Chapter 99 Preconceptions
"Thunder Magic, Thunder Prison!"

As Zhang Zhiwei slightly clenched his fist, the cage trapping the Japanese soldiers began to close.

The next instant, accompanied by a wail, the Japanese soldier in the lightning cage was instantly electrocuted and turned into a charred corpse.

After doing all this, Zhang Zhiwei wiped the sweat from his forehead.

Although his cultivation level was indeed among the best of the younger generation in the world of supernatural beings, he couldn't withstand the continuous siege by so many Japanese soldiers.

Just like a martial arts master facing an army on the battlefield, the blade will eventually bend, and the true qi in Zhang Zhiwei's body is not infinite.

If this continues, and his true qi and physical strength are exhausted, then no matter how strong Zhang Zhiwei is, he will ultimately be nothing more than fish on a chopping board.

Fortunately, Zhang Zhiwei did not come alone today, and the number of the Hieiyama Ninja Clan was far from being enough to kill an elephant with too many ants.

After using the Thunder Prisoner to kill another Japanese soldier, only three members of the Hieiyama ninja group who were originally besieging Zhang Zhiwei remained.

Meanwhile, Zhao Zhen was still constantly moving across the battlefield.

Each flash of golden light was accompanied by the gruesome death of a member of the Hieiyama ninja clan.

As for Eita Nikaido, he was entangled by Lu Ren, who arrived later.

Upon hearing that someone had impersonated him and ambushed Zhao Zhen, Lü Ren was furious.

As soon as the battle began, he set his sights on a member of the Hieiyama ninja clan.

However, his opponent did not engage him in direct combat at all. Instead, he fought and retreated, setting up countless traps along the way, and even trying to confuse him with words.

Lu Ren wanted to give up on this goal and turn to find someone else, but that guy turned back and wouldn't let him leave.

The two of them were locked in this entanglement for a long time, with one advancing and the other retreating, until Lü Ren became so annoyed that he decided to kill the other. But then the other person suddenly disappeared from his sight.

Lu Ren didn't know what the Japanese devils were up to until he returned to the front lines.

It turns out that guy was Yohei Aoyama. His purpose in bothering me was to observe my appearance and characteristics while guiding me away from the main battlefield!
Upon realizing this, even with Lü Ren's usual gentle and refined nature, he almost burst into a tirade of anger.

Despite his anger, Lü Ren still retained at least a modicum of rationality.

He knew that Zhao Zhen's methods were undoubtedly the most troublesome for all the Hieisan ninja at this moment.

Therefore, his primary goal now is to block Eita Nikaido for Zhao Zhen, so that he can unleash his Golden Release: Flowing Light technique and reduce the pressure on others.

puff~
After expressionlessly removing the silver needle, which was shrouded in a faint black aura, from the back of the corpse's neck, Zhao Zhen let out a long sigh of relief.

The consumption of the Golden Escape Flowing Light Talismans during such a high-intensity, continuous use of the Golden Escape Flowing Light was secondary; the most important thing was the depletion of his internal true qi.

Even with the support of alchemy and the stepping of the Big Dipper, to use the short-range Golden Escape Flowing Light so many times in a row, one still needs to activate the Sea Market Escape and Ghost Gate Needle when making the move.

With so many techniques used repeatedly, even Zhao Zhen's true qi had been depleted by now.

"How are you, Brother Zhao? Are you still holding on?"

Zheng Zibu came to Zhao Zhen's side and used the Five Warriors Talisman to protect Zhao Zhen from all sides, keeping a close watch on any sneak attacks from the Hiei Mountain ninjas.

"To be honest, the number of these Japanese devils is a bit beyond my expectations."

Zhao Zhen took a deep breath, and his internal alchemy continuously circulated through the Great Heavenly Cycle to restore the little true qi remaining in his body.

He wouldn't exhaust his true qi to the point of depletion. At all times, the key is to attack the enemy with three parts of his energy while reserving seven for himself. Only by staying alive can he continue to exert his power.

Looking back now, in the original story, the ninjas of Mount Bihe who the Tang Clan encountered in Mianshan, and even later in the Toutian Cave, were all "remnants" who had been "crippled" by the four families and three temples.

Even with these "remnants," the Tang Clan, in alliance with the Lü family and local forces outside the pass, paid a heavy price before finally eliminating them completely.

This shows that the power of the Hieiyama ninja clan far exceeded Zhao Zhen's imagination.

"Preconceived notions can really be a killer..."

As they were talking, Zhao Zhen suddenly remembered something.

Yes, first impressions matter!
Having read the manga, Zhao Zhen was very familiar with the younger generation of the Hieiyama ninja clan who appeared in the original story, and they all appeared on the battlefield, so he didn't think much of it.

However, just like the people from the four families and three temples who came this time, they were not only young disciples, but also their respective senior leaders.

So here's the question: if all the people here are the younger generation of the Hieiyama ninja, then where are their "seniors" right now?
Thinking of this, Zhao Zhen suddenly looked up towards the mountaintop.

"Brother Zheng, have the Celestial Master and Sect Leader Ding gone up there?"

"Yes, according to Patriarch Gao's plan, we are responsible for holding back the rest of the Bihe Mountain ninjas, while the Celestial Master and the Sect Leader are responsible for carrying out the decapitation operation and taking out their ninja leaders first."

“Something’s not right, Brother Zheng. It seems that only their younger generation is fighting us right now. That means that the older generation of experts from the Hieiyama Ninja Clan are very likely still protecting their ninja leader!”

Zheng Zibu was slightly taken aback, but a smile quickly appeared on his face.

"So what? They have senior masters, do you think we don't?"

Brother Zhao, trust the sect leader and the Celestial Master.

Boom! !

As soon as Zheng Zibu finished speaking, large patches of thunderclouds suddenly began to gather above the Cangshan Mountain, which had been cloudless for thousands of miles.

"This is……"

Zhao Zhen looked up at the thunderclouds overhead. The thunderclouds rolled like ink, like thousands of ferocious evil spirits crashing down from the sky, tearing the day into a chaotic night.

Thick clouds, carrying raging electric currents, seemed poised to unleash divine punishment upon the earth at any moment.

"Master has made a move?"

Zhang Zhiwei raised an eyebrow and instantly realized that his master was using lightning magic.

"Looks like I need to take care of you guys quickly so I can go help my master and junior brothers..."

Upon realizing this, the Yang lightning surrounding Zhang Zhiwei suddenly became even more intense.

"Brother Zhao, let's not worry about what's up there yet. We can go up and help the sect leader and the others after we've dealt with these enemies in front of us!"

"Ok!"

Zhao Zhen nodded, putting aside the jumbled thoughts in her mind.

Swish!
Zhao Zhen unleashed his Golden Escape technique once more, and in the next instant, he appeared behind the Japanese soldier who was exchanging blows with Zhang Zhiwei.

Just as he was still planning to use the same trick again to continue reaping the lives of the enemy with the Ghost Needle, a long knife appeared without warning behind the little Japanese soldier and stabbed towards Zhao Zhen's chest!
