Jing Wei soared into the air, and all the illusory shadows of the Wind God Sword that had passed through the bull-head warrior returned to his hand. In his grasp was a Super Wind God Sword composed of countless illusory shadows of the Wind God Sword.
"Slash!"
The Super Wind God Sword, formed by countless illusory shadows of Wind God Swords, descended, and the bull-head warrior desperately raised the bone club in his hand to fend off the attack.
The power within the Wind God Sword's blade calmed down, the light vanished, and it returned to its original form.
Beneath the bull-head warrior's feet, a crack extending a hundred meters appeared, and the bone club in his hand had been chopped into two.
A half-piece mask slipped off, revealing eyes full of disbelief underneath. A blood mark appeared on his forehead, and from his head, the bull-head warrior's body shattered inch by inch, turning to flying ashes and vanishing in the wind.
The bull-head warrior was never truly of the Core Formation Realm. It didn't possess a Divine Soldiers, relying entirely on its powerful bloodline to wield the strength to battle a Core Formation Realm Martial Cultivator.
It was entirely natural to be defeated by a Core Formation Realm Martial Cultivator with Divine Soldiers.
Boom! Bang, bang, bang~
After Jing Wei unleashed his ultimate move, others also unleashed their ultimates, releasing the power of Divine Soldiers. Some killed their opponents, some only repelled them, and some whose Divine Soldiers power wasn't combat-oriented were driven back by barbarian tribe experts.
Lu Yu retracted the Celestial Falling Bright Flame fire seed in his palm; within his attack range, all the natives had perished. He was too lazy to perform individual long-range snipes, as it consumed too much mental effort.
The natives and monsters turned and fled, marking the end of the An Nan City's defense battle.
After all, most of the Core Formation Realm level experts dispatched by the southern barbarian tribe were defeated by An Nan City's side. If they still wished to continue fighting, they'd have to send even stronger experts.
For instance, experts of the totem avatar level; otherwise, it would be challenging to regroup the scattered military morale.
But they had no intention of taking An Nan City in one fell swoop. When the southern barbarian tribe's experts retreated, the commanding witch already retreated.
Not every witch was as weak as the poison witch and black witch killed by Lu Yu. The strength of a witch mainly depends on the size of the tribe; witches from large tribes far surpass those from small tribes.
Some witches from large tribes even exceed the strength of the totems worshiped by small tribes.
Bang~ Bang~ Bang~ After the barbarian tribe's retreat, everyone collapsed to the ground. By now, their spiritual power was nearly depleted.
Li Ruofu looked at Lu Yu, who stood in place gazing into the distance, nudging Zhou Lan sitting on the ground beside her, "Lanlan, look at him, he can still stand."
As she spoke, Li Ruofu squinted and released her perception, exclaiming in surprise, "His spiritual power is still full!"
The moment Li Ruofu's perception fell on Lu Yu, he felt it. Since there was no malice in the perception, he paid it no mind.
Throughout the battle, countless perceptions fell on him, all attracted by the attention drawn by his golden rain of fire.
Zhou Lan glanced at Lu Yu, saying weakly, "He must be at the Qi Sea Realm."
Li Ruofu continued, "Even at the Qi Sea Realm, you can't have expended no spiritual power. Look, everyone else is panting, but he's the only one unaffected."
"You should know, earlier, he single-handedly killed countless barbarians, which must have required a lot of consumption. I suspect he has a treasure that restores spiritual power."
She didn't assume it was pills, as the battle was over, in a safe period, so there was no need to rapidly restore spiritual power by consuming expensive recovery pills.
Moreover, no one would consume pills to restore spiritual power to full; doing so would waste the pill's potency. Typically, it's restored to around 80-90%, and after consumption, you'd continue with another.
Zhou Lan patted herself down, took out two third-grade Qi Recovery Pills, handed one to Li Ruofu, saying, "Take a Qi Recovery Pill, or else you won't have the strength to walk."
"Also, what treasures others have on them is none of your business, better focus on your own matters!"
After swallowing a Qi Recovery Pill, Zhou Lan restored a bit of spiritual power, felt his energy return to his body, and dragged Li Ruofu towards the bottom of the city wall.
When they came up, everyone had simply jumped up; when descending, they all took the stairs down.
The battle had exhausted their strength and spiritual power; even with a small recovery, no one wanted to risk anything when jumping down, potentially faceplanting, so they obediently climbed down the stairs.
Lu Yu jumped off the city wall, landing quietly in the air without making a sound upon hitting the ground.
Should Lu Yu choose, he could descend by stepping on air stairs, showcasing his control over power with ease.
But he wasn't fond of taking the spotlight; only after someone led the jump did he follow suit.
The first to lead is always the most eye-catching.
The crowd split at the road's fork, with Divine Weapon Pavilion disciples heading towards the dorm direction. Lu Yu saw many disciples take out their Identity Tokens, discussing with teammates the gains from this battle.
"Killed 7 natives, earned nearly 2000 Contribution Points, and post-task settlement will likely earn at least 1000 more Contribution Points; this task is really awesome!" A disciple smiled happily at his Identity Token.
"Hmm? You're not planning to stay here longer? Leaving so soon?" His companion asked inquiringly.
"Where, I didn't say I'm leaving. It's just that the follow-up tasks are different. Rewards for killing enemies off the battlefield are quite low, so I plan to take the enemy rear task; the battlefield's too dangerous."
"This time, the Core Formation Realm almost broke the battlefield, almost only Qi Sea Realm could protect themselves. Next time besieged, it may be even more dangerous, with Distracted Realm experts possibly appearing; staying to defend the city is too risky."
"So I'm planning to do enemy rear tasks; although infiltration is also risky, if the task difficulty accepted isn't too high, it's still quite doable." That person explained.
His companion listened, contemplatively touching his chin, "Seems to make sense. Our small squad isn't fit for the frontal battlefield... That's decided, after breakfast we'll take new tasks."
"Oh, by the way, do you know where to take tasks? Do we return to the secret realm?" He thought of a question, continuing to ask.
"No need." That person waved and said, "In the dormitory training field there's a bulletin board; the people at City Lord's mansion put tasks on the board, we can take tasks at the training field."
As he spoke, he glanced around, leaned closer, and whispered, "Let me tell you, I have relatives working in City Lord's mansion, I can get them to leave us some good tasks."
"Really." His companion looked at him in surprise, giving him a sense of joy from the inside.
"Count on you then!"
"Rest assured, leave it to me."
Lu Yu moved his ears, taking in all the information, including the part where the two whispered among themselves.
It's not that the person couldn't use spiritual power transmission, but rather he intentionally spoke softly to conceal it. After he finished, people approached them to talk, all intending to join their squad.
Lu Yu wasn't interested in the rear enemy infiltration tasks; staying on the front battlefield wasn't very dangerous for him as long as those ahead could hold their ground, he wouldn't be harmed.
Besides, he could snipe from a distance, making it even safer. No need to take tasks and venture into dangerous enemy rear areas.
His goal was to farm experience points, not Contribution Points, and enemy rear tasks didn't tempt him.
An hour later, personnel dispatched from the City Lord's mansion arrived at Lu Yu's villa entrance, specifically delivering him a task.
"Stop the Witch Spirit Race's Totem Summoning Ceremony."
Lu Yu stared at the City Lord's mansion specialist before him, furrows forming, "Couldn't someone else go?"
The City Lord's mansion specialist held out the task issuance book with both hands, saying, "Jing Commander recommended Mr. Lu, thinking only Mr. Lu could undertake this great responsibility."
Lu Yu was speechless, "Jing Commander? I don't know him."
[Task: Stop the Witch Spirit Race's Summoning Ceremony triggered]
