In this chaotic world of martial arts, I'll become a god by adding skill points!

Chapter 78 The Great Battle (Part 1)

The old man, Li Kui, looked at Huang Yao standing next to him, his eyes revealing an indescribable feeling.

A standoff has now formed in the arena, consisting of Chen Chaoming, Fei Hong, Chen Zhiyang, the rogue cultivator who helped earlier, and Chen Chaoming's brother-in-law.

There are five Transformation Realm experts in total. Among them, Fei Hong is at the middle stage of Transformation Realm, while the others are at the early stage.

As for Chen Jinghua, his strength, along with that of the old man and the young man, was at the mid-stage and early-stage of the Transformation Realm, respectively.

In addition, the head of the Sun family martial arts school and the patriarch of the Li family are most likely also at the early stage of the Transformation Realm.

In this comparison, the top combat power of the two sides seems to be about the same.

However, the strength of those at lower levels, such as hidden strength and manifest strength, is far inferior.

Chen Jinghua's face was gloomy. He never expected that what was originally a situation of working together from the inside and outside to catch a turtle in a jar would turn out like this.

At this moment, Fei Hong raised his long sword and said loudly, "Those who surrender will fight alongside us and share in our glory and wealth."

Anyone who resists will perish here today!

Before he could finish speaking, his private soldiers shouted in unison, "Rebel! Rebel! Overthrow the court and share in the glory!"

The deafening roar drowned out all the chaos and screams, echoing throughout the entire Zhenyuan County.

Revolt! Revolt! Overthrow the court and share in the glory!

The deafening roar had not yet subsided when the new master of Longyuan Martial Arts School roared, "Stop spreading rumors and misleading the public! Chen Chaoming and Fei Hong, you are colluding with rebels and plotting rebellion!"

Today I will act on behalf of Heaven to eliminate you two traitors and rebels!

Before he finished speaking, he took the initiative to attack, his figure flashed, and his aura of mastering the Dark Force suddenly erupted.

Holding a long sword, he charged towards Chen Chaoming.

The disciples of the Sun Family Martial Arts School behind them also drew their weapons and roared as they followed.

Almost simultaneously, the head of the Sun Family Martial Arts School, his eyes bloodshot, roared, "Chen Chaoming, you're threatening me with your family! I'll fight you to the death!"

His aura, at the initial stage of the Transformation Realm, erupted from his body, and his palm strike, carrying a powerful force, struck Chen Chaoming's chest.

The disciples of the Sun family martial arts school followed closely behind and engaged in fierce combat with the disciples of the Chen family martial arts school.

The Li family patriarch, not to be outdone, waved his hand, signaling his family members to take action: "Even if it means fighting to the death, we cannot let them succeed!"

In an instant, the martial arts school courtyard was in complete chaos, with shouts of killing, the clash of weapons, screams, and the sounds of tables and chairs breaking all mixed together.

The originally festive red silk was torn by the wind and flew everywhere, with tea, snacks, and broken tableware scattered all over the ground.

Blood instantly stained the bluestone path in the courtyard, creating utter chaos. Upon seeing this, a ruthless glint flashed in Chen Jinghua's eyes, and his aura as a mid-stage Transformation Realm expert erupted completely.

He broke free from Chen Chaoming's grasp and shouted angrily, "Chen Chaoming, you have treacherous ambitions; today is your death day!"

At the same time, an elderly man and a young man at the entrance of the pharmacy also moved.

The old man, Li Kui, circulated his early-stage Transformation Realm aura. He grabbed Huang Yao and, in a flash, rushed towards Fei Hong.

Although Huang Yao was not as strong as the others, she still held a short sword and remained vigilant, waiting for an opportunity to act.

They were originally Chen Jinghua's secret backup plan, but now that the standoff has broken down, they no longer hide.

"Well done!"

Chen Chaoming sneered, turned around abruptly, raised his hand to block, and the energy in his palm collided with Chen Jinghua's palm wind.

With a muffled thud, a shockwave rippled outwards, and the two men each took two steps back, cracking the bluestone slab beneath their feet.

"You collude with foreign enemies and oppress the people; you are the true traitors and rebels! Today, we will settle your scores!"

""

Chen Chaoming roared and charged forward again, unleashing his Xingyi Quan moves with fierce force.

He was locked in combat with Chen Jinghua, their fists and palms clashing, the energy roaring, each move carrying deadly force.

Fei Hong instantly entered battle mode, brandishing his long sword and charging towards Li Kui.

His aura, that of a mid-stage Transformation Realm expert, erupted forth, his blade flashing with deadly force: "Li Kui, you thought you were hiding well? Actually, you were discovered long ago!"

Li Kui was not afraid at all. He raised his hand to block, and his palm strike was powerful, colliding with Fei Hong's longsword.

With a crisp clang, sparks flew everywhere.

Li Kui's arms went numb from the shock, and he staggered backward.

Seeing this, Huang Yao immediately stepped forward to support him, thrusting her short sword straight at Fei Hong's side waist in an attempt to restrain Fei Hong's movements.

Chen Zhiyang, his rogue cultivator helpers, and Chen Chaoming's brother-in-law also sought out their rivals.

Chen Zhiyang faced off against the master of the Sun family martial arts school. Both were at the early stage of the Transformation Realm. Their punches landed hard, and their energy clashed, making it difficult to determine a winner.

The rogue cultivator, wielding a longsword, moved with agility as he faced off against the Li family patriarch.

His swordplay was fierce and relentless, but he was also restrained by the Li family patriarch's palm techniques, making it impossible for him to finish the fight quickly.

Chen Chaoming's brother-in-law stopped Huang Yao, and the two got into a fight.

Although Huang Yao was agile, her strength was slightly weaker, and she gradually fell into a disadvantageous position, only able to barely parry.

The battle between top-tier fighters has reached a fever pitch, and the melee between those with hidden and overt strength below is even more brutal.

Fei Hong's dozen or so skilled internal energy practitioners engaged in a duel with Chen Jinghua's team of skilled internal energy practitioners (including those from various martial arts schools and families).

One-on-one and many-on-one battles are commonplace.

His inner strength was contained, yet every move was deadly; a sweep of his palm could shatter the surrounding tables, chairs, and stones.

Some masters of internal strength were struck in the chest with a single palm strike, vomiting blood on the spot and collapsing to the ground.

Some fought to the death, covered in wounds, yet refused to retreat even a step, their eyes filled with ruthlessness.

The chaotic battle between Ming Jin and Ru Jin was even more of a mess.

The chaos quickly spread beyond the Chen family martial arts school, affecting the entire Zhenyuan County.

The fighting figures rushed out of the martial arts school courtyard and spread along Zhongjie Street.

Some experts, in the midst of a fierce battle, would flash their figures and leap onto the rooftop.

The roof tiles were shattered by the force of the blow and fell, causing the people on the street to scream and scatter in all directions.

Some of the fighting spilled over into the shops along the street, where doors and windows were shattered by the wind from the blades, and goods were scattered all over the ground.

The vendors cried out in despair, but were powerless to do anything but flee desperately to escape this undeserved disaster.

The bustling atmosphere of Zhongjie Street has long since disappeared, replaced by endless fighting and chaos.

The cries of children, the screams of civilians, and the shouts of soldiers mingled together.

The sounds of clashing weapons and collapsing houses mingled together, echoing throughout the entire county.

In the midst of some fierce battles, some masters accidentally knocked over street stalls, scattering candied hawthorns and sugar paintings all over the ground, stained red with blood.

Some chased and fought in the streets and alleys, their energies colliding and causing walls to crack and dust to fly.

Some of the masters of the Transformation Realm fought all the way to the city gate of the county, where the guards had already fled in terror.

The clash of their energies instantly shattered the wooden gate of the city, causing it to collapse to the ground with a crash.

The battlefield was completely dispersed, with fighting taking place everywhere.

There was no fixed formation, and no clear battlefield boundaries.

Wherever they went, that became a battlefield.

Fei Hong and Li Kui fought their way from the martial arts school courtyard to the rooftop of Zhongjie Street, and then from the rooftop to the restaurant on the street.

The second floor of the restaurant was destroyed by the combined force of the two men, with beams and planks falling off one after another.

Fei Hong slashed out with his longsword, the wind from the blade carrying a furious shout: "Li Kui, if you know what's good for you, surrender!"

Chen Jinghua is already at his last gasp; any further resistance from you will only result in your death!

Li Kui blocked the attack with a palm strike, which made his arm go numb, but his eyes remained fierce.

He retorted sharply: "Fei Hong, you are committing treason and will surely be punished by Heaven!"

I have received the Emperor's favor and hate traitors like you the most. Even if I die with you today, I will never submit to you, you rebellious scoundrel!

After exchanging dozens of blows, both were slightly out of breath and their breathing was somewhat disordered.

Fei Hong coldly retorted, "Stubborn to the end! Then don't blame me for being ruthless!"

On the other side, the fight between Chen Chaoming and Chen Jinghua even spread to the direction of the county government office.

The two men clashed fists and palms, creating a deafening roar that caused a large section of the county government's courtyard wall to collapse.

This caused the yamen runners inside the county government office to flee in panic, not daring to approach.

Chen Jinghua slapped Chen Chaoming in the chest and shouted angrily, "Chen Chaoming, you ruined my grand plan and killed my men."

Today I will tear you to pieces to vent my hatred!

Chen Chaoming dodged to the side, then slammed a punch into Chen Jinghua's shoulder, sneering, "Tear him to pieces? Chen Jinghua! You think you can turn the tables?"

Chen Jinghua was hit in the shoulder, and he groaned in pain, his eyes filled with even more murderous intent.

"The outcome is still uncertain! Even if it costs me my life, I'll drag you down with me!"
