“No wonder they are the top geniuses from the Martial Academy, they are so young yet possess such strength. They probably aren’t much weaker than martial artists in the Transforming Origin Realm.”
Some commanders admired the suddenly unleashed strength of Lu Yun and the others in their hearts.
Most commanders were from the ranks, and the Transforming Origin Realm might be their limit. Without relying on killings on the battlefield, they wouldn’t be able to reach this level. They both envied and admired the prodigies of the Martial Academy.
With a single slash, Lu Yun instantly executed the Great accomplishment of Gale Thunder Flash Step to move away.
The purpose of doing so was simple – to avoid being targeted by powerful Demon Beasts.
Like him, if he were to dominate the Demon Beasts, it would certainly attract the attention of Fourth Rank and Fifth Rank Demon Beasts.
The stronger the Demon Beast, the higher its intelligence. Fifth Rank Demon Beasts were not inferior to human martial artists in intelligence, and could even command and lead other Demon Beasts.
Lu Yun, who was well aware of this, naturally wouldn’t make such a low-level mistake.
Having moved to a new location, Lu Yun swung another slash. The scorching saber light was like a boundless ocean, sweeping away a Third Rank Late-stage Demon Beast.
In an instant, the demon beast was split in half, its remains crashing to the ground.
“Is he really that strong?”
Zhang Kuang, who was not far from this location, had an entirely shocked expression.
To kill this Third Rank Late-stage demon beast, it would take him at least a dozen moves.
He didn’t expect it to be unable to withstand even a single slash from Lu Yun.
“I can’t believe I was competing with him to see who can kill more!” Zhang Kuang was filled with embarrassment at the thought of this.
If he knew that Lu Yun had only completed the Three Refinements of Agressive Aura, his embarrassment would have been even worse. He might have even dug a hole on the spot to bury his face.
He simply couldn’t bear such a disgrace.
Lu Yun noticed Zhang Kuang, but just nodded slightly before slashing again.
Massacre in All Directions!
This was the second move of the Seven Kill Saber Technique.
An ethereal slash erupted, not only producing a powerful saber light, but also a terrifying killing intent.
The terrifying killing intent enveloped everything within dozens of yards, and then the vast and boundless saber energy swept across.
Aoohou!!
A series of miserable howls echoed.
After achieving success in a single slash, Lu Yun immediately used the Gale Thunder Flash Step, disappearing from the spot.
Witnessing the mass of fallen Demon Beasts, all the soldiers from Morigin were shocked.
That slash was so terrifying, could it really have been unleashed by someone in the True Qi Realm?
Zhang Kuang was also dumbfounded, his embarrassment growing stronger.
“Ah!!!”
With a mad roar, Zhang Kuang went completely insane, swinging his giant saber and rushing towards a Third Rank Demon Beast.
Clearly, he was once again stimulated by Lu Yun’s slash.
With a single slash, a Third Rank Demon Beast was killed on the spot.
At the same time, the surrounding low-level Demon Beasts could not escape either.
“Aoowu!”
A Fourth Rank Demon Beast discovered the carnage and immediately charged over.
The Gale Demonic Wolf sprinted at full speed, its speed as fast as the wind, its whole body like steel, with a terrifying defense. Add to this its sharp fangs and claws, and its attack was dreadful.
Several Enter Martial Realm soldiers failed to react in time and were instantly torn to pieces by the wolf.
Immediately after, it glared at both the fallen Demon Beasts and the crazed Zhang Kuang, its eyes flickering.
With a swoosh, it charged right in front of Zhang Kuang, its powerful and sharp claws attacking him.
Zhang Kuang only reacted after it was too late, and he was overwhelmed with terror.
Why was he targeted by a Fourth Rank Demon Beast?
Without time to think, he mobilized his True Qi to form a defensive layer around his body while gripping his saber tightly in both hands, blocking the attack.
Clang!
As expected, Zhang Kuang was no match for the Fourth Rank Demon Beast. With a splash, he was blasted away, leaving a long mark on the ground.
Run!
Without any hesitation, Zhang Kuang didn’t even dare to check his injuries and fled immediately.
Although his strength was strong and he could even resist an ordinary martial artist in the Transforming Origin Realm,
he could only resist. Not to mention that the Fourth Rank Gale Demonic Wolf was far more powerful than cultivators in the Transforming Origin Realm.
As he fled, he noticed that the Gale Demonic Wolf was chasing him relentlessly, as if it would not rest until it had killed him.
“How could it be targeting me? It doesn’t make sense!” Zhang Kuang was extremely frustrated.
“Could it be…?”
As if he realized something, Zhang Kuang’s face flushed and he felt aggrieved.
He now understood why he was being targeted,
Previously, Lu Yun had unleashed the second move of the Seven Kill Saber Technique, Massacre in All Directions.
Almost a hundred Demon Beasts were killed, including several Third Rank Mid and Late-stage beasts, which immediately caught the attention of the Gale Demonic Wolf.
When it rushed over, it saw the corpses everywhere, and Zhang Kuang wantonly slaughtering.
As a result, Zhang Kuang became the scapegoat, completely targeted by the Gale Demonic Wolf.
Understanding the cause of events, Zhang Kuang only felt like crying helplessly.
“What the hell is happening!?”
With a mental scream, Zhang Kuang increased his speed to run for his life.
As expected of Martial Academy disciples, they had numerous means to preserve their lives, and for a moment, the speed-specialized Gale Demonic Wolf could not catch up.
Meanwhile,
Lu Yun discovered that the more Demon Beasts he killed, the more powerful the bloody lotus Platform’s aura in his Sea of Consciousness became, as if something was brewing.
Upon noticing this, Lu Yun split his attention to check his panel.
Seeing the progress of his Slaughter Conception on the panel, his heart was greatly surprised.
Unexpectedly, the progress of Slaughter Conception had increased to First Rank 11%.
It had increased by an entire percentage point, equivalent to fifty points of energy.
“Slaughter… slaughter…”
“Is this the way to improve Slaughter Conception?”
With the crimson in Lu Yun’s eyes becoming more intense, the killing intent emanating from his body was even more dense.
Kill!
With a sweep of his saber, Lu Yun slashed horizontally.
With a thud, the White Scale Purple Gold Knife severed the head of a Third
Rank Demonic Wolf.
Thanks to the saber energy, not a drop of blood stained the blade.
Stopping the killing with killings, being nourished by the killings to grow stronger, he became stronger as he fought.
Understanding the true meaning of the Slaughter Conception, Lu Yun’s actions became faster and faster, and more and more Demonic Beasts died under his knife.
Kill!
Kill!
Whether it was Second Rank Demonic Beasts or Third Rank Demonic Beasts, as long as Lu Yun saw them, he would swing his blade.
One.
Two.
Three.
Gradually, Lu Yun forgot how many knives he had swung or how many Demonic Beasts he had killed, but he always kept a strand of attention on his panel.
Seeing the slow increase of the Slaughter Conception, Lu Yun’s heart was stirred.
[Slaughter Conception increased to First Rank 12%]
[Slaughter Conception increased to First Rank 13%]
[Slaughter Conception increased to First Rank 15%]
As the darkness receded and dawn arrived, the Slaughter Conception had astonishingly reached First Rank 15%.
At the same time, the number of Demonic Beasts below East Field Giant City was rapidly dwindling.
The human side had also suffered greatly, with many soldiers’ corpses lying sprawled across the ground, tightly pressed against the remains of the Demonic Beasts.
Several soldiers’ corpses were tightly pressed against the Demonic Beast’s remains, and upon closer inspection, the soldiers’ weapons had pierced the heart of the Demonic Beasts, while the beasts’ claws had penetrated the soldiers’ abdomens.
On the other side, three soldiers were covered in wounds, but they had not fallen yet, fighting against a single Demonic Beast together.
It was a Second Rank Demonic Beast that only the Meridian Passage Realm veterans and squad leaders could handle.
As expected, after several charges by the Second Rank Demonic Beast, the already heavily wounded soldiers all fell to their doom.
Seeing such a tragic sight, Lu Yun’s brows furrowed, and he swept the White Scale Purple Gold Knife, unleashing a burst of saber energy, causing the surrounding Demonic Beasts to be reduced to tatters.
With his amazing perception and extraordinary vision, Lu Yun’s gaze was cast towards the sky in the distance.
There, a man and a beast were engaged in a fierce battle.
It was still the Sixth Rank Black-pupiled Demon Bull, which was clearly no match for the Golden Body Realm expert, as it was covered in wounds.
However, considering its still lively state and the lack of any fatal injuries, the terrifying Demon Energy it emitted was like dark clouds surrounding it, and each of its hooves was like a stone pillar, producing a rumble with every step it took.
Every collision between the two sides produced an after force that could be felt as an immense threat even several miles away.
Is this the true power of a Golden Body Realm martial artist and a Sixth Rank
Demonic Beast?”
Lu Yun’s crimson eyes flashed with an unusual light.
“Humans, wait for me to rest and then I will fight you again!”
Feeling that both sides had fought enough, the Black-pupiled Demon Bull withdrew.
At the same time, countless Demonic Beasts retreated like a tide.
The Golden Body Realm expert did not chase after them, and the large army did not pursue either.
“Screech”
The Green-Scaled Giant Eagle soared away with a beat of its wings.
The other Demonic Beasts were not so lucky.
As the main force of the Demonic Beasts’ army retreated, there was no power to stop them.
However, the vanguard of these Demonic Beasts that had broken through the army’s line of defense and arrived at the city walls were different.
Now that they were surrounded, they naturally could not be allowed to retreat.
“Demon Slaying!”
“Avenge them!”
Armies attacked from all sides.
Before long, there was not a single Demonic Beast left standing.
