This crack ran through the entire sphere of earth, but it didn't cause the sphere to collapse completely. The sphere seemed unaffected and continued to roll forward.
"What's going on..." Chen Zhou turned around in astonishment, looking at the scene. He couldn't understand why the earthen ball could maintain its original shape and continue rolling even after he had split it open.
Chen Zhou did not stay in place, but raised his black sword again, preparing to strike again. If one strike could not solve the earthen ball in front of him, he could strike a second strike. If the second strike failed, he could strike a third, or even a fourth or fifth strike. If none of these worked, Chen Zhou could keep striking until the earthen ball disintegrated!
The second sword strike.
Chen Zhou's second sword struck the moving earthen ball again, and another crack appeared on it!
However, as soon as the crack appeared, Chen Zhou was already in front of the earthen ball, but at this point, Chen Zhou had no way to deal with the earthen ball in front of him.
Since Chen Zhou had already used his Xingyi Cloud Sword technique, his moves were no longer effective against the earthen ball.
The middle-aged vendor was standing in front of Chen Zhou, watching him strike the earthen ball with both swords, but did nothing to stop it. Chen Zhou turned around again to look behind him. Although two cracks had appeared on the earthen ball, he still couldn't do anything about it.
“Although this earthen ball isn’t made of demonic energy, we still can’t do anything about it,” Chen Zhou asked, stepping back to the middle-aged vendor.
The middle-aged vendor was at a loss. All he had was his Nine Linked Rings, unlike Chen Zhou who had so many moves. And Chen Zhou's moves were useless against the earthen ball, let alone his Nine Linked Rings. Although his Nine Linked Rings had a special effect on the demonic energy, they were still ineffective against this earthen ball.
The middle-aged merchant and Chen Zhou had no choice but to retreat immediately. Two of the nine rings from the middle-aged merchant's rings quickly landed on Chen Zhou's legs, and Chen Zhou now had the ability to stand on this illusory teleportation channel.
The two retreated on foot along the teleportation path, while the members of the Advanced Alliance behind them crawled, so their speed was naturally not as fast as Chen Zhou and the middle-aged merchant's. At this point, Chen Zhou and the middle-aged merchant had not walked for long before they caught up with the members of the Advanced Alliance behind them.
"Leader, don't you have any solutions with these things?" the members of the Advanced Alliance asked. Although they had seen the two of them helpless against the things in this teleportation channel many times, they had already found many ways to solve the problem. This time, however, they had nothing to solve the problem.
"You all need to retreat immediately. We don't have any solutions yet," the middle-aged merchant said to the people behind him. The members of the Advanced Alliance immediately retreated, and they sped up their pace because the middle-aged merchant and Chen Zhou had also retreated. Everyone had to retreat immediately to make room for Chen Zhou and the middle-aged merchant.
Chen Zhou and the middle-aged merchant continued to retreat. The earthen ball in front of them was rolling towards them. Chen Zhou and the middle-aged merchant stared intently at the earthen ball, whose white thorns were now emitting a white light.
The white light, illuminated by Chen Zhou's flames, shone directly on the faces of Chen Zhou and the middle-aged merchant.
"Have you thought of a solution?" the middle-aged vendor asked Chen Zhou.
The middle-aged vendor was standing next to Chen Zhou to cheer him on; for him, there was really no other way.
So now the middle-aged vendor with the clay ball has no other choice but to see if Chen Zhou has any ideas.
“My method is to keep using the black sword to slash at that earthen ball, but I’ve already slashed it twice, and you’ve seen the cracks, right? The earthen ball is still in the same shape as before,” Chen Zhou said.
"Two sword strikes won't work, then three, four. I refuse to believe that with so many sword marks, it can still maintain its previous shape," the middle-aged merchant said helplessly.
Upon hearing the middle-aged vendor's words, Chen Zhou immediately began to recall his previous thoughts. He had indeed thought the same way before, but after his second sword strike failed to produce any effect, he gradually gave up on the idea. However, after hearing what the middle-aged vendor said, he seemed to have gained confidence.
Chen Zhou immediately gripped his black sword, his eyes fixed on the earthen ball in front of him, ready to launch a third attack at any moment.
Chen Zhou had been preparing for this third attack for a long time, and he was ready to use a new move from the Sword Cloud Technique.
The clod of earth remained unchanged, maintaining its previous shape. Therefore, Chen Zhou's current movement was guaranteed to hit the clod of earth, as he could fully anticipate its next move.
Simply put, the earthen ball rolled towards Chen Zhou and the middle-aged merchant at a certain speed. Chen Zhou's Cloud Piercing Sword technique quickly landed on the earthen ball, and Chen Zhou passed through it, appearing behind it.
This is the Cloud Piercing Sword.
Then, another crack appeared on the earthen ball. As soon as the crack appeared, Chen Zhou immediately realized that something was wrong! Because the earthen ball seemed to be splitting in two, with the two halves falling to either side.
Seeing the clay ball split into two, Chen Zhou felt a secret joy; his trick was still effective against the clay ball!
