Matrix Survival: One random treasure chest per day

Chapter 836 Battle against the Drunken Evil Xiao

"Drunken Evil Xiao, what brings you here?"

Li Zheng walked out and looked at the pale blue-skinned guy on the street. The guy had long limbs and large hands, like two palm fans. He was none other than the last and only surviving member of the Tianlong Clan - Zui Xie Xiao!
"I've come to demand the Black Dragon Spear." Drunken Evil Xiao stood there, exuding an aura that gave off a subtle pressure.

Li Zheng frowned and said, "Why do you want the Black Dragon Spear from me? Why don't you go to the blacksmith shop and ask your senior brother to forge another one for you?"

"Forge another one?" Zui Xie Xiao said, "You make it sound so easy. One of the materials used in the Black Dragon Spear is a rare treasure found in the Sin Domain. It's a once-in-a-century find. Crane Man spent more than ten years collecting it before he could find some. He only managed to forge two Black Dragon Spears. After I bought one, I didn't have enough crystal coins, so I went out to work and earn money. I didn't expect that after I earned the money, I would find that you had bought it."

Li Zheng nodded: "I see. But the Black Dragon Spear has already recognized its master, and I don't want to give it to you. What should I do?"

"Already bound to a master?" Zui Xiexiao was stunned. "Impossible. The Black Dragon Spear's requirements for a master's fighting spirit are extremely demanding, and it will also absorb a large amount of the blood of the person bound to it. How could you possibly have bound to a master..."

Li Zheng shrugged and said, "If you don't believe me, I can take out the Black Dragon Spear now and go to the wilderness with you to verify it."

Zui Xie Xiao narrowed his one eye slightly: "You want to spar with me? Kid, don't forget that you almost died at my hands when we first met. Only a few months have passed, you can't possibly be my match. Give me the Black Dragon Spear, and I'll make up for double how much it cost!"

“It’s not about the money.” Li Zheng shook his head. “It’s rare to find a weapon that suits me. If I give it to you, what will I use?”

"I am skilled with dual pistols, and the Black Dragon Spear can only be used to its fullest potential in my hands," said the Drunken Evil Arrogantly. "In your hands, it is nothing more than a pearl covered in dust!"

"A pearl covered in dust? What arrogance!" Lu Li, who had come to watch the spectacle, couldn't stand it anymore: "There are only weapons that are unworthy of Old Li, not things that he is unworthy of using. You'd better leave quickly, or don't blame me for being impolite!"

“That’s right!” Feng Shan also stepped forward, his expression extremely arrogant: “Blue Elf, I advise you to be sensible, or I’ll beat you to a pulp!”

Zui Xie Xiao sneered: "You bunch of chickens and dogs think you can beat me to a pulp? I'll give you that chance. As many of you come at me at once. If I win, the Black Dragon Spear is mine."

"There's no need to outnumber them; I can handle it all by myself."

A cold voice rang out in the arena. Zhan Zhouzhou walked over from not far away: "You can beat me. The Black Dragon Spear in Li Zheng's hands is yours. You lost. What are you going to say?"

"I will lose?" Zui Xie Xiao's eyes narrowed slightly, his heart filled with shock at the astonishing aura emanating from the woman before him, like an unparalleled sharp blade, capable of piercing a person with a single glance.

"If you can't offer something of equal value, that's fine too," Zhan Zhouzhou said coldly. "As long as you're willing, you can serve my clan for ten years."

"Sell your life?" Zui Xie Xiao sneered, "You can talk to me after you win."

“Okay…” Zhan Zhouzhou’s expression was indifferent as she turned and walked towards the teleportation portal.

"Wait!" Li Zheng called out to her, "I'll do it."

Zhan Zhouzhou looked at him: "Are you sure you can do it?"

Li Zheng strode towards the teleportation portal: "Me? I'm afraid I might accidentally kill him."

Upon hearing this, Zui Xie Xiao sneered, "Aren't you afraid I'll beat you to death?"

Following Li Zheng's steps, the two quickly arrived at the teleportation gate, followed by a large group consisting of Zhan Zhouzhou, Lu Li, Feng Shan, and others.

"Which number should we go to in the wilderness?" Li Zheng asked, stopping in his tracks. "You decide."

Zui Xiexiao casually recited a string of numbers, then walked into the portal with a cold smile, finally giving Li Zheng a defiant glare. "You don't need to come, I'll be right back." Li Zheng got up and followed.

The scenery before my eyes changed, and I was surrounded by waves of heat. It turned out that I was in a volcanic crater!

Li Zheng stood at the edge of the crater, facing Zui Xie Xiao directly. Both of them held a long, pure black, matte-finish spear—the Black Dragon Spear.

The space suddenly fluctuated, and Zhan Zhouzhou and the others also appeared on the scene, each standing on the left and right, seemingly to watch.

Li Zheng frowned slightly. Why did these people ignore his advice and come along?

He originally intended to directly activate the "Entering the Dao" state of the Formless Body to defeat or drive away Zui Xie Xiao. However, there were other people present, and he could not guarantee that he would not attack others after entering the Dao.

Fortunately, this is the crater, which can be considered his home ground.

He has more than fifty fire-related runes in his body. If used properly, even without entering the Dao, he might not be a match for Zui Xie Xiao.

Zui Xie Xiao glanced warily at Zhan Zhouzhou, who was standing next to him. Of all the people present, Zhan Zhouzhou was the one who put the most pressure on him. It was a sense of threat that he would be killed if he was not careful.

Li Zheng sensed Zui Xiexiao's emotions and a faint smile appeared on his lips: "Don't worry, before you kill me, no one will dare to interfere in the battle between you and me."

"Is that so?" Zui Xiexiao withdrew his gaze and looked at Li Zheng: "I hope they will listen to you."

"No need to provoke us." Zhan Zhouzhou said calmly, "Li Zheng is our recognized leader. We certainly won't make a move before he dies, but after he dies, you will be our mortal enemy, the kind that will fight to the death."

"Hehe." Zui Xie Xiao chuckled twice: "I didn't expect that the little newbie I met back then would have such a great reputation. Then I can only try my best to spare your life."

"Me too."

Li Zheng raised his spear, his eyes suddenly narrowed, and thunderous wings suddenly unfurled behind him, creating a powerful gust of air that spread out in all directions, sending several white streaks of light flying straight towards Zui Xie Xiao.

"Such intense pressure!" Zui Xie Xiao instantly abandoned his contempt. Li Zheng was able to suddenly unleash pressure comparable to that of the woman next to him, which was truly beyond his expectations.

"You're also skilled with a spear? Let me see if you're truly qualified to possess the Black Dragon Spear!"

Zui Xiexiao stomped his foot hard, and a golden light emanated from his body. His fighting spirit, along with the golden light, shot straight into the sky, like a spotlight.

The two met above the crater, and simultaneously unleashed their Black Dragon Spears, stirring up the magma beneath the volcano and creating ripples.

boom! boom! boom!
Li Zheng's spear technique is straightforward. After many refinements, he has long since abandoned all fancy moves and relies entirely on speed and power to swing his spear, with each move aimed directly at vital points!

Zui Xie Xiao's spear fighting style is very similar to Li Zheng's. Li Zheng is straightforward, while Zui Xie Xiao is exceptionally fierce and only goes head-to-head with Li Zheng, competing in physical strength.

The two became increasingly alarmed as they fought.

Zui Xie Xiao was surprised that Li Zheng's physical strength was no weaker than his own. Every time the spears clashed, his palms were shaken and felt a dull pain. He even had the illusion that the spears would slip out of his hands.

Li Zheng was astonished by Zui Xie Xiao's ability to take to the air. He was able to fly by using the enhanced version of the Demon Thunder Wings, but Zui Xie Xiao could levitate in mid-air simply by stepping on his feet, as if there were countless steps beneath his feet.
