Chapter 504
Looking at this group of men in black in front of him, Zheng He's face gradually became solemn.
He did not know what powerful faction existed in the Nine Provinces that could suddenly produce such a group of powerhouses who had stepped into the Earth Immortal Realm.
You must know that as long as one steps into the Earth Immortal Realm, even if one only becomes a person at the Earth Immortal * Mortal Realm, they would be a rare existence in the martial arts world.
And as long as someone steps into the Earth Immortal Realm, any faction would throw an olive branch to them; powerhouses who have stepped into the Earth Immortal Realm, people like them, would become honored guests in any faction, becoming high-level leaders or secret weapons of this faction.
So in any faction, people at the Earth Immortal Realm would definitely be very rare.
But if a faction could suddenly produce one person at the Earth Immortal * Heavenly Man Realm and seven or eight people at the Earth Immortal * Mortal Realm, just like the men in black in front of Zheng He.
Then this faction would be too terrifying.
Zheng He was still observing the movements of this group of men in black and calculating the probability of his success if he fought against them.
Although the leading man in black had similar cultivation to Zheng He, and there were many Earth Immortals at lower realms behind him.
But Zheng He had a divine weapon like the Yongle Sword in his hand.
If it were truly a life-and-death battle, Zheng He had the confidence that he would defeat this group of men in black in front of him, but he would definitely suffer extremely serious injuries.
Moreover, through Zheng He's observation, Zheng He discovered that the dagger in the hand of the leading man in black, that is, Tianquan, must not be an ordinary object.
That dagger could not only emit waves of dark light and tear the air around the dagger, but it could also withstand a strike from the Yongle Sword without breaking.
This proved the extraordinariness of the dagger; at least these could explain that the dagger Tianquan was holding was definitely sharp and extremely hard!
If Zheng He were accidentally stabbed in a vital spot by Tianquan holding the dagger during the battle, I'm afraid that neither Zheng He's protective Qi nor his internal energy would be able to block this exquisite dagger!
After much thought, Zheng He finally decided to fight this group of men in black first and kill a few Earth Immortals at lower realms.
Just as a punishment for Tianquan's assassination of him just now, and to let the faction behind this group of men in black know that he, Zheng He, was definitely not to be trifled with; if they wanted to kill him, they must make this faction pay an unimaginable price!
After collecting the interest, Zheng He thought about leaving this battlefield first and returning to the Great Ming.
After all, the various elements and energy in this battlefield were chaotic, which had already reduced his perception ability; if he kept being watched by such a group of assassins, who knows when he would be tricked and stabbed in a vital spot by Tianquan holding the dagger.
After all, although Zheng He was able to defend against Tianquan's assassination once just now, this did not mean he could continue to defend against Tianquan's future assassinations of him.
"Who are we???"
"Does this still need to be asked?? Naturally, we are the ones who want to kill you!"
Tianquan felt a sense of amusement after hearing Zheng He's words, and then he said to Zheng He with boundless killing intent.
Subsequently, Tianquan led his subordinates from the North Dipper Hall to surround Zheng He one after another.
Ying Ziyu, who had been in the shadows, had already put on the mask representing Night Watcher Zero; he had not yet taken action to drag these powerhouses from the Nine Provinces who had been watching the great battle into the water, when he saw Tianquan and the others assassinating Zheng He and their current battle with Zheng He.
Watching Tianquan and the others from the North Dipper Hall of the Zhou Tian Xing Dou Sect currently engaged in battle, Ying Ziyu smiled lightly in his heart.
"It seems that the plan of the Zhou Tian Xing Dou Sect to assassinate the guardian of the Great Ming, the Three-Treasure Eunuch Zheng He, has also been launched."
"Once Zheng He dies, the Great Ming will truly fall into chaos."
"By then, my subsequent plans can also be fully launched!"
Ying Ziyu calculated lightly in his heart.
On the other side, Zheng He looked at the men in black surrounding him; he had originally wanted to follow his original plan to rely on his own high-level cultivation and the miraculousness of the Yongle Sword in his hand to kill a few enemies at the Earth Immortal * Mortal Realm in seconds.
But when he took action, he was astonished to find that no matter which direction he rushed toward, Tianquan, who was holding a dagger blooming with black light, could arrive at the first moment.
And those men in black with slightly lower realms would immediately move toward the man in black closest to them the moment he rushed over and use mutually complementary techniques to maximize their lethality to block Zheng He's path forward, and then drag it out until Tianquan arrived.
As Zheng He clashed with Tianquan's dagger with the Yongle Sword time and time again, Zheng He finally confirmed.
The grade of the dagger Tianquan was holding would definitely not be lower than the Yongle Sword in his hand; at the very least, it was a weapon of the same grade as the Yongle Sword.
And Tianquan was even more of a top-tier powerhouse at the peak of the Earth Immortal * Heavenly Man Realm, just like him!
As for the remaining men in black with slightly lower realms, they must have also undergone systematic training.
They had a separate set of ways to deal with high-level martial artists like him.
Thinking of these, a trace of gloom suddenly appeared in Zheng He's eyes.
"It seems that this group of people has long been prepared to deal with martial artists at the Earth Immortal * Heavenly Man Realm like me!"
"I wonder what their purpose is?"
Zheng He thought in his heart.
The current Zheng He had already given up his original plan to kill a few martial artists at the Earth Immortal * Mortal Realm in seconds.
If he kept being dragged on here, then when Zheng He's internal energy was almost exhausted, Tianquan would give him a fatal blow; maybe by then, Zheng He would really have to fall here.
So Zheng He now planned to break out first, and then return to the Great Ming to discuss this incident in the long run!
Just when Zheng He was thinking about how to break out of the siege of this group of men in black.
Zhu Wushi suddenly rushed into this battle between him and the men in black.
"Hurry and go! I'll hold them off for you here!"
Zhu Wushi shouted at Zheng He while operating the Power-Absorbing Great Art to form a very fierce internal energy attack.
The reason Zhu Wushi dared to rush in and fight with this group of men in black who all had the opportunity to kill Zheng He.
Was precisely because he had already recognized that this group of people was none other than Tianquan and his party from the North Dipper Hall of the Zhou Tian Xing Dou Sect!
Since it was Tianquan and the others, Zhu Wushi was not afraid of being injured in the battle here; after all, they had already reached an agreement and started cooperating.
And another reason was that Zhu Wushi came here to gain Zheng He's trust.
Only by gaining Zheng He's trust could Zhu Wushi have the opportunity to approach Zheng He and assassinate him!
