Gate of God
chapter-367

If there was a certain provocation method in this world that caused the most hatred and vengeance, it definitely wouldn't be able to escape comparison with Fang Zhengzhi's current actions.

You are filled with righteousness?

You wish to fight for Wu Feng and Chen Feiyu?

Then, let me shoot another arrow towards Wu Feng. Let me see how you remain as a "good man".

That was the first thought that came to the minds of all the scholars and the military commanders. It was also the first thought that came to Wu Feng, who was trying to heal the scholar's injury.

"Is there any end to this? You are shooting again?!" This time, Wu Feng was truly somewhat angered.

If you only shoot at me once in a while, I can temporarily hold myself back. However, you are provoking me not once, but over and over again. Nobody would be able to hold back.

Wu Feng instantly shot up and turned around. He looked towards the jade-green arrow that fell from the sky and instinctively lifted up the jade flute in his hand and placed it in his mouth, attempting to block off this arrow.

However, right at this moment, an chilling feeling rose from his heart.

This chill came from the depth of his heart. However, it originated from behind his back. That was a strange feeling, causing him deep discomfort.

The speed of the jade-green arrow was naturally extremely fast. In the blink of an eye, it arrived on top of Wu Feng's head, carrying with it a power sufficient to tear apart the fabric of space.

Wu Feng knew very clearly how much power this thing contained.

He definitely could block off this shot. However, it required him to expend all his strength and energy. At the very least, he mustn't be burdened with any other thoughts or distractions.

However, under the current circumstances, could he achieve that state of clarity?

It was impossible!

Hence, Wu Feng very decisively dismissed the idea of blocking. Instead, he shot towards his left in a flash. This action was indeed more or less rather selfish.

However, in reality, Wu Feng had never considered himself as a great righteous youth.

What should he do if he wasn't able to save Young Master Li?

Then, he should just die.

Wu Feng wasn't bothered about that.

Hence…

"Boom!"

A resounding bang sounded out once again. Wu Feng had casually and quickly ran to one side. Hence, the person who truly suffered the force of this arrow was Young Master Li.

This scene naturally landed once again in the eyes of all the scholars and military commanders.

"Alright, this time he is really dead!"

This was the first thought that came to everybody's mind when they saw the jade green arrow land. The second thought was that Fang Zhengzhi's criminal charges were now official.

If the person didn't die.

Then, there would still naturally be opportunities and reasons to drop the charges. However, once he was dead, there would be many things that Fang Zhengzhi wouldn't be able to explain and escape from. At the very least, this was what they thought.

However...

The turning point of a situation always happened when one least expected it.

Even when it happened, it would still cause people to feel somewhat dumbfounded.

At this moment, this was how Wu Feng, Chen Feiyu and the military commanders thought. Because, right at the moment when the jade-green arrow landed.

An arm flew up.

That was an arm filled with fresh blood. It naturally came from the injured Young Master Li. However, that wasn't the main point. The main point was that on that arm, there was still a dagger.

A dagger that glowed with a faint blue glow.

Blue represented many things within the Dao of All Creations. For example, the sea, the sky, flowers and so on. However, it had another meaning among the Dao of All Creation.

That was…

Poison!

The poison of the Upas Tree!

Why did the injured Young Master Li hold a poisonous dagger in his hand. This was something which nobody could understand within this short span of time.

Wu Feng's initially somewhat furious expression instantly vanished, and instead appeared somewhat pale.

At this moment, he actually felt his legs go weak. Because, even though he hadn't completely understood what transpired, he knew somewhat faintly what had just occurred.

Chill!

A chill was sent down his spine.

At this instant, the gazes of Wu Feng and the military commanders were all focused on that detached arm flying in the sky. However, this didn't mean that everybody did the same.

For example, the four scholars who were attacking Fang Zhengzhi, as well as the other two scholars who were loudly urging for the fighting to stop as they sprinted towards Fang Zhengzhi.

At the very least, these six people didn't look at that detached arm.

Instead, they continued to execute what they felt that they should be doing.

"Fang Zhengzhi, raise your hands and surrender!" A scholar finally broke through the defences and forced himself between two Silver Horned Wolves.

The glow of his sword magnified greatly at this moment, seeming completely different from what it was like before. In an instant, the glow of the sword seemed to have expanded at least three feet.

At the same time, the other three scholars also seemed to be changing.

If it was said that the aura the four scholars gave off during their initial attack was somewhat normal, then, the current aura from their bodies were clearly different.

Swift and fierce!

Extremely swift and fierce!

"Be careful!" Teng Shisheng's expression also changed slightly at this moment. A green glow instantly began to radiate from his dark skin.

That was a glow that came from within. When that glow lit up, Teng Shisheng's skin turned somewhat dry, as if moisture was leaving his body.

It was a very strange scene.

However…

The outcome didn't seem too bad.

"Dong!"

An extremely dull thud sounded out. The magnified sword glow was actually forcefully deformed by Teng Shisheng's one punch. Or, it could also be said that when the sword glow cut towards Teng Shisheng's fist.

It seemed to be slanted!

When Fang Zhengzhi witnessed this scene, it was rather impossible for him to claim that he wasn't taken aback at all. Even though he didn't quite understand the training methods of the Southern Mountain Range.

However, he could at least feel the change in the air.

Teng Shisheng.

The team leader of five hundred Silver Horned Wolf Cavalries.

In terms of raw power, Fang Zhengzhi didn't think that Teng Shisheng would be very strong. Hence, Fang Zhengzhi assumed that Teng Shisheng was only probably of the Heavenly Reflection State.

At the very most…

He would have attained the Heavenly Reflection Peak State.

However, when he saw Teng Shisheng's punch, this thought was immediately rejected.

In Princess Shan Yu's military camp, Fang Zhengzhi had fought with General Tai. Hence, he knew very clearly how powerful General Tai of the Supernatural Advanced State would be.

Teng Shisheng's power might not be as ferocious as General Tai's.

However, in terms of stability.

There wasn't a single bit of difference.

"Teng Shisheng is actually of the Supernatural State?!" Fang Zhengzhi very quickly confirmed this thought. However, when this thought arose, another thought entered his mind.

If Teng Shisheng was really of the Supernatural State.

Why did Teng Shisheng purposely conceal this in the previous battles?

From the moment Teng Shisheng appeared by Fang Zhengzhi's side, the abilities he displayed were all extremely ordinary. Even when they surrounded Chen Feiyu and Wu Feng.

Teng Shisheng's performance didn't appear too impressive.

Fang Zhengzhi didn't have a definite answer to this. However, he could faintly sense that it wasn't a coincidence that Princess Shan Yu had sent Teng Shisheng to his side.

Then, what was that Princess Shan Yu's intention?

Giving him a Cyan Stone Token for no reason at all, and then giving him five hundred Silver Horned Wolf Cavalry troops, and also sending Teng Shisheng, who concealed his true powers, to his side.

If it was said that Princess Shan Yu did this to ensure Fang Zhengzhi's safety, Fang Zhengzhi wouldn't believe it even if he was beaten to death. Because, that girl didn't have such a good heart.

Fang Zhengzhi didn't continue pondering this issue.

Because, now wasn't exactly the time to do so.

As Teng Shisheng blocked off the expanding sword glow, the expressions of the other three scholars clearly changed as they looked towards Teng Shisheng with a faint shock in their eyes.

However, it was just a faint shock.

After exchanging a quick glance at one another, the three scholars didn't hesitate any further.

They stepped forward at the same time.

The actually forced themselves in the middle of the Silver Horned Wolves and used their external territory to force back the few Silver Horned Wolves.

At this moment, other than Teng Shisheng, the expressions of the other Silver Horned Wolf Cavalry troops were a deathly shade of pale.

The fundamental source of their power came from the Silver Horned Wolf. As for their individual powers, they naturally couldn't all have attained the Heavenly Reflection State.

In reality, among the five hundred Silver Horned Wolf Cavalry troops, seven out of ten of them were only of the Star Conglomerate State.

However, even so, it didn't stop them from becoming the most elite forces of the Southern Mountain Range. Because, with the Silver Horned Wolves, they could easily match up to someone of the Heavenly Reflection Intermediate State.

However…

It was clearly somewhat futile to fight against four enraged scholars of the Heavenly Reflection Peak State and above.

They were unable to surround the enemy and hence, the Silver Horned Wolves couldn't unleash their full power. As for the Silver Horned Wolf Cavalry troops standing behind, other than watching, the most they could do was to cause some distractions.

For example, shouting out loud - careful of your left, beware on top of you, or toss out a few black spears glowing with an icy glow to prevent their teammate from being injured.

However, this was futile in tackling the root of the problem.

The four scholars had clearly considered this point. They simply didn't give the Silver Horned Wolf Cavalry troops much opportunities. After forcefully pushing them back, the four swords in the hands of the scholars mysteriously met at one point.

"Sword formation?!"

When the military commanders witnessed this scene, they finally regained their senses. Each of their eyes were filled with shock. However, more of it was filled with a form of disbelief.

Because, in their hearts, the scholars in front of them were examinees participating in the Court Examination.

Four examinees?

How could they cooperate so well through a sword formation? Shouldn't they be fighting as individuals? Even if they really had some synergy, it was definitely impossible for things to be like this!

They truly couldn't understand.

As the military commanders were lost in thought, the four scholars didn't seem to have any intention of explaining themselves. At the instant their four swords met, the expressions of the four scholars instantly changed.

In it, there seemed to be a certain pain.

Fang Zhengzhi had seen this expression before. That was during the time Yan Xiu employed his Asura Dao. However, compared to Yan Xiu, the pain of the faces of these four scholars didn't seem quite the same.

Yan Xiu's was a form of endurance.

However, these four scholars seemed to be suffering.

A glow lit up in the middle of the four swords. It was a light similar to that of a star. The silver glow was soft as silk.

It was very soft, yet mysteriously sent a sharp chill down people's spines.

"This looks like…" Fang Zhengzhi rapidly recalled a scene. That was something that happened within The Vast World.

In there, Fang Zhengzhi met with somebody from the Southern Mountain Range for the first time.

His name was Shan Jia.

And, standing beside Shan Jia, there was another person. Or, it could also be said that there was another demon. That was the first time Fang Zhengzhi saw a red Demon Eye, and the first time he felt the power of a demon named Bai Xing.

The Domain Chief of the Demon Race Star Domain, Bai Xing!

Fang Zhengzhi didn't know why he felt the way he did now. However, he faintly felt that when these four swords combined together, that silver glow seemed to be largely similar to the starry glow that Bai Xing gave off.

Alright..

I seem to have overestimated myself this time!

Fang Zhengzhi naturally saw through the identities of these people. Not only did he realise the identities of these four people, he also realized the identity of that "Young Master Li" standing behind Wu Feng.

In reality, among these four scholars, there was initially one that was standing behind Chen Feiyu.

However…

Chen Feiyu seemed to be crazy!

He actually forcefully blocked off Fang Zhengzhi's Million Sword Illustration, allowing that scholar to continue concealing his identity.

Hence, as Chen Feiyu leapt around and shouted for Fang Zhengzhi to shoot another arrow at him again.

Fang Zhengzhi was actually somewhat speechless.

Other than expressing his despise towards Chen Feiyu's intelligence, there really wasn't another sentence that could describe his feelings. However, fortunately, Chen Feiyu had demonstrated a rather impressive power when he blocked off the arrow.

At the very least, the scholar who had already unsheathed his sword managed to sheath it back in time, revealing a rather exaggerated and shocked expression on his face.

Fang Zhengzhi had seen it. However, he didn't wish to loudly expose it. Instead, what he thought was that since you don't wish to expose yourself, let me give you a surprise.

That was the reason he shot another arrow towards Wu Feng.

The outcome was clearly evident.

The results were very ideal, and rather impressive. Not only did he disable that "Young Master Li" who was about to attack Wu Feng, he even managed to enrage and trigger his four buddies.

Until now, Fang Zhengzhi had given his own perfect plan thirty two 'likes'.

However...

What he never thought of was that.

Even with five hundred Silver Horned Wolves beside him and forty thousand soldiers behind him, the other party had actually suddenly managed to advance to his side and even seemed to be executing a technique almost similar to that of Bai Xing.

Shouldn't I be possessing an absolute advantage in this, playing with them in any way I wish?

This was what Fang Zhengzhi thought all along.

However, in reality, he seemed to have miscalculated a tiny bit once again. The powers of the "four scholars" was actually not of the Heavenly Reflection Peak State.

Instead, it was the Supernatural State!

Most importantly, these four "scholars" of the Supernatural State seemed to be using a certain sword formation that enabled them to attack together. This actually enabled their sword techniques to come close to Bai Xing of the Rebirth State!

"What the hell, Yun Qingwu, are you kidding me? No matter what, we were once in the same "boat" together, you actually sent four people of the Supernatural State to assassinate me?!"
