Chapter 659 – Countdown
An Zheng thought for a while while while sitting in the carriage, if he were to divide his enemies into several levels, then the enemies he killed previously would all be Level 3 enemies, and their strengths would be generally either Higher Completion Stage or Higher Completion Stage. And the Left Swordhall they were about to face could be considered as a level two enemy. His strength was already at the Lower Celestial Stage and was at least at the third or fourth stage of the Lower Celestial Stage. The disparity between An Zheng and him could be described with one word: gap.
And the first level enemy was obviously Chen Zhongqi. Chen Zhongqi’s personal cultivation may not necessarily be in the Left Swordhall’s realm, but what was special about him was that even though he could be considered to have betrayed his loved ones, there was still a lot of experts around him, and even an expert from the Lower Celestial Stage was definitely not a single one. Furthermore, with Chen Zhongqi’s management these past few years, if he wanted to conceal himself, even Chen Wunuo might not be able to easily find him.
An Zheng realised that his days were going to be a little tough, other people’s enemies would already be hopeless for their entire lives if they were Lower Completion Stage. His enemy’s Higher Completion Stage was only at the third level, yet was not pessimistic at all.
An enemy of the third or fourth stage of Lower Celestial Stage, the moment he thought about it, the earth would tremble and the mountains would shake. Although he had coincidentally reached the seventh stage of the Higher Completion Stage, his progress was even faster than in his previous life. But there wauge difference between him and someone of the third or fourth stage of the Lower Celestial Stage. Thinking about it, when An Zheng was at his peak, even though he was severely injured from multiple sneak attacks, he could still kill 40 to 50 Higher Completion Stage s back then …
If it was the kind of straightforward way of killing enemies that could use brute force to fight, then against Left Swordhall s could not be done in such a way. He needed more external support, otherwise, he would not be able to injure Left Swordhall at all. Even if it was An Zheng’s strongest Heavenly Thunder Shower, which had already levelled up, he would still not be able to harm Left Swordhall.
As he sat in the carriage, An Zheng had been thinking about how to take revenge, but because he did not know much about the Left, he was at a loss.
“All of you, continue forward. This trip to Fire Beacon City will take around seven days. If any of the Hubby Cavalry ask, tell them that I am training in seclusion and will not leave the horse carriage. Regardless of whether I can get rid of the Left Swordhall within seven days, I will definitely come back to reunite with you two. ”
An Zheng said, but just as he was about to leave, he pulled Chen Shaobai back: “Are you crazy! Left Swordhall can easily kill 10 of you, and 20 of you! If you go and take revenge now, what’s the difference between that and courting your own death? ”
An Zheng said: “I’m just going back to check out the situation. You all know that I’m noash person. “If there is a chance, of course I will make my move. If there is no chance, I will not force it.”
Du Shoushou said: “For an enemy like that, why must you be so anxious? With your talent, you should be able to reach that level in less than two years. You have already waited for ten years, don’t tell me you can only wait one or two more years?”
An Zheng laughed: “Don’t worry, I suspect that there are other people in Left who had tried to attack me back then. I just need to go back and investigate and see if there are any benefits. Furthermore, I suspect that Chen Wunuo is going to attack the Left Swordhall. If I do not kill him, Left Swordhall will most likely die in Chen Zhongxu’s hands. ”
“Why?”
Du Shoushou asked: “Didn’t you say that Left Swordhall is already the vice commander-in-chief of the Southern Champion team? It’s clear that Chen Wunuo still has a lot of trust in him.”
“No.”
An Zheng said: “The reason why Left Swordhall was called back from the Western Region’s Buddhist Nation’s Immortal palace ruins was because Chen Wunuo no longer trusted him and wanted to get rid of him. However, the power of the Left was just too strong, even Chen Wunuo could not cripple the Left Swordhall without any excuse. The only way for it to do so is to let the Left Swordhall join the southern army and die during the southern campaign. This way, you will still be able to give the Left a sense of dignity. ”
Du Shoushou said: “But, if Left Swordhall is definitely going to die, why are you so anxious to do it yourself?”
“Because that is my hatred.”
An Zheng looked outside. The riders in front were still moving forward at full speed, so no one paid attention to the horse carriages behind them.
“I must avenge myself. That is an explanation.”
An Zheng’s eyes flickered for a while, and he thought about the door that seemed to be an illusion but was actually an incomparably surreal one … In his previous life, he had walked in and walked out one after the other. When he brushed shoulders, he gave a clap of his hands … He said he’s counting on you, An Zheng said you should rest well.
Yeah, it’s up to me.
An Zheng took a deep breath and repeated to himself, “When I was in my previous life, the reason I lived was to give an explanation to even more people. Because too many people have been betrayed by all kinds of people or things, I represent the law and seek justice for them. In this life, I do not represent the law. I only represent myself, so I must first give myself an explanation. ”
An Zheng teleported out and disappeared.
“Don’t worry, I’ll be fine. I know how to value my life more than I did in my previous life.”
Under the night sky, An Zheng had already gone far away.
During this time, no one would doubt An Zheng’s return. An Zheng was like a cloud floating in the night sky as he quietly landed on top of the city walls. Because he thought that his highness the prince was in the city, the number of soldiers guarding the city wall had at least doubled compared to the usual number of soldiers. However, the guarding Cultivation Power and An Zheng were completely unable to guess, so it would obviously not be difficult for An Zheng to hide anything from them.
After a group of patrolling soldiers passed by, An Zheng slid down the city wall like a nimble cat. He landed at the foot of the wall. When he looked back, the moon had already been blocked by the wall, and the night seemed so dark.
Back then, when the Ming Fa Si was at its most prosperous, there were hidden sanctuaries in every medium-sized city. The preparation for these sanctuaries was for the law enforcers of the Ming Fa Si to save themselves when they were in danger and could not get assistance in time. Every shelter had many things prepared, such as pills and equipment, as well as various identification documents and clothes. Anything that could be of help was basically available.
An Zheng couldn’t remember the location of all the shelters, but he knew how to find one.
The Ming Fa Si had a special symbol, which could not be passed down to outsiders. An Zheng looked around the main street and found the marking. Following the guidance of the marking, he turned another three streets and finally found an extremely ordinary looking house. However, perhaps even the people living in this residential area did not know that their house had another world underneath it.
An Zheng circled around the back of the house, found the location of the mechanism, and gently pulled out a brick. There waandle inside, and when he turned the handle, a hole would appear in the foundation behind the house.
After walking down about three to four meters, there was a secret door that only the Ming Fa Si people knew how to open. After An Zheng entered, he lit up the room.
A table, a chair, a bed. The bedding was slightly damp, after all, it was dark all year round. In front of the west and north walls, there was a long cabinet. An Zheng walked to one of the cabinets and opened up a drawer, the two metres long cabinet were all open up, the first floor was filled with all kinds of weapons, including the runes provided by the elite Da Xi army. There were also crossbows and daggers, which represented the identity of a law enforcer in the Ming Fa Si.
Pulling open the second level, there were all sorts of clothes. There were even uniforms of third rank and below that could not be seen by anyone. This was being prepared with the permission of the Holy Emperor Chen Wunuo, otherwise they definitely would not have been able to keep such clothes.
When he pulled open the third level, he found all sorts of famous plates with identities. There were also all kinds of medicine, as well as at least five hundred taels of silver and a few notes worth five hundred taels of silver.
When he pulled open the fourth floor, he found that the Ming Fa Si’s Equipment Department had made a unique set of tools and tools that were extremely practical. The most eye-catching thing was the three rows of nine spiritual lightning bolts. These Spirit Spell Thunder contained explosives with astonishing power.
An Zheng sat down and checked his equipment, then sat on the chair and started to think.
When they were separated, Zhong Jiuge had given him at least fifteen masks, one that even belonged to a woman. An Zheng’s gaze landed on the nine spirit lightning bolts. Although the power of this spirit lightning was astonishing, it was not enough to harm a Lower Celestial Stage Ranker. However, the outer shell of the lightning was extremely exquisite, it could be kept tightly sealed. An Zheng went over and took out all nine spiritual lightning bolts, carefully removed the fuses inside, and then poured out the explosives.
He had around five days, and in those five days, he needed to do a lot of things. An Zheng sat on the chair, with his hands deep inside his palms. A bright light flickered in his hands, and a ball of light with the power of the Heavenly Thunder of Nine Suns appeared in his hands. An Zheng carefully pushed the ball of light into the outer shell of the Spirit Law Lightning and sealed it. With An Zheng’s current cultivation realm, he could only use Heavenly Thunder of Nine Suns four times at most. Although his cultivation realm had increased a lot, the power of his Heavenly Thunder of Nine Suns had also increased, so the number of times he could use it within a day did not increase at all.
An Zheng sealed four Heavenly Thunder of Nine Suns s in one go. His face was already pale, and even his breathing had become hurried. He took out a medicinal pill and swallowed it. Then, he sat down cross-legged and began to recuperate his breathing and meridians. After resting for a full twenty-four hours, he only managed to recover ninety percent of the Cultivation Power that he had lost. After that was another twenty-four hours of rest. His Cultivation Power recovered eighty percent and he poured two Heavenly Thunder of Nine Suns s into it.
The outer shell of the nine spiritual energy mines had all been used up.
An Zheng took out a few crossbows, followed by arrows. He took out everything that he could use to shoot, and started to ponder on where the best place to take revenge would be. Left Swordhall had to come out by himself and kill him in the shortest amount of time possible. To An Zheng, this was an impossible mission.
The army had to depart in the future. If the Left Swordhall did not leave the army, An Zheng did not have any ways to save them. He carefully tied the nine spiritual lightning bolts onto the arrows and loaded them onto the crossbows. Then, An Zheng got up again and rummaged through the second cabinet for a while. He found some of the lowest grade hidden weapons, the Iron Tribulations. These Iron Tribulations were all about the size of half a fist and were all sharp spikes like sea urchins. An Zheng used his Broken Army Sword to dig out all of the iron tribulations, and then stuffed a Golden-Rank Pellet into every single one of the iron tribulations. That was what Qu Liuxi had prepared for him, something that could help him recover her vitality and treat his injuries.
After pondering for a moment, he took out three of the iron tribulations, hollowed them out, and took out the priceless Purple-Rank tool, the stone bottle that Purple Ivy had used to store the Energetic Ball. That was a Stellar Cast Iron, the most valuable material in the world. After joining a Stellar Cast Iron, a Golden-Rank Tool can become a Purple-Rank Divine Artifact.
This object was itself a Heavenly Treasure of the Purple-Rank, and the strength contained within it could not be underestimated. An Zheng thought for a moment, then used the Broken Army Sword to cut the bottle open, took out three pieces, and stuffed them into the iron tribulations. If Oldman Huo saw him do it, he would definitely chase after him with a walking stick.
that was the most valuable material. A finger sized Stellar Cast Iron could level up a weapon at the peak of the Golden-Rank.
The crafting furnace of the Oldman Huo was only the size of a fist.
An Zheng did not know how to forge artifacts, and so after several attempts, he failed and blew up the furnace.
He looked at the things he had prepared and calculated that three days had already passed. There were only less than two days left until his deadline.
He changed into the clothes of a Prince’s Mansion guard, put everything into a space tool, put on his mask, and left the sanctuary. According to the time, it was late at night when he came out. There was no one on the street.
There were less than 40 hours left, the enemy was a Lower Celestial Stage Ranker.
But An Zheng did not hesitate at all.
