Chapter 6520 Tactics
During the battle between Chen Yang and Xiang Lei, everyone was watching the battle.
Only Ren Lingjie was observing the floating runes on the battlefield.
He was also a rune master, but he did not practice formations, alchemy, or refining, but studied the way of rune paper.
Judging from his previous battles, his attainments in rune paper were not low.
It didn't matter to him who won or lost the battle between Chen Yang and Xiang Lei.
After observing several battles, he finally gained something. A tactic finally took shape in his mind, which had strong feasibility.
And he believed that as long as he used this tactic, he would be invincible and unbeatable.
He immediately took out fist-sized purple star stones and engraved incomplete runes on them at a very fast speed.
And these rune fragments were exactly the same as the fragments in his bronze tripod.
Since the bronze tripod can be combined with floating runes, the same rune fragments engraved on the purple star stone can achieve the same effect.
As for the energy provided by the bronze tripod, it can be completely replaced by the purple star stone.
In this way, although the buff rune cannot bless itself, all the floating runes that can form a negative effect with the bronze tripod in the battlefield have become Ren Lingjie's weapons.
It is equivalent to that the entire battlefield is full of his various rune papers.
And the power of these rune papers is not weak at all.
At that time, let alone facing opponents of the level of Zhen Xue and Xiang Lei, even if the other eight of the nine strong earthly immortals all enter the battlefield, he still thinks he has the strength to fight.
There are still several battles to come. In order to be safe, Ren Lingjie urged the bronze tripod to move forward while engraving more rune fragments at a very fast speed.
Everyone found that the speed of his bronze tripod slowed down, and they all looked at him puzzledly.
"What's wrong with Ren Lingjie? Why did he slow down the speed of the bronze tripod? Did he also lose confidence in competing for the top three?"
"No, you see he is engraving runes."
"So many purple star stones, all engraved with runes, what does he want to do?"
...
The discussion of the audience outside the ten thousand meter light shield also affected the nine strong earthly immortals.
Of course, they had already discovered Ren Lingjie's abnormality.
However, most people still don't know what Ren Lingjie is doing.
Even Yu Chengze, the formation master, didn't understand Ren Lingjie's purpose for a while.
Of course, this is also because he couldn't detect that Ren Lingjie was engraving rune fragments.
Otherwise, he would also think of the method of controlling the floating rune by integrating the rune fragments with the floating rune.
He thought that Ren Lingjie was engraving a higher-level fairy rune.
Li Ziqi, Xiang Lei and others all thought so.
Only Chen Yang, who was distracted and felt the purple star stone in Ren Lingjie's hand, when he didn't find the energy fluctuations that the rune should have, he was sure that Ren Lingjie had only engraved the rune fragments, and thus deduced Ren Lingjie's plan.
"Using all the negative runes is a very smart way. However, doing so consumes a lot of soul and star energy. Moreover, the opponent may not give him time to release the spirit rune."
Chen Yang was thinking so, and someone else activated the node, it was Zhen Xue.
So far, Zhen Xue has activated the fourth node and ushered in her last battle.
After winning this battle, she doesn't have to continue fighting to avoid returning to the starting point.
And at this time, her bronze tripod is not far from the central light ball. As long as this battle is won, the bronze tripod will move forward and will soon reach the end.
However, seeing Zhen Xue activate the node, the faces of others are a little ugly.
Zeng Yunling, Yu Chengze and others certainly dare not fight Zhen Xue, because it means defeat, why bother to make themselves unhappy and let the bronze tripod return to the starting point.
Li Ziqi is confident in his own strength, but at this moment he is in a weak state, let alone Zhen Xue, he can hardly deal with others.
In this way, there are not many people who can fight Zhen Xue.
For a while, Zeng Yunling and other nine strong earth immortals close to the node stopped pushing the bronze tripod. Only Chen Yang, Xiang Lei, Zheng Lie, and Ren Lingjie's bronze tripods continued to move forward, and the scene was a little embarrassing.
Seeing this, Zhen Xue couldn't help but frown.
She observed the situation and found that Zheng Lie was about to activate the node, which made her even more anxious.
If Zheng Lie activated the node and fought with her, he would definitely admit defeat, which would be so boring.
The one closest to the node was Ren Lingjie.
Zhen Xue was not interested in fighting with Ren Lingjie. In her opinion, the way of fighting using talisman paper was not the right way, and Ren Lingjie was not her opponent.
"Zheng Lie, stop right there, and don't activate the node."
Zhen Xue pointed at Zheng Lie and shouted, and then said to Chen Yang: "Chen Yang, hurry up, stop hiding your strength, push the bronze tripod with all your strength, I want to fight you."
"Okay, I'll stop now."
Zheng Lie laughed and listened to his junior sister.
He didn't want to fight with Zhen Xue, because admitting defeat meant he wasted another fighting opportunity.
And if Ren Lingjie activated the node and fought with Zhen Xue.
Then in the next battle, he and Chen Yang were closest to the node, and the chances of the two fighting were great.
The one he wanted to fight the most now was Chen Yang.
He always felt that Chen Yang was still hiding something and had not yet burst out his true fighting power.
This was an opponent worth challenging.
On the other side, Chen Yang showed an innocent expression, shrugged at Zhen Xue, and said: "I have tried my best. The bronze tripod can only move so fast."
"I don't believe it. You are just afraid of me and afraid of losing to me."
Zhen Xue said unhappily.
She glanced at Ren Lingjie, wanting him to stop moving the bronze tripod, but she was too embarrassed to speak and could only sulk.
Judging from the movement of the bronze tripod, the battle between Zhen Xue and Ren Lingjie seems to be a certainty.
However, everyone believed that Ren Lingjie would probably avoid fighting.
After all, judging from the current combat power, Zhen Xue is too strong.
What's more, defeating Zhen Xue means offending the boxing emperor's daughter.
Regardless of victory or defeat, it is not a good thing for Ren Lingjie.
Anyway, Zhen Xue wanted to fight Chen Yang, so Ren Lingjie made a slight concession, just as a favor and he could avoid trouble.
However, Ren Lingjie's bronze tripod was persistently moving towards the node.
This made Zhen Xue's complexion become increasingly ugly.
But suddenly, in front of the light node, Ren Lingjie's bronze tripod stopped.
"As expected, he still avoided fighting."
Everyone thought so.
Zhen Xue's eyes flashed with joy and she shouted to Ren Lingjie: "Thank you for letting me."
Then she said to Chen Yang: "Chen Yang, hurry up!"
Chen Yang chuckled, but he knew that Ren Lingjie was not giving in, but was preparing the carved rune fragments.
Suddenly, the bronze cauldron that Ren Lingjie stopped moved again.
The light node lit up, and he activated the node and became eligible to fight.
Everyone was stunned, not understanding what Ren Lingjie was doing.
Zhen Xue looked sullen, glanced sideways at Ren Lingjie, and muttered angrily: "Is this guy... kidding me?"
