The twin brothers who were blocking the other end of the street looked at each other and silently retreated to the side.
On the street, as the voices of Kong Ju and the other three fell, the atmosphere became solemn.
The residents who were watching the incident moved away from the scene, leaving the large street empty.
On the other side, the imperial city defenders at Xuanwu Gate had already activated a formation on the city wall to protect the surrounding streets, so that all the buildings except the streets were covered with a layer of light golden barrier.
The handsome young man in the crowd chose an area closest to the fighting area, stood inside the barrier, and lightly touched the golden barrier with his fingers, smiling: "How could the Eternal Imperial City not have any means of protection? This defensive formation is activated, even if the great master Zhang Sheng comes, he can't break it."
Kong Ju silently looked at the defensive formations rising up on both sides of the street. The pale golden color made his cheeks turn yellow.
The formation's rise proved that the four imperial guards had already greeted the imperial city's defenders long ago.
I'm determined to teach them a lesson in front of everyone.
"In this case, there is no need to show mercy." Kong Ju thought to himself.
The streets were cleared almost instantly.
Kong Ju had already placed the top-grade arrow on the Zhaoxu bow, and he shouted at Shangguan Yuzhou in a low voice: "Go!"
Buzz! Silver energy suddenly surged on Zhaoxu's bow, instantly overshadowing the light of the formations on both sides of the street.
The sudden light illuminated the night sky of the imperial city white.
Niu Fan and Lan Chi, who were confronting Kong Ju, felt their eyes blurred.
The next moment, the roar of a ferocious beast resounded in the silver light sky.
In the light, the arrow turned into a meteor with a long tail and attacked them.
Wherever the arrow passed, it caused a powerful spiritual power turbulence, tearing apart the bricks and tiles on the street, and carrying them towards Niu Fan and the others along the arrow's trajectory.
An arrow was shot out with such a terrifying sound.
The female cultivator named Lan Chi's eyes narrowed as she watched, and she shouted to Niu Fan, "This is the arrow that will defeat Jing Yushou, don't be careless!"
Niu Fan had already been on high alert. While Kong Ju's arrow was on Zhao Xu's bow, he was secretly preparing for a Taoist magic.
Prepared to block Kong Jue's arrow.
The moment Kong Jue's arrow was released, his Taoist magic was also released.
He opened his hands and slammed them hard onto the ground of the imperial city street.
Boom! The spiritual power directly shattered the white jade stone floor of the street, and then waves of vibrations spread between Niu Fan's hands.
The soil rippled like waves, and then created ripples. A stone wall made of a mixture of brown spiritual power and soil rose from the ground, trying to block the way forward on the street.
That was Niu Fan's most powerful defensive magic. He tried to use his skills, which were higher than Kong Ju's, to forcibly block the arrow.
But he underestimated the speed of Kong Ju's arrow.
Even though he came prepared and had been building up his strength for a long time.
At the moment when the arrow flashed, Kong Ju's fingers also made a spell.
"Escape!" accompanied by his light sigh.
The arrow's trajectory surged again, so fast that Niu Fan and Lan Chi's eyes were dazzled, as if it had disappeared out of thin air.
The next moment, with the flash of silver light, the arrow had actually reached less than ten feet in front of Niu Fan.
The arrow hit them before the earth wall was formed.
"So fast!" Niu Fan exclaimed in his heart. Although the arrow did not hit him, all the hair on his body stood up under the cold arrow light.
He knew that if the arrow hit him hard, he would be in the same situation as Jing Yushou.
At the critical moment, Niu Fan roared, directly stimulating his Tao foundation.
A giant black bull emerged from above his head and merged into his body.
Yellow Rank Peak Dao Foundation: Savage Blood In an instant, Niu Fan's already extremely tall figure grew taller, his muscles bulged, two horns sprouted from his head, and his entire body was enveloped in brown spiritual energy.
Then Niu Fan's eyes turned red, and he stretched out his hands forward, trying to catch Kong Ju's arrow with his bare hands and use his body blessed by Taoism to block the arrow.
Boom! The moment the arrow touched Niu Fan, it exploded into a sky full of silver light.
The arrows flew wildly, submerging Niu Fan's body like a monster.
With the area occupied by Niu Fan as the center, the energy shock generated by the collision between the two caused spider-web-like cracks on the streets and the ground.
Fortunately, the surrounding buildings were protected by a formation and were not affected, otherwise this arrow would have destroyed the entire street.
Behind Niu Fan, Lan Chi had already left the area while Niu Fan was blocking the arrows.
Without having time to check if her companions were okay, she rose into the air and pointed at the area where Kong Ju was, with something cold flashing in her eyes: "Xiuxue!"
At his call, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth condensed into thousands of ice spikes as thick as arms in the void.
Then, as she waved her hands, it poured towards that area like snow.
Her timing was impeccable.
It was just the gap when Kong Jue shot an arrow.
However, after seeing the Taoist magic used by the other party, his eyes froze for a moment, and then he smiled meaningfully and murmured, "Is it an ice-type Taoist magic?"
So he completely gave up the idea of avoiding the attack, holding the longbow, silently watching the thousands of ice spikes that were drowning him like rain.
Bang, bang, bang! The two twin brothers of the Imperial Guards looked at the area where Kong Jue was covered with ice spikes, like a giant ice sculpture hedgehog. The twin brother smiled and said, "Lan Chi's Xiu Xue is a unique technique among our Imperial Guards. Kong Jue is probably going to lose half his life after being hit by this technique."
The twin brother was quiet and nodded in agreement, "General Lan Chi grasped the timing very well, and took advantage of the opportunity when Kong Ju shot an arrow."
Obviously, neither of the two brothers thought that Kong Ju would be safe under Xiuxue.
"Deal with one!" Lan Chi was very confident in his Taoist skills, with a smile on his face.
Although Niu Fan didn't know what the opponent's situation was, he still managed to deal with one of them.
The next moment, her smile froze on her face.
Because under the street, a figure rose into the sky with a sky full of light.
There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!
While she was attacking Kong Ju with her sleeve snow, Shangguan Yuzhou also caught her fleeting negligence and rushed forward directly.
Shangguan Yuzhou came with flying black hair, eyes as bright as stars, and a sword in hand.
Before the sword energy arrived, Lan Chi's golden armor had already been torn into countless holes by the sword intent.
"What an amazing sword intent!" Lan Chi's pupils shrank when he saw this scene.
Even though his realm is higher than Shangguan Yuzhou, if he were hit by the sword energy, he would be in big trouble.
In an instant, Lan Chi also activated his Tao foundation.
Wow! A dark blue halo appeared above her head.
Then the surrounding temperature dropped sharply, and the extremely cold spiritual power condensed around the orchid pool into a giant ball of black ice that was ten feet long and wide.
It was formed just before Shangguan Yuzhou arrived.
Dangdangdang! The sword energy slashed on the black ice, and there was an endless stream of crisp clanging sounds.
Ice chips filled the sky, being cut off from the black ice as Shangguan Yuzhou's sword danced.
On the other side, while Shangguan Yuzhou was launching a joint attack on Lan Chi.
Niu Fan, who was hit directly by Kong Ji's "Dun" arrow, broke free from the bombardment of silver energy as the arrow's power faded.
On his chest, which was stronger than a buffalo, there was a bloody hole the size of a fist visible to the naked eye.
There was a black arrow in the blood hole, which kept corroding and expanding his wound. The blood kept flowing, dyeing his entire body red.
In his hands, he was still holding tightly onto that top-quality arrow.
Even though his palms were covered in blood from the arrow, he did not loosen his hands and eventually caught the arrow.
The people watching around were all surprised when they saw this scene.
That was Niu Fan who was in the Taiguang realm, not Jing Yushou who was in the Foundation Establishment realm. Yet, both of them were seriously injured by that arrow.
"This Kong Ju's archery skills are amazing. With his foundation-building stage cultivation, he was able to injure Niu Fan, who was at the fetal light stage."
"Lan Chi was right to deal with Kong Ju first. If we let him interfere in secret, I'm afraid both of them will lose."
"What a pity! The two commanders of the Imperial Guards are too experienced in actual combat. He suffered from his lack of combat experience. This battle is over."
Hearing the discussions around him, Niu Fan also laughed and threw the top-grade arrow on the ground. He glanced at the area where Kong Jue, who had been turned into a hedgehog by thousands of ice spikes, was. He said with approval, "Haha! No wonder Jing Yushou lost. I almost got killed by this arrow."
After saying this, he saw that there was no movement in the frozen area, and he couldn't help feeling a little uneasy.
"Is Kong Ju going to die? Damn it, if he dies in our hands, it will be hard to explain."
As soon as the words fell.
Boom! The street covered with ice spikes and frozen in every inch of land was shaking with spiritual energy.
Dangdangdang! The ice spikes that were stuck on the ground broke one by one in the shock of the spiritual power.
Finally, it turned into ice chips in the shock and disappeared without a trace.
The young man holding the ferocious bow emerged from the ice fog unharmed under the gaze of everyone.
The ice-based Taoist magic that Lan Chi was so proud of didn't even tear his clothes.
This scene not only made Niu Fan's eyes shrink, but even the two twin brothers who were watching the fight were shocked.
"Impossible!" The one who said this was the handsome young man who was watching the battle across the formation. His eyes widened as he looked at the young man who calmly broke through the ice spikes.
"With only the foundation-building level, how could it be possible for a cultivator at the fetal light realm to be unscathed from a full-strength attack?"
No matter how much he didn't believe it, Kong Ju's figure strolled out of the garden without a scratch on his face.
"Ice-based Taoist magic." Feeling the chill brought by the rich icy spiritual power spreading across his skin, Kong Ju took a deep breath of the cool air with a mocking look on his face.
"What a coincidence!" (End of this chapter)
