He activated his lightweight skill, and in the blink of an eye, he was only three or four steps away from the red-haired wolf.
At this moment, a stench of hot air came from behind.
The first wolf demon he had just bypassed was now recklessly leaping at him.
If he turned to kill this wolf demon, it was highly likely that the red-haired wolf would escape.
By then, thousands of the beast army would overwhelm the three of them, leaving only a slim chance of survival.
A trace of ruthlessness flashed in Old Master Xu's eyes.
Without turning around, he slightly tilted his head to avoid a vital spot.
At the same time, he swung the Soul Shattering Saber in his hand downwards with force.
The blade's momentum was earth-shattering, successfully beheading the red-haired wolf, dropping both heads to the ground!
Meanwhile, his shoulder was bitten, and the sound of bones cracking followed.
Old Master Xu let out a muffled groan, his entire body surged with true strength, and with a backward palm strike, he sent the ambushing wolf demon flying away.
His entire right arm limply hung down, clearly unusable for the time being.
On the field, the three seasoned martial artists were all covered in blood, looking quite miserable.
Yet on their faces was a simultaneous victorious smile.
Because, with the death of the red-haired wolf, the beasts that had been desperately surging now all paused, revealing a look of confusion in their eyes.
Then, as if realizing something, they showed expressions of fear, turning to flee toward the direction of the Hundred Beasts Mountain Range.
Viewed from a high vantage point.
One could see that from the lake area where the red-haired wolf died, vast black waves spread rapidly in a fan-shaped pattern towards a certain direction.
On the Tai City ramparts, the martial artists who had been watching the beast tide army from afar clearly noticed the abnormality among the beast group, each showing a look of astonishment.
"This is... the beast group is dispersing!"
"Could it be, did Old Master Xu and the others succeed?"
"The beast tide has retreated, the beast tide has really retreated, hahaha!"
City Lord Li, whose brows had been furrowed all along, suddenly relaxed.
"In this beast tide, those four should be credited with the chief merit. When they return, they will receive their due rewards!"
"Marshal Yue, Instructor Han, you two go to receive them and ensure no harm befalls those who have done us meritorious service!"
"Understood!" Marshal Yue and Instructor Han responded respectfully.
"I'm going too!" Shi Caifeng, whose eyes had turned red from the battle in the past few days, had her cultivation rise to the Six Blood Realm through the trials, just a step away from a Full Cycle.
In fact, if she released her qi-blood with all her might, she could still contend with a Full Cycle warrior.
Without waiting for the City Lord's approval, she jumped from the city wall, creating a deep pit on the ground with a 'bang'.
Then, like a wild female leopard, she agilely advanced forward.
"I must also go and see!" Old Master Shi, fearing for his daughter's safety, also flashed from the city wall.
On the scene.
After Old Master Xu slew the red-furred wolf demon, the beast tide collapsed for miles.
The three gray-furred wolf demons that originally entangled Chief of the Escort Lin also had no intention of fighting, attempting to escape into the distance.
"Where do you think you're going!" Chief Lin was enraged, desperately blocking them.
Patriarch Fang and Old Master Xu also rushed forward and together killed two wolf demons, letting just one escape.
So, of the seven wolf demons comparable to ordinary martial artists, four died and three fled.
And despite their serious injuries, not one of Old Master Xu's group died, which was a truly remarkable achievement.
"That strike just now from the old master was indeed earth-shattering, killing the Beast King like slaughtering a pig!"
"I, Lin, have always been regarded as the second in Tai City, and inwardly felt some dissatisfaction. But seeing the old master's divine might today, I must yield!"
"You're too kind, if not for your assistance, I couldn't have achieved such a feat." Old Master Xu smiled, instinctively trying to stroke his beard but stopped himself halfway when he realized the inappropriate action.
The three martial artists, having narrowly escaped death, began to praise each other.
Suddenly, a cold wind blew, and the martial artists' extraordinary spiritual sense caused them to immediately break out in goosebumps.
"Something's wrong!"
Old Master Xu, whose skills were the deepest, was the first to react, swiftly retreating backward.
Turning his head, he was utterly shocked.
The Patriarch Fang, who had just exhausted his power fighting countless fierce beasts, was now in a state of utter exhaustion.
His neck was easily sliced by a thread of black light, his head slouched to the side, held only by a thin strand of skin!
"How... did you appear?" Patriarch Fang held his head with his hand, seemingly unable to believe that he was dying.
Monsters couldn't kill him, the beast tide couldn't kill him, but Lou Yi's sneak attack ended him effortlessly.
Patriarch Fang's eyes reflected endless unwillingness, resentment, and venom.
"You, I will wait for you in hell..."
"No need, thank you."
Patriarch Fang could never have imagined that such a perverse talent for disguise existed in this world.
Disguise (Active): Maximally reduce one's presence, allowing others to overlook it, capable of being sustained in dynamic situations.
The three martial artists, triumphant, had their alertness and vigilance drop to rock bottom.
Thus, Lou Yi found an opportunity and axed Patriarch Fang in one swift stroke.
Patriarch Fang could be said to have died most aggrievedly, providing Lou Yi with a full twelve points of energy.
Furthermore, the wound on his neck bizarrely did not bleed at all.
Lou Yi turned to face the furious and shocked Chief Lin, smiling: "Thank you, the three of you, for sparing Tai City from the beast tide calamity.
I will erect the finest gravestones for you and invite scholars to inscribe the most eloquent epitaphs, so the world will remember your contributions."
"How dare you!"
Chief Lin thrust his spear fiercely at Lou Yi, the spear tip shining with white light, unstoppable in its force.
Lou Yi retracted his smile, activating the Yellow Extreme Breathing Technique.
Five streams of secret blood flowed rapidly within him, his entire body burst with qi-blood, nearly breaking through the top of his head.
At the same time, the invincible belief of a martial artist arose in his heart.
Coupled with his terrifying qi-blood that far exceeded the limits of normal martial artists, he formed an intangible but real presence, enveloping Chief Lin.
Chief Lin felt a numbness all over his body, and fear involuntarily grew in his heart, exclaiming in shock: "Impossible, you've actually comprehended 'force'!"
You must know, even he, after decades of study, had only touched the threshold of 'force'.
However, since Chief Lin was a seasoned martial artist, he quickly banished the fear, lifting his silver spear to resist with great effort.
"Splitting Mountain."
The second wave of an intangible force spread over Chief Lin.
Lou Yi's entire strength concentrated at one point, his right hand's axe cleaving the heavens and earth, producing an ear-piercing sound of cutting through the air.
At this moment, his strength had surpassed twenty-five thousand pounds, more than double that of an ordinary Full Cycle, far beyond that of any martial artist.
But that was not enough.
"Dragon Piercing!"
The secret blood stimulated the thoracic cavity acupuncture points, and his blood qi erupted a second time, making all his muscles swell like small hills, uniformly flowing to his right arm like a stream.
The second new force combined with the first, reaching power of fifty thousand pounds!
"Soul Devouring!"
The additional qi-blood from just killing Patriarch Fang erupted a third time, increasing the power by thirty percent again, reaching a terrifying sixty-five thousand pounds!
'Boom!'
