Ye Tian frowned upon seeing the enormous pit. It was clear that it could not have been dug by the Divine Dragon as Wang Tianba suggested, but it was quite possible that the Divine Dragon wanted to use this opportunity to escape.
"Make your move!"
Just as Ye Tian was pondering, he heard a low shout from Jingfeng Lei Kuan Ti. When he turned to look, he saw that the latter had already rushed into the arena.
Ye Tian scoffed at this. Jingfeng Lei Kuan Ti was clearly unable to remain calm. Although the Divine Dragon was currently weakened, it was not yet powerless to retaliate. Their actions were indeed unwise.
This situation was actually quite normal, as the other three besides Ye Tian were all after the Divine Dragon Treasure. Cold King and his companion had already charged ahead, and Jingfeng Lei Kuan Ti was anxious to prevent them from seizing the opportunity. No one knew what the Divine Dragon Treasure truly was; if it turned out to be a drop of the Divine Dragon's saliva, then whoever got close first would be at a disadvantage.
In the blink of an eye, Jingfeng Lei Kuan Ti dashed into the arena. Cold Wu immediately turned to face the enemy, while Wang Tianba continued attacking the Divine Dragon, ignoring the fierce battle between the two.
The Divine Dragon soared higher into the air, but due to its loss of strength, it could only reach a height of about ten zhang before being unable to ascend further. Wang Tianba was overjoyed at this sight and unleashed his Black Tiger Lying Dragon Blade repeatedly, sending Blade Qi slicing through the air. Each strike made a sizzling sound as it hit the Divine Dragon, yet there were no visible signs of injury on it.
In contrast, Jingfeng Lei Kuan Ti and Cold Wu were engaged in a fierce battle. Normally, Cold Wu, with his near Three-Stage Martial Artist late-stage strength, should have quickly gained the upper hand against Jingfeng Lei Kuan Ti, who was only a Second-Stage Martial Artist early-stage.
However, Cold Wu lacked cunning and was overly concerned that Wang Tianba might defeat the Divine Dragon and claim the treasure first. As a result, he frequently diverted his attention during their fight. This gave Jingfeng Lei Kuan Ti an opportunity to strike hard at Cold Wu's vital points, putting Cold Wu at a disadvantage despite his superior strength.
Jingfeng Lei Kuan Ti fought while laughing, appearing very relaxed. Meanwhile, Cold Wu grew increasingly furious; not only did he have to keep an eye on the Divine Dragon, but he also struggled to gain an advantage over Jingfeng Lei Kuan Ti. The latter's taunts further disturbed his focus, causing his movements to slow down.
In truth, Jingfeng Lei Kuan Ti's desire for the Divine Dragon Treasure was no less than Cold Wu's. The reason he did not divert his attention was that Cold Wu had already taken on that responsibility. Cold Wu constantly monitored the situation with the Divine Dragon; if anything unusual occurred, he would surely abandon their fight to seize it. At that point, Jingfeng Lei Kuan Ti could simply follow him over, saving time and effort while gaining an advantage in their battle—truly killing two birds with one stone.
"What a bunch of fools."
Ye Tian couldn't help but smile at this scene. The saying goes that those without desires are strong; Cold Wu was too obvious in his intentions and easily manipulated. If he had focused solely on fighting instead of watching the Divine Dragon, Jingfeng Lei Kuan Ti would likely have already been defeated.
Wang Tianba was particularly reckless, even taking the initiative to attack Divine Dragon. Not to mention that Divine Dragon was not dead yet; even if it were, one should still observe for a moment. Such a divine beast could possess unimaginable power.
However, while mocking them, one still had to intervene. If Cold Wu died, it wouldn't cause any trouble for himself, but it would definitely benefit Jingfeng Lei Kuan Ti.
Although Wang Tianba and Cold Wu were powerful, they were both reckless individuals. Compared to Xu Anti, they posed a smaller threat, so they had to die after Xu Anti.
With this thought in mind, Ye Tian gathered his energy and rushed out, shouting, "I am here to assist you!"
Ye Tian was not far from the two fighting. As he activated Yuqi Tayan Jue, he quickly reached them. However, Ye Tian targeted Cold Wu intentionally to create an illusion of assistance for Jingfeng Lei Kuan Ti while actually helping Cold Wu out of trouble.
Sure enough, when Cold Wu saw Ye Tian attacking him, he decisively pushed back Jingfeng Lei Kuan Ti with a palm strike and then floated back to join Wang Tianba.
Jingfeng Lei Kuan Ti's face flashed with anger at this sight, a reaction that did not escape Ye Tian's eyes. This confirmed his earlier deduction; Jingfeng Lei Kuan Ti was indeed worried about Cold Wu teaming up with Ye Tian.
"Let's kill Wang Tianba first." Ye Tian stood beside Jingfeng Lei Kuan Ti, feigning a serious expression. Previously, Jingfeng Lei Kuan Ti had suggested eliminating Wang Tianba first as a tactic, and now Ye Tian intended to use that against him.
"Let's kill Cold Wu first! Since Wang Tianba is attacking Divine Dragon, Divine Dragon will surely not spare him; we don't need to exert ourselves." Jingfeng Lei Kuan Ti responded quickly with a reasonable argument.
"Alright!" Ye Tian agreed nonchalantly. After all, the situation on the battlefield changed rapidly. Just as Jingfeng Lei Kuan Ti had said before, adapting to circumstances was the best plan.
After their exchange, they moved forward directly toward Cold Wu. Ye Tian deliberately preserved Cold Wu's life; whenever he attacked, he always hindered Jingfeng Lei Kuan Ti's offensive moves. However, Jingfeng Lei Kuan Ti did not take the opportunity to attack Ye Tian, indicating that he was more concerned about Cold Wu and Wang Tianba than about Ye Tian.
"Keep an eye on Wang Tianba; I'll handle this person." Several of Jingfeng Lei Kuan Ti's attacks were thwarted by Ye Tian's "unintentional" interference. Furious but unable to voice it directly, he suddenly thought of a way to get rid of Ye Tian.
Hearing this made Ye Tian secretly pleased; in desperate struggles, the most taboo thing was being unsettled in mind. Jingfeng Lei Kuan Ti had unknowingly fallen into this trap.
"Then be careful." Ye Tian said with a mischievous smile as he withdrew, leaving Jingfeng Lei Kuan Ti to deal with Cold Wu alone.
As they approached near Wang Tianba, Divine Dragon's movements could be detected by the corner of his eye. Therefore, Cold Wu no longer paid attention to Divine Dragon and focused all his energy on attacking Jingfeng Lei Kuan Ti. The disparity in their strengths was already evident, and after this exchange, Jingfeng Lei Kuan Ti found himself at a disadvantage, finally realizing the source of Ye Tian's earlier smirk.
"Damn it! If I obtain the Divine Dragon Treasure, I will definitely crush you to pieces!" Jingfeng Lei Kuan Ti barely deflected Cold Wu's attack, cursing inwardly. He managed to glance at Ye Tian, who was standing not far from Wang Tianba, observing the situation with a relaxed expression.
"Jingfeng Lei Kuan Ti! You shameless scoundrel, you're nothing but a lackey!" Cold Wu had suffered greatly from Jingfeng Lei Kuan Ti's previous tactics and was now filled with pent-up anger. Finally able to vent, he not only attacked fiercely but also unleashed his verbal assault.
Hearing Cold Wu's insults only confirmed Jingfeng Lei Kuan Ti's earlier thoughts. He believed that Cold Wu was lashing out because he had allied with Hu Lue, then turned to Wang Tianba, and now joined forces with Ye Tian. However, this interpretation added layers of complexity in Jingfeng Lei Kuan Ti's mind. He was overly cautious and assumed that Cold Wu's disdain for fickle individuals implied a loyalty to those who were steadfast. Loyalty meant that despite leaving the Cold Family, Cold Wu still harbored feelings for it and would eventually team up with Ye Tian.
Jingfeng Lei Kuan Ti was shaken by these thoughts because if Cold Wu allied with Ye Tian, it would mean his doom.
In truth, Jingfeng Lei Kuan Ti's assumptions stemmed from his unfamiliarity with the situation. He only knew that Cold Wu was a member of the Cold Family but did not realize that Cold Wu was merely a distant relative and not a legitimate member; without legitimacy, there could be no talk of loyalty.
"Cold Wu, if we join forces, we can achieve great things!" As Jingfeng Lei Kuan Ti gradually weakened and called out for Ye Tian's assistance multiple times to no avail, he had no choice but to devise another plan. Given the urgent circumstances, the greatest threat came from Cold Wu's fierce attacks; thus, the best strategy was to ally with Cold Wu for self-preservation...
Cold Wu hesitated for a moment upon hearing this proposal. This brief hesitation prompted Jingfeng Lei Kuan Ti to instinctively consider taking advantage of it to strike back but ultimately held back.
"Join hands with your mother!" Cold Wu cursed loudly and charged forward again. Although he wasn't particularly clever, he sensed a fleeting glimmer of murderous intent in Jingfeng Lei Kuan Ti's eyes.
Jingfeng Lei Kuan Ti silently lamented his situation and hurriedly defended himself while gradually maneuvering Cold Wu toward Ye Tian.
Although Ye Tian ignored Jingfeng Lei Kuan Ti's pleas for help, he kept a close watch on their movements. Seeing Jingfeng Lei Kuan Ti trying to draw the battlefield closer to him, Ye Tian couldn't help but chuckle inwardly. He then activated Yuqi Tayan Jue, reappearing twenty zhang away.
"Wang Tianba, prepare to die!" Once he steadied himself, Ye Tian shouted at Wang Tianba, who was still fiercely attacking Divine Dragon. At the same time, his hand gestures changed as a Bagua Pattern glowing with blue-green light appeared before him.
"Bagua Thunder Seal?!" Wang Tianba turned around in shock upon hearing the voice. He had experienced Cold Boyuan's Bagua Thunder Seal and knew well the immense power of this Earth Level One Martial Art unique to Spirit Martial Town.
Roar...
Due to a sense of dread, Wang Tianba paused his attack on the Divine Dragon, allowing it to catch its breath and let out a hoarse growl.
"Wang Tianba, surrender!" Ye Tian continued to shout, but he did not take action. His true intention was not to attack Wang Tianba; he aimed to seize the opportunity to gather momentum until the Bagua Thunder Seal reached completion, allowing him to eliminate three opponents in one strike.
The azure blue Bagua Thunder Seal spun rapidly in front of Ye Tian, with Martial Origin Power and Spiritual Energy continuously surging from his body. As the power was infused, the Bagua Pattern grew increasingly robust, transforming into the size of a grinding wheel within just a short while.
Seeing this, Wang Tianba felt even more alarmed. After a moment's thought, he completely abandoned the Divine Dragon and darted toward Xu Leng and the others in battle.
"Ha ha, just as I wished," Ye Tian thought to himself with a smirk upon seeing Wang Tianba's actions. Due to previous events, Wang Tianba had already concluded that Ye Tian had formed an alliance with Jingfeng Lei Kuan Ti. He believed that Ye Tian would be hesitant to act against Jingfeng Lei Kuan Ti for fear of causing harm, which would allow him to buy time until Ye Tian's Bagua Thunder Seal naturally dissipated. That moment would signal the start of their counterattack.
Wang Tianba considered himself clever. As he approached, he exchanged various glances with Cold Wu, who surprisingly understood his intentions. The two adjusted their strategy, attacking with only fifty percent of their strength each time, aiming to keep Jingfeng Lei Kuan Ti from escaping the battle while ensuring his safety.
The foolish actions of Cold King and his companion furrowed Jingfeng Lei Kuan Ti's brow as he silently cursed them in his heart.
While others were unaware, he understood Ye Tian's thoughts very well—once the momentum reached its peak, it would be a case of killing three birds with one stone!
To the readers:
You probably didn't expect this chapter to be released today. Since subscriptions increased a bit yesterday, I decided to give back by posting this chapter. Additionally, I previously added only one extra chapter for Yan Chen due to limited stockpiles; I will try my best to make up for it later.
