Chapter 54
Once he made it into the tactical formation, Zhang Shichao was attacked by flying swords.
“What?!”
Zhang Shichao was given a good scare. To his knowledge, there was no way he would have come into contact with flying swords.
The flying swords were out of control. They were flying everywhere. Nobody’s eyes could follow them.
Suddenly, five flying swords started to attack from different directions.
Zhang Shichao was worth his title of top 500 on the Eternal Flame List. At this crucial moment, he horizontally put his knife at waist height, transformed into a figure of fire, and started to whirl.
A fire pillar soared up. There was a crisp sound when the flying swords hit against it.
However, Jiang Chen had more spiritual weapons than him.
Ning Ping was unable to stay calm. His body tensed up. He shouted at his subordinates, “What are you waiting for? His arrow?”
They finally came to themselves, and took out their bows to shoot, but once their arrows entered the formation, they were struck down by the flying swords.
“Go to hell.” Jiang Chen loosened his fingers. The spiritual arrow dashed out like a running horse.
Ning Ping gnashed his teeth. He put his hands in front of his chest, and, wisely, didn’t run away.
The two were quite close to each other. The flame arrow was travelling at a high speed.
This time the light wall didn’t stop the flame arrow. Ning Ping flew in the air as if a bomb had exploded next to him. When he finally landed, he was already ten-odd yards away.
“Damn!”
However, Ning Ping stood up quickly. His body was covered with dirt and ashes, but he wasn’t injured.
However, his spiritual armor had already turned dark and lost its luster.
“If only I had another arrow,” Jiang Chen thought pitifully.
“Although you are great, you’re still weak when compared to the Black Dragon City. You guys from the Southwind Ridge are nobody!”
“I’ll show you what desperation feels like!”
Ning Ping flew into a rage. He took off his spiritual armor and threw it away. Then he put silver protectors on his hands.
“What…”
Jiang Chen opened his eyes wide. He saw the protectors on Ning Ping’s hands start to grow along his body and turn into silver armor covering his whole body, shinier than the one he had been wearing previously.
What was more important was, this was class-two spiritual armor!
“You want to compete with the Black Dragon City in wealth? How ridiculous!”
After a sneer, Ning Ping walked into the formation directly.
The flying swords hit him, but failed to leave any marks on the spiritual armor.
Usually only powerful people in the Mental Wander State were equipped with such strong spiritual armor.
Since even a youngster like Ning Ping could have one, it was not difficult to imagine how powerful the Black Dragon City was.
“Jiang Chen, you should know that I could have killed you easily, but I didn’t want to waste my energy. You forced me to put on this Silver Dragon Armor. Don’t blame me for that.”
“Ha.” To everyone’s surprise, Jiang Chen didn’t fear him at all. Instead, he started to laugh.
“Why are you laughing?”
Zhang Shichao didn’t understand why he was laughing, nor did Ning Ping.
“This spiritual armor is quite powerful. Almost no one in the Gathering Yuan State could defeat it, and it helps to strengthen your genuine yuan. If a guy in the peak of the late stage of the Gathering Yuan State puts it on, he will even be able to contend with a guy in the beginning of the Mental Wander State for a few seconds. However…” Jiang Chen stopped here and smiled mysteriously.
“However?” Ning Ping was curious to know what he wanted to say.
“Look here.”
Jiang Chen pointed at his legs and said, “Your spiritual armour will be of no use.”
“Won’t it?” Ning Ping pretended he didn’t believe it, but he was actually worried. Could he have some special spiritual weapons on his legs?
“Because, you’ll be extremely clumsy with your spiritual armor. And with the help of my legs, I can… run away!”
Hardly had his voice disappeared when he broke into a run, leaving his tactic pennants behind.
Ning Ping was dumbfounded. He opened his eyes wide and wanted to chase him, but exactly as Jiang Chen said, he couldn’t run with the Silver Dragon Armor on!
At the end of his wits, Ning Ping shouted, “I’ll pay a handsome reward to whoever kills Jiang Chen!”
