To kill a leader under the protection of a group of Royal Guards, one would only need a single long-range Martial Technique, or to carve a bloody path with fearless courage and formidable strength! However, when protected by a group of Crossbowmen, neither method would be effective!
Firstly, Crossbowmen are exceptionally skilled in long-range attacks. They possess a heightened awareness of distant dangers compared to ordinary warriors. It can be said that if someone attempts to snipe their protected target from five hundred meters away, they can detect the target's presence from even the slightest fluctuation in Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy. Unless the attack is instantaneous, the problem lies in the fact that there is no true instantaneous Martial Technique in this world.
Every Martial Technique requires a buildup process. This buildup generally involves mobilizing True Energy from the Dantian, and during this internal mobilization, external Vital Energy must assist in amplifying the technique. This is why many warriors shout out the names of their Martial Techniques when they unleash them!
Such actions are not strictly necessary; they simply fill the gap while the warrior mobilizes True Energy. Instead of letting this gap go to waste in silence, it is better to shout out, as it can create quite an impressive effect!
However, at this moment, Ye Feng does not intend to shout anymore. He also lacks an instantaneous Martial Technique. His proud Void Sword Technique is merely extremely fast but has not evolved to that level. The only thing he can rely on seems to be the Weilian Shattered Immortal Spear he recently acquired!
The Shattering Immortal Spear is unlike a warrior; it is a spiritual weapon that can execute continuous Martial Techniques without needing external Vital Energy for propulsion! This is also why many warriors dream of possessing such a treasure!
Yet, Ye Feng cannot guarantee that a single strike from the Shattering Immortal Spear will be enough to kill several leaders! Although those leaders are not far apart, they are still three zhang away! The Martial Technique he has developed with the Weilian Shattered Immortal Spear has a maximum range of only Thunder Dragon Burrows!
However, the range of Thunder Dragon cannot cover all those leaders; at most, it can kill one. What about the remaining two? If he cannot achieve an instant kill, he will be exposed immediately. Faced with the rune-enhanced power of that group of Crossbowmen, even Ye Feng does not dare to be arrogant.
He does not have a defense barrier as monstrous as the Flying Spirit Lion... Time is running out. Whether it’s the Rogue Army surging from all directions or the impending threat from above with the Flying Spirit Lion, both will arrive or conclude in no time!
"What are you doing! So many people! So many arrows! Can't you even hit one live target?!" At this moment, one leader seemed dissatisfied with his subordinates' attack speed. Despite several dozen breaths passing, the Flying Spirit Lion still appeared powerful and unyielding in the air!
In contrast, the crossbow bolts falling to the ground were piling up like small mountains. Although their crossbows fired quickly, they could not withstand such consumption!
A Centurion among the crossbowmen seemed to notice some issues and ran over to report loudly to the leader: "Commander! I believe that guy won't hold out much longer!"
"And how long is that?!!! Give me an accurate time!" The leader was clearly displeased with tonight's encirclement and spoke harshly!
The Centurion hesitated for a moment and said with some reluctance: "With continuous attacks, our Crossbowmen will need at least a Short Incense Stick's worth of time at best to break through his barrier. By then, the shield soldiers will be able to finish him off!"
“A Short Incense Stick? Are you kidding me! Two have escaped!? And now another one shows up! When I sought help from Boss, I said there were two Martial Saints! Now there's only this unknown character left, how am I supposed to explain this!”
“Uh, sir, if you want to resolve this faster, there is a way, but...” Centurion hesitated, as if there was something he didn't dare to say!
“What is it! Spit it out!” the leader said sharply.
“It’s just that, I’m afraid we’ll need your Guard Crossbowman. If we add them along with the crossbow bolts around you, we can surely break through that person's defenses faster!” Centurion mustered his courage to finish his sentence, glancing at the leader with trepidation, seemingly afraid of provoking him!
The Guard Crossbowman was established to protect the leader and, strictly speaking, did not fall under Centurion's command. More importantly, the responsibilities of the Crossbowman were clearly defined; they could only serve as guards and were not allowed to engage other targets to prevent exploitation by other enemies.
This Rogue Group clearly had defined roles and strict discipline! However, upon hearing Centurion's words, the leader frowned and began to think seriously. The losses on his side were already severe; if a larger force came and found out he hadn’t dealt with a single Martial Saint, it would be more than just embarrassing!
“What do you all think?” the leader began to seek opinions from the other two leaders...
...These words were not secrets; they were overheard word for word by the hidden Ye Feng! His face lit up with surprise and excitement; fortune was truly on his side! If those leaders agreed to Centurion's request, then during the time when the surrounding Guard Crossbowman shifted their attention and reloaded their arrows, he could achieve a triple kill!
Soon enough, something delightful happened. After discussing among themselves, those leaders actually agreed to Centurion's request. It seemed they felt safe on their own turf and believed that it was rare for a warrior to be able to kill them from a hundred meters away!
“Guards, listen up! Switch to three-number crossbow bolts! Free fire until the target is dead!” Centurion shouted. The hundred or so Crossbowman guarding the leaders immediately began loading their bolts, their movements serious and silent, each expression meticulous and disciplined!
During this time, Ye Feng held his breath and prepared for his strike. Gripping the Weilian Shattered Immortal Spear, his knuckles turned white! His gaze was fixed tightly on the central leader; that would be his first target. Then, within moments, he planned to use the Void Sword Technique to take down enemies!
“Almost there! Just hold on for ten more seconds! Just ten seconds!” Ye Feng thought anxiously, also worried that the Flying Spirit Lion might not withstand the additional barrage from over a hundred crossbows! Soon enough, the crossbows were equipped! The Rogue Bandits’ crossbows fired in a three-round burst under Centurion's command, all aimed at the moonlight above!
Under the moonlight, one figure stood so heroically!
"Fire!" "Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!" "Bang, bang, bang!" The sound of crossbow bolts exploding became even more intense! Ye Feng was extremely nervous, fearing that the Flying Spirit Lion wouldn't hold on much longer!
Eight seconds, seven seconds, six seconds!...
"Boom!" Finally, under the terrifying rune weapons of the Crossbowmen, a clear gap opened in the barrier of the Flying Spirit Lion. The Flying Spirit Lion staggered slightly, revealing a grim smile, but boldly shouted, "Come on! Let me see what you humans have learned after ten thousand years!"
One shot! Zero! Time's up! The Guard Crossbowmen quickly fired a triple volley of crossbow bolts and began to reload! At this moment, several leaders heard the Flying Spirit Lion's roar and mockingly laughed, "Is this guy crazy? Is he out of his mind?"
"Hehe! Then let's crack open his head later and see what's inside!"
"Stop being disgusting! I think we should just roast him and eat him!"
... Amidst their banter, they were completely unaware that the Grim Reaper's scythe had already kissed their necks!
Ye Feng finally erupted! In the last second, he suddenly stood up, and then the Weilian Shattered Immortal Spear shot out fiercely!
"Thunder Dragon Burrow!" The martial technique he silently chanted was not shouted out loud, but the powerful shockwave of the Shattering Immortal Spear still caused a disturbance in the Heaven and Earth Vitality! This moment made the sharp-eyed Crossbowmen realize something was wrong! But they had no time to react and could only shout:
"Enemy attack! There's an enemy attack!"
Several leaders' expressions changed drastically upon hearing this, their laughter abruptly stopping! They all sensed the raging thunder from the sky! Unfortunately, when their gazes landed on a dragon pattern, the Shattering Immortal Spear had already smashed the head of the leader in the middle! At the same time, the power of Thunder Dragon Burrow erupted!
Within ten meters, all the Crossbowmen instantly perished, and debris flew everywhere affecting the nearby leaders and Royal Guards. The two groups of high-quality Crossbowmen quickly loaded two bolts each; however, their line of sight was obstructed. Coupled with the massive fluctuations caused by the Shattering Immortal Spear's Heaven and Earth Origin Power,
they could not accurately sense the position of their attacker! At this moment, Ye Feng's figure also blended into the dust!
"Wind Step! Raging Thunder Step!" The release of these two martial techniques made Ye Feng's figure appear ghostly as he wielded the Golden Dragon Sword! Countless Light Sword Shadows emerged!
All that could be heard were the chilling sounds of "hiss hiss hiss!" and the desperate screams of "ah ah ah!" The sound of sword light piercing through the hearts of enemies was terrifying!
"Who! Who is it!" The remaining two warriors at the early stage of the Gangwu Realm were unable to sense Ye Feng's position. In their panic, their horses became restless, nearly throwing them off!
The two leaders realized the danger approaching and quickly dismounted to prepare for battle! At this moment, the bandits who intended to deliver a final blow to their leader also reacted to the crisis, rushing over!
Unfortunately, it was too late! Ye Feng's figure suddenly appeared in front of one of the leaders, startling him into a scream! However, with a swift sound, the sword blade cut through his throat! He didn't even have time to scream; his hands clutching his neck seemed so powerless... With wide eyes, he fell lifeless!
After killing the second leader, Ye Feng vanished into the smoke again and swiftly appeared before the last leader. This time, he gave the opponent a chance to speak!
"You! Who are you!"
"The one who will kill you..." Ye Feng revealed a charming smile, which appeared to the other as a smile from death itself!
"No!" "Hiss!" With a swing of his sword, a head rolled to the ground... It tumbled a few times. Ye Feng did not disappear again but instead picked up the severed head with some disgust. As the smoke slowly dissipated, his figure was fully revealed to everyone!
The bandits' panicked screams froze in an instant. They saw Ye Feng but could do nothing, nor dare to do anything because he held their leader's head in his hand. On one side lay another leader's mangled remains, and on the other side was the gruesome sight of a throat cut.
"If you want to end up like them, then come at me. If not, I suggest you use every ounce of strength you have and run away as fast as you can, to a place where I can't catch you!"
