World's Best Martial Artist

In the catacombs passageway.

The crystal clear energy channel was now covered in blood.

The thousand-meter long passage was stained with blood.

Li Hansong's eyes were bloodshot as he punched the barrier of the passage.

The other three didn't say a word and remained silent.

Fang ping looked around ... After a while, he said in a slightly dry voice,"Please help me collect the body ..."

"The remains ..."

Li Hansong's eyes were red as he said bitterly, "Where's the body ..."

In the passage, there were only some incomplete body parts. There was no complete body to speak of.

How many human experts had died?

He didn't know!

He only knew that the blood on the ground was mostly left behind by human powerhouses. The vitality of humans and the catacombs martial artists was different.

There were also some incomplete golden bone armors in the passage.

That was the proof that a golden body powerhouse had fallen!

They didn't say anything more and began to collect the remains of the dead.

……

Half an hour later.

"The Vice-Chancellors of Dongwu martial arts university and Donghu martial arts university ... They're definitely dead," Wang Jinyang sighed softly.

Among the remains, he found the half-destroyed remains of these two people.

Fang ping sighed softly. He had seen these two vice-chancellors at the grandmasters 'banquet on the 2nd.

Although he did not have a deep impression of them, these two grandmasters still had many words of praise for him, a martial arts University's prodigy. He did not expect that their meeting would be their final farewell.

"Snmau's Vice-Chancellor Liu died in battle ..."

"Commander Zheng of Tiannan has fallen ..."

“……”

As the crowd recognized the identity of some of the remains, their hearts became heavy.

She couldn't tell if she was feeling uncomfortable or sad, but she felt ... Endless unwillingness and anger!

A total of nine people were identified.

This meant that at least 9 grandmasters had died in the battle!

There were also some people who might have been completely annihilated without even a corpse left.

In a short period of time, China might have lost more than a hundred Grandmaster powerhouses!

Out of the few people he recognized, six were rank-7s, three were rank-8s ...

On the other hand, there were less than a hundred rank-8s in Sino nation.

"Rank-9 ... Did anyone die?"

The crowd was speechless. They didn't know.

The rank-7 powerhouses were the last to enter, but so many people had still died. It could be seen how intense the battle at the passageway was.

"Martial arts universities recruited 30 grandmasters this time, and the remains of three martial arts university powerhouses were found in the passageway alone.

Qin Fengqing suddenly slashed a corpse into pieces. He gritted his teeth and said, "It's nothing! "Our grandmasters are dead, but they've lost even more. At least dozens of high-ranked martial artists have died in the catacombs ..."

In the passageway, there were not only human remains but also the remains of catacombs martial artists.

A lot of them!

Fang ping did not speak, but he held a huge beast claw in his hand and said in a deep voice,"The monster life clan ... Has joined the battle!"

This was not the claw of a rank-9 beast, but a rank-7 beast.

The monster life clan of The Guardian monster plant did not only have rank-9 monster beasts and monster plants. Some cities also had some rank-7 and 8 monster plants and monster beasts.

Slowly exhaling, Fang ping continued,"I remember that among human rank-9s, someone has tamed a high-ranked Mount before. Why didn't anyone bring a Mount to join the battle this time?"

Li Hansong said gloomily,"in such a large-scale Grandmaster battle, they would not usually bring their mounts into the battle. Humans do not have enough control over their mounts, and it is very easy for them to rebel!"

After he had finished speaking, li Hansong looked at the incomplete remains in front of him and sighed."What should we do with these seniors?"

"The military will keep it in check ... You're not allowed to take any broken weapons or relics ..."

Fang ping glanced at Qin Fengqing. Qin Fengqing said in a fiery voice,""I'm not that low class!"

Fang ping did not say anything more. He looked around and said after a long time,"I wonder ... How are teacher and the rest?"

Lu fengrou and Tang Feng had only just entered rank-7.

Although he had a divine weapon, no one knew if he had encountered a rank-8 or rank-9 powerhouse in this high-ranked Battle Royale.

Although there were no remains of them ... It was not impossible that nothing was left after the high-ranked powerhouses self-destructed.

"We still have the advantage," Wang Jinyang said in a deep voice,"otherwise, we wouldn't have been able to defeat the enemy! It's useless to think about this now. The seniors are willing to risk their lives ... Have you realized that? The seniors who died ... Were all older. "

Everyone's heart sank even more when they heard this.

That's right, the experts who had fallen were all older.

Obviously, these people's deaths weren't really due to bad luck. Perhaps they had long been prepared to die and had fought to the point of crisis, stepping forward and choosing to die together with the enemy.

Wang Jinyang did not continue on this topic. His tone was grave as he said,"The three of you! This time, it was extremely dangerous! "This trip to the Tiannan catacombs is due to my own selfish motives. We are not grandmasters. Once we enter the other side, there is a 90% chance of death!

We haven't left the passage yet ..."

Before he could finish his sentence, Fang ping looked at li Hansong and Qin Fengqing and said,"The two of you had better stay in the passage and leave together when the people from the military enter."

"Although I'm not strong, I have half of my golden body and Golden Bones. Even if I encounter a peak rank-6, I can still hold them off for a while!" Li Hansong said gloomily.

Qin Fengqing scoffed."I won't be a burden to you, and I don't need you to save me. If you encounter any danger, just leave me behind. Life and death are determined by fate!"

Wang Jinyang took a deep breath and nodded."I, Wang Jinyang, won't say any pretentious words anymore! If that's the case ... Then let's go together. If the four of us join forces, we can even fight against an expert who has attained mentality-vitality fusion!"

Fang Ping's eyes were cold and sharp,"it's not a battle. I'll kill as many as they come!" If you encounter such an expert, help me block them for a moment. If anyone comes, kill them!"

At this moment, Fang ping had made up his mind.

If he really encountered powerhouses who were on the verge of achieving mentality-vitality fusion and were about to step into high-ranks, he would blow them up to death!

Having entered rank-6, his ability was comparable to a typical peak rank-6.

If he went all out and combined it with the power of heaven and earth, he would be able to kill an expert who had attained mentality-vitality fusion even without turning himself into a skeleton like last time.

"Then what's the point of talking nonsense, let's go!"

Qin Fengqing did not hesitate. At this point, life and death were determined by fate. If he died, it would be bad luck.

The few of them no longer spoke and simultaneously performed a martial arts salute to the remains on the ground. Then, without looking back, they walked forward.

"The dead are already gone. Dying in battle in the catacombs ... Is a martial artist's greatest glory!

This was what Tang Feng had said when he first joined the special training class.

That day, when Tang Feng said this, many people did not think much of it. Fang ping even laughed in his heart. 'Do you still think it's an honor to let you, Tang Feng, die in the catacombs?'

However, today, Fang ping believed it.

It was not just Tang Feng. Those powerhouses of the older generation, no matter how many grudges they had on normal days and how deep their hatred was, when they reached the catacombs, they would all be comrades-in-arms, fighting together for Sino nation and for mankind.

These people didn't want to die, but they didn't fear death.

……

Tens of seconds later, the four of them stepped out of the passageway and entered the Tiannan catacombs.

What came into view was a dilapidated city, with only broken walls.

This was the southern Heaven city of the past.

As soon as they appeared, several grandmasters nearby were on guard. Because they came from the back passage, they didn't attack, but someone still cursed in a low voice,""You little brats, what are you doing here!"

It was Minister Wang from the Ministry of Education who spoke.

At this moment, there were more than ten Grandmaster powerhouses guarding the passage.

That included the military department's rank-9 Grandmaster, li deyong.

Seeing Fang ping and the others, Minister Wang cursed in a low voice. Before they could speak, he quickly said, "There's still a battle ahead. You're not allowed to run around. Stay here ... No, retreat to the back and wait!"

Fang ping did not say anything. He looked into the distance.

In the distance, the rumbling sounds continued.

Beams of golden light flickered in the sky.

Huge monstrous beasts were running amok in the air, carrying the catacombs powerhouses and fighting with humans.

Towering trees and flowers swayed their branches and whipped through the void, filling the air with the power of heaven and earth.

Powerhouses like li deyong did not pay much attention to Fang ping and the others. Instead, they looked into the distance with grave expressions.

They had their own mission, which was to guard the passageway and prevent the catacombs powerhouses from breaking into the passageway and entering earth.

The others were fighting in front, killing their enemies.

Just as Fang ping was about to ask a question, a clear shout rang out in the distance. A beam of light that shattered the void came out.

"Roar!"

A sorrowful wail rang out as the scene that had been obscured by the world Energy appeared in front of them.

Nan yunyue's entire body was bathed in golden blood. With a short blade in her hand, she sliced off the head of an incomparably huge rat-type demonic beast.

In the air, the huge demonic beast whose head had been cut off was not dead.

The mental energy that was alternating between reality and illusion was condensing into a new body, as if the death of the physical body was nothing.

However, the next moment, a dark light flashed beside him!

In the distance, Zhang Weiyu struck with his spear. The spear radiance and the mental energy of the demon beast intertwined. Explosions could be heard continuously.

Taking this opportunity, Nan yunyue let out a clear cry once more. The short blade left her hand, causing the void to tremble as she slashed into the ball of mental energy.

BOOM!

At this moment, an extremely loud explosion was heard!

Fang ping and the others were very far away, but their bodies were still shaking. The aftershock came, and before it even got close, Qin Fengqing's body was already cut with countless bloody marks.

On the side, li deyong waved his hand and blocked the aftermath. He said excitedly,""Minister Nan killed the demonic rat!"

Minister Wang and the others were also extremely excited and growled,""That's great! After killing two rank-nine beasts, monster life clan won't dare to continue!"

In this battle, the 11 catacombs cities had joined forces to attack.

There were 8 castellans, 3 rank-9 monsters, and 4 rank-9 monster plants.

15 rank-9s against 12 rank-9s from the humans.

The humans, on the other hand, did not attack the monster plants and the city Lord. Instead, they attacked a few rank-9 monsters. Up until now, they had already killed two rank-9 monsters.

Up ahead, there was only one rank-9 beast left.

When Fang ping heard Minister Wang and the others 'words, he immediately said,"Department head ... Why don't we kill the monster plants first?"

"Monster plant clan has been at war with us for many years, and we've suffered countless casualties. "Monster life clan has been at peace with us for many years and hasn't fought many battles. We'll kill them until they're afraid. With heavy losses and weak wills, they'll naturally retreat first ..."

Minister Wang explained.

Focusing on killing demonic beasts was also the decision made by Sino nation before they entered the catacombs.

"In Tiannan catacombs, monster life clan and the humans are at war for the first time. With heavy casualties, it's possible to continue fighting to the death, but the possibility of retreating after being frightened is higher.

At rank-9, one's lifespan was endless, and they were all Lords of cities and Kings of lands.

Monster life clan wasn't as determined as monster plant clan. With so many casualties, even the Forbidden Zone might not be able to force these people to continue.

Indeed, after Nan yunyue killed the giant rat, a huge demonic Peacock beast spread its wings and flew away. A colorful figure instantly disappeared from its original spot!

"King Fu Yu!"

An angry roar resounded through the sky.

Some of the catacombs powerhouses were furious when they saw the demonic Peacock beast escape!

Emperor Fu Yu actually escaped!

On the catacombs 'side, they were not at a disadvantage. After Nan yunyue killed the greater rat demonic beast, she was instantly surrounded by two rank-9s and was in a precarious situation. If the peacock demonic beast did not escape, the three rank-9s would surround Nan yunyue and she would not escape death!

He was angry, but the other party had already escaped, so there was no point in being angry.

Two of the three rank-9s had been killed. The peacock was worried that it would follow in its footsteps, so its first thought was to escape. It was understandable.

The great battle was still ongoing.

Li deyong held his long sword and said,""You guys continue to stand guard. I'll go help Minister Nan. Monster life clan is already in fear. We'll definitely win this battle!"

Before he finished speaking, li deyong was already like a bolt of lightning, instantly attacking the two people surrounding Nan yunyue.

On the other side, Zhang Weiyu was also fighting one against two. Although he had killed the greater rat, he was in danger. However, he was in a better state than Nan yunyue.

Nan yunyue had forcefully killed the greater rat, but she was also heavily injured. She was already on the losing side.

Great battles were happening everywhere.

In the blink of an eye, there were also catacombs powerhouses who began to attack the passageway.

Minister Wang charged out in an instant. He did not even have the time to care about Fang ping and the others.

At the entrance of the passageway, an unfamiliar rank-7 powerhouse shouted in a low voice,""Quickly get lost! Do you want to die Here?"

At this moment, there were high-Ranked Battles everywhere near the passageway. If they were slightly affected, a few rank-5 and 6 martial artists would be covered by the aftermath and die an unnatural death.

Although Fang ping wanted to know more, he still said immediately after seeing this scene, "Let's go!"

The next moment, they ran to the back, which was the forbidden Sea.

When these experts fought, they rarely went near the forbidden Sea.

No one knew how long the battle outside the passage would last.

In the catacombs, other than the peacock demon who had fled, the other powerhouses had not left. It was obvious that these catacombs powerhouses had no intention of giving up.

Not long after Fang ping and the others left, another huge battle broke out near the passageway.

The power of heaven and earth shook the area dozens of miles away, and the spiritual pressure spread across dozens of miles.

The southern Heaven city, which was originally in ruins, had completely disappeared without a trace after the battle.

……

Dozens of miles away.

Fang Ping's face was ghastly pale. The others were slightly better.

The aftershock of the mentality shock was completely borne by Fang ping alone. His mentality was shattered several times.

At this moment, there was a vast ocean in front of them, calm and without waves.

The sounds of battle in the distance also gradually weakened.

The few of them were panting heavily. Then, li Hansong said excitedly, "They've killed two rank-9 beasts. Minister Nan and the others are too strong!"Th1s chapter is updated by n)ovel/\bin/\

On the other hand, Fang Ping's expression was grim." 12 rank-9s have entered Sino nation ... Two monsters were killed, one escaped, and Guardian Zhang is still fighting one against two ... Right now, there are only 11 places where the energy fluctuations are the most intense ..."

As soon as he said that, li Hansong's face stiffened."Maybe ... Maybe he ran too far away ... And you didn't sense him."

Rank-9 was the stabilizing force of Hua country.

"Currently, there are only 33 rank-9s in Sino nation.

"In order to guard the catacombs, each place needs at least one rank-9 to guard it.

Of the 23 catacombs, other than Tiannan catacombs, there were 22 more.

This time, almost all the rank-9s who could come from Tiannan had come. Other than the 22 rank-9s who had to stay back in various places, the 12 here ... Including the one from star suppression city who had not made it to the list.

Almost all of China's forces were sent out for this battle.

If too many rank-9s died ... That would be a real problem.

Qin Fengqing exhaled and said,"don't think about it anymore. When these people fight, it's useless for us to think too much. Even if the few of us join forces, we can't kill a rank-7. It's hard not to die ..."

Fang ping snorted."If you had Yao Chengjun's capabilities, you might really be able to fight against a rank-7. I might as well bring old Yao along instead of you!"

Qin Fengqing's face was sullen. Although these words were hurtful, they were also the truth.

Yao Chengjun's mentality was strong, so he could slightly resist the pressure of high-ranked mentality, so that everyone would not be crushed to death in an instant.

Fang Ping's mentality was not weak either. With the two of them working together, they could resist the other party's mentality outburst for a short time.

If Fang ping was given time, there was still hope for him to fight against a rank-7.

Even though he was depressed, Qin Fengqing did not make a sound. He would let her say whatever she wanted.

Fang ping did not continue to demoralize him. He turned back to look, took a deep breath, and said,"But you're right. No matter how we look at it, it's useless. "Let's go. While the catacombs powerhouses are all out, we'll look for them first ..."

Fang ping looked at Wang Jinyang and said,"Did your teacher say where he was going?"

"At that time, President Shen had fallen into the catacombs and could not return. Teacher had gone to look for him ... Before President Shen fell, he was fighting with the Rose City martial artists around Half Moon Lake. Let's go to Half Moon Lake to take a look first!"

Fang ping nodded and did not waste any time.

Everyone had studied the map before they came.

The Half Moon Lake was located between the southern Heaven city and rose City. However, it was not a straight line. Instead, it was a huge Lake in the East.

They started to head east along the forbidden Sea. The battles between experts were concentrated in the ruins of the southern Heaven city. The area near Banyue Lake was not the battlefield.

After walking for a while, Fang ping suddenly glanced at the calm sea beside him ... His heart palpitated slightly as he said,"Stay a little further away. This ocean ... Is a little strange. I'm panicking."

His spiritual power could not penetrate this sea, nor could he detect it.

It was extremely rare for one's spiritual power to fall into the sea and not penetrate it.

The few of them knew about the forbidden sea's fearsome reputation, so they quickly left the forbidden Sea.

In the catacombs, the forbidden Sea was the number one forbidden area, while the defensive Sea Mountain was number two.

These two great forbidden grounds ran through all the catacombs.

Forbidden Lands like magic City catacombs 'hundred beasts forest and ten thousand ant desert were child's play compared to these two major Forbidden Lands.

After leaving for some distance, Qin Fengqing turned his head and glanced at the forbidden Sea. He suddenly said in a low voice,""In the ocean ... There seems to be an Island ... Can you see it?"

Fang ping and the others turned their heads to look into the distance. They could vaguely see the existence of an Island.

Fang ping exhaled and said,"it's normal. There are also some habitats of sea monsters near the sea. There are also forbidden areas in the sea. Previously, when Magic city's catacombs was in turmoil, there were monsters in the forbidden Sea that responded."

"Humans and catacombs martial artists will not enter the forbidden Sea without permission. If we're talking about good stuff, the sea has more."

When Qin Fengqing said this, no one paid him any attention.

If this guy wanted to die, he could just say it. No one stopped him.

Even without the catacombs 'records, humans knew how dangerous the forbidden Sea was. It was extremely dangerous!

Humans had entered the catacombs for so many years. It was not as if they had never thought of going out to sea to investigate. In the end, none of the people who entered the sea survived.

Humans had some understanding of the precinct, the defensive Sea Mountain, and even the restricted areas.

The forbidden Sea was the only place he knew nothing about.

The few of them hurried on their way without a word. Along the way, they were extremely vigilant. The Tiannan catacombs were filled with danger nowadays. If they were not careful, they would encounter high-ranked powerhouses. Under the threat of danger, the few of them did not even have the mood to worry about the grandmasters.

If he didn't have the strength, it would be a waste to worry. He had to protect himself first.

It was more than 200 miles from the edge of the forbidden Sea to Half Moon Lake.

They didn't dare to go all out. They waited until the sky turned dark before they arrived at the area of Half Moon Lake.

Along the way, they also encountered some demonic beasts, but they were all middle and low-ranked demonic beasts, and they were quickly killed by the few of them.

When they arrived at Half Moon Lake, Fang ping could not help but ask,"Why did you guys come here?"

The Half Moon Lake ... Was too big!

From a distance, Fang ping could hear the roars of many monsters. He even saw some monsters jumping and rolling on the surface of the lake.

Although this place was not a forbidden area, there was no guarantee that there would be high-ranked monsters occupying the lake and calling themselves Kings.

"I was chased by someone and fled here."

Wang Jinyang said casually, then lowered his voice."Come with me. I remember that we encountered a swamp back then, and President Shen went missing there."

The few of them did not say anything and followed Wang Jinyang into the distance.

The main purpose of entering the catacombs this time was to find someone.

It wouldn't be too late to do other things after finding the person ... Or the remains. If he really couldn't find it, he would consider giving up.
