Devouring the Starry Sky: Cultivation Makes Me Stronger — Chapter 21

Of course.

The price of a Beginner Lord Level Fire Scale Three-tusked Boar was worth several monsters of the same level.

"Beep! An unknown communication number is requesting access."

Luo Shen tapped to accept.

The moment the connection went through, a steady middle-aged man's voice sounded.

"Brother, I'm Chen Qinglong, captain of the Azure Dragon Squad. I've contacted the Yanshan Squad members inside. We're preparing to join forces and launch a charge. How many people do you have over there?"

The other party sounded somewhat anxious.

Clearly, the situation had already become extremely critical, leaving them no time to leisurely analyze everything.

"How strong are you?" Luo Shen asked.

The other side froze, clearly not expecting Luo Shen to ask that.

But he quickly recovered and said at a rapid pace, "The Yanshan Squad has three High-level Warlords. Their captain is pretty strong and should be able to hold off that Bloodthirsty Tank. I'm a Beginner War God, so leave the Fire Scale Three-tusked Boar to me. As long as we can open up a path and rendezvous, we can definitely help them escape!"

"Leave the Fire Scale Three-tusked Boar to me."

Before the other party could ask anything else, Luo Shen directly hung up.

Looking at the monsters continuously battering the staircase's support pillars below, the building's stairs were on the verge of collapse. Yet Luo Shen's gaze remained fixed on that dazzling flash of red—the Fire Scale Three-tusked Boar!

If he had been alone, he naturally would not have bothered with such futile effort.

With such an enormous beast horde, he could kill himself from exhaustion and still not slaughter them all, let alone carve out a path to save anyone.

But now that he had reinforcements, it was worth trying.

"This is a good chance to challenge a Beginner Lord." Luo Shen smashed through the office building's glass and leaped down. As he fell, he fiercely kicked off the wall, shooting forward like an arrow.

Meanwhile.

On the other side of the commercial plaza, the Azure Dragon Squad was hiding.

"Captain, the stairs are shaking badly. They probably won't last more than five minutes." One Azure Dragon Squad member observing the situation anxiously said, "What did they say over there? Should we make a move?"

Chen Qinglong gave a helpless smile. "He only said to leave the Fire Scale Three-tusked Boar to him."

"Captain, there really is a madman charging in alone!" The Azure Dragon Squad member suddenly cried out anxiously, his voice full of disbelief. There were over a thousand monsters!

Hearing this, Chen Qinglong hurried to the window to look.

On the distant street.

A figure shot straight toward the surging beast horde like an arrow, plunging deep into its midst.

"Fuck! This guy's for real!"

Chen Qinglong immediately called out, "Brothers, grab your weapons! Our target is the residential building at Wanda Commercial Plaza! Carve out a path, and don't let that brother look down on us!"

Everyone answered in unison, "Yes!"

I'll post one chapter first. More tonight.

No martial artist capable of surviving in the Wilderness Area had poor eyesight.

Just watching Luo Shen charge into the beast horde alone, rampaging through it as though chopping melons and vegetables, whether Beast Soldier level monsters or Beast General Level monsters, none could last more than two exchanges against him.

This display from such a formidable expert immediately made the Yanshan Squad, who had been waiting for rescue, realize something.

Reinforcements had arrived!

Hope inevitably appeared in the eyes of the Yanshan Squad members, and their captain immediately gave orders as well. "A Sheng, provide fire support for our senior! Everyone else, wait for my signal. The moment the Azure Dragon Squad makes a move, we'll launch a countercharge!"

Rat-a-tat-tat-tat-tat-tat-tat...

A Sheng, the gunner, fired wildly, blazing flames erupting from his muzzle.

Although he had the advantage of firing from above, bullets falling from such a height could not strike vital areas such as the monsters' eyes or throats. They could only hit heavily defended areas such as their backs and heads, making it difficult to kill these tenacious monsters.

But his goal had never been to kill the monsters. It was to relieve Luo Shen's pressure.

On the street below.

The lone Luo Shen collided with the vast beast horde, instantly sending blood spraying everywhere. His blade flashed like thunder, his movement like lightning. With brutal force, he tore open a bloody path and charged straight toward the Fire Scale Three-tusked Boar.

Perfect Level Movement Technique!

Proficient Level Blade Technique!

Nine Heavens Thunder Blade Third Level!

With all three combined, Luo Shen was like a human-shaped meat grinder! Wherever he went, casualties filled the ground. With every sweep of his combat blade, several boar-like monsters died instantly. Blood flew through the air, and before the corpses even hit the ground, several more monsters had already fallen dead.

"Nine Heavens Thunder Blade Third Level—Mastered!"

The Nine Heavens Thunder Blade Third Level, whose proficiency had already been close to mastery, suddenly reached full mastery because of the sheer number of monsters around Luo Shen. Every strike accurately struck the vital points of several monsters, causing its proficiency to soar.

Nine Heavens Thunder Blade Fourth Level!

"Pop!"

He slashed out, and on top of the original three layers of hidden force, countless cells within his body erupted with another surge of power.

Four layers of hidden force burst forth at once, swift and fierce as fire, converging into that single slash. Its speed skyrocketed as it cleaved down toward a Beast General Level Black Scaled Ridge Pig charging at the very front.

Its head was sent flying in an instant!

Though the beast horde stretched endlessly as far as the eye could see, not a single monster could withstand even one exchange with Luo Shen!

Luo Shen rampaged freely, swinging his blade with exhilaration. Monster corpses gradually piled up around him, and the number of dead monsters rapidly climbed to an astonishing figure!

Luo Shen's brazen actions also caught the attention of the crimson Fire Scale Three-tusked Boar.

"Roar~~" Accompanied by an earth-shaking bellow, a fiery-red phantom seemingly Teleported across the distance between itself and Luo Shen, the sharp horn atop its head thrusting proudly toward him!

"Trying to sneak attack me, you little piece of trash!" Luo Shen cursed under his breath.

Yet his reactions were incredibly swift.

He sidestepped, his battle blade slicing across a monster's throat before naturally sweeping into an arc.

Clang!

The horn atop the Fire Scale Three-tusked Boar's head collided with the Ghost Shadow Battle Blade. The terrifying force generated shockwaves in the air, and the Beast Soldier level monsters closing in around them were shaken until blood flowed from their seven orifices.

A terrifying collision of force.

The Fire Scale Three-tusked Boar felt its head spin and instinctively shook its head.

Whoosh!

Yet Luo Shen's battle blade merely quivered sharply, carving a fierce arc through the air. As though completely unaffected, it chopped toward the Fire Scale Three-tusked Boar once more.

The moment the Fire Scale Three-tusked Boar regained its senses, the Ghost Shadow Battle Blade had already struck its right forehoof, leaving a deep, bloody gash.

"Roar!!"

The searing pain made the Fire Scale Three-tusked Boar let out an enraged roar.

Its crimson tail was wrapped in tough scales and lashed through the air like a whip, exploding the air with a sharp whoosh as it slammed down toward Luo Shen's head. Fortunately, Luo Shen had already sensed the danger and flashed sideways, dodging to the side.

Smack!

Terrifying force spread across the ground.

Even the granite floor, dozens of centimeters thick, was cracked open by the strike, leaving behind the mark of a tail whip. The surrounding floor was caught up as well, fine cracks spreading outward like a spiderweb.

"Just as expected of a Lord Level monster. It's fucking vicious!"

Looking at the shattered granite floor, Luo Shen's heart skipped a beat. If that terrifying tail whip landed on him, his little body probably wouldn't be able to take it!

After all, his combat suit was only 5-series. It couldn't withstand the ravaging of a Beginner Lord Level monster.

"Good thing the Nine Heavens Thunder Blade has reached the fourth level. Now I have the ability to face the Fire Scale Three-tusked Boar head-on."

Luo Shen secretly rejoiced.

.5 times the force output, coupled with physical abilities surpassing those of an Intermediate Warlord.

This infinitely narrowed the gap between Luo Shen and the Beginner Lord Level Fire Scale Three-tusked Boar. Though he was slightly at a disadvantage in terms of strength, he was far from being completely crushed.

Yet Luo Shen still grinned as he taunted, "Come on, come on, big piggy. Let big brother pamper you properly!"

"Roar~~"

The Fire Scale Three-tusked Boar let out another earth-shaking roar!

A vicious gleam flashed in its eyes!

Though it could not understand human speech, the Fire Scale Three-tusked Boar could still read the punchable expression on Luo Shen's face. It swore that it would tear this damned human to pieces!

Man and beast clashed once more!

Elsewhere.

As the instigators of this battle, the Azure Dragon Squad had not abandoned the fight either.
