The punch landed in a black hole, but instead of collapsing as he had expected, the Ranger was completely unharmed.
All the damage seemed to have been dissolved into thin air.
Chai Xun was stunned.
Xia Chu, standing on the sidelines, wasn't surprised at all.
How could someone who could become the right-hand man of the previous God Lord be someone as easy to deal with as Yi Yu?
Even if there is a gap in hard power, they can make up for it in terms of skills and experience.
"Punch me again!"
Chai Xun immediately realized what was happening and forcefully increased the pace.
This is the fighting instinct of a top-tier fighter.
Black Hole Fist is just his basic attack; if he wanted to, he could unleash a barrage of punches into the black hole.
However, the wandering knight might not be able to completely deflect every punch.
Chai Xun didn't know how he did it, but one thing was certain: the other party absolutely couldn't keep up with his pace.
This is true.
He got into a rhythm, and the Ranger immediately found himself stretched thin, revealing a weakness in his defense.
At a crucial moment, Xia Qian joined the battle.
The two old men had never worked together before, but at this moment, they were perfectly in sync.
Judging from the situation, Chai Xun held an absolute initiative.
After all, his punches were so deadly that if the two of them were to get even slightly touched, they would immediately die or be reduced to zero.
However, judging from the results, they were evenly matched.
The two old men worked together for a whole afternoon, but they didn't let Chai Xun gain the slightest advantage.
Chai Xun, a super master with a nine-zhang-tall Dharma form, ended up with a belly full of resentment and almost died of depression.
Two old monsters!
For the first time ever, Chai Xun felt a sense of apprehension towards the Lin Yi Group.
The two old men alone could hold him off for an entire afternoon. If a few more decent fighters joined in, they might actually give him a real hard time.
At this moment, Chai Xun suddenly felt a sudden, inexplicable tremor.
In his perception, an extremely terrifying entity was rapidly approaching, and without a doubt, its target was him!
"Ouyang Jue?"
Chai Xun felt a chill run down his spine.
The only person nearby who could exert such pressure on him was Ouyang Jue.
Given his strength, he might not actually be afraid of Ouyang Jue. If it were a fair one-on-one fight, the outcome would be uncertain.
The problem is that Ouyang Jue brought helpers.
Even if they are not teammates of the same caliber, they are enough to have a substantial impact on the balance of victory or defeat.
Besides, he had fought with the two old men for a whole afternoon, which had taken a toll on him.
"That's enough for today, we'll play again later!"
Chai Xun immediately withdrew and turned to Xia Chu on the sidelines: "Are you leaving or not?"
Xia Chu hesitated for a moment, then bowed to the wandering knight and followed Chai Xun.
Watching the two figures disappear into the distance, the wandering swordsman and Xia Qian exchanged a glance, then suddenly squatted down, panting heavily.
The afternoon's fierce battle took a toll on Chai Xun, and it was even more exhausting for the two of them.
Chai Xun, relying on his powerful black hole punches, didn't need to worry too much.
The two of them were so close that they would die if they touched each other; the mental strain alone was on a completely different level.
To be honest, maintaining zero mistakes throughout the entire afternoon of intense battle was partly due to their excellent skills and perfect teamwork, but also partly due to a bit of luck.
If they were to have another match, it's not certain they would emerge unscathed.
"You two have worked hard."
Lin Yi's voice rang out, landing in front of the two of them.
Xia Qian chuckled, "I knew he was going to leave suddenly. Turns out he was scared away by the young master."
The wandering swordsman shook his head upon hearing this: "He was indeed scared away, but in his mind, it's not necessarily because he was scared away by the young master."
Xia Qian was taken aback, then nodded in agreement after a moment of thought: "That makes sense."
After a pause, Xia Qian frowned and said, "This person is too much of a threat. If we let him run rampant, our governance system, which has finally gotten on the right track, might collapse completely."
The wandering swordsman said, "We definitely need to find a way to take him down."
Lin Yi thought for a moment and asked, "What did Xia Chu say?"
"She had some doubts, but not enough to completely betray us."
The wandering knight suggested, "If you wish to subdue Chai Xun, Xia Chu could be a starting point, but he's still not quite up to the task."
Judging from Chai Xun's attitude towards Xia Chu, he does have some feelings for her, but he would never lose his own opinions or be led by the nose because of it.
Ultimately, he wasn't a simp like Wen Xiangyu.
Lin Yi pondered for a moment: "The problem now is that we not only have to deal with Chai Xun, but also with Ouyang Jue."
The two are of similar strength, but in terms of threat, the latter is greater than the former.
However, one thing surprised Lin Yi quite a bit.
Since Ouyang Jue came for Chai Xun, he should have pursued him relentlessly after learning of Chai Xun's whereabouts. Unexpectedly, he chose to hold back.
Even now, Ouyang Jue and his group remain in Zhongjun and have not yet entered Nanjun.
The wandering swordsman suddenly said, "It can't be a coincidence that these two people came to Zhongjun at the same time."
Lin Yi immediately realized: "Has anything major happened in Zhongjun recently?"
"If I remember correctly, the true Jingzhe day, which occurs once every hundred years, is coming soon."
Seeing that Lin Yi was confused, the wandering knight asked, "Does the young master know that Zhongjun was not originally called Zhongjun?"
Lin Yi asked in surprise, "What's your name?"
"Insect County".
The wandering swordsman continued, "Zhongyuan City wasn't originally called Zhongyuan City. It was originally called Chongyuan City. Legend has it that in ancient times, it was the lair of an insect god."
"After the Creator God incorporated all the gods, he established a rule that no god was allowed to set foot in the thirteen counties of the divine realm."
"The Insect God is also among them."
"However, although the Insect God went to the Divine Realm, its descendants remained in the old nest and were known as the Little Insect Gods."
"Legend has it that every hundred years on the day of the True Awakening of Insects, the Little Insect God will be disturbed and appear in the world. During this period, its strength will be greatly reduced, and only one in a hundred will remain."
"If we can take the opportunity to kill it and seize the insect essence within its body, we will benefit immensely."
Lin Yi suddenly realized: "So Ouyang Jue and Chai Xun are both after the Insect Element?"
The wandering swordsman nodded: "Very likely."
In fact, Ouyang Jue's decision to remain in Zhongjun and hold back his troops is already a ready-made piece of evidence.
"It seems the battlefield is still in Zhongjun."
Lin Yi breathed a slight sigh of relief.
If the battlefield were to be held in Nanjun, even if we were to win, the damage would severely weaken the entire Nanjun, and it would take ten years to recover.
Zhongjun is much better; it's Wang Shide's territory. Even if it has to be swallowed up later, at least psychologically, the feeling is completely different.
Lin Yi then asked, "Can you pinpoint the exact location of the Little Insect God?"
This question is somewhat unreasonable.
All of Zhongjun's spies have been eradicated, and it is impossible to send people to infiltrate again in the short term.
If it weren't for his overpowered map-viewing ability, the entire Central County would be a blind spot right now.
The wandering knight's answer was quite straightforward: "Yes."
