Chapter 95: Eastern Wilderland (2)
Clank! Clank! Clank!
In one corner of Wilderland, four young cultivators frantically tried to get an upper hand in a battle with a massive White Rhino, an early Qi Transformation beast, after their entrapment failed to injure the beast.
They severely underestimated the thickness of the White Rhino's defense and eventually fell into their current predicament.
The group consisted of three men and one woman.
The strongest among them was the handsome young man whose hairstyle into man-bun. He was seemingly the leader of the four whose cultivation was at the peak of Qi Gathering stage.
They wore blue robes with white belts a standard uniform for Heaven Sword Sect's outer disciple.
"Senior Brother Zhao, we cannot hold much longer! We need a different plan!"
One of the cultivators, a bulky young man with a spear in his hand, shouted at the handsome man while hewith much difficultyblocked the charge of the spirit beast.
"No! We need to stick to the plan! The beast has considerably weakened, just continue to attack!"
The skinny young man with slanted eyes quickly rejected his proposal. He apparently was the one in charge of the entrapment array.
"Shut your mouth, You An! If you're not overestimating your ability, Junior Sister Lan won't be hurt!" rebuke the burly cultivator. He occasionally glanced at the young girl who kneeled on the ground whose face grew paler by the time.
"Cough I I'm fine Brother Fan. Let's continue,"
The blood on her hand though indicates otherwise.
Zhao Dong hesitated for a moment, thinking when exactly his plan went awry.
This was not the first time they team up together to hunt spirit beasts and his plan was a standard tactic to deal with higher cultivation spirit beast.
They were just unlucky to face a variant spirit beast that was more intelligent than their average prey.
After the array failed to deal a significant blow to it, the spirit beasts immediately retaliated.
Unlike the usual mindless beast, the White Rhino was a little bit smarter. It chose to attack the weakest link of the group, the girl.
Lacking battle experience, the group couldn't cope with the change in the situation and suddenly the young girl was hit by the blunt force of the White Rhino.
"We need to retreat! This beast is very cunning!"
Zhao Dong was still indecisive.
Even though they were a disciple of Big Sect, as an outer disciple, they didn't get many resources.
Only by completing a mission that they could get contribution points to exchange for cultivation resources.
White Rhino's beast core and hide were very valuable.
If they could get it, they would have enough resources for a week without the need to go hunting every day.
Zhao Dong was also urgently needed contribution points to exchange for the Qi Transformation pill to help him enter the rank of Qi Transformation cultivator.
If they could finish this White Rhino, he could have enough contribution points for exchange.
However, he also realized that their current situation wasn't good.
'Do we need to give up on this one?'
Zhao Dong felt conflicted.
"No! not yet! Senior Brother Zhao, aim at its neck's join! That spot was its weakness!"
This time the one who refuted the burly man wasn't the skinny guy, You An, but the injured girl, Lan Yu.
"Junior Sister, you" Gao Fan sighed.
"Are you sure?" asked Zhao Dong, staring at Lan Yu's eyes.
"Yes," replied Lan You weakly but confident.
Although her cultivation was weak, she had spent a long time reading about spirit beast and their weakness.
After calmly analyzed their opponent, she finally found its weak point.
"Okay! Gao Fan, you distract the White Rhino and I'll deliver the killing strike!"
"Okay!"
Gao Fan assaulted the White Rhino with a bombardment of spear thrusts. His spear's blade came from all directions annoyed the massive beast.
The White Rhino felt that something bad was going to happen but under the relentless attack from Gao Fan, it didn't have time to spare its thought.
The beast galloped at Gao Fan in fury.
Zhao Dong patiently waited for the perfect moment to strike while charging his remaining spirit Qi so that when he slashed his sword it would be the end of the beast!
'This is it!'
The beast's attention had been occupied to deal with Gao Fan, the opportunity had come!
Zhao Dong leaped at the White Rhino from the side; his sword ready to fell upon the beast's neck.
"Mountain Breaking Slash! Die, you beast!"
Zhao Dong used all his strength to sever the beast's head from its body.
Although the part was relatively softer than any other part, Zhao Dong still felt like he was cutting steel.
Using his body weight, he forced the sword to move.
Splurt.
Blood sprayed out like crazy made Zhao Dong drenched in red.
"Roaaarr..!!"
The White Rhino realized it too late.
Its body fell on the ground and it could only die with its eyes still open.
"Yes, we did it!"
The three disciples screamed in joy while Zhou Dong laid on the ground, looked out of gas.
"Quick, dismantle the corpse and take out the beast core!"
You An, the only one who was still in better shape, hastily approached the White Rhino corpse to execute Zhao Dong's order and swiftly handled the beast with trained movement.
Clap. Clap. Clap
Several clapping sounds came out of nowhere like thunder.
The four of them quickly stood and maintained their vigilance. Lan Yu, who was heavily injured, was supported by Gao Fan.
"What an extraordinary performance! As expected of Heaven Sword Sect's disciple."
A group of people approached them with greedy looks in their eyes.
From their outfit, Zhao Dong and the rest of his fellow disciples could tell that they came from Wilderland Alliance.
'F*ck! Damn my luck!' the Heaven Sword Sect's disciples cursed inwardly.
"It's just luck. Is there anything you need, fellow Daoist?"
"No, no. It is just that we are in urgent need of White Rhino hide and beast core. Is there any chance you want to sell them to us?"
The man who appeared to be their leader lightly chuckled.
"You jest, fellow Daoist. A mere White Rhino won't enter your eyes. Actually, we also desperately need the spoil, can you give a face for heaven Sword Sect and let it go this time?"
"If you are not from Heaven Sword Sect I won't bother to waste my time to speak with you," the man coldly laughed.
"What do you mean, fellow Daoist? I don't understand?"
Zhao Dong gripped his sword harder.
"You know, this is a chaotic time. Many peoples disappear without a trace in this place. Who knows some of us will be unlucky to be the next?"
"Is that a threat?" Zhao Dong's voice became colder.
"So what if it's a threat? What can you do? Spare us the nonsense and give us the beast core and we will give you quick death." The man looked at Lan Yu with a creepy smile, "Also, we will take care of your junior sister, you don't need to worry."
The group's laughter became louder and louder.
"Are you sure you want to make Heaven Sword Sect your enemy? If the sect finds out that you kill us, there won't be a place for you in Wilderland!"
Zhao Dong tried to bluff their way out. Unfortunately, their enemy didn't back down.
"Are you sure they will find out? And even if they find out, you're just a small fry, they won't treat it seriously!"
The group's leader flashed a cold smile and in a second the rest of the enemy surrounded Zhao Dong's group.
"Damn! Prepare to break the encirclement!"
"Hahaha! Do you still want to struggle? You really want to die a horrible death!"
Zhao Dong and his group were incredibly tensed and cold sweat appeared on their forehead.
They knew that their chance of survival was very low.
One of them is heavily injured while the rest of them had used any energy left on their body to stand.
'Ah, is this where I die?' each of them thought.
Zeng, Zeng.
Before the battle broke, a high-pitched note resounded in their ear.
Their enemies, who still laughing a moment before, suddenly quiet down.
Almost at the same time, all of their enemies fell on the ground with their eyes rolled back into their heads and blood gushed out from their eye sockets like a tear.
The air became eerily quiet.
Zhao Dong and his team were stunned, feeling like they were dreaming.
When they saw the lifeless body around them, their body shuddered.
Whoever killed their enemies, could also kill them with ease.
"W-what happened?"
That was the question that they dying to know the answer to right now.
When they look around to find the source of the string-like sound, they saw two beautiful figures on top of a flying sword were slowly descending in front of them.
