88: Chapter 88 Bronze Horizons

Faced with such a surging offensive, Qin Ce, who had regained his composure, gave a slight smile at this moment.

"Do you really take me for an ordinary Bronze?"

Behind the Blue Luan, the Phoenix Flow had already taken shape.

The wind-element energy was fully charged!

"Let me show you the wind-controlling characteristics of the Nine-fold Azure Sky!"

Under Qin Ce's command, the Blue Luan flapped its wings and advanced instead of retreating, charging straight ahead.

Attacks came flying at them one after another.

Swish!

A fire snake shot out first; the Blue Luan twisted its body.

A magical scene unfolded.

It was as if that flame attack had invisibly pushed the Blue Luan away.

At the moment of impact, like magnets of the same pole, a mysterious force pushed the two apart.

The subsequent stone spikes and vine whips were the same; it was like hitting a feather with a stick—not only could they not land a hit, but the feather would suddenly change direction and spin with the wind brought by the stick.

This sudden spin, in turn, allowed it to dodge the subsequent lightning and frost.

This series of dodges was like a falling leaf, avoiding all attacks with a highly counter-intuitive displacement.

Like the Tiny Steps on Ripples, it distorted everyone's senses!

Coupled with the triple speed of the Roaming Dragon,

Qin Ce actually managed to weave through this core battlefield with ease, despite being only at the Bronze Rank.

Turn left! Turn right! Ascend! Dive! Roll! Sudden stop!

Every dodge was incredibly narrow!

Every turn was heart-pounding!

But every time, he remained unscathed!

And behind the Blue Luan, the energy of the nine phoenix tails continued to grow.

...

Soon, Qin Ce's flashy maneuvers caught the attention of the Beast Tamers on the battlefield.

"Holy crap, is that kid crazy?"

On a tower in the northwestern section of the main city, a middle-aged Beast Tamer in military uniform pointed at the blue figure frantically weaving through the distant sky, his face full of disbelief.

His name was Captain Zhou Hai, a high-grade Silver Beast Tamer and the deputy commander of the 3rd Battalion of the City Defense Army. Having served in Fengling City for over fifteen years and survived two beast tides, he was a true veteran.

At this moment, he stood at the observation post atop the tower, his eyes fixed on the flying blue shadow.

"A little Bronze Rank brat dares to dive into the Inner City battlefield?"

The young adjutant beside him also saw it and frowned. "Is he a student from the Battle Academy? That uniform..."

"Who cares what kind of student he is!" Captain Zhou Hai cursed. "This is a place where Silver Ranks are everywhere and Gold Ranks are as common as dogs. For a Bronze Rank like him to go in, is he looking for death?!"

"Get him over here immediately!"

Having said that, he reached for the communicator, intending to use a short-range call to tell the kid to get back.

But in the next moment, his movements froze.

Because he saw—

That blue figure made an unbelievable turn in the gaps between seven or eight attacks!

Turn left, ascend, side-roll, dive—

A series of movements as smooth as flowing water, forcing its way through that dense network of attacks!

Those attacks, enough to blow any Bronze Rank to pieces, all missed!

"This..." Captain Zhou Hai's mouth hung open. "How did he do that?"

The young adjutant was also stunned and murmured, "That positioning... it's just like a swimming fish..."

Captain Zhou Hai was silent for two seconds before slowly putting down the communicator.

"This strength... this... let's... let's watch a bit longer."

---

Qin Ce didn't know someone was watching him.

Nor did he have the time to know.

After getting used to the rhythm of the Inner City battlefield, his attention returned to the Raven Flock.

The Raven Flock had already begun attacking the crystal core turrets within the city.

Qin Ce was heading towards the one closest to him.

However, in the process, he still had to deal with the overwhelming attacks along the way.

To his front-left, another mid-grade silver Shadow Falcon was diving, its sharp claws glinting with a cold light!

To his back-right, a mass of violent flames had just exploded, and the fire was spreading across the sky!

Directly above, three bolts of lightning interlaced as they struck down, sealing off the upward path!

Below, a Gold Rank Earth Dragon was spitting magma, turning everything within hundreds of meters into a sea of fire!

No blind spots.

All dead ends.

But there was not a hint of panic in Qin Ce's eyes.

"Turn right thirty degrees, dive two hundred meters, then side-roll to the left."

He completed the calculations in his mind instantly.

The Blue Luan moved as instructed—

Turn right, dodging the Shadow Falcon's dive!

Dive, avoiding the coverage of those three lightning bolts!

Side-roll to the left, grazing the edge of that Ink Feather Mist!

The entire sequence was as smooth as flowing water and fast as lightning!

That mass of magma exploded violently two hundred meters below; the surging heatwave soared upward, lifting the Blue Luan and giving it a boost of speed.

Successfully broke through!

Qin Ce felt exhilarated!

This was already the forty-third attack he had dodged since entering the Inner City battlefield.

Every single one was lethal.

Every single one was narrowly avoided by him and the Blue Luan through that unbelievable positioning.

And at this moment, behind the Blue Luan—

Nine blue phoenix tails were slowly rotating.

Each phoenix tail was condensed from the wind-element energy dissipated from those attacks.

Rolling Wind Waves.

Qin Ce's gaze fell on those nine phoenix tails, then he looked not far away—

There, a squad of over thirty ravens was frantically attacking a red crystal core turret.

A faint black mist already shrouded the turret.

The firing frequency of the crystal core weapons on the turret was clearly decreasing.

The squad guarding the turret was desperately operating the anti-aircraft guns to fight back, but there were too many ravens for them to stop.

"We're here. Time to get to work."

Qin Ce gently patted the Blue Luan's neck.

The Blue Luan flapped its wings and accelerated instantly!

One of the nine phoenix tails wriggled like a living thing, flowing along the Blue Luan's body and into its core!

The next moment—

A silver Wind Blade shot out!

The speed of that Wind Blade was extreme, leaving a long white trail in the air!

The target was the densest part of that raven squad!

Puff, puff, puff, puff, puff—

A series of muffled thuds!

Three ravens were pierced by the Wind Blade simultaneously, falling with screams!

"Caw—!!!"

The leading raven shrieked in terror, and the remaining ravens scattered, trying to evade!

But the second phoenix tail had already merged into the Blue Luan's body—

A second silver Wind Blade shot out!

Five more fell!

The third, the fourth, the fifth—

With each phoenix tail merging, a silver Wind Blade was fired!

Each Wind Blade could harvest at least four or five Bronze Rank ravens!

By the time the ninth phoenix tail was used up, only five or six figures remained, fleeing in panic!

They flapped their wings desperately, fleeing into the distance, never daring to look back!

That red crystal core turret was saved.

Qin Ce hovered above the turret and looked down.

The defenders on the turret were staring up at him blankly.

Their faces were filled with unbelievable shock and bewilderment.
