Chapter 737: Chapter 345 Convergence_2
As for the spiritual energy voice transfer that should have been efficient… The presence of the Immortal Palace had interfered with the flow of spiritual energy, to the extent that Li Yelai had not heard anyone shouting in the Void Realm up to now. They could only communicate by firing signal flares.
However, the very next second, Li Yelai’s gaze turned to the distant sky, where a conspicuous orange firework surged.
Was that a distress signal?
Li Yelai’s expression slightly changed, and he lifted the scarlet reins in his hand. Ya Yu let out a low roar and instantly leapt up, rushing towards the firework’s location with the utmost speed.
At the same time, in the woods, several figures were running swiftly. Among them were official spiritual ability users, family spiritual ability users, and two border iron guards from different Giant Cities.
Behind them, a massive vibration was rapidly approaching.
The ground trembled, and the trees shook. Numerous shadows darted through the woods—it was clearly a sizable group of beasts chasing them.
Their luck wasn’t too bad; they had been thrown together into this area, each within the others’ sight, providing some mutual support.
However, just as they successfully regrouped and planned to release a signal in an open area to gather more companions,
they unexpectedly ran into another group of people.
This should have been a welcome reunion, being scattered in this treacherous Immortal Palace, for meeting with fellow humans was the best choice.
Of course, considering that there were Chaos believers mixed among them, they also had to be cautious in identifying them.
But the other group had no intention of contacting them and quickly fled from their vicinity without a word.
They were still surprised.
The next second, they saw a herd of beasts charging out from behind.
That group was planning to use them to shake off the beasts pursuing them!
Experiencing firsthand the pernicious nature of society!
“Those people are definitely Chaos believers! Absolute beasts!” shouted a beautiful girl in the group, with purple-golden colored eyes, in anger.
It was Zi Tong, a official Processor whom Li Yelai had seen once.
“Steady your breathing, keep moving!” reminded a Four Awakenings Night Patrol named ‘One-Handed Sword.’
“Perhaps not, at least two of them are family spiritual ability users,” replied a youth carrying a large bow.
He introduced himself as Ma Gong, an external member of the Ma Family.
He was also the strongest spiritual ability user present, being a Five Senses Spiritual Ability User.
“In life-and-death situations, great fear arises. It’s normal to do anything to survive in such extreme circumstances. You need to get used to it, little sister,” Ma Gong said.
Zi Tong then glanced back at Ma Gong.
She and One-Handed Sword, including the two border iron guards,
were actually suspicious of Ma Gong’s identity.
Especially one of the iron guards from Border City No. 2. He was sure that the Ma Family did not have such a master.
Zi Tong also noticed, through her own eyes, that Ma Gong’s face was disguised.
There must be something wrong with Ma Gong! Could he be a Chaos believer?
But… Zi Tong herself was only at the Third Awakening, and One-Handed Sword at the Fourth Awakening, even with the addition of the two iron guards, they were no match for a Five Senses. Ma Gong was truly powerful.
Unless they united with the captain or elite Night Patrol, they dared not confront Ma Gong openly. Fortunately, Ma Gong seemed to have no malice towards them.
“No matter what happens, we must ensure Zi Tong’s safety!” One-Handed Sword said.
In the official strategy, Zi Tong, with her special ability, was an essential part of conquering the Immortal Palace.
She could help reduce many casualties among the human warriors in the challenges.
“We are ready to cover the rear at any time!” both iron guards responded in unison, recognizing the importance of Zi Tong. She was a miracle comparable to a Spirit Extinguisher, a miracle belonging to humanity, and nothing could go wrong!
“Don’t worry, with me here, it won’t be hard to lead us out,” Ma Gong calmly said.
The group gave no response; actually, they were more worried about Ma Gong.
However, the vibration from behind was getting stronger, and the pack of beasts was already closing in.
They were a group of hyena-like creatures.
Most of them were Third Awakening, a small number were Four Awakenings, Five Senses Strength.
Their numbers were many and extremely dangerous.
It was also unknown how they managed to maintain such a large clan.
“Damn…can’t shake them off!” the Iron Guard shouted, “We’ll cover the rear, you all disperse and run!”
“Wait!” The One-Handed Sword, running in the front, suddenly turned pale and shouted, “There’s a strong Spiritual Energy Fluctuation approaching rapidly, it’s a Sixth Sense Extraordinary Creature!”
This caused Zi Tong’s face to turn pale, and the Iron Guards also fell silent instantly.
Ma Gong, however, had a serious look as he took down the longbow from his back, murmuring something…
Being surrounded and intercepted by a beast horde and running into a Sixth Sense Extraordinary Creature… the outcome would be grim.
“That Sixth Sense Creature and the hyenas behind it aren’t together; maybe we can use this to our advantage!” The One-Handed Sword racked his brains, trying to find a way for Zi Tong to escape.
But Zi Tong widened her eyes as, in the moment she passed between tree trunks, she saw a red light fast approaching in the sky—it was a majestic and ferocious beast! And behind that beast… there seemed to be a human figure.
Someone was riding that beast?
Zi Tong’s scalp tingled.
But soon, activating her ability, she clearly saw the Sky Halberd in the hands of the comer!
And in her memory, found that familiar figure.
“HAHAHAHA!” Zi Tong laughed in an unflattering manner, suddenly stopping her run. She raised her middle finger at the beast horde not a hundred meters behind her, “Fuck, come at me, you bastards!”
That’s it, she’s lost it!
The One-Handed Sword inwardly wailed, really thinking you can taunt a supernatural creature to death?
You’re not the Moon Shadow Captain, you don’t have that ability, okay?
However, the distant beast horde suddenly became agitated. They stopped at their fastest speed, their claws leaving deep marks on the ground, even colliding with a few large trees. Then, they fled in terror.
At the same time, a voice came from the sky: “Since you’ve all come, die here!”
The next instant, a red light heavily smashed into the midst of the beast horde. The huge impact made the ground tremble, splashing up countless dust and mud, and also flattening two giant hyenas directly.
Ya Yu’s ferocious, massive form emerged amidst the dust.
And on Ya Yu’s back stood a figure in Black Gold Bright Armor, waist tied with a red ring-headed knife, holding a Sky Halberd.
Below him, Ya Yu charged forward, instantly killing several giant hyenas. Before the over four meters shoulder height Ya Yu, the over two meters shoulder height giant hyenas were far too small. Even the Fifth Sense hyenas were crushed by Ya Yu, biting their heads to pieces.
And the figure swung his long spear horizontally from his hands, with a golden Dragon Shadow roaring out, swiftly and precisely chopping off the hyenas’ heads.
“Mountain Lord, have a feast,” the man spoke in Virtual Realm Beast Language.
‘HAHAHA, my favorite part!’ An enormous black tiger emerged on either side, immediately charging into the beast horde like a tiger into a flock, going on a killing spree.
I can’t beat Ya Yu, but can’t I beat a beast horde of at most Fifth Sense? Hmph! A bunch of food!
The beast horde, which chased Zi Tong and the others in utter disarray, collapsed instantly under the attack of the two beasts and one man.
And watching that blood-bathed figure, the One-Handed Sword and the others joyfully joined the battlefield.
“Night General Captain!”
“Champion Agent!”
Perfect, the unbeatable Night General Captain below Sixth Sense has arrived at the battlefield, even if this Ma Gong is a Chaos Chosen, he’d better behave!
They were overjoyed, as two troubles that were bothering them were resolved simultaneously.
“Is that…the Night General?” Ma Gong also joined the battle, his longbow shooting arrows that precisely pierced through the hyenas’ chests, but he frowned slightly, “Unbeatable below Sixth Sense, equal match above it, that captain… he’s really strong, terrifyingly strong! I wonder if that Green Flame Chosen can match him.”
When the last Fifth Sense giant hyena was swallowed alive by the Mountain Lord, the rest of the beast horde had long since fled without a trace.
Li Yelai also gave up the chase, his gaze sweeping towards Ma Gong.
In the recent battle, he noticed that this Spiritual Ability User’s arrows were quite powerful.
Even though he was a Five Senses Spiritual Ability User, he could severely injure the hyenas of the same Five Senses Strength.
A non-human special attack?
