253: Chapter 253: The First Strike after Fusion 253: Chapter 253: The First Strike after Fusion Xiao Zhan smiled and signaled that everything was fine.
Then he said, “Let’s go.
Now that we’ve determined its location, we shouldn’t delay and deal with it before it causes any havoc.”
“Yes!”
The team answered in unison and imdiately set out following Xiao Zhan towards the cave five kiloters away.
Five kiloters wasn’t considered a long distance, especially not for a team like theirs endowed with abilities.
So, in less than ten minutes, they arrived at the entrance of the Demon Beast’s cave.
“Captain, where is the cave?
I can’t seem to find it,” a team mber said, eyes wide open, but failing to locate the cave entrance.
The confusion was shared among the others, who also couldn’t see the cave.
Xiao Zhan pointed to a slightly elevated area, “The cave is over there.
Our current direction is directly behind the cave entrance, making it invisible from here.”
Upon hearing this, everyone followed his pointing finger and indeed saw a small mound slightly protruding.
Vice Captain ng Fei said, “Captain, your ability is truly amazing, almost like a satellite from the heavens.
No, even more incredible than that.
Satellites can be blocked by certain things, but your ability is like a full coverage with no dead angles.”
After hearing such praise, the other team mbers nodded in agreent.
Xiao Zhan’s skill was indeed a bit monstrous.
Not to ntion anything else, just taking the recent discovery of the cave entrance for example.
If it were them, they probably wouldn’t have noticed the cave until they were much closer.
And by that ti, the Demon Beast would have already noticed them.
What they would face then would be another brutal battle.
Thus, they truly had a lot of respect for Xiao Zhan now.
Of course, they had respect for him before as well.
But the previous respect was based on superficial status and reputation.
The admiration now was for Xiao Zhan’s demonstrated abilities, which inspired their respect.
Following that, Xiao Zhan began allocating manpower and arranging the battle strategy.
The plan was simple: lure the Demon Beast out, with Xiao Zhan, the strongest among them, as the main attacker to confront the beast head-on, while the others would attack from the sides with the intent to resolve the issue right there.
After the arrangent was set, Xiao Zhan gave the command, and everybody began to execute their tasks separately.
At this ti, ng Fei hesitated and then spoke up, “Captain, how about I take the front to restrain it while you deliver the lethal blow.
I am also a Fourth Grade Spirit Master and can handle the power of a Fourth Grade Demon Beast.”
Under normal circumstances, when humans and Demon Beasts of the sa grade engage in combat singly, ninety-nine percent of the ti, the Demon Beast wins.
Xiao Zhan did not understand why he suddenly suggested this but still shook his head and refused, “Alright, just follow my orders.
Leave this to .”
“Then you must be careful, Captain.”
The concern in the tone was sincere.
The others also showed anxious expressions.
This was a normal reaction, but Xiao Zhan felt there was sothing odd about it.
He stopped, then stared at ng Fei unblinkingly before looking at the others.
He said, “You all seem to be preoccupied along the way.
Is there sothing you’re hiding from ?”
Seeing Xiao Zhan pressing the matter, ng Fei sighed inwardly, no longer holding back.
“Captain, we previously had an encounter with this Demon Beast.
It’s incredibly fierce, far beyond any ordinary Fourth Grade Demon Beast.”
“Our previous captain died at its claws.
The wound on its front left leg was left by the forr captain.”
Xiao Zhan heard this and thought it was sothing significant, only to find out it was this matter.
It seed that the death of the forr captain indeed had a psychological impact on them.
“Don’t worry, it’s just a Fourth Grade Demon Beast.
It’s no match for ,” Xiao Zhan said with a smile.
Then he turned and ran towards the cave entrance.
Seeing this, the other team mbers could only suppress their worries and take their positions, each doing what they had to do.
The Vice Captain appeared even more concerned, simply hoping that nothing would happen to Xiao Zhan.
Not to ntion, Xiao Zhan’s presence here ant that he was destined to beco a key figure in the Northern Army.
If sothing were to happen here, ng Fei could not bear the responsibility, both publicly and privately.
Although Xiao Zhan had been assigned as team leader from above, ng Fei was also admonished to take good care of him.
He tried to stay as close to Xiao Zhan as possible, ready to act if Xiao Zhan faced any danger.
The team quickly took their positions.
Xiao Zhan calmly arrived at the entrance of the cave, releasing his perception.
The Demon Beast inside imdiately sensed him, its fur standing on end, limbs pressed to the ground, warily fixing its gaze on the entrance.
A man and a beast, one inside, the other outside the cave, were wary of each other.
Neither could see the other, but both knew the other had ill intentions!
In Xiao Zhan’s hand, the Death Demon Scythe began to materialize, a small black sickle appearing in the palm of his hand, wrapped in swirling black Death Aura, spinning in his palm like a wheel.
As it spun, the sickle grew from small to large, eventually transforming into its final form—a nearly three-ter-long Death Demon Scythe.
The entire process took less than a second.
But the effect it created was incredibly cool.
The team mbers nearby saw this scene and imdiately showed looks of envy and admiration, “Is this how an SSS Artifact Spirit makes an entrance?
It’s so cool.”
The others nodded as well.
They wished their Artifact Spirits could have such a stylish appearance.
Unfortunately, the level of their Artifact Spirits was too low, so they did not possess such an imposing entrance.
Xiao Zhan looked at the Death Demon Scythe in his hand and couldn’t help but feel admiration.
Compared to before the fusion with the Death Seal, the Scythe now had a higher quality, purer color, and the Other Shore Flower carved on its shaft was more vividly lifelike.
The blade’s cold light glinted, unashadly flaunting its sharpness, as if proclaiming to the world, “Co at if you dare.”
As for the noticeable red bloodline at the edge, it was even more vividly sinister now, looking real as if it had just harvested from soone’s neck.
Just a single glance could make one feel as if their heart was being clenched, causing a half-beat skip of breath.
Xiao Zhan thought that if there was a level beyond SSS in the Artifact Spirit Level, then the current Death Demon Scythe would definitely belong to that surpassing SSS category.
With a casual swing, the Scythe imdiately drew a line of death through the air, seemingly splitting the atmosphere and revealing the void within.
Unmistakably powerful!
Holding it, Xiao Zhan felt more powerful than ever.
His aura, driven by the Death Demon Scythe, naturally diffused outward.
The Demon Beast inside the cave seed to sense Xiao Zhan’s power.
With no way to retreat, after a few seconds of stalemate, it could no longer hold back.
With a low growl, it lunged towards Xiao Zhan outside the cave!
