Atlas of Heaven and Man.

Chapter 744: Tide
Qi Qianyang originally thought that the strength he had gained previously was enough to deal with Chen Chuan, but he did not expect that he would be chopped away by a single blow as soon as they met. So when he came back this time, he had released all the accumulated strength.

This fusion is not a simple and crude increase in strength, but a true integration with him, including the improvement of his spirit and even skills. After all, with sufficient mental strength and extraordinary physical fitness, many delicate and complex movements can be performed.

It was just a huge improvement, so he needed a certain degree of adaptation. Fortunately, the more force shocks the Fu Ming Jin suffered, the more perfect the alienated organization became. And with the repeated force shocks he had just experienced, coupled with the recovery ability he now possessed, his ability to withstand blows and defend himself had already been greatly improved.

Seeing that he had no injuries and was more active overall, obviously much stronger than last time, Chen Chuan guessed that it was probably because he used some special secret method.

However, he is not afraid of the strength of his enemies, because only strong enemies can help him climb to a higher level.

He stood there with a knife in his hand, and the white mist rising from his body became thicker and thicker, condensing in the sky.

Qi Qianyang finally came and stood in front of him, and there were wisps of steam coming out of his body at this moment, obviously he was also using the Furnace Breathing Method.

However, the difference between him and Chen Chuan was that black smoke like flying ashes came out of his body.

At this moment, he reached out and took out a telescopic whip from his waist. He shook it, and those layers of telescopic rings expanded outwards.

When the two men were about to start taking action, people from both Linax and the Federation stood on the periphery, staring at them.

In their opinion, both Chen Chuan and Qi Qianyang were extremely threatening people. Since the two of them took action first, there was no need for them to interfere. It would be a good thing for them if either of them died, and it would be even better if both of them died together.

On the hillside, Xu Chan and the three captains also saw the situation here, while Captain Lu and others had not yet recovered from the shock brought to them by Chen Chuan.

What did they see?
What happened just now was so fast. In just a short moment, Linax and some of the main forces of the coalition were knocked down and killed by Chen Chuan like a whirlwind.

They suddenly had a feeling that Chen Chuan could solve the current problem alone, and those imagined rescue and support seemed unnecessary.

After a brief confrontation between the two men below, Qi Qianyang moved first. He lowered his upper body, opened his hands, and spun forward. He used all his strength to drive the long whip in his arm. The whip drew a large circle and made a series of rumbling sounds as it swung, the sound was extremely shocking.

Chen Chuan did not dodge or evade, but stepped forward to meet him. Xue Jun swung his sword back and forth, cutting the whip circle. Two faint rays of light flashed at the point of contact.

The long whip is extremely flexible. If a certain part of it is hit, the second half will usually swing back to hit the enemy, or wrap around a weapon, and the person holding the whip can take advantage of the situation to pull it away.

However, this time, as soon as the two weapons came into contact, a force came from Xue Jun's sword, cutting off the force that was originally transmitted smoothly on the whip. In this way, even if the second half could be swung, it would not have any lethality. Moreover, the sword was from bottom to top, with a lifting and pulling force, and the second half of the whip was directly shattered into the air.

Seeing that his attack was thwarted, Qi Qianyang's eyelids twitched, and he swung his arms around and brought the whip back. The whip was long and could reach far, so it could attack the enemy from a distance. However, to unleash its maximum power, it had to turn around and swing it, and then transfer the force. This would inevitably take a process, and it would require continuous whipping to make up for it.

Now a gap appeared, which was immediately seized by Chen Chuan. He followed the momentum of the whip and went straight to the inner circle. He reached the front almost in a flash, and then stabbed with his knife!

Qi Qianyang's eyelids twitched. He knew that he must not let Chen Chuan advance any further, so he turned around and used the back half of the whip to block the stabbing Xue Jun's knife.

At this moment, the long whip turned from soft to hard, and in an instant became as hard as rock.

With a bang, there was a loud bang at the point where the two sides touched, and during the collision, a faint light kept bursting out and disappearing, as if sparks were flickering there.

However, since the accumulated power of the whip had not yet reached its peak, it was only solidified for a moment before this power began to weaken. At this moment, the sword light on the opposite side was bent and came slashing from the revealed gap.

Qi Qianyang's expression changed. Originally, he thought he had a greater chance of winning against Chen Chuan because his Fu Ming Jin had been able to withstand the latter's strength in their last fight. That was why he let go of his hands and feet right from the start, preparing to catch Chen Chuan off guard and seize the victory.

However, he discovered that the strength used by Chen Chuan was different from last time. This deviation forced him into a passive position after the first move.

At their level, once such a mistake occurs, it is almost impossible to recover, so now the only option left for him is passive defense.

He turned back again, causing the whip to rotate, and kept whipping to resist the continuously approaching knife light. Every time the sword light collided, the air vibrated and twisted.

But the situation became increasingly embarrassing, because the threat to him increased with each advance of the knife's force. Now Chen Chuan was stripping away the favorable space around him layer by layer, and when he himself was covered within the range of the knife's force, he would be beheaded with one blow.

At this moment, all his strength was used to deal with every blow from the opponent. He had no spare energy or time to make any other choices. It seemed that he could only wait to die. He was naturally unwilling to sit there and wait for death. His eyes suddenly turned blood red, and his skin also turned red. There seemed to be a trace of blood red breath in the black smoke. This was his last trump card. He didn't expect to be forced to this point right at the beginning.

But at this moment, a ray of light flashed, and a short spear was thrown in. Chen Chuan flicked his sword, and with a clang, he knocked the short spear out.

When Qi Qianyang saw this, the red light in his eyes disappeared. He immediately took this opportunity to create enough distance and turned his head. He saw that it was Heros who sat up from the ground. The short spear was thrown by him. He raised his eyebrows.

There were still many cracks on Heros' body, and it seemed that his injuries had not recovered yet. The reason why he took action just now was because he saw that Qi Qianyang was in a bad situation. If this man died, there would be no one on the field who could fight against Chen Chuan, so he threw a spear at the right time to help him escape from the danger.

Chen Chuan also glanced at Heros, but there was no emotion in his eyes, and his gaze returned to Qi Qianyang.

Qi Qianyang uttered a "hey" and shook the whip again, staring at Chen Chuan very seriously. This time he would not make the same mistake again.

Just at this moment, there was suddenly a loud noise coming from afar. In the dense forest, a large group of birds and insects flew in all directions, making the sky dark.

This situation attracted the attention of both of them and everyone around them. The fusion was extremely dangerous and any changes could not be easily ignored.

These creatures seemed to be avoiding something at this moment, flying past their heads at a high speed like a passing dark cloud. In addition, some creatures hiding in the forest suddenly ran out. This scene made everyone feel that something was wrong.

After a while, the ground began to tremble slightly, and then a rushing sound was heard, which was like the sound of the tide or a huge amount of sand rolling.

Qi Qianyang's expression changed at this moment. He had lived in the fusion land for a long time and was familiar with some situations. At this moment, he had guessed what that thing was. Although he had never encountered such a thing before, he had heard of such things.

After another ten seconds, everyone saw a black line appear at the far end, which quickly spread outward like a tide. However, everyone had amazing eyesight and they quickly saw clearly that it was not a tide, but a dense and endless stream of black beetles.

And at this moment these things are coming towards them!
Chen Chuan's eyes narrowed.

Is this...worm quicksand?

The two most terrifying insect swarms in the Fusion Land are the moth-like creatures and the insect quicksand. No matter what they are, their arrival is almost overwhelming. No matter how strong you are, if you fall into them, you will be eaten up in an instant without leaving a trace.

Insect quicksand is extremely rare, and now it appears here, it is most likely attracted by the fallen body.

The faces of everyone present changed. Even though they didn't know what this thing was, they knew that they had no chance of fighting against this massive swarm of insects.

Qi Qianyang looked at Chen Chuanchu at this time and said, "Manager Chen, it seems that our fight has to be postponed." As he said that, he turned around and ran towards a certain place at a rapid speed.

Just now, after Heros was knocked down, the relic fell off his body and rolled to the side. His target was exactly that thing.

At the same time, he blew a whistle, and the big bird circling in the sky lowered itself a little, apparently preparing to take the things and retreat.

But he had only run a few steps when he felt something strange behind him. He turned around to block the attack. With a bang, a stone exploded on the whip. The force was so great that it was almost like a cannonball. The hand holding the whip was also moved, and his running body almost lost its balance, and he staggered a few steps outward.

Then he turned around and saw a blade coming straight towards him. It seemed that there was no intention of withdrawing or stopping the fight. He could not help but curse inwardly, turned around and swung the whip forward. The whip drew a huge arc from back to front and lashed towards the approaching figure!

With a loud bang, there was an explosion sound at the point of collision.

But this time it was not just the place where the two weapons collided. Right under their feet, it was as if something had come to life. A large area of ​​the ground began to rise upwards with a rumbling sound, and the fallen object rolled into a torn crack in the ground.
