Traveling across the globe for the first time

Chapter 951 Comrades
The King of Zhentian volunteered to take the lead, which surprised everyone and earned their admiration.

It's important to understand that the first wave of attacks is the hardest to withstand. They don't know how strong the Emperor is, what his battle tactics are, or what methods and killing moves he's good at. Everything is unknown, and this is when the danger is greatest.

If the first wave of attacks can be blocked, the others can adjust according to the situation on the field, and the risk will be greatly reduced.

As expected of the incredibly mysterious King Zhentian, who can fight any enemy to a standstill, everyone would admire him even more if he could also fight the Human Emperor Ji to a standstill.

The Heavenly King didn't want to take the lead, but he had no choice. This battle was led by the human world, and Zhang Haoran was the commander-in-chief. As the guardian deity of the human world, he naturally had to do his utmost.

However, he did not forget his allies.

The Heavenly King turned to look at the God-Forging Envoy and said meaningfully, "Forge! I heard that you have replaced all your bones with divine artifacts. You should be able to withstand a few waves of attacks, right?"
Why don't you take charge of intercepting the second wave?

When I can't hold on any longer, it'll be your turn.

As he spoke, he winked at the God-Forging Envoy, signaling him to agree.

He wasn't trying to trick his friend.
The more you put in, the greater the reward. The Heavenly King felt that the chances of victory this time were not small, and this was an opportunity for the God-Forging Envoy to make a name for himself.

As long as he withstands the Emperor's second wave of attacks, he will reap considerable rewards when the spoils are distributed according to merit after defeating the Human Emperor.

The Heavenly King is an incredibly ancient figure who has lived since the early days of martial arts.

They have a very clear understanding of the current situation.

He knew that defeating Emperor Ji would be no problem; the other party would even deliberately hold back, letting the people of the Three Realms beat him up to vent their anger.

However, killing him is impossible!

The purpose of the emperors in cultivating strong individuals is to have more people bear the pressure of the source land. Of course, there are also insidious people who want to kill them to fill the pit.

They would never allow Ji's power to be taken away by people from the Three Realms.

When the crucial moment arrives, a powerful emperor will surely step in to mediate, offering sufficient benefits to quell the anger of the powerful beings in the three realms.

Those who put in more effort at that time would naturally receive greater benefits.

When the God-Forging Envoy saw the look in the eyes of the Heavenly King, he knew that the other party was not trying to trick him.

They were willing to take the first wave of attacks, which showed enough sincerity. He was just a substitute and the risk was not high.

Moreover, since he's already been called out, he can no longer hide.

The Forging Master shook his head and sighed, "Alas! I am a weapon refiner, a technically skilled talent!"

Now you want to use them as meat shields? You guys really know how to use people.

Alright, since we've joined the war, we should do our part. I'll take the brunt of this second wave of attacks!

However, let me state this beforehand.

"I can't hold out much longer either. You'll need to find someone to relieve me, otherwise even the divine artifact's bones will be shattered."

As the saying goes, how much power a divine artifact can unleash depends on how much life force it possesses. The fact that the God-Forging Envoy could withstand a direct attack from an Emperor for a period of time is already quite remarkable.

"Hahaha!"

Tianbi laughed loudly and said, "Everyone, don't worry. If the treacherous emperor dares to withstand our attacks and approach, I will be the first to intercept him. Before these two iron arms are shattered, I will absolutely not let him get any closer. You can attack with peace of mind."

"I've fought emperors before; breaking these iron arms of mine won't be so easy."

Unlike the Heavenly King, Tianbi didn't know many inside stories. He was willing to be the first to step up, purely out of a sense of public duty.

They were only united because of the pressure from the emperor, and there was not much trust between them. So, the novice warriors took the lead, and the others could put down their unnecessary guard.

Moreover, what he said was true. Even the more powerful Donghuang back then couldn't kill him. He should be able to withstand the Human Emperor's era for a while.

Tianbi inherited the lineage of the Overlord Emperor, possessing an incredibly strong physical body, and his iron arms were as hard as diamond.

Even an emperor would have to expend considerable effort to break it.

Besides, even if his arm is shattered, it's not impossible to recover. As a supreme expert who survived from the early days of martial arts, he has no shortage of rare and precious materials for recovery.

Besides, there are eleven supreme experts here. It's impossible to let him carry the load alone. We can fight for a while first, and then replace him immediately when he can't keep up.

Let him hide in the back to recover, and then take the lead again when he's fully recovered. Repeat this process, and delaying the situation for a while shouldn't be a problem.

The battle between the Origin and the Initial Martial Realm back then was a blood feud that truly erupted. In order to kill the Human Emperor's Chronicle, the Heavenly Arm was willing to go all out.

Let alone just being the vanguard, he could easily self-destruct at a crucial moment.

This undoubtedly demonstrates great sincerity.

It's something everyone wants to see when a novice martial artist is willing to fight desperately, and their previous wariness has lessened somewhat.

Zhenhai Envoy thought that since even those at the beginner level had expressed their opinions, those at the Origin level should not show weakness.

After all, they were the ones who initiated this battle, so he stepped forward and said in a deep voice, "Although my strength is not as good as yours, and I have only broken through one of the void gates, my defense is no worse than anyone else's."

I can serve as a substitute and hold the line for a while when the Heavenly Arm God can no longer stop me.

"Of course, my strength is limited, you will need to arrange for a replacement."

He said those words only after he had a lot of nerves.

The Sea Guardian's true form is a demonic beast, renowned for its powerful physique. If the Human Emperor doesn't unleash his ultimate move, killing the Sea Guardian will be no easy task.

However, the demon beast is only strong in physical body, but not in blood and qi. It cannot fight against the emperor head-on. To put it bluntly, it can only take a beating and cannot cause much damage to the other party. It relies on its life force, which is much larger than that of humans, to hold on. It is really selling its blood!
Although the Sea Guardian stepped forward, he left himself a lot of room for maneuver in his words, unlike Tianbi who was so bold.

This means that it's fine to have him as a secondary tank, but his abilities are limited, and someone needs to replace him.

Although he said it without much confidence, everyone still admired him. Anyone who dares to go head-to-head with the emperor is a warrior.

There are now four supreme experts who are willing to step forward and directly resist the emperor's attack.

Although it's less than half, it's almost enough.

The Chaotic King said somewhat dejectedly, "It's a pity that my strength hasn't recovered."

Otherwise, my Chaos Domain can transfer damage, and I can also confront the treacherous emperor head-on.

Lao Tzu really wanted to have a real, hand-to-hand fight with the Emperor, but unfortunately, that opportunity is gone.

As he spoke, Chaos King glared fiercely at Hongkun and Dui King. If he hadn't perished back then, his strength would definitely be even greater now, and he would absolutely be able to go toe-to-toe with an emperor.

The Chaotic King has only recovered to the initial stage of breaking through the eighth level, and his health is only slightly over 20 million. He would be killed if he were to fight head-on.

Being a meat shield doesn't mean you can only defend. Because they are physically strong and not in mortal danger, they charge to the front lines.

Attack is always the best defense; you might call yourself a meat shield, but you're actually in close combat with the enemy.

Upon hearing this, the Commander of Troops sighed and shook his head helplessly. His condition was worse than that of the Chaotic Heavenly King. At least the Chaotic Heavenly King had recovered for a month, while he had only just recovered, his strength barely restored to the level of a supreme expert. As the saying goes, the deeper the love, the deeper the hate. The more he admired the emperors back then, the more he hated them now.

The Commander of the Army really wants to have a big battle with the Emperor, beat him half to death, and then ask him why he destroyed the Heavenly Court back then.

Unfortunately, though he was determined to kill the traitors, he was powerless to reverse the situation.

The commander of troops has a very awkward personality. In the original work, he is very unreasonable and often finds various reasons to cause trouble for Fang Ping.

That's because although Fang Ping's methods were ruthless, his own strength was lacking, and he failed to give the commander of the troops any hope.

The Heavenly King has the ability to suppress the military commander, but he will not take drastic measures because of their past friendship.

To put it bluntly, there was no one who could completely subdue him.

But the situation is different now.

Zhang Haoran rose to power with overwhelming force, and not just any kind of overwhelming force. Unlike Fang Ping and Zhang Tao, he didn't consider the big picture. If he thought you were an enemy and could be killed, he would not hesitate to strike ruthlessly.

It was precisely because the commander of the troops had seen this that he hesitated to revive them.

Some people can only be made to settle down and stop wavering when they are completely subdued.

The Commander of the Army now really wants to teach the Human Emperor a lesson in person. The scene of the Heavenly Realm falling before his eyes back then has become a mental demon that he cannot break through, otherwise his strength will stagnate.

Unfortunately, his current strength has only recovered to the initial stage of breaking through the eighth level, which is not much stronger than those who have broken through the seventh level. He can only play a minor role in the second tier.

Seeing the unwillingness of the Commander of Soldiers and the Chaotic King, Zhang Haoran's eyes suddenly lit up. The reason they couldn't return to their peak condition was simply because they lacked energy, which he had!
And there's as much as you want.

He immediately threw out two bottles of pills. These were not pills confiscated from Hong Kun. Pills in this world focus on their properties. They are made from life essence or various energy fruits and are mainly used to heal various injuries. The energy they contain is actually not much.

The Commander of Soldiers and the King of Chaos were not injured, as they were not due to insufficient energy after their recent recovery. Therefore, the pills were not of much help to them.

The two bottles Zhang Haoran threw out were Vitality Pills, the same kind of pills that replenished the energy of the Zhen Tian King's initial martial body.

This elixir is composed of pure energy, has a mild medicinal effect, has no attributes, can be absorbed quickly, and does not even require refining.

The Heavenly King had warned him not to reveal the Vitality Pill, otherwise it might cause him a lot of trouble.

Because if there are enough of these pills, then when people are proving their Dao, they will no longer need to hunt down novice martial artists.

Then the Martial Continent would have no reason to exist and might be wiped out by the Emperor.

However, he was about to face the Emperor, so he couldn't worry about that now.

Besides, even if people find out, so what? Let them come and rob us if they dare. He's worried about not having a place to harvest the Origin Dao.

Both the Chaotic Heavenly King and the Sea-Suppressing Envoy accepted the jade bottle with puzzled expressions. They were not injured, but rather lacked energy.

"Would it be of any use to give us pills now? Refining pills takes a lot of time, I'm afraid it won't be enough time."

The Tengu and the Spring Guardian had just recovered, but they relied on the spiritual energy of Fengtian Island to recover. It should be noted that Fengtian Island has many giant mineral veins, and they could only barely recover after absorbing all of them.

How much energy can these two bottles of pills replenish?

Zhang Haoran said arrogantly, "Since I've taken it out, it's definitely going to work. If you don't believe me, try one and you'll see!"

The commander was completely convinced and, without saying a word, poured out a pill and threw it into his mouth.

The pill melts instantly upon entering the mouth, and a massive amount of energy immediately spreads throughout the body.

"boom!"

With a powerful burst of energy, the aura emanating from the weapon master began to rise steadily.

Everyone's eyes showed shock. What was this thing? Was it a magic pill?
The effect is amazing! It works instantly!

Even elixirs need time to be refined!

The moment the soldier swallowed the pill, his aura began to rise, indicating that the pill did not need to be refined and could be converted into his own energy.

Upon seeing the role model, the Chaotic King's eyes lit up with excitement, and he immediately took out a pill and swallowed it.

The next moment, he revealed an extremely comfortable expression.

"Holy crap, this is a divine pill! It's amazing!"

The aura emanating from the Chaotic King also began to rise rapidly, and a scene of spatial dislocation and upside-down heaven and earth appeared around him.

This was clearly intentional; due to excessive excitement, the Chaotic Heavenly King failed to restrain his power of the Great Dao.

"Hahaha! I'm back again, you treacherous emperor, come and get a beating."

The Chaotic King laughed wildly with excitement. The energy in this pill was extremely pure and did not need to be refined. As long as it circulated within his body, it could be transformed into his own blood and qi.

Moreover, the energy contained within is enormous; a single pill is equivalent to several giant mineral veins.

Zhang Haoran smiled without saying a word. This was a Vitality Pill, specially made to replenish the spiritual energy of cultivators.

Cultivators do not have a source of energy to replenish at any time, so the magical power within their bodies is much greater than the blood and qi of martial artists.

The surrounding crowd watched with envy, and the Heavenly Dog couldn't help but bark first, "Woof woof woof, Sword Master, I haven't fully recovered yet, do you still have any of those pills? Give me a few."

The spring guardian joined in the fun, excitedly saying, "Yes, give me a few too. Once I've fully recovered my strength, I'll definitely beat the treacherous Emperor Ji so badly he won't even recognize his own mother."

Shi Po was never a good person; he always swore.

Despite the seemingly strong strength of Shi Po and Tian Gou, they haven't actually recovered to their peak condition. They've only just recovered to the point of breaking through two void gates. Their true strength is at the peak of the eighth level of the Breaking Eight Realms.

The fact that the Heavenly Dog dared to challenge the third Void Gate shows that his strength has reached the limit of breaking through the eighth level.

Zhang Haoran threw out two more bottles of pills. Anyway, these things were cheap, so he wouldn't mind giving out more.

The spring keeper excitedly caught it, poured out a pill, and immediately swallowed it.

"Ouch!"

The tengu was even more direct, opening its huge mouth and swallowing the bottle whole.

Seeing this, Zhang Haoran secretly felt lucky. Fortunately, thanks to the reminder from the Heavenly King, there were only two pills in the jade bottle.

Otherwise, if he swallowed the whole bottle, wouldn't he choke to death?

Soon, the strength of the Tengu and the Spring Guardian also began to increase, or more accurately, to recover.

After a slight hesitation, Zhang Haoran took out another bottle of pills and tossed it to Hongyu. After all, they were now on the same team, and they couldn't show favoritism or treat each other differently, as that would be detrimental to unity.

No matter what the future holds, we are comrades-in-arms now!
