111: Unify Changning City
In that dim, slightly chilly flat land, thick mist shrouded the entire space like a thin veil.
Yang Chunlai was dressed in a black tight-fitting outfit, his posture as straight as a pine, his eyes filled with coldness and determination as he stood in a standoff against Li Dahai, the Hall Master of the White Tiger Hall, and Feng Rugui, the Hall Master of the Black Tortoise Hall.
The air around them seemed to be frozen by this tense atmosphere, so oppressive that it was hard to breathe.
Suddenly, Li Dahai let out a long howl that shook the surroundings. His Qi surged, and in an instant, he transformed into a White Tiger as massive as an elephant.
The White Tiger's fur shimmered with a cold, eerie luster.
Its sharp claws carved deep gullies into the ground.
Its blood-red eyes radiated a bloodthirsty light, its Aura aggressive, as if it wanted to tear everything before it into pieces.
Feng Rugui stood to the side, his black robe flapping in the wind.
He held a tortoise shell shield that radiated an ancient Aura steadily in one hand.
In his other hand, he brandished a strange snake staff, upon which countless strange runes flickered, as if telling of mysterious power.
The horn of battle was blown, and Li Dahai, relying on his powerful strength, launched the attack first.
He suddenly opened his blood-red mouth, letting out a deafening "White Tiger Roar".
In an instant, the sound waves, like invisible sharp blades, cut through the air and struck towards Yang Chunlai.
Wherever they passed, the sand and stones on the ground were shaken up, and the surrounding trees also swayed violently under the impact of this powerful sound wave, their branches and leaves rustling down.
However, facing such a powerful attack, Yang Chunlai was not afraid at all.
He saw the corners of his mouth lift slightly, revealing a confident smile, and then he used his teleportation technique.
In an instant, his figure vanished from the spot like a phantom.
Just as Li Dahai and Feng Rugui had not yet reacted, Yang Chunlai had already appeared behind Li Dahai.
He reached out and gently patted the White Tiger's butt, the action seemingly as if he were playing with a tame kitten, full of mockery.
Subsequently, he teleported again, leaving only an astonished Li Dahai and Feng Rugui.
Then Yang Chunlai appeared in the distance, looking at the two with a smile.
With his arms crossed, he seemed to not take the two seriously at all.
Zhu Yunque, on the city gate, was stunned.
"Since when did this Yang Chunlai possess such a unique skill that one could only see in books?"
No wonder he was still in the room just now, and in the blink of an eye, he had moved to the windowsill!
On the battlefield, seeing this, Feng Rugui's heart burned with anger; he fiercely brandished the snake staff in his hand, chanting.
"【Ten Thousand Snakes Released】!"
Instantly, countless poisonous snakes hissed out from the staff.
They flicked their tongues, their eyes filled with cold murderous intent, like a black torrent, pouncing towards Yang Chunlai.
However, Yang Chunlai's figure was like lightning, weaving back and forth among the group of poisonous snakes.
Every movement was just right; those poisonous snakes could only bite the air and fell to the ground one after another.
Yang Chunlai drifted like a ghost between the two, playing with Li Dahai and Feng Rugui to his heart's content, making their attacks miss time and time again.
Li Dahai and Feng Rugui were both angry and anxious.
They constantly changed their attack methods, trying to catch Yang Chunlai's figure, but it was all in vain.
They could only watch helplessly as Yang Chunlai wantonly provoked them in front of them, but they had no way to deal with him.
Having played enough with these two opponents, a sharp light flashed in Yang Chunlai's eyes.
He decided not to delay any longer; it was time to end this battle.
He saw his hands quickly forming seals, chanting, and the surrounding Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi seemed to have received some kind of summons, beginning to gather towards him frantically.
As the Spiritual Qi continued to gather, the giant rocks on the ground also began to tremble, and one by one, the giant rocks slowly rose, constantly rotating and Fusion in the air.
In the blink of an eye, a giant stone man appeared before everyone's eyes.
This stone man was ten zhang tall, with a burly figure, and every rock seemed to contain endless power.
It took heavy steps, and every step it took caused the ground to tremble.
It was like a moving small mountain crushing towards the White Tiger that Li Dahai had transformed into.
Li Dahai felt a huge threat; he let out an angry roar, trying to resist the stone man with his own strength.
The White Tiger jumped high, lunging towards the stone man's head, its sharp claws flashing with cold light, as if it wanted to tear the stone man's head apart.
However, the stone man did not dodge or avoid it; it brandished its huge fist and smashed it towards the White Tiger.
With a loud "Boom", the White Tiger was smashed to the ground, kicking up a cloud of dust.
Li Dahai felt as if his spine was about to be broken.
Before Li Dahai could recover, Yang Chunlai turned his gaze to Feng Rugui.
A long spear appeared out of thin air in his hand, the spear body flashing with cold light, the tip of the spear extremely sharp.
Holding the long spear, Yang Chunlai rushed towards Feng Rugui like a bolt of lightning.
Seeing this, Feng Rugui hurriedly raised the tortoise shell shield, trying to block Yang Chunlai's attack.
However, Yang Chunlai's long spear was powerful and heavy, carrying an unstoppable Aura, and it fiercely pierced the tortoise shell shield.
With a "Crack", the tortoise shell shield actually developed a crack.
Feng Rugui was shocked; he hurriedly brandished the snake staff, releasing countless poisonous snakes again, trying to block Yang Chunlai's offensive.
Yang Chunlai snorted coldly, his hands quickly forming seals, and the temperature around him dropped instantly; the water vapor in the air quickly condensed into ice.
In the blink of an eye, countless ice spikes rose from the ground and shot towards the group of poisonous snakes. Under the attack of the ice spikes, those poisonous snakes were pierced one after another and fell to the ground.
Immediately after, Yang Chunlai controlled the ice and water, forming a huge ice wave that swept towards Feng Rugui.
Feng Rugui could not dodge in time and was hit by the ice wave, his whole body frozen in a block of ice, unable to move.
Li Dahai, lying on the ground, watched everything happening before him, his heart filled with despair.
He knew he was no match for Yang Chunlai and was completely conquered by Yang Chunlai's strength.
He struggled to climb up, knelt down to Yang Chunlai, and begged for mercy, expressing his willingness to obey any of Yang Chunlai's orders.
However, Feng Rugui was not reconciled to failure.
Trapped in the ice, his eyes still flashed with hatred, and he kept cursing Yang Chunlai in his mouth.
Yang Chunlai looked at Feng Rugui, a trace of cold murderous intent revealing in his eyes.
He slowly walked up to Feng Rugui, reached out, and pressed his hand on the ice.
Instantly, a powerful Soul Power surged from Yang Chunlai's hand and invaded Feng Rugui's mind.
Feng Rugui only felt as if his Soul was being tightly grasped by an invisible giant hand, in extreme pain.
He struggled desperately, trying to break free from Yang Chunlai's control, but discovered that his power was so insignificant in front of Yang Chunlai's Soul Power.
Yang Chunlai's Soul Power constantly explored in Feng Rugui's mind, looking for his Soul core.
Finally, Yang Chunlai found Feng Rugui's Soul core, and his Soul Power instantly wrapped around it.
Feng Rugui only felt his consciousness beginning to blur; his thoughts and his will were all being eroded and controlled by Yang Chunlai bit by bit.
Before long, Feng Rugui's eyes became hollow and dull, and there was no longer any hatred or anger on his face.
He had been completely Soul-controlled by Yang Chunlai and became Yang Chunlai's Puppet.
Yang Chunlai looked at Feng Rugui, who was under his control, and nodded with satisfaction.
Just at this moment, Zhu Yunque flew over from a distance.
Seeing the powerful strength Yang Chunlai displayed in this battle, her heart was filled with shock and admiration.
She flew in front of Yang Chunlai, bowed deeply, expressing that she was completely conquered by Yang Chunlai and was willing to follow Yang Chunlai and work for him like a dog or a horse.
Yang Chunlai looked at Zhu Yunque and nodded slightly.
Subsequently, he turned around and looked at Li Dahai, who was kneeling and begging for mercy, and Feng Rugui, who was under his control.
"From today onwards, you must all obey my orders."
"If there is any disobedience, the only outcome is death."
Li Dahai and Feng Rugui nodded hurriedly, kneeling and surrendering, indicating absolute obedience.
Where had the troops brought by the two halls ever seen such a figure descending like a Heavenly God?
They followed behind the two Hall Masters one after another, kneeling in a large crowd on the ground.
Just at this moment, footsteps came from a distance.
Old Gourd, Strong Ox, and Zhu Yeqing walked over with a group of people.
Old Gourd walked up to Yang Chunlai and said respectfully, "Master, I have already razed the White Tiger Hall headquarters."
Strong Ox: "Big Brother, I have already led people to unify the Vermilion Bird Hall."
Zhu Yeqing: "Big Brother, I have already led people to subdue the Black Tortoise Hall."
It turned out that Yang Chunlai learned that the elites of the Three Great Halls had all gone out to attack Bright Moon Villa.
Their headquarters must have been empty of troops.
So he adopted the strategy of besieging Wei to rescue Zhao, both subduing the forces of the Three Great Halls and training his own subordinates.
Hearing this, Yang Chunlai smiled with satisfaction.
Li Dahai, Feng Rugui, and Zhu Yunque were all extremely shocked when they heard this news.
They did not expect that Yang Chunlai was not only so powerful in battle but also so rapid in the expansion of his forces.
The three looked at each other, and they all understood in their hearts that from today onwards, they would completely follow Yang Chunlai and start a brand-new journey.
The three Hall Masters knelt down one after another, expressing their loyalty to Yang Chunlai.
Yang Chunlai looked at everything before him, his heart filled with a sense of achievement.
He knew that this was just the first step towards his Peak, and there would be more challenges waiting for him in the future.
Tens of kilometers away, the Devil King in the Air Raid Shelter let out a series of howls...
