it to consume its own life essence? His spiritual power instantly pressed down, and his supreme spiritual power instantly erased the tea tree's spiritual power.
Lu Hao collected the corpse of the giant tea tree with one hand, which still contained hundreds of pounds of warm life essence. At the same time, he slashed at the attacking Tea King with his sword, knocking the Tea King back.
The Tea King was enraged to see his guardian's life essence, accumulated over many years, fall into Lu Hao's hands. After all, that life essence was his life's savings, meant for his future breakthrough to the King realm. Now that Lu Hao had obtained it, he disregarded whether Lu Hao was a hidden King or not and launched a desperate attack on him.
