Unlike the mysterious and unpredictable Holy Duke Zhang Liang, the Thirty-Six Great Bandits of the Central Plains were all previously mountain bandits who ruled their own territory.
Although each of them has some fame, none of them are particularly powerful. Some major martial arts sects could wipe them out, let alone now that they have the power to threaten the imperial court.
But at some point several years ago, these thirty-six bandits suddenly rose to power, each possessing a strange and powerful supernatural ability.
These thirty-six men formed a sworn brotherhood, calling themselves the Thirty-Six Great Bandits, and directly caused the imperial army to flee in terror, utterly powerless to fight back.
Such a sudden burst of strength is definitely not normal, especially since it happened simultaneously from all thirty-six people.
Looking at Dong Tiangang's information, you can see that he only has a 78% mastery of staff techniques. After seeing various masters with a mastery of 90%, this level of mastery can only be considered good at best.
Moreover, the opponent's weapon was just an ordinary mid-grade black iron rod, without any special abilities. Although his strength was great, his blood and qi strength was not very strong, even weaker than Chen Da's.
But Dong Tiangang's assessment of being at the late stage of the Ninth Revolution must be entirely due to the strange state he was in, thanks to the blessing of that Mountain-Shaking Stone.
One of the side quests involves retrieving the Thirty-Six Divine Powers. Yang Cheng had previously thought these Thirty-Six Divine Powers were cultivation techniques, but now it seems they are actually a certain item.
At this moment, Tong Bao was engulfed in flames as he charged towards Yang Cheng.
But the moment Yang Cheng slashed down, Tong Bao's body mysteriously vanished from the spot, leaving only a few flames dissipating in mid-air.
At the same time, a scorching killing intent emanated from behind Yang Cheng.
Tong Bao, wielding two daggers, simultaneously stabbed at Yang Cheng's back.
Taking advantage of this moment, Dong Tiangang shouted and swung his black iron rod straight at Yang Cheng.
Xie Xiaoyi had been holding a bow with his eyes closed, but suddenly opened them, and the bone arrow in his hand flew straight toward Yang Cheng with a sharp, piercing whistle!
These three are almost all at the late stage of the ninth level, but when they join forces, they cooperate so well that they are even capable of killing a Grandmaster at the peak of the ninth level!
Yang Cheng suddenly turned his head, ducked down, and bumped directly into Tong Bao's arms.
Step forward, flex your leg, raise your shoulder!
Nine Palaces Eight Trigrams Palm, Erlang Carries the Mountain!
Tong Bao never expected Yang Cheng to react this way, and was directly sent flying into the air by Yang Cheng.
Yang Cheng seemed oblivious to Dong Tiangang behind him, stepped forward, grabbed Tong Bao by the neck in mid-air with one hand, and slammed him hard to the ground!
A dense black demonic aura emerged beneath Dong Tiangang's feet behind him.
The shamanic spirit Chang Cuiyun emerged from within, her giant python body, over ten zhang long, tightly coiling around Dong Tiangang.
"Pfft"
A soft sound was heard.
Instead of Tong Bao's head being smashed by Yang Cheng's slam, Tong Bao's entire body turned into flames and flashed several steps away, his face pale and covered in cold sweat.
At the same time, the sinister bone arrow was already upon him.
Yang Cheng knew that this thing had the ability to devour life force, so he didn't confront it head-on at all. Instead, he used the Heaven-Stealing Divine Technique to tear it into a pile of bone fragments.
Meanwhile, Dong Tiangang struggled and finally tore Chang Cuiyun's demon immortal body apart, but it was already too late.
Xie Xiaoyi also looked anxious: "We must subdue Yang Cheng, otherwise my arrows will not be able to break through his powerful internal energy defense!"
Tong Bao said with lingering fear, "I fucking know that! But this guy is too terrifying. I couldn't even get close to him. He almost smashed my head open just now!"
Yang Cheng stared at Tong Bao with a strange smile on his face: "Your supernatural power is quite interesting, but I think I know where its weakness is."
Tong Bao's expression changed as Yang Cheng charged straight at him, his Imperial Guard saber unleashing a barrage of sword energy that stretched for several feet, striking repeatedly.
Black energy emanated from the black iron staff in Dong Tiangang's hand as he swung it and smashed it towards Yang Cheng, seemingly fearless of death.
He was powerful but lacked versatility, so he could only use this method to act as a human shield and provide opportunities for Tong Bao and Xie Xiaoyi.
But Yang Cheng released Chang Cuiyun again to fight him.
Dong Tiangang is indeed very strong, but it will take him some time to break free from Chang Cuiyun.
This period of time was enough for Yang Cheng to kill Tong Bao!
The flames reappeared, but this time Tong Bao was horrified to find that several feet around him were enveloped by a terrifying vortex of spiritual energy.
He reappeared, but the place where he appeared still had a vortex of spiritual energy, and this vortex was getting bigger and bigger, with a stronger tearing force.
Tong Bao burned his life essence, wanting to teleport the furthest distance in one go.
But before he could transform into flames again, the vortex of spiritual energy had already reversed its rotation, turning into a spiritual energy storm that exploded completely!
The storm swept across dozens of feet, tearing apart the land and rocks. Tong Bao didn't even have time to react before he was completely torn into a cloud of blood mist!
Tong Bao's Flame Flash ability is indeed very strange; even in Yang Cheng's hands, he can still teleport away.
However, each time he teleported, he was almost always within a few feet of his original location, and the furthest he ever went was no more than ten feet.
This solves the problem easily. As long as he is attacked indiscriminately within a radius of ten feet, he will die even if he doesn't.
A strange object remained where Tong Bao had died: a ring that was burning with flames.
Yang Cheng didn't have time to study this thing and directly put it into his storage space.
Dong Tiangang finally broke free of his restraints and swung his black iron rod wildly at Yang Cheng.
Yang Cheng neither dodged nor evaded, his blood oath erupted, and the Imperial Guards' sabers slashed continuously. Each impact of their power caused surrounding rocks to fly everywhere. After dozens of moves, the ground where the two of them stood was blasted into a crater half a person deep!
