Getting Stronger By Fighting

As they spoke, they saw that person already preparing to walk outside the ruins.

Just as Wang Zhan was ready to act, the voice of the Sword Spirit suddenly came into his mind.

"The Fire Qilin has always been locked outside, and there’s only one exit from the ruins, indicating that this person followed us in here and yet wasn’t discovered by the Fire Qilin. Notice how terrifying his strength is."

"If you were to confront him head-on here, I’m worried that the two of you wouldn’t be his match..."

"It would also be a losing bargain."

Wang Zhan’s lips curled into a cold smile, "Do I just give up the Divine Heart to him for nothing?"

There are quite a few people inside Tian Pavilion, even if he himself can’t fully absorb the Divine Heart, he can still take it back for everyone to try. Of course, if the outcome remains poor, he will keep the Divine Heart to himself.

Why give it away for free?

The Sword Spirit slightly furrowed its brow, hesitated for a moment, and then continued speaking, "But if you act here, you might not be able to retrieve the Divine Heart. I can’t see through this guy’s strength, which is my biggest concern..."

The Sword Spirit was very prudent in its actions, knowledgeable, and highly trusting of its own instincts.

Which is why it was so worried.

Standing beside Wang Zhan, Li Du didn’t know Wang Zhan was conversing with the Sword Spirit and instead said indifferently, "Brother Wang, are you not planning to stop him?"

"He took something that does not belong to him. I naturally won’t let him leave easily."

Wang Zhan snorted coldly, then moved towards the person, directly blocking his path.

The man stopped in his tracks, glanced at Wang Zhan, then squinted slightly, spoke indifferently, "I advise you not to meddle. After all, I have no intention of killing you. Now that the Divine Heart is in hand, my mission is complete. However, if you both persist in your folly, I don’t mind an all-out massacre here!"

Ha...

Wang Zhan and Li Du exchanged glances, and a faint smile appeared at the corners of their eyes.

It was their first time seeing someone so arrogant.

The next moment, Wang Zhan was the first to act.

"Ten Thousand Flaming Sword Formation!"

Since the Sword Spirit had already warned Wang Zhan, he decided not to waste any more time and had to use his killing move immediately.

In mid-air appeared numerous flames of red longswords, which quickly fell beside the man, forming a sword formation.

The man squinted slightly as he looked at the Ten Thousand Flaming Sword Formation beside him. A scornful smile appeared at the corners of his mouth, then he shook his head and spoke indifferently, "I must say, your sword formation has some merit, but your strength is lacking. Thus, the sword formation displayed is nothing much and poses no real threat to me."

As he spoke, the man slowly raised his fist, and as he clenched it tightly, the Ten Thousand Flaming Sword Formation suddenly exploded, and the longswords rapidly fell to the surroundings.

Wang Zhan instinctively stepped back a few paces, his eyes widening, and his breathing suddenly became much more rapid.

He had never expected that the Ten Thousand Flaming Sword Formation could not withstand even a single attack from the man.

One should know, during this time, Wang Zhan had been invincible, even if he was outmatched, he could use the Ten Thousand Flaming Sword Formation to gain some advantage.

But he never thought that the man before him could so easily dismantle the Ten Thousand Flaming Sword Formation. Truly terrifying...

This showed the gap between the two.

Li Du, standing to the side, also slightly furrowed his brow and halted his actions. He may not have fought Wang Zhan, but he knew Wang Zhan’s strength well, and if the two were to fight, it might result in mutual damage.

And just now Wang Zhan had displayed his killing move without causing any threat to the man before them, how could Li Du dare to act rashly?

Reason ultimately triumphs over all.

Time passed second by second.

The three continued standing, staring at each other.

The man glanced at Wang Zhan disdainfully, and impatiently said, "I don’t have time to waste with you here. If you don’t get out of the way, don’t blame me for being rude."

Wang Zhan slightly furrowed his brow, momentarily unsure how to proceed.

If he truly stepped aside, the man before him would leave with the Divine Heart, but if he didn’t, they would be forced into a fight.

Consequences would be unimaginable...

Even with Li Du’s help, he didn’t have the certainty of victory.

"Are you ready to act?"

The man was already impatient. Although the other people in the ruins had been dealt with by Wang Zhan and Li Du, the commotion from the opening of the ruins was too great. Who knows if others would come rushing over?

He just wants to find a place to quietly refine the Divine Heart; this is the most important thing.

"Let him go..."

Just as Li Du was about to make a move, Wang Zhan spoke calmly.

"Heh..."

The man let out a faint smile, glanced at Wang Zhan twice, then nodded in satisfaction and said, "I must say, you’re quite smart."

"If you continue to stand against me, it won’t do you much good either."

As he spoke, the man was already heading towards the door.

Wang Zhan and Li Du kept their eyes on his back, full of anger, but they didn’t make a move.

After watching the man leave, Wang Zhan turned his gaze to Li Du and said calmly, "You don’t seem very happy?"

"What do you think?"

Li Du’s voice was extremely cold, after a moment, he said, "We struggled hard to overcome numerous obstacles to get here, just to take the Divine Heart, but I never expected someone else to snatch it away, it’s really infuriating..."

Wang Zhan nodded in agreement, feeling uncomfortable, but what else could they do?

Everyone knew that on the Star War Battlefield, the strong rule.

If you don’t have the strength, you can only accept the situation.

Li Du spoke again, "But since someone has taken it, it doesn’t matter anymore. It’s in the past, so what can we do?"

Wang Zhan nodded, patted Li Du on the shoulder, and smiled, "It’s just a Divine Heart, and it doesn’t have much use for us, so there’s no need to dwell on it."

Though he said this, Li Du still felt uncomfortable inside.

But in the end, he nodded.

In the blink of an eye, the two of them were already heading towards the door.

After a while, they saw the Fire Qilin and Xiang Tian.

"So soon?"

Having taken the elixirs, Xiang Tian had recovered quite a bit. He got up and walked to Wang Zhan and Li Du, and curiously asked, "Did you manage to find the Divine Heart?"

Wang Zhan and Li Du exchanged a glance, then a helpless smile appeared on their faces.

"The Divine Heart was found, but unfortunately, neither of us had fate with it and had to give it to others..."

"Gave it to others?"

Upon hearing this, Xiang Tian’s eyes widened, quickly saying, "Brother Wang, you must be joking with me, right? The Divine Heart is such a precious thing, how could you give it away easily?"

"Even if neither of you could absorb all the power within it, there are so many people around us, we could have handed it over to them to handle."

The Fire Qilin walked up to them and said calmly, "I think they’re joking, there’s no one else here. If there was an intruder, I would sense it immediately, yet I felt nothing."

Heh...

Upon hearing this, Wang Zhan let out a cold laugh, "Precisely because of this, we didn’t act rashly, because that person’s power is too formidable, even if the two of us joined forces, we’re not a match for him. And if he could evade your tracking, I suppose you should understand his abilities, right?"

The Fire Qilin was also taken aback; he never expected that such an expert had entered the ruins.

For a moment, the Fire Qilin’s expression turned much more solemn. After hesitating, he said, "Did the other party make a move on you?"

"No."

Wang Zhan shook his head and spoke again, "We just had a brief touch, but I felt his terrifying power. If we continued fighting, we’d surely suffer, so we naturally avoid engaging easily."

"Might as well give the Divine Heart to him, in exchange for our safety."

Only then did the Fire Qilin nod and stop speaking, and in a flash, turned into a fiery red light and entered Wang Zhan’s chest.

Apparently, his mission was complete.

There’s no need to waste time here.

In a blink, Wang Zhan waved to the two beside him and headed towards the door.

Now this place holds no meaning, they naturally don’t need to stay longer.

Better to avoid any unforeseen mishaps.
