The sun leaped up the next day, its dazzling light piercing the fog and falling into the dense woods, with the earth enshrouded in misty haze.
Whiz!
A glowing flying boat sped by, cutting through the distance.
With its defensive array activated and sailing at an incredible altitude, it swiftly shot across the skies towards Guanlan Mountain, which was by now not far off.
Aboard the flying boat.
The First, Second, and Third Elders of the Huang Family of Guanlan Mountain stood at the front of the boat, their brows furrowed and their expressions cautious as they surveyed the land below. Every breath of their divine sense was extremely careful, scanning the woods and valleys below.
The closer they got to Guanlan Mountain, the more attentive and anxious they became.
They had all survived the great beast tide at Dayue Black Market, where they personally witnessed an inferior third-tier Eight-Armed Blade Mantis killing countless individuals and causing severed heads to roll.
The Eight-Armed Blade Mantis that had appeared on their doorstep was just as menacing.
The combined efforts of the Patriarch and the Family Head were almost insufficient for combatting this beast.
One could imagine just how formidable this creature could be.
“Did we find where it is?
“And, did we find any trace of any people? Is someone controlling the beast to attack our people?”
The First Elder of the Huang Family, unable to find any traces with his divine sense, grew increasingly uneasy while having bouts of annoyance.
Something’s wrong! Something’s wrong! Where had that creature disappeared to?
“No sign of them.”
“Did they run away?
The Second and Third Elders exchanged soft words. The Second Elder with murderous intent, while the Third Elder speculated hesitantly.
The First Elder of the Huang Family gently shook his head, his expression serious as he looked at the ground below. He couldn’t pinpoint exactly why, but he had an unsettling feeling, which left him slightly terrified.
“We’re nearing the family grounds; we’ll discuss it when we get there, ” commanded the First Elder of the Huang Family, his voice tense.
Whiz!
The flying boat shot through the air, advancing towards Guanlan Mountain at a speed comparable to a high-tier second-grade beast tamer.
What they didn’t notice was that, hidden within the clouds a few kilometers ahead, a fearsome Eight-Armed Blade Mantis puppet beast, more than a meter in size and equipped with a high-grade invisibility talisman, a concealment talisman, and a flight talisman, was patiently biding its time.
Looking at the second-tier, high-grade defense array enveloping the exterior of the flying boat, it silently counted down.
“Five.” “Four.” “Three.”
“Two.”
“One.”
At lightning speed, the flying boat tore through the sky, ready to penetrate the cloud ahead in a blink of an eye.
The next moment.
“Buzz! ”
All of a sudden, two rays of talisman light shot out from within the clouds and fell on the defense barrier of the flying boat. The unique force of the two high-grade, second-tier breakthrough talismans made the faces of the three Elders of the Huang Family change drastically.
“Boom!”
With the explosion of the two breakthrough talismans, the defense barrier of the flying boat cracked a hole immediately, and several array nodes sustained damage and shattered.
Right after that, a terrifying force that made their hairs stand on end erupted from within the clouds.
An ambush! Could that Eight-Armed Blade Mantis plan an ambush?! The First Elder of the Huang Family was terrified, his pupils contracted, and in sheer horror, he cried out, “Watch out!”
In an instant, array flags appeared beside him. Given half a breath, he would be able to set up a defensive formation.
But the creature in the clouds was not an ordinary second-grade beast.
It was a second-tier, high-grade puppet beast Eight-Armed Blade Mantis-commissioned with materials from a low-grade third-tier Blade Mantis as its core.
Renowned for speed and slaughter.
The moment the First Elder of the Huang Family summoned the array flags, his vision was consumed by a blinding ray. As the gleaming blade filled the sky, he ‘saw’ the flying heads of the second and third elders.
The two headless bodies on the spot spurted out hot blood. Only at this moment did the First Elder of the Huang Family manage to see the real attacker.
A horrifying creature, over a meter in size, grim-looking, and with eight dangerous blade arms!
“Splat!”
His head also flew off.
But before it flew off, he saw a drop of blood accumulate on one of the blade arms of the Eight-Armed Blade Mantis and eventually drop from the blade tip.
That was the blood of his beheaded self!
In one pause and one move.
Instantly assassinated three Cultivators within the Foundation Establishment Realm!
One of them was at the ninth level of the Foundation Establishment Realm, and two were at the eighth level!
Seeing the fruits of his labor before him, the Dao Body Puppet felt as though its metallic body were ‘boiling with blood’ and ‘surging with emotions’.
The Dao Body Puppet was terrified, thinking, “Dreadful, this speed is too dreadful!”
Constructed with Light Shadow Stone as its core material and enhanced with the blade arms and monster core material of the low-grade third-tier Blade Mantis, this beast was incomparably agile, which meant it could move much more quickly.
The horrifying blade arms, on the other hand, showcased its unparalleled slaughter speed.
Once, the low-grade third-tier Mantis had killed a pseudo-Dan Realm cultivator and dozens of human clan cultivators in a flash, just like that.
Now, under its ambush, it had similarly instantly slaughtered three Foundation Establishment cultivators from the Huang Family!
Before they could even deploy their arrays, it had already sent them to hell!
Whiz!
Surprise was only a moment’s matter. In the next instant, the Dao Body Puppet soared again, aiming at the dozens of Huang Family cultivators in the boat who, shocked by the sudden changes, were looking to escape..
