303: Appearances one after another
In the distance, Zong Zishui was wearing a rank 6 night suit that had the effect of concealing his Aura, but its effect was limited in front of a Golden Core, and he didn't intend to hide.
The item he held in his hand was indeed a sniper rifle; it was a custom-made rank 6 Magical Artifact that he had specifically commissioned an Artifact Refining player to create.
After he consumed Lifespan to nurture it, it already possessed some characteristics of a rank 5 Magic Treasure, and with a bit more resources and time, it could become a true Magic Treasure.
When he activated this sniper rifle, it was like unleashing a powerful killing move, capable of directly shattering an entire mountain range.
However, when it hit Ye Chun, it only slowed him down by half a beat, not appearing to be very serious.
"As expected of an Immortal Foundation and Golden Core achieved through the Nascent Soul method..."
Zong Zishui looked at Ye Chun from afar, his eyes filled with apprehension.
Just then, a figure appeared beside him.
That person wore armor emblazoned with star patterns, holding a large saber in his left hand and a shield in his right, exuding a strong battlefield Aura.
It was none other than the current captain of the Seiya Battle Team, whose in-game ID was "Qiu Shan."
Qiu Shan looked at Ye Chun, observed his injuries, and frowned, "Why is he only this lightly wounded?"
Zong Zishui waved his hand, "He is a Golden Core achieved through the Nascent Soul method, and who knows how high its rank is. It's already good that I could ambush him and injure him."
Qiu Shan's brows furrowed.
In this chaotic battle, the Thunder Team was aiming to seize the Fourth-Grade Natal Divine Power, and other battle teams and solo players also had this goal.
But Seiya was different.
Their objective was Ye Chun; they wanted to kill Ye Chun.
For this, they even reached an agreement with the Liu Zhuan Battle Team. Both sides would cooperate to kill Ye Chun, and the Fourth-Grade Natal Divine Power would then be given to the Liu Zhuan Battle Team.
In their plan, Wang Long of the Thunder Team would surely be the first to act, making a move against Ye Chun in advance.
Once Ye Chun was restrained, the only "sniper" among the Golden Core Cultivators would seize the opportunity to ambush, severely injuring Ye Chun, and then it would be a simple mop-up.
But Qiu Shan didn't expect that Zong Zishui's ambush would only lightly injure Ye Chun.
He couldn't help but say, "Captain Zong, why are you still playing with a sniper rifle in a Xuanhuan World? This thing is too trashy; it's completely unsuitable for a Xuanhuan World."
Zong Zishui smiled and shook his head, "What weapon I use isn't important. What's important is finding my own Dao. My Dao is on this gun; it can't be changed."
Qiu Shan was noncommittal, and his Aura began to rise. He seemed to be using some secret technique, as a layer of blood-red Qi mist formed armor around him.
Without needing further communication, the two quickly divided tasks.
Qiu Shan directly charged forward with his great saber, clashing with Ye Chun's long spear on the spot.
Boom!
The sniper rifle in the distance continued to exert its power, and a terrifying impact struck Ye Chun's shoulder, causing him to retreat two steps.
Zong Zishui held up the sniper rifle, his lips curving upward, his Spiritual Sense more focused than ever before.
The Cultivation Technique he practiced greatly enhanced his Spiritual Sense, even granting him a certain predictive ability, allowing him to pinpoint Ye Chun's position moments later, making his sniping impossible to guard against.
However, just as he was fully concentrated, his entire body suddenly trembled. His Spiritual Sense gave an early warning, and he quickly used an escape technique to shift his position.
He then saw a Flying Sword shimmering with flowing light flying from a distance, narrowly missing him.
Zong Zishui narrowed his eyes, unable to find the opponent's trace in such a short time.
The opponent's Flying Sword range was even farther than his sniper range?
...Even farther away.
The vice-captain of the Di Tu Battle Team wore a grey robe, appearing outwardly as an unpretentious swordsman, yet thousands of golden glowing Spiritual Qi Flying Swords hovered beside him.
His current in-game ID was "Jin Hua," named after the Cultivation Technique he practiced.
Di Tu had previously been dormant within the Great Jiang Dynasty, seizing many benefits when Great Jiang collapsed.
This included a variant version of the Golden Edge Emperor Qi Art.
It was modified by a Great Jiang Dynasty worship based on Sword Intent, replacing Dragon Qi and Emperor Qi with Sword Qi and Sword Intent, allowing non-royal members to cultivate it. It was named "Quenching Gold White Sword Art."
The Immortal Foundation also changed accordingly. The techniques he displayed were no longer the indestructible golden Dragon long blades, but rather myriad golden Sword Qi like a hundred flowers in bloom.
Jin Hua himself had undergone Reincarnation and restarted several times, finally using the best resources and the best Golden Finger to achieve a Breakthrough. Coupled with the Sword Intent he already possessed, he attained a rank 5 patterned Golden Core.
He was a true Nascent Soul seed.
Precisely because he had the hope of impacting the Nascent Soul, all the professional battle teams, including Liu Zhuan, believed that Di Tu would desperately contend for this Fourth-Grade Natal Divine Power.
However, Di Tu did the opposite, not planning to compete for the rank 4 Divine Ability, but instead taking the opportunity to hunt other Golden Core Cultivators.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh!
One golden Flying Sword after another pierced through the night, rapidly shooting towards Zong Zishui, aiming to kill this exposed sniper.
"How lively," Li Changfeng said, riding a Demon Body Realm Fire Wolf, looking at the Great River City gradually descending into chaos.
"Is it really okay for the main city to start fighting like this, Senior state-stabilizing seal?"
He looked to his side.
The state-stabilizing seal wore a Dragon robe and a crown, his expression unreadable.
At this moment, the state-stabilizing seal was in an excellent mood.
The chaos in Great River City was exactly what he needed.
A layout of his level, of course, couldn't have just one path. There were always multiple choices, multiple branches, and everything was under control.
If Ye Chun had honestly tried to curry favor with Tian Chi Ling, attempting to obtain the Natal Divine Power through Righteous Path methods, then the state-stabilizing seal would have found a way to leave him with an indelible memory, letting him know what it meant for a hero to fall for a beauty.
And now, Ye Chun used Evil Path methods, which then led to many player Golden Core Cultivators fighting over it, causing the destruction of the Tian Family and chaos in Great River City.
This was also within the state-stabilizing seal's expectations, and likewise, it was part of his plan. He was not flustered or worried at all.
When this chaotic battle ended, he would have corresponding arrangements to cast a shadow over Ye Chun's Dao Heart, or even completely shatter it.
Therefore, he could still calmly converse with Li Changfeng at this moment:
"Days are passing by, why hasn't the version update you mentioned appeared yet?"
A drop of cold sweat trickled down Li Changfeng's forehead, "It should be soon..."
The state-stabilizing seal flicked his sleeves, said nothing, and then quietly departed.
He didn't care about the lives of the countless players and natives in Great River City.
Li Changfeng looked at Great River City, where more and more Golden Core Cultivators were appearing, and couldn't help but think of the Golden Core Cultivators who had fought in the Great Jiang Treasure Vault before.
At that time, the state-stabilizing seal had directly intervened, killing all the Golden Core Cultivators, which meant the full strength of the player Golden Core Cultivators had not been exposed.
This time, however, was different. Everyone seemed to know that as long as they cooperated with the state-stabilizing seal's orders, the state-stabilizing seal wouldn't bother with their internal strife.
So, for the Fourth-Grade Natal Divine Power, the player Golden Core Cultivators completely erupted into chaotic battle, and some of their trump cards would likely be revealed.
"It's just a pity that for a battle of this caliber, other players, let alone live streaming it, can't even enter the combat zone."
Li Changfeng shook his head and turned to leave. He didn't want to be ambushed here by anyone.
