Chapter 527: The Power Of One Sword… Is This Terrifying! Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The dust settled, and Bei Feng and the gangster rabbit"s figure appeared from within.
“It"s him!”
The crowd all looked over with varying levels of shock. Bei Feng"s display of might on the mountain earlier was something that everyone had witnessed. His strength was not inferior to a half-step Thousand Year King realm expert!
“This is going to be troublesome.”
The four exchanged looks, and felt their heads beginning to ache.
It took a lot of effort before they managed to wear Lu Bu out, but before they could claim the kill, another powerful individual with strength not below a half-step Thousand Year King realm expert came out.
The four of them were no longer at that hot-blooded age when they dared to fight and kill. Now that they had so many underlings, they rarely took action personally. A long period of inactivity had already worn away the courageous spirit that they used to have.
The four of them had been stuck at the half-step Thousand Year King realm for around a hundred years already. If there were no accidents, they would never break through into the Thousand Year King realm in their life!
Perhaps they would only be able to reignite the pa.s.sionate flames in their hearts on the day that they managed to break through to the Thousand Year King realm.
In order to kill Lu Bu and the rest, they"d already lost over a hundred warriors. Just saying this number out loud was enough to cause the four of them to feel a deep heartache!
But now, there was the appearance of Bei Feng. If they wanted to kill him the same way, they would most probably have to sacrifice another large group of people!
Jiang Tang opened his mouth and said with a stormy expression, “Let"s go down and fight personally; the others will support us from the back!”
“You"re right, we"ve already thoroughly offended the other party. If they don"t die today, we"ll never be able to sleep in peace!” The stalwart man also did not hesitate to speak.
Although the other two did not wish to take action personally, if the four of them did not do anything at this point, the followers that they"d ama.s.sed so painstakingly would most probably all disperse.
“Kill!”
The four exchanged a glance and instantly swooped down like eagles, charging towards Lu Bu and the rest!
“Gu Qi, I"ll leave them to you.”
Bei Feng looked at them boredly. 200 people would only take a bit of time for him to mop up. Today, not a single one of them could dream of running.
“Ji-ji!”
The gangster rabbit"s mouth did not move, but the squeaking sounds had rung out from its abdomen like a ventriloquist"s. Rolling its eyes lightly, the red sword appeared in its hand as it leapt towards the four enemies!
Seeing Bei Feng was not moving, and was even unwilling to look at them properly, Jiang Tang and the rest grew exceedingly frustrated.
Although they hadn"t fought personally for a long time, half-step Thousand Year King realm experts were still existences that normal Hundred Year realm cultivators could not contend against.
Seeing that the four leaders were taking part personally, the crowd"s spirit was also greatly roused as they charged towards Bei Feng.
As they soared through the air, a dark red rabbit suddenly appeared before their path, blocking them. The four of them naturally noticed that this rabbit looked quite similar to a gangster rabbit. However, they paid no mind to it.
“Bang!”
But in the next instant, the four"s thoughts were broken. A terrifying aura surged out of the rabbit"s body. Just the aura it released was akin to a powerful bomb exploding, generating up a shock wave!
“Thousand Year King!”
“How can it be!?”
“There"s no mistake, it"s definitely a Thousand Year King!”
“Quick, run!”
The four looked up with shock, and their hearts were flooded with fear. This aura far surpa.s.sed their own, and was even much superior to the four of them combined!
To think that a powerful Thousand Year King would appear in this place. At their current level, even the weakest Thousand Year King would be enough to deal with them.
The four did not have the slightest intention to fight, and instead retreated with even greater speed!
The gangster rabbit Gu Qi took a step forward, instantly appearing above the four. Then, it kicked out heavily with its foot, and a streak of blood-red energy blasted out, turning into a web and binding them to the spot!
The four instantly felt their bodies turn stiff. Without sparing anything, they forcefully broke out of the entanglement. With their hearts filled with fear, they began fleeing again without even turning their heads!
“Zeng!”
A sword keen rang out, and four streaks of heaven-dazzling Sword Qi flashed past the four"s body!
The gangster rabbit Gu Qi did not even bother to look at the four as it landed, took out a huge carrot, and nibbled on it.
“Kcha!”
“Boom!”
Just as the group of cultivators were scratching their heads with confusion, a tall mountain 300 meters away suddenly burst apart, shooting countless rocks and stones all over the sky! The place where it was cut apart was as smooth as a mirror!
“Bang!”
Jiang Tang and the other three who were still rapidly retreating suddenly slid, and their bodies fell apart in two halves. Their momentum carried their bodies forward for a distance before they finally smashed onto the ground!
The might of one strike… was this terrifying!
Four half-step Thousand Year King realm experts had been killed without even a chance to resist!
This was a Thousand Year King! To a Thousand Year King, normal cultivators were all the same. They could all be dealt with a single stroke!
There were perhaps some very few Hundred Year realm geniuses who could contend against Thousand Year King realm experts. However, these four were quite obviously not them. As for the gangster rabbit Gu Qi, was it not also a heavenly genius itself?
“Gulp!”
The group of cultivators who had been charging forward loudly were all dumbfounded. They knew very well just how powerful their leaders were. It was not a problem for them to fight 10 ordinary peak level Hundred Year realm experts each!
But, in just an instant, before anyone could even react, they were all killed!
“RUN!”
It wasn"t clear who shouted first, but everyone jolted as though they"d awoken from a dream. They each displayed their greatest skill and began to flee.
“Pu!”
A blood-red Sword Qi appeared, and in an instant, the few foremost runners fell down soundlessly.
“Whoever runs will end up the same way. Relax, I have no intentions to kill you all. Only, I want you to leave all your spatial rings behind,” Bei Feng said with a light smile.
After a deep silence that lasted for tens of seconds, a voice suddenly rang out from within the crowd. “Everyone, don"t believe him, they definitely will not let us off! Why don"t we just fight it out with them? We have the numerical advantage, and might not necessarily lose!”
“You"re seeking death!” Bei Feng"s eyes shone with a chilly glint, and the gangster rabbit beside him struck out unhesitantly!
“AH!”
A wretched cry rang out, causing the other experts nearby to nearly retaliate. However, they still held the impulse in and scrambled out of the way.
“Ss!”
The moment the area was cleared, and everyone looked over, they felt their bodies turn cold with fear. A body was lying in the middle of the clearing, with countless blood-red slash marks all over his body!
That person seemed to have been turned into a piece of cut meat; yet, he was still alive!
Every single breath he took would cause a great amount of pain!
Everyone turned their heads away as a s.h.i.+ver pa.s.sed down their spine.
Bei Feng"s eyes turned cordial again as he said in a bland tone, “Turn over your spatial rings, and you may leave.”
Their possessions, or their life?
The answer was obvious. Money could be earned as long as one was alive. But if one was dead, everything was useless.
Someone took the lead and handed over his spatial ring. Following that, everyone began to do the same. Finally, they all stood apprehensively, looking at Bei Feng.
“You all may leave now.”
Bei Feng waved his hand nonchalantly, and everyone heaved a sigh of relief.
“Oh, right, you can of course choose to look for me for revenge. However, that is how you will end up.”
Bei Feng smiled and pointed at the unfortunate fellow who had been hit by Gu Qi"s spirit power ability.
The moment they heard Bei Feng"s words, everyone felt their bodies stiffen, thinking that he was going back on his words. But when they heard the second part of their words, they visibly relaxed.
Every person that walked past the unfortunate fellow who was still conscious and groaning pitifully on the ground would unknowingly pause for a moment to look at him. It was as if they were lamenting for him, and also reminding themselves.
“Family Head, what…?”
Lu Bu"s mouth was hanging wide open with shock. He"d originally thought that there would be a huge battle, and was prepared to brave death to protect Bei Feng. But who would have thought that the fight would be so one-sided!
“This is my partner, gangster rabbit Gu Qi, a Demonic Beast at the Thousand Year King realm,” Bei Feng introduced to Lu Bu.
A strange look appeared in the gangster rabbit"s red eyes, but it did not say anything. It was unclear what it was thinking. It could speak human words, but it rarely said anything at all.
“Thousand Year King?!”
Although Lu Bu had made that guess earlier, he was still incredibly shocked when he heard the words coming out of Bei Feng"s own mouth.
Any family clans without a Thousand Year King watching over them were simply akin to big fat pieces of meat. It was simply too easy for powerful forces to gobble them up. The Lu Family"s total a.s.sets amounted to several billion HCD. It was an amount that even Thousand Year Kings could not underestimate.
Originally, the Lu Family was already capable of growing even stronger; however, because they didn"t have any Thousand Year King realm experts with them, they did not dare to touch the interests of the big families.
The current Lu Family could only be considered to be a set of chicken ribs to the big families. They were hardly worth eating, but it would still be a pity to discard. But if they advanced another step, they would suddenly become a juicy slab of meat at the corner of their mouths!
It was easy to imagine that once the Lu Family had a Thousand Year King realm expert with them, they would see another period of rapid advancement!
Even if the Lu Family only had a single Thousand Year King realm Demonic Beast, it was still a Thousand Year King!
“Family Head, actually, I obtained a fortuitous encounter, I…” Lu Bu said after he recovered from his shock.
“There"s no need to say it out loud. Since you"ve come across the fortuitous encounter, then it belongs to you. Apart from me, there"s no need to tell anyone else,” Bei Feng interrupted Lu Bu"s words.
“Yes!”
Lu Bu nodded, suddenly feeling an impulse to die for his boss.
“Let"s leave this place first, the separate s.p.a.ce is going to collapse soon.” Bei Feng surveyed the surroundings and hurriedly left with Lu Bu and Gu Qi.
He did not know what the legacy on the other mountain was, but he didn"t have time to find out anymore.
The moment this s.p.a.ce collapsed, even Thousand Year Kings would die here.
Bei Feng did not wish to experience the feeling of having his soul drift aimlessly through s.p.a.ce again.
The group"s speed was very fast, quickly arriving back at the point where they entered before. Taking a step forward, their heads spun, and they appeared deep inside the mine again.
Bei Feng did not stop. All along the way, he could see other cultivators rus.h.i.+ng by while looking at the people around them warily.
When they returned back to the surface, the sky had already turned dark, and a pale moon hung high in the sky, casting a silver light upon the vast land.
Bei Feng looked up at the sky, his thoughts wandering slightly. This world did not seem to be in the same solar system as Tianmu Planet. Tianmu Planet"s night sky was always occupied by three purple moons, but the sky here contained an unblemished white moon.
“Kcha!”
A faint sound rang out from the distance, drawing the attention of the crowd who had escaped far away.
The s.p.a.ce around the mine suddenly cracked, looking like a mirror that was about to shatter!
Although these cracks did not look dangerous, they were something that even Thousand Year King realm experts would not be able to withstand!
The black cracks filled the entire s.p.a.ce around the mine, easily cutting through the mountain. Soundlessly and without warning, the huge mountain instantly crumbled apart, turning into countless tiny fragments.
The crowd watching this all felt their hearts turning heavy. Such a power was not inferior to heavenly disasters. The might of human ability seemed so tiny before it that they would not be capable of withstanding a single blow.
