His body didn’t even ripple with that much soul force. However, the strength from his flesh still condensed boundless energy, forming countless hurricanes.

The heavy black cold carriage’s wheels left the ground slightly, as if it was going to be picked up by this hurricane.

Zhang Ping looked at what laid before his fist. This fist seemed like it wanted to completely pulverize the past’s everything, the past world.

A pure white streak of sword radiance fluttered out from within the black gold carriage, the tip of the sword striking Zhang Ping’s fist.

The instant the sword tip and the hard metal fist made contact, a Sacred Expert dressed in straw shoes, his face covered in scars also flew out from within the black gold carriage, moving between Zhang Ping and the speeding black gold carriage.

There was no tremendous noise that sounded, only an intense quaking.

The ground in front of Zhang Ping moved, rising and falling like waves. Endless cracks extended along the trembling surface, many fine cracks even appearing on the nearby city walls.

Zhang Ping’s fist also entered a mysterious state of trembling.

This strange wave of rippling prevented his body from moving forward, instead forcing him a step back.

A wave of bloodiness surged up to Zhang Ping’s throat. Zhang Ping retracted his shaking fist, a bit stunned.

The scar faced Sacred Expert’s feet sank into the ground. Steam was leaving the top of his head, forming strands of white smoke. When he saw Zhang Ping fall back and sluggishness, his resolute eyes became bright.

“Hu Piyi, that was but a useless fluke. None of you can possibly stop me.”

Right at this time, the silent Zhang Ping said this.

Hu Piyi revealed a faint smile. With a sigh, he said, “No one in this world is invincible.”

When he said this, Zhang Ping suddenly felt anger.

No one knew what he was thinking deep inside. He only took another step forward, releasing another fist.

The fist and sword clashed again.

The ground rippled like waves, even more cracks appearing on the city walls.

Zhang Ping took another step back.

However, he didn’t stop at all. He advanced again, releasing another fist.

Zhang Ping once again took another step back, advanced, and threw out a fist.

The fist and sword clashed again.

Countless cracks suddenly opened up on Hu Piyi’s sleeves as well.

Right at this moment, his sleeves cracked apart bit by bit, fluttering like butterflies. His flying sword and his entire body were also struck flying by Zhang Ping’s fist.

Blood gushed out crazily from Hu Piyi’s mouth. He was extremely shocked inside.

When the first sword stopped Zhang Ping, he could already sense that even though Zhang Ping’s physical strength increased tremendously, after experiencing a continuous battle, Zhang Ping seemed to be at his limit as well. Otherwise, since his strength was beneath Nangong Weiyang, there was no way he could stop Zhang Ping.

Yet now, Zhang Ping’s endurance and ability to continue fighting already completely exceeded his imagination!

Only Zhang Ping knew his true condition.

When several fists smashed an expert like Hu Piyi flying, the world before him was already blurry.

He no longer felt like he was walking through the ice and snow covered Central Continent City. He felt like his entire body was immersed in flames, walking through a burning prison of fire.

His consciousness was even already a bit blurry, his breathing scorching hot. He knew that he already couldn’t continue fighting, but he still wanted to continue.

He had to continue fighting, he had to kill Lin Xi here.

That was why within his armor that was already covered in cracks, a certain piece of armor moved under his soul force, releasing strong and fragrant medicinal mist.

He frantically sucked in the medicine that filled the inside of the armor. Then, the fatigue and weakness swiftly disappeared from his body. He no longer felt like he was walking through hell barefoot, but rather like he was in that field of innumerable Devil Eye Flowers.

He raised his head again, releasing a vicious roar. In a single breath of time, his entire body turned into an afterimage of unimaginable speed, arriving behind the black gold carriage Lin Xi and the others were in.

Boom!

Heaven and earth exploded again.

The carriage was filled with crazy winds. No one could see the scene inside clearly. They only saw that within the devastating gales that covered everything, there was a sapphire fist that penetrated through.

…

After this black gold carriage picked up Lin Xi and the others, it always headed straight for the sealed city gate.

Under the driving of a black robed academy lecturer Lin Xi didn’t recognize, this black gold carriage seemed like it was almost about to collide with the city gate.

Meanwhile, that giant steel sluice gate weighing tens of thousands of jin already began to slacken, starting to slowly rise.

Right at this time, there were countless wriggling noises beneath the black gold carriage.

Countless silver long whips surged from below. These silver whips’ ends released thick darkness. In this instant, these darkness shrouded long whips surged toward Zhang Ping’s feet.

Zhang Ping’s figure stopped momentarily.

The silver long whips broke apart beneath his feet bit by bit.

A black robed young lady under the city gate tower’s shadows coughed out a blast of bloody mist.

Zhang Ping’s fist continued.

Chi Yuyin released a bitter scream.

She didn’t know about the academy’s other plans, but she knew that only she could stop Zhang Ping’s fist.

She stood in front of Zhang Ping’s fist, her back tightly pressed against the black gold carriage behind her. Then, she poured all of the soul force she could muster into those seven gemstones.

A green barrier appeared in front of Zhang Ping’s fist.

When the sapphire colored fist landed on this green barrier, the barrier’s light caved in and then cracked apart.

Chi Yuyin’s entire body seemed to have been smashed into the carriage by an invisible giant mountain. Countless bone fracturing noises sounded from her back, blood pouring out from her mouth and nose. However, she was then brought into the black gold carriage’s cabin by a wave of invisible force.

After a fierce jolt, the black gold carriage’s speed suddenly accelerated.

Based on their original plans, this carriage would be able to barely make it through this heavy city gate. However, because of Zhang Ping’s strike, the city gate still didn’t rise high enough, so the top of the black gold carriage smashed ferociously into the rising city gate.

Right at this time, the black robed lecturer driving this carriage released a fierce shout. The soul force within him poured out crazily. The entire carriage surged with a boundless aura. He was actually also at the sacred level!

The academy had well-known Sacred Experts like Tong Wei, Xu Shengmo, and Qin Ge

[1]

. However, at the same time, there were many Sacred Experts not known by the outside world, people not even Lin Xi recognized.

Right now, under the full strength of this black robed lecturer whose face was a bit wax yellow, the heavy black gold carriage actually sank half a foot into the ground.

The instant the roof of the carriage had just struck the rising gate, it suddenly changed into a lid, perfectly grinding under the city gate.

A dazzling string of sparks rushed out like a brook, releasing an incredibly unpleasant sounding fierce metal grinding sound as it rushed out underneath the gate.

Zhang Ping’s body and mind were already in an extremely stimulated and intense state. He looked at Chi Yuyin who was stuck to the carriage from his fist and already didn’t have any strength to retaliate, and then he took another step forward.

He released another fist, wishing to pulverize Chi Yuyin, and then smash this carriage to pieces.

However, right at this time, his breathing completely stopped.

A giant shadow surrounded him.

This was the first time he felt the true threat of death approach since his battle against Nangong Weiyang and Lin Xi began.

That iron gate that had just risen and grinded out endless sparks with the roof of that black gold carriage didn’t continue rising. Instead, through the force of some type of tremendous power, it suddenly collapsed, crushing down towards him!

Endless dust and rubble began to crash down following a terrifying cracking noise. What was falling down wasn’t only this heavy iron gate, but rather the entire city gate tower.

The most vicious ambush Green Luan Academy arranged here wasn't the military equipment bombardment, but rather the city gate itself. It was this city gate, the city walls, as well as the endless military equipment connected to these walls! All of it was sent crashing down to bury him within!

Even if he wore the world’s most powerful armor, one that was even comparable to the Immortal Devil Age armors, there was no way he could endure the burying force of this type of weight.

During the instant his breathing stopped, his brain almost went blank. However, all of his power began to pour out from his feet.

He used all of his strength to fly out backwards!

The incredibly heavy iron gate came crashing down!

The very top of this gate that weighed many tens of thousands of jin collided with the retreating sapphire armor.

The sapphire armor looked just like a beetle. It was struck flying, hit by countless falling boulders before falling down amidst the chaos.

Chi Yuyin fell from the black gold carriage.

That black robed young lady who was originally standing under the city gate’s shadows released a distressed cry. She grabbed Chi Yuyin and jumped onto the black gold carriage.

The black gold carriage continued to charge outwards.

Behind it, the entire city gate tower collapsed. Sky reaching smoke covered the collapsed ruins.

…

Within the smoke and dust, a large boulder suddenly split apart.

What made many people’s eyes narrow was that the sapphire blue metal armor revealed itself again. It took another step forward.

However, after this step was taken, this incomparable armor and Zhang Ping inside both shook unsteadily.

A mouthful of black bloody mist erupted from Zhang Ping’s mouth like a volcano.

“Lin Xi!”

A bitter roar sounded from within this sapphire armor.

Then, this sapphire armor rocked back and forth. It fell to its bottom, and then its runes completely dimmed.

However, inside of its right palm was a flat gemstone covered in runes.

…

The black gold carriage left into the distance, vanishing from the sight of everyone near the collapsed city gate tower.

The sapphire blue armor that was sitting within the city gate rubble remained motionless, dust slowly covering its body.

The Yunqin soldiers that were previously following close behind this sapphire armor and the troops that were operating innumerable military equipment on the city walls all advanced. They surrounded this collapsed city gate tower like an ocean tide.
