Chapter 413 Overwhelming Force
People were chasing, fighting and fleeing.
By daybreak, Recchi City was in complete chaos.
Wulan State was a very large country, and Recchi City was outside the scope of polar day and polar night, still having the normal alternation of day and night. But the light here was dimmer than other places in the late night and before dawn.
Dimness meant vagueness.
Vagueness meant chaos.
The dazzling light spread from the north of the city all the way to the center of the city with surging power. In the gloom of the environment, a surge of endless light blazed out in large areas, the area of the battle constantly shifting and expanding. The police, the army were all involved. The tremendous explosion was accompanied by flames and thunderbolts fell from the air. Shops, supermarkets, and cars lined up on either side of the road were reduced to ruins and debris by the tremendous force and explosion of gunpowder. More and more experts joined in the pursuit. Large numbers of troops began to block the surrounding roads, forming a human wall after another.
The fighting was intermittent.
In the midst of the thunderbolts and fire, there was a ray of sword light at times, destroying all the attacks, and then more lights fell. The extremely surging Sword Energy and light constantly changed position. The army, led by officers, had built ice walls that would have sealed almost all the intersections.
The moving space of the unreal but horrifying sword light was getting smaller and smaller. When there was no place to go, the sword light could only break down one ice wall after another, which had reached a thickness of tens of meters.
The sword light slowed down as it ruined the ice wall.
Huge chunks of ice were flying around, blood staining the ice and countless bodies lying in the streets. Although the situation for the looming sword light was more and more difficult, it still stayed there tenaciously.
Under the strong intervention of the Rekvia family, all the military, police and expert teams of Recchi City started to work.
The sheer numerical superiority was almost overwhelming.
One by one, the ice walls appeared in every corner of the battlefield; flashing blue light flew over, ravaging every inch of space. Li Tianlan’s moves were getting harder.
He did not underestimate the Rekvia family’s relationship with the Jiang family of South America, nor did he doubt this family’s influence in Recchi City, but he did not expect the Wulan State military to be able to respond so quickly.
From the north to the center of the city, in less than 20 minutes, the squad chasing him had become formidable.
By now, Li Tianlan had seen nearly six Thunder-shocking Realm experts, two Half-step Invincible Realm experts, and one Half-step Invincible Realm expert chasing him. Recchi City’s army was trying to restrain him at all costs. Even though they were losing a lot of people, they didn’t want to give Li Tianlan a break.
Time passed slowly.
The losses for the Wulan State were mounting.
And Li Tianlan’s stress was building.
Jiang Qiannian dropped all distractions and pestered Li Tianlan.
It wasn’t until this moment that he finally decided that Li Tianlan might not be the strongest Invincible Realm expert in the Dark World, but he was definitely the toughest.
After all, Li Tianlan had the Shadow Formula, the Desperate Chase, and the Night Walking.
Several of the best body movements of the Dark World had merged into him, making him fast, erratic, mysterious and unpredictable.
Jiang Qiannian had a headache dealing with him.
With the Dual Wind and Thunder Veins, Li Tianlan’s speed was no worse than the genuine Invincible Realm expert. Jiang Qiannian had trapped him in mortal danger many times, but each time what his power torn apart was a vivid, indistinguishable shadow. Not only could the shadow die for him, but it could swap places with the real Li Tianlan at will, which increased Li Tianlan’s flexibility several times at once.
When Li Tianlan was in this state, Jiang Qiannian was able to defeat him, but could not touch him.
Jiang Qiannian tried to suppress his inner impetuosity and had no intention of giving up.
The Night Walking was the ultimate assassination that made the user invisible.
The Desperate Chase could make a person’s speed quite fast; It was unrivaled in pursuit and evasion.
The Shadow Formula was unsurpassed, flexible and changeable.
The Dragon Fist was all-embracing.
The 24 Moves of Sword was unmatched.
Li Tianlan’s sword intent was moving and shimmering between the real and the unreal, with the power to tear the universe apart.
The Dual Wind and Thunder Veins were perfect.
From a hostile standpoint, what Li Tianlan had was enough to make his enemy desperate.
Jiang Qiannian wasn’t without a way to limit Li Tianlan.
The problem was that he had no chance to do that.
Opportunities were always fleeting. Li Tianlan was too fast, too fast for Jiang Qiannian to take a shot.
What he needed was distance.
As long as he and Li Tianlan were within 30 meters, no matter how many cards Li Tianlan had, it was useless.
Li Tianlan wasn’t really invincible after all. Jiang Qiannian could completely imprison him by the ever-changing Thirty-meter Mortal World.
In the blood and fire that filled the whole battlefield, the battle had been deadlocked.
Li Tianlan can’t seem to get away.
But Jiang Qiannian couldn’t get within the range he wanted.
The whole battlefield shifted in the center of the city, smashing several blocks in succession. At one point, Jiang Qiannian seemed to come closer to Li Tianlan, but before he could make a move, Li Tianlan had traded places with his shadow.
The sky of Recchi City gradually brightened.
The whole city was in complete chaos.
There were many troops closing in on the battlefield, broken ice walls, raging thunderbolts, piles of bodies and blood. The city government had issued an emergency notice, but there still were many pedestrians affected. The fire in the center of the city continued to burn, sending black smoke into the sky. The whole city looked as if it had entered a period of war. It was a completely apocalyptic picture.
An order after another was issued from Recchi City.
All the troops around the city were mobilized.
At 5:30 a.m., Wulan State officially launched and approved a plan—they were determined to besiege the city!
In a personal address to the world and the people of the country, Wulan State’s president said that Recchi City was going through a disaster, and he asked the people to continue to have faith in their government.
At the same time, Wulan State’s foreign minister made a series of phone calls to Zhongzhou State, demanding an explanation for Li Tianlan, Commander of the Snowdance Corps, who had sabotaged Recchi City.
Wulan State’s ambassador to the UN asked for a meeting to demand an explanation and compensation from Zhongzhou State.
The Rekvia family’s deep-rooted dominance of Wulan State exploded into a frenzy in the shortest time.
The UN was still reviewing the conference applications.
But Recchi City’s
disaster
was known around the world.
The world was watching Recchi City.
Also they kept an eye on Zhongzhou State and the Snowdance Corps.
It all happened so fast.
It was too fast to react.
By the time everyone received the news, the whole situation had gone completely out of control.
In the face of the question of Wulan State, other powers’ implicit or strong hint, Zhongzhou State could only temporarily keep silent.
…
…
But the Snowdance Corps was no longer silent.
…
…
…
Just as the whole world was preparing to denounce Zhongzhou State, an elite army of 5,000 men of the Snowdance Corps left the campsite of the Zhongzhou State Garrison in Eyme and marched on Wulan State!
It tapped a disturbing trend in the world.
Star State, Snow Country, France, England, Germany, and many of the world’s great powers called Zhongzhou State and demanded that they exercised restraint.
Eastern Europe was in a mess.
But no one wanted a really big war in eastern Europe if it was possible.
It was in everyone’s best interest to keep everything under control in the conflict of the Dark World.
The problem, however, was that today’s Snowdance Corps seemed to be completely out of control.
Zhongzhou State couldn’t reach Li Tianlan, or even Chen Qingluan, vice marshal of the Snowdance Corps.
…
At 5:50 am, the speech of Wulan State’s president to the world had come to an end.
He officially defined Zhongzhou State as a hostile country and declared that all members of the Snowdance Corps to be terrorists. Any force and country that provided sanctuary to the Snowdance Corps would become the enemy of Wulan State. Wulan State would fight against the enemy at all costs and maintain the dignity of the state.
The influence of the Rekvia family had become a giant hand that stirred up the countries around Wulan State. At one point, three countries in eastern Europe, including Wulan State, simultaneously defined Zhongzhou State as a hostile country and the Snowdance Corps as a terrorist.
No one could have imagined the intensity of Zhongzhou Stat’s entering into eastern Europe.
Also, no one could have imagined that Li Tianlan’s actions would set off such a huge chain reaction.
The Snowdance Corps was out of control.
Li Tianlan was also completely out of anyone’s control.
Besides, the situation was also getting out of hand.
The question was whether Li Tianlan could handle the situation.
For now, it looked like there was no turning back for Li Tianlan.
…
…
…
On Mount Dibing in Beihai Province, Wang Tianzong listened to Chen Qingluan’s call in silence and was silent for a long time.
Chen Qingluan was the direct member of Wang Qinglei’s side, and although the internal hidden trouble in the Wang family of Beihai was serious, under the circumstance that contradiction had not been disclosed, everything was not clear.
Wang Qinglei did not oppose Chen Qingluan to get the position of the vice marshal of the Snowdance Corps and did not give him any hint either. So, Chen Qingluan was naturally conscientious.
What excited him even more was Li Tianlan’s recklessness.
He didn’t know Li Tianlan’s plans. He was not even sure if the young man had a plan.
Li Tianlan got off the plane and immediately headed for Recchi City. It was a pity that he was not strong enough, causing him to make such a mess. Chen Qingluan was almost tempted to cheer.
This was definitely a good chance. Maybe Li Tianlan’s behavior should not be defined as treason, but as the situation developed, the pressure on Zhongzhou State was increasing. If the Wang family of Beihai and Kunlun City joined forces, they might be able to force Zhongzhou State to give up Li Tianlan. Declaring that Li Tianlan was a traitor of Zhongzhou State would not only make the pressure in Zhongzhou State disappear, but also make Chen Qingluan, the current vice marshal of the Snowdance Corps, the best candidate to serve as the Commander of the Snowdance Corps in order to the stability of the corps.
So on the phone, in the face of Wang Tianzong, whom was both awed by and estranged from, Chen Qingluan’s tone was so excited that he lost his composure.
This is an opportunity, Your Majesty. How about we and Kunlun City jointly push it?
No hurry.
Wang Tianzong was silent for a long time before slowly saying,
It’s not over yet. Don’t jump to conclusions. Wait and see.
Er…
Chen Qingluan was stunned.
Wang Tianzong hung up in silence.
But before the phone hung up, his words make Chen Qingluan’s heart leap.
I’ll be in eastern Europe by tonight.
…
…
At six o’clock in the morning, all the troops in Recchi City were completely assembled.
Troops from all nearby cities were all mobilized.
Recchi City was completely cordoned off inside and outside.
Li Tianlan did his best to move the battlefield. His actions became more difficult.
The chase continued.
Jiang Qiannian was less than 40 meters from Li Tianlan.
The battlefield shifted from the north of the city to the center of the city, a distance of more than 30 kilometers.
The fight that frightened everyone was coming to an end.
Ahead of them was the Recchi City Saint Ray Memorial Square.
For the entire Wulan State, this was a sacred land of heroes.
Jiang Qiannian suddenly thought the square was really good.
Although the square was destined to be a ruin in this battle, Li Tianlan deserved the honor.
They were approaching the square.
They kept getting closer.
In the square, more than a dozen monuments with a height of tens of meters appeared to be extremely dignified and solemn in the dawn sky.
The morning sun shot across the sky.
And it shone from the east.
Jiang Qiannian narrowed his eyes unconsciously.
His vision drifted for a moment.
The next second, Li Tianlan’s bloody figure suddenly disappeared in the sunlight.
Jiang Qiannian took his time and just sneered.
Now the so-called concealment body movement and optical camouflage were no longer meaningful.
It was because eastern Europe was too cold.
The square, surrounded by tens of thousands of troops, was even colder.
An ice wall covering the whole square was spreading out.
The ice wall formed made by tens of thousands of people was almost equivalent to a glacier.
Even Jiang Qiannian, or even the last few experts on the Divine List, would have a hard time breaking an ice wall on this scale. No matter how tough Li Tianlan was, so what?
From all sides the army began to gather towards the center of the square.
The ice was so concentrated that it blocked out the sun and slowly squeezed in.
Jiang Qiannian’s figure got into the square’s forest of monuments.
There were wisps of light coming out of him, sweeping forward.
The light completely covered Jiang Qiannian’s body, and his blood disappeared from all eyes.
The light completely covered him.
Jiang Qiannian moved forward slowly, like a blazing sun that moved leisurely.
The light kept flowing.
The Glorious Sept of the Thirty-meter Mortal World!
In a split second, all the light, centered on Jiang Qiannian, spread out and covered the square.
In the strongest domain of the Jiang family of South America, all optical camouflage was meaningless.
Jiang Qiannian saw Li Tianlan.
All the experts who followed him also saw their targets.
He stood on the tallest monument in the monument forest, holding a sword.
The sword intent whistled out in the blade of Falling Stars.
As soon as his figure appeared in the domain, the silver light suddenly rose into the sky.
The sword came straight through.
The silver light burst out.
The sword intent was completely introverted in this strike, so it looked ordinary.
But everything that the nihilistic sword intent passed became very real in an instant.
The silver blade was still moving forward.
Li Tianlan took a step.
The light around had changed from reality to nothingness, from nothingness to falsehood.
But the unreal sword intent appeared in front of all people, and it looked so real.
The sword seemed to pierce the space.
The sword light was bright.
The Sword Energy had been overwhelming and surging down.
It was the move of Breaking the Sea.
The Sword Energy enveloped all the experts including Jiang Qiannian.
The blood sputtered out.
Jiang Qiannian kept his cool.
He was even in the mood to smile when the Sword Energy was about to engulf him.
The Poles Apart of the Thirty-meter Mortal World.
The One-decimeter Human World was extremely fast.
But the Poles Apart was even faster.
The whole space was clearly twisted, and Jiang Qiannian’s figure retreated like a cannonball. In the blink of an eye, his figure almost disappeared from Li Tianlan’s sight.
Li Tianlan raised his eyebrows with a jerk, and the Falling Stars moved forward again, as if in pursuit.
Why can’t you see me?
A peaceful voice with the spiteful smile jerked up behind Li Tianlan.
Bang!
Jiang Qiannian, who seemed to be far away, appeared directly behind Li Tianlan with his fist hitting him hard in the back of the heart.
Thick blood spurted from Li Tianlan’s mouth.
But the heavy blow did not send him flying.
All the force rushed into him, and it exploded into a terrible internal wound.
Jiang Qiannian laughed.
…
…
…
Li Tianlan had the Shadow Formula, the Desperate Chase and the Night Walking, which were all the best body movements in the Dark World.
But not all of the top body movements in the Dark World belonged to the Li family.
The Thirty-meter Mortal World was the strongest unique skill of the Jiang family of South America.
In other words, this was the only unique skill in the Jiang family of South America.
But the endless changes were just as profound.
The One-decimeter Human World was a kind of body movement.
So was the Poles Apart.
Li Tianlan’s body bent over subconsciously.
Vast spread of the domain gathered rapidly, with a crazy killing intent.
It was the Gloomy Hell of the Thirty-meter Mortal World!
Then the domain gathered.
The wind blew cold in every corner of the domain.
One after another of the air masses coalesced in the closed domain and eventually all became knives and swords.
The knives and swords were all over Li Tianlan.
Li Tianlan, in a state of severe injury, took the move of the Gloomy Hell. It was hard for him to be left whole, let alone alive.
Another punch from Jiang Qiannian came.
Li Tianlan disappeared in an instant.
A shadow broke before Jiang Qiannian.
Li Tianlan’s figure moved two steps across, changing places and facing Jiang Qiannian.
The two stood within five meters of each other on the same monument.
Just die in peace.
Jiang Qiannian sneered and clenched his fist to hit Li Tianlan again.
The knives and swords that filled every corner of the domain shocked at the same time, like a huge flood, surging toward Li Tianlan.
Li Tianlan held the Falling Stars in his hands.
Then he held the sword up to his eyebrows.
This move was not a unique skill.
It was only a sword intent.
The purest sword intent turned violently on the Falling Stars, charging at the dense knives and swords that took up the field of view.
The knives and swords died in the sword intent.
But more knives and swords were coming.
The domain of the Thirty-meter Mortal World was getting thicker and thicker, becoming impregnable.
Li Tianlan’s sword intent kept spinning in the domain, but it never quite made it.
There was no skill to make up for this.
This was the gap between an expert at the Invincible Realm on the Holy List and an expert at the Invincible Level.
It was bare, obvious and close, but unreachable.
It was a close one, but there was a clear winner.
Li Tianlan’s sword intent was getting weaker and weaker.
Within the domain, the mighty knives and swords became a bigger and bigger torrent, pressing down on Li Tianlan’s body.
Jiang Qiannian, who was also maintaining his domain with all his strength, squinted, ready to move on.
Boom!
The whole monument, tens of meters high and nearly 10 meters wide, trembled.
A heat wave, raging like lava, rose from beneath his feet.
The distant armies were still slowly gathering on the square.
There was sword light in a few unknown corners on the square, as well as stormy or unstable situation.
It was like a pre-arranged plan, but also like a temporary rescue.
…
The sword light surged out. No one knew how long the killing intent had been ambushed here, but it burst out when at the height of Jiang Qiannian’s slackness.
Jiang Qiannian looked down.
This was the moment that he finally understood why Li Tianlan would have preferred to go in that direction even if his injuries would be worse.
He looked over the tall monument and saw a thin old man who had gone bald.
The old man appeared silently at the foot of the monument, holding one corner in his hand.
The raging flame was like the surging waves constantly stirred up.
The whole stone monument suddenly turned red and even a little transparent.
The old man’s arm gave a sharp jolt.
The whole monument vibrated in the endless heat.
The thin old man seemed to pull the whole monument of dozens of meters high up from the ground with one hand.
His strength was strong enough to shook mountains and rivers!
