Chapter 338: Finally Seeing the White Strategy
You assist these Sheng Cheng Guards inside the city.
Gu Han glanced; these Sheng Cheng Guards were already enough to resist the sky‑covering giant stones.
After saying that, he prepared to rush out of the city.
But just as he moved, he saw the rubble in the distance suddenly start to move.
In just a breath or two, those broken stones assembled into huge black stone men!
These stone men were about a zhang tall, their destructive power not to be underestimated!
Seeing someone approach, the black stone men strode toward Gu Han and slammed a fist down.
"Watch out, young brother!"
The Sheng Cheng Guards on the street didn't know Gu Han's identity.
Seeing the black stone men attack Gu Han, he shouted anxiously, wanting to rush over to help.
But the next moment, he stood there stunned.
Bang!
All that could be seen was Gu Han's ordinary punch colliding with the stone man's huge fist.
The Sheng Cheng Guard had thought Gu Han would be blown away.
After all, it was a force even they dared not rashly resist!
But this stranger's face actually punched straight through the black stone man with a single blow!
"What… what level of power is this?"
The Sheng Cheng Guard swallowed, and by the time he came to his senses, Gu Han had smashed through the stone men's line and strode out of the city.
Dozens of black stone men fell before Gu Han, greatly easing the pressure on the Sheng Cheng Guards.
And Gu Han also gained some unexpected attributes from the stone men.
Stone Skin (Initial): Can absorb part of physical damage.
Gu Han glanced at the new effect on his panel and was somewhat surprised.
He had killed many Black Tide monsters, but they only gave him some Qi Blood, raising his realm a little.
This extra effect was something he'd never seen before.
Physical damage is easy to understand: it boosts one's defense when clashing head‑on.
Against flame‑type martial arts, it offers no special resistance.
"It seems these black stone men are better at physical defense."
A thought flashed through Gu Han's mind.
Given his terrifying attributes now, unless Black Tide constructs have percentage‑based resistance…
…otherwise, unless the Black Tide construct rivals a Martial King, almost nothing can withstand his punch!
Gu Han quickly bypassed the Sheng Cheng Guard's blocking force and arrived before the Sheng Cheng.
But he didn't notice that, after he left, many intersecting golden lines suddenly appeared in the city.
These golden lines wove into large nets, intercepting all the boulders that had fallen into the city.
At this moment, Gu Han was deeply shaken by the sight before him outside the city.
In the sky, countless giant birds with wingspans of several zhang blotted out the sun.
As they flapped their wings, they kicked up gales and sharp wind blades that attacked the Sheng Cheng Guards below.
In the distance, stone men larger than those in the city strode heavily, knocking Sheng Cheng Guards into the air!
You should know that most of these Sheng Cheng Guards have strength comparable to early‑stage Martial Venerables!
Yet their strength is nothing before these stone men!
Only the massive earth beasts beside the Sheng Cheng Guards can match the stone men in sheer strength!
Although the Sheng Cheng Guards were constantly blown away, they quickly got up after landing and rejoined the battle.
"These Sheng Cheng Guards, each one fears no death!"
Gu Han's mind stirred, and he suddenly noticed a huge black shadow in the distance!
He narrowed his eyes and saw that the black shadow was actually a moving mountain!
Countless boulders were piled upon that mountain!
The boulders rolled down from the mountain, turning into huge stone men that joined the battle!
This mountain even had several arms that kept picking up boulders, turning them into catapults that hurled the stones into the Sheng Cheng!
"So the boulders in the Sheng Cheng are this fellow's handiwork!"
Moreover, many other Black Tide monsters on the battlefield, sheltered by the stone men, were assaulting the Sheng Cheng!
Just as Gu Han was about to act, he felt a heavy yet sharp sword aura sweep across the sky!
That brilliant white flash swept forward, actually cleaving the seven or eight huge stone men ahead into rubble!
The weaker Black Tide constructs turned directly to ash!
Stone men that could easily suppress Martial Venerables were utterly insignificant before this person!
"You must be the newly arrived Savior Heir, right?"
A warm voice sounded not far away; Gu Han turned and saw a Savior Heir who had leapt into the battlefield.
That person wore white armor and wielded a mysterious heavy sword, galloping across the battlefield.
What surprised Gu Han most was that this person's appearance had no flaw to pick.
If one had to find a word, it would be perfect!
Even Gu Han's looks would have to retreat three paces before him!
"I already know about your hometown; thanks for your help, brother."
That person chiseled a straight passage through the stone giant's battlefield, came to Gu Han's side, and smiled gently.
Right, I forgot to introduce myself—I'm Bai Ce, the Savior Heir from Lu Chui Zhen.
When Bai Ce mentioned his hometown, Gu Han had already guessed his identity.
He likewise smiled at Bai Ce, the Dawn Dragon Roar Spear appearing in his hand as he followed Bai Ce onto the battlefield.
I never expected to meet you under these circumstances.
Me too.
Bai Ce chuckled.
I heard everyone had arrived at Tianyu City; I was about to come and catch up with you all, but I didn't expect these monsters to ruin things.
While speaking, Bai Ce's movements did not pause at all.
He swept past with one sword after another, each strike's aftermath taking the lives of a dozen or more monsters.
Gu Han had not encountered anyone in a long time who could make him feel pressured in strength.
Although he and Bai Ce were not opponents, this pressure also turned into motivation for him,
Then let's compete first—see who can kill more monsters!
Gu Han smiled faintly, and golden light blazed upon the Dawn Dragon Roar Spear.
Good.
Just as Bai Ce's words fell, as if he had thought of something, he shifted his tone and said,
That fellow isn't here; otherwise he would surely eagerly join our contest!
The two charged across the Black Tide battlefield at extreme speed, like two sword blades, continually tearing through the Black Tide monsters' defenses.
If it weren't for these Black Tide monsters not knowing what fear is,
they would have likely retreated long ago due to heavy losses.
The Sheng Cheng Guards desperately resisting the Black Tide monsters, upon seeing someone actually able to match Bai Ce in strength, immediately burst into excited shouts.
Bai Ce! Bai Ce!
As if shouting Bai Ce's name could give them strength.
But soon someone realized they did not know Gu Han's name.
However, this awkwardness flashed by; in a life-and-death moment, no one could spare much attention.
The Black Tide spread across the sky and earth; the fighting Savior Heirs were naturally not just Gu Han and Bai Ce.
