Chapter 422: The Person Behind (2/2)
No one knew when his behavior to overdraft his life force began. According to A Ye's estimation, he could only use another eight to nine blood marks at most. However, unexpectedly, when he later tried to refine them, the more he fought, the braver he was, and the coagulation of the blood marks did not become a burden to him.
”Perhaps my handsomeness has moved the blood spirit temple that it simply exempts me from death?” A Ye laughed, paused for a moment, and then his countenance turned gloomy.
”Since I have no more worry, then I won't be polite… master of Golden City, please kindly accept this gift on our first meeting from me!”
A Ye uttered a long laugh, then he threw his spear, which moved like a flash of lightning towards the top of the stone steps.
Behind him, the pursuing troops were menacing, but he and Zhou Mumu were like a completely dried oil lamp. However, in this desperate situation, A Ye still gave his all for the offensive, not considering his own survival at all.
How could you fear death, when you've basically died?
This spear, which took his life force, directly pierced the protective array wall that surrounded the city. A crisp cracking sound echoed in the sky of the capital city as the spherical s.h.i.+eld loudly shattered into pieces. In a split second, gold, silver and pearls fell down like rain. The great array that had s.h.i.+elded the capital city for hundreds of years actually broke!
However, it did not stop the blood mark divine spear as it continued to fly to the throne of the city master.
Gasps and exclaims sounded inside and outside the capital city. For many years, this was the first time a foreign force extended their reach towards the throne! Prior to this, no one had ever broken through the defense of gold clad army.
No one believed that this attack could really threaten the master of Golden City. However, this spear strike actually meant the dereliction of duty of the gold clad army, which meant that Golden City master must use the manpower that he didn't want to use!
Boom!
The blood mark divine spear exploded in mid air. Blood mist spread out from the explosion, and three golden lights flickered within it. However, this supreme spear challenge from Harmony River was finally blocked.
The gold clad regiments exclaimed, ”Pure gold guard!”
Among the gold guards in Golden City, the pure gold was the most revered. It was rumored that the Golden City master had twelve extremely close personal guards. Each one of them was comparable to the tyrannical strength of the gold clad army. Today, this was the first time people witnessed these pure gold guards made their move.
A mere three people were able to team up and block the blood mark divine spear—the pure gold guards truly deserved their reputation. This greatly inspired the morale of Golden City. The crowd scrambled to rush forward, for fear that the credit for killing the master of Harmony River fell into the hands of others. However, they only saw a blur, and the two people, master and follower, in the blink of an eye, had flashed over a long distance, directly pa.s.sing through the heavy encirclement and arriving under the stone steps of the misty capital!
It turned out that the main purpose of the previous spear strike was to break through the great protective array that s.h.i.+elded the city, which created a path for Zhou Mumu to launch her spell.
”Good, the throne is already in sight!” A Ye growled with excitement. At first, those ten thousand stone steps seemed unattainable, but now, their target was already around the corner.
The meeting with the master of Golden City was imminent!
However, the next moment, the cloud above them turned bright, and many pure gold guards emerged from the clouds. Three, four… in the shocked eyes of A Ye and Zhou Mumu, all of the twelve pure gold guards have a.s.sembled before them, forming insurmountable barriers.
With the appearance of the pure gold guards, the atmosphere immediately became heavy. And those tens of thousands of stone steps became very long and very heavy. A Ye somewhat reluctantly reached out to retrieve the blood mark divine spear, looked up and then said with a smile, ”Oh, Supreme, are you that timid just to fight me?”
”Then you'll have nowhere to hide!” A Ye roared, then his spear was once again tinted with a red color. The extremely precious blood mark had been added to the spear. The spear tip shone brightly, which was reflected at A Ye's full of vitality complexion.
Zhou Mumu wordlessly stood behind him. Her Diamond Ring shrouded the surrounding area which acted like an impenetrable barrier, a barrier that the magnificent army outside of it could not pa.s.s through.
In the battlefield chosen by Zhou Mumu, a battle that exceeded her fighting limit had entered an intense moment.
The bright red light surged endlessly. Under the support of the blood marks, A Ye was unstoppable!

”Shaman, you look really bad, do you want to take a rest?”
In the Eternal Tree, Zhan Ziye greeted her with great concern.
Shaman smiled and shook her head. The woman was pale, but insisted on her cultivation.
”There are several problems that I have yet to figure out.”
Zhan Ziye hesitated. ”Are… you trying to rush here?”
”Hey, you said that time is the most valuable a.s.set.”
In the face of Shaman's sweet smiling face, Zhan Ziye felt that he could not resist her gaze. Thus, he lowered his head and turned his attention back to the drawing of the spell a.n.a.lysis. It was the ancient secret method, the inheritance of Eternal Tree that had been pa.s.sed down from Sacred Leaf to Sacred Leaf for years. It was quite difficult for them to pa.r.s.e it. Both of them were already exhausted from thinking over it… It was just that, Zhan Ziye always thought that Shaman's physical energy consumption was much faster than normal, especially this day. Zhan Ziye simply watched her helplessly going from full of vitality to withered… Was her dedication to academic even higher than him?
Thinking that his own master was this diligent, Zhan Ziye could not help but show a satisfied smile. In particular, the recent dispute with Zhou Mumu in the tree hole made him feel that the present tranquil time was commendable.
Could you, Zhou Mumu, a disciple who has been conditioned by the ancient relics of Kunlun Sect, understand this academic atmosphere? He thought.
Zhan Ziye felt very pleased, but he did not notice that Shaman's breath was rapidly weakening, and it was far beyond normal!
