Infinite Puzzle City

Chapter 607 Power King
As soon as Xiao Ran had a thought, the green raccoon that was sitting down immediately spun around in mid-air and pounced on the three of them.

"Oh no!! Ghost Master, you go first!"

Seeing that the situation was not good, the brothers Taiyi and Dijun stood in front of Xiao Ran, signaling Guiye to run first.

Ghost Master was already terrified. Without needing any instructions, he took off running.

"kill!"

Taiyi and Dijun drew their broadswords and charged towards Qinghao.

The two large swords, one black and one white, emitted a burst of sword energy with each swing, and combined with the two brothers' movements, they spun like yin and yang fish.

The giant claws of the blue raccoon tore through space, and wisps of blue energy, carrying immense power, exploded outwards.

The two longswords simultaneously glowed with crimson light, and the brothers were filled with murderous intent. Just as the beast's claws pressed down, they slashed out with a yin-yang dual trajectory.

"boom!"

The beast's claws shattered the Yin-Yang sword energy, unleashing a burst of azure light that swept towards the two brothers. The two brothers actually used the recoil to leap into the air. Di Jun's left wrist flicked out seven sword flowers, while Tai Yi's right arm muscles bulged, and the blade, accompanied by a dragon's roar, pierced straight into the eyes of the Azure Badger.

"These two brothers have decent swordsmanship, but... they're still a bit too green."

As a top-tier expert in swordsmanship, Xiao Ran could immediately see the ingenuity of the two brothers' swordsmanship. He was surprised that the two brothers used the same swordsmanship in two completely opposite ways, but at the same time, he immediately saw the drawbacks of it.

Although their swordsmanship was exquisite, they had not truly honed their skills through bloody battles. Too many of their moves were flashy and superfluous.

Although their knife skills were skillful, they lacked the ferocity that knife skills should possess as a dominant force. If they had used swordsmanship, they might have already attained enlightenment. It can only be said that the two brothers chose the wrong path.

Xiao Ran's physical body was unable to move, but at this moment he and the Green Badger were as one. The Green Badger's claws tore through the void, using its claws as blades. With each swing of its claws, patches of green light appeared, as if a large blade was slashing down.

In an instant, the world turned upside down, and the two brothers seemed to fall into an abyss, their sword light twisted and shattered by a huge gravitational force.

At the same time, the blue raccoon raised its head and let out a strange cry, and a large amount of blue light suddenly exploded around the two brothers.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

Amidst a series of rapid explosions, Taiyi and Dijun were struck as if by lightning. Their blood surged, and their faces turned deathly pale, devoid of any color.

"what!!"

The two brothers leaped backward, coughing up blood continuously.

As a 3D-level expert with all attributes exceeding fifty points, and being twins with telepathic abilities, they fought two against one, yet were defeated in a single move.

The stark contrast was even more painful than the blow itself.

Unfortunately, Xiao Ran is kind-hearted; he has only one flaw: he's too soft-hearted.

Seeing the constipated expressions on the two brothers' faces, he didn't give them time to experience the huge difference in their feelings and urged Qinghao to take action again.

"Go quickly!!"

Realizing that they were no match for each other and that the difference in strength was too great to be overcome by attributes alone, Taiyi pushed his younger brother aside, raised his greatsword, and a set of black armor appeared on his body.

The armor was made of an unknown material, and it looked somewhat like an insect's shell. As Taiyi activated the armor, countless thin, blood-red spikes pierced into Taiyi's flesh.

In an instant, the armor rapidly turned from black to red, as if it had come alive. A pair of thin, transparent wings sprouted from its back, and with a gentle flutter, Taiyi's figure transformed into a black lightning bolt in mid-air, striking directly at Xiao Ran on the back of the green raccoon.

"elder brother!"

Upon seeing this, Di Jun's chest heaved, his eyes widened, but he ran off without looking back.

He cannot die yet. As long as he doesn't die, the telepathic connection between the two of them will remain, and his brother can still live on within him. At that time, with the methods of the Changchun Society, he might be able to bring his brother back to life.

"Go to hell!!"

Taiyi appeared in front of Xiao Ran in the blink of an eye, his speed surprising even Xiao Ran.

Faced with the attack from the blue raccoon, Taiyi neither dodged nor evaded, but instead slashed at Xiao Ran with all his might.

He had already realized that this fox-like creature was no match for him, but Xiao Ran, who was sitting on it, couldn't move at all. Only by taking the opportunity to seriously injure it could he give his younger brother a chance to live.

"flutter!!"

The blade flashed a black light, slashing straight at Xiao Ran's chest.

"boom!!"

Xiao Ran's body shuddered, her upper garment burst open, revealing the black dragon scale soft armor underneath. Taiyi's blade was unable to cut into it, completely unable to break through the soft armor on Xiao Ran's chest.

Seeing that his attack had failed, Taiyi hastily swung his sword and slashed at Xiao Ran's other arm.

"puff!"

The knife severed Xiao Ran's left hand, and blood and the severed arm swirled in the air together.

"It's done!!"

Seeing this, Taiyi's eyes lit up, but then the blue raccoon's claws pierced his chest from the other side.

Unexpectedly, when the raccoon's claws pierced Taiyi's body, the sensation was unlike that of a human body; it felt more like a layer of weathered plastic. With a gentle poke from the raccoon, Taiyi was shattered to pieces.

It turns out that the cursed artifact on Taiyi's body can unleash unprecedented potential in a short period of time, but the price is that it will draw blood from the user's body when the user acts.

The stronger the power unleashed, the more blood is drawn. In that instant, Taiyi almost drained all the blood from his body to create this opportunity for the strike.

"So, I've cut off one of your arms? Fine, I've made a profit!"

Looking at Xiao Ran's severed arm, Taiyi's eyes flickered, and a smug smile appeared on his face.

Amputation wounds are almost permanent damage; no medicine can regrow a severed arm. Trading one's own life for the other's arm is enough to give one's younger brother a chance to live.

The next second, Xiao Ran flicked his right finger, and a silver thread shot out from his fingertip. This silver thread, like a swimming dragon, quickly burrowed into the severed arm, and then pulled it back together. In the blink of an eye, the severed arm was reattached.

Xiao Ran moved her arms expressionlessly, tried to clench her fists, and muttered to herself, "Not bad, just a little more painful than I expected."

"this!!"

Seeing this, Taiyi stared wide-eyed in resentment.

The fact that the other party could heal such a devastating wound so instantly, with no trace of the wound even visible under the skin, left Taiyi utterly astonished.

This is precisely the difference between beginners and professionals.

As a thief, even if he were to be cut in half, he could quickly stitch himself back together using the "stitching thread of fate" and his own skills.

The difference between these two is something that someone like Taiyi, who has not become a professional, cannot understand.

"Crack!"

With a gentle squeeze from the green raccoon, Taiyi's physical body exploded into powder.

"What a pity, not even a body was left."

Looking at the fragments floating in mid-air, Xiao Ran couldn't help but feel a little regretful. He was actually quite interested in the swordsmanship displayed by the Taiyi brothers.

Moreover, the corpse of a master like Taiyi is of great value. It's just a pity that for this one strike, Taiyi almost burned all the blood in his body, making his flesh as brittle as a pancake.

After defeating Taiyi, the bridge in front of them had disappeared.

It seems that Pumpkin and his group have successfully entered the sixth floor. Seeing this, Xiao Ran signaled Qinghao to quickly chase after them. If they could take the opportunity to kill Ghost Master and the others, it would be a good choice.

Meanwhile, in front of the Fifth Hospital.

A black minivan slowly pulled up in front of the door.

This is the first time I've ever seen a black van like this in the Lost City.

The car door opened, and a middle-aged man with a square face got off.

When the 48-yard foot landed, the van could be clearly seen bouncing back a few centimeters.

Riki stood up straight, his height of 2.3 meters making even the van behind him appear shorter than him. In addition to his height, Riki also had exceptionally broad shoulders and a robust, well-proportioned physique. His custom-made black trench coat exuded an imposing aura.

"keep the change."

He took out a 100-yuan note from his pocket and handed it to the driver. Then, Li Wang strode straight toward the hospital gate in front of him.

When he saw that the security guards responsible for guarding the gate had disappeared, Li Wang's face immediately turned even uglier.

Just as he was about to quicken his pace to go inside, a figure blocked his way at the door.

"Brother Li, it's been a long time."

Li Wang slowed his pace, frowned, and looked over. He saw Taurus leaning against the door, arms crossed, staring at him.

Looking at the golden bull in front of him, Riki-Oh showed no joy whatsoever.

He snorted coldly: "Stop talking nonsense, who exactly are you!"

"I'm a Taurus? Brother Li, how come you don't even recognize your good brother?"

Taurus said with a look of surprise.

But at this moment, Li Wang had no time to argue with him. He had already calculated before coming here and could not predict the fates of the three: Taurus, Rat, and Dragon.

Generally speaking, there are only two reasons why you can't predict the person's identity: either your skills are not good enough, or the other person is already dead.

Riki-Oh was very confident in his divination skills, so he was certain that the golden bull in front of him was definitely fake.

With that, Li Wang leaped forward and appeared in front of Taurus: "What monster are you? Show yourself!"

As he spoke, that enormous hand, with the power to move mountains and split seas, slammed down towards the golden bull.

A savage, murderous glint flashed in Taurus's eyes, and the faint golden crow mark between his brows quickly faded. A monstrous demonic aura surged from his body, and he grinned, revealing a set of white teeth, and laughed, "Kid, if you don't acknowledge me as your brother, then you might as well become a dead man..."
