Bang!

Although Fang Zhen noticed the stone thrown by Lucis and wanted to dodge immediately, he found the stone's speed was too fast. In the blink of an eye, it was about to reach him. He could only use all his power, using his B2 level long spear to block in front of him.

Reversed Star Hand!

With the boost of quadruple strength, the long spear collided with the stone.

Boom!

The B2 level long spear bent directly, the stone turned to dust, and Fang Zhen was sent flying more than thirty meters as if hit by a cannonball. His arms twisted beyond recognition, and the intense power impact made Fang Zhen feel as if all the bones in his body were shattered.

"The Bone Forging Realm BOSS is truly powerful. A stone casually thrown can take my life." Fang Zhen looked at Lucis, who no longer paid him attention and had already begun killing other monsters, and he involuntarily smiled, "But it was worth taking a hit. It's a pity I didn't stream it live, or this battle would definitely have skyrocketed my popularity to the top."

Two people managing to conquer a high-level outdoor instance would definitely make outsiders go crazy with envy.

Then Fang Zhen didn't idle around anymore, quickly ending his heavily injured self, intending to resurrect quickly and start another wave of luring monsters soon.

This time he was quite lucky, encountering a group of high-tier monsters in a lotus pond. Without a word, he threw a stone over and then used the Reverse Star Step to charge over. Fortunately, those high-tier monsters were slow, and under his continuous Reverse Star Steps, he barely managed to make it here.

With this group of high-tier monsters, plus a large number of middle-tier monsters, Ten Thousand Stars City's Defense Corps certainly wouldn't be able to finish the battle in a short time. During the time they take to resurrect and return, there's a full opportunity to lure more monsters to join the battle.

Everything happened just as Fang Zhen guessed. Nearly twenty high-tier monsters surrounded Lucis. Even though Lucis was also a martial artist in the Bone Forging Realm, he was only at its initial stage. Handling a few at a time might be quick, but dealing with over ten high-tier monsters at once was quite a headache, leaving Lucis unable to assist others, and both sides' battle stalemated completely.

It was not until Xiao Yuan Ye Feng Kuang was revived and lured another wave of monsters that the battle in Death Valley hadn't ended. On the mountain, a large number of miners were used as bait by the Defense Corps to divert the monsters' attention and relieve pressure. After these miners died, another wave was sent out.

By now, over a hundred members of the Defense Corps were still alive, but seven or eight out of ten miners sent for mining were dead. Conversely, the massive number of gathered monsters were mostly cleared by Ten Thousand Stars City's Defense Corps, and Lucis alone took down ten high-tier monsters. The remaining high-tier monsters suffered significant injuries, and Lucis himself was somewhat ragged, clearly greatly exhausted, yet clearing out all monsters posed no issue.

The people of Ten Thousand Stars City saw victory at hand.

During the battle, Lucis and others saw a person in silver-gray attire rushing down the mountain, turning their faces ashen, and ordinary members and miners felt despair.

"Why are these Black Obsidian Martial Arts Hall lunatics here again?"

"They'd rather give up their lives than take ours! Are they demons?"

Upon seeing the huge commotion not far behind Xiao Yuan Ye Feng Kuang, everyone realized it was another wave of a suicidal charge by Black Obsidian Martial Arts Hall members.

Even Lucis felt some regret at this moment. Why had he bothered to kill those two Black Obsidian Hall martial artists instead of just driving them away? Otherwise, he wouldn't have attracted these crazies.

Yet, the deed was done, and Lucis knew regret was futile. He killed Xiao Yuan Ye Feng Kuang with another stone and ordered everyone to retreat.

As a Bone Forging Realm martial artist, he could still withstand, but his team couldn't. If another two to three hundred monsters came, besides him and the captains, no one would survive.

And just as Lucis ordered the retreat, the distant forest collapsed in patches, and a gigantic two-headed tiger nearly twenty meters tall landed at the mountain's foot in Death Valley. Its sudden appearance stunned everyone, including Lucis.

Intermediate Lord Level Monster Two-headed Blood Flame Tiger!

"Why is there an Intermediate Lord here?"

"Is it attracted by the blood of countless monsters?"

"It's over! We're all done for!"

Everyone present, seeing the Two-headed Blood Flame Tiger's four fiery eyes, understood they were doomed.

Facing an intermediate lord level monster, even martial artists at the middle stage of Bone Forging Realm couldn't resist—only high-tier ones could put up a fight. With the Two-headed Blood Flame Tiger appearing, there was no chance of survival.

"Run!"

Seeing the Two-headed Blood Flame Tiger, Lucis didn't hesitate to turn and leap away like a cannonball, fleeing in the opposite direction.

Roar!

The Two-headed Blood Flame Tiger opened its mouth, spitting out an enormous fireball. Covering a kilometer in just one second, it reached Lucis.

Faced with a mountain-sized fireball, Lucis dared not delay, holding a blue bone spear, he thrust with full force.

High-tier Martial Artist Level martial arts—Rainbow Transformation!

The blue spear light collided with the fireball. The fireball got pierced by the blue bone spear, scattering sparks. But before Lucis could rejoice, another fireball appeared before him, blasting Lucis to the ground, creating a pit over ten meters deep. Lucis' bone armor was heavily damaged, scorched black in parts, and he coughed up blood, clearly heavily injured.

As Lucis tried to get up, the Two-headed Blood Flame Tiger loomed before him, slashing down with a paw.

Boom!

The pit, initially ten meters deep, expanded by two more circles under the Two-headed Blood Flame Tiger's claw. Lucis's bone armor shattered completely, turning Lucis himself into a pulp.

When Fang Zhen led another wave of monsters to Death Valley, he was dumbfounded.

Not only because Ten Thousand Stars City's Defense Corps was wiped out, changing Death Valley's terrain into a land of craters and scorch marks, but also the scene of many broken monster corpses transformed the entire valley into what seemed like a sea of blood, with no living creature present.

Looking at the corpses of the Sub-demon Race and the numerous broken monsters, Fang Zhen's heart couldn't calm down for a long while.

But after a brief period of surprise and shock, all Fang Zhen felt was joy.

All these corpses represented drops from high-level outdoor instances, especially the B4 level and above battle armor the Ten Thousand Stars City NPCs wore. Currently, they were weapons and equipment a version ahead, now entirely belonging to him and Xiao Yuan Ye Feng Kuang.

After shaking off the lured monsters, Fang Zhen immediately logged off to notify Xiao Yuan Ye Feng Kuang not to lure monsters anymore and to drive a large transport from Red Moon Mountain to collect the instance loot.

By the following morning, Fang Zhen and Xiao Yuan Ye Feng Kuang returned to the Black Obsidian Martial Arts Hall with the large transport. However, as they arrived back at the hall, Ten Thousand Stars City received shocking news.

The defense team led by Lucis, including Lucis himself, was entirely killed in Death Valley, suspected to have had a large-scale confrontation with Black Obsidian Martial Arts Hall!
