Ace Of Terrans

Chapter 692 Yin Blood (2)

Shi Lang and the two men rushed over to help others, the situation was under control, and the terran did not down the ability of these people, but he was pushing for time. He needed to finish dealing with these beasts to breach the illusion array with his team.

The terran had been transformed by the demonic cultivators, and this was helpful for them. The other groups saw Shi Lang approach them, and they were shocked. This momentary daze caused the demon beasts to close in on them.

Thankfully, Shi Lang was watching the entire scene from a distance. He quickly took out his sniper rifle, loaded the bullet, and squeezed the trigger. The bullet flew across the void and hit the target square’s eyes.

Shi Lang put in another bullet and began shooting at the demon as he moved forward. The bullets were charged with lighting energy and aimed at only one spot. The terran commanded, “All of you attack the legs of this guy. If you cannot blind it, immobilization is the next best thing.”

The men of the mercenary group were injected with adrenaline when they saw such a display of courage. Shi Lang was moving ahead while shooting, and they all followed his instructions. Various attacks were directed to the legs of the beast.

The demon beast was overwhelmed, and its movements became more reckless. Shi Lang confirmed his conjecture the beast was being controlled. He reached closer, switched his rifle for his spear, and engaged in hand-to-hand combat with the creature. The forest echoed with painful wails as the demon beast fell to the effort of the humans.

All this happened within a few minutes. The people realized the difference between them and Shi Lang. They were awed by this; similarly, they felt confident in themselves.

Shi Lang had directly shared half of their burden. It was his realm, but how he applied his skills shocked them. He took down the second Demonic Beast in five minutes. This was because he was holding back and passing instructions to the mercenaries.

They all understood that his strength was not limited to his skills but also his mind. The terran finished dealing with the beasts and said, “Follow me, and prepare yourself.”

The people did not know what he meant, but they all charged behind him in a single queue. He said, “All of you hold on to each other’s hands.”

They were surprised, but they still held their hands. Shi Lang told Xing, “Do not struggle, and do not scream.”

Everyone in the queue heard it, but they did not know what Shi Lang meant, as Xing thought the young man was aware of the nature of this illusion array. However, the next moment, they were shocked.

The shock was not an emotion but the aftereffect of lightning coursing through their bodies. They all held their mouths as they twitched, but soon, they found that the anticipated illusion did not come. They stood in the distance and could look at the enemy camp completely.

Xing was eager to lean forward and move, but Shi Lang pulled him back. He said, “If you do not mind, can you give me a few hours?”

Xing raised his brow. The situation was critical. Every minute they spent here would prove the situation dangerous for their people. Shi Lang said, “It may sound selfish, but I am very close to breaking through in the next realm. This encounter was a chance for me to comprehend the Dao rules. I hope that you allow me to move alone. If you think that the enemy is going to harm the captive, then take action. I will not stop you from intervening.”

Bo Qingtan said, “One hour, they must expect us to come out of the illusion array after an hour, to them, we are still standing like puppets exhausting our spiritual energy. They will not attack us.”

Shi Lang nodded and said, “One hour is enough.”

Xing thought briefly and said, “Fine, one hour, but if they moved against the captives, then I am moving in with the rest.”

Shi Lang nodded, and then he took out a set of daggers from his space ring and vanished. He was going to kill everyone with lightning speed and stealth. These past few days, he has gained a complete understanding of the destruction lightning can cause. He has also gained insights into the healing of life aspect of the element. However, the peak of speed that lightning held evaded him always.

He used the knowledge of mathematics from the federation to correspond with the information to raise his comprehension. Suppose he broke through to the king’s realm. He was sure of getting a supreme crown, but the aim was an invincible crown. For that, he needed to experience strength on his own.

Shi Lang rushed forward with his body low; his speed was fast, and the mercenaries were shocked. One guy remarked, “If I had not seen his way of dealing with the demon beast king earlier, I would have questioned the viability of his moves, but now I see him, and if feels like he is invincible.”

Bo Qingtan added, “In his realm and at least one realm above him, no one has ever been able to defeat him. He is not the champion of the dragon army for nothing. Also, monsters are carved from a different mold, aren’t they, Brother Xing?”

Xing glared at Bo Qingtan and asked, “What do you mean by asking me such a question? Are you calling me a monster?”

The rest of the people stifled their laughter. On the other side, “Shi Lang approached a demonic cultivator and stabbed his neck with his dagger and severed his head the next moment.

The moves were clean, and they were neat. It was as if he had practiced it a thousand times. Well, he had practiced them at a practical level, too. The enemies he had killed could now be piled up in a small mountain.

The guards were all moving in groups, and one of them sensed some movement behind him. He quickly turned around to check what was going on when Shi Lang’s dagger flashed again, and before the guards could react, he killed them all.

The people in the distance could see everything, and they shivered. Xing gulped and said, “Yes, monsters are made different.”

The demonic cultivators Shi Lang killed were all Immortal Lord realm cultivators. They could sense people from miles away, yet Shi Lang approached them so close that they even slayed them without getting noticed. This was not something a normal person could do.

Bo Qingtan said, “Later, when you meet him, it does not matter what happens; reign in your intentions to fight or kill. He is a beast that senses such intentions and attacks to kill.”

The people nodded. They continued watching as Shi Lang moved at a quick speed, and wherever he went, demonic cultivators would fall. Their heads separated from their bodies in one clean attack.

Shi Lang spent fifteen minutes cleaning all the clatter outside the camp zone. He took out his sword and mumbled, “Raksha, reap.”

The blade shivered, and he vanished. Following this, the entire demonic camp was shocked because a peal of laughter echoed in the void, followed by screams of people falling to their demise.

Shi Lang was killing rampantly, and Raksha was reaping souls from these demonic cultivators. The terran was not relaxed, and he was moving quicker. Raksha sensed something and said, “There is a ritual altar in the middle of the camp. They are gathering the captives there.”

Shi Lang nodded and moved through the barricade of guards and killed them. When he arrived at the center, he found the demonic cultivators dragging a few women with their hair and throwing them in the center of a red ritual circle. In the middle of the circle was a stone altar, and a white-haired woman was tied there with a lifeless look on her face.

Shi Lang was stunned for a moment, and this allowed the Mercenaries to catch up with him. They had seen the demonic cultivators moving the captives outside. They could not wait anymore and moved.

Bo QIngtan said solemnly, “That girl in the center is Yun Xue. We need to hurry.”

Shi Lang gazed at the man and then at Yun Xue. His anger burned. He did not expect his next meeting with this lady to be so unkempt and eventless. His eyes turned red from the flow of blood in them. Suddenly, Shi Lang smiled.

Bo Qingtan shivered and took three steps back. Shi Lang was very scared at this moment. The terran turned his head to look at the demonic cultivators charging at them and said, “Shura cut.”

His blade flickered, and he vanished. It was as if the world had come to a stop. The next moment, Shi Lang appeared. He was behind the group of demonic cultivators. He did not look back and kept walking forward to the alter as the demonic cultivators behind him, all forty of them, fell to the ground in pieces, and blood sprayed from the body like a jet.
