Traveling across the globe for the first time

Chapter 950 Tengu
Having likely died once and recently revived, the Tengu is no longer as unrestrained as before and has become much more cautious. Seeing that there are too many powerful people here, it has been holding back and has not dared to come over.

Upon hearing Fang Ping's summons, he immediately agreed.

The guardian of the spring was a fearless man. How could he not participate in something as prestigious as challenging the emperor?
He dares to do anything to anyone except the Spirit Emperor in the lower realm.

Both the man and the dog rushed over at top speed.

Zhang Haoran waved his hand and said, "Alright! The treacherous emperor will arrive soon, and he should be coming out from somewhere nearby."

Everyone lined up to prepare for a group attack, with those who had strong defense acting as meat shields in front.

Its main responsibility is close combat, preventing the enemy from breaking up the formation.

The others prepared their killing moves and were ready to launch a ranged attack.

Let's try to cripple the treacherous emperor in the first wave of attacks, then it will be easier to fight afterwards.

Of course, I'm referring to those who are at the highest level; don't get too close to breaking through to the sixth or seventh level.

I don't expect you to deal a lot of damage. Just try to harass us with the characteristics of the Great Dao. Use anything that can increase negative status effects, such as slowing, freezing, or paralysis.

Especially for the Six Heavenly Kings, your direct attacks might not be able to break through their defenses. Try to make the most of the characteristics of the Origin Dao. If those characteristics are not suitable for attacking, then use the power of the Great Dao to interfere.

"To summarize, those who break through level eight are responsible for strong attacks in the front row, those who break through level seven are responsible for supporting the attack in the middle, and those who break through level six are responsible for long-range harassment in the rear."

"Everyone, please form groups according to your abilities and stand in line. We'll then proceed with the detailed arrangements."

Hearing Zhang Haoran's initial arrangements, many of the top-tier players who had broken through to the sixth or seventh level breathed a sigh of relief.

Keep in mind that their enemy is an emperor, who has descended to the mortal realm in his true form. Sending them to face him head-on would be far too risky.

Even if the plan goes smoothly and successfully seals 40% of the treacherous Emperor Ji's strength, the amount of blood energy he can unleash is still more than 50 million calories.

The Qi and Blood of the Six Heavenly Kings is only 500 to 1000 million calories.

The treacherous emperor's vital energy is 5 to 10 times that of them, so it's not just a matter of crushing them, but an absolute instant kill.

A single, casual strike could reduce them to a bloody mist, beyond repair even with life essence and immortal matter.

Moreover, facing such absolute power, no defensive measures are effective.
Even if they possessed divine artifacts, they couldn't withstand such an attack and would be killed by the shockwave.

Even divine artifacts are not omnipotent. To unleash their full power, one needs sufficient vital energy. Otherwise, so many divine artifacts wouldn't have been destroyed during the great war.

At this moment, Tengu and the Spring Guardian flew over, their eyes filled with burning light. These two were fearless and eager to fight the Emperor.

Even from a distance, the Heavenly Dog barked excitedly, "Woof woof woof! Fang Ping! This Emperor is here!"

The next moment, the celestial dog transformed into a golden light and pounced on Fang Ping's side, saying, "How are we going to fight? You're not thinking of swarming in and ganging up on him, are you?!"
"The Emperor is very strong. If he unleashes his full power, a few ultimate moves will kill or injure a large number of people here."

Fang Ping smiled awkwardly and said, "Senior Heavenly Emperor! My senior brother Zhang is in charge of commanding this battle. You just need to follow the instructions."

Fang Ping understood the Heavenly Dog's personality well; he knew that it wouldn't even obey the Emperor's orders, so it certainly wouldn't be willing to be commanded by others.

So he quickly explained, "My senior brother Zhang is a swordsman with extremely keen senses, and he can quickly adjust his tactics when encountering unexpected situations."

Moreover, his strength is top-tier.

"It's him!"

Tengu looked at Zhang Haoran with a puzzled expression and said, "His strength is not bad. He broke through two void gates, but to say that he is the best would be a bit of an exaggeration."

"I think his vitality is even worse than Old Man Li's."

The Heavenly King hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Heavenly Dog, if you are not convinced, go and test me yourself. Don't bring me into this."

"My vital energy is indeed higher than his, but my actual combat strength is still somewhat inferior."

The Heavenly King had personally witnessed Zhang Haoran break through the Void Gate and was quite familiar with his combat strength.

With the enhancement of swordsmanship, his attack power is definitely no weaker than mine, plus that disgusting sword technique that cuts the heart, I'll definitely suffer if we really fight.

Zhang Haoran looked at Tiangou and Shipo with a half-smile, his sword intent surging. He knew that many people would be dissatisfied with his command of the battle, so he would first use these two to establish his authority.

In the Heavenly Court era, both Tiangou and Shipo were the kind of people that were hated by gods and ghosts. It was most appropriate to use them to establish authority. Everyone would only feel that they deserved it, and would not feel any sense of sympathy for the fallen.

Zhang Haoran did not unleash his full power of sword intent, maintaining it at the fifth-tier level. He looked at the Heavenly Dog and said, "Heh, Heavenly Emperor, is it! I know you're not convinced!"
How about this?

I only use one sword!
If you can take this one unscathed, then I'll admit defeat and you can have the position of commander-in-chief.

But if you can't handle it, then you'll have to do whatever I say!

Do you dare accept my challenge?

The tengu was so angry that its eyes were spitting fire.

Trying to injure yourself with just one sword strike? Who do you think you are?
Even if he were just a supreme expert, even a king's attack wouldn't be able to do anything to him.

"Woof woof woof! How arrogant and overestimating yourself! You think you can wound this emperor with a single sword strike?"

boom!
A powerful surge of blood energy erupted, and a projection of the Great Dao appeared in the air. It was an even larger celestial dog. It was truly rare to see such a projection of the Great Dao being its own true form.

"One sword strike it is fine, I want to see..."

However, before Tiangou could finish speaking, Fang Ping flew over and stood between the two of them. He said with a forced smile, "With a great battle imminent, I think we should skip the probing!"

Otherwise, harming anyone would weaken our fighting strength.

Fang Ping winked at Tian Gou and whispered, "Heavenly Emperor, my Senior Brother Zhang is a swordsman. His sword strikes are not so easy to parry."

You've probably heard of swordsmanship that can sever the heart, right?
If you haven't heard of them, take a look at Hongkun, Lizhu, and Xunwang.

You don't want to end up like them, do you?

Fang Ping was actually afraid that Tian Gou would be unreasonable and make trouble if he suffered a loss.

Zhang Haoran might get really angry and fight, and if things escalate, it could really create a feud.

Fang Ping would never do something like turning his friend into an enemy.

At this moment, Tiangou instinctively sensed a crisis. He followed Fang Ping's gaze and found that the auras of Hongkun and the others were somewhat strange.

How should I put it? It's a kind of imperfection in one's realm, giving people a sense of superficiality.

It should be noted that Hongkun and Xunwang are the Eight Ancient Kings, ancient beings who have lived for tens of thousands of years. Regardless of their strength, their realm and combat techniques have long been honed to perfection, and they would never exhibit such a superficial state.

He now understands the true meaning of swordsmanship in severing the heart.

But who is he?

God!

How could I possibly back down in the face of a challenge?
Fang Ping noticed that the Heavenly Dog seemed a little guilty, so he quickly offered a way out, saying, "Heavenly Emperor, even if you win, so what? There are dozens of Heavenly Kings here. Can you arrange tactics for each of them?"

The tengu immediately shook its head like a rattle drum.

"I don't have the time or inclination for that!"

Letting a tengu fight is fine, but it doesn't understand tactics. "Then that's settled, this battle is completely meaningless."

I think you should follow the arrangements first. If you have any complaints, you can bring them up.

The originally unruly Shi Po has remained silent since arriving. At first, he wanted Tengu to take the lead, and then he would make his move when he was no match for him.

After hearing Fang Ping's telepathic message, he gave up the idea of ​​causing trouble, and he was unwilling to bother arranging tactics for everyone.

As he spoke, Fang Ping also gave Zhang Haoran a wink, conveying the message: "Tian Gou is our ally. Even if you want to establish your authority, you'll have to find someone else."

"Alright then, as long as they behave and don't cause trouble."

Zhang Haoran gradually withdrew his sword intent. He looked around and saw that there were quite a few strong people, including eleven supreme experts.

Both the Tengu and the Spring Guardian were experts at the eighth level of the Breakthrough Realm. After absorbing the spiritual energy of Fengtian Island, their strength had not returned to its peak, but it was close.

There are also Hongkun, Fengtiandi, Luantianwang, Zhenhaishi... and then there's my own Zhentianwang and Zhushenshi.

There are ten supreme experts who have followed the Path of Origin, and with Tianbi, there are a total of eleven supreme experts who have broken through to the eighth level. This is already a very terrifying force.

Furthermore, there are dozens of players who have broken through to level six and level seven to assist in the battle.

There were quite a few Seven Heavenly Kings, including Qian King, Li Zhu, Hong Yu, Fang Ping, Zhang Tao, Mo Wenjian, and several others, including Dui King who were forcibly dragged onto the pirate ship.

If so many Heavenly Kings still can't defeat a single Emperor, then everyone should give up. No matter what kind of schemes the Emperors have, they are powerless to resist.

Zhang Haoran looked at the Heavenly Dog and the Spring Guardian, and said with a serious expression, "Since you have no objections, I will command this operation, and everyone must obey orders."

Both of you are very strong and have almost recovered to your peak condition, so let's fight as the main force together.

I don't know much about Senior Shi's situation. If you are good at defense, you can be a meat shield in the first row and be responsible for melee interception when the treacherous emperor charges in.

If you're better at attacking, then stand in the second row and launch ranged attacks; this is the main attacking position responsible for delivering full damage.

"Of course, you two are both top-tier among the strongest, so you'll have to step in when the first row can't hold on."

Shi Po said arrogantly, "Of course I'm standing in the second row. What's the point of just coming here to beat people up? This time I'm going to give the Human Emperor a good beating and see if he still dares to be so arrogant. Back then, when I was punished to be the guardian of the spring, he didn't even object. I've always remembered that grudge."

Everyone was speechless for a while. You were punished as a guard of the spring for peeping at the Emperor taking a bath, and that was the least you could do. You even blamed others for not pleading for you. What kind of logic is that?

Sure enough, they're both idiots.

"Wang Wang Wang!"

Tengu also said arrogantly, "I, the Emperor, will also be the main attacker. This time, I must take a few pieces of flesh from Ji. I have a deep grudge against him."

He didn't say the specific reason, that would be too embarrassing.

The Heavenly Dog wagged its tail and looked at the God-Forging Envoy, saying, "It's all your fault. You didn't forge a set of divine braces for me back then. Otherwise, I could have fought Ji one-on-one."

The Divine Forger said irritably, "You won't even provide the materials, how am I supposed to forge a divine artifact? Do you expect to get it for free?"

As he spoke, he gave Shi Po a disdainful look, thinking that this guy had gotten a divine artifact from him for free.

Neither of them is any good!

The God-Forging Envoy was now somewhat regretful; he should have stirred things up earlier and let Zhang Haoran give them a good beating.

Zhang Haoran knew that none of them wanted to be beaten up and used as human shields, so he reminded them: "Everyone, don't be careless. The Emperor is not so easy to deal with."

Don't choose your main attacker just for a moment of pleasure; the most important thing is to defeat the treacherous emperor.

Otherwise, we will all be sealed away.

Especially against the Tengu, you shouldn't focus on attacking.

I've heard that your "Eat All Directions Divine Skill" can devour all energy.

Then you'll be responsible for blocking the treacherous emperor's ranged attacks and dealing with the aftermath of the great battle.

This will allow everyone to work with peace of mind.

Although Tengu was somewhat unwilling, he knew that only he could do this.

If others were to directly block the Emperor's attack, they would be severely injured, if not killed.

It's estimated that within just a few rounds of the battle, our side will suffer heavy casualties.

Especially those who have broken through to the sixth or seventh level, if they are hit by a single punch from an emperor, they will die instantly.

The Tengu's Great Devouring Divine Skill can absorb all energy, making it ideal for intercepting ranged attacks and energy aftershocks.

In order to avenge himself against the Human Emperor, he didn't mind following Zhang Haoran's orders. The main reason was that the opponent's sword intent was too sharp, giving the Heavenly Dog a considerable sense of pressure.

In this world, the strong are respected. Whoever is stronger has the final say. He will only obey someone's orders if he is not confident in defeating them.

If Fang Ping had said this, even if he agreed, he would still feel uncomfortable.

Tengu nodded fiercely and said, "No problem, leave the ranged attacks to me."

We guarantee you can output with peace of mind.

But what if the Human Emperor launches a melee attack?
"The emperor's physical body is also extremely powerful; you might not be able to withstand it."

As he said this, the Heavenly Dog shuddered, recalling what had happened back then. At that time, the Azure Cat struck the Heavenly Gong, summoning a hundred Emperors to besiege the Tyrant Emperor.

Tengu also participated in that great battle, and he was one of the main forces.

As a result, his prized physical body was shattered by a single punch from the Overlord Emperor, and even his dog head was almost blown off.

Although the Overlord Emperor is known for his physical strength, the Human Emperor is still an emperor, so his physical strength shouldn't be much worse.

These are not people that even the strongest can confront head-on, but they cannot avoid a direct confrontation either, because if they dodge, they will expose the powerful figures behind them.

Hongkun brandished the World-Destroying Sword in his hand and said, "Let's prepare our ultimate move first. As soon as the Human Emperor appears, we'll launch an attack immediately."

As long as you don't give the other party a chance to get close, everything will be fine.

His ranged attacks were all absorbed by the Tengu, leaving him only able to passively take hits.

The Heavenly King shook his head and said, "Don't underestimate an emperor. Our attacks may not be able to cause much damage to them."

He can withstand several rounds of attacks and still not die.

It's practically impossible to stop them from getting close.

Since none of us can withstand several attacks from the Emperor, we need to discuss how to take turns absorbing the damage.

I have already reached the limit of breaking through the eighth level, and I can still withstand a few attacks without any problem.

"Then I'll take the first hit; we'll switch when I can't hold on any longer."

The fact that the Heavenly King was willing to block the first wave of attacks demonstrates his sincerity and sense of responsibility.

Although he said he couldn't hold out for long and would have to be replaced, everyone still admired him greatly. How many people could dare to go head-to-head with a king in his prime?
