Then Chen Zhou heard the cannonball made of powder strike the center of the advanced alliance members with a loud bang. Chen Zhou immediately froze on the spot, wondering what had happened to the advanced alliance members behind him.
Chen Zhou thought that the shells made of powder shouldn't be too threatening, but for some reason, even though he thought that way, Chen Zhou was still very worried about the people of the Advanced Alliance. He was afraid that the shells were not as simple as he thought.
"Bang bang bang..."
Just as Chen Zhou was still pondering, the cannonballs fired again. One after another, cannonballs made of soil powder landed in the center of the Advanced Alliance not far in front of Chen Zhou. Chen Zhou could clearly see cannonballs constantly being reassembled from the powder rushing into the Advanced Alliance.
Even if the powdered shells are not very lethal, if several of them are fired at once, the cumulative damage would probably be quite significant!
Chen Zhou immediately took three steps at a time, using the movement technique of Xingyi Cloud Sword to quickly approach the people of the Advanced Alliance. It wouldn't do for Chen Zhou to just wait here; he needed to check on the situation of the people in the Advanced Alliance as soon as possible.
When Chen Zhou got close to the people of the Advanced Alliance, he was surprised to find that there was a lot of soil and dust on the ground, and in front of him were nine rings tightly packed together, suspended in mid-air. That position was the one that blocked the cannonball.
Upon seeing this, Chen Zhou immediately felt much relieved. The middle-aged merchant had used the Nine-Linked Rings to deflect the mud powder that had been turned into cannonballs.
Seeing this, Chen Zhou finally felt relieved.
“I’m here. Although I can’t defeat that earthen ball, I can still block its attacks. Now that it has reassembled into this form, are you confident?” the middle-aged merchant asked Chen Zhou.
Indeed, Chen Zhou had just managed to break through the earthen sphere using the Sword Cloud Technique, but what awaited him was a completely different outcome! The earth element powder had actually reformed! It had formed the colossus before him, and the colossus's trunk was even a cannon barrel!
At that moment, the cannon barrel was clearly pointed at him.
In other words, Chen Zhou's Sword Cloud Technique posed no threat to the giant elephant in front of him. Even if Chen Zhou used the Sword Cloud Technique to shatter the giant elephant into dust again, it would still reassemble itself, and what would happen next was still unknown.
Unable to use the Sword Cloud Technique, Chen Zhou simply put his black sword back at his waist, then grasped the flames of the Rootless Fire with both hands, forming small fireballs, and threw them directly at the giant elephant.
These fireballs of rootless fire illuminated the teleportation tunnel, allowing everyone to clearly see the giant elephant that had appeared ahead. Chen Zhou immediately transformed into a flame and rushed forward. Because Chen Zhou's rootless fire had landed on the giant elephant, the elephant obviously had no way to extinguish Chen Zhou's flames.
However, Chen Zhou's flames could not truly harm it either; the current situation was that neither side could defeat the other.
Chen Zhou's rootless fire could not cause any real damage to the giant elephant, and the giant elephant could not cause any real damage to Chen Zhou either. The two were locked in a stalemate, and Chen Zhou blocked the giant elephant's next few attacks.
At this moment, Chen Zhou transformed into bright flames, surrounding the entire giant elephant and controlling the flames to envelop it completely.
Even if the people from the Advanced Alliance outside wanted to know the battle situation, they couldn't see what was happening inside the flames, because Chen Zhou's flames were deep red, completely blocking out what was going on inside.
Moreover, Chen Zhou had already transformed his entire body into that rootless fire. Using the Fire Transformation Technique, Chen Zhou could completely transform himself into the form of flames. In this way, the giant elephant not only fell into Chen Zhou's flames, but also could not find Chen Zhou's true body for a long time.
"Continuing like this will only buy us time. It still won't solve the problem of that earth element." The middle-aged merchant said slowly, looking at the raging fire in front of him.
The middle-aged vendor was absolutely right. In this situation, Chen Zhou was simply stalling for time, and it was indeed impossible to see any substantial results.
Chen Zhou kept delaying the giant elephant's next move. If the giant elephant had emotions, it would probably have been enraged long ago. Although this thing was no match for him, it kept pestering him, and he couldn't use his full strength at all!
Each time he fired a cannonball from his own cannon, the cannonball would be immediately intercepted by Chen Zhou's flames, charred black by the heat of the flames, and then fall to the ground.
What Chen Zhou didn't know was that the giant elephant could no longer reuse the charred mud and powder he had burned.
If Chen Zhou knew this, he would immediately increase the power of his Rootless Fire, roasting the entire giant elephant to that state, and then he would win.
However, despite his thoughts, Chen Zhou did not notice that the scorched soil on the ground was piling up more and more.
Chen Zhou didn't even notice the large amount of charred mud in front of him.
The two sides were locked in a stalemate when Chen Zhou suddenly felt a burning sensation.
Yes, it was indeed the feeling of being scorched. Since Chen Zhou possessed the Rootless Flame, he hadn't felt this scorching sensation for a long time. Because Chen Zhou himself could transform into the Rootless Flame, high temperatures were nothing to him.
But now Chen Zhou felt the scorching heat again!
What is it?
