Chapter 512: Shui Yuntian’s Killing Technique!
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Bei Feng had a strange expression on his face. It was just some gangster rabbits, was there really a need to be so depressed? If a sex poodle really came out, keke, that would be a different picture.
“With just these few people, they still want to dream of wiping out the gangster rabbit nest? That’s like an idiot speaking of his fancy dreams. My guess is that those people hiding in the dark are probably getting more anxious now?”
Bei Feng stood outside the cave, staring into the distance. It was unclear what he was thinking about.
After such a tragic battle, the over thousand human cultivators had suffered a great loss to their numbers. Even adding all of them together, there were less than 500 remaining. Their casualty rate was extremely heavy.
The leaders of the four groups also felt an incredible heartache at this loss. They gathered together, and discussed softly for a long time before all their forces joined together again.
The gangster rabbits had suffered a much heavier casualty rate than the humans; if not for the arrival of the peak Hundred Year realm gangster rabbits, their casualty rate would have been even graver.
Unfortunately, the gangster rabbits here were simply too many. There were over ten thousand of them at least, and although only a small portion of them was at the Hundred Year realm Fourth Layer, with the help of the Celestial Emperor Bamboo, more and more of them would grow to the Hundred Year realm Fourth Layer level of strength.
The only way forward was to kill them as fast as possible; otherwise, if the battle was dragged out any longer, the chances of wiping them out would be even slimmer.
Shui Yuntian looked at the brightly lit camp far away, his face expressionless, like a god staring disdainfully at the mortal world.
“How’s the setup going?”
A question rang out.
A black-robed man appeared behind Shui Yuntian, kneeling onto one knee and answering respectfully, “Young Master, the setup is already done; we only need a few sacrificial offerings now.”[a]
“En, go and prepare it.”
Shui Yuntian nodded.
“Yes!”
The black-robed man disappeared like a puff of smoke, vanishing into the distance.
Night descended slowly, and the moon was shrouded by dark clouds. The forest was already extremely dark originally, but now, it was impossible to see one’s hand if they stretched it out before their face.
Numerous black shadows shot through their forest, their hands holding black long swords.
Many lives were being reaped soundlessly, and the black shadows were like killing robots, swift and precise!
70 black-robed men stood far away atop the trees as they took out a fist-sized ball of blood-colored fluid from their spatial rings.
The ball of liquid seemed to contain life, and it continued changing form countless times in the man’s hand.
A bronze cauldron only as large as a human skull was placed on the side, after which the ball of blood was poured into it.
“Si, si!”
As soon as the blood-red fluid was poured into the cauldron, a sizzling sound of corrosion could be heard.
Without the need for any fire, the blood-red fluid evaporated rapidly, and a large amount of fresh blood was poured into the cauldron like a waterfall.
The bronze cauldron was like a bottomless hole, accepting all and rejecting nothing. Each black-robed man walked up to the cauldron, and took out large amounts of blood which they poured into the cauldron.
Finally, a thin layer of blood-red crystals had formed at the bottom of the cauldron, looking like candy.
Only after keeping this layer of fine crystal away carefully did the black-robed man sigh in relief.
“Prepare to move out.”
A gruff voice sounded.
The other black-robed men did not reply, and only tightened their grip on the sharp swords in their hands.
In the camp that’d gone through a huge battle in the day, over a hundred cultivators were patrolling vigilantly. This was the Hundred Break Mountain Range, and they were not far from the gangster rabbits’ nest. Nobody dared to be careless.
“The only thing that’s of some value from these gangster rabbits is just their Demonic Dan. Say, why do you think Big Brother is so adamant about hunting them?”
“Who knows? Maybe Big Brother just wants to help the people get rid of a scourge?”
“Ha, when was the last time you saw so many Hundred Year realm Fourth Layer gangster rabbits on such big scale?”
A team of 10 men was discussing with interest as they patrolled the camp’s several kilometers long borders.
Everyone hesitated when they heard these words; not to mention having seen so many Hundred Year realm Fourth Layer gangster rabbits, they hadn’t even heard of such a thing before in the past.
“Brother Lin, you’re saying that there’s some extraordinary reason for the gangster rabbits’ strength to improve so rapidly in a short time?” the person asked as his eyes blazed with agitation.[b]
Lin Li chuckled coldly, and said, “Keke, why else do you think that Big Brother bothers to try to wipe out these gangster rabbits without caring about the costs? My guess is that the other three groups had also come for the same purpose.”
At the same time, he was also trying to figure out just what kind of miraculous thing could cause those many gangster rabbits to transform in such a way.
Lin Li cursed in his heart as he thought gloomily, ‘How hateful, looks like we still aren’t trusted enough yet! To think that we didn’t even get the slightest bit of news, hmph! When the time comes, don’t blame me for being selfish!’ [c]
Hearing everyone discussing about what kind of treasure it was, and wondering if they would get a cut, he could not help but to scoff coldly in his heart at these idiots.
‘Hm? What’s that?’
Lin Li turned around, and looked at a faint red light. Reaching with his hand out lightly, a tiny ball of light even smaller than a sesame seed landed on his palm.
Before Lin Li could see clearly what it was, the red light suddenly revealed its radiance, instantly breaking past his blood Qi and burrowing into his palm!
Lin Li’s entire body stiffened, and a red dot smaller than a sesame seed had appeared in his palm. With the red dot as the center, countless blood-red patterns extended through his body!
“Bang!”
Lin Li’s muscles tightened and suddenly expanded as though his body was bloated up with air. His clothes were directly torn apart by the body that suddenly grew several times in size!
The other nine men stared at Lin Li with shock.
A person stood out, and asked timidly, “Brother Lin?! What happened to you?”
“Ka-cha!”
In the next moment, Lin Li’s huge body suddenly flashed, leaving an afterimage behind. His mouth had stretched to his ears, and his teeth had grown long and sharp; with a single bite, he snapped off that person’s neck!
“Kill! Kill him, he’s no longer our brother Lin!”
All these had happened too quickly; nobody could expect that such a huge body could actually be so nimble, moving around without sight nor sound. The others only briefly glanced at each other, and immediately used their killing techniques!
In the darkness of the forest, a patch of faint, strange red light floated gently along like little fireflies.
The red light floated noiselessly into the camp; although its speed was slow, it did not deviate from its course at all.
All the Demonic Beasts in its path were corrupted by the red crystals. Although these light specks looked slow, they were actually travelling as fast as a bullet when within the range of three meters from their target!
The huge forest suddenly felt extremely strange; there were no sounds of beasts roaring, and not even the chirps of bugs could be heard.
“Something’s wrong. For some reason, I suddenly have a foreboding feeling.”
Inside the largest tent of the four commanders’ tents in the camp, a tall middle-aged man who looked learned and refined sat up with a sharp gleam in his eyes. The man looked more like a scholar than a bloodthirsty warrior.
“Big Brother, you’re thinking too much. We have tens of out brothers patrolling out there; even a Thousand Year King realm Demonic Beast cannot kill everyone soundlessly and come here,” a tall and muscular man at the side said nonchalantly as he brandished a pair of strange weapons in his hands. The weapons looked like a hook and a blade combined.[d]
“Perhaps it’s because the matter of the Celestial Emperor Bamboo was too important, that’s why my nerves are a bit frayed.”
The six people in the tent were all akin to his own heart. With decades of close friendship, Zhang Jun did not hide anything from them.
“AH!”
A wretched and terrifying scream suddenly rang out from within the camp!
“Not good! Follow me to take a look!”
The unease in his heart instantly reached a crescendo, and his temples throbbed heavily. After so many years in the pugilistic world, living by his blade, he could easily tell that that kind of scream was only released when a person was on the verge of death!
“Monster, AH!”
“AH!”
“Quick, run! I can’t hold it back!”
Numerous screams and cries rang out, along with a few savage roars.
Zhang Jun took the lead at the front, with his five trusted brothers behind him. Hearing the din outside, he could not help but furrow his brows. Gathering his zhenqi into his throat, he opened his mouth, and shouted, “DON’T—”
Several tens of weak-looking red lights instantly turned in Zhang Jun’s direction as soon as they sensed his zhenqi. The spots of light shot towards him, easily breaking through his zhenqi barrier, and leaving numerous red spots on his body.
Zhang Jun’s words were stuck in his throat, and his face convulsed with pain. Slowly, he lowered his head, and his body merged into the darkness.
“Big Brother?!”
The five people behind Zhang Jun only managed to react now. The light specks had been simply too quick; even Zhang Jun’s half-step Thousand Year King realm blood Qi barrier was broken through!
Seeing Zhang Jun who was now covered in the shadows, the remaining five were momentarily lost.
“This won’t do. Although we don’t know who the enemy is, it’s definitely coming closer and closer to us. The two of us will stay back here to hold the lines; the three of you, take Big Brother and leave first!”
The stalwart man furrowed his brows and instructed the others as he perked his ears and listened.
“Eh... Big, Big Brother?”
The stalwart man looked at disbelief at the arm that was sticking through the right part of his chest. This arm was filled with scales, and its palm was covered in a layer of keratin. Five extremely sharp claws extended from its fingers, and a strange sound came from the mouth of the creature that the arm belonged to!
“Hou!”
Zhang Jun’s other hand unhesitatingly pierced through the stalwart man’s chest’s left side, and with a ruthless pull, the man was torn into two, blood and gore splashing through the air and drenching Zhang Jun within.
“No!”
“That’s not Big Brother, Big Brother is already dead! The thing in his body is nothing but a demon!”
The other few men had been blocked by the stalwart man’s body. None of them had expected that Zhang Jun would suddenly take action. The four instantly went crazy, not caring about the consequences as they erupted with their full power!
Two long, curvy horns grew out from Zhang Jun’s ears; he now resembled a human-shaped Demonic Beast.
The four men were not weak; two were at the peak of the Hundred Year realm, and the other two were at the Hundred Year realm Fourth Layer late stage. But in a clash of strength, they were not even able to withstand a single blow!
Easily breaking through the four’s joint attack, Zhang Jun’s face flashed with savagery as he forcefully endured a punch and reached out, instantly tearing one of the Hundred Year realm Fourth Layer late stage expert, a man who was as close as a blood brother to him, to shreds.
“Ka-cha!”
A halberd that was hacking towards Zhang Jun’s head was blocked by his horn; the clash created bright sparks between the halberd and the horn before they both shattered together!
In less than five minutes, only the deformed Zhang Jun was left in the area. One of his horns was broken, and a huge wound could be seen on his chest. Even his right palm had been severed in half.
