Time Travel: The Survival of Li Zhi

Chapter 309: Head-cutting Ceremony

Chen Hua was defeated.

He was defeated by Nangong Wen's last shot.

Although Li Zhi did not personally participate in this fierce battle and had never used a gun, he saw very clearly that Nangong Wen's last shot was not ordinary at all, and that shot contained multiple forces.

What was even more terrifying was that these powers were not scattered randomly, but were cleverly superimposed one after another. Each layer of power echoed and supported each other, making the power of this shot increase exponentially, reaching a staggering level.

Because of this, even Chen Hua, who had an indestructible body that was invulnerable to swords and guns, could not withstand the power of the gun and could only be defeated regretfully.

Li Zhi's eyes flickered slightly, and his thoughts drifted away involuntarily. He began to put himself in Chen Hua's position in his mind, and felt and thought from his perspective.

After some deduction and analysis, he found that even he would be unable to withstand and resist Nangong Wen's exquisite and powerful shot.

The layers of strength were like a towering mountain, standing in front of one's face, making one feel daunted.

Even the earth armor, the most defensive one among Li Zhi's Five Elements and Five Armors, might not be able to block this shot.

However, Li Zhi did not feel the slightest fear or retreat.

After all, a battle is not just about head-on clashes. Things change rapidly in a battle. Whether it is Nangong Wen or Chen Hua who has an indestructible body that is invulnerable to swords and guns, Li Zhi is confident that he can defeat them!

This is the confidence that Li Zhi has accumulated through battle after battle, and it is also his full confidence in his own abilities.

 …

At this time, Nangong Wen on the ring held the tiger-head spear tightly in his hand and stood with the spear. His chest rose and fell slightly, and he was breathing slightly.

Obviously, the fierce battle with Chen Hua just now had already consumed a lot of his physical strength and energy.

Chen Hua’s strength is indeed not weak, and he is definitely not an easy person to deal with.

Although Nangong Wenxiao finally won and successfully defeated Chen Hua, he almost exhausted all his skills to achieve victory.

Li Zhi stood aside and took in Nangong Wen's condition. He raised his eyebrows slightly and thought to himself: Nangong Wen is now showing signs of fatigue, and I'm afraid he will be targeted by some people who want to reap the benefits.

Those who wanted to reap the benefits had all been turned down by Li Zhi, and at this moment Nangong Wen was undoubtedly their perfect target.

Sure enough, when Chen Hua was carried off the ring, someone immediately jumped up impatiently and jumped onto the ring like a black lightning.

The man had a long horse face and a thin complexion. He was wearing the same black reserve uniform as Chen Hua.

He looked at Nangong Wen in front of him, showed a grim smile, then clasped his fists and said, "Reserve, Guo Dong."

How could Nangong Wen not see this person's little thoughts?

He was full of disdain and contempt for Guo Dong's behavior of taking advantage of others, so he chuckled disdainfully, and the laughter was full of sarcasm and contempt.

He was even too lazy to return the greeting to Guo Dong by clasping his fists. He just tightly grasped the bladed tiger-head gun in his right hand and pressed the butt of the gun heavily to the ground.

He said bluntly: "Stop talking nonsense. Since you're here, just beat me!"

Guo Dong was in a hurry to go on stage, his original purpose was to prevent Nangong Wen from having time to recover his strength and adjust his condition. When he heard Nangong Wen say this, he was secretly happy, as this was exactly what he wanted.

So, without any hesitation, and without feeling the slightest bit embarrassed for taking advantage of someone's misfortune, he pounced on Nangong Wen fiercely like a hungry wolf pouncing on its prey.

A fierce look flashed in Nangong Wen's eyes. His steps were firm and powerful. The tiger-head spear in his hand instantly danced like a dragon emerging from the sea. The tip of the spear flashed a cold light in the air, cutting through the air, making a sharp whistling sound, and stabbed towards Guo Dong!

 …

Li Zhi shifted his gaze away from the ring where Nangong Wen and Guo Dong were fighting fiercely. To him, Nangong Wen had already shown signs of fatigue. Even if he could defeat Guo Dong again, there would surely be others who would continue to challenge him in the future.

After all, under the special rules of defending and challenging, once someone shows signs of fatigue, his fate is doomed.

Even if Nangong Wen is extremely powerful and eventually defeats those challengers one by one, by then, he will definitely be at the end of his strength. Will he have the energy left to deal with himself?

As for Guo Dong, in Li Zhi's opinion, he is nothing but a clown.

Therefore, no matter who wins or loses between the two of them, they will no longer pose any threat to Li Zhi.

At this moment, a cry of surprise suddenly came from the side of Li Zhi.

Li Zhi's heart moved, and he looked back subconsciously. This look made his eyes narrow slightly, and his eyes revealed a hint of solemnity and vigilance.

On the arena, there was a man wearing the black tights unique to the reserve forces. He held a nine-ring broadsword tightly in both hands. The broadsword flashed a cold light under the sunlight. The nine rings on the blade collided with each other as he moved, making a crisp and chilling tinkling sound.

At this moment, he was suppressing his opponent with overwhelming advantage. Every swing of his sword carried the momentum of splitting mountains and splitting rocks, making his opponent exhausted and unable to fight back.

Li Zhi recognized this man; it was the reserve soldier Duan Heng!

This was the person that Hong Fan had specifically reminded Li Zhi to pay special attention to, and it was said that he was very close to the King of Zhou and had a close relationship with him.

Therefore, Li Zhi went out of his way to look at the relevant information about this person and was well aware of his strength.

Although this person is in the reserve force, his strength is so strong that it is astonishing. He has been recognized as the top master in the reserve force for five consecutive years.

Originally, with his ability and qualifications, he was fully qualified to join any branch of the Night Patrol Department.

But he had huge ambitions in his heart and was unwilling to start from a small Earthly Branch, so he had been lurking in the reserve, quietly waiting for the best opportunity to come, trying to take on the position of Protector in one fell swoop, so as to ascend to the top in one step, control greater power, and realize his grand ambitions.

This kind of person is strong, ruthless, and patient enough that even Li Zhi thinks he is truly extraordinary.

Seeing this man fighting on the ring at this moment, Li Zhi became more arrogant and arrogant.

Because Duan Heng's strength was obviously much higher than his opponent's. He could obviously end the battle quickly with his overwhelming strength, but he chose not to do so.

He seemed to be suppressing his opponent, but he was deliberately holding back, leaving his opponent struggling on the brink of despair. Although he was suppressed by him, he still held on to a glimmer of hope, fantasizing about a comeback.

Duan Heng's behavior at this moment was clearly like a cat playing with a mouse, playing with his opponent in a playful manner.

Perhaps because he felt that this one-sided crushing was too boring, Duan Heng suddenly and deliberately revealed a flaw.

This flaw was extremely obvious, and was very noticeable in the eyes of Li Zhi and other spectators.

However, Duan Heng's opponent was so stuck in the quagmire of the battle, he was extremely nervous, and blinded by the hope of a comeback that he did not realize that Duan Heng had deliberately exposed the flaw.

He really thought that Duan Heng had finally revealed his fatal weakness. For a moment, he seemed to see the dawn of victory. He shot up like a ignited rocket, trying to seize this hard-won opportunity to give Duan Heng a fatal blow.

But before he could take the next step, Duan Heng revealed a ferocious grin, which was full of ridicule and disdain.

Then, he swung the nine-ring broadsword in his hand violently, and the sword hit the man heavily like a mountain falling down on his head.

There was a dull thud, and the man's body was thrown out like a cannonball and fell heavily to the ground.

The deep knife wound on his body almost split him in two. Blood gushed out from the wound like a fountain, instantly dyeing the ground beneath him red.

This was obviously the result of Duan Heng knowing full well that the rules of the fight did not allow killing, so he deliberately held back at the last moment.

However, with such a serious injury, I am afraid that this person will not be able to recover without more than half a year of careful rest.

Duan Heng on the ring glanced with disdain at the challengers who were shrinking back below the stage. He did not speak, but the deterrence revealed in his eyes was as real as substance, making people tremble with fear.

For a moment, no one dared to challenge him on stage, and the entire arena fell into dead silence.

Suddenly, Duan Heng seemed to notice Li Zhi's gaze, and he slowly turned his head to look at Li Zhi.

The two people's eyes met in the air, as if sparks were flashing between them.

Then, Duan Heng stretched out his palm and slowly gestured at his neck.

Li Zhi's eyes flashed, this is...

The beheading ceremony!
