Chapter 504 You… … Me? (1/2)

GOR Chapter 504 You… … Me?

Fight his way through the formation of soldiers.

That was the decision that Chen Xiaolian made.

The only way to complete his quest was to break through the formation of soldiers.

In order to rush into Epang Palace’s main hall and stop the resurrection of Qin Shihuang, he must first deal with the BOSS, Bai Qi.

In order to deal with the BOSS Bai Qi, he must first break the Five Elements spell array in this area.

The way to break the spell array was… … to cut down the great tree located in the middle of the square.

Previously, Miao Yan had distracted Bai Qi while Chen Xiaolian was in charge of cutting down the tree. The way to break the tree was… … use Metal to break Wood.

The element Metal here was the bronze statues in the square. Additionally, he also needed the element Fire…

However, what was needed was not a literal fire, but… blood.

Chen Xiaolian’s mind quickly recalled the method to break the spell array.

At that very moment, the formation of Qin soldiers had begun moving.

With orderly footsteps, the formation of soldiers marched forward like ants. They slowly marched forward, putting pressure on Chen Xiaolian. Their pikes and swords were aimed at Chen Xiaolian and the crossbowmen were ready.

Facing such a sight would cause anyone to suffer from goose bumps.

However, Chen Xiaolian knew that they were bluffing.

He now held the Tiger Tally. Unless he attacked them first, these Qin soldiers would never attack him.

Chen Xiaolian sneered and slowly retreated until he was beside the bronze statues.

The Qin soldiers marched closer in order to put more pressure on him. The black Bai Qi was standing atop one of the railings on the platform above the stairs. His foot rested atop the railing pillar and the black coloured short sword was aimed at Chen Xiaolian.

“Return it to me!”

Chen Xiaolian harrumphed in reply.

Although the black Bai Qi’s voice contained a thick amount of killing intent, so much so that he found it hard to bear, Chen Xiaolian forced himself to endure the detrimental effects of the killing intent on him.

There was only one thought in his mind: As long as I do not make a move, he would definitely not make the first move!

Chen Xiaolian stood beneath one of the bronze statues and turned to look at the black Bai Qi. The corners of his lips curled and he pulled a face while facing the black Bai Qi.

Next, Chen Xiaolian quickly raised the stone spear in his hand and roared out loudly.

“Open!”

Golden light radiated outward.

The instantaneous burst of golden light caused a sword beam with a power that was infinitely close to Skyblade’s power to descend upon the base position of the bronze statue.

The moment the sword beam was unleashed, the black coloured Bai Qi, who was standing far away, immediately howled out.

His howl rose up to the sky and it seemed as though the entire square was trembling under the power of his howl.

As for the bronze statue, after its base position was cut off by the golden beam of light, Chen Xiaolian sent his palm forward viciously, slamming the bronze statue…

The bronze statue came crashing down on the distant, large tree.

At the same time, the formation of Qin soldiers made their move.

The moment Chen Xiaolian made an offensive move, the Qin soldiers responded with their own offensive.

Hundreds of pikes rose up and flew toward Chen Xiaolian. There were also countless arrows among them. As they arced into the air, they blotted out the sun.

It appeared as though a wave of heavy rain was showering down on Chen Xiaolian.

Chen Xiaolian released a roar of his own, swept his hand and used the stone spear to make two swings in succession. As a result, two golden coloured swing trails appeared, acting like a shield to protect Chen Xiaolian.

The pikes and arrows that fell upon the golden coloured shield were instantly destroyed.

Chen Xiaolian diverted his attention to the bronze statue falling down on the tree. He sent his hand out, delivering a backhanded slap on the bronze statue.

The bronze statue fell faster.

Chen Xiaolian’s actions were done with all his might. The present him possessed an enhanced body with a power near that of [A] class. With such a power behind his actions, the bronze statue smashed down like a thunderbolt.

At the same time, Chen Xiaolian also quickly pulled out something else.

That something was a leather bag, which contained none other than… … blood.

Blood!

The blood he obtained from Qiu Yun.

Chen Xiaolian had no desire to cut himself and use his own blood like an idiot again.

He threw the leather bag, which flew over and landed on the large tree. Next, Chen Xiaolian stamped down heavily upon the ground, causing pieces of gravel to fly up. He then swept up the pieces of gravel and tossed them forward as well.

After falling upon the large tree, the leather bag was continuously struck by the pieces of gravel and blood flowed out from it. The blood flowed down the surface of the large tree.

At that moment, the falling bronze statue was about to smash into the tree.

The breaking of the spell array was right before him.

The black Bai Qi charged forward furiously.

A smile nearly broke out upon Chen Xiaolian’s face, but…

A black coloured smoke shot through the protective shield that Chen Xiaolian put up.

The golden coloured protective shield was simply incapable of stopping the black smoke.

The black smoke penetrated the shield and instantaneously arrived before the falling bronze statue.

With a “bang”, the black smoke struck the bronze statue, causing the top half of the statue to crumble. Before it could make contact with the large tree, the top part of the bronze statue crumbled into pieces.

Chen Xiaolian watched as the bronze statue crashed down the ground. The remains of the statue fell before the tree, inflicting no damage to the large tree at all. The smile on Chen Xiaolian’s face froze.

Damn it! I knew it would not be this easy…

The black Bai Qi, who had transformed into the black smoke, reappeared before the large tree. He gave the fallen bronze statue an indifferent glance before turning his sharp like gaze at Chen Xiaolian.

“Return it to me!”

Behind Chen Xiaolian, the Qin soldiers swarmed forward to kill him.

Chen Xiaolian shouted back, “Return your sister!”

Wielding the stone spear, he fiercely slashed the base position of another bronze statue. The muscles on his arms bulged explosively and he shouted out as the bronze statue fell down as well.

Hundreds of the Qin soldiers in the lead were immediately smashed to bits by the falling statue. Additionally, after falling down in the middle of the square, the large bronze statue acted as a wall, disrupting the wave like advance of the Qin soldiers.

At the same time, Chen Xiaolian picked up the leg part of the bronze statue that fell toward the large tree earlier. Roaring loudly, he raised the entire bronze statue and sent it slamming toward the large tree.

Weng!

Chen Xiaolian felt a tremor run through him. Looking forward, he saw that the black Bai Qi was standing before the bronze statue. His left palm was placed before the top part of the bronze statue while his eyes were coldly fixed upon Chen Xiaolian.

No matter how much Chen Xiaolian tried, he was unable to push the bronze statue a single inch forward.

On the black Bai Qi’s end, black coloured smoke swirled around his palm and the bronze statue slowly disintegrated.

The black Bai Qi himself was moving toward Chen Xiaolian.

Chen Xiaolian watched how the bronze statue fell apart like bubble foam before black Bai Qi’s might. Wherever Bai Qi touched would crumble to dust. In but two breaths’ of time, black Bai Qi had made it to a distance of only two metres from Chen Xiaolian.

Chen Xiaolian finally released his hold on the bronze statue. He bellowed loudly and brandished the stone spear, hacking down on black Bai Qi.

Skyblade’s power erupted forth instantly.

Black Bai Qi snorted in response and the black short sword in his hand flew out to meet the incoming attack. Black coloured smoke and golden coloured light collided silently and Chen Xiaolian felt his internal organs being squeezed by a powerful force. The power behind the force caused him to spit out a mouthful of blood.

Bai Qi’s body also suffered as a shock ran through his body, which flew backward like a large bird. He then spread open both hands and made an aerial somersault, landing at a distance. The surface of the ground where he landed crumbled to dust.

After their confrontation, it would appear that the both of them were equally matched.

The black coloured smoke on the surface of Bai Qi’s body became visibly dimmer.

However, Chen Xiaolian himself realized that this was his limit.

Skyblade’s power was something he could only unleash for an instant. Additionally, there was a limit to the number of times he could do so. It was not something he could use all the time.

Even Skyblade’s power was unable to suppress Bai Qi. If that was the case… … should this battle be prolonged, he would end up losing for sure.

“What the Hell is with [S] class… … damn it.” Chen Xiaolian wiped away the blood on his lips.

Although the Qin soldiers behind him were stopped by the fallen bronze statue, it did not take long for them to climb up the statue like ants. Some of the Qin soldiers who were of officer ranks leapt and vaulted over the bronze statue.

Noticing that, Chen Xiaolian responded.

“Garfield! Come out!”

Three beams of light appeared behind him and coalesced into Garfield doppelgangers. Chen Xiaolian also retrieved the Starchart of Generals that he had just obtained.

In one breath, he summoned out the first six generals within the Big Dipper array.

He could not remember their names. Although they were just some junior generals, they could still be of worth in this battlefield.

Six beams of light appeared and transformed into generals. All of them had tangible bodies condensed from the light. They also wore armour and wielded an assortment of weapons: spears, hammers etc. Instantly, Chen Xiaolian could feel a sense of communication much like the one he felt with his pets.

With a thought, the six generals charged the Qin army.

The existence of the bronze statue was like a dam, which interfered with the swarm strategy of the Qin army. Only one tenth of the Qin army was able to climb over the bronze statue. Although that number would increase over time, at least the Qin army was unable to gain an advantage in numbers. Chen Xiaolian’s six generals charged forward to meet them.

Although they were merely low-ranking generals, they were still War Souls of the [C] and [B] class. Additionally, with the blessing of the Big Dipper array, their powers were enhanced.

The six generals descended upon the Qin army and were able to kill those mobs as one would chop vegetables.

The advancing Qin soldiers were all cut down by the six generals who continued advancing until they reached the top of the bronze statue. Looking down on the incoming Qin soldiers, they appeared to be putting up a defensive action while standing atop a wall, successfully stopping the advance of the Qin army.

Occasionally, some would slip past them. However, there were three Garfield doppelgangers to take care of them.

Chen Xiaolian then glanced at the far away black Bai Qi, who had stood up and straightened his body. His eyes continued staring intently at Chen Xiaolian. Next, he stepped forward once more. This time, the killing intent radiating off black Bai Qi was even more ferocious.
