"Mhm." The other mbers of the alliance agreed with what Angus said. Now, killing Dylan who was originally their main objective suddenly beca secondary with the appearance of Rian.
"It's decided. We shall kill Dylan Ford!" Angus announced the conclusion and lead the leaders to the fort.
...
"Those fucking bastards!!" Rian was thoroughly angered when he heard their conversation. Dylan held a really significant place in his heart. He was like an elder brother to him. Hearing these sect leaders plotting to kill him, birthed pure rage in his heart.
"I am going to kill them all!" This pure rage eventually harnessed cold-blooded killing intent! He no longer cared about his injuries, he just wanted to kill these wretched bastards who dare attempt to kill Dylan. He did not even care if he had to use his bloodline strength to do it.
Before this, Rian wanted to rest for just ten minutes at most because with the regenative ability of his body. His wounds would be quickly healed in that short span of ti.
"Huh? M-my body is heating up!!" Unknowingly, his fury, killing intent and excessive desire for power actually stimulated his bloodline!
For the past 2 weeks, he ingested and absorbed different treasures that were beneficial to him according to his inherited mories. He followed the instructions within these mories and ate these treasures at certain intervals. He thought that he was doing everything right as he could feel his bloodline excited and the power within it beca slightly violent than before.
However, he was unable to fully take advantage of the dicinal effects of these treasures because he was lacking one thing: the stimulus of a life and death battle! As the battle escalates, his true potential is gradually being squeezed out of him, helping him familiarize the power of his bloodline!
The sa also applies with the remnant dicinal effects of the things he ate. The more he fought, the more his body could assimilate the effects of those treasures! Now, his body was reacting with the dicinal essence and pushed his body to its limits!
However, despite this, it should not have pushed his body to undergo premature second evolution. But, it seed as if his body responded when it sensed his wrath and thirst for power which gave the final to push him to evolve!
His heart pumped a vicious amount of blood which increased his blood pressure by at least three tis! With the increase in blod flow, his body temperature rose like it has no end!
Steam was actually emanated out from his body! The shocking thing was that the grievous wounds that Rian had were healing at a freakishly fast rate! It was not only that, the grass underneath him was actually turning into ash!
"Argh!" Rian closed his eyes and groaned from the intense pain. He wanted to scream as loud as he could but he could only let out a small groan. He no longer had any strength to support himself and powerlessly fell on the ground.
...
Near the fort, there were thirty or so n who was spread out and looked as if they were trying to find soone. They all had grim expressions on their faces while they were searching for sothing. Around them piles of human bodies could be seen scattered around them, the corpses were either headless or charred.
"Coward! Co out and fight us! Are you even a man?!" A person shouted angrily.
"That's right! I thought you were so gallant youth trying to save a damsel in distress. It turns out that you are actually nothing but a spineless wimp!" Another henchman mockingly sneered.
"Brothers, you don't have to expect much on a boy who is hiding and running away with his tail between his legs! Hahaha!" A large nosed person heartily laughed while insulting Dylan.
"Hahahaha!" The others laughed at the large nosed person's insults. They felt a bit of pleasure mocking Dylan who was hiding sowhere.
Suddenly, a clapping sound was heard from who knows where.
*Clap* *Clap* *Clap*
" You must be thinking that you could outsmart by taunting with these words? How naive! Do you really think that any sane person would attack when it is no different than courting death? I am in awe with the level of wits that you lot possess." A voice filled with indifference and mockery resounded.
"You!!" His words directly hit them at their sore spots.
"What's more is that you even have the nerve to call a coward when you adults are gagning up on a youth who is only at the Spirit Gathering Realm? Despite that, you still have the audacity to call yourselves man? Laughable! How shaless can you all get?" The voice continued to speak in a condescending tone.
The faces of the henchn were twisted and black from his words. All of them were enraged to the point that they nearly vomitted blood.
"I'll kill you!!" There was even a person who could no longer control himself and foolishly charged at a direction where he thought the voice might have co from. He even released his avatar which was a long spear and ran forward.
"Wait!" The scholarly man among them cried out!
"Graaah!" But to no avail, the person mindlessly continued his pursuit disappearing in their line of sight.
*Boom* *Tzzzk*
Several monts later, an explosion was heard along with flashes of lightning. From afar, they could see the shadows that were created at the sa mont the bright explosion was heard.
A spear wielding person attacked a person above him with an explosive Battle Technique but the person seed to be holding ball of lightning and used it to attack. The ball of lightning actually extended and turned into a blade and pierced the chest of the spear wielding person!
After that scene, the shadows disappeared along with the light of the explosion dying out.
"Nooo!" But the grunts knew that the spear wielding person who was their enraged comrade that aimlessly charged was killed by the person who was mocking them!
Most of them imdiately released their avatars and marched to the direction where their spear wielding comrade die. But when they arrived, the only thing they could see was the body of their colleague whose heart was pierced!
"Co out, Dylan Ford! How dare you kill my brothers!" A hairy person who was carrying a mace roared with his eyes bloodshot.
"You actually think I would stay there? Idiots. This is excatly the reason why a junior like could kill nearly half of your scum group. It is because you are all idiotic beyond compare." The person who was mocking them was Dylan who was currently hiding.
Yes! The were the henchn of the sect leaders that were fighting Dylan were nearly reduced to half through Dylan's efforts alone. Right now, there were only 29 of them remaining! In a span of 10 minutes, he was able to reduce the remaining forty one by killing 12 more people!
When Dylan was intercepted by the assault team, he was shocked when he saw that all of them had attack-type avatars which were either weapons or ferocious animals. Not only that, there were two assault teams! Both of which had at least 10 mbers. Thus, he did not hold anything back anymore and started to use his Thundercloud Monarch Art and Tyrranical Thunderbolt Clouds Art!
He increased his mobility through the use of Zooming Thunder and broke through the encirclent, with the use of Sweeping Thunder and Thunder Break! He also used the King of the Land to slow his opponents down. After which he used, another one of his techniques, the Lightning Blade to deal and fend off the attacks of his foes.
The Lightning Blade was inspired from Sasuke's Lightning Blade(Chidori) in the ani series, Naruto. He was inspired by the flexibility of how Sasuke used this technique. It can be used as close-range and mid-range attack depending on how the situation arises. Not to ntion, that it has excellent penetrating and slashing capabilities.
In coordination with this skill, he used the terrifying penetration of the Piercing Thunder and the Wings of Lightnings to create spontaneous and extrely fast attacks to kill his opponents. For his surprise attacks, he used the ntal Blade to sneakily incapacitate his opponents and kill them with his Half-Moon Slash. Several occassions, he also used Shrouding Thunder and Thundercloud Wave to defend with his opponents joint attacks.
With his judgent, he may not have used it perfectly due to his lack of battle experiece, but he was still able to execute the attacks at the most opportune monts during the fight.
Using everything he had, he was able to succesfully escape with his life intact and still slay 11 of the 21 n who attacked him!
But it was not without a price, Dylan had to endure being pierced by two swords in his torso and a spear on his back. Each of which was at least embedded a few inches deep. His left shoulder bone was destroyed by an axe-type avatar and the right part of his ribcage was almost shattered by an attack of a mace-type avatar.
His left arm had suffered minor fractures from absorbing the brunt of the attacks with the shield. He also had several wounds from the claws of several animal types of beasts.
He may be severely injured all over but he was still able to successfully keep his life despite facing so many cultivators alone!
He had no problem with his energy reserves with the amazing capacity of the Supre Core but he still needed ti to recuperate and heal his injuries.
After that, the group knew how extrely powerful and skillful Dylan was using his Battle Techniques.
It has been a few minutes since he was able to escape from the encirclent. He started retrieving herbs from his Storage Rings which he knew could accelerate his rate of recovery by several folds. With Earth Rank Herbs at his disposal, he could significatly recover from his injuries if he had at least twenty minutes and fully recover in just one hour!
Right now, he was just bidding ti for his recovery. Dylan planned inwardly as he was wrapping his wounds with bandages to reduce bleeding, 'I need to keep them within the vicinity of the fort so that I could prevent them from going to where Rian and the leaders are fighting. Just ten more minutes... By then, I can have the confidence to fight with them again.'
*Riiing*
Suddenly, his spiritual transmission tablet in his storage ring actually rang! Dylan cursed as soon as he heard the call. He knew right away that the call gave away his location! "Shit! Why now?!"
It was also the next mont that he heard the delighted voices of his pursuers, "The strange sound ca from this direction! It must be him!"
"There are only a few people who knows the contact of my Spiritual Transmission Tablet! Just who could it be!" He retrieved his Spiritual Transmission Tablet in rage and even had the urge to throw away.
But when he saw the na of the caller, it was actually the captain of the Ford Protection Squad!!
The anger he felt a mont ago disappeared in a flash and was replaiced with a smile of rejoice! He quickly entered the call and heard, "Sir, we are appraoching your location in fifteen seconds! Please do your best to escape from their encirclent!"
"I will!" Dylan excitdly replied and abruptly ended tye call as he stored his Spiritual Transmission Tablet.
Behind him, he sensed the presence of his pursuers and even heard soone scream, "There he is! Get him!"
When he heard those words, he did not nother to look back yet he smiled. He did not use Zooming Thunder or Wings of Lightning to escape from them instead he just leapt from one thick tree branch of the Illusion Isolating Trees to the other!
The henchn group used their movents techniques and was moving closer and closer to Dylan each second that passed. They all laughed triumphantly, thinking that Dylan no longer has anymore spirit energy within him which was equal to him being sentenced to death.
"That's right! Run while you still can!"
"You are going to die in the most painful way possible kid!!"
"Hahaha, look at you kid! Where is the arrogance you showed earlier?!"
Suddenly, Dylan stopped jumping onntree branches. He looked back and smiled at them.
That smile gave them chills and a bad premonition. His mouth opened while maintaining that smile and uttered, "My arrogance? I will show it to you all through them."
"Them?" The grunts blankly blinked and beca wary of their surroundings.
Suddenly, nine shadows appeared out of nowhere! The mont they appeared, they attacked Dylan's pursuer's and easily overpowered his opponents. They were the Ford Protection Squad who ca out just in the nick of ti!
"Die, scums!" The leader of the Ford Protection Squad created a battle cry while materializing his avatar and releasing the strength of a 25th level Origin Foundation Expert! Behind him, a giant black tiger with red stripes appeared! Thrusting forward his long sword, he lead his team to slaughter those who hard Dylan and kidnapped Mary!
"Die, scums!" His team also followed his lead and scream out the battle cry while they exuded their auras to its' limit and released their avatars in synchronization!
*Boom* *Boom* *Boom* *Clang* *Clang* *Clang*
Screams of despair were soon heard along with the clash of weapons and Battle Techniques.
"Nooo!"
"Ahhhh!"
"Help!"
"So powerful! They are elites of the Premier Hall indeed. Each one of them could easily crush 2 of these grunts!" Dylan smiled brightly when he saw
Just as Dylan was thanking the heavens with his luck, he saw sothing which made his eyes have a look of disbelief. It was three large figures with three heads and four arms each! They were the demon warriors which was controlled by the eighteen sect leaders!
"This can't be... Why are they here...? What about Rian? Where is he?!" Dylan blankly looked at the demon warriors who appeared to be targetting him.
