Ten thousand I am across the heavens

The eighth, eleventh, and even the weakened thirteenth legions have all joined the siege of Wu Meng.

Even in a near four-on-one brawl, they didn't actually gain a significant advantage. This is where the powerful defense of the Immortal Gu House comes into play. Previously, the three legions had concentrated all their power on Lan Tian, ​​only then gaining the ability to break through his defenses. Now, even with their extremely strong offensive power and explosive force, and their coordinated attacks, there's not much they can do to take down a top-tier, eighth-rank Immortal Gu House in a short time.

Wu Meng was indeed being chased and leaped about by this group. He was in a very sorry state, and some attacks that could even penetrate his defenses had already landed on him, causing considerable damage. If no one came to his aid for a long time, and he continued to be surrounded and attacked, he might actually be beaten to death.

But at this very moment, the true owner of this small bamboo house has finally returned. He is also the one who best understands how to control this Immortal Gu House. With a gust of wind, the bamboo rustles. A cyan barrier, like clumps of bamboo, sprouts forth, covering a vast area of ​​sky and ground. It is constantly destroyed by terrifying attacks, yet it continuously grows back, displaying an extremely tenacious vitality.

Even without returning to the interior of the small bamboo house, Wu Yong still possessed greater control than his juniors. At this moment, the unleashed unknown killing move rendered most attacks utterly ineffective, as if nothing had happened after they struck.

Upon landing, Wu Yong immediately rejoined the battle. He also cast a shield on himself to defend against the Seventh Legion. Now that he was back on the battlefield, the shield could be anchored in space. Slower movement speed was fine; as long as he wouldn't be knocked away, there wouldn't be any problems.

Faced with such a formidable enemy, the Eleventh Legion, which had just been the main force on the battlefield, had no choice but to withdraw and turn to deal with Wu Yong. Only the Eleventh Legion had enough strength to hold off a top-level eighth-rank Wu Yong on its own when dealing with a single strongman.

However, when facing such top-tier eighth-tier opponents, they can no longer suppress them as before. On the contrary, they will be severely suppressed. They can only rely on the strength of their legion's talent to barely hold on.

Even without using the Great Harmony Wind, Wu Yong's overall strength was extremely formidable; when a storm swirled around him, even those who shared the power of a sixth-level immortal dared not approach. The vast difference in strength meant they could be instantly killed at any moment. However, the intense and exciting battles also allowed them to continuously learn on the battlefield. The Eleventh Legion was perhaps the only legion whose entire members had unlocked their genetic potential, and because of this, the fiercer the battle, the more it stimulated their potential.

At this moment, more than one-third of the warriors have entered a state of complete daze, deeply developing their shared abilities. This has led to the inclusion of abstract concepts like fortune and rank within this shared capability. Not only can their combat allies share the strength of a sixth-tier immortal, but they can also borrow their destiny along with it. Their comrades will act like protagonists, turning misfortune into good fortune and easily overcoming even dire situations.

Their shared combat talent made everyone a remarkably gifted warrior. Even Wu Yong couldn't help but marvel at their abilities when fighting them. He could easily annihilate their attacks. Sometimes, not only were his attacks dodged, but they were also manipulated by them, like Tai Chi, absorbing their power, converting it into their own, and then returning it. If they weren't enemies, witnessing such exquisite combat techniques, such masterful use of leverage, would have made him want to applaud.

But now that they are enemies, we must use the most brutal and ferocious attacks to destroy their defenses.

He compressed the terrifying storm into a line, accelerating it to its maximum speed with almost no time interval, and shot it toward an 11th Legion soldier who had not shared the power at that moment.

During his observations, he discovered that those warriors who hadn't shared the power were actually slightly weaker, arguably the weakest point in the legion. While they could switch to their powerful state almost instantly, even reaching near-eighth-tier form if necessary, their speed and reaction time were severely reduced beforehand. Even though the switch was instantaneous, the transition from static to dynamic states still required time.

In other words, these warriors without shared abilities aren't necessarily easier to kill, but they are easier to aim at. Before their abilities were shared, they had difficulty concealing their location and movement patterns, and their speed wasn't very fast either. Even among the few weaknesses of the Eleventh Legion that could be exploited...

If even borrowing power in that instant isn't enough to dodge, then they'll have no choice but to take the hit head-on.

Laser-type attacks are a prime example. If you don't anticipate the opponent's attack and judge its direction from their preparatory movements, even if you instantly switch abilities, it's too late to dodge.

That extremely compressed breeze was as fine as a needle. Although it wasn't a light-speed attack, it was still fast enough that there was no time to dodge it when going from stillness to motion.

The attacked warriors instantly gained the combat power of a seventh-tier warrior. This even affected sixth-tier warriors on other fronts, forcibly draining a portion of their power.

But facing the full force of an eighth-level expert's attack, an instantaneous killing move was virtually impossible to defend against. His body was about to be frozen through, or even destroyed by the gale, when in that instant all the warriors' lives were connected, becoming one.

This was a tactic they had never used before. It was also because no enemy had ever forced them to this point before. Compared to other legions that had suffered losses or even been killed in action, the Eleventh Legion had fought the entire battle without losing a single person. Their shared ability was practically a bug.

At this moment, they were finally forced into a situation where one of them might be killed. Under Wu Yong's all-out attack, even if they concentrated all their strength on the same person, they might still be instantly killed if they did not dodge the attack.

So at this moment, they withdrew some of their power. Knowing that they could not stop this machine by normal means, they chose another way: life sharing.

They share their life force, thus linking their lives together. This is not simply about sharing health bars; on the contrary, it's not about sharing health bars, but about sharing the concept of life itself.

This means sharing and integrating oneself as a life form with others. This is one of the most practical advanced applications they have explored over the years. When this sharing occurs, everyone is treated as a whole, as a single super life form. In that instant, the warrior hit was instantly annihilated into dust, leaving hardly any ashes in mid-air. Logically speaking, even a true immortal would perish from such an attack.

But the situation on the battlefield was extremely strange. The ashes had vanished, completely annihilated in this world. Yet, where the warrior had just died, flesh and blood sprouted out of thin air, instantly regrowing into a human form. In the blink of an eye, he reappeared on the battlefield, only now his equipment, destroyed by the terrifying attack, was completely naked, his eyes slightly vacant, seemingly lacking any self-awareness.

But only for a moment. Self-awareness returned, and his eyes regained their sparkle. He quickly used his comrades' speed to retreat to the rear and change equipment. While sharing equipment was possible, equipment losses were inevitable in battle, and over time, even with shared equipment, there would eventually come a day when all equipment would be destroyed; timely replenishment was crucial.

Wu Yong momentarily lost control of his expression. He felt an urge to curse. Logically speaking, that level of attack should have been enough to kill him. He had even witnessed his opponent being reduced to ashes. How could it regenerate unscathed in the blink of an eye?

This isn't a comic book, so no one will explain to him what abilities his opponent used. As one of their powerful trump cards, the Eleventh Legion won't proactively reveal their trump cards to their opponents.

However, even if Wu Yong knew the principle behind their resurrection of their comrades, he wouldn't have many effective countermeasures. After all, he belonged to the Wind Path, a relatively low-mystery school of thought. Schools specializing in Blood Path or Soul Path, which excel in curses or invisible attacks, might be able to exploit the unique nature of their trump card to launch targeted attacks.

The principle behind their resurrection of their comrades isn't actually that complex. After they shared themselves as a single life form, everyone became a unified organism, except that their bodies weren't connected. This is extremely rare in nature, but not entirely impossible. Separate bodies don't mean they can't be a single life form.

After achieving conceptual unification, the complete destruction of a person's body, from the perspective of the entire living organism, is essentially equivalent to the destruction of a part of the body. If we were to use a person as an analogy, it might be equivalent to a finger or a piece of skin being cut off.

For injuries that are merely skin lesions, there is a high probability that they can heal on their own. Furthermore, if the body's healing abilities are concentrated at the wound site, it is even more likely that the wound will heal itself in a short period of time.

Thus, the scene of a person suddenly appearing out of thin air occurred. It's true that this newly grown person was merely the body of the enormous creature and lacked its own consciousness. However, consciousness is not immutable. The ability to share even concepts can be shared, so naturally, thoughts can also be shared. In the instant before death, one can transfer their thoughts outward. Then, after the body has healed itself, it can instantly send its self-consciousness back into the body. This accomplishes an act akin to resurrection, defying all odds.

If you treat their entire legion as a boss, then to eliminate them, you would have to cause the deaths of a large number of members in an instant.

Even if they are conceptually integrated and considered a single life form, it would be difficult for this life form to heal itself quickly in the event of severe trauma.

It's like having a small piece of skin cut off. It will most likely heal. But if you were to lose an arm, it could result in a lifelong disability.

The casualties of a few dozen people are something they can recover from in an instant, but the casualties of hundreds or thousands are a different story.

Even if Wu Yong truly understood the underlying principles, he would still feel despair at this arduous task.

The logic is simple: killing multiple targets simultaneously is much more difficult than using a wide-area attack. While it's indeed possible to kill multiple targets at once, the problem is that it's very difficult for these individuals to die simultaneously within a very short timeframe.

If the time difference between their deaths exceeds one-tenth of a second, it becomes essentially meaningless. The 11th Legion, extremely adept at flexible relocation, is more than capable of resurrecting the previous fallen soldier within this extremely short time, or directly replacing that part of the body with a conceptual one, ensuring the conceptual integrity of the body, in order to resurrect other fallen comrades.

Killing even one enemy in an instant is incredibly difficult. To kill ten simultaneously, with the time interval between them controlled to within 0.1 seconds, is practically an impossible task. In some ways, the 10th Legion is even stronger than him in terms of survivability. As long as most of their comrades are alive, none will die.

Unless it's during their shared life, by using conceptual attacks to strike at the whole, influencing it from a fateful or other level, it's relatively easy to inflict fatal damage on the Eleventh Legion in this special state.

This is also one of the few side effects of the ability to share life. After treating each other as a single life form, certain curse-like killing techniques targeting a single life form can instantly take effect on all members. If the curse is strong enough and its destructive power is high enough, it's possible for it to erupt in a short time, instantly taking down all members. After all, at that moment they are connected, considered as the same life form. If this life form is killed, it means that even if the others' bodies are intact, they will die along with it. It's like a person losing a small piece of skin or flesh, which can grow back, but if a person's head is cut off, even if the body remains intact, it will die along with the head.
