A strong wind blew and managed to blow away the group containing dozens of small and medium sect members. Soon, sharp thorns made of ice appeared and pierced dozens of soft prey that could not do much in the air.

JLB!

The sound of sharp objects penetrating the body was heard many times accompanied by groans of pain. Xika actually had no intention of injuring them all that badly, but it seemed that Liang Jihua did not care much.

The set!

Liang Jihua pulled back the ice, as dozens of helpless bodies fell to the ground. Some who still had power left using talismans and returned to the Academy, some who did not have power left could only resign themselves to waiting for fate.

Xika walked towards those who had no manpower left, and helped them return to the Academy. Liang Jihua behind looked at Xika strangely.

After finishing sending them back to the Academy, Xika turned her head and found the savage girl looking at her in surprise.

"What?"

"Why are you helping them?"

Shrugging her shoulders, Xika replied, "Our goal in this round is only to eliminate, not to kill. The attack you gave me was too violent to be life threatening."

Liang Jihua seemed to still have something on her head, but chose silence. After a while, the savage girl spoke again.

"Now what are we going to do?"

A short while later, Liang Jihua was surprised by the question he had asked himself. He rarely relied on others, even in big trouble. Only certain people he asked for help. And usually not men.

Maybe because Xika's strategy is good and running smoothly so far, Liang Jihua unknowingly so rely on Xika. Inwardly the girl was cursing herself, and promised not to rely on Xika anymore.

Xika was also silent for a while with a frown.

"The group containing the big sects they are talking about is us. Seeing the large number of their members earlier, I was worried that the actual members of their group were even more numerous. It was possible that by this time all the members of the middle and small sects had united to form an alliance."

"Then then......." Liang Jihua almost asked what we should do, but luckily he managed to stop himself.

"We should contact Zhen Fang and the others. They need to know this."

At that moment, the same question appeared in the minds of Xika and Liang Jihua. How-to? They have split up and have no means of communicating with each other. Xika had heard of an artifact that could allow two people who were far apart to communicate with each other, but Xika doubted that neither Yun Xingzhao nor Zhen Fang possessed such a rare artifact.

Suddenly an idea flashed through Liang Jihua's mind.

"Before, when we heard their words, how could you do that?"

"Hm? Ah, I just changed the direction of the wind until their voices were carried to a distance that our ears could reach. Why the hell?"

"Can you do the opposite? Change the direction of the wind to a distance that the other ear can reach."

Xika's eyes widened. "yes too. Miss Liang, you're a genius!"

Liang Jihua snorted in satisfaction. "Huh. Of course."

After closing her eyes for a while, Xika opened her eyes again then spoke. As he spoke, he flowed the wind to carry his voice in all directions, as he did not know for sure where Zhen Fang and the others were.

"Small and medium sects unite. The great sects will be allied. Guys, we need to unite!"

Xika's voice was carried away by the wind and scattered in all directions. No matter where Zhen Fang and the others were, they must have heard Xika's words. Moreover, the sentence that Xika spoke seemed to be two-way. So neither the opponent nor the friend who hears will immediately be able to distinguish, whether the one who speaks is an enemy or a friend.

But it should have been Zhen Fang and the others to recognize his voice. That's also if the other bastards remember his voice. Even if they don't know, they should understand the meaning of the sentence. At least they knew that the small and medium sects were all working together and the challenges they faced were now getting bigger.

"Now what?" ask Liang Jihua. Admittedly, he was amazed by Xika's ability to spread such a voice, let alone the election he said was good enough to confuse the enemy, but their friends should have understood.

"What else? We have to eliminate the other participants as much as we can."

Liang Jihua nodded, then darted away following Xika.

On the way, Xika discussed the next step they would take when meeting the enemy. This time he decided to take a different step. To save on the use of qi, they would simply scatter the ice powder to block Xika's wind-assisted vision.

The ice powder here does not need to be turned into sharp spines to save qi. After disturbing the opponent's vision, Xika and Liang Jihua would launch a sneak attack. I don't know how many opponents they can drop in that sneak attack, but at least it's good enough to save qi. The rest of them may have to improvise depending on the circumstances.

Soon enough, they find prey to their strategy experiment material. From a distance, there were many figures surrounding a stone. On the rock stood a man saying something.

Xika narrowed her eyes looking at the number of figures present. This time even more than before. More than twenty. If they could take down just five people in a sneak attack, it would ease the flow of the fight.

Due to the large number of figures present, the two agreed to directly attack without listening to the opponent's conversation first. Liang Jihua threw out her ice powder and Xika directly spread it using the wind.

Srak!

Whush!

"Hey, is this just my feeling or is the air getting colder?"

"Sshhhh!"

"But....."

"Shhhhhh!!!!"

Some others glared at the first man for being too noisy. They were listening to their group leader, the most talented person in their sect.

Shit!

Duk!

Bruk!

Xika lifts her legs and manages to take down a man. He coated his legs with wind and wrapped his opponent's body with wind, so the sound that sounded was not too loud and clear.

Initially, no one was aware of the man that Xika had dropped, as he was the noisy man before. His other friends were happy because he was silent. But a few moments later, the atmosphere became even quieter. By the time the group realized they were under attack, Xika had already taken down two more people.

"Be careful! The enemy deliberately spread this fog!"

Then, amidst the spreading panic, a calm and deep voice shouted, "Silence! Don't freak. Make formation! Do not let the enemy act!"

That calm and deep voice managed to ease the panic. The rest of the group immediately sat down and began to close their eyes while slowly connecting the qi to each other. Moments later, the ground rose in large numbers and was thick enough to surround the group.

THE DRTT!

THE SNACK!

"Tch!"

Xika clucked upset because it had been discovered by the enemy even though he had not subverted many enemy members. Now in front of the two stood a hard and thick stone wall. While Xika and Liang Jihua were still thinking about how to break through the fortress, one side of the fortress shriveled and launched a barrage of sharp thorns.

And who was in the firing line of sharp thorns was Liang Jihua. Without a second thought, Xika immediately threw down the savage girl to escape from the sharp thorns.

THE TRACK!THE TRACK!TRACKS

SHUSUH!

Liang Jihua survived, but that did not stop her from giving Xika a sharp look. Instead of being grateful, the girl's face even looked as if she would reply to Xika for this later.

GREB!

THE SNACK!

From below, the ground rose and twisted Xika's feet, then as a complement, sharp thorns also rose from the ground. The ground that held Xika's feet had an unusual quality compared to her opponent's previous techniques. It felt stronger and sturdy so it was difficult to break.

Liang Jihua swiftly formed a wall of ice that held back those sharp thorns. Unfortunately, Liang Jihua's ice wall was less powerful to hold the thorn, so he was forced to stand in front of Xika and resist the speed of the sharp thorn. Liang Jihua hoped the ice would stop the thorn, but all he could do was slow it down.

"Hurry up, you fool! Why so long?"

Xika clucked in annoyance. He was forced to use a large amount of qi at once to break the shackles of his feet. After that, he quickly moved away. Liang Jihua also immediately dodged after seeing Xika manage to escape.

Shuts!

Afterwards, the land fortress continued to fire sharp thorns that forced Xika and Liang Jihua to continuously dodge. After several hundred sharp thorns were fired, Xika's shoulder met with Liang Jihua's shoulder which successfully made the girl give a sharp look.

"Deliver the cold. Make the fort freeze. I'll break through it."

Liang Jihua had just nodded, when the fortress was split apart and showed over twenty people doing the same pose. Liang Jihua's danger instinct told him to run away immediately.

"Exit!"

"ATTACK!"

The same voice that had managed to ease the panic was now shouting an attacking order. Immediately the bodies of more than twenty people shone with the same light, then the light formed a mammoth body of twenty meters.

Then the body of the mammoth was lost to be absorbed by its tusks, which were now spinning ripping the wind towards Xika and Liang Jihua. At the same time, there was a scream,

"TWIN TUSK REVOLVER!"

Xika pushed Liang Jihua's shoulder for the girl to step aside then raised both her hands to hold back the twin tusks. Unfortunately, it didn't work. Xika only managed to slow down that ivory round a little. While clucking in annoyance, Xika turned the Space Shifter into a stick and coated it with a whirling wind as well.

"HEY!" Xika had not thought of a suitable name, so that was all she could shout. Well, at least the technique is quite capable of competing with the enemy's ivory rounds.

WHOSHS!

BRACKET!

Space Shifter Xika met with the opponent's twin tusks until a big clash was created. Xika again raised both of her hands and coated the Space Shifter with a constantly rotating wind. Unfortunately, that's not enough.

The combination of the second round of ivory was still able to push Space Shifter Xika bit by bit. Well after all, that spinning ivory technique combined the qi of more than twenty people. Xika can survive this long alone is more than great.

At this moment, Liang Jihua should either help Xika resist the attack, or give the enemy an attack because now their fortress is hollow. Maybe they did that to be able to see Xika and Liang Jihua clearly, but that made them vulnerable to attack.

Unfortunately, Liang Jihua could not choose. He was confused as to what he should do first, between helping Xika or attacking his opponent. As a result, it provides an opportunity for the opponent to attack.

A SHOCK!

THE DUAK!

BRUK!

The earth wall extended and hit Liang Jihua hard until he bounced a few meters. Although not in the form of sharp thorns, but the blow was enough to make Liang Jihua's head dizzy and could not stand for a while.

Not long after, Xika also followed. Finally, his opponent's twin tusks managed to repel Space Shifter Xika and crashed heavily into Xika. If Liang Jihua just crashed hard, Xika crashed while spinning with her stomach torn from the opponent's technique.

BRUK!

Blood dripped from Xika's mouth. His eyes frowned at the surroundings that were beginning to overshadow. Even so, he still tried to stand up.

A SHOCK!

BRACKET!

Suddenly, Xika became dark. At first, Xika thought she had lost consciousness. But faintly he could still see the figure of Liang Jihua lying not far from him. Then he has not lost consciousness. Why are they so dark around?

"Hahaha.......As planned, you're in my plans. How dare he challenge me, Tu Shi ( ⁇ )? Feel the consequences!"

Moments later, Xika realizes that they are trapped in an enemy fortress. The ground surrounded them and shut them up until they were darkened.

Now, what should he do?
