In this battle between the red-armored cavalry and the deep-sea demons, the reason why there has been no demon at the level of the Demon Sovereign or even the Demon Lord is not because there are none in the sea, but because they, like the old general standing on the city wall, are both a kind of existence for deterrence on both sides.
But if the people on the city tower go downstairs, it is equivalent to telling the powerful demons lurking in the sea that the deterrence on both sides is over and they are ready for a life-and-death battle.
This has already been regarded as a tacit understanding that has been established by convention in the thousands of years of battles between the Zhenhai Tower and the sea monsters.
And now, Zhang Liang undoubtedly broke this tacit understanding.
“Old General, don’t take action first, let me give it a try！”
Just as Zhang Kaitai was about to take action, Xu Taiping suddenly pulled him back.
He could sense that if the commander-in-chief on this side took action, tonight’s first battle might directly turn into the final battle between the two sides.
And this was not what he wanted to see.
He also believed that the great demons lurking in the sea also did not want to launch a decisive battle before the sixth spawning of the Mermaid Queen was over.
Immediately, regardless of whether the old general agreed or not, he quickly snatched a bow from the hand of a nearby Red Armored Rider.
“Boom！”
After getting the bow, Xu Taiping did not hesitate to upgrade his Python Flood Dragon Physique from the Sleeping Flood Dragon Realm to the Awake Flood Dragon Realm.
After feeling the Qi and blood on Xu Taiping’s body that was almost at the peak of the Martial Saint, the old general who was originally going to stop him suddenly had his eyes light up, swallowed all the words he was going to say, and silently stood aside.
“Sou！”
Put on the arrow, draw the bow, release the finger.
In just one or two breaths, Xu Taiping shot an arrow towards the direction where the terrifying aura on the sea was coming from.
“Boom！”
The moment the arrow broke through the air and flew out, it immediately turned into a line of fire that cut through the night sky and shot straight from the city tower towards the sea.
“Bang！”
In the end, the arrow exploded into a ball of raging flames in the sky just over a hundred zhang away from the battlefield below.
By the light of the fire, everyone saw a merman man with long red hair, holding a bone spear, and with knotted muscles all over his body, just standing quietly in the air like that.
The swirling water around his body completely blocked the flames turned into by Xu Taiping’s arrow.
Even though he was several li away, Xu Taiping could still sense the killing intent in the man’s eyes looking at him.
“Boom！…
Just at this time, the qi and blood power in the merman man’s body also began to skyrocket, causing bursts of air explosion sounds all around.
His already very burly body instantly became more than three times thicker, and green tendons, like dragons and snakes coiled under the skin, covered his whole body.
“He accepted the challenge.”
The old general said with a sigh of relief.
In this battle, his Tianhai Pass was originally very hastily prepared. In such a short period of time, it was not easy to gather three thousand cavalry in this already half-abandoned city. If they were to fight tonight, even if they fight to the death defended the casualties would definitely be extremely heavy.
And he believed that the thoughts of those great demons in the sea were actually similar.
Hearing this, Xu Taiping also let out a soft breath and then nodded.
“Young Master Xu, you don’t have to fight to the death with it. Just hold on until the battle below is over.”
Since Xu Taiping was willing to make a move and had successfully made that great demon accept the challenge, General Zhang Kaitai also stopped being polite.
“Understood, but I’m afraid the Crimson Armor Cavalry below…”
Xu Taiping glanced down at the city and said worriedly.
“Our Crimson Armor Cavalry of Heavenly Customs are not so fragile. They will definitely wipe out these demons before you and that great demon decide the outcome.”
The old general said in a deep voice.
And the Crimson Armor Cavalry below the city, as if in response to the old general’s words, after several thousand organized a cavalry formation charge they finally rescued the seriously injured Zhang Chun and the surrounded Crimson Armor Cavalry.
“Men of Heavenly Customs, follow me to form a formation！”
Zhang Chun’s somewhat hoarse but still powerful voice came from below the City tower .
“I was overthinking.”
Xu Taiping, with his brows unfurled, nodded, and then with a flicker of his figure, he was already suspended in the night sky not far from the City tower .
“Boom！ ……”
Just at this moment, that red-haired shark demon tightly grasped the bone spear in its hand and then suddenly threw it towards Xu Taiping.
“Sou！”
In the sound of breaking through the air, that bone spear, with just a flash of light, was already only ten zhang away from Xu Taiping. It was about to penetrate through his chest.
However, Xu Taiping had long sensed the aura of this bone spear.
Just as the bone spear was about to stab his chest, he suddenly used his hand to hold the bone spear.
“Boom！”
The huge force inside the bone spear shook Xu Taiping’s body-protecting saber qi to automatically burst out of his body. The arm that held the bone spear had its muscles bulging and its tendons protruding. His body leaned back and even his front foot lifted up. If he continued to lean back, his body would fall.
Even the red-armored soldiers on the city tower behind were continuously pushed back by the gust of wind by the huge force in the bone spear.
It can be seen how great the power of this spear of the red-haired shark demon is.
“Demon Venerable Realm.”
The old general Zhang Kaitai had his brows tightly furrowed.
He, who had countless experiences of fighting against great demons, could already judge the cultivation base of the opponent just from this force.
Because of the blessing of the Burning Sea Formation, a Martial Saint at the half-step Refining God Realm seemingly could fight against a shark demon at the Demon Venerable Realm but the actual combat power was actually very different.
“Boom！”
Just as the old general Zhang Kaitai was filled with worry, as the turbid air that Xu Taiping used to suppress his acupoints was suddenly expelled from his body, his qi and blood power rose again.
“Bang！”
Finally, he forcefully grasped that bone spear, suddenly straightened his body, and at the same time stomped heavily with one foot, causing the astral wind supporting him to emit a harsh air explosion sound.
“Boom！”
Accompanied by a violent air wave spreading out from his whole body, the force from that bone spear was finally resolved by him.
Seeing this scene, the old general’s hanging heart was finally put down.
“Such profound qi and blood power, even the physique of a warrior at the peak of the Martial Saint Realm may not be able to compare with his. I didn’t expect that the Zhenwu Heaven with extremely thin martial luck would actually raise such a demon-like disciple in just a few hundred years.”
The old general looked at Xu Taiping’s physique that he couldn’t even pick out flaws in, and was shocked in his heart.
“Boom！”
Of course, what Zhang Kaitai didn’t expect was that just as he had just adjusted his evaluation of Xu Taiping, the qi and blood power on Xu Taiping’s body rose again.
Then, in the eyes of the old general Zhang Kaitai with a hint of horror, Xu Taiping upgraded the python and flood dragon physique from Awaken the Flood Dragon to Angry Flood Dragon.
In an instant, his already tall body grew another three feet taller.
From a distance, it was like a furious beast, with its blood and qi soaring to the sky.
”It’s your turn to take this spear of mine！”
Amid the sound of muscles and bones rubbing, Xu Taiping’s body leaned back, and the muscles on the arm holding the bone spear were knotted and the veins bulged.
Finally, he concentrated all the power of the Fury Flood Dragon Realm Python Flood Dragon Physique on his arm, and then took a sudden step forward.
”Bang！”
Amid the air explosion sound of stepping on the gale wind his arm forcefully threw the bone spear in his hand towards the direction of the Red-Haired Shark Demon.
”Boom！”
The ear-piercing sound of breaking through the air rang out and the bone spear wrapped in the flames of the Burning Sea Formation immediately turned into a thick line of fire, shooting straight at the Red-Haired Shark Demon.
