Fang Lin Kong executed a swift move, retracting all his magical artifacts and immediately escaping from Yan Jiangnan's Battle Barrier.
However, Yan Jiangnan, being the creator of this Battle Barrier, first used his authority to kick Erna Zroma out of it. Then, he simply abandoned flight and directly shifted spaces using the Five Elements Great Shift, disappearing without a trace.
Fang Lin Kong was capable of instant spatial movement spells, but he dared not use them. The stability of space was extremely poor in this harsh environment, and bringing an ordinary person who had not undergone training along could lead to unpredictable problems. Fang Lin Kong was not willing to take risks with Ding Qingya.
When Erna Zroma noticed that both targets intended to flee, she wasted no time and pursued the clearly visible Fang Lin Kong. Fang Lin Kong silently lamented, thinking, "Where did this crazy woman come from? Does she intend to start a battle in a densely populated urban area?"
Both monsters and cultivators acknowledged the right to survival for ordinary people. No matter how reckless someone might be, they would only secretly kill a few individuals for pleasure; very few dared to openly flaunt their power and act recklessly on the streets.
However, Erna Zroma had no such concerns. On her home planet, she never regarded other beings as her equals; killing was completely outside her considerations in combat.
Fang Lin Kong flew through the air, hoping to shake off Erna Zroma with speed. But when Erna Zroma ascended into the air, he realized he was mistaken. As a member of the Divine Charm Clan, capable of escaping planetary gravity and breaking free from atmospheric constraints, her speed surpassed any flying spell on Earth.
In the blink of an eye, Erna Zroma had caught up with the already moving Fang Lin Kong. Energy orbs exploded almost continuously outside Fang Lin Kong's defensive shield. He was in despair; such an enemy was the hardest to deal with. He could only rely on the terrain to evade Erna Zroma's pursuit among the tall buildings.
Humans on Earth referred to a speed of 7,900 meters per second as "the first cosmic velocity." This was the minimum speed required to escape Earth's gravity, equivalent to twenty-three times the speed of sound. On Erna Zroma's planet, due to slightly lower gravity than Earth, this escape velocity was correspondingly reduced. Her maximum speed could reach seventeen times the speed of sound, making her nearly unmatched on Earth. If Wu Dong Shen or Yuan Qian Kun were present, they might have been able to compete with her; however, Fang Lin Kong stood no chance.
Yuan Qian Kun could reach four times the speed of sound purely through physical prowess; if he used spells for flight, it would be several times higher. Fang Lin Kong could achieve one times the speed of sound with his legs and five times if using Teleportation spells—though that was already his limit. Fortunately for him, Erna Zroma's abilities had not fully recovered and she was unaccustomed to Earth's environment; she could only reach about sixty percent of her peak speed. Yet that was still enough to keep Fang Lin Kong under pressure.
In battle, speed often became a decisive factor!
"Why is this fierce woman so fast?"
Feeling unable to escape from Erna Zroma's pursuit, Fang Lin Kong hurriedly descended, shattering a window and diving into a towering office building. Fortunately, it was late at night, and there were no employees working overtime inside. Fang Lin Kong had no time to look for an exit and crashed through several walls, quickly hiding himself.
Erna Zroma floated in, her attire billowing around her, and her crystal-like armor radiated a pure, gentle light. She gazed at the shattered window and slowly drifted inside.
Suddenly, a heavy safe sprang to life as if possessed, crashing down towards Erna Zroma.
With an elegant lift of her arm, Erna Zroma's beautiful face remained calm as she punched the safe, shattering it with the force of Fang Lin Kong's intense energy. However, in that instant, she lost track of Fang Lin Kong's presence. Erna Zroma finally realized how different this planet was from the one she had grown up on.
"Every creature here is cunning and cruel! They have no sense of hierarchy and are recklessly bold... and they all look so ugly!"
During her training as a warrior among her people, Erna Zroma had endured extremely rigorous exercises. After the battle began, she could calmly assess the situation, consider the comparative abilities of herself and her enemies, and devise strategies.
Fang Lin Kong chose to evade confrontation, prompting Erna Zroma to quickly formulate a countermeasure.
The sky was filled with colorful paper scraps swirling beautifully; if it were daytime, it would surely attract crowds eager to snatch up money!
With a slender finger, Li Bing casually poked at the air, catching a bill on his fingertip. He watched indifferently as the dilapidated building nearby suffered another shattered window. The plastic frame was violently shattered into pieces the size of soybeans, while the glass that had been embedded in it broke into even smaller fragments.
"What happened to Fang Lin Kong? He just faced a direct challenge and is now being inexplicably hunted down. It seems he's having a rough year!"
Li Bing showed no intention of helping; he was merely passing through to escort a female classmate home. It was purely coincidental!
A massive boss desk was hurled through the air by an irresistible force, landing directly above Li Bing's head. He remained motionless as the desk whistled down towards him. Just as it was about to crash into him, a brilliant icy force erupted from within Li Bing's body, creating an invisible barrier that halted the desk's descent and instantly froze the valuable wooden piece.
Kara automatically dodged to the side, narrowly avoiding Li Bing, and crashed onto the Boss table, which instantly shattered into pieces. The force of the fall was fully exerted on the table itself.
"What a powerful monster!"
Sensing the battle aura of Fang Lin Kong and Erna Zroma, Lu Gan rushed over. Upon seeing Li Bing make her move, he couldn't help but click his tongue in admiration, feeling three parts fear and seven parts awe.
"If only I could have such skills, I could become someone who attracts attention no matter what I do!" Lu Gan thought to himself.
Throughout the city, nearly all cultivators and monsters were making their way toward this location. The energy fluctuations from Erna Zroma were simply too strong; in the Spiritual Awareness of these non-humans, her position shone like a sun radiating infinite heat in the dead of night.
Bang!
Fang Lin Kong was forced to exchange blows with Erna Zroma, who had somehow tracked him down. Fortunately, he had already sent Ding Qingya to a safe location. Otherwise, she would surely be caught in the crossfire. To conceal his whereabouts, Fang Lin Kong had to retract his protective shield, but he still couldn't escape Erna Zroma's perception.
Rolling behind another wall, Fang Lin Kong used his body to create a hole. He had managed to dissipate most of Erna Zroma's punch, but the remaining force still hit him hard.
"This damn woman is incredibly strong! I really need to work on improving my physical condition," Fang Lin Kong thought as he suppressed the frustration in his chest. With a swift motion, he unleashed a brilliant beam of light that blocked Erna Zroma's pursuit before disappearing back into the shadows.
Erna Zroma was already feeling irritated as she deflected Fang Lin Kong's Flying Sword. He was becoming increasingly elusive, and every time she cornered him, he would use an array of magical artifacts to obstruct her before making a quick escape.
"Our Divine Charm Clan has no room for cowards who flee without fighting! This cunning man on this planet is infuriating..." As Erna Zroma spoke these words, she had forgotten how she had fled in disarray when pursued by Zhou Qingzhe and Zhang Rongying. Growing impatient with this game of hide-and-seek, she made a strange gesture with her hands at her chest. A mass of condensed energy began to overflow from her chest.
Erna Zroma drew out a three-meter-long spear; it was completely transparent with swirling mist-like energy within its shaft. Its crystal-like texture made one question whether it could withstand intense combat.
"Swish!"
Erna Zroma swung her spear, unleashing an incredibly fierce destructive force from the weapon. The building that served as the battlefield with Fang Lin Kong seemed to come alive; every brick, every steel beam, and every crack in the concrete joyfully detached from its original position, floating in mid-air and dancing like sprites.
The monsters watching from the outskirts of the battlefield realized the situation was dire and began to flee for their lives. Once they reached a safe distance, they could finally discern the levels of cultivation among them. Li Bing remained steadfastly close to the battle, not moving an inch. Zhu Xiaotian had only narrowly avoided the main area affected by the building's collapse, with a few scattered stones posing no threat to him.
Next were the six leaders of the Chifeng Legion. Ding Chihong stood slightly farther away than Zhu Xiaotian, but his calm demeanor suggested he was more at ease.
Erna Zroma had completely destroyed the building, leaving Fang Lin Kong feeling regretful. After fighting for so long, he had noticed that the interior of the building was lavishly equipped and furnished with advanced office technology, clearly indicating it had cost a fortune. With nowhere to hide, Fang Lin Kong floated alone in mid-air.
With her spear in hand, Erna Zroma felt uncertain about how to proceed. She truly wanted to absorb Fang Lin Kong's power, but continuing the fight would likely result in casualties. "To save my sisters! I have no choice but to fight!"
Upon reaching adulthood, members of the Divine Charm Clan could form a weapon within themselves, akin to pearls secreted by oysters. The weapon nurtured within them was considered a vital part of their existence, much like a bee's stinger that cannot be lost. Depending on personal preferences and different cultivation methods, weapons formed within members of the Divine Charm Clan could take on various forms. Erna Zroma's weapon was the Crystal War Spear.
"It seems I have no choice but to show my true abilities!"
As Erna Zroma radiated silver light, Fang Lin Kong revealed a shotgun that was about the length of his arm. This was his Psycho Gun, purchased at the Grand Auction House in England, valued at an impressive one hundred fifty thousand euros based solely on its power. He fired a shot aimed at dealing with his fast-moving opponent while maintaining distance.
Every time Erna Zroma attempted to close in on Fang Lin Kong, she was met with a barrage of gunfire that forced her back. The shotgun's immense power was compounded by specially designed ammunition that exploded into a cloud upon firing. Fang Lin Kong used corrosive acid rounds; once they struck their target, they would create thick fog that eroded the enemy's body.
After battling for some time, Fang Lin Kong realized that Erna Zroma did not utilize any defensive shields. Confirming his strategic advantage, he pressed on. Once his shotgun ran out of ammunition, he quickly switched to a long-range sniper rifle. Although this weapon had less power than his shotgun, its penetration ability, firing speed, and range far surpassed that of the shotgun; Erna Zroma had no choice but to keep her distance. The Crystal War Spear in her hands glimmered as she continuously deflected the bullets fired by Fang Lin Kong.
Unfamiliar with firearms due to her upbringing on a planet where thermal weapons had yet to be developed within the Divine Charm Clan, Erna Zroma found herself struggling with this combat style. As she began to adapt to Fang Lin Kong's precise shooting, she decided to charge toward him despite taking a few hits. By then, Fang Lin Kong had switched to his most exhilarating submachine gun. Spiritual Energy Bullets poured forth like water; these frenzied projectiles either caused powerful explosions or unleashed strange invasive energies or scorching heat...
As Erna Zroma faced such a wild attack, she surprisingly calmed down. The rigorous training of the Divine Charm Clan warriors came into play at that moment. The Crystal War Spear in her hand trembled slightly, unleashing a flurry of thrusts. The faint silver light at the spear's tip sparkled like stars in the midnight sky—beautiful yet dangerous!
Fang Lin Kong finally satisfied his craving and set down his Psycho Gun. The previous round of attacks had consumed Spiritual Energy Bullets worth at least ten thousand dollars. He wasn't so extravagant as to waste them, feeling a bit reluctant inside.
"If your skills end here, then prepare to meet your end!" Erna Zroma shouted, ready to close the distance for an attack. This time, Fang Lin Kong did not employ any tactics to block her; instead, he shouted back at the top of his lungs, "You crazy woman! What grudge do we have that makes you want to kill me? Did someone insult you on the forums? Just so you know, someone impersonated me and misused my account!"
Now it was Erna Zroma's turn to be taken aback. She awkwardly replied, "What do you mean by forums? I’ve never insulted you!"
Hearing this, Fang Lin Kong felt a surge of annoyance and quickly asked, "So are you a killer sent by Zhou Qingzhe or Zhang Rongying from the International Demon Alliance? Or are you a mercenary hired by the Tartarus clan?"
Erna Zroma shook her head apologetically and said, "I have no connections with anyone on this planet! I don’t even know those people you mentioned. I just want to kill you, so here I am!"
"Damn! So it's just because you find me unpleasant."
Fang Lin Kong was now at a loss for what to do. The multicolored light around him flickered again; this time he activated his shield with all his might, condensing at least ten layers of powerful defense around him.
"Since there's nothing left to discuss, come and try to kill me! Let's see who can take down whom!"
Fang Lin Kong became truly serious, his aura surging wildly. Erna Zroma suddenly lost her confidence in victory. After chasing Fang Lin Kong for so long, she had always thought he was weaker than herself. However, after this prolonged battle, she finally realized that while Fang Lin Kong might not match her in combat power, she was not at her full capacity either. Continuing this fight could lead to an uncertain outcome for both of them.
