Infinite Horror: The Strongest Zhongzhou Team

Now Chen Zilong and Xiao Honglu are both wearing the same outfit, one red and one blue.

The two earrings were exactly the same as the combined earrings that Neos and the others had just used.

Upon seeing this scene, Zhao Zhuikong's first thought was that it was impossible.

He had also searched for similar items in the God's Space.

The combined earrings have a twelve-hour cooldown period, making it impossible to use them continuously due to their incredible effect.

But then Zhao Zhuikong realized that this was a magical world.

The original work features a time-change device that defies common sense.

Given the capabilities of these four main god squads, it's not impossible for them to find a time-limited item that can bypass the earring's side effects.

The two Zhao Zhuikongs, who understood what was going on, rushed out almost simultaneously.

The target was accurate; it was Chen Zilong, who was already wearing an earring.

Although he didn't understand why the most powerful Zheng Zha wouldn't combine with the other Chen Zilong.

Instead, he had a veteran of this cultivation enhancement system use the earrings with Chen Zilong, but that didn't stop him from taking direct action.

Just as Zheng Zha said, if there were one more expert at this level, even he would have to put in a lot of effort.

Saw this scene.

Zheng Zha, who was at the very front, unlocked the third-stage gene lock without hesitation and entered the destruction mode!
Even without reaching the fourth tier, this is his strongest state right now.

"Stop him, buy some time!"

As soon as Zheng Zha finished speaking, Neos Honda on the side also started to move.

Two figures of Zhao Zhuikong swept across the battlefield like ghosts.

The dagger in his hand drew a white arc, heading straight forward.

His movements were so fast they almost tore through the air, leaving only blurry afterimages.

In Destruction Mode, Zheng Zha's muscles instantly swelled.

The Snow Drinking Blade, wreathed in blood flames, slashed at one of Zhao Zhuikong's targets with even greater speed.

As it turns out, Zheng Zha, even in his destroyed state, already possessed the ability to confront Zhao Zhuikong.

The moment the two forces collided, space seemed to be torn apart, and the shockwaves ripped spiderweb-like cracks into the surrounding ground.

In comparison, the black figure next to him looked rather disheveled.

However, with its versatile venom and near-perfect defense, it can be said that the enhancement itself is designed to target assassin-type powerhouses like Zhao Zhuikong.

However, as time went by, they faced a level four enemy in a one-on-one situation.

Even with their full firepower, they still found it extremely difficult to hold off the enemy.

If it weren't for the support of Zhan Lan and Gunnir, the two would have been lying on the ground waiting to die long ago.

But it didn't take long.

They achieved their goal.

A familiar, blinding white light appeared again in this space from behind.

Something was churning within the blindingly bright white light.

That's the time.

A profound and poignant voice echoed softly:
"It's like swallowing a golden pill; my fate is now in my own hands, not in the heavens..."

At that moment, the Ironclad Soldier standing on the ground seemed to sense something.

It started shaking uncontrollably.

The entire stick trembled precariously until finally a hand emerged from the white light.

The long staff shot out, but was caught in one go!
"The true and wondrous secret of the perfect integration of exoteric and esoteric teachings lies solely in cultivating one's nature and life force..."

"Truly worthy of being called a secret technique of immortals!"

The white light disappears.

An ordinary young man with his eyes closed appeared at the very back of everyone.

Apart from the deer spirit mark on its forehead that radiates seven-colored light, this figure is otherwise completely unremarkable.

But that's it.

Gunnir, Richard, and Kanna Hashimoto—I don't know why, but I always have this feeling that they're being looked right through.

But they couldn't find out who was watching them.

Then, they focused their attention on the battle in the center.

Because of this unremarkable figure, he slowly walked towards the very center of the battlefield, twirling the light, weightless staff in his hand.

The first step was to take half a meter, which is the distance a normal person should have.

The second step was that the person appeared five meters away.

The five meters in the middle seemed to disappear into the real world as if the screen were flickering.

If this is nothing...

The third step.

Chen Zilong's figure paused again.

One of them, Zhao Zhuikong, was sent flying backwards and, with a loud bang, embedded himself into the stone wall at the very back.

It was that long, intricately patterned staff that knocked him away.

Neos Honda stared at the blurry figure approaching in front of him, and at the enemy who had inexplicably vanished.

He was momentarily stunned.

Because he discovered that the combined entity of the Zhongzhou team seemed to be much stronger than their two captains.

However, they quickly realized that the other party was not two people, but three.

Besides the combined form, the deer spirit phantom that can cast magic on the mirror is the third veteran.

Even so, it's already quite astonishing.

It's important to know that they are both captains of their respective teams and are undoubtedly the strongest.

The combined strength of these three members of the Zhongzhou team was actually able to fight against a powerful individual who had unlocked the fourth-tier gene lock.

Although this fourth-tier opponent was severely injured, he should not be underestimated.

Neos Honda was surprised, but he reacted quickly.

They immediately turned around and joined Zheng Zha in attacking another Zhao Zhuikong.

this moment.

Richard and Kanna Hashimoto both looked surprised as they watched the scene unfold, which was completely different from what they had envisioned in the future.

They were surprised by the changes in the future, and also by the power of this seemingly ordinary young man after the combination.

They could tell that this person hadn't unlocked any of their genetic potential.

But this is enough to fight one of Zhao Zhuikongs to a draw or even suppress him!

Before the Mirror of Eris.

With his short sword held in a reverse grip, Zhao Zhuikong bent down and swung it, leaving a sharp mark that went deep into the ground on the stone slab.

After this attempt failed, the second and third attempts followed immediately.

It almost covered all directions that Chen Zilong could move in.

Upon seeing this, a cloud-like mist appeared out of thin air beneath Chen Zilong's feet.

The moment he stepped onto the white clouds, his figure had already turned into a blur.

He actually used a supernatural ability that allowed him to fly through the clouds.

A hundred meters away.

Zhao Zhuikong's figure vanished.

Two figures crossed paths in mid-air.

After turning around.

In an instant, the iron rod of the Sui Xin suddenly extended.

It stabbed horizontally towards Zhao Zhuikong's side and abdomen.

As if he had predicted it, Zhao Zhuikong, with his back turned, thrust his short sword horizontally.

The two weapons clashed with a piercing clang, and Zhao Zhuikong was sent flying backward once again.

It is obvious that the difference in strength between the two is significant this time.

After the attack, Chen Zilong's feet struck a white cloud.

Both disappeared simultaneously.

In an instant, he caught up with Zhao Zhuikong, who had just flown out.

He chopped downwards with the long stick in his hand.

Bang!
The figure of Zhao Zhuikong, struck by the attack, shattered into fragments and then exploded violently. Chen Zilong, witnessing this, was not surprised at all.

Above the white clouds, eyes that had been tightly closed suddenly opened.

A golden light shone from his eyes.

This eerie gaze actually emitted a soft sound in the air.

At the same time, the iron rod in his hand surged again, and he thrust it forward in a certain direction.

A figure darted through the shadows of the wreckage, narrowly avoiding the attack.

Once Zhao Zhuikong regained his footing, the two looked up at each other in unison and charged at each other.

But before Zhao Zhuikong could use his next move.

A layer of ice crystals bulged from the ground like a giant beast opening its mouth.

A talisman gleaming with an earthy yellow light flew out from the ice-blue mouth.

Before Zhao Zhuikong could react, she pressed herself against him.

Others might not be able to decipher the characters on the talisman, but Chen Zilong could.

An ancient concept of "fixation"!
The "fixation" in "fixation charm".

At the same time, the blue and white ice crystal mouth sprayed out countless blasts of cold air, directly trapping Zhao Zhuikong inside.

The extreme cold, combined with the immobilization talisman, instantly froze Zhao Zhuikong, who was rushing forward, in place.

Chen Zilong, upon witnessing this scene, acted without hesitation, seemingly having been prepared.

Holding the stick with both hands, he stretched his body into a semi-circle to gather strength before slashing down from above.

this moment.

The whooshing sound from the tip of the stick stirred everything in the entire underground space.

The golden headband on the head of the Ironclad Soldier began to vibrate wildly, as if it had taken a super tonic.

The sound of the bells was so loud it sounded like a loudspeaker.

The stick moves with the sound.

This powerful attack, which had attracted the attention of most people, began to slow down in the eyes of Zhao Zhuikong and Chen Zilong.

Zhao Zhuikong, who was instantly frozen and immobilized, suddenly turned his gaze.

That layer of transparent, solid ice, along with a one-time use talisman, lasted for less than a third of a second against a fourth-tier gene lock expert.

However, this slowed-down time is actually a very long time.

The long staff, wielded with incredible power, drew ever closer to Zhao Zhuikong.

The force at the tip of the stick tore through the air, and Zhao Zhuikong's pupils constricted upon seeing this!
The cracks in the ice crystals spread like a spider web.

"Crack!"

The moment the yellow light on the immobilization talisman vanished, the short sword slashed upwards, forcefully clashing with the falling golden hoop!

"clang--!!!"

The shockwave visibly exploded, and the supporting stone pillars closest to the two collapsed into rubble.

Zhao Zhuikong's lower body was stuck deep in the rock, and his right arm holding the sword was twisted strangely.

Even so, this person still managed to withstand the fatal attack.

He then used the momentum to retreat three zhang, but at the same time, blood foam spilled from the corner of his mouth.

He watched the figure retract the long staff and murmured:
"interesting…"

Zhao Zhuikong licked the blood from his lips, and his figure suddenly split into seven afterimages.

"Your blow was even more devastating than Chu Xuan's scheme!"

Chen Zilong strode through the clouds, golden light swirling in his eyes.

The iron sword in his hand hummed as it retracted to eyebrow length, and he said softly:

"It's no surprise that the immobilization talisman couldn't suppress a fourth-tier opponent."

As they spoke, the dark golden staff suddenly vanished.

The Ironclad Soldier flew out on its own.

Along with the shadow of the golden cudgel, Zhao Zhuikong's twisted right arm also fell.

It coiled around the stick like a soft snake.

At the same time, the short sword was used as leverage to shoot out and thrust back towards Chen Zilong's throat.

And at close range.

In a corner unseen by Zhao Zhuikong, a dark golden fragment began to melt, then solidified and suddenly began to surge in size.

A dark gold spear pierced through Zhao Zhuikong's heart.

But Chen Zilong soon realized that something was wrong with his touch.

It was as if the Zhao Zhuikong he was facing at that moment was just a phantom.

Golden light swirled in Chen Zilong's pupils, and the spear in his hand transformed once more, thrusting straight towards the space on the other side.

This time, we finally received feedback.

Almost at the same time.

Two Zhao Zhuikongs appeared beside Chen Zilong, and this was just the beginning.

In the blink of an eye, the two figures split apart again.

A few seconds later, Chen Zilong was facing eight identical Zhao Zhuikongs.

This bizarre change didn't only occur on Chen Zilong's side.

The same applies to Zheng Zha and Neos Honda.

“Mirror image, this is the enhancement ability that I think is most suitable for assassination.”

"Zheng Zha, the three of you are indeed very strong, but you still don't understand what 'entering the microscopic' means!"

He said these words.

Dozens of Zhao Zhuikongs suddenly gathered together.

He stood around the three people.

They simultaneously raised their hands and inexplicably started waving their fingers.

At that very moment, not only the three of them, but also Richard, Kanna Hashimoto, and Zhan Lan, who had been watching from the sidelines, felt a sudden tremor.

The three, all seasoned veterans, reacted quickly.

Kanna Hashimoto suddenly leaped up from the ground, revealing a silver Saint Cloth that accentuated her beautiful figure.

Zhan Lan was completely enveloped by the nanotech mech that Mos had transformed into.

As for Richard, he now wore a full suit of classic Western knight armor and charged towards the center.

The armor this person is wearing looks somewhat similar to Hashimoto's Saint Cloth, but it appears much more antique.

At that moment, Chen Zilong and Zheng Zha stopped in their tracks.

They discovered that as Zhao Zhuikong moved his fingers, numerous tiny, almost invisible scratches appeared throughout the underground palace.

Immediately afterwards, the steps at the entrance and the surrounding stone pillars gently split apart, and the cracks were frighteningly smooth.

Everyone's eyes narrowed sharply upon seeing this.

Chen Zilong, who had been expressionless, could no longer bear to see this.

Standing on the white clouds, he began to hurl insults:

"Damn it, we agreed to a one-on-one fight, and now they're launching a full-map attack?"

"No, no, he wanted to..."

Zhu Wen's voice suddenly rang in Chen Zilong's mind, but before she could finish speaking...

A head, spraying blood, shot into the sky.

The broken edge of the armor on his head was as smooth and flat as the stone pillar he had just seen.

The person Zhao Zhuikong killed instantly was none other than Richard, who hadn't made a move from beginning to end.

Everyone who witnessed this scene was horrified.

Because most people present didn't even know what the result of this person's enhancement was, and now he suddenly died.

Chen Zilong only wanted to say one thing: sometimes you shouldn't pretend to be weak to fool others, because if you do it for too long, you might actually become a weakling.

Take Richard, for example, right now.

The flying head still bore the same expression as before, as if it had never imagined it would die.

And it is precisely this kind of veteran who is highly regarded by the Nan Yan Zhou team.

Chen Zilong and Zhu Wen believed that this person must possess some kind of power that could target Zhao Zhuikong. (End of Chapter)
