Chapter 504 502: Life-and-Death Battle
The Tiger Ferocity Gang's main hall was vast, but it shattered with a CRASH under the explosive power and aura of these experts.
Now, they were merely enveloped by a restrictive light curtain. The surrounding area was empty, and they were visible to all.
The commotion here was too great. The tens of thousands of members of the Tiger Ferocity Gang now surrounded the area to watch.
A group of bandits who had been monitoring the situation also hovered in the sky, watching from afar.
From the Luochen Sect's encampment, figures also shot into the air.
"It's the Sect Leader and Boss Little Gray! They... they actually attacked the Tiger Ferocity Gang? That's... so aggressive, isn't it?"
"But the situation doesn't look good. The Sect Leader and Boss Little Gray are only two people, while the enemy has three Gang Leaders and a big shot from Chaotic City."
"Who cares! Charge up to the Tiger Ferocity Gang and help the Sect Leader and Boss Little Gray!"
...
Seeing their Sect Leader and Boss in trouble, the members of the Luochen Sect wanted to charge toward Tiger Mountain without a second thought.
After several days of bloody battles, they had all become fearless and battle-hardened.
Little Gray Skeleton, in particular, had become the most respected person after the Sect Leader and was called Boss Little Gray by everyone.
However, the Lishan Military Advisor spoke up at this moment. "Everyone, calm down. The Sect Leader has given an order: we are to sneak over and strike when they are completely absorbed in watching the fight. Therefore, you must all obey my commands!"
Hearing Elder Lishan's words, even the Three Strange Bandits—Shi San, Big Black, and Little Bai—exclaimed in awe, lauding him as a Divine Being. "As expected of the Sect Leader and Boss Little Gray! To think they could come up with such a devious and wicked tactic!"
"Yeah! Those people must be completely captivated by the battle right now. How could they possibly notice us sneaking up behind them?"
"So treacherous! So despicable! I love it! WAGAGA..."
The three were thrilled and excited, their admiration and worship for Jiang Jichen and Little Gray reaching an extreme.
And so, under the Lishan Military Advisor's arrangement and leadership, the members of the Luochen Sect stealthily advanced toward the Tiger Ferocity Gang.
Over thirty Skeleton Soldiers and the Three Strange Bandits, led by the Luochen Fairy, infiltrated from another direction.
At this moment, everyone's attention was focused on the battle at the Tiger Ferocity Gang's location. Absolutely no one noticed a group of people quietly approaching.
Tiger Mountain, usually heavily guarded, was now effectively defenseless. All the gang members had run to the summit to watch the fight.
And now, within the Restriction Light Curtain, the great battle had erupted.
Jiang Jichen and Little Gray completely ignored the Sand Snake Ancestor, instead locking onto the three Gang Leaders and charging them.
The Sinking Mountain and the Holy Sword were in his hands simultaneously.
A purple Spirit Pattern Array materialized, enveloping Jiang Jichen's entire body.
Golden Undying Power also circulated through him, covering the surface of his skin.
The Demon Phoenix Remnant Technique and the Undying Scripture began to operate.
At this moment, Jiang Jichen had activated his defenses to their strongest state.
He charged straight forward, making no attempt to dodge or evade.
It was as if he was aiming for mutual destruction.
"You're courting death!"
The three Gang Leaders and their four powerful attendants were enraged at being so blatantly disrespected by Jiang Jichen.
They roared angrily and charged, surrounding Jiang Jichen to kill him.
The Sand Snake Ancestor remained floating by the Gang Leader's throne. He did not act immediately.
His gaze was just fixed on Jiang Jichen with a chilling intensity, ready to unleash a world-shattering ultimate kill at any moment.
If it were anyone else, being locked onto by the Divine Thought of an expert like the Sand Snake Ancestor in the middle of a battle would make them extremely wary.
They would hold back when they attacked, to guard against the other's strike.
Jiang Jichen, however, acted as if the Sand Snake Ancestor didn't even exist, even leaving a wide-open vulnerability facing him.
It seemed he was just waiting for the man to attack.
But the more he did this, the more suspicious and uncertain the Sand Snake Ancestor became, wondering why Jiang Jichen would dare expose an opening to him.
'Is it a trap?'
In the end, the Sand Snake Ancestor hesitated for a moment and missed a perfect opportunity.
And Jiang Jichen had already clashed head-on with the three Gang Leaders and their four powerful attendants.
"Kill!"
Jiang Jichen swung the Holy Sword and the Sinking Mountain at the same time.
Only a monster like Jiang Jichen could divide his focus like this, possessing endless, terrifying power to support using both Swordsmanship and Saber Technique simultaneously.
The Holy Sword danced, its shadow like a dream as Jiang Jichen unleashed a torrent of endlessly terrifying swordsmanship.
Star Sword Technique!
Tai Chi Swordsmanship!
Wandering Dragon Sword Technique!
The Sinking Mountain slashed horizontally, its blade flashing as an incomparably fierce Saber Technique also manifested.
Great Wind Saber Technique!
Heaven-Dominating Saber Technique!
He now used both saber and sword, alternating his attacks.
Jiang Jichen erupted with his strongest Defense Power and his mightiest combat strength.
The faces of the three Gang Leaders and their four powerful attendants finally changed drastically.
They had never imagined that a Late-stage Spirit Infant Extreme Genius could be this strong.
However, they were not afraid; they had the advantage in Realm.
BOOM! BOOM...
Jiang Jichen, Little Gray, the three Gang Leaders, and the four powerful attendants were all engulfed by a chaotic storm of saber flashes, sword shadows, Fist Seals, Palm Shadows, and various Anomalies, completely obscuring them from view.
Even the Sand Snake Ancestor now secretly regretted missing his chance to strike earlier.
He wanted to attack now, but he could no longer find an opening.
He could only wait for their Dao of Attack to dissipate and for a result to emerge before he could find another opportunity to act.
"AHH..."
"No, help me!"
Screams of agony echoed from within the terrifying maelstrom of attacks.
"Lingchen, time to send you on your way!"
Only when this voice sounded did the power of the attacks within the Restriction Light Curtain finally dissipate.
Then, the crowd witnessed a shocking scene.
On the ground lay four mangled corpses.
They were the four powerful attendants, shredded by the saber light and sword shadows, as dead as could be.
But finally, the crowd saw Jiang Jichen also get hit by the lingering force of the three Gang Leaders' attack.
PTHH!
Jiang Jichen spat out blood. His defenses had long since shattered, and his body was covered in countless wounds, not a single spot left unscathed.
Even the bone of his left arm was protruding through the flesh—a gruesome sight to the extreme.
But even so, Jiang Jichen's expression was calm. He did not fall.
"How is this possible? He's still not dead?"
The three Gang Leaders cried out, a look of terror flashing across their faces.
"Dead? That should be your concern!"
Jiang Jichen spoke with chilling coldness as a mysterious Undying Phoenix Pattern suddenly appeared on his body, spreading to every corner.
In just an instant, Jiang Jichen was as good as new.
This was the Undying Resurrection Technique from the Demon Phoenix Remnant Technique. Grievously injured, Jiang Jichen had used it without hesitation.
Then, he took a step forward, arriving before the three Gang Leaders.
Little Gray, at some unknown point, had appeared behind the three Gang Leaders.
"Watch out!"
Seeing this turn of events, the distant Sand Snake Ancestor shouted and charged forward at the same time.
But he was a fraction too slow!
SMACK! SMACK!
SLICE! SLICE!
At close range, two of them were smashed to pieces by the power of Jiang Jichen's Sinking Mountain Six Harmonies Unity, their bodies exploding as blood shot into the sky.
The third was sliced in two by Little Gray's White Bone Large Machete, utterly dead.
But at the same time, the Sand Snake Ancestor arrived, striking Jiang Jichen in the center of his back with a palm.
PTHH!
Jiang Jichen's body nearly split apart as a terrifying poison instantly spread throughout him.
Even his poison-immune constitution could barely resist it.
"You may have killed them all, but now you can just wait for death! Haha...!"
The Sand Snake Ancestor laughed triumphantly, feeling Jiang Jichen's life force rapidly fading away.
