87: Nantian Sect

"Not a single new monster has rushed out in the last few minutes."

"Presumably, the monsters here have been mostly cleared out."

A group of people watched Li Canglan and the others recovering their state in the distance and immediately began to whisper among themselves.

"If we wait for them to recover, relying just on us, we definitely won't be able to snatch anything from them."

"My proposal is to strike first!"

A man with a shifty-eyed, sinister air lowered his voice and said.

However, some in the crowd were still hesitant.

"But many of us are also seriously injured."

Because of Li Canglan's interference, their plan to reap the rewards without effort had fallen through.

Otherwise, they would have chosen to make a move long ago.

"Are you stupid? We have the numbers!"

The sinister man said with a sinister chuckle,

"A Martial Artist's body isn't as tough as a Demonic Beast's. Although they are Two-Star Martial Artists, they are also heavily injured."

"As long as we swarm them, they will surely die!"

These highly inflammatory words made many people itch to act.

The legendary Heaven And Earth Treasure was right before their eyes.

Who could let go of this reward that was almost within reach?

As long as they killed Li Canglan and the others, they believed their chances of obtaining the Heaven And Earth Treasure would at least increase several-fold!

"Do it!"

Greed had blinded them.

For the vast majority of people, the only reason they hadn't betrayed anyone was that the benefits offered weren't great enough.

As long as the benefits were sufficient, they could turn on anyone at any time!

Unless, of course, they were among the very few with firm willpower.

But these ordinary people were clearly not of that sort.

However, they didn't notice.

As they stepped forward.

That shifty-eyed man quietly retreated from the crowd to the very back.

His eyes were gloomy, and a playful smile hung on the corner of his mouth.

All of you must die here!

The Giant Sword Man, Yang Diao, who had just caught his breath, sighed and slowly stood up,

"Brother He said before that you would make a move on us, and at first, I still held expectations for you."

"Now it seems that you completely deserve to die."

A white silk ribbon appeared in the hands of the woman in the white dress, Wang Chuchu,

"There is no point in talking more; since we are already at each other's throats, we can only kill them."

"Men die for wealth, just as birds die for food."

Since the dozens of Martial Artists had made up their minds, they would no longer hesitate,

"You have blocked our path of Martial Dao to becoming stronger, so we must kill you first!"

In the shadows, the members of the Descent Faction who had originally intended to act.

Seeing this scene, they were instantly overjoyed.

They hadn't expected that just a few words would incite these people to start killing each other.

"These people's stances don't seem that firm after all."

"See if there are any people suitable to be recruited under our command."

Under their surveillance, the battle on the field was about to erupt.

Li Canglan, Yang Diao, Wang Chuchu, Feng Shanshan, and Wang Guangke formed one camp.

The remaining dozens of people formed the other camp.

"That skinny monkey is truly insidious!"

Wang Guangke, who had a rough nature, cursed loudly after smashing a Martial Artist with a full-force punch that made the man cough up blood.

Originally, the six of them were the targets of everyone.

But that skinny monkey, seeing the situation was not good, immediately entered a stealth state.

Those people seemed to naturally give up on the skinny monkey for the time being and focused their targets on them.

"Let's do it."

The Iceberg Woman, Feng Shanshan, let out a cold shout and swept her long sword horizontally.

A frosty wave of air spewed from the tip of her sword, almost freezing the air in front of her.

Crack!

The Martial Artist rushing at the very front only felt a cold wind hitting his face, his teeth chattering.

Even his movements were slowed down significantly.

Then, he watched helplessly as Wang Guangke's bowl-sized fist slammed into his face.

Bang!

His head exploded instantly.

Red and white matter splattered all over the ground, which was nauseating.

Li Canglan also didn't yield, his Thunderbolt Slash cutting through the air.

Boom!

With one slash, two bolts of lightning roared!

This was the boost brought by the Eight Directions Thunderclap, which had reached the Minor Achievement proficiency level.

This slash severed the combat weapons and arms of two Martial Artists!

The hardness of combat weapons of the same level is roughly similar.

But the quantity and quality of the Martial Artist's mark that the user can mobilize will strengthen its hardness.

The stronger the user's strength, the greater the amplification to the combat weapon.

A One-Star Warrior, even if wielding an A-grade combat weapon, is no match for a Three-Star Martial Artist.

Combat weapons only serve as a strengthening tool, not something Heaven-Defying!

Only some legendary weapons could possibly allow a user to kill enemies across Realms.

Yang Diao and the others were not to be outdone.

His giant sword had amazing weight.

He didn't even need to use a Martial Skill; he just needed to swing his sword down normally.

It was enough to make these Martial Artists unable to resist.

The group of five, like harvesting wheat, swept through these dozens of Martial Artists.

In just a few short minutes.

Except for Li Canglan and the others, only a few six or seven Martial Artists remained on the field.

Just as Wang Guangke was preparing to continue sweeping, he suddenly felt his legs stiffen there, unable to move.

"What's going on?"

Wang Guangke was only restricted in his movement, but his vision was not obstructed.

He scanned back and forth, but found no suspicious people.

Li Canglan and the others also noticed something was wrong.

Alarm bells rang in everyone's hearts.

"Your strength is quite good."

In the darkness, a group of masked men wearing uniform attire walked out.

The aura on these people was mostly around the Two-star level.

Li Canglan roughly felt it, and the leading masked man probably even reached the Two-star Peak!

A dozen or so Two-Star Martial Artists were a force to be reckoned with anywhere!

Even in the Patrol Guard and the Demon Suppression Division, these people could be considered core forces!

"People from the Nantian Gate Sect?"

As a member of the Demon Suppression Division, Yang Diao quickly recognized the origin of these people.

"What organization is this?"

Li Canglan was a novice and was hearing the mention of the Nantian Gate Sect for the first time.

"The Nantian Gate Sect is one of the several major Descent Faction organizations in Shenxia Country."

Yang Diao's expression was solemn as he explained to Li Canglan,

"Besides all wanting to welcome the rule of alien races, the Descent Factions of the world also have organizational divisions."

"The most famous ones in Shenxia Country are the Nantian Gate Sect and the Honghuang Sect."

"In the White Eagle Federation, the War God Alliance dominates, while in the Ah San Country, it is the Brahmins."

"They each claim that their respective gods will one day descend into the world."

"And these alien races are just tests sent down by the gods to humanity."

Li Canglan's eyes were full of confusion.

"If that's the case, shouldn't the test for humanity be to see if we can kill these alien races?"

How does this connect to living in peace with alien races?

"What do you mortals know?"

The Two-star Peak Martial Artist with a chrysanthemum embroidered on his chest snorted coldly,

"The gods love the world! The gods' test is naturally to allow us to coexist peacefully!"

"A god who only knows slaughter all day long, what kind of god is that?"
