Chapter 875: Countless casualties, absolute advantage
"Argh... No!!!"
The latest victim's final words reverberated throughout the Cyto clan compound. The soldiers saw the victim getting enveloped by dark qi the moment he confronted the monster with dark qi. It didn't take long for the victim to start moaning in agony.
The bundle of dark qi with monster inside took its leave immediately. It looked like it's running away but a closer inspection would reveal that the monster is eerily familiar with the clan's layout. It's not escaping, it's hunting!
The victims that got enveloped by the dark qi all disappeared as they wailed in pain. The surrounding soldiers braced themselves as they rushed up to the dark qi bundle. That resulted in more bones on the ground.
Then, the dark qi bundle moved on to the next victims.
"Argh!"
"God, help me!"
"Save me!!!"
Three more soldiers died. The soldiers around the victims started shivering in fear, with pale faces, they lost the courage to assault the monster.
Bing Ling got here only to see bones, blood, and tremors in the area. The wails of soldiers who met their untimely end entered his ears. It was like a scene straight out of hell. He couldn't help but tremble.
Then, the monster within the dark qi bundle came for him.
Bing Ling's pupil shrunk to pinpoints, the scene where a hulking monster draped in dark dou qi charged straight for him, which made him freeze in fear.
When the dark dou qi touches him, he's sure he would be reduced to a pile of bones just like the other soldiers.
Bam
"Hiyaa!"
Bing Ling rallied himself and he channeled his dou qi to focus power in his daggers, he faced the incoming dark dou qi bundle.
Bam
When his daggers touched the dark qi, dull thuds came as the dark qi rippled. The weapons couldn't hold up for more than 1 second before they started cracking.
A rare armament broke!
The blood vessels in Bing Ling's hand ruptured as his face turned red from overexertion. It felt like he just got slammed with a mountain. His bones cracked and his dou qi almost collapsed. Soon, his weapons will most like be destroyed and he will be eaten by this monster in front of him.
"You vile monster, die!!!"
On the verge of despair, Bing Ling heard angry roars coming from all directions. Then, sounds of people flying here greeted his ears.
8 fighters came to Bing Ling's aid. They attacked the bundle of dark dou qi with dou qi and magic attacks.
Bam
A strong shockwave swept the surrounding area. This explosion came from the two opposing forces collided. The ground cracked, the walls also started crumbling. The 8 fighters were all tier 8 in power!
Bam
By sheer force, the 8 fighters blew the dark qi bundle away.
"Young master!"
One of the 8 fighters helped Bing Ling to his feet, he was pale and his hands were shaking.
"Are you alright?"
"Y-yeah..."
Bing Ling shook his head. The bundle of dark qi appeared to be relatively unharmed despite being attacked by the combined attacks of eight full-fledged tier 8 practitioners.
If the elites didn't gather in time, he would have lost his arms even if he kept his life.
The monster which almost killed Bing Ling in one hit and can take multiple hits from tier 8 fighters must be at least be at the top of the tier 8 realm.
"Everyone."
Bing Ling ordered.
"Don't let it get away!"
"Be at ease, young master."
When the tier 8 fighters replied, the dark qi monster jumped up and it flew straight for the area with the least population density.
"Crap!"
"Don't let it get away!"
"You monster! Stop right now!"
The tier 8 fighters hollered. They channeled power to chase after the monster but a figure appeared seemingly out of thin air, surprising the fighters greatly.
The figure went straight after the monster that just escaped.
Bing Ling and the others couldn't get a good look at the new fighter.
"Be careful!"
The figure didn't care what they had to say as he continued going after the monster.
"Fool!"
Bing Ling and the other tier 8 elites scolded the figure. That fool is bound to wound up as a pile of bones for his asinine move.
Then, something happened that went out of their expectations.
Boom
When the uninvited guest smashed into the dark qi bundle, the air around them exploded under the immense fallout. The soldiers who were nearby got blown into the distance. The resulting violent gusts also kept everyone rooted as they tried to resist being blown away by the attack.
Bam
Another thud came as they saw the tanky monster get smashed into a wall like modern art. The wall collapsed under the immense impact.
They couldn't believe their eyes when they saw the uninvited guest who looked completely fine, his clothes weren't even ruffled.
Petrified by this great display of power, they looked on with awe.
It took eight tier 8 cultivators to force the monster back temporarily. Yet, the new arrival just straight-up smacked the monster into a wall.
Is he a tier 9 superhuman?
Bing Ling couldn't believe his eyes when he identified the uninvited guest.
"Wu Yan, It's you!"
"Wu Yan?!"
The other soldiers looked at the figure with changed expressions.
As Cyto clan members, Wu Yan is a very familiar name.
He's the one who soundly defeated their young master in combat. The second young master also got wrecked when he tried to use underhanded techniques on Wu Yan.
He's an infamous individual for the Cyto clan members.
"Wu Yan!!!"
A low growl came.
Buried under a pile of rubble, rotting qi wafted up from between the rocks. Then, the qi went back before exploding in a grand fashion.
A scaly monster with long claws and wiggling tentacles emerged from under the rubble. Its mono-eye had 7 pupils while its body shone with insidious whip-like dark energy. It bellowed in anger one more time, shaking the space around it.
"Wu Yan!!!"
