Translator: StackThatCoin Editor: Hitesh_
The movent of that barbarian beast warrior was extrely fast. With a single punch, he had killed a guard. In the next second, he sent out two punches toward Old Devil and Lord Fla.
Both old devils were indulging in the fit and silky smooth bodies of the barbarian girls. Only when the guard was killed and his blood and flesh spilled on their bodies were they roused and realized sothing was happening. However, it was too late. The heavy punches from that beast warrior approached them like two heavy battering rams.
Both of them cried out in shock. Lord Fla’s response was slightly faster. He hurriedly climbed up from the girl’s body, swinging both his arms backward and defending himself from the punch. Due to the suddenness of it, he couldn’t counter attack with sufficient force. The heavy punch of barbarian beast warrior slamd onto his palms, making him cry out in misery and sending him flying over a hundred feet away. His head smashed right into a huge rock.
“My palms!” As if just crushed by a steamroller, both of Lord Fla’s palms had beco twisted like a chicken’s feet. The skin and muscles on his palms looked like they had exploded, and blood kept rushing out from the broken part, revealing so broken bones underneath.
While Lord Fla was crying out in misery and pain over his palms, the Old Devil was suffering an even greater pain.
No matter whether it was Lord Fla or Old Devil, both of them had cultivated with evil skills, and they had both reached the Embryonic Breath tier of the Xiantian realm by using external forces. Therefore, both of them had ssy internal energies and weak foundations. Their overall strength was weaker than other, purer Embryonic Breath tier Xiantian realm cultivators. Their corporeal body hadn’t quenched to the supposed level of Embryonic Breath tier, and the speed of their internal energy circulation was even weaker than so ‘ridian Cultivating’ tier Xiantian realm warriors.
Old Devil could only sense a foul breeze approaching him from behind. He was right in the middle of forcibly absorbing the Qi of barbarian girls, so how could he have had enough ti to stop and turn around to defend himself? By the ti the attack had arrived, he had barely removed himself from the girl’s body and concentrated a little bit of internal energy on his back to protect himself.
With a deep thudding noise, Old Devil was sent flying two hundred feet away. The furious punch had exploded at his back like a bomb, tearing apart his skin and muscles. His spine had broken into at least three parts. Although he was a cultivator of the Embryonic Breath tier of the Xiantian realm, he was destined to beco a disabled man with the spine broken into pieces.
The Old Devil lay on the ground, crying out painfully. He was scratching and pushing frantically on the ground. However, since his spine was broken, he had lost all feeling below his chest. No matter how much strength he used, he still couldn’t get himself off the ground. The Old Devil, who had killed countless innocent lives, had finally tasted fear, “Save , Old Fla, save ! Marquis, please save , please!”
Lord Fla had his palms severely injured and was busy applying dicated paste to them. Therefore, when he heard the Old Devil’s miserable scream, he simply ignored him.
Liu Suifeng couldn’t allow an Embryonic Breath tier of Xiantian level cultivator, who his family worshipped, to die like this. He quickly got up and tried to find so guards and ask them to save the Old Devils, but the barbarian beast warrior had spotted Liu Suifeng, who was clad in a golden helt and a luxurious shirt.
“Father! Mother! Sister!” The beast warrior looked up into the sky and roared. Then he punched forward and forced back eight of the strongest hanger-ons of Liu Suifeng. After that, he sprinted in the direction of Liu Suifeng with both eyes turning bloodshot. Easily evading two longswords that were trying to slash his body into half, this beast warrior grabbed the heads of two of Liu Suifeng’s personal guards and squeezed them into clumps of blood and bones. The next second, he kicked Liu Suifeng.
Liu Suifeng scread and hurriedly fell back, but his speed couldn’t match that of a beast warrior. Luckily, Liu Suifeng managed to pull the majority of his body back before the beast warrior struck. But, there was a small part of his body, which had grown bigger and was still standing straight up, that was still in range. The toe of the beast warrior hit dead on, smashing this little brother of Liu Suifeng into a clump of blood.
“Oh, my mother!” Liu Suifeng cried out in extre pain. His face started turning green, and he imdiately jumped around while holding his crotch.
The barbarian beast warrior roared angrily and said, “Fuck your mother!” Then, he moved like a black whirlwind, roaring while making his way towards Liu Suifeng.
All the guards brought by Liu Suifeng and Lu Quyuan rushed up and attacked this barbarian beast warrior without considering their own safety. But this beast warrior was like a real tiger in human form; he had a massive strength and was extrely fast. He even injured two Embryonic Breath tier old devils with a sneak attack. How could these guards handle such a threat so easily?
Especially when this beast warrior roared, his roar was like dozens of tigers roaring out at the sa ti. The incredibly loud roar had shaken these guards and sent an endless buzzing sound through their ears, making them lose their balance. They just couldn’t attack the enemy effectively.
Finally, sothing even more terrifying happened. Right when dozens of peak Houtian realm hanger-ons were attacking this beast warrior, the shadowy tiger behind him beca condensed, looking up into the sky and letting out a silent roar. All the grasses and flowers within thousand feet started to rattle, even though there was no breeze. Weeds that had grown on the rooftops were sent flying away in all directions.
These dozens of peak Houtian realm hanger-ons dropped their weapons at the sa ti and stared at the shadowy tiger with extrely fearful expressions. They covered their ears with both hands but could not stop blood from rushing out. The silent roar of this shadowy tiger was resonating in these guard’s minds. It seed like it might even shatter their souls.
Seeing no one could defeat this beast warrior, Yan Bugui decided to finally strike.
“Why are you guys just standing around? Round him up and shoot him with your crossbows!”
Yan Bugui shouted out loud, and brought a sense of order back to those panicky guards. He drew out a longsword from his back as his eyes seed to start glowing. A long howl of a wolf ca from his back as a faded figure of a green wolf made its appearance behind Yan Bugui’s back. As a result, Yan Bugui sprinted forward at an incredible speed. At the sa ti, he swung the longsword in his hand, thrusting toward the barbarian beast warrior ferociously.
Lu Chengfeng shouted out in amazent, “So, Yan Bugui is a beast warrior too!”
The barbarian beast warrior let out a shrill howl, then he roared, “Father! Mother! Sister! All of you, die!”
Striking out with both arms, this barbarian beast warrior sent dozens of punches and kicks towards Yan Bugui like a raging thunderstorm. The ground shook when the barbarian beast warrior jumped up and landed back on the ground due to his massive weight and the forces he generated, launching tiny rocks a few feet up in the air from the ground.
Yan Bugui lowered his body and began to swing the sword in his hand. Every slash of his sword generated a gleam of light. Multiple sword lights were unleashed in quick succession, which were like endless lightning strikes that slashed through dark clouds, thrusting continuously towards the vital points of the barbarian beast warrior.
The barbarian beast warrior possessed a strength without rival, and his speed was fast as well. Although Yan Bugui’s strength was weaker than the barbarian’s, his speed was much faster. Both n were like two crazily spinning whirlwinds that swept through the village, destroying nearly half of the village within the blink of an eye. Whenever the punches of the barbarian beast warrior arrived, a wooden house would explode into pieces. Wherever Yan Bugui’s sword light slashed across, the wooden house and even the herbs growing in the field would be sliced into pieces.
Suddenly, a few guards of Liu Suifeng let out loud shouts at the sa ti.
Yan Bugui imdiately fell back when he heard the shouts. In the next second, those guards pointed their nine-bolt crossbow toward the barbarian beast warrior and pulled the triggers.
A total of thirty-six pure steel bolts were shot from a distance of less than twenty feet. Although the reaction of the barbarian beast warrior was fast, he simply had no way of evading these powerful bolts at such a short distance. Eighteen bolts managed to hit the barbarian beast warrior’s body, piercing through his strong muscles and coming out the other side with eighteen streams of blood, finally nailing themselves on the village fences.
The deadly poison on the arrowhead soon took effect. He started to tremble, and then the dark skin of barbarian began to turn a dark green color.
“You have killed all the people of my tribe!” The barbarian beast warrior remained standing at the sa spot with his body trembling violently. Then, he continued roaring, “I curse you, in the na of Mountain Spirit, I curse you! All of you will die within this forest, your souls will be devoured by the Mountain Spirit and you shall perish in the eternal darkness!”
Yan Bugui placed his longsword back into the scabbard, stared into the face of barbarian beast warrior and let out a cold laugh while saying, “There are no Spirits. All of those Spirits that you barbarians worship, they are all fake.”
The barbarian beast warrior roared angrily, trying to strike Yan Bugui with a punch. However, the deadly poison had spread across every part of his body, including his heart. Therefore, as he raised up his fist, his body beca stiff and fell to the ground.
The faded shadow of the tiger standing behind the barbarian suddenly beca concentrated. It gazed at Yan Bugui for so ti, then it looked into the sky and let out a silent roar. A bright ring of light appeared around its body, and countless tiny bits of amber flew out from the barbarian’s body, slowly rging with the tiger’s body.
Yan Bugui let out a cruel smile and said, “I can’t let this happen. You were killed by soone. If your soul is rged with this beast soul and both your souls escape from the cycle of reincarnation, you might turn into a devil soul a couple of years later. At that ti, we’ll have a big problem on our hands!”
He quickly walked in front of the barbarian beast warrior and pressed his palm on the tiger’s forehead. In a low voice, he started to read out so scripts.
“All souls are from the sa root. Heroic soul of the mountain, this is not a place you should stay. In the na of the Mother of All Souls, I command you to leave now.”
A bright green light shot out from Yan Bugui’s palm, rging into the body of the shadowy tiger.
The shadowy tiger shattered imdiately. The small dots of red light were dancing in the night breeze, making it seem as if countless fireflies had suddenly appeared within the village. Soon they flew to where Wu Qi and the others were standing.
Yan Bugui breathed out a sigh of relief and said, “It’s finally done.”
After these red dots had been pushed by the night breeze into the forest, they kept floating for a few thousand feet. They then faded and could barely be made out with the naked eye. At that ti, Wu Qi unleashed his water vapor into surrounding area, attempting to sense their whereabouts.
That was a pure soul energy which had lost all its mories. Yan Bugui had shattered them into the most basic and pure soul particles with a secret skill.
Wu Qi suddenly recalled the mory from when he was in the Great Universal Dinsional Portal. He instinctively took a deep breath, then circulated his Qi and silently activated his Hand of Web.
Water vapor had filled the surrounding area, and soon, more than 80% of the soul particles were pulled toward Wu Qi. Viewed through Wu Qi’s divine senses, the huge amount of water vapor started to spin extrely fast, and all these soul particles were absorbed into his body by the vortex in his divine senses.
In just the ti of few breaths, the strength of Wu Qi’s soul had quadrupled. Now, even with his eyes closed, he could easily sense everything within a hundred feet. Whether it was the swaying grass or leaves that danced in the breeze, or those few bugs hiding underneath the soil near a tree, everything was extrely clear. It was as if all that was right in front of his eyes.
The internal energy within his body was rapidly compressed. A few important acupuncture points along the twelve ridians were broken through by this ‘press’ of energy. Water vapor, which could been seen with the naked eye, started to slowly gather around Wu Qi’s body.
Lu Chengfeng stared blankly at Wu Qi, his face trembling and twisting as if he had just seen a ghost.
Wu Qi stared back at Lu Chengfeng and gave him a smile. With both hands on his back, he said, “After watching the fight between the two beast warriors, I had a mont of inspiration and broke through to the ‘Respiration’ tier of the Xiantian realm!”
Zhang Hu and Hu Wei, who were standing under a tree, were so shocked they almost bumped their heads into the tree.
