Fortunately, they had been watching out for other fierce beasts when going into the water. As a result, each soldier was ready and picked up their weapons as soon as possible.

Without stopping them, the Crane Battalion in the air just let them do what they were doing. They had a captain and hundreds of soldiers. Judging from the number of soldiers and their fighting power, these two groups were not on the same level at all.

“Captain He, what does this mean?” Jiang Chen asked. He knew the captain’s name from Zhang Han. He was called He Wuhuan. He was a middle-aged man in his forties. He might have been somewhat handsome in his youth, but at the moment he was quite average-looking. Only his aura as a Star Venerable could win him any attention. As an eight-star strongman, he must be working on at least two qi to be a commander.

“Nothing. We detected there were strong fierce beasts here. So, we came here to see whether there was anything we could do to help,” He Wuhuan said.

“Thank you, but the problem has been solved. You can go back.”

Grinning, He Wuhuan said, “That’s really annoying. Why is a young man showing no respect to me at all?”

Then suddenly the situation between the two became extremely aggressive.

“Little jerk, you think you can have the spiritual stone? Give it to me. How can a newbie be so ignorant?”.

“What? Are you gonna rob us?” Zhang Han said in anger.

“Give the spiritual stone to me. The credit of finding the spiritual pond will still go to you. Otherwise, you could say I was cruel,” He Wuhuan said coldly.

“I’m curious how cruel you are,” Jiang Chen said with a cold smile.

“How pretentious. You think you can be so arrogant before me just because you can run amok among youngsters?” He Wuhuan suddenly took out a long bow. The bow was half of an adult’s height. It was made of metal, and carved with patterns of the universe, among which there was a doctrine pattern.

“Shadowless Bow. That’s his trump card!”

Zhang Han was shocked. He shouted loudly, “Captain He, do you want to kill people?!”

“Zhang Han, are you a dog? He defeated you once and now you are such a fan of his,” the captain of the Crane Battalion said in a sarcastic tone.

“What did you say?!” Zhang Han was really pissed. He admired Jiang Chen, but it did not mean he was not proud.

However, before the captain could speak, the sound of the pulling of bowstrings rang out. Everyone started to get nervous. They saw He Wuhuan had put a black arrow on the string and the bowstring had been pulled into the shape of a half-moon.

“Give me the spiritual stone. Otherwise you are putting yourself at great risk!” he warned Jiang Chen for the last time.

“His arrow is as quick as lightning. It’s very hard to dodge it,” Zhang Han said nervously.

“Don’t worry.” Very confident, Jiang Chen provoked, “Cut the crap. Shoot the arrow. Don’t make me despise you.”

Then the place went quiet.

Jiang Chen is definitely worthy of his name. This idea came into people’s minds.

“Interesting.”

He Wuhuan was struck dumb. Then a cruel smile pulled at the corners of his mouth. He released the fingers grasping the arrow without making much effort. The bowstring vibrated fiercely. The Shadowless Arrow flew out like a thunderbolt. It was really as quick as a shooting star. The naked eye could not follow its traces at all.

Jiang Chen flicked his fingers slightly. The Sky-burning Evil Flame turned into a swirl before him.

The Shadowless Arrow flew through the swirl of Alien Flam, not lingering for even a second.

However, as soon as He Wuhuan showed a sarcastic smile, the Shadowless Arrow before Jiang Chen started to turn to sand. And then it turned to ashes.

Siss!

He Wuhuan gulped. He was thinking, As quickly as the Shadowless Arrow traveled, it only took the Sky-burning Evil Flame less than half a second to burn it after the arrow flew through the swirling flames. The Sky-burning Evil Flame is really dreadful.

Reluctant to give up, he put three arrows on the string again. His arm muscles bulged. He pulled the bowstring back to its fullest extent. He shot the arrows again. Two of the arrows streaked toward Jiang Chen following a perfect curve from the left and the right sides to sandwich him. He Wuhuan’s archery was great indeed. This was an undeniable fact.

Jiang Chen smiled sarcastically. The blinking fire of thunder hit the three arrows and smashed them.

“Captain He, you’d better give up the thought that you can defeat me with your arrows,” Jiang Chen said.

“Damn it!” He Wuhuan was irritated. How would he lead his soldiers in the future after being embarrassed like this in their presence?

However, Jiang Chen was a master of the Alien Flame and an inheritor of thunder methods. As a result, He Wuhuan knew he should take Jiang Chen seriously.

“Divine Crane Battalion! Attack!”

He Wuhuan launched the most powerful attack he could launch to ensure his success.

Jiang Chen’s men turned extremely pale.

“Commander, we should run as soon as possible. He is gathering Soldier Energy!” a soldier shouted loudly. Soldier Energy was one of the reasons that the army was established in the Red Blood Field. They did not have tactical formations, but they had a substitute for tactical formations. A commander could become the god of war by gathering Soldier Energy. There was nothing he could not conquer. There was no victory he could not gain. Only commanders could manipulate Soldier Energy. Here, Soldier Energy was not an abstract concept. It was a real strength.

When He Wuhuan had given his order, hundreds of soldiers of the Crane Battalion moved in sync. A vast energy soared into the air, stirring the clouds and starting a wind.

Jiang Chen turned serious. 500 years ago, things like Soldier Energy did not exist at all. It seemed after the closure of the Sacred Zone and the loss of tactical formations of the Star Venerable level, human beings figured out a new way to replace them. But he could see the difference between Soldier Energy and tactical formations.

Soldier Energy was not used to endow all the troops with dreadful lethality. It was used to endow the commander with all of the strength of the troops.

He Wuhuan, an eight-star strongman, was as strong as a Martial Emperor after getting the Soldier Energy of hundreds of Star Venerables. He became extremely powerful.

No wonder the Tiger Battalion wanted to escape.

“Will you be stronger than us in the Tiger Battalion when Soldier Energy is in use? We’ll see about that when our commander arrives!”

He Wuhuan showed a mysterious smile when he had heard the voice. He pulled the bowstring again. This movement alone was enough to freeze people’s blood and put them in desperate fear. It was impossible to escape in such a situation.

To be more precise, it was Commander Jiang Chen, who had been targeted, who had no way to flee. Jiang Chen felt a strong sense of danger as soon as he was targeted by the arrow.

The eight groups of spiritual beings were waking up. The Azure Demon was anxious since he had sensed the danger too.

“Let the black dragon out. Let him jump on them.”

“No, you are good at attack instead of defense. You’ll all sink into a deep sleep if any of you gets shot by an arrow.”

Jiang Chen was still fearless. He took a step forward. “I’ll only warn you once. You shoot the arrows at your own risk,” Jiang Chen said.

“Ha, ha, ha, ha.” He Wuhuan burst out laughing. He said complacently, “So, you’re still ignorant of how powerful we are. Even a Martial Emperor will have to dodge my arrows when the Soldier Energy of the Divine Crane Battalion is activated.”

“Okay. So, bring it on.”

“Huh.” Seeing Jiang Chen’s fearless face, He Wuhuan hesitated, but his hesitation only lasted for a second. He shot again. The bowstring vibrated. Even the air was distorted by the arrow.

The Shadowless Arrow was even more dreadful this time. The arrow seemed to have a flying crane on its tip. Its speed was even faster. And there was an extra layer of silver light covering it.

“Die!”

He Wuhuan pulled the bowstring again without waiting for the result of the first arrow. He shot nine Shadowless Arrows in a row. It was done in one second.

“Nine Stars Aligned!”
