The Desert Storm Slash, it was Nie Yuan’s most powerful Combat Technique, which allowed him to form an energy blade dozens of meters long by gathering a large amount of Wind Element.
However, if one took a closer look, they would notice that the energy blade was composed of countless tiny blades, which would tear the enemy into shred in an instant upon contact.
From a microscopic perspective, it could even cut through cells.
It was a terrifying Combat Technique.
And now, this terrifying technique was radiating brilliance on the battlefield.
The next moment, Nie Yuan, holding the massive energy blade, leaped into the air and slashed toward the incoming Bull-headed Humanoid creature, Bull Demon.
*Swoosh!* Tearing through the air, the enormous energy blade came bearing down.
“An Energy blade…” a murmur escaped from Bull Demon as he looked at the cyan energy blade falling from the sky, his pupils slightly contracting.
Given his strength, he could naturally sense the threat posed by this energy blade.But, a cold smile tugged the corners of Bull Demon’s lips, as if he had thought of something.
[No matter how powerful the move is, it would be in vain if it can’t even hit the target. Moreover, I still have some cards up my sleeve.] Thinking this, a purplish-black halo suddenly flickered deep in Bull Demon’s eyes.
“Anti-Gravity Field,” muttering softly, an inexplicable force emerged in the void.
The next moment, a round of purplish black illusory halo appeared under Nie Yuan.
“What’s this?” Amazed, Nie Yuan had a slight change in his expression, sensing the purple-black illusory halo. Nonetheless, as he had already unleashed the energy blade, he could not turn back.
“Go to hell!” Roaring thunderously, Nie Yuan increased his output of Spiritual Energy.
However, just at this moment…
*Boom…*
His body suddenly shook as an inexplicable force assailed him.
Nie Yuan felt as if an invisible wall had appeared in front of him.
With a muffled sound, half his body was bounced back.
More frighteningly, a sense of weightlessness struck him.
For a moment, he lost partial control of his body.
“Shit!” Nei Yuan’s face abruptly changed; he could not help but feel a sense of tightness grip his heart.
But before he could react, with a roaring boom, a fearsome force struck him.
“It’s too late.” Lightly laughing, Bull Demon swung the massive ax.
*Boom!* Accompanied by a thunderous boom, Nie Yuan was sent flying, like a shooting star. What was even more astonishing was that after flying for two kilometers, he slid on the ground for another hundred meters.
*Cough, cough…* Nie Yuan broke into a series of coughs, his face pale as paper. In his lower abdomen, there was a wound that almost split in half. It was half a meter long, and he was profusely bleeding from it. One could even see his innards as well.
The wound was gruesome, and horrifying.
…
At this moment, it seemed that the entire battlefield had become silent, noticing the situation of the central battlefield.
“Did the Mayor lose? Even the Tier-2 Mayor was defeated?” A voice, seemingly from nowhere, suddenly broke the deathly silence, bringing the entire battlefield to silence for a moment.
Slowly raising their gazes, everyone vaguely saw a demonic figure with a Bull’s head and a Humanoid body, standing against the wind. In an instant, it covered everything, shrouding everyone’s minds.
Everyone was terrified, extremely terrified.
And while everyone was reeling from this terror, a chill gripped everyone’s heart.
[How could a Mutant Beast of this level exist?]
While everyone was finding it difficult to accept, the Mutant Beasts showed no hesitation.
For a moment, more than half of the entire Sunset City fell into chaos…
…
At this time, not far from Sunset City, in a suburban area…
*Tap, tap, tap…” Amid sounds of rapid footsteps, a small figure could be seen running through the forest in panic.
On a closer look, his chest appeared to have been caved in, bearing the imprint of a fist.
This one punch had almost robbed him of half his combat power. So much so that even the strongest ninja of Japan had to flee in embarrassment.
“How, just how can such a small thing have so much power?” Recalling that Golden Ant, Sato still could not believe it. A Mutant Ant just the height of a fist had sent him flying hundreds of meters with just one punch.
If he did not have some tricks up his sleeve, that punch would have taken his life.
However, even so, he was in a precarious state now.
“No, I must bring the reincarnation of Yamata no Orochi back! Once I’m there… ” Wiping the bloodstains from the corner of his mouth, Sato tightened his grip on the three-headed Snake in his arms.
However, at this moment, as if discovering something, Sato’s eyes suddenly brightened as he caught sight of a tall and beautiful figure on the road ahead the next moment.
He recognized the tall and beautiful figure. She was one of the most famous prodigies in China, the Flame Princess, Ling Er.
“Miss Ling, please help me, a Mutant Beast is chasing me, help me block it for a moment, I am a delegate of Japan…”
“Miss Ling…”
Shouting in an excited and surprised voice, Sato even turned his head and glanced back at the Golden Ant that had just emerged from the deep forest.
“Help you?” A smile filled with an indescribable charm curled Ling Er’s lips.
However, for some reason, seeing this smile, a bad feeling suddenly surged in Sato’s heart.
At this moment, if he were to look back, he would surely discover that the Mutant Beast chasing him, the Golden Ant, was already standing still with its arms crossed.
“Why?” Sato felt suspicious, but Sato did not turn back, and kept rushing toward Ling Er.
At this moment, he had no choice. The Flame Princess, Ling Er, was one of the rare prodigies in China, and his last beacon of hope.
And just as he was about to approach the figure not far away…
*Whizzzz…*
A breeze blew on his face.
The next moment, Sato felt a tightness around his neck.
Sato’s eyes went wide, horrified at the sight of an arm formed of Spiritual Energy firmly grabbing his neck.
“You…” In a voice full of disbelief, the three-headed Slytherin slipped off Sato’s hands.
Picking up Slytherin, Ling Er affectionately caressed it. Then, without even looking at Sato, she walked slowly toward the nearby Golden Ant.
“Eldest Sister…” Golden Ant greeted in a very respectful manner, lowering his proud head.
Golden Ant naturally remembered the Eldest Sister who had saved it from the hands of the Humans.
If he owed the Divine Tree for cultivation, then Ling Er was like his second parent.
“It seems like you’ve been doing well lately.” With melodious laughter like tinkling of silver bells, Ling Er gently put down Slytherin in her hands.
Then, she ordered, “Tell Bull Demon and the others to retreat. The Chinese reinforcements have arrived, and I can’t intercept them.”
“Yes, Elderest Sister.”
Without hesitation, Golden Ant gladly accepted the order.
…
Shortly after Golden Ant left with Slytherin, Ling Er slowly turned around and looked at Sato, who was being firmly held by a hand of Spiritual Energy by his neck.
“Did you see it?” Ling Er asked with a smile, watching the incredulous Sato.
“No, no…” Sobbing, Sato, whose face had turned red due to lack of oxygen, looked at Ling Er with a gaze full of horror.
[A prodigy of China, one of the most famous, is actually…] Before he could continue with his thoughts, an extremely cold voice echoed in the void.
“Anyone who plans against my Misty Mountains will die, not just you. Even your Japan behind you shouldn’t expect an easy time.” As the words fell, a crack rang as Sato’s head tilted to one side.
Only fear and disbelief remained faintly on his face.
