    Following muffled swishing noises, tens of metal tes rose from a valley, flickering with dim lightning bolts. Treading on the metal tes, tens of Jia n warriors pounced on Ji Hao whileughing viciously.


    Over ten human-shank-thick bows buzzed brightly, while spear-like metal arrows flew towards Ji Hao. The Jia n warriorsughed confidently. They believed that Ji Hao would die.


    Ji Hao threw a sideways nce at those enormous arrows shot out by the Jia n warriors. The arrowheads were transparent, crystalline, three-feet-long, and covered with countless rolling spell symbols. Inside each arrowhead, spell symbols gathered into a ck and red cloud. This kind of an arrow was extremely powerful, normally used to break cities. But with these arrows, these Jia n monsters attacked Ji Hao, a single human being!


    "You’re rich, aren’t you?" Seeing these Jia n warriors releasing over ten powerful explosive arrows for him alone, Ji Hao smirked and pushed his palm out. Along with a resonant, high-pitched sound, his palm vibrated the air and generated a, hundreds of meters wide, cyan-colored, hand-shaped circle of light which pped on those arrows.


    Before the arrows were detonated by the spell symbols buried inside them, the cyan-colored hand-shaped light circle vibrated at a high frequency and shattered the arrows, disintegrating them into the finest grains.


    The pupils of the tens of Jia n warrior immediately shrank to the size of needle points, their eyeballs almost popping out of their sockets. They nced at Ji Hao in shock, then silently turned around and flew right away. The dim lightning bolts sparkling on their metal tes instantly grew brighter, leaving tens of meters long lightning bolts in the air.


    Ji Hao made a step forward and reached near those fleeing Jia n warriors. Then, he threw out his pair of fists and caused muffled whooshing noises. Heavy punchesnded on the backs of the Jia n warrior’s heads. One after another, these Jia n warriors were knocked out.


    Taking out a dark, triangr small g, Ji Hao pointed at these Jia n warriors. As a stream of Netherworld power puffed out, a twenty-meters-long space-crack appeared in the air. Along with clear metal ngs, tens of ck chains flew out of the crack, tied up these fainted Jia n warriors, and dragged them in.


    This small g was a treasure gifted to Ji Hao from Netherworld Hierarch after theirst deal. With this small g, Ji Hao could break the space and build a connection with the Netherworld whenever he wanted to send captives to Netherworld Hierarch. Netherworld Hierarch had arranged his people to wait on the other side. This was the main function of this g. Netherworld Hierarch had been keeping a ’receiving record’, ording to which, every time the captives Ji Hao sent over achieved a certain number, Netherworld Hierarch would settle a payment. He would pay Ji Hao with valuable natural treasures from the Netherworld, or weapons or tools that he made, or all kinds of his zombie works, ghosts, devils, etc. With enough captives, everything could be negotiable.


    Sending away these poor Jia n warriors, Ji Hao rolled up his sleeves and collected their metal tes. All non-humankind products had important reference value to the humankind. Before, human warriors had captured many simr metal tes from battlefields, but the metal tes used by these Jia n warriors Ji Hao encountered were three times faster than the regr ones. Clearly, the non-humankind had made a great progress in their techniques. Ji Hao would send these new metal tes to the Magi Pce, which might be able to crack them and create some new techniques.


    In a short distance away, a group of Yu n people on a city of cmity, who had been gazing afar from the city wall, noticed Ji Hao.


    Tens of Jia n warriors on patrol were taken down so easily by Ji Hao, and somehow, he sent them to an unknown ce. Watching this, a Yu n young man in a gray cloak angrily pointed at Ji Hao and yelled aloud. Following his voice, the erect eye of a, hundreds of meters tall statue on the city wall shone suddenly, and a dazzling beam of lightnded on Ji Hao’s body.


    Buzz! Ji Hao took a strike from the city of cmity even before he could activate the Pan Gu bell.


    So fast, indescribably fast! Ji Hao saw nothing but a blinding light shing across his eyes. Instinctively, he attempted to dodge, but before that, the light beam had alreadynded on him. The Taiji cloak released two streams of mist in the colors of ck and white, blocking the beam of light. But still, Ji Hao felt his entire body was burning; he even sensed a faint scorching smell from his hair and eyebrows.


    The tremendous impact force pushed him back for nearly a hundred miles. The water-tank-thick light beam didn’t fade, while the ck and white mist streams rotated at a high speed, forming an enormous whirlpool that shredded the light beam and sent it away.


    The strikeunched by the city of great cmity happened within a moment. As the group of Yu n peopleughed wildly out on the city wall, Ji Hao shed across the sky and showed up outside the city. Along with a sizzling noise, bright lightning bolts flickered before Ji Hao’s body. In the air, numerous water-tank-sized, hexagon-shaped, transparent defensive screens emerged and pieced together into a strong shield against Ji Hao.


    Those loudlyughing Yu n people were silenced immediately, choking on theirughter and almost dying of suffocation.


    They looked at Ji Hao, stunned. They couldn’t believe their eyes, as they failed to figure out how on earth Ji Hao survived a strike from the great city of cmity, even though that was only a small-scale limited strike!


    "A Divine Magus?" murmured a Yu n young man, "No, Divine Magi will also be injured by such a strike. So, it’s because of his treasures! That cloak of his is not only beautiful, but its defensive power is also way too strong!"


    The group of Yu n people greedily looked at Ji Hao’s cloak, even ignored him.


    Ji Hao paid no attention to these Yu n people. He carefully reached out his hands and pressed on the sparkling defensive screen before his face.


    Pop! Pop! A dreadfully strong force burst from the screen. As a lightning bolt dazzled across, smoke puffed up from Ji Hao’s ten fingers. Sensing a piercing pain, Ji Hao instinctively took his fingers away from the defensive screen.


    Ji Hao stared at this sparkling defensive screen in surprise. By now, he was incredibly strong. His body was over a hundred times stronger than any Divine Magus. However, this defensive screen bought him a pain. Clearly, this was an amazingly strong defensive screen, which could definitely block an attack from a Supreme Magus. Breaking this defensive screen would require a sizable number of Divine Magi and a long period of time. But during this process, this city of great cmity would certainly cause a major loss to those Divine Magi.


    "Stupid, undeveloped barbarian, these twelve cities are treasures from our homeworld. We got them thirty years ago!" Through the defensive screen, a Yu n young manughed at Ji Hao aloud, "For these twelve treasures, we almost emptied our treasuries. This time, we will show you their powers!"


    "Unstoppable attacks, unbreakable defenses... These treasures are perfect for both defense and offense!" Bragged another Yu n young man proudly, "Send out your so-called Supreme Magi. We will teach them a good lesson!"


    Ji Hao frowned. All of a sudden, he threw a fierce punch at the defensive screen of the city of great cmity in front of him.
