Chapter 320

Under the night sky, a black tide surged forward at high speed, its killing intent soaring!

On the other side, clad in the pale golden Cloud Dream Gold-Threaded Robe, Li Fei held his saber in one hand and charged straight into this black tide.

Both sides accelerated, and when they were less than a hundred meters apart, a black evil energy transformed into a dragon, the first to tear toward Li Fei!

This evil energy was the first to impact Li Fei's mind.

Li Fei discovered that the evil energy catalyzed by the Imperial Army's military formation was surprisingly similar to the 【Blood Might God】 he had created himself; both combined the power of intent with virtual thoughts!

"No wonder the Imperial Army's evil energy specifically counters arts while not fearing martial artists. Did Lin Tianyi borrow the power of the Imperial Army to walk the path of dual cultivation of law and martial arts?"

Even as he was about to face the enemy, Li Fei still had the leisure to ponder these things.

The mental impact brought by the evil energy caused Li Fei no effect; he exerted the Hunyuan Star Armor and then swung his saber to slash at the black dragon tearing toward him.

Bang!!!

A sharp roar erupted in the air, and huge waves of air rolled up the dust.

The Hunyuan Star Armor on Li Fei's body was shattered in one blow!

Lu Wenxing's face turned pale at the sight, and it was only when he saw Li Fei still standing tall, not even retreating a single step, that he breathed a sigh of relief.

The next second, the black tide arrived.

Li Fei lunged forward, slashing out with both hands, and a brilliant golden saber light struck the black evil energy.

This slash was like cutting into a surging wave; after the blade broke through the wave, continuous waves surged forward, with layers upon layers of internal energy!

This layer of evil energy was the "protective internal energy" of this Imperial Cavalry unit.

Li Fei slashed out, and the Hunyuan Jin Gang Energy on the Ghost-Slaying Saber was soon exhausted, but his saber momentum did not end; the immense power drove the Ghost-Slaying Saber to completely shatter the black tide before him!

Behind the black tide, an Imperial Cavalryman charged over like a gale, slashing at Li Fei's neck.

This Imperial Cavalryman originally only had the cultivation of the late Qi Transformation stage, but under the blessing of the evil energy and military formation, the power of this slash was enough to threaten a Foundation Establishment powerhouse!

It was just that this slash was still too slow in Li Fei's eyes.

He slashed at the head of the opponent's mount first, the immense force causing the head armor of this second-grade exotic beast to cave inward, its two front legs bending downward, and it knelt on the spot!

The rider on the horse lunged forward, switching to holding the saber with both hands, and slashed out with all his might.

These Imperial Cavalrymen had blood-red eyes and seemed to have no human emotions at all, knowing neither fear nor pain.

Such an army was undoubtedly the most terrifying war machine!

Li Fei's eyes were calm as he raised the Ghost-Slaying Saber and swept it across.

Bang!

Li Fei's saber arrived first, and the rider on the horse was sent flying to the right, half his head shattered, his corpse striking the Imperial Cavalryman on the right.

Li Fei exerted force beneath his feet, taking the momentum to charge horizontally to the left, slamming his left shoulder into the mount of the Imperial Cavalryman on the left, sending the rider, the exotic beast, and the heavy armor—a weight of over three thousand catties—flying horizontally!

All this was completed in the blink of an eye; the two sides crossed, and the Imperial Cavalry left behind one corpse on the ground, with two more riders knocked to the ground.

Throughout the process, Li Fei had been enduring the mental impact of the evil energy, but he remained completely unaffected.

Li Fei paused, then suddenly turned to chase after the Imperial Cavalry that had passed him.

From extreme speed to extreme stillness, and then back to extreme speed, the whole process was fluid, and Li Fei caught up with this Imperial Cavalry unit in an instant.

At the same time, an identical Li Fei "split" from his body, followed by a second, a third...

In the blink of an eye, five Li Feis each killed five Imperial Cavalrymen!

These five Imperial Cavalrymen had no time to turn around and could only turn to slash.

Under the assistance of the evil energy, these five Imperial Cavalrymen, who were only at the Body Tempering stage, all erupted with the combat power of Martial Masters!

The movements of the five "Li Feis" were identical:

Without dodging or evading, they let the opponent's saber slash into their chests while they simultaneously slashed into the opponent's chest!

The main body of Li Fei blocked the slash directly with the Hunyuan Star Armor, while simultaneously slashing the Imperial Cavalryman on the horse into two halves, armor and all.

The four clones he had split off did not dissipate after being struck by the blades; the blades pierced through the clones' chests, and then these clones slashed all four Imperial Cavalrymen off their horses!

Under normal circumstances, the clones condensed by Li Fei using 【Ghost Foot】 should not have such strong defensive and explosive power.

But Li Fei had strengthened 【Ghost Foot】!

He had consumed 15 Blood Souls to exert 【Blood Rage】 when leaving the city; this was his current physical limit.

When condensing the clones, he had exerted the Jin Gang Seal: Dragon Elephant, doubling his own strength.

The clones condensed by 【Ghost Foot】 possessed 30% of the main body's strength; with the 【Blood Rage】 of 15 Blood Souls doubled, even at only 30%, the strength had already reached the level of a Martial Master!

Not only that, Li Fei had also used 【Blood Evil】, injecting a strand of blood evil energy into each clone.

Li Fei already had the experience of fusing blood evil energy with his own innate Qi to form a brand-new internal energy, so the blood evil energy and the clones combined perfectly!

After incorporating the powerful blood evil energy, not only was the corrosive characteristic of the clones enhanced, but their own defensive power also grew exponentially, making them not so easily dispersed.

Li Fei condensed four clones, each incorporating blood evil energy converted from ten Blood Souls!

Previously, he had not dared to easily use the Ten Thousand Blood Pearl because there were Martial Masters and even Grandmasters watching.

But now there were no such figures, so he used it unscrupulously!

Previously at the Martial Arts Exchange Tournament, he had shown the advantage of clones in quantity.

This time he hadn't brought so many pills capable of replenishing innate Qi and couldn't condense so many clones, so he gave up on quantity and chose to pursue quality!

After five more Imperial Cavalrymen were resolved, the remaining Imperial Cavalry responded rapidly.

Another black tide appeared, sweeping toward the five Li Feis.

Li Fei immediately exerted Dao Energy—【Red Sound Fire Jin Gang Phase】.

A golden diamond dharma image over ten meters tall appeared out of thin air, surrounded by flames and circled by white heavenly dragons.

This was just a mental hallucination; in reality, it was layers of internal energy protecting Li Fei and his four clones.

The black tide broke Li Fei's 【Red Sound Fire Jin Gang Phase】, but the remaining killing power was no longer enough to shatter Li Fei's clones.

Behind the tide, dozens of Imperial Cavalrymen had completed their turn and charged toward the five Li Feis together.

Li Fei led his clones to meet them, splitting off two more clones while running.

His main body charged at the very front, slashing out, a point of light appearing at the tip of the saber, then erupting into countless rays of light, completely tearing the darkness around him to shreds!

Dao Energy—【Infinite Light Fire】!

The connection between the two Dao Energies was smooth and natural; this was a means only possessed by a powerhouse at the peak of the Foundation Establishment stage!

This move, 【Infinite Light Fire】, destroyed the protective black tide around the dozen or so Imperial Cavalrymen ahead, and then Li Fei collided head-on with the opponent, leading his clones.

In this round of charging, Li Fei was struck by three sabers and slashed three Imperial Cavalrymen to death!

His six clones were all shattered!

However, these six clones continued to slash even after their heads were cut off, slashing six Imperial Cavalrymen off their horses.

And after the clones were shattered, they exploded into a strand of evil energy, enveloping the surrounding Imperial Cavalrymen and their exotic beast mounts!

Incorporating the blood evil energy converted from ten Blood Souls, the power of this evil energy was astonishing, and its lethality to living beings was even more terrifying!

The skin and eyes of the Imperial Cavalrymen exposed outside their armor were instantly corroded away!

The exotic beast mounts let out earth-shattering screams, falling to the ground and rolling wildly.

In this round of charging, Li Fei had used six clones to trade for a full thirteen Imperial Cavalrymen!

This was something sixty Martial Masters at the Qi Transformation stage might not have been able to do!

Because Martial Masters at the Qi Transformation stage could not withstand the mental impact of the evil energy, and when facing these Imperial Cavalrymen, they couldn't even launch a normal attack.

But Li Fei's clones possessed his powerful mental strength, were unafraid of the mental impact of the evil energy for a short time, had no vital parts, and could turn into "biochemical bombs" after death!

On the city wall, Lu Wenxing, seeing this scene, was shocked.

Through the live television broadcast, he had seen Li Fei's clash with Gan Jingcheng at the Martial Arts Exchange Tournament and knew Li Fei's clones were very powerful.

But he hadn't expected Li Fei's clones to be this powerful!

Initially, Li Fei's clones could at most rival martial artists at the Body Tempering stage, but now the clones could rival Martial Masters, and their defensive power was several times stronger!

Was this really 【Ghost Shadow】?

This was almost catching up to the Clone Supernatural Ability!

In Lu Wenxing's shocked eyes, Li Fei condensed five clones again, once more launching a charge against the Imperial Cavalry.

This time, these Imperial Cavalrymen specifically changed their charging formation, thickening the formation.

Li Fei led the five clones, charging into the fray without hesitation!

He was the first to chisel his way in, with the four clones following closely behind.

This time, the four clones did not go to kill the enemy but turned into "shields" by Li Fei's side, blocking blades for him.

Ultimately, Li Fei killed his way through the Imperial Cavalry's formation alone, leaving the opponent with a few more corpses!

After these Imperial Cavalrymen catalyzed the evil energy, both their offense and defense were enough to rival a powerhouse at the peak of the Foundation Establishment stage.

Moreover, they could continuously impact one's mind, and combined with the cavalry charge, it was endless, giving one no chance to catch their breath!

Even a powerhouse at the peak of the Foundation Establishment stage would easily be killed without a chance to "catch their breath" if surrounded, eventually revealing a flaw and dying in defeat.

But Li Fei's mental defense was powerful to begin with, and with the Ten Thousand Blood Pearl sharing the damage, he was completely unafraid of the mental impact of the evil energy.

This directly neutralized the Imperial Army's strongest trump card.

Plus, Li Fei had powerful clones, meaning he wasn't fighting alone.

The clones could help him kill the enemy, help him block damage, and use self-destruction to create space and fight for time for him to "catch his breath."

And every time a clone was shattered, the exploding evil energy could take away at least one Imperial Cavalryman.

This was a forced one-for-one trade!

Next, the Imperial Cavalry adopted a "three-three" charge, with every three riders as a group, coordinating with the black tide of evil energy catalyzed by everyone's joint military formation, pouncing on Li Fei wave after wave, forming an endless attack!

Li Fei continuously condensed clones, using them to bear damage for himself and using their self-destruction to create space, fighting for time to "catch his breath."

He was, of course, struck at times, but he remained unscathed and standing tall.

After several rounds of this, the fifty-plus Imperial Cavalrymen were killed until only a dozen or so remained!

"What kind of monster is this?"

In the car behind, the middle-aged man holding the imitation Daluo Order was in disbelief.

The other party had almost wiped out the entire Imperial Cavalry unit alone; how could the rest of the battle be fought?

The martial artists, inspectors, and garrison soldiers he had brought from Jin Shan Prefecture City had all lost their morale by now.

And without the Imperial Cavalry, relying on the rest of these people was definitely not enough to break the city.

"Retreat!"

He decisively issued the order.

And so, the menacing convoy began to reverse.

By the time this convoy finished turning around, Li Fei had already resolved all the remaining dozen or so Imperial Cavalrymen!

He looked at the convoy speeding away and did not pursue.

Turning to look in the direction of the Chongcheng city wall, Li Fei returned step by step to the line where he had inserted his saber sheath just now.

From the beginning to the end of this battle, he hadn't retreated behind the line where the sheath was located!

Shing—

Li Fei sheathed his saber.

At the same time, a huge cheer erupted from the city wall ahead:

"Might!"

"Might!"

"Might!"

Everyone on the city wall shouted loudly for Li Fei together.

This was the unique way the Great Lan Dynasty's army celebrated after winning a battle.

A smile appeared on Li Fei's face as he raised the Ghost-Slaying Saber in his hand to signal to the people on the wall.

Under the night sky, the golden-clad youth held his battle saber high.

Lu Wenxing looked at this scene, and a strong intuition suddenly arose in his heart:

"If a true war breaks out in the future, this child will surely shine on the battlefield and shape a legend!"

At this moment, Lu Wenxing seemed to see the God of War of the future!
