Chapter 347: Showdown in the Void

After Zhang Fan returned to the Easy Alliance, Huo Ran was a little surprised when he looked at Zhang Fan more carefully. At this time, Huo Ran seemed to be able to feel that although he still had a way to know what Zhang Fan was thinking at this time, it didn't seem to be too sure to do it without Zhang Fan being able to detect it. Compared with a top-level genius powerhouse like himself who has been in the Dao Ancestor realm for tens of thousands of years, today's Zhang Fan has actually improved to a quite good situation in just a few days after breaking through the Dao Ancestor realm.

It seems to retain the previous habit of not having too much nonsense, and when he saw Zhang Fan here, Huo Ran didn't have too much nonsense, but he still asked more politely than before: "As far as the threat and aura I can feel are concerned, now you estimate that you already have about the eighth layer of cultivation in the Dao Ancestor realm, and in some aspects your strengths are even stronger than those of the ordinary eighth-layer realm." But now you may be quite clear about your shortcomings, so I won't beat around the bush here. I will tell you through some actual battles in the virtual fantasy world, and some of my knowledge and experiences in the Dao Ancestor realm for tens of thousands of years, and even on the battlefield outside the realm, will also allow you to encounter all kinds of opponents through simulation methods. Only after you have rich experience in the battle of the Dao Ancestor realm, maybe you can really bring out the power of the Dao Ancestor Eight-Layer Realm at this moment... ”

When he said this, Zhang Fan suddenly felt that everything around him had changed, and he seemed to have come to a place that seemed to be somewhat familiar, which was the former Da Luo Peak Martial Arts Competition Ring in the Central Domain. A monk he was somewhat familiar with walked over with a smile on his face, it was none other than Li Yi, the Heavenly Court monk he had once seen.

If there was no back door for all this, it seemed that it would take a lot of effort for Zhang Fan to see through it at this time, but Huo Ran did not try to make Zhang Fan not realize that all this was an illusion at this time. Although Li Yi looked like a living person, he gave Zhang Fan the feeling of a puppet at this moment.

Zhang Fan at this time is actually not surprising. Teaching many disciples of the Heavenly Dao Gang in the storage space, and even had such an experience when they practiced before. If learning efficiency is the first priority, then the actual practice of a complete state of selflessness is essential, but it is not the most time-saving method. The most time-saving teaching method, just like ordinary mortal combat training, is also essential.

"Li Yi, a Heavenly Court monk, is actually a typical Dao Ancestor realm monk in the Immortal Continent. Based on the way of space, illusion and stealth, plus some laws of thunder. Don't you think it's strange that the same is true of the dragon god you met before? In fact, when you really reach the realm of Dao Ancestor, the difference in the means of various races and factions at a certain level is not so obvious. Of course, there are some offensive and defensive magic weapons, and there are a few that cultivate mental skills and even ghost paths to a considerable extent, you have to be careful... When Huo Ran's voice said this, Li Yi's figure slowly dissipated in the air.

"Li Yi is a monk of the same level as you, and of course he is very good at many aspects of your expertise. For example, the invisibility technique after shrinking the body, and countless incarnations. Presumably, you've gained a lot of experience when you've practiced with yourself. But I perceive that some of your experiences are wrong ... ”

In the illusion, Li Yi transformed into countless figures and existed in all directions, but it seemed that he couldn't hide the warning heart that Zhang Fan had at this time, and he was quickly locked in the direction. Although Zhang Fan listened to the explanation, he only knew that this was not actual combat confrontation training, but he still launched a fierce attack step by step.

At this time, a tiny point on the position of his attack target suddenly zoomed in, and the true image of Li Yi's entire figure appeared, and gradually, Li Yi's figure seemed to be a little blurred, and it became a very simple three-dimensional human target.

"The monks of the Dao Ancestor realm are not exactly the same as the monks of the realm below the Immortal Realm Continent. Your previous method of attack was wrong. For ordinary Da Luo or Da Luo Peak Outer Monks, the position on the left and right of the Mud Pill Palace in the center of the eyebrows is its vital point, and most of the other parts are foreign objects that cannot cause real heavy damage. However, the cultivators of the Dao Ancestor Realm are different, its soul power is fused with the energy in the entire Dao body, and it will be half the effort if you attack the location of its Mud Pill Palace by breaking, collapsing, or exploding as you did in the past. If you don't know anything about the nature of the opponent, who is an unfamiliar opponent and has a good chance of causing you a lot of trouble, then your best bet is to launch a collapse attack that is evenly distributed and concentrated in a small area where the entire part of the body is located. If you have enough conditions, you need to perform the collapse attack in the trapping technique... ”

When explaining this, Zhang Fan also seemed to be aware of many things. In particular, when he thought back to some of his past cultivation and techniques, compared with the exercises of the ordinary immortal realm and even the boundless continent plane, he was often known for his simple, direct and efficient exercises, but he seemed to have obviously not studied enough in terms of trapping techniques.

At this moment, Huo Ran did not hesitate to show some of the Dao Ancestor realm's trapped spells in this virtual illusion. There is no text in the Dao Ancestor realm's martial arts code, and there is no special text for the immortal realm exercises that express a very wide range of meanings, and it takes Zhang Fan's selfless state to have some unique memories as if he was possessed in order to truly understand, but this method also obviously minimizes the error and enhances the actual effect.

At the same time, starting from Li Yi, a master of the Dao Ancestor realm that Zhang Fan had seen, in the subsequent perception of Zhang Fan for about a hundred years, Zhang Fan accumulated thousands of monks of the same school, tens of thousands of exercises and magic weapons, and hundreds of formations one by one through the method of selfless confrontation after decomposition. And it also leaves time for myself to think and even sublimate.

In such a situation, in less than two Jiazi, Zhang Fan seemed to be like a true Dao Ancestor realm powerhouse who had experienced thousands of battles and had extensive knowledge. At this time, Zhang Fan relied on his unique calculation and even analysis ability to roughly infer that if he at this time compared with when he had just returned to the Easy Alliance, although it was impossible to increase the combat effectiveness of a single body by dozens of times or increase it by a large level by virtue of his rich experience, an increase of about half a level also existed. At this time, Zhang Fan could be sure that Huo Ran, who knew him very well, was the ninth layer master of the Dao Ancestor Realm who met other ninth-level masters of the Dao Ancestor Realm at the same level as Huo Ran, and he at least had the ability to escape in a non-passive environment. In the past hundred years of senses, Zhang Fan has not only enriched his knowledge and experience, but also greatly improved his escape, trapping techniques, and even more advanced mental attack and illusion attack and defense.

Zhang Fan, who is not stupid, actually realized that Huo Ran was so full and efficient that he could improve his combat effectiveness, and he might soon have to take action. And it doesn't have to take a hundred years or so to waste. It is likely that the sensory time of more than 100 years may not be very long.

As Zhang Fan expected, it also exceeded Zhang Fan's expectations. When all this was over, Zhang Fan didn't expect that the more than a hundred years of make-up cultivation had actually passed in the real Immortal Realm Continent, and about a year had passed.

Huo Ran didn't spy on Zhang Fan's mind as often as before, but at this time, he was also tacitly aware of Zhang Fan's mind at this time in many things.

"Are we going to leave now?" Zhang Fan asked at this time, not minding.

"Of course, now that I have settled Yin Xia and even many people in the Xiaoyao Alliance, I think there should be no big problem. In this expedition, the monks below the realm of Dao Ancestor are a burden, so there are only you and me. The people in your storage space try not to release even when they're dealing with weaker opponents, you know?"

"Of course I understand ... ”

In this way, Huo Ran and Zhang Fan embarked on the journey to the Central Region together. It seems that it is just as Zhang Fan expected: in the fairy world, such a showdown action does not seem to be like many fantasy illusions that can carry out surprise attacks and plots without scruples, just like mortal rivers and lakes with no rules at all. Even when there are showdowns and confrontations, they are always head-to-head actions. It's just that what Zhang Fan didn't expect in the end was that things seemed to be more "civilized" than he imagined.

When Huo Ran and Zhang Fan came to the location agreed in the Central Domain, Dao Yuan, a ninth-level master of the Dao Ancestor Realm who was also the same as the Dragon God and Huo Ran, also came. In addition to Heavenly Court Emperor Ancestor Daoyuan, of course, there are other Dao Ancestor Realm cultivators on the Heavenly Court side, among which there are four people in the eighth layer of the Dao Ancestor Realm, ten people in the seventh layer, and ten people below the sixth layer, a total of more than twenty masters of the Dao Ancestor Realm. Moreover, even Zhang Fan knew at this time that the entire Dao Ancestor realm lineup of Heavenly Court obviously could not be assembled, and a considerable part of them were used for combat readiness duty in a mysterious place, and there were some remaining forces. Among the powerhouses around the seventh or eighth floor, only less than half came. Many Dao Ancestors below the sixth floor have not yet come.

"I thought it was because you had a mysterious and unique opportunity to increase your cultivation by leaps and bounds, but I didn't expect that just by having one more Dao Ancestor Realm eighth-level monk, you thought that you had the qualifications to replace my current position in Heavenly Court?

Huo Ran said disapprerovingly: "You and I are both top powerhouses of the ninth layer of the Dao Ancestor realm, and the difference is not very great. If I'm going to go out of the old thousand, will you still have no perception at all? This time the illusion test, you and I, and the dragon god who came in a while to preside over together, so I can be a witness... ”

At this time, Zhang Fan was a little surprised that he didn't think that such a showdown would be carried out through the method of "virtual military exercise". I couldn't help but feel disappointed in my heart, but I also seemed to feel a trace of doubt and strangeness: according to the rough deduction of my own game theory, although it was normal for the confrontation between the Dao Ancestor realms to be taboo. But it seems that this is not the ultimate showdown of the peak master of the Dao Ancestor Ninth Layer Realm after all, is it necessary to be so cautious?

However, then Zhang Fan also thought of a situation: that is, at this time, there may be not weak external enemies or even external threats in the Immortal Continent. That's why they don't want to lose a penny of their strength. If there is this kind of awareness, it is obviously much higher than the plane that many fantasy planes play with the high-level immortal world as the mortal world...

Just a moment later, the Immortal Dragon God of the Barbarian Realm also arrived: "Hehe, the leader of the Carefree Alliance is really righteous, and he didn't forget to invite me to come." If there is any dispute between the two of you about the process, then make a ruling in the future, I believe there will not be too many objections, right?"

Of course, Daoyuan knew that the dragon god was closer to Huo Ran, but he didn't care at this time. This time, Dao Yuan didn't mind exposing some of his methods to press the bottom of the box, and he didn't believe that a genius at the eighth level of the Dao Ancestor realm could fight against ten monks of the same level plus more than twenty monks of the lower level and more than twenty monks of the sixth layer of the Dao Ancestor realm without necessarily having many decent magic weapons, because some of these monks under his command were obviously not in vain.

Similar to what Zhang Fan expected: in the virtual military exercise in the illusion, the lineup of monks below the ninth level of the Dao Ancestor realm on the Heavenly Court side is much stronger than the lineup that came to witness it, and it seems to have more than doubled the expansion, and many things that have not actually arrived are also assumed to exist.

Under the joint formation of the masters of the ninth layer of the Three Great Dao Ancestral Realms, in just two hours or so, a vast virtual world that seemed to be a radius of millions of miles appeared in front of him. This seems to be a map of a Heavenly Court important place in the Northern Regions, and although the fifty Dao Ancestor monks from the sixth to eighth layers have not gathered together to form a joint formation, they are all in a state of combat readiness and are on standby in at least ten formations that are not too far away. It is likely to simulate a situation in which the Heavenly Court Realm is ready for a possible surprise attack at any time under the condition of the Boss Altar's secondary combat readiness.

Zhang Fan appeared as a challenger. If Zhang Fan can surprise and win in this situation, it obviously means that if the two sides really have a showdown, the Easy Alliance will adopt guerrilla tactics against the Heavenly Court Realm, which is waiting for a strict battle, and in the case that Huo Ran is sure to contain Daoyuan, Zhang Fan alone will have the ability to change the status of both sides.

Of course, Zhang Fan is also very calm about this, and at the same time he is also very cautious. Instead of rushing straight to the target range as he did against his previous opponents, he patiently and slowly approached the target steadily while ensuring his own stealth, and did not seem to mind that the process of approaching was not a second or two in the fastest case, but more than a day and night.

When Zhang Fan was approaching the target position, of course, he also knew that there was no chance of winning a hasty and direct surprise attack, but patiently prepared for an attack in advance near the mountain range where the opponent gathered, and even opened a lot of hidden attack formations, in this way to offset the bonus of the opponent's defensive formation.
