Chapter 368 Arrogance
At this time, everything was still normal in the Tianyu battlefield.
But on second thought, since even Su Jianqiu and Yu Qingya had come to recruit them, it meant that the situation had reached a very urgent point.
After Lu Yu and others discussed it, they decided to stay there for one more night. They set off early the next morning and headed to the depths of the third area to occupy a favorable terrain and prepare for the battle.
But unexpectedly, in the middle of the night, there was a burst of noisy voices outside the camp, which attracted everyone to crawl out of the tent.
"It's the troops sent by the coalition headquarters! The army is crossing the border!"
Xu Bin was the most alert and ran out of the tent first. After observing a shadowy light in the distance for a while, he spoke first.
"The army crossed the border overnight, which means that the situation ahead is urgent. Maybe the vanguard of the fallen demon army has already come out of the fourth area..." Luo Shuhui said.
Ling Yufei made a prompt decision and said, "Pack your luggage, and we will set off behind the coalition forces!"
Everyone's sleepiness disappeared immediately, and they immediately packed their luggage and followed the coalition forces.
Wherever the army passed, the fallen demons were wiped out, and only ashes were left on the ground.
Against the backdrop of the night, an iron-blooded and murderous atmosphere suddenly emerged.
Lu Yu couldn't help but feel a sense of heroism in his heart. He couldn't help but reach into his arms and gently touch the Tianjia-level task card, thinking to himself: I don't know if I will meet the King of Heavenly Prison in this battle?
When he accepted the task before, he left in a hurry and didn't carefully inquire about the information of the King of Heavenly Prison. During the rest of the camp in the past few days, he had already found Luo Shuhui to make up for the knowledge in this area.
The King of Heavenly Prison is the most powerful existence in the entire Heavenly Prison battlefield. It is precisely because of its existence that the fallen demons in the entire Heavenly Prison battlefield become particularly difficult to deal with, because it can increase the concentration of fallen air, making each individual fallen demon more powerful.
It usually only occupies the depths of the fourth area, the place closest to the boundary of the sky, and rarely enters other areas to wreak havoc, because if it stays in place, it can accelerate the continuous flow of fallen air into the battlefield, which is more destructive than if it directly participates in the war.
Therefore, every commander-in-chief of the coalition forces regards the elimination of the King of Heavenly Prison as his ultimate goal, because once the King of Heavenly Prison is eliminated, the entire Heavenly Prison battlefield can be peaceful for a long time. When the fallen air naturally flows in and forms the King of Heavenly Prison again, at least decades have passed.
It's a pity that the King of Heavenly Prison rarely appears in the first three areas, and in the fourth area, it not only has a large number of demon generals to guard it, but also the force field at the junction of the sky and the sky to protect it, so it is extremely difficult to kill it in the fourth area.
Only when the fallen demons attack in large numbers, the King of Heavenly Prison will occasionally descend on the first three areas, which will be the best opportunity to kill him.
According to Luo Shuhui, since the records of the Heavenly Prison battlefield were kept, the King of Heavenly Prison has appeared outside the fourth area for a total of 1,034 times, of which only 96 times were successfully killed, with a success rate of less than 10%. Most of the time, he was helpless and sighed.
And the number of successful kills in the fourth area is even less, only a handful of four times, all of which were completed by outstanding disciples who shone all over the world at that time.
After fighting with the Porcupine Demon General, Lu Yu has a deep understanding of the strength of the first-level Demon General. The Demon General is so difficult to deal with, and the strength of the King of Heavenly Prison can be imagined.
Therefore, Lu Yu did not think that he had the strength to go deep into the fourth area to challenge the King of Heavenly Prison alone. It would be best if the King of Heavenly Prison could take the initiative to run out this time, and then he would try to see if there was a chance to kill him in one fell swoop, otherwise this Tianjia-level mission might have to be abandoned.
As they moved forward, the number of fallen demons increased. From time to time, some of them escaped the sweep of the large army and attacked the eight-man team behind them.
But before the attack of these fallen demons was fully launched, Xu Bin, who was at the front of the team, swept the fallen demons into ashes in a few seconds, and there was no threat at all.
At this time, everyone noticed an amazing fact, that is, after a few days of hard practice, Xu Bin's sword power has improved a lot.
"Hey, Senior Brother Xu has become more powerful!"
"In recent days, whenever he has time, Senior Brother Xu has been studying swordsmanship alone, and he has practiced very hard!"
"No matter how hard he works, he can't make such rapid progress. The previous battle must have given him some insights..."
"Great! Senior Brother Xu has become stronger, and with Junior Brother Lu's treatment support, we will definitely be able to complete the task successfully this time!"
Even Ling Yufei couldn't help but praise: "Junior Brother Xu is already very talented. I see that he is restrained and has a strong aura. I'm afraid his progress will not stop here. Maybe there will be another breakthrough!"
"Ah? There will be another breakthrough?"
"Doesn't this mean that Senior Brother Xu will be the fastest among all of us to achieve the Five Qis Return to One and enter the Return to the Sea Realm?"
Ling Yufei nodded and said, "Very likely!"
A group of female disciples suddenly became uneasy.
"Ahhh! No! We are all at the ninth level of the True Yuan Realm, why should Senior Brother Xu sneak away first!"
"I also want to practice hard! I also want to comprehend!"
"Senior Brother Xu, please step aside and take a rest, let me lead the way!"
...
Seeing the passion of the crowd being ignited, Xu Bin finally showed a long-lost smile on his face.
However, no matter how everyone scrambled for joy, Xu Bin never gave up the position of leading the way.
Because as Ling Yufei commented, Xu Bin himself felt that his sword skills were becoming more and more proficient, and he was more and more touched. The pace of swordsmanship improvement did not seem to stop. He only needed to make more efforts, and maybe he could make a qualitative leap.
Finally, when the sky gradually revealed a piece of white, Xu Bin didn't know how many swords he had swung, and suddenly his sword shone with red light, like a bright red sun.
This scene was exactly the same as the red sun that Ling Yufei had used to inflict a fatal blow to the Porcupine Demon General.
The Flaming Sun Sword Technique!
Everyone was immediately shocked.
Xu Bin actually understood it! And it was the extremely powerful Flaming Sun Sword Technique!
With only a body of the ninth level of the True Yuan Realm, he understood the sword technique!
Everyone couldn't help but exclaim in amazement.
"Too awesome!"
"It's also the Yan Yang Sword Art... Is Senior Brother Xu paying tribute to Sister Fei?"
"That's called learning by imitation!"
"Why don't you try it? Senior Brother Xu Bin is really a genius!"
"Can the ninth level of the True Yuan Realm perform the Sword Art? Huihui, has there been such a precedent in the past?"
"Well, theoretically, as long as the five elements of true power are condensed and the power of the five elements is strong enough, the Dao Art and the Sword Art can be performed. However, most people have to reach the level of the unity of the five elements to have enough true power to drive the magic art. There are people who can perform the magic art at the ninth level of the True Yuan Realm, but they are rare... And those who can drive the magic art before that are even unheard of..."
"Anyway, Senior Brother Xu Bin must be a genius!"
...
Listening to everyone's praise, Xu Bin was overjoyed.
However, he did not share his joy with his fellow sisters and brothers, but walked silently to Lu Yu's side.
"Thank you." He said to Lu Yu seriously.
Lu Yu was stunned and confused.
"Thank me for what?"
Xu Bin smiled proudly: "If I hadn't been stimulated by you, I would not have been able to stimulate such potential! In the past, I always felt that I was not strong enough, and I was naturally inferior to Sister Fei and Su Jianqiu. From now on, I will never have such thoughts again!"
"From now on, I, Xu Bin, can be regarded as a top figure, and I am qualified to leave my name in the historical books of the eight major sects and pass it down through the ages!"
Lu Yu felt embarrassed when he heard it. This guy just comprehended a sword formula, and he already thought of it to be passed down through the ages. It must be said that this brother really thinks too much.
At the same time, he felt a little wronged. He obviously did nothing, so what was called being stimulated by himself? If there was any stimulation, it should be Ling Yufei who stimulated it, okay? Otherwise, how could it be the same Yanyang Sword Formula as hers?
"Why don't you say anything? That's right, I guess you haven't recovered yet..."
Xu Bin's face was full of vigor and spirit.
"Take your time, don't worry, you will get used to it slowly in the future... I am destined to be a hurdle that you can never cross in this life!"
Lu Yu was completely speechless.
Still destined to be a hurdle that you can't cross in this life? I don't know how many hurdles like you I have crossed, okay?
Isn't this the legendary arrogance?
In the end, Lu Yu really couldn't think of what to say, so he had to pat the other person's shoulder gently and comfort him calmly.
"Work hard!"
Then he walked away silently.
Xu Bin was stunned for a moment. He couldn't understand why Lu Yu reacted like this.
It was obviously that he had comprehended the Yanyang Sword Art, it was obviously that he had shown a talent that ordinary people could not reach, and it was obviously that he was praised by everyone... But why did he act so calmly?
He even made me work hard, as if he was the final winner...
The more Xu Bin thought about it, the angrier he got, and the more he hated it, he couldn't help but gnashing his teeth again.
Humph, this guy is really good at pretending! We are about to face the fallen demon army head-on, let's see how long you can pretend!
