Clang! Clang! Clang!
Tumi Sangzha pushed the strength in his body to its limits, the scimitar in his hand creating a watertight defense, each of his blows using all the power he could muster. But against Wang Chong's storm of attacks, he was simply a punching bag with no ability to counter.
Wang Chong's speed had completely surpassed the limits of his cultivation; even Tumi Sangzha could not keep up. When Wang Chong advanced to Profound Martial Tier 7, bordering on Tier 8, his Phantom Steps also underwent a significant transformation, advancing to a brand-new level.
Tumi Sangzha grew more and more shocked, eventually culminating in a shout.
”All Tibetan soldiers, hear my order. The Wang Chong that Great Minister wishes to kill is here. Everyone, quickly come and kill him!”
Tumi Sangzha's nervous and furious roar was like a thunderclap exploding over the mountain, reverberating over the entire battlefield. It not only attracted the notice of the Ngari generals on the mountain, but that of Dalun Ruozan at the base of the mountain as well.
”Wang Chong!!!”
Dalun Ruozan's gaze chilled as he immediately shot his gaze toward that voice. The words 'Wang Chong' were like a spell, instantly provoking Dalun Ruozan.
If there was one thing that Dalun Ruozan cared more about than the outcome of this battle, it would be Wang Chong's death.
”Pass on my order. Ignore the Annan Protectorate army; first kill Wang Chong for me! No matter what, he can't be allowed to leave alive! Have Longqinba and Ciren Xiangxiong go up together!”
Dalun Ruozan looked up at that bloody glow near the summit, the killing intent in his eyes bared for all to see.
Buzz!
Dalun Ruozan's order was transmitted to the entire battlefield, and with this order, the Tibetan army immediately changed course.
”The Great Minister has ordered for Wang Chong to be killed!”
”All soldiers, hear my order and attack the southeast!”
……
A mighty roar suddenly exploded from the mountain. Looking down from the sky, one could see warhorses neighing as the dense ranks of TIbetan cavalry began to surge from various areas to the southeast region of the summit.
”Over there! Kill Wang Chong! Become the greatest warrior of the plateau!”
Warhorses galloped onto the mountain, the Tibetan generals upon them staring with sharp gazes, storms of energy raging around their bodies.
Compared to normal soldiers, the generals of Ü-Tsang were much fiercer and more vicious.
Rumble! Steel clattered as Halos of Thorns began to expand, each representing one Profound Martial general of Ü-Tsang.
Neigh!
As their warhorses gave out heaven-shaking cries, ten-some Tibetan generals charged toward Wang Chong, their eyes glowing with a vicious light.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Horses screamed as they struck the ground with massive holes in their bodies. Before they could even approach, the Tibetan generals had fallen under a thunderous assault.
Neigh!
A Tibetan general was in the middle of jumping from his horse when a bloody light flashed by, leaving both him and his horse cloven in two.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Two, three, four… one general after another was felled by Wang Chong before they could get close. After they died, the energy within their bodies gathered into a bloody mist and surged into Wang Chong's body.
Kaclack! In just a few short moments, Wang Chong's strength swelled once more. From Tier 7 of the Profound Martial realm, he ascended to Tier 8, then Tier 9, finally stopping at the peak of Tier 9.
”Not good!”
Tumi Sangzha's face paled. No matter how slow he was, even he had realized by now that he had just committed an enormous mistake.
His original intention had been to call over more elite experts and have them surround Wang Chong so that they could finally finish off this disease threatening the livelihood of Ü-Tsang.
But Tumi Sangzha had forgotten that with Wang Chong's current level of cultivation, many Tibetan generals were no match for him.
These lower-level Tibetan generals charging up the summit could only become nutrients for Wang Chong. With their cultivation snatched away, Wang Chong would only become more and more terrifying.
When Wang Chong was on the border of Tier 7 and Tier 8, he was already a powerful threat to him, even giving him the impression that he was standing on the precipice of death. Now that Wang Chong had absorbed the energy of these Tibetan generals, didn't that mean…
As this thought flashed through his mind, Tumi Sangzha's body went stiff. A faint wound, as thin as a thread, suddenly appeared on his forehead. Then it spread down to his nose, his mouth, his chest… In the end, it spread down to the metal giant, cleaving this massive being in two.
I didn't think… that I would actually die at his hands!
Tumi Sangzha's eyes were wide, his entire body as cold as ice. Wang Chong had been too fast, far too fast. He didn't have the time to think about pulling out his scimitar before being killed.
Thump!
Under countless gazes, Tumi Sangzha, standing on the shoulder of the metal giant, suddenly exploded into pieces.
And with his death, those metal men and giants summoned by the Halo of Black Iron instantly collapsed into powder and pieces.
”Kiiiill!”
