Chapter 61: Chapter 61: Roar of a Hundred Beasts
Translator: 549690339
With a single swing, Lu Yun sent the charging Monohorn Wild Boar flying and thought to himself, “This Monohorn Wild Boar truly deserves its reputation as a Second Rank peak Demon Beast. Not only is its body robust, but its speed is also extraordinary. Unfortunately for them, I am their opponent.”
As a Meridian Passage Realm peak practitioner, Lu Yun’s strength reached a terrifying level, and his reaction speed far surpassed that of the same-ranked martial artists. He could easily handle the attack of the Monohorn Wild Boar.
“Heh!”
Unaware of the gap in strength between it and Lu Yun, the Monohorn Wild Boar that had been struck let out a roar and charged at Lu Yun again.
“You have courage, but you’re not worth praising.”
Lu Yun’s body agilely flipped, skillfully avoiding the Monohorn Wild Boar’s Death Charge. The tiger-head broadsaber in his hand spun down with the help of the force of his rotation.
Whoosh!
Swift like lightning, and as forceful as a mountain, the saber struck the grey horn on top of the Monohorn Wild Boar’s head.
With a snap, Lu Yun could clearly hear something hard breaking.
“Roar!”
The Monohorn Wild Boar roared crazily, its scarlet eyes flickering with an intimidating cold light. It turned out that the grey sharp horn on its head had been chopped off by Lu Yun, causing it unbearable pain.
“Whether it’s defense, strength, or speed, you’re far from a Third Rank Demon Beast!”
Lu Yun commented calmly and immediately moved, creating a phantom image, avoiding the Monohorn Wild Boar’s charge with a heavy, fierce, and extremely fast strike.
Splash!
Without much resistance, his saber pierced through the Monohorn Wild Boar’s neck, slicing through its hair, flesh, and bones.
Blood gushed out like a fountain from the smooth-edged wound.
The massive body of the Monohorn Wild Boar fell heavily to the ground, its legs unconsciously kicking. As blood continued to flow, its breath gradually weakened.
Once it completely lost its breath, the corpse on the ground and the blood turned into wisps of starlight and drifted away like smoke.
Even though it wasn’t Lu Yun’s first time witnessing this, he still felt it was both real and dreamlike.
Stepping into the vortex portal, Lu Yun appeared in a completely new environment.
Myriad Phenomena Tower’s eighth floor.
The Demon Beasts were still Second Rank peak Monohorn Wild Boars, but their numbers had increased from two to ten.
“This shouldn’t be a problem!”
Lu Yun uttered indifferently before disappearing in a flash.
Instead of directly confronting the ten Second Rank peak Monohorn Wild Boars, he appeared at their side, using his astonishing speed and agility to smoothly slide his long saber into the throat of one of the boars.
With a gush of blood, Lu Yun’s figure quickly retreated, avoiding a horn attack from the side.
He then pierced the eye of another Monohorn Wild Boar that had rushed to his back, destroying both its retina and brain center with a burst of sword qi.
After killing two Monohorn Wild Boars in a row like this, Lu Yun felt somewhat incredulous.
Back on the seventh floor, he killed the two Monohorn Wild Boars effortlessly and quickly without using much of his Pure Yang aggressive aura. Relying on his superfast speed and immense strength, he obliterated them and entered the eighth floor.
But now, the time and aura consumed to kill two Monohorn Wild Boars of the same rank had decreased even further.
“These Monohorn Wild Boars seem to have weak points. Attacking their eyes or throats have twice the effect.”
As Lu Yun was contemplating, the attacks of other Monohorn Wild Boars arrived. With a sidestep, he brushed past the nearest one, allowing the tiger-head broadsaber to smoothly penetrate through its weak abdomen.
Feeling the life of the Monohorn Wild Boar gradually fading, Lu Yun’s eyes brightened.
Although the abdomen wasn’t as vulnerable as the throat or the eyes, it was still one of the Monohorn Wild Boar’s weak spots.
“The best way to kill a Demon Beast is to find its weak spots and deliver a fatal blow!”
Next, Lu Yun moved among the remaining Monohorn Wild Boars, continuously seeking their weaknesses.
Eyes, anus, throat, heart – these were the primary weak spots, along with the slightly less vulnerable areas like the abdomen and neck.
However, it was difficult to attack these critical spots since the Monohorn Wild Boars had fast movement speeds, and striking them would require precise timing and agile footwork.
With each Monohorn Wild Boar falling, Lu Yun’s combat skills gradually improved.
When the last Monohorn Wild Boar disintegrated into energy and dissipated, Lu Yun’s gaze became increasingly resolute and confident.
“Whether it’s fighting against Demon Beasts or other Martial Artists, the key is to make the most of every attack!”
The ninth floor of the Myriad Phenomena Tower.
As soon as he arrived, Lu Yun sensed something unusual.
Looking around, he saw numerous dark shadows in his field of vision.
Lu Yun spotted at least fifty wild boars, each with a Grey Horn on their heads, exuding a powerful aura that was undoubtedly characteristic of Second Rank peak Demon Beasts.
Lu Yun could easily slay a single Second Rank peak Monohorn Wild Boar.
With ten Second Rank peak Monohorn Wild Boars, it would take a bit more time and effort, but he could still kill them all.
However, there were fifty in front of him now, making his scalp tingle.
A mayfly trying to shake a massive tree – a foolhardy endeavor.
But if there were enough mayflies, they could shake not just a large tree, but even mountains and planets.
The current Monohorn Wild Boars were few in number, but they were not mayflies – they were Second Rank peak Demon Beasts, with overwhelmingly stronger combined strength than most Martial Artists in the Meridian Passage Realm.
“No wonder this ninth challenge has made things difficult for those at the True Qi Realm. It really is troublesome…”
As Lu Yun’s eyes twinkled, he recalled the techniques and methods he had used during his earlier battles, and his heart had already made a decision.
Even without using combat techniques, relying on his powerful strength to brute force his way through, Lu Yun had some confidence in slaughtering these fifty Demon Beasts.
But that wasn’t what he wanted.
Drawing his tiger-head broadsaber, he charged forward.
When facing such crowded Second Rank peak Demon Beasts, most True Qi Realm Martial Artists would unconsciously feel intimidated, but not Lu Yun. Instead, he fearlessly attacked with great momentum.
Attack!
Due to the inertia from his charge, Lu Yun’s tiger-head broadsaber plunged downward from above with tremendous speed, accompanied by a piercing whistling sound. The Monohorn Wild Boar in front sensed something wrong and tried to dodge.
However, Lu Yun’s saber was too fast and powerful, and coupled with the suppression from his momentum, it cut straight down from the head of the Demon Beast.
It was as if a ferocious tiger had pounced, instantly tearing the Monohorn Wild Boar to pieces and causing a cloud of dust to rise as it charged into the other boars.
“Heh–Heh–”
Lu Yun’s powerful attack didn’t scare the other Monohorn Wild Boars; instead, it completely infuriated them, provoking their crazed, angry roars.
Dozens of Second Rank peak Monohorn Wild Boars roared in unison, their deafening cries causing the entire space of the ninth floor of the Myriad Phenomena Tower to tremble slightly.
