Section 23: Five Spirit Monsters, Battle Power Explodes!
“Chu Yun!” A soft shout, Chu Yun, holding the Drunken Snow Saber, strode out of the forest, appearing before everyone.
“Ah, Young Master Chu Yun!” The girls of Yan Zhi rejoiced. Even Hua Mei’s face was filled with a radiant brilliance.
“Little Tyrant…” The faces of the Ironclad Alliance members immediately became stern.
“Hahaha, good! Very good!” Li Zheng was stunned at first, then repeatedly exclaimed “good.” He pointed at Chu Yun and sneered, “You refuse the path to heaven, and barge into hell! No one makes a move, I will fight this guy alone. I will step on his corpse to achieve my glory and ascend the Talented Person Ranking.”
“Li Zheng…” Blood Axe Hand opened his mouth to dissuave, but the members of the Ironclad Alliance had already cheered for Li Zheng in unison.
“Shura Army Soul Horse, come out!” Li Zheng roared and summoned a demonic beast warhorse. This warhorse was extremely tall, with pale ghost fire burning in its eye sockets. Its entire body was black yet faintly transparent, formless and intangible, a very rare demonic beast.
“Chu Yun, if you have the guts, come up and fight me one-on-one! All of you watch carefully how I take down the Little Tyrant alone!” Li Zheng mounted the Shura Army Soul Horse,Brandishing the Sea-Devouring Halberd, full of heroic spirit, he soared into the sky.
Chu Yun sneered, not even looking at Li Zheng. He was here to rescue people, not to find someone to spar with. Why should he act according to Li Zheng’s wishes?
“Idiot!” He sneered, raised the Drunken Snow Saber, and directly charged into the battlefield.
“You!” Blood Axe Hand never expected Chu Yun to react this way. This was completely playing by different rules. Wanderers valued reputation greatly; when challenged in person, they would surely respond. He didn’t expect Chu Yun to simply ignore it and charge forward.
On the other hand, Li Zheng, the expert who was supposed to hold the fort for the Ironclad Alliance, had voluntarily withdrawn from the field.
The battlefield had just calmed down, and Chu Yun, like a tiger entering a flock of sheep, caused immediate chaos with his disruption.
“Chu Yun! Are you even a man? Evading the challenge!”
“Little Tyrant, you’re nothing special.”
“Chu Yun, do you understand the rules of the wanderer world… Ah!”
The Ironclad Alliance members shouted insults and curses, but Chu Yun had already begun his slaughter, triggering a wave of screams. With a flick of his wrist, the bright saber light surged, unleashing a torrent of dazzling brilliance.
He was invincible, immediately carving a bloody path on the battlefield. Saber energy was like lightning, and fine heads flew into the sky, blood splattering. All sorts of demonic beasts wailed, their lives taken by the razor-sharp edge of the Drunken Snow Saber.
“Chu Yun, you don’t deserve the title of Little Tyrant at all. You don’t even have the courage to fight me one-on-one!” Li Zheng was furious, his face contorted with shame and annoyance at being toyed with.
Chu Yun turned a deaf ear, already engaging Blood Axe Hand. The Drunken Snow Saber was invincible, his attacks fierce, while Blood Axe Hand was experienced, cunning, and ruthless.
The fighting styles of both sides were of the strong and domineering type. Therefore, when they clashed, the scene was extremely fiery.
“This Little Tyrant…” In the blink of an eye, their sabers and axes had clashed over a hundred times, and Blood Axe Hand was inwardly shaken. Even as an old veteran, facing Chu Yun’s attacks, he felt a suffocating pressure.
He resisted with all his might but still found himself retreating step by step.
Saber Techniques at the Great Success realm!
“Even Blood Axe Hand, the leader, is being suppressed by Chu Yun!” The members of the Ironclad Alliance saw this and broke out in a cold sweat.
“Vice-Leader Li Zheng, please hurry and intervene!” someone shouted in desperation.
“Don’t worry, Blood Axe Hand has four Spirit Monsters in total. He hasn’t used his true strength yet!” Some were not in a hurry, their eyes sharp and their combat experience extremely rich, they saw through the situation at a glance.
Although the battle between Chu Yun and Blood Axe Hand was fierce and intense, it was merely a probing engagement. Neither side was using their full strength.
“Third Uncle, move aside, I’ll deal with him!” Li Zheng, riding his Shura Army Soul Horse, pointed his halberd at Chu Yun and roared, charging down.
“Good! You take over, I’ll deal with these stubborn Yan Zhi people.” Blood Axe Hand’s eyes flashed with strange light, and after three quick ax swings, he retreated.
He could see that Chu Yun had broken into their encirclement, and the battlefield was in chaos. If this continued, Yan Zhi would break free.
“Huh? You still want to leave?!” A sharp, blade-like glint flashed in Chu Yun’s eyes. At this moment, he keenly sensed a battle opportunity.
Originally, Blood Axe Hand was not at a disadvantage against Chu Yun, his momentum fierce. But with his retreat, his momentum plummeted, and he could no longer restrain Chu Yun, giving him more room to maneuver.
With a roar, Chu Yun’s momentum surged, and he summoned the Lishan Dragon Eye Flower Branch. He held the Drunken Snow Saber in one hand and the Lishan Dragon Eye Flower Branch in the other. His power surged like a dragon, unleashing a torrential offensive.
“Not good!” Blood Axe Hand’s heart sank, but he didn’t panic too much. He had rich combat experience and had anticipated such a surge in the opponent’s momentum.
“It doesn’t matter, this isn’t a one-on-one fight.” Blood Axe Hand sneered as he looked at Chu Yun charging towards him. His hope was Li Zheng.
Li Zheng, swept up in a tempestuous aura, descended like a meteor from the sky, tearing through the heavens and earth. The Sea-Devouring Halberd cut through the sky, heading for Chu Yun.
“Chu Yun, you die!” he roared, extremely bloodthirsty, as if he could already see the beautiful scene of Chu Yun being impaled by his halberd.
Chu Yun had no choice but to stop, focusing his attention on dealing with the strike from the sky.
“Good, Chu Yun, you’re finished!” Blood Axe Hand immediately felt the pressure ease. In this instant, his eyes gleamed, and he reversed his retreat, charging forward. He and Li Zheng formed a pincer attack.
This move, advancing by retreating, immediately displayed Blood Axe Hand’s ruthless and sharp combat style, as well as his extremely rich combat prowess.
“Despicable!” The Yan Zhi girls saw this and their eyes turned red with anger.
Even Hua Mei’s heart sank. She didn’t have time to intervene, only managing a delicate cry, “Be careful,” before watching helplessly as Chu Yun fell into a life-threatening situation.
Li Zheng attacked from above, while Blood Axe Hand, changing from retreat to advance, both experts struck simultaneously, intending to kill Chu Yun.
“Third Uncle, move aside!!” Li Zheng shouted. He wanted to fight Chu Yun one-on-one and gain glory. Blood Axe Hand’s actions were beyond his expectations, making him extremely displeased.
Blood Axe Hand snorted, his eyes flashing, but he remained silent. He was a seasoned veteran, acting ruthlessly and cunningly, long past the age of youthful hot-headedness. He only wanted to kill Chu Yun first and decide the outcome.
“We’re going to win!”
“This Chu Yun is still too young. With this move, the tide has turned.”
“Hahaha, this is the world of wanderers. This is the cruelty of the martial world! A fierce dragon doesn’t cross the river, and the name ‘Little Tyrant’ will soon be a thing of the past!”
At this moment, the pupils of the Ironclad Alliance members all enlarged. Seeing Chu Yun about to die at the hands of their leaders, many trembled with excitement.
“Young Master Chu Yun…” Hua Mei’s voice trailed off.
The Yan Zhi girls cried out in unison.
“You want to kill me? You’re too naive! Spirit Monster Battle Power, release it all!!” Facing two powerful enemies, Chu Yun, even in dire straits, felt his courage surge within him.
He slapped his Immortal Pouch repeatedly, and the Sky Fox, Multicolor Rainbow Demon, and Swirling Dan Yuan Tree flew out. Combined with the Drunken Snow Saber and Lishan Dragon Eye Flower Branch, before everyone’s stunned eyes, the battle power of five Spirit Monsters erupted simultaneously.
Various Dao Laws surged forth, converging into a brilliant and spectacular torrent of Dao Laws, sweeping across Heaven and Earth with irresistible force!
BOOM!
Amidst the massive explosion, Li Zheng and Blood Axe Hand could not resist for even a moment. They spat out blood, their bodies flying backward like kites with broken strings.
“Five Spirit Monsters!!!”
“How can this be? He’s only fifteen, how can he have the battle power of five Spirit Monsters?”
“The intelligence said he only had two Spirit Monsters, how could he have grown so fast?!”
The members of the Ironclad Alliance collectively went mad, looking at Chu Yun unleashing his might in disbelief.
“Impossible! He clearly only had two Spirit Monsters, how could he have mastered five in just a few days of not seeing him?” Hua Mei was also greatly shocked, her beautiful eyes widening, filled with a strange brilliance. “What fortuitous encounter did he have? Could it be that the Ten Thousand Beasts King’s inheritance truly has another part?”
Hua Mei’s thoughts were quick, and she immediately guessed the truth. But she felt no jealousy, only admiration for Chu Yun.
Chu Yun had paid more than she had, even risking his life to be trapped in the mist, bearing immense pressure, and relying on his own judgment to achieve such a harvest.
“Little Tyrant, Little Tyrant, he truly has the potential to dominate the world!” Hua Mei savored the title “Little Tyrant” on her lips several times, finally understanding why the world would evaluate Chu Yun so highly.
“Five Spirit Monsters, five Spirit Monsters! He’s only fifteen, four years younger than me, and he possesses the battle power of five Spirit Monsters! I, the youngest Battle Flag Envoy in the history of the Ironclad Alliance, only have three Spirit Monsters! Impossible! This is impossible!”
Li Zheng roared in jealousy and terror, unable to accept such a blow. He appeared extremely disheveled.
“The intelligence is wrong, gravely wrong!” Blood Axe Hand also cried out in his heart. “What kind of talent is this! To have grown to this point at fifteen, what will he be like in the future? He cannot, absolutely cannot be allowed to develop further!”
Blood Axe Hand was a cunning and ruthless wanderer expert, and a pillar of the Ironclad Alliance. He deeply understood Chu Yun’s terrifying nature. This terror was not just in his surface battle power, but more so in his future potential.
“Kill!” he roared, forcing himself to stabilize his body, summoning all his Spirit Monsters, a total of five. Each unleashed their Dao Laws, counter-attacking Chu Yun.
His killing intent surged, almost becoming tangible. In his heart, he had made up his mind: even if it meant mutual destruction, he would eliminate Chu Yun for the future of the Ironclad Alliance!
“Good opportunity!” Hua Mei’s eyes gleamed. She suddenly drew the Ziwei hairpin from her head and softly exclaimed, “Six Spirits Sealing Art!”
This was her trump card.
Once unleashed, the hairpin struck Blood Axe Hand almost instantly, who was fully attacking and unable to defend in time.
“Not good!” Blood Axe Hand forcefully moved, avoiding the vital points, but was still struck in the right arm by the hairpin. The Spirit energy within him was immediately sealed, severing his connection with his five Spirit Monsters. His attack dissipated.
Whoosh!
Immediately after, a beam of saber light streaked through the air in a mysterious arc, avoiding the five clumsy Spirit Monsters that had lost their commander, and split Blood Axe Hand in two.
