Chapter 617: Chapter 19: Fight with Fire

"Looking for death!" The Immovable Ming King was thoroughly angered, especially that mocking smile at the corner of Tang Zheng’s mouth, which made him feel ashamed and feel like a fool. The spark that was naturally adorned around him like air immediately ignited into a raging flame and instantly enveloped his body.

Without Tang Zheng deliberately shouting, the Conquerors were already in full firepower. Lu Fan swung his right hand, the sand surged towards the Buddha statue like a tide, aiming to submerge them. Chu Baichuan threw hand grenades. Already being explosives, under the influence of power, the power of these hand grenades increased more than tenfold. Clusters of fires surged among the Buddha statues and limbs flew everywhere.

The Buddha statues hurried to dodge, some that were not affected by the attack immediately began to counterattack, they spit out the True Word, then leaped into the air, smashing down from the sky.

"Immovable Ming King, you broke your promise. When you saw you couldn’t win the duel, you decided to attack us.

"Rubbish, you attacked first," Immovable Ming King was furious. He stretched out his arm, and the Wisdom Sword shot out, aiming at Tang Zheng.

"You said ’looking for death’, isn’t that a declaration of attack? Does it have any other meaning?" Tang Zheng drew out his Snow Shiro Maru to clash with the Wisdom Sword. After knocking it off, he watched a Buddha statue falling from the sky. He didn’t dodge at all, but swung his arm equipped with the Mechanical Lion Roar Cannon and struck it hard.

With a bang, the Buddha statue rolled over like an exploded baseball.

"Get your men to stop. There’s still the Gladiator fight. Of course, I will compensate for these losses," Tang Zheng said while distracting the Immovable Ming King’s attention. He wasn’t slow; he dodged a falling Buddha statue, immediately slashed out with the Snow Shiro Maru, cutting off half its shoulder, and then punched through its chest with a crack of breaking bones. He then swung his arm, sending it skywards like a meat shield.

The Buddha statue fell and struck directly onto it, crashing towards the ground. Boom, flesh and blood were splattered everywhere.

Hundreds of True Words bombarded out, and the Trojan Squad formation was broken.

"Compensate for the losses?" The Immovable Ming King was still attacking, but his movements slowed down a bit, "Yes, but I want the magic treasure on your wrist."

The Immovable Ming King would not let Tang Zheng go. It just wanted to get their magic treasure before starting the fight, which would be like pulling the teeth from a tiger.

"Change the condition." Tang Zheng pretended to hesitate, taking the chance to kill another Buddha statue.

"No, I want that." The Immovable Ming King was happy, thinking the other was going to compromise. He looked at the battlefield and was quite satisfied. Besides some particularly strong humans, most humans were being chased and attacked.

The newbies were panicking, all of them fleeing and unable to counterattack. The female college student was the most unfortunate; she was knocked down by a prisoner and before she could get up, she was hit by a True Word and spat out blood, unable to stand up.

The three big Ocean horses had good stamina; they didn’t get scared and ran to Chu Baichuan’s side when they saw that he was protecting Ai Yixin.

Among the Conquerors, Ai Yixin had weaker firepower, but with Chu Baichuan’s protection, it was still safe. Pang Meiqin relied on her speed to fight, not aiming for merit, but not doing anything wrong either.

Bai Guo had already turned invisible and was safest due to her use of a rail-less gravity gun. The Buddha statues she aimed at were unlucky; they were suddenly dismembered and shattered.

Yu Manli was able to withstand attacks with the Dragon’s Strength, with Xu Liangmao and Chen Hong guarding behind her, forming a small battle formation. The Seed Ability of the miserable man was a Beast Lion Form. After releasing it, he expanded several times and grew to three meters tall. His muscles bulged, veins knotted, his back arched, and his hair was thick and long, like a standing lion’s beastman. His power was considerable, and a slap could turn a Buddha statue’s head into minced meat.

Chen Hong didn’t use her ability, not only to reserve her strength, but also because she wasn’t suited for battle. Ruan Feifei ended up doing more, the arrogant Feifei was like a drawn sharp sword, wielding her arms continuously, countless blue and white forked lightning roared out, hitting the Buddha statue and blowing its body to smithereens, roasting it into a burnt lump.

"Get your men to stop. I agree," Tang Zheng didn’t soften his hand and was still killing. However, the Buddha statues were avoiding him and specifically attacked others. They also understood that it is easier to pick softer fruit, so the newbies were unlucky. Except for Gu’er and Du Ziyu, who were hugging each other forming a group of prisoners, they were all hit by True Word and spat out blood, wounded

"No, let’s shout together." The Immovable Ming King stared at Tang Zheng, afraid of being fooled.

"Fine, everyone, stop." Tang Zheng yelled out loud, shaking the sky. The Immovable Ming King was very satisfied and also asked his subordinates to stop attacking.

The Buddha statues had no choice but to begin retreating, withdrawing from the battle circle, but the Conquerors didn’t soften their hands and continued to attack. They took advantage of this intermission to wipe out another area.

Lu Fan controlled a Buddha statue’s legs with sand, then blew it into pieces with a Gauss Sniper Rifle. Following Tang Zheng for so long, how could he not understand his intentions? Today, it’s unlikely there’d be a peaceful ending. The only option was to fight to the end, and Tang Zheng was just trying to seize an opportunity.

The newbies didn’t understand and all stopped their hands, deeply fearing that they would provoke the Buddha statues. Right now, they just wanted to leave this place.

"What do you mean?" The Immovable Ming King was angry, pointing at Lu Fan, who was still shooting, and said sarcastically, "Are you really the captain?"

"Stop, can’t you understand my words?" Tang Zheng seemed angry, he pointed the Terminator directly at them. He gave them a winking signal when no one was watching. The conquerors understood quickly, gradually lessening their firepower. Consequently, three more Buddha statues became unlucky victims.

"Fine, give me the Magic Treasure, then continue the gladiator fight." Immovable Ming King was satisfied with Tang Zheng’s attitude, and had his strategy ready-- as soon as the Magic Treasure was in his hands, he’d attack with full force.

"Alright." Tang Zheng gestured as if to take off his wristwatch while advancing towards the Immovable Ming King. The Buddha Statues craned their necks to get a look at this Magic Treasure capable of storing objects. As the lowest-rank demon and Buddha Statues, not only did they not possess such a treasure, they had never even seen one before.

"Stop. Just throw it here." The Immovable Ming King, not being foolish enough to let Tang Zheng get too close, called a stop at once.

"Alright then." As soon as Tang Zheng finished speaking, he suddenly crouched and sprung towards the Immovable Ming King. Extending his hand out, he grabbed towards his head and shouted, "Attack."

As soon as Tang Zheng cried out, the conquerors had their weapons out, filling the square with gunshots. Buddha Statues, caught off guard, fell in large masses. However, none of them died because their ability to resist attacks was too strong.

"Quick, break out of the trap," Li Yulong cursed, thinking of leading his subordinates out of the Battle Circle. But the Buddha Statues had also become fierce, intending to wipe them all out. Suddenly, dozens of True Words came crashing down, causing the prisoners’ formation to collapse.

The Immovable Ming King was enraged, at the sight of Tang Zheng rushing towards him fearlessly, so much so that he started laughing in anger. With a wave of his hand, he shot his spiritually imbued Wisdom Sword straight towards Tang Zheng’s head. Simultaneously, he spit out a True Word, ’卍,’ which was far more powerful than those of his minions, its True Word forming a giant shield strong enough to block even the Cannon Beam.

Tang Zheng was undeterred. He swung his right hand, knocking away the Wisdom Sword. He leapt onto mid-air with a jump, dodging the True Word, while taking out his Terminator to fire, creating a barrage of bullets.

The bullets striking the Immovable Ming King were instantly deflected, as though they had struck a thick wall of metal. Unable to harm him in the least, the Wisdom Sword, which didn’t require his control, flew back by itself, attempting to kill Tang Zheng.

Thick, smoke rose as Tang Zheng’s mechanical right arm struck the Wisdom Sword, leaving a white mark on it. The sword curved in an arc for another attack, bringing along a strong whistling due to its high speed.

"It’s a Flying Sword, be careful uncle." Lu Fan formed a giant hand using sand to grab the Wisdom Sword, which could control itself. But within seconds, the sword pierced through the sand hand.

"You’re courting death, you will die first!" Immovable Ming King formed a sign with his hand, pointed at Lu Fan, and the Wisdom Sword instantly returned on its path, shooting down towards Little Lolita like a Heavy Cannon.

Lu Fan waved her hand, sand piled up layer upon layer over her head, forming a shield.

After piercing through a six-meter-thick Desert Barrier, the Wisdom Sword brushed past Lu Fan sticks into the Big Blue Stone, creating a big pit. The flying fragments hit Little Lolita’s face, leaving a bloody mark.

"It’s so hot. I have the Tyrannosaurus Protective Clothing on. If it was a newbie, wouldn’t they be burned to death if they got close?" Tang Zheng closed to within two meters in front of Immovable Ming King, immediately felt the heat of the flames around him, as if even his sweat glands were about to be scorched. Enduring the heat, he swung his Snow Substitute Ring for a behead attack.

The Immovable Ming King once again spit out a True Word, the Vajra Cord in his left hand lashed out towards Tang Zheng’s head like a whip.

Tang Zheng was forced to dodge. Judging from the sound of rushing wind caused by the Vajra Cord, he knew that if he were hit, his skin and flesh would definitely burst open, and his bones would shatter.

The Immovable Ming King snorted coldly, leapt into the air, and like a meteor, plunged down without any pause. Due to his high speed, he left behind a trail of fire.

The Immovable Ming King crash-landed, and the surrounding area within a radius of five meters was swept clean by the shockwave. Not even the Buddha Statues were spared.

Tang Zheng took out three Cluster Hand Grenades and tossed them. Amid the explosion, he quickly put on the hood of the Tyrannosaurus Protective Clothing, pulled up the face armor, now only his eyes were visible.

The injured university girl got up, disregarded the fresh blood at the corner of her mouth, and started to run unsteadily towards the main entrance of the temple. Had she chosen to go to Chu Baichuan like Da Yang Ma, she might have lived a bit longer. A Buddha Statue wouldn’t let such an opportunity go easily. It crashed down like a meteor, hitting her directly.

The university girl’s body, both below her chest and above her thighs, was instantly smashed into meat mush by the Buddha Statue. Her severed legs spun up into mid-air. She died on the spot, even before she could scream.

Tang Zheng once again fought with the Immovable Ming King. During the battle, he swept his eyes around the battlefield; every newbie was injured and their lives hanging by a thread. Luckily, the conquerors were powerful enough to have cleared away a lot of the Buddha Statues. Lin Weiguo managed to free his hand, charging towards them to kill the big boss.

"I will slaughter all of you!" Seeing his subordinates dying one after another, the Immovable Ming King roared in anger, his attacks growing fiercer. Just a single Flying Sword was enough to keep Lu Fan off balance.

"Haha, what a big mouth you have!" A roar reached everyone’s ears, and a figure had shot out from the Great Hall, appearing next to the Battle Circle almost instantly. (To be continued. If you like this work, please vote for it on qidian.com, your support is my greatest motivation.)
