Chapter 221 A Battle to the Death 8

Lei Mang's incredibly fierce attack had already roared in, carrying a world-destroying force straight towards them.

At this critical moment of life and death, Kuang Zheng made an astonishing decision!

He clenched his teeth, a fierce glint flashing in his eyes.

Just as the terrifying snake tail swept across like lightning, about to strike the opponent hard...

Lei Mang was suddenly surprised to find that Kuang Zheng, who had been struggling and resisting desperately, had given up resistance without any warning.

Not only did it cease resisting the power of the binding spirit, but the surging spiritual energy within its body also vanished without a trace, as if it had been instantly drained.

At this moment, Kuang Zheng seemed to have completely resigned himself to his fate and given up all resistance.

This sudden change was like a heavy hammer blow to Lei Mang's heart, causing it to tremble violently!

As the saying goes, "There's always something fishy going on when things seem unusual!"

In a life-or-death moment, any living being will instinctively rise up and fight, even if they know that such struggle is futile. But those who are on the verge of despair will not give up.

But the humans before us are doing the opposite, behaving in such a strange way. How can this not arouse suspicion?

Although just one more small step forward would have sealed the deal and brought the job to a successful conclusion.

But Lei Mang would rather suffer the backlash of the attack than let his attack stop.

Just as he successfully stopped his attack, the Crimson Shadow, who had been continuously enhancing the power of "Binding Spirit," unexpectedly released the powerful restraint.

It turned out that the perceptive man had also noticed Kuang Zheng's unusual behavior.

At this moment, Kuang Zheng clearly still had the strength to fight, but he suddenly gave up all his efforts.

Not only did they cease resistance, they even willingly offered their lives to the enemy.

How could such a sudden action not arouse suspicion?

At this moment, Kuang Zheng was like a piece of fish to be slaughtered, with no possibility of resistance or escape.

Therefore, even without the immense pressure and constraints imposed on him by the "Binding Spirits," given his current situation, there is absolutely no hope of escaping from the inescapable net they have laid.

If that's the case, then why expend so much energy to maintain "spirit binding"?

This was the thought that flashed through Chiying's mind after she saw Kuangzheng's abnormality.

However, deep down, he had somehow developed a sense of apprehension towards this seemingly ordinary human being.

Yes, that's right!

It's "fear"!

At first glance, it seems absurd: why would a top expert with the strength of the sixth level be afraid of a human who is only at the fifth level?

Of course, if we're being really serious, calling it "fear" isn't quite accurate.

More accurately, it would be more accurate to say that there was a vague expectation in my heart, mixed with a bit of caution.

He was hoping that Kuang Zheng would once again display some strange and precious treasures that interested him.

You have to understand, that previous spatial treasure was already so precious and rare, so who dares to say that he won't have other amazing and rare treasures?

This is what he hopes for.

The reason for such caution is precisely because of meticulousness.

The reason was that this seemingly ordinary human being was able to break through under extreme pressure, a situation he had never seen before in his thousands of years of life.

To avoid repeating the same mistake as Zhu Xian, who suffered a setback in an inconspicuous place, he decisively withdrew the "Spirit Binding" spell he had placed on Kuang Zheng.

A furious shout rang out: "Die!"

Something unexpected happened—just as Lei Mang and Chi Ying withdrew their attacks at almost the same moment, Zhu Xian, who had been holding back, suddenly launched an attack.

Just as Lei Mang's thick, massive tail retracted, Zhu Xian suddenly leaped up, shooting into the air like an arrow released from a bow.

His right foot, brimming with energy and carrying an overwhelming force, slammed into Kuang Zheng's chest with tremendous power.

This was a strike delivered with all the might of a sixth-level expert!

Its power was beyond imagination; in an instant, the wind and clouds changed color, and the sun and moon lost their light.

With this astonishing kick, an immense force swept in like a surging torrent.

Wherever it passed, space was instantly torn apart, turning into chaos.

In the blink of an eye, before anyone could even blink, Zhu Xian's kick, containing earth-shattering power, hurtled toward Kuang Zheng's chest like lightning!

Just as the kick was about to land squarely on Kuang Zheng's solid chest, something unexpected happened!

At this critical moment, an unbelievable scene suddenly unfolded.

Kuang Zheng, who had already given up all resistance and resigned himself to his fate, suddenly opened his tightly closed eyes at this moment.

As he opened his eyes, his previous dejection vanished.

He exuded an unprecedentedly powerful aura, and his eyes shone brightly, like two bolts of lightning streaking across the night sky.

The power he displayed was even more astonishing. Just as Zhu Xian's right foot was about to touch his chest, Kuang Zheng swiftly stretched out his hands and, like a hungry tiger pouncing on its prey, fiercely grabbed Zhu Xian's aggressive and unstoppable right foot.

This sudden turn of events left everyone present speechless with astonishment, their mouths agape for a long time.

Keep in mind that Kuang Zheng's strength is only equivalent to the mid-level of the fifth-grade realm!

Let alone someone at his level, even Lei Mang, whose strength far surpasses his, or even the more powerful Chi Ying, would absolutely not dare to directly confront Zhu Xian's fierce and sharp attack!

But the human in front of him, oblivious to his own mortality, lunged at Zhu Xian's right foot, which was brimming with the energy of a sixth-level cultivator. If this wasn't courting death, then what would be?

Although the "spirit binding" that had been placed on him had been withdrawn, the Ten Directions Cage still enveloped this space.

Although Zhu Xian's right arm was severed, his body suffered severe injuries.

Even so, Zhu Xian is still a genuine sixth-level expert!

It should be understood that the strength of a sixth-level expert is far beyond what ordinary people can contend with.

Faced with Zhu Xian's all-out attack, Kuang Zheng not only did not dodge, but also fearlessly grabbed the opponent's fully charged attack with his bare hands. This action really shocked everyone present.

Everyone stared wide-eyed, their faces filled with astonishment and confusion.

They simply couldn't understand why Kuang Zheng would do something so foolish and self-destructive.

Does he have some unknown backup plan or reliance?

Immediately, various speculations and discussions quietly spread among the crowd.
