Chapter 363: 360: Breaking Through Four Levels!_1
As expected, the further up one went, the trickier it became; the quantity and level were directly proportional.
You faced as many sand soldiers as the level you reached; currently, at the third level, he was confronted with three sand soldiers!
You may consider yourself a master among your peers, but each sand soldier you face is a master among their peers. Moreover, you may be able to defeat one, but can you defeat two? And if not two, how about three? Most crucially, these sand soldiers are extremely well coordinated!
Their target, the only thing in their eyes, is the intruder—nothing else.
As soon as the sand soldiers were gathered, they simultaneously rushed towards Yang Chen. Either they would die, or Yang Chen would withdraw!
Yang Chen had no intention of withdrawing; his Thunder Rush immediately swept out, wanting to fight the sand soldiers to victory or defeat. However, he soon discovered that these three sand soldiers were extremely well-coordinated. One in front, one to the left, and one to the right—directly breaking through Yang Chen’s Thunder Rush.
Immediately afterward, the three sand soldiers, at a very high speed—as well as having pincer attacks, feints, and main attacks—charged towards Yang Chen and killed him.
Yang Chen felt a chill down his spine. He had originally planned to use Thunder Rush and his skill to defeat these three sand soldiers after spending some time, but who knew that when these three sand soldiers cooperate, it would be far more formidable than one plus one. The threat had increased at least three to four times since the second level.
After just three rounds, Yang Chen was already exhausted.
He found it increasingly difficult to keep up with the sand soldiers’ rhythm. Eventually, with a loud boom!
A burst of sound was born, followed by a layer of Demonic Fire emerging from Yang Chen’s surroundings.
When the Demonic Fire was born, it directly engulfed the surroundings, and the sand soldier who was about to hit Yang Chen was incinerated into ash when it got closest to Yang Chen.
Now being forced to use this Demonic Fire, Yang Chen reluctantly made the decision. After all, he had almost been hit by the sand soldiers during the previous battles. It was extremely far-fetched to use Thunderbolt Style and Forbidden Purple Dragon Spear alone to win against these sand soldiers.
He was well-aware that if he were to be hit, the injuries would be grave.
He made a decisive move, taking out the Demonic Fire and, without saying a word, burned one sand soldier.
With one sand soldier dead, the two remaining sand soldiers couldn’t pose a threat. Yang Chen’s Demonic Fire didn’t last more than a hundred breaths, and the two sand soldiers were reduced to ashes.
Afterward, the desert disappeared, and Yang Chen entered the fourth level.
This time, clearing the third level and entering the fourth level took about the time it takes for a single cup of tea.
This stunned the geniuses outside the Trial Tower in the Beishan Main City.
What’s going on? Didn’t Yang Chen have a hard time passing the third level just now? How come when he reached the fourth level, it seems like he suddenly received a boost of energy and completed it in less than the time it takes for a cup of tea? That’s illogical; no one has ever heard of spending less time on a higher level than the previous one.
Yang Chen, that’s how he is.
“I guess it must be like the last flicker of a dying lamp.”
“Maybe this kid lucked out and found some secret technique, but it doesn’t matter. The fourth level is a watershed; Yang Chen will know how desperate it is to face more than four sand soldiers. He will also realize that no matter how high your Martial Arts Cultivation level is, or how strong you are, it won’t help!”
For now, Yang Chen didn’t care what others thought of him.
It was because, after breaking through the third level and refining the rewarded Creation Divine Aura, he naturally advanced, sitting down to impact the Ling Wu Realm Seventh Layer.
As long as a trace of Creation Divine Aura was not refined, the prohibition would remain rigid and not create sand soldiers, providing another loophole.
Yang Chen left a trace of Creation Divine Aura unrefined and sat on the ground to calmly impact the Ling Wu Realm Seventh Layer.
Not daring to be careless, he made several other security measures to impact the realm.
Half an hour later…
An extremely powerful aura gradually spread out.
Following that, Yang Chen opened his eyes.
“Even after refining the Innate True Qi, even the momentum of upgrading the realm is so incredible. Fortunately, this is inside the Trial Tower; no matter how big the movement is, the outside world can’t sense it. At this point, it’s time to break through the fourth level.” Yang Chen thought to himself.
He refined the last trace of Creation Divine Aura, and not long after, the desert emerged. Following that, four sand soldiers gathered from the depths of the earth, each holding a long spear, with majestic figures and astonishing aura.
“Indeed, there are four.” Yang Chen gradually confirmed his guess, feeling the horror of the Trial Tower. However, having reached this point, he had no intention of backing down. Grasping the Demonic Fire, he coldly said, “Four sand soldiers, bring it on!”
The sand soldiers couldn’t understand Yang Chen’s words, but when they sensed the intruder, they didn’t hesitate to rush towards Yang Chen!
The four sand soldiers were formidable, and as Yang Chen’s Martial Arts Cultivation improved, their Martial Arts Cultivation also advanced to Ling Wu Realm Seventh Layer. When they took action, the sand and dust around them surged, a storm swept through, causing the sandy mist to fill the sky, making people apprehensive.
Yang Chen, watching the four sand soldiers take action from the distance, couldn’t help but say, “Four sand soldiers, even more coordinated than the three just now…”
He felt the sand soldiers’ difficulty, which far exceeded the difficulty at the third level. The next moment, he suddenly released the Demonic Fire.
Layers of Demonic Fire roared out, and Yang Chen, using the Taichi True Scripture he had cultivated, manipulated the Demonic Fire. At the same time, he dealt with the four sand soldiers, which can be said to be both offensive and defensive, leaving the four sand soldiers at a loss.
This also made Yang Chen feel the importance of Fire Control.
The four sand soldiers had an extremely sharp and varied fighting style. There were attackers and defenders, and if he couldn’t properly protect himself while attacking, it would be difficult to win. So he had to control the Demonic Fire to attack on one side while protecting himself on the other.
If he didn’t have enough experience controlling fire, it would be impossible. This made Yang Chen secretly celebrate the importance of the Taichi True Scripture; without it, where would he find the fire control skills in a short time?
But even with Yang Chen’s mature fire control experience and techniques, dealing with four sand soldiers at once was still very difficult. Defense and offense were integrated, and even a slight mistake would allow the sand soldiers to stab him.
Fortunately, Yang Chen was cautious and alert. He didn’t make any mistakes in controlling the layers of Demonic Fire, and he managed to defeat the four sand soldiers with great difficulty after about two hours of struggle, successfully breaking through the fourth level!
It was just when he passed the fourth level that the outside world fell into a frenzy.
