202: We humans are the most peace-loving!
“Then do you want to enter the inner circle with us?”
“Of course.”
Jiang Yuan nodded, glanced at the empty space behind him, smiled, and then followed Wenren Fangyan.
After Jiang Yuan stepped forward, Ao Zhu and Mu Qianshan hesitated for a moment, then also followed.
Only Nezha followed Jiang Yuan without any hesitation.
“Is that girl not here?”
As they walked, Wenren Fangyan asked Jiang Yuan curiously.
“She still has things to do at the Human Clan Gathering Place, so she hasn't come yet.”
“I see.”
Wenren Fangyan nodded, without any suspicion.
However, what he didn't know was that Shi Ji was also here at this moment.
Right behind Jiang Yuan and the others.
The reason Wenren Fangyan couldn't see Shi Ji was entirely because Shi Ji was inside a formation.
The second formation of the Ten Absolute Formation!
The Earthly Flames Formation!
The Earthly Flames Formation is a killing formation that can be hidden, waiting like a trap for enemies to enter.
The formation is hidden; once enemies enter, wave the red banner, thunder roars from above, and raging flames erupt from below. Anyone who enters this formation will never be resurrected!
As a grand formation that can be hidden, placing it here for Shi Ji to continuously summon the Bone Spirit Army was simply perfect.
After all, this was just a plain with no cover, so openly summoning the Bone Spirit Army was naturally not feasible.
Since Jiang Yuan wanted to eliminate all the foreign races here, the Bone Spirit Army summoned naturally couldn't be small.
But if too many were summoned, it would inevitably attract everyone's attention.
At this moment, the Earthly Flames Formation perfectly solved this problem.
Furthermore, the location of the Earthly Flames Formation was far from the gathered area, so naturally, no one would discover it.
What if other people passed by here and accidentally entered?
That would be even easier to handle.
Except for the Human Clan, kill them directly!
Anyway, one more or one less didn't matter.
Shi Ji alone was already equivalent to a regular small team.
After all, the Undead Enslavement she summoned was not weak at all, even when facing the Undead, who were also a special race.
In fact, with Shi Ji's buffs, she could even gain a slight advantage.
Not to mention the attacks inherent in the Earthly Flames Formation itself and the summoned Bone Spirit Army.
In such a situation, as long as one trespassed into the grand formation, unless they had some special means of escape, they would certainly die there.
That's why Jiang Yuan didn't hesitate when Wenren Fangyan invited them into the inner circle.
And the reason Ao Zhu and Mu Qianshan hesitated was their concern about Shi Ji being left alone here.
After all, both of them knew that Shi Ji was preparing for a major event.
In this situation, it was clear that Mu Qianshan and Ao Zhu still didn't fully trust Shi Ji's strength.
Unlike Jiang Yuan and Nezha, who left directly without any hesitation.
After Jiang Yuan and the others followed Wenren Fangyan into the inner circle, the other races in the outer circle also gave Jiang Yuan and his group strange looks.
Just now, a Beastmen fellow wanted to enter the inner circle, but he was killed as soon as he stepped in.
The one who attacked was that fellow from the Demon Race.
“How can such an inferior race be worthy of standing with me?”
The Demon Race's words clearly made many Beastmen present very dissatisfied.
However, they weren't foolish; they naturally understood that this was a “rule” set by all the races in the inner circle!
Didn't the Demon Race violate the rule, yet no one attacked him?
Even Ancient Capital Si Dan of the Undead, who proposed this rule, said nothing.
After the Demon Race's act of 'killing the chicken to scare the monkeys,' no other race dared to enter the inner circle.
Unless you felt your strength was sufficient.
You could even directly defeat that fellow from the Demon Race to prove that your strength qualified you to stand in the inner circle.
But unfortunately, no such person or race had appeared yet.
After all, the Demon Race's strength was universally acknowledged as powerful.
Especially the Demon Race's innate abilities.
Their innate abilities allowed them to hide well in shadows, becoming powerful assassins.
And this concealment wasn't just for themselves; they could even hide arrows shot from their bows within the shadows.
When this ability was used well, even in sunlight, only a faint outline could be seen.
Rather than a shadow talent, it was more like a light and shadow talent.
In this situation, races like the Beastmen, whose individual strength wasn't very strong but whose numbers were vast, feared the Demon Race.
“Oh, since when did the Demon Race and the Human Clan have such a good relationship, personally bringing a Human Clan over?”
“Would an inferior race like the Human Clan also stand with me?”
Justina smiled, his black and red skin revealing a row of sharp fangs, making his image even more terrifying.
However, facing Justina's provocation, neither Wenren Fangyan nor Jiang Yuan had any intention of responding to him; they completely ignored him and walked past him.
“I'm talking to you!”
Seeing that no one was paying attention to him, Justina's expression instantly changed. He raised a hand, preparing to grab Jiang Yuan.
“Bang!”
The next second, the Fire Tipped Spear directly struck Justina's chest, sending him staggering back two steps.
“Next time you reach out, I'll chop off your claws.”
Nezha's icy gaze fell on Justina, as he coldly rebuked.
“You bastard!”
Justina's skin turned even redder, but his figure gradually disappeared.
He was clearly enraged by Nezha and was preparing to launch an attack.
“Our Human Clan is relatively peace-loving, so it's better not to start a fight now, don't you think?”
Jiang Yuan smiled, and with a wave of his hand, the Linglong Pagoda appeared above Justina's head. Then, golden Energy emerged, directly trapping Justina within the pagoda.
Now was not the time to kill; the moment had not yet arrived.
Shi Ji was not yet ready, and the others had not all arrived. If a major battle were to break out now, although he was confident he could kill a batch, it wouldn't maximize the benefits.
Furthermore, our Human Clan is the most peace-loving race.
However, when faced with provocation, if you don't give the other party a show of force, you'll be seen as a pushover.
So, before coming over, Jiang Yuan had already told Nezha that unless there were special circumstances, they shouldn't kill the opponent.
Unless the opponent couldn't even withstand one of your attacks.
It was thanks to Jiang Yuan's words that Nezha acted as he did; otherwise, the Fire Tipped Spear would have directly pierced Justina's chest or throat.
“You dog!”
Justina was very indignant about being trapped by the Linglong Pagoda and immediately launched an attack on it.
However, Justina was also at the Xuan Xiao Late Stage, so his attacks naturally couldn't cause any damage to the Linglong Pagoda.
Watching Justina continuously attack the Linglong Pagoda without any effect, the expressions of people from other races when they looked at Jiang Yuan also changed.
Especially the Undead and Mechanical Race, Ancient Capital Si Dan and Baiyan Xiude, who had fought with Jiang Yuan before.
They had originally thought Jiang Yuan was just an Amplification Card Master, a role similar to a commander or strategist.
But they didn't expect that the single move he revealed now would leave them somewhat helpless.
Although they didn't particularly like Justina, they highly acknowledged his attack capabilities as a Demon Race member.
Yet, even Justina's attacks caused no damage to the Linglong Pagoda.
This made them realize that Jiang Yuan, the captain of this team, was clearly not as they had previously guessed.
But why didn't he make a move?
Was it because he felt they weren't worthy?
Wusun Zhongliang, Baiyan Xiude, and the others couldn't help but feel a surge of unprovoked anger when they thought of this.
However, when they recalled the white puppy Jiang Yuan had summoned in a past encounter, which had eliminated most of the Undead and Bone Spirit Army with just one attack, a chill ran down their spines.
If Jiang Yuan's combat power was even more terrifying than Nezha's…
Wusun Zhongliang's heart sank as he looked at Wenren Fangyan, who was in front of Jiang Yuan.
And Wenren Fangyan, seeing Jiang Yuan's move, clearly realized this as well, and his expression changed slightly.
However, very quickly, Wenren Fangyan and Wusun Zhongliang's expressions returned to normal.
They still had means of escape.
There should be no problem.
The Demon Race members breathed a sigh of relief, but Baiyan Xiude of the Mechanical Race was already thinking of escaping.
After all, his grievances with Jiang Yuan and his group were not just once or twice.
One direct confrontation, one sneak attack.
Plus this time.
However, this time should be fine; the final outcome should be a peaceful resolution, and these First Sequence Races wouldn't clash.
Furthermore, he wasn't alone now; he still had two other Mechanical Race geniuses behind him.
Even if they couldn't win, running should be no problem.
Mechanical Race members are broadly divided into two categories.
One is the mechanical stream, and the other is the mecha stream.
The mechanical stream is like Baiyan Xiude, who uses cards to summon various mechanical creatures and mechanical weapons to fight.
The mecha stream is like the Human Clan's Mecha Card Master, fighting while fully covered in mecha.
However, both of these styles, no matter which one, involve individuals fighting, unlike the Human Clan, Demon Race, and Beastmen, who form small teams to fight.
After all, whether it's the mechanical stream's individual army formation or the mecha stream's single-person army-breaking, they are the kind that don't need teammates.
Of course, in some special circumstances, they will also unite.
Just like now, they represent their race.
Representing their race in fighting against other races.
Although there is no cooperation in combat, outside of combat, they are still publicly considered a team.
Thinking of the two mecha stream geniuses behind him, Baiyan Xiude's face once again showed a confident smile.
Just then, Jiang Yuan's gaze had also turned towards Baiyan Xiude.
The moment their eyes met, Baiyan Xiude also gave Jiang Yuan a brilliant smile.
Jiang Yuan was stunned for a moment when he saw Baiyan Xiude's smile, but soon he also forced a smile back at Baiyan Xiude.
“You can still smile at me, you really think I didn't recognize you, do you?”
Jiang Yuan smiled, having already decided that the first arrow from the Qiankun Bow and Zhentian Arrow would be used to kill this guy.
The Zhentian Arrow's three arrows have too long a cooldown. If used now, they would only be usable again after twenty-four hours.
Moreover, they cool down together, meaning all three arrows must be used before the 24-hour cooldown begins.
In this situation, the three Zhentian Arrows must definitely be used to kill powerful individuals.
Just like Baiyan Xiude, the Mechanical Race's genius.
And Baiyan Xiude naturally didn't know that by simply smiling at Jiang Yuan, he had been marked as a kill target by Jiang Yuan.
“Are there only these few races here now?”
After Jiang Yuan looked around, he saw only a few races.
The Undead (under the leadership of the Undead Royal Family's Ancient Capital Si Dan, the Undead barely counted as a First Sequence Race).
The Mechanical Race, Demon Race, Human Clan, Element Spirit Race, Demon Race, and the Angel Clan.
It had to be said, the Angel Clan girl was truly beautiful, living up to their Angel Clan title.
Even Jiang Yuan was momentarily stunned when he first saw the Angel Clan girl.
However, Jiang Yuan quickly recovered, as Shi Ji was not bad either.
But unfortunately, Shi Ji had a task now; otherwise, standing here with the Angel Clan girl, their looks would be evenly matched.
However, neither the Troll Race nor the Giant Race had arrived yet.
Had they decided not to come, or had they been eliminated by Jiang Yuan and his group last time and fled?
“Well, after all, the dongtian secret treasure eruption has just begun, and many races haven't arrived yet.”
Wenren Fangyan nodded, said something to Jiang Yuan, and then returned to their Demon Race's position.
Jiang Yuan also chose a relatively large empty space and occupied it.
One must know that their Human Clan also had quite a number of people.
Occupying a larger area was quite good.
After Jiang Yuan and his group settled down, the other races in the inner circle also quieted down, silently watching the light clusters continuously falling from the shattered sky, with Justina's roars occasionally echoing in their ears.
As time slowly passed, the Angel Clan girl, the Element Spirit Race captain, and the Mechanical Race and Demon Race members gradually felt their hearts grow heavy.
Could this small pagoda last so long?
And for such a long time, it had been continuously attacked by Justina, yet it remained unchanged.
This terrifying ability to trap people made their hearts turn cold.
If they encountered such a situation, could they escape?
Putting aside everything else, Justina's attack capability was considered top-tier among them.
Yet, he hadn't been able to break this small pagoda for such a long time.
Looking at Jiang Yuan, there was another similar, but seemingly more layered, golden small pagoda above his head.
Did that small pagoda also have the same function?
“If we were trapped by that golden small pagoda, could we escape?”
A moment later, Tantai Shaoyang finally couldn't help but quietly ask Wenren Fangyan beside him.
One must know that he was also an assassin-type professional.
Similar to Justina.
But Justina was trapped and unable to escape, what about him?
Furthermore, could this small pagoda only be used to trap people?
Did it have no attack capabilities?
Each race present had an answer to this question in their hearts.
How could it not have attack capabilities!
It's just that the Human Clan person hadn't displayed the attack capabilities of this small pagoda yet!
