Chapter 270: Chaotic Battle, Humanoid Demonic Beast (1)

Previously, when he heard from Meng Bai about killing the people from the Demon Realm, Zhou Shu had thought that the Great Xia army would at least have the numerical advantage.

Then he saw. Oh boy.

The beings from the Demon Realm were everywhere. There were already countless figures in his field of vision, not to mention that more were constantly descending from the sky.

The Great Xia army seemed to be completely surrounded.

Zhou Shu guessed that it was probably not just Great Xia. The situation of the armies of the other nations was probably not much better.

The deputy general beside Meng Bai kept waving his flag and commanding the army to fight.

But there were simply too many people from the Demon Realm. In just a short while, the Great Xia army had been separated and were fighting on their own.

This situation was clearly expected by Meng Bai.

He didn’t show the slightest sign of panic as he continued to fire his signal. He drew the long saber from his waist.

“King of the South, keep up!” Meng Bai shouted.

His long saber turned into a saber beam that enveloped the dozens of demonic beasts in front of him.

Blood sprayed.

Zhou Shu rolled his eyes. Didn’t they say that forgers are just logistics support personnel?

This is only the beginning. You’ve even given up on the camp?

What Zhou Shu didn’t know was that this had always been the case in the Ten Nations Martial Arts Tournament.

Because they didn’t know when the people of the Demon Realm would arrive, the initial camp was just a temporary foothold.

Only after the first wave of battle and the arrival of the people from the Demon Realm could both sides occupy a portion of the territory and begin a three-year battle.

In any case, there was no avoiding this first wave of battle.

[The Spring Embroidered Saber you forged effectively completed a kill. The Visualization of the Five Mountains’ True Form has improved by 30%.]

[The Autumn Anatidae Plume Saber you forged effectively completed a kill. You receive a Breakthrough Pill.]

[The Eight-Sided Han Sword you forged effectively completed a kill. The Riding on Cloud and Wind Technique has improved by 20%.]

[The Flaming Sunset Saber you forged effectively completed a kill. The Iron Smelting Hands Technique has improved by 10%.]

…

A barrage of messages flashed past Zhou Shu’s eyes as the true qi and spiritual essence in his body continuously erupted.

A huge amount of information kept pouring into his mind.

Even though he cultivated the Visualization of the Five Mountains’ True Form, Zhou Shu could still feel his brain swell.

It made him feel as if he had eaten too much. He felt sick.

As his cultivation level increased, he hadn’t experienced this feeling for a long time.

As uncomfortable as it was, it felt good.

“Keep killing.”

Zhou Shu pulled out the Great Destroyer Sword, wanting to vent all his energy.

If he didn’t vent this feeling of fullness, he thought he’d go crazy.

“Astounding Heavenly Eighteen Swords!”

The Great Destroyer Sword turned into a sword light that filled the sky. Within five steps, the sword cut all the demonic beasts in half.

The battlefield was full of the sounds of battle.

Every second, countless lives were reaped. Those who died were from both the Demon Realm and Great Xia.

For dozens of miles, it seemed like hell on earth. Everyone was fighting for their lives.

Boom!

Zhou Shu killed a demonic beast with one strike, and his spiritual essence surged.

His cultivation had broken through the bottleneck of the fifth rank and successfully advanced to the fourth rank.

Zhou Shu let out a long cry and slashed out with the Great Destroyer Sword. Hundreds of feet in front of him, he slashed into nothingness.

Countless demonic beasts died under this sword.

Zhou Shu had just broken through to the fourth grade of the Martial Dao, and his spiritual essence cultivation was still rapidly increasing. In an instant, he was already comparable to an expert who had been a fourth-rank martial artist for many years.

But his strength was high to begin with, and the change in his spiritual essence cultivation didn’t bring him any fundamental improvement.

On the other hand, Yin Wuyou, who was following him, watched with sparkling eyes.

The more others fight, the more tired they become. Why is Zhou Shu becoming more and more energetic?

As he fights, his cultivation even breaks through!

My man, how impressive!

Yin Wuyou’s face was a little red as she thought, but her hands didn’t relax as she killed enemies one by one.

There were countless people from the Demon Realm, and they had various cultivation levels. Those with higher cultivation levels were second and third-rank martial artists, and those with lower cultivation levels were only eighth and ninth-rank martial artists.

But Zhou Shu had yet to encounter a first-rank martial artist. He wondered if they hadn’t descended in this area.

The individual strength of these demonic beasts was nothing to Zhou Shu, but there were too many of them.

Zhou Shu killed his way forward. After an unknown period of time, a roar suddenly sounded in the air, and the demonic beasts surged in one direction like a tide.

After only a moment, the demonic beasts turned into a black line. Then after a while, they could no longer be seen.

Zhou Shu watched in confusion as they retreated. He didn’t chase after them. He still remembered the principle of not chasing a cornered enemy.

“Where are we?” Zhou Shu looked around, confusion on his face.

The surrounding environment was very unfamiliar. There was no trace of the original Great Xia military camp.

Not only that, but the Great Xia army had also disappeared.

“Did we get separated from the army while fighting just now?”

He remembered coming from the plains. Why had he come to the mountains now?

Beside him, Yin Wuyou was also at a loss. She only had eyes for Zhou Shu and didn’t notice when they got separated from the main group.

“I’ll go up and take a look!” Yin Wuyou said as she took a step and soared into the sky.

After flying for more than a hundred feet, Yin Wuyou was about to find traces of the Great Xia army when a fiery red light suddenly shot over from an unknown distance.
