Swallowing the Stars: Starting with the Giant of Light

Page 8

A gleaming silver sword tip, with a force of nearly 8 tons, easily pierced through the ear and the entire head.

In just one round, Lu Yunhe crossed a minor realm and instantly defeated his opponent.

"Is this a movement technique at the Subtlety level?"

On the other side, watching Lu Yunhe easily eliminate the enemy's four guards, they also widened their eyes in disbelief.

"Is this the Subtlety Level?"

Scarface, the only one among the four bodyguards whose movement technique had reached the level of "subtle insight," was also somewhat confused, feeling that it was completely unlike his own level of "subtle insight."

"Alright, let's keep going. We'll leave the monsters along the way to Lu Yunhe!"

Compared to the shocked guards, Dong Nanbiao on the other side remained completely unfazed. Compared to the creation guidance technique and martial arts skills, it was merely a matter of superior movement techniques, something he had already anticipated.

"Yes!"

The group then continued towards their destination, leaving all the monsters they encountered along the way to Lu Yunhe to deal with.

At this time, the wilderness was still dominated by beast soldiers, and since it had already been bombarded by military firepower, there were not many beast general-level monsters.

The only novice beast general they encountered was easily dealt with by Lu Yunhe, once again shocking everyone.

However, when they reach the intermediate and advanced levels, they are no longer fighting alone; they start to have underlings, so they all have to work together to solve the problems.

After a day of fighting, the group finally arrived outside the Wolf King's valley.

Chapter 12 Blood Demon Wolf

The moon was bright and the stars were few; due to the collective evolution of the monsters, there were not many birdsongs or insect chirps in the forest.

"Rest tonight, we'll get started tomorrow morning!"

After a day of fierce fighting, everyone's physical strength was exhausted, and coupled with the unfavorable conditions at night, Dong Nanbiao decided to launch another attack the next morning.

"Roger that!"

The group skillfully tidied themselves up, concealing their presence and covering their scent, and also helped Lu Yunhe, the novice, with some treatment.

After the four guards each found a place to lie down and rest, Dong Nanbiao quietly found Lu Yunhe.

"Yunhe, after you've dealt with this Blood Demon Wolf King, you can head straight to Jiangnan City!"

Dong Nanbiao ultimately decided to send Lu Yunhe to a safe place, the place where he should stay.

"Are you planting your own flag, or yours on mine?"

Lu Yunhe was a little frustrated. If this flag had belonged to a real intermediate-level warrior, he probably would have been killed by now. Fortunately, he wasn't, so he could withstand it.

"Haha, just a little dog king, I can crush him with one hand."

Dong Nanbiao said exaggeratedly, but he really didn't take this wolf king seriously at the moment.

After receiving guidance from Lu Yunhe, Dong Nanbiao successfully broke through to the intermediate level of War God. With the improvement in his martial arts skills, dealing with a low-level lord was not difficult.

However, this is just a minor incident. The real threat comes from the ocean, and this threat is not only fatal to them, but also to all of humanity, given its sheer size.

Not hearing a reply from Lu Yunhe, Dong Nanbiao sighed inwardly and couldn't help but ask, "Why?"

As a survivor of the cataclysm, Lu Yunhe should understand his importance and there's no need for him to continue risking his life here; it's simply not worth it.

"Because there is light in my heart!"

Lu Yunhe replied softly, "This light is not an adjective, but something that truly exists."

"???"

Dong Nanbiao couldn't understand this genius's idea at all, so he closed his eyes and rested for a while.

Even a lion uses its full strength to hunt a rabbit, and at such a crucial time, he didn't want to suffer too serious an injury.

As dawn broke, Lu Yunhe and the others had fully recovered and began their attack on Wolf King Valley.

In the entire Wolf King Valley, besides a Blood Demon Wolf King who is a low-level lord, there are six Blood Demon Wolves at the level of Beast General and dozens at the level of Beast Soldier.

There were a total of forty or fifty Blood Demon Wolves, a number that would have been impossible to organize before the Great Cataclysm.

The most amazing thing about the Cataclysm is that while the strength of all life forms is soaring, their appetites are also increasing.

However, due to the existence of this magical power of cosmic energy, the monsters' weight gain far exceeded their corresponding increase in appetite.

The monsters, which can be measured in tons, mean that despite the destruction of vast amounts of farmland, most human bases do not experience food shortages.

Throughout the Great Cataclysm, despite the severe damage to transportation, there has never been a food shortage, which is quite surreal.

Because of this, humanity was able to easily stabilize its basic structure, and the order was not greatly disrupted, since people wouldn't go hungry.

"The four of you work together to hold off the six Blood Demon Wolves at the Beast General level. As for the Blood Demon Wolves at the Beast Soldier level, leave them to Lu Yunhe. Don't let these monsters interfere with my battle with the Lord."

Dong Nanbiao quickly assigned tasks. Although there were 6 beast generals on the other side, there were no high-level beast generals (they would be eaten or driven away by the wolf king if they posed a threat). With the combined efforts of the 4 guards, they could barely hold their own.

Lu Yunhe possesses the strength of a junior warrior, making it easy for him to deal with some monsters at the beast soldier level.

"Just stop them. I'll come help you after I've dealt with the Wolf King."

After giving the order, Dong Nanbiao took the lead, unleashing the aura of a war god, and charged directly towards the Blood Demon Wolf King in the valley.

Ow...

Upon sensing the intruders, the Blood Demon Wolf King roared to the sky, its clear voice echoing throughout the valley, and began to summon its minions.

These days, who goes out alone? Everyone goes out in a group.

"Come here!"

Dong Nanbiao leaped forward, raised his axe, and slammed it down from the sky, forcing the Blood Demon Wolf King back.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Lu Yunhe and the others stopped the other Blood Demon Wolves who were preparing to provide support.

The main obstacle was actually those six Blood Demon Wolves, which were at the level of Beast Generals. Those monsters at the level of Beast Soldiers wouldn't dare to get involved in a battle at the level of War Gods.

Of course, if dozens of beast soldiers were to get involved, it would still cause some disruption to the battlefield, and the cunning Blood Demon Wolf King could easily seize the opportunity.

"We'll form a square formation, Yunhe, you can attack freely!"

Once you're on the battlefield, the enemy won't cooperate and fight separately. So the moment the two sides make contact, they immediately start a group battle.

The four guards attacked while defending, their coordination was impeccable.

However, under the siege of numerous blood demon wolves led by the beast general, they could only struggle to hold on and barely manage to protect themselves.

During the Great Cataclysm, warriors lacked good equipment and martial arts skills, making it even more difficult for humans, who were already at a disadvantage against monsters of the same level, to fight.

This is only the difference in combat strength. In terms of numbers, the gap between martial artists and monsters is even greater. Only at the level of War God and above will the difference be much smaller.

"Three mid-level beast generals, three low-level beast generals, thirty-six high-level beast soldiers, three mid-level beast soldiers, and forty-five of each type."

Lu Yunhe, sensing that his teammates were not doing well, silently took the overall situation of the battlefield into his mind.

"It's better to cut off one finger than to injure all ten!"

"Twice the power!"

Lu Yunhe gripped the alloy sword tightly in his hand, his strength and stats doubling, reaching the peak of a high-level warrior.

Tear!

Lu Yunhe thrust his sword into the head of the beast-soldier-level Blood Demon Wolf in front of him, then quickly pulled it out, pulling out strands of brain matter. At the same time, he used the momentum to jump up, and another Blood Demon Wolf missed its target.

"2.5 times the force from the feet, a drop of a thousand pounds!"

Lu Yunhe stomped his foot hard, and the power of a beginner warrior directly broke the spine of the Blood Demon Wolf beneath him.

Hey~

The blood demon wolf beneath his feet let out a shrill scream, but Lu Yunhe showed no mercy and tripled the force of his kick.

"go with!"

With a flick of his toe and a kick, Lu Yunhe killed the Blood Demon Wolf and simultaneously slammed its corpse into a mid-level Beast Soldier Blood Demon Wolf, killing the latter instantly.

"Triple the force in your arm, slash horizontally!"

After instantly killing three Blood Demon Wolves, Lu Yunhe swung his sword again, using a force exceeding ten thousand kilograms to cleave a Blood Demon Wolf that pounced from the side in two.

"receive!"

After killing another Blood Demon Wolf, Lu Yunhe quickly withdrew all his strength, maintaining a state of double the power, which was more energy-efficient.

Because of the low basic strength, excessive exertion will not only damage the body, but also consume a lot of physical strength.

hiss!

Lu Yunhe's massacre instantly attracted the attention of the Blood Demon Wolf, a beast general-level creature, which stealthily crept over.

However, Lu Yunhe had already sensed this and increased his speed by exerting force with his feet, quickly widening the distance between them and setting his sights on the easier-to-bully Beast Soldier-level Blood Demon Wolf.

Lu Yunhe, alone with his sword, directly restrained the entire wolf pack, much to the frustration of the many Blood Demon Wolves.

Forty-five against five, the advantage was in my hands, how could it have turned out like this?

Chapter 13 Perfect Level and Breakthrough

"So strong!"

The four people who were struggling to hold out in a square formation felt somewhat incredulous as they observed the changes on the battlefield.

Compared to Lu Yunhe, it felt like the other party was a mid-level general, while they were four mid-level warriors.

"Change formation!"

Seeing Lu Yunhe wreaking havoc, the four guards of Dong Nanbiao were not to be underestimated. They quickly changed their attack formation and entangled several Blood Demon Wolves of the Beast General level, instantly reversing the tide of the battle.

Ouch...

"Twenty-three...twenty-four..."

Just a few minutes later, Lu Yunhe single-handedly killed more than half of the beast-soldier level Blood Demon Wolves.

Limited by his own low cultivation level and the problem with his equipment and weapons, Lu Yunhe had to try his best to hit the monster's weak points with every attack.
