Tornado Stance! Mysterious Wind Palm!
A cold light flashed in Zhao Feng’s eyes as an azure light appeared on his palm which spun faster and faster and finally it flew at the head of the Golden Beak Eagle King. At that moment, his body seemed to be a tornado, angry and strong.
Shuuuu…
His Mysterious Wind Palm hit the wound where the Eagle King had been struck by General Heng.
Tok! Tok! Tok…
The original injury became bigger and bigger.
Blaaam!
The head of the Golden Beak Eagle King had split into pieces and the enormous figure fell onto the ground.
Teng!
Zhao Feng jumped into the air with blood of the Eagle King still dripping from his palm.
The rise and fall seemed to state the winner between Zhao Feng and the Eagle King.
“The Golden Beak Eagle King has been killed!”
“Who’s the youth that killed the Golden Beak Eagle King?”
Waves of chattering spread among the nearby watching cultivators. Zhao Feng immediately became the center of attention.
“Brother Zhao Feng, well done!” Ye Linyun as well as Third Guard praised him.
General Heng had also recovered from the shock. “Hahaha! Good job! You’ve done a great job in killing the Golden Beak Eagle King, but there’s suspicions of you snatching the battle points due to the last hit.”
Snatching battle points?
Zhao Feng thought about it and realized that he had acted on instinct before. At that time, it was better to exchange a blow for a blow instead of dodging and running away. But in the eyes of other people, Zhao Feng was a risk taker who not only didn’t run away, he had tried to earn more battle points.
No matter what was said, Zhao Feng still played a huge role in killing the Golden Beak Eagle King as without his archery skills, the Golden Beak Eagle King wouldn’t have been attracted down to the ambush area anyways. And the person who killed the Golden Beak Eagle King was also Zhao Feng.
“The rest of the birds are easier to deal with since the Golden Beak Eagle King is dead,” General Heng smiled as he appraised Zhao Feng.
Without the lead of the Eagle King, the rest of the birds in the sky were like loose sand. As for the beasts on the ground, the casualties of the humans would only increase as time went on.
Zhao Feng sat cross-legged on the back lines as he recovered, while the others such as Ye Linyun thought he had been injured. But, Zhao Feng had learned the Returning Breath Technique, which meant that his Inner Strength was at least twice as thick as those of the same rank.
“Flowing Wind Stance…Tornado Stance…Mysterious Wind Palm…”
The pictures of these three moves appeared in his mind. Flowing Wind Stance had been merged into his speed skills while the Tornado Stance had been merged into his offensive palm skill.
Without knowing, Zhao Feng’s understanding of the Tornado Stance had reached seventy-plus percent. It was so good that under both the insights he had gained from the Flowing Wind Stance and the Mysterious Wind Palm, he had also understood over sixty percent of Mysterious Wind Palm, which meant that Zhao Feng’s Mysterious Wind Palm was quite similar to the girl’s from that day.
The move just now was the combination of Tornado Stance with Mysterious Wind Palm.
“This brat got another easy kill!” Feng Hanyue looked at Zhao Feng with shock in his eyes.
At the last kill mission, Zhao Feng had also snatched the points for killing the bandit leader and this time he was even more crazy, he had taken the kill for the Golden Beak Eagle King from the mouths of eighth and ninth ranks.
In many people’s eyes, Zhao Feng’s acts were another example of taking the battle points of others.
“That guy killed a peak tier deadly beast,” Bei Moi’s mouth twitched.
From the start of the battle till now, Bei Moi had been fighting a peak tier deadly beast and he was even ambushed by the Golden Beak Eagle King. Under all those fights, he still couldn't kill his opponent while the new disciple, Zhao Feng had done so.
Kill! Kill!
The morale of the Guanjun troops increased as they managed to push back the beast horde again and again.
Hu~
After digesting his insights, Zhao Feng stood back up. Just then, he had reached a greater height in understanding of Tornado Stance and Mysterious Wind Palm.
Furthermore, his cultivation had reached the late stages of the seventh rank.
Zhao Feng’s eyes scanned the waves of the beast horde and found that something was wrong. Soon, he found the answer.
“The attacks of the deadly beasts seem to be organized, the peak tier deadly beasts lead a large number of low tier deadly and wild beasts.”
Zhao Feng saw what was wrong. If he could see this, then the high levels of the Guanjun Palace could see it as well.
“Could this beast horde be planned?” Ye Linyun, General Heng and the others were all suspicious.
In the fight, Zhao Feng took out his Golden Stairs Bow and released arrow after arrow, taking down a large number of top tier deadly beasts. Suddenly, it became a beautiful view. Rays and rays of bright green light were sent out from the city hall and with each streak of light, a few beasts would die.
Zhao Feng’s Archer God’s Left Eye was being finely honed on this beast horde.
“Sir Zhao, can you become my master?” The younger archers were extremely excited.
Zhao Feng didn’t know what to say to that, and seeing that the beasts in the air didn’t have much of a threat left, he went outside of the city.
Star Finger! Mysterious Wind Palm!
Zhao Feng was like the wind which killed beasts without sound.
Plop! Plop…!
Every attack of his would find the flaws of deadly beasts and a number of corpses would be left behind wherever he went.
“This youth is terrifying!”
“He’s extremely good at close combat too!” The archers watching him exclaimed. Normally, if one’s forte was archery, their close combat skills weren’t very good. But Zhao Feng was a monster, not only were his archery skills good, his close combat skills were too!
“Zhao Feng’s potential isn’t any weaker than Bei Moi. But sadly, he’s only an outer disciple of Master and he won’t get all the core skills," Ye Linyun sighed and shook his head.
After killing for a long time, Zhao Feng felt a familiar cold aura.
Shua!
He opened his left eye and found that dozens of kilometers away, a hooded figure sat on top of a black bird. Under the hood, a pair of ice blue eyes could be seen.
It’s him!
Zhao Feng’s heart jumped, the figure was the one that he had seen that day inside the Sky Cloud Forest.
Raaaaaar~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Just at this moment, a terrifying roar sounded. The aura of the roar’s owner was many times stronger than that of the Golden Beak Eagle King. That one roar caused the hundreds of thousands of beasts to tremble in fear. At this moment, the peak tier deadly beasts stiffened as admiration and fear appeared in their eyes. The humans felt their hearts jump.
Peh! Peh! Peh…
What’s going on? Zhao Feng felt that his blood was trembling and the thumping sound came from his left eye again.
“What is this aura that surpasses peak tier deadly beasts?” Ye Linyun, Third Guard and General Heng’s voice were all trembling slightly.
A terrifying aura crushed towards the city and it made the hundreds of thousands of beasts bow down as if they were seeing their king…
Chapter 94 - Lord Tier Deadly Beast
The piercing howl silenced both the humans and beasts with the latter even kneeling on the ground as if they had seen a king. Far away in the midst of the beast horde, a path was formed.
“What is the thing that puts fear into peak tier deadly beasts...” The cultivators on top of the city wall focused on the path.
Bec
ause Zhao Feng had the best eyesight, he saw a pure black dog-type deadly beast walking towards them. The black dog was the size of a wolf at around 1.5 meters long, and small compared to the other beasts.
A dog?
Zhao Feng wanted to laugh, but he couldn’t. Every step the dog took would radiate a frightening aura, and when Zhao Feng’s eyes looked into the eyes of the pitch black dog, he felt like he was on fire.
“Could it be… a Lord Tier deadly beast!?” General Heng took in a cold breath as fear flashed through his eyes.
One had to know that General Heng was already at the peak ninth rank, and he was one of the strongest cultivators here.
Lord Tier Deadly Beast!
The faces of the cultivators turned white, they all knew the rumors about Lord Tier deadly beasts. Deadly beasts were split into low and high tier, and they were respectively comparable to Martial Artists and Martial Masters, but peak tier deadly beasts weren’t the highest ranked.
Above peak tier deadly beasts, there were some terrifying existences - Lord tier deadly beasts!
“The rumors say that a Lord tier deadly beast can destroy an entire country.” On top of the Guanjun Province City wall, a few of the cultivators were scared out of their wits.
Under the falling sun, hundreds of thousands of deadly and wild beasts bowed down, facing the Lord tier black dog as the latter slowly walked towards the city. Although the Lord tier deadly beast didn’t attack, it coldly glanced at the people and even such cultivators as General Heng and Ye Linyun at the ninth rank would tremble.
Under that one scan, the Lord tier deadly beast had confirmed who the strongest people among the cultivators were.
“Stop him!”
“Pass the information to Our Lord!”
A few silver figures appeared on top of a nearby tower.
Shua! Shua!
“Number One, Number Two, Number Four…,” Third Guard exclaimed.
At this moment, the first four of the Guanjun Corps had arrived, with First Guard leading them!
Ye Linyun took in a cold breath. First Guard was only half a step away from the Holy Martial Path.
Go!
The four silver figures jumped down and reached the Lord tier deadly beast in an instant.
First Guard, Second Guard, Third Guard, and Fourth Guard!
The strongest four of the Guanjun Corps formed a semicircle around the Lord tier deadly beast, stopping it.
“Cultivators of the ninth rank, go help…” General Heng gave the command solemnly.
He knew that the four Guards alone probably weren’t able to restrain the Lord tier deadly beast who could destroy an entire country.
Shua…shua…
Soon, another few cultivators of the ninth rank appeared. On top of the city wall, a few archers pulled their bows, Zhao Feng had taken out his Golden Stairs Bow and drawn it as well.
Wu...
The pitch black dog coldly scanned the humans on top of the city wall disdainfully, as if it had emotions.
“Sky Heavenly Death Net!”
The four great Guanjun Corpsmen turned into silver blurs, they held short blades and they sent a net of slices that enveloped the Lord tier deadly beast.
This Sky Heavenly Death Net had been performed by all four Guards, and the power of it surpassed normal Holy martial arts.
Even though Zhao Feng was far away, his heart jumped. He knew that if he fell into this Sky Heavenly Death Net, he wouldn’t be able to find any flaws even with his left eye. Normal cultivators of the ninth rank would instantly be ripped into shreds if they were trapped in it.
For tens of years, no one had ever escaped from this move of the four Guards and today, this killing move landed upon the Lord tier deadly beast.
Shu...shu...shu...shu...
The pitch black dog didn’t have anywhere to run nor dodge as the net surrounded it in every direction.
Wu...
A layer of black flames appeared on the dog and a terrifying aura swept around its surroundings.
Pah!
The Lord tier deadly beast randomly swiped with one paw and it instantly caused a black light a few meters long to appear. The simple swipe seemed to contain a deep martial art that had ripped open another dimension.
Craaaaak! The Sky Heavenly Death Net shattered.
Dang! Dang!
The weapons of both Second and Fourth Guard fell to the floor broken as blood leaked from their mouths. The expressions of First and Third Guard turned pale as their bodies stiffened.
Standing on top of the city wall, Zhao Feng’s heart clenched as he saw the swipe of the Lord tier deadly beast. Because in his eyes, the swipe seemed to be a martial art.
Deadly beasts know martial arts?
Maybe it was just Zhao Feng, but he felt that the move from the Lord tier deadly beast seemed similar to the Mysterious Wind Palm of the girl back in the canyon.
Shuuuu…!
The Lord tier deadly beast stomped on the ground and a layer of pitch blames flames was sent out in every direction as it shattered the ground.
"Dodge it!" First Guard exclaimed as he furiously slashed his blade at the black flames. The other Guards all did the same.
Heavenly Cloud Kill!
Slice of Doom!
General Heng, Ye Linyun and the other ninth ranks arrived and protected the four Guanjun Corpsmen. But the black flames of the Lord tier deadly beast were just too strong, it burned one’s skin before the flame even reached it.
“Ahhh…”
A cultivator of the ninth rank had his clothes set on fire, so he rolled on the ground trying to flatten it out. But no matter how hard he tried, it didn’t stop the flames and in no time, he became a burnt, blackened corpse. Not only that, Third Guard and Fourth Guard were also tarnished by the black flame.
“Forget me, run…” Fourth Guard screamed as he charged at the Lord tier deadly beast with his body on fire.
Craaak!
The Lord tier deadly beast swiped its claws and shattered Fourth Guard’s body.
“Third Guard!” the other people exclaimed. Third Guard, the overseer of the Sky Guards Battalion also had black flames appear on his arm.
Craack…
Third Guard clenched his teeth as he chopped off his own arm.
“Everyone retreat!” General Heng and First Guard called.
Zhao Feng was shocked as he stood on the city wall. Just then, he had used his Golden Stairs Bow and fired a few arrows, but they had all turned into dust before they even came close to the Lord tier deadly beast.
"Run! Everyone retreat!"
The ten ninth ranks couldn’t even block a casual swipe of the Lord tier beast.
“The difference is too great…” Bei Moi, Nan Gongfan and the other disciples looked on in fear and they pulled away from the Lord tier deadly beast.
Wu…
The Lord tier deadly beast howled and a few peak tier deadly beasts appeared behind it.
“He’s calling his troops to attack!” Zhao Feng’s heart jumped and he could almost see the destruction of Guanjun Province City.
The legend of a Lord tier deadly beast destroying a country was just a legend, was it going to happen in the Cloud Country though?
Just as the cultivators were in despair, the sound of wind came from behind.
“Which bastard dares come into my territory?” a deep voice sounded from midair.
Souuu…
A silver light flashed through the air.
“That’s…”
Zhao Feng’s left eye managed to catch the image of a middle-aged man wearing silver-gold robes flying through the air like a god.
In just an instant, the man had moved two hundred meters.
“Flying? Can humans really fly?” Zhao Feng recognized that person, Lord Guanjun!
A gold and silver-robed middle-aged man stopped midair in front of the Lord tier deadly beast.
“Illusio
n Rippling Execution!” Lord Guanjun waved his hands as a silver light appeared.
Instantly, a sound as loud as thunder appeared and the eight-meter-long silver light stabbed heavily towards the Lord tier deadly beast.
Wu!
Wariness appeared in the black dog’s eyes as it swiped its paw of black flame at the silver light.
Boom…
The frenzied wind blew up everything in a twenty-meter radius and it left a deep hole where the forces collided. At the same time, the nearby peak tier deadly beasts howled in fear and agony as they were turned into dust…
Chapter 95 - Hooded Figure Appears
“Lord Guanjun!”
“My Lord!”
A limitless number of shouts came from the city wall. Ye Linyun, General Heng, Third Guard, and the other ninth ranks loosened up.
Everyone looked at that stately figure with excitement, admiration, and respect. The man looked like a god, with a silver glow surrounding him as he clashed with the Lord tier deadly beast in the blink of an eye.
The energy waves instantly killed the nearby peak tier deadly beasts, shocking everyone.
Wu~~~~
Bloody gashes appeared on the pitch black dog as it looked at Lord Guanjun warily.
“Good! Lord Guanjun will kill the Lord tier deadly beast!”
The human cultivator’s expressions were of despair turned to joy and expectation. In their eyes, Lord Guanjun was a god who could defeat anyone in the world.
Zhao Feng let out a breath as he stood on top of the city wall. Just then, he had made preparations to run if all came to the worst and his left eye had analyzed the best path to take.
At this moment, Zhao Feng’s left eye scanned Lord Guanjun and the Lord tier deadly beast. Without a doubt, their power had surpassed the nine ranks of the Martial Path and entered the Holy Martial Path.
Shua! Lord Guanjun descended from the air and he sent a wave of force towards his surroundings.
“Lord Guanjun has surpassed the nine ranks of the Martial Path and using his power, he can use the wind to help him fly momentarily,” Zhao Feng concluded.
Flying, that was the dream of limitless people. Although cultivators of the Holy Martial Path couldn’t fly, the power still made those of the ninth rank look up at them in awe.
