Chapter 39: Luo Hou King's Shock—You Already Killed Him? (16,000 Words)_9
"Can you kill him?" Yao Yuanchun wasn't very adept at formations, he had never been in the military, nor was he familiar with the use of military warships.
"Yes, but it will take time." Zhao Xing said, "In the Flame World, he can't get any supplies and is constantly consuming his primordial energy every moment."
"And our warship can burn for a whole year."
This is the strength of large military equipment.
As long as the Tianxia King dares to come in without support, he will certainly die.
"Brother Yao, I need to operate the formation. The few incoming enemies will be left to you." Zhao Xing said, "There shouldn't be many powerful enemies in Tianxia County."
"No problem." Yao Yuanchun clenched his fist and said, "Leave it to me!"
"Wait, listen to what I have to say..."
The expression on Yao Yuanchun's face suddenly became extremely colorful.
"Yes, I understand."
"Go!"
Zhao Xing then focused all his attention on the Tianxia King in the Flame World.
Killing a sealed king, this is a great opportunity to gain prestige, he must not let him escape.
...
In the Flaming Cage, the Tianxia King stood tall, confident that an army would come to besiege Zhao Xing.
And indeed, as he expected.
Just an hour later, there were movements outside.
"Bang bang bang!"
"Boom boom boom~"
"Who goes there!"
"General!"
"Kill them!"
"..."
The cries of battle outside were earth-shaking, as if tens of thousands appeared at an altitude of ten thousand meters.
"Hahaha, reinforcements are here!" The Tianxia King couldn't help but laugh out loud, "You two little thieves, let the King out quickly!"
"If you are willing to abolish your spells voluntarily, the King might spare your lives!"
"Dream on!" Zhao Xing's voice appeared inside the Flame World, both surprised and angry: "Tianxia King, you damn well incited so many people!"
"Hmph, a wise man submits to circumstances, kid, I see your talent and courage are not bad, why not submit to the King and accomplish big things together!"
"Boom boom boom~"
The violent noise submerged the outside world.
The first day passed in the midst of shouts and cries.
However, the Flame World remained unbreakable.
The second day, the situation became bigger.
The Flame World also began to tremble, as if it might collapse at any moment.
On the third day, the Tianxia King attempted to break out twice.
Yet failed both times.
By this time, the noise outside gradually weakened.
At midnight on the third day, the Tianxia King finally realized something was wrong.
How come after three days, there was thunder but no rain outside?
Two Fourth-Ranks, surely they can't block his hundreds of thousands of troops' rescue?
"Damn, I've fallen for this kid's trap!" The Tianxia King was shocked and angry.
Zhao Xing's move was like boiling the frog with warm water.
By the time the Tianxia King realized it, he had no other choice.
"Nine Dragon War Chariot, explode for me!"
A trace of anger flashed in the Tianxia King's eyes, and the war chariot under his feet suddenly slammed into a part of the Flaming Cage.
Nine coiling dragons erupted with brilliant light.
Upon colliding with the Flaming Cage, it exploded violently.
"Boom~"
A huge opening was blown in the Flame World.
The violent shards of the war chariot, carrying countless beams of light, drifted in all directions.
"Shoo shoo shoo shoo shoo~" Eight Five Elements Warships were heavily damaged in the same collision.
"Go!"
The Tianxia King immediately escaped through the opening with his guards.
Amidst the violent Gang Wind Layer, a dust storm erupted.
Swish, swish, swish, swish, swish, swish, swish, swish~
When the Tianxia King appeared, he was faced with a hundred Zhao Xing, all reaching out their fingers towards him.
Behind one of the Zhao Xing stood the illusion of an elder.
"Heavenly Thunder Finger!"
"What?!" The Tianxia King had no time to dodge, because Zhao Xing was everywhere!
"Five Emperor Dragon Fist! Die!!" The Tianxia King roared, punching at Zhao Xing with all his might, merging his whole being into the fist's shadow, the shadow like a dragon, charging straight at Zhao Xing's true form.
"Zzzzzzzzzz~"
Ninety-eight Heavenly Thunder Fingers, ninety-seven struck the golden fist, leaving a small hole on it.
The last Heavenly Thunder Finger abruptly appeared at the Tianxia King's chest, directly hitting the king himself.
The other ninety-seven were top-level Third Transition Heavenly Thunder Fingers performed by Zhao Xing.
The last one, however, was executed by Tianyang True Monarch.
"Plop~"
A purple ripple spread over the Tianxia King's armor, causing his Five Emperor Dragon Fist to crumble directly.
The second ripple turned black, dispersing the Tianxia King's protective primordial energy, transforming into the power of the Heavenly Thunder Finger itself.
After the two ripples, the purple and black two-color ripples eerily reversed, condensing into a black vortex, rotating through the Tianxia King's chest.
"Bang!"
The Tianxia King's armor remained intact, but his body exploded directly.
Along with the fifteen guards behind him, they shattered as well.
"Whoo~~"
In the Gang Wind Layer, only seven war chariots and a dozen sets of war armor floated.
"Really hard to kill." Zhao Xing looked at the scene, retracting his clones, "He held out for three days and nights, risking it all at the end, still such power."
"Apprentice, after all, he was a Great Zhou King; having such strength is quite normal."
"Tianxia King is proficient in formations, never leaving his fifteen guards, if not for you tricking him into suffering in the Flame World for three days and nights, his combat power would be stronger."
Zhao Xing nodded; there was still a gap between him and a Sealing King.
Although the Ten Thousand Skill Avatar is numerous, its spells are only top-level One Turn, the true form only Third Turn.
One to Three Turns, all are just entry-level top-level skills.
But Tianxia King is definitely a small success in top-level martial skills.
His treasure equipment wasn't inferior, as a Sealing King, having such foundation is quite expected.
"Overall, my ability to kill Tianxia King relied more on Heavenly Time, Earthly Advantage, and human harmony, not my ability to slash a Sealing King." Zhao Xing summarized.
But beside him, Yao Yuanchun didn't think so.
Upon seeing Zhao Xing kill Tianxia King with one move, his eyes widened.
If he initially felt curious about Zhao Xing's strong talent, now Yao Yuanchun was a bit frightened.
"Luring Tianxia King into the formation, then causing a disturbance outside, he calculated Tianxia King's reluctance to immediately explode the Eighth-Order Battle Carriage, giving the opponent hope, making Tianxia King endure for three days and nights, overly consuming his primordial energy."
"Finally breaking out of the formation, he was already prepared, killing with one strike..." Yao Yuanchun shivered unconsciously. "A demon, absolutely a demon, playing a Sealing King like a fiddle."
"Brother Yao, you've worked hard." Zhao Xing approached.
"It's nothing, your honor, I didn't do much." Yao Yuanchun unconsciously straightened, instinctively calling himself an official, treating Zhao Xing as a superior.
Actually, Yao Yuanchun missed one part.
Which was the Nanming Li Fire Formation arranged by Zhao Xing, fundamentally impossible to fully trap Tianxia King, asking Tianxia King whether he recognized the formation beforehand was purely tactical deception.
Making Tianxia King preconceive he couldn't break the formation alone, only by exploding the Eighth-Order Battle Carriage could he escape.
If he had continually attacked the formation, three days and nights would have been enough for him to find a flaw and escape.
After all, there was no formidable Mechanical Master here, just Zhao Xing controlling the Mechanical Array? Mr. Zhao was nothing but a semi-finished master.
Unfortunately, Tianxia King happened to be military-born, well aware of the power of the Li Fire Formation, hardly even attempting during those three days.
"Yao Yuanchun, Li Gan, Zou Yong, Ouyang Zhen, take three ships down, pacify Tianxia County." Zhao Xing ordered. "Identify and differentiate those coerced, if any resist, kill all without mercy."
"Yes!"
After doing all this, Zhao Xing took out the Earth Mirror, and sent a message to Luo Hou King, also updating intelligence from Tianhe Prefecture.
Lest he send additional people over.
...
At high altitude in Dayuan Prefecture.
Luo Hou King, Prince Xin, Prince Anning, were discussing matters in a War Fortress.
Suddenly, Luo Hou King took out the Earth Mirror, seemingly communicating with someone.
Prince Xin and Prince Anning paid it no mind.
But all of a sudden, they saw Luo Hou King's expression was off.
"It's me... Yes, the Tianxia King has rebelled, he is skilled in formations, also possessing high-order treasures, you definitely should not act rashly... What, you've already killed him?"
