Chapter 116: The Four Elemental Flags Return

  On the surface, both sides are evenly matched, but in reality Zhang is already at a disadvantage.

  He was at the boundary of the initial threefold heaven, a full two small boundaries higher than Zhou Heng. If they were to fight on the same level, he would have been defeated long ago! Moreover, if he couldn't crush him with his strength, how could he possibly defeat Zhou Heng who grasped the momentum?

  Zhang Zaiyun's face turned iron-green, which was equivalent to slapping him hard in the face, burning with pain!

  "Hey, don't be so smug! The depth of Tian Xing Sect is not something you can imagine!" He glared at Zhou Heng fiercely, "You may have great strength and grasp the momentum, but there are other things that decide life and death!"

  Zhou Heng really didn't know where his resentment came from. Obviously, these two people took the initiative to provoke him, and they were angry that they hadn't killed themselves? Should he have been obediently killed by them?

  However, even if Liu Shengjie didn't provoke him, he still had no intention of letting this guy off.

  "Four Elemental Flags!" Zhang Zaiyuan shouted, and suddenly four flags emerged from behind him, each two feet long, divided into black, white, red, and green colors, extremely strange.

  "What's with the law enforcement?" Zhou Heng's eyes narrowed slightly.

  "Wrong, it's a forbidden device!" Zhang Zaiyun's face was filled with arrogance. "How could a disciple like me, who is the focus of our sect's cultivation, not have any defensive tools? This is a forbidden device created by a strong practitioner in the Open Heaven realm, and it can only be used once, but it's enough to wipe out an existence at the initial stage of the division with just one move!"

  "No matter how strong your combat power is, can you compare with me in terms of foundation?"

  Zhou Heng smiled faintly and said, "Let's see what use these few ghost flags have!"

  "You will see!" Zhang Yan shouted sternly, "I can take out the Four Yuan Gui Sha flag to suppress and kill you, you should feel honored!"

  "The cowhide is about to burst into the sky, hurry up and take action!" Zhou Heng was eager to try, it was his first time hearing about the forbidden device.

  "See how long you can still be stubborn!" Zhang Zaiyun shouted loudly, "Green Killer Flag, rise!"

  Whoosh, the green flag behind him suddenly soared into the air, as if an invisible hand was controlling it, fluttering and dancing. "Kill!" He pointed at Zhou Heng, and instantly, the green flag shot towards Zhou Heng.

  A terrifying power sweeps across, as if a strong cultivator of the realm has arrived, crushing everything!

  "Die!" Liu Shengjie shouted excitedly on the side, this was an attack of the Splitting Earth Realm, even if Princess Water Moon didn't take out a corresponding treasure, she couldn't block it.

  Boom!

  The green flag fell, and just as it was about to touch Zhou Heng's face, several people saw a flash before their eyes, and then the flag disappeared!

  "How is this possible!" Zhang Ziyun's face changed greatly, these four yuan gui flags were given by his master, but not made by his master, they came from the Kai Tian Jing Lao Zu of the sect, and were sought after by his master for him.

  Although the Four-sided Flag can only be used four times, each strike can exert a power of the Earth-shattering level, enough to kill four initial-stage strongmen. Coupled with his own initial threefold heaven, he is almost invincible here!

  Just now, he lost his spiritual connection with the Green Death Flag, as if this forbidden device had vanished into thin air.

  Even if Zhou Heng hadn't died under the suppression of the Green Fiend Flag, he wouldn't have been so shocked. But to disappear silently and without a trace was completely beyond his comprehension, leaving him stunned and dazed.

  Zhou Heng revealed a smile, just now he summoned the Jiuxuan Trial Tower and opened the tower gate wide, directly swallowing the Green Slaughter Flag inside!

  He indeed cannot bring something with rebellious consciousness wrapped in the Divine Sense Scroll into the Treasure Tower, but if the other party insists on rushing in, that would be jumping into the net voluntarily. His divine sense swept over and only "saw" the Green Fiend Flag quietly lying on the stone brick of the first layer of the tower.

  "It seems like your secret weapon has lost its magic!" Zhou Heng shrugged and shook his head on purpose, sighing, "Looks like you've been cheated by your master, bringing out this trash to fool you!"

  Zhang Zaiyou was both angry and anxious, but he had just been confidently boasting about his family's background. Now the Green Killer Flag had been mysteriously taken away, leaving him bewildered and suspicious!

  "I don't believe you still have such a trick!" He shouted sternly, if he could withstand the forbidden device made by the Open Heaven realm expert, then Zhou Heng's treasure that took away the Green Slaughter Flag must be of the same level!

  It's settled then, it must be An Luo dusting him off!

  But An Luo has just entered the Open Heaven Realm, how many of these seals can he make? One? Two? That's the limit!

  Compared with Tianxing Sect's foundation, it is far inferior!

  "Hei Sha Qi, rise!" Zhang Zaiyun shouted again, and the black flag behind him immediately flew up, then swooshed past Zhou Heng at an incredible speed.

  The old trick was repeated, and at the moment when the Black Fiend Flag struck, Zhou Heng took out the Nine Profound Trial Tower. The tower door opened wide, inviting you to enter.

  Everything was just as it had been before, empty and quiet to the point of being terrifying.

  Zhou Heng intentionally furrowed his brow, then revealed a hint of joy.

  Zhang Zaiyun's eyes widened, and he vaguely caught a glimpse of a shadowy figure, but what it was exactly, he didn't quite see clearly, as it disappeared too quickly! However, he also saw Zhou Heng's changing expression, from worry to joy?

  Hmph, got it!

  His seal may look like a fish net, capable of dispelling others' seals, but there aren't many, and he must have used them all up, which is why he's showing a worried expression, yet afraid to reveal himself, so he intentionally uses a joyful expression to cover it up!

  Do you think you can easily deceive him with your little tricks just because he is a three-year-old child?

  Not bad, An Luo Dun just broke through the Open Heaven Realm, where did he get so much time and materials to make a forbidden device? This isn't something you can just take an object, infuse it with spiritual energy and be done with, the process is extremely complicated!

  Two forbidden devices, supporting the sky! This also conforms to his previous speculation.

  "Zhou Heng, you should be proud that I used the Three-Faced Four-Yuan Gui Sha Flag on someone as despicable as you!" Zhang Zaiyun regained his original arrogant demeanor. He looked down on Zhou Heng with disdain, thinking to himself: "Isn't he just clinging to the leg of a strong Open Heaven cultivator?"

  Small-minded people have achieved their goals!

  "Kill!" He shouted again, "White Killer Flag, rise!"

  Whoosh! The third flag soared into the air and struck Zhou Heng with a loud crash.

  Zhou Heng couldn't help but smile in his heart, this idiot had taken the bait! He had intended to collect these four banners all along, and as long as he could defeat Zhang Yun, they would become ownerless objects that he could then refine.

  He feared that Zhang would not use the Four Slashing Return to Origin Banner, but instead directly self-destruct, which is why he made a plan to let the opponent see a glimmer of hope for victory.

  The white flag flew over, and Zhou Heng took it back again.

  "Zhou Heng, you, you, you - deceived me!" Zhang Zaiyun was able to cultivate up to the first level of the Three Realms before the age of 50, and he must have been extremely intelligent. However, he had no idea that the Nine Mysteries Trial Tower possessed such immense power, which is why he fell for Zhou Heng's trick. But this was not going to happen three times; if he still didn't react now, then he would truly be foolish.

  "Wow, I was just casually trying it out, didn't expect you to be so gullible!" Zhou Heng smiled slightly and intentionally shrugged his shoulders.

  Lin Fengxiang and An Yumei burst out laughing, while Gu Zi remained the same as ever, with a calm expression.

  Zhang Zaiyun took a few rapid breaths, forcing himself to calm down, and said: "We admit defeat! Return the Four Elemental Flags to me, and we'll leave immediately!"

  Zhou Heng was taken aback for a moment, and then couldn't help but burst out laughing. "Your nerve is really something," he said. "What makes you think I should return the item to you?"

  "Just because I'm a disciple of the Tianxing Sect!" Zhang Zaiyun puffed out his chest, "No matter if it's you or An Luo Chen behind you, in front of the Tianxing Sect, you're just trash! Offending the Tianxing Sect, anyone will only have the fate of being destroyed!"

  "Should I pretend to be afraid just to satisfy your vanity?" Zhou Heng's expression turned cold, "Since you've said so much, why don't I just get rid of all of you!"

  "Haha, I admit that your strength is almost on par with mine, and you've even grasped the momentum, making your combat power formidable! But I think I'll run away, can you catch up to me?" Zhang Zai had been boastfully saying he wanted to kill people and steal treasures earlier, but now he was actually proud of his ability to escape, completely unaware of what shamelessness meant.

  Zhou Heng couldn't help but laugh, comparing speed with him? With Xun Yun's Flowing Light Steps operating at full power, even a cultivator in the Splitting Heaven Realm wouldn't be qualified to compare speeds with him, let alone an Initial Division cultivator!

  So-called top sect disciples are really shameless, when they're strong, they use violence to bully people, and when they hit a brick wall, they'll bring out their sect from behind to pressure people, this way they won't lose either!

  "Shameless!" Lin Xiangxiang said with a sarcastic tone, making a face on the side, her pretty face was vivid and radiant, but unfortunately Zhang Zaiyun and Liu Shengjie were both unappreciative.

  Zhou Heng pointed at Liu Shengjie and said: "You can run away from this, but I won't care about this younger brother?"

  Liu Shengjie's face suddenly turned white, his fists clenched tightly. Just a few months ago, Zhou Heng was just slightly stronger than an ant, but he didn't expect that after thirty years of ups and downs, he would be ridden roughshod over by the other party in such a short time!

  His life was literally in Zhou Heng's hands, Gu Zi stared at him tightly and wouldn't give him any chance to escape.

  "You don't dare!" Zhang Zaiyun said confidently, "If you dare to touch a single hair on my cousin's head, it's equivalent to provoking the Tianxing Sect. Think about it yourself, whether you can afford to offend the number one sect of Hansheng Country!"

  Whoosh! A figure flashed by, a black sword appeared out of thin air, and immediately bright red blood splattered everywhere, an arm thudded to the ground.

  "Ah——" It wasn't until then that Liu Shengjie let out a blood-curdling scream, staring incredulously at his empty right shoulder, then looking down at the familiar arm on the ground, feeling an intense pain, and screaming again and again.

  If it were outside, he would immediately reattach his severed arm and use spiritual medicine to aid in the healing process. But here? Forget about it!

  "You, you, you!" Zhang Zaiyun pointed at Zhou Heng, his whole body trembling. Zhou Heng didn't move a single hair now, and even had an arm chopped off!

  Madman, don't you even care about the threat of the Tianxing Sect?

  Zhou Heng slightly shook the black sword in his hand, and a killing intent floated in his eyes: "Liu Shengjie, let's settle old scores first!"

  With a brush of his sword, Liu Shengjie's left arm also flew off his body.

  In front of Zhou Heng's mastery of momentum, combined with Hei Jian's sharpness, Liu Shengjie was completely unstoppable!
