Getting Stronger By Fighting-Chapter 630 - 628: Nine Heavens Mysterious Fire Formation_1
But precisely because Wang Zhan had thrown his Deep Fire Blade, he was temporarily without a weapon, and the Thousand Illusion Beasts seized this opportunity, swiftly advancing towards him.
"Brother Wang?"
Luo Xue practically roared just as the Thousand Illusion Beasts's fist landed on Wang Zhan. What followed puzzled everyone: Wang Zhan wasn't sent flying. Instead, streaks of white light appeared around him, and subsequently, silver-white dragons emerged from thin air, sweeping across the entire battlefield.
The Thousand Illusion Beasts, seemingly unprepared for this sudden development, immediately reacted and started countering these silver dragons!
"Damn it, that kid's gear is strange!"
The Thousand Illusion Beasts bellowed in rage, waves of energy fluctuations emerging between its hands once again. "Regardless of how many trump cards you have, kiddo, I'll make you stay here forever!"
The Thousand Illusion Beasts was extremely confident, not out of arrogance but because its own power was overwhelmingly superior to Wang Zhan's. So why should it worry about Wang Zhan's so-called trump cards?
Wang Zhan, however, was frowning slightly. He knew that the silver dragons just now were the defensive measures formed by the Heavenly Dragon Armor. But the Heavenly Dragon Armor could only enhance his defense slightly. Utilizing these silver dragons for attacks wasn't an easy task. Moreover, the Thousand Illusion Beasts in front of him was a level 2 demonic beast. How could regular attacks compete with it?
But he had no time to think. In the blink of an eye, the Thousand Illusion Beasts was already in front of him. Wang Zhan was once again entangled with the Thousand Illusion Beasts. After hundreds of exchanges, Wang Zhan was gradually losing ground.
But Wang Zhan still didn't retrieve his Deep Fire Blade. After all, if he did, both Xiang Tian and Luo Xue would be put in danger.
Even though Xiang Tian and Luo Xue couldn't use the Deep Fire Blade, Wang Zhan currently had a mental connection with it. He could use the Deep Fire Blade to temporarily block the other demonic beast's attack.
As the roaring sounds intensified, Wang Zhan was gradually being defeated.
The Deep Fire Blade, too, was gradually becoming unable to withstand the demonic beast's attacks.
Xiang Tian and Luo Xue retreated repeatedly, and for a moment, they didn't know what to do.
Not far away, Luo Tianhong stood with his arms crossed, quietly watching as if it were a show.
Soon, Luo Xue quickly ran to Luo Tianhong's side and said, "Can you think of a way to help? Don't let Brother Wang fight alone. These are two level 2 demonic beasts; Brother Wang is definitely not their match. Do you want to watch Brother Wang die here?"
Luo Tianhong shrugged. "Didn't I already give him a chance? As long as he said he was willing to believe I'm his teammate and wouldn't continue to exclude me, I would help him deal with these two demonic beasts. But even facing death, he didn't say those words. What can I do? Should I help for free, only to be scolded afterward?"
"So, tell me, is there a problem with your brain or mine? Instead of trying to persuade me, you should go have a good talk with your Brother Wang."
Luo Xue's expression was extremely unsightly, but he knew Wang Zhan's personality well.
Since Wang Zhan stubbornly refused to speak, even if Luo Xue intervened, Wang Zhan wouldn't give him any face.
"Fine, if he's unwilling to help, then we shouldn't force him," Xiang Tian said, glancing at Luo Tianhong before slightly clenching his fists, the words on the tip of his tongue left unsaid.
He had indeed pleaded with Luo Tianhong multiple times before, but that was for Wang Zhan's sake. Now that Wang Zhan was in grave danger, Luo Tianhong showed no intention of helping. In Xiang Tian's eyes, Luo Tianhong was merely treating them as playthings, a truly unbearable feeling.
Since he doesn't consider us teammates, why should we awkwardly insist on being on the same side?
Luo Tianhong remained silent, his gaze fixed on the barrier. He was keenly aware of how much time remained before the barrier would close. Entering the ruins by then would not be an easy matter.
However, for some unknown reason, he suddenly felt an urge to abandon everything—all because of Wang Zhan.
After all, even if Wang Zhan doesn't consider me a teammate, I can't just watch him die here, can I?
Within the battle, Wang Zhan was being steadily pushed back; he was clearly no match for the Thousand Illusion Beasts. Moreover, the other demonic beast was about to shatter the Deep Fire Blade.
Seeing this, Xiang Tian clenched his fists and, disregarding his own injuries, swiftly charged towards Wang Zhan. Luo Xue hesitated for a moment, then followed Xiang Tian's intentions and did the same.
Clearly, both were prepared to stand by Wang Zhan; even if they were to die, the three of them would die together.
Wang Zhan noticed their actions, glared at them, and shouted, "I can still hold it off for a while longer! You two, leave quickly! Don't come here and die needlessly!"
"As long as you leave, I have ways to escape this battle!"
But how could Xiang Tian and Luo Xue possibly believe such words?
The Thousand Illusion Beasts nearby reacted similarly. Upon hearing Wang Zhan's arrogant words, it suddenly burst into loud laughter. "Kid, aren't you afraid your tongue will get cut by the strong wind? If your own strength is lacking, don't waste your breath here. It would be better to kneel and surrender early. Perhaps, seeing your deep brotherly affection, I might let the other two go."
"But if you continue to resist, I will eventually make all three of you wish for death but be unable to attain it, and long for life but find it beyond reach."
The demonic beast not far away also noticed the situation here. It stopped striking the Deep Fire Blade and instead rapidly approached the Thousand Illusion Beasts. Their meeting made the situation even worse.
Xiang Tian and Luo Xue had already taken positions on either side of Wang Zhan.
Wang Zhan, however, waved his hand towards the Deep Fire Blade. In the next second, the Deep Fire Blade swiftly flew into his grasp.
Wang Zhan's gaze changed instantly. His entire body trembled as he gripped the Deep Fire Blade. The next moment, the Deep Fire Blade shot from his hand, hovering above the heads of the Thousand Illusion Beasts and the other demonic beast.
This sudden development caught everyone off guard.
Before the Thousand Illusion Beasts and the other demonic beast could react, streaks of Fire Light suddenly appeared around the Deep Fire Blade. In an instant, it was hovering beside the two level 2 demonic beasts. As those streaks of Fire Light appeared, a massive curtain of fire spontaneously arose.
"Damn it, what is this thing?"
The Thousand Illusion Beasts glanced at the demonic beast beside it, then gritted its teeth and said, "I didn't expect this kid to have such strange tricks!"
"Stop talking nonsense. Let's break through this encirclement first," the other demonic beast said coldly.
"Alright."
Although the two demonic beasts couldn't discern the peculiarity of the Deep Fire Blade, in their eyes, Wang Zhan's strength was insufficient. So what if he pulled off some flashy moves? In the face of absolute power, all of it was trash!
"I should thank you," Wang Zhan said, slowly floating into mid-air, a cold smile on his lips. "If it weren't for you, I might not have been able to comprehend the true essence of the Deep Fire Blade yet!"
Then, he formed a hand seal. Instantly, Fire Light flared brightly again on the Deep Fire Blade, and pillars of fire erupted around the Thousand Illusion Beasts and the other demonic beast. From mid-air, massive fireballs also began to rain down rapidly upon the two demonic beasts!
Xiang Tian and Luo Xue exchanged astonished glances.
Although they couldn't understand what was happening, they could feel the formidable power contained within it.
"Nine Heavens Mysterious Fire Formation!"
Following Wang Zhan's sharp cry, the fireballs in the sky rained down fiercely upon the Thousand Illusion Beasts and the other demonic beast.
Each fireball contained immense energy, so potent that even the Thousand Illusion Beasts and the other demonic beast dared not underestimate them.
The most terrifying aspect was the sheer number of these fireballs. Looking up, the sky was densely packed with these strange fiery orbs. Most importantly, they couldn't even break through their surroundings.
Several massive curtains of fire had formed around the two demonic beasts, completely trapping them.
The Thousand Illusion Beasts tried several times but failed to break through these fire curtains.
The other demonic beast glanced at the Thousand Illusion Beasts, then gritted its teeth and said, "Who exactly is this guy? How can he possess such powerful attack means? No! This must be formation techniques!"
There is a fundamental difference between attack means and formation techniques. Attack means might not cause widespread damage, but formation techniques are versatile and aren't restricted by cultivation level.
However, they had never imagined that Wang Zhan, merely a Martial King, could actually employ formation techniques.
The Thousand Illusion Beasts shot a cold glance at the demonic beast beside it and said, "Less nonsense. Figure out how to get out of here first. Haven't you felt the surrounding temperature rising? And those fireballs are getting closer. These damned things contain extremely powerful energy. If we get hit, even we will be severely injured."
The other demonic beast nodded, just as the fireballs from the sky began to descend upon them.
Before the Thousand Illusion Beasts could react, it felt a sharp pain in its chest. Then, it saw another fireball slam violently into its chest.
The next second, the Thousand Illusion Beasts was sent flying backward.
Clearly, even the Thousand Illusion Beasts and the other level 2 demonic beast could not break through the formation Wang Zhan had deployed.
Not far away, Luo Tianhong, still with his arms crossed, pursed his lips into a smile, a bright glint flashing in his eyes. I didn't expect Wang Zhan to have such a trump card. I truly underestimated him.
