At this moment, Wu Youren was truly dumbfounded: What the hell did Old Chen just do?
The hundreds of orbs of light he saw were just the vanguard; behind them lay an endless expanse of Weird Qi.
The boy sighed and muttered softly, "I know you prepared a surprise, but this is way too much of an overestimation of me, isn't it?"
He strongly suspected that there was a Great Knight among those Weird Qi, but at this moment, how could he be content without giving it a try?
Silently, he slashed forward with his first blade, instantly annihilating a ball of light, and the head shattered in the process.
Even the forwards are Knight Corpse Weird!
Fortunately, he hadn't even released his inner energy yet, but he had already easily killed one of them, even strangling its internal limbs.
Previously, when encountering the Corpse Weird, even the Knight Instructor's Battle Qi couldn't kill it with a single strike; it took several hits to defeat it.
It is evident that the Daoist aura has a very significant restraining effect on the Weird Race, and is much stronger than the Battle Qi of the Knight system.
Wu Youren must have held back at first when he drew his sword, because some of the Weird Race were quite intelligent.
But after a few cuts, he couldn't take it anymore; the smell was just too strong!
If the limbs inside the ball of light weren't strangled, things would be a little better.
But that would hinder his ability to discover the strange creatures—mainly because there were simply too many Corpse Weird.
If they were strangled, the resulting debris would fill the air... the stench would be unbearable.
He can hold his breath and protect his body with his internal energy, but this is not a long-term solution.
Seeing that the number of attacking orbs of light was increasing, he decisively released his inner energy.
A faint red hue appeared on the longsword, and a seven- or eight-meter-long red aura emanated from its tip, flickering erratically.
With a single slash, one could easily obliterate one or two orbs of light, and incidentally injure several more.
The scorching effect of the fire element's internal energy can effectively reduce the putrid odor.
Unfortunately, this level of attack consumes resources exponentially.
During the process of slaying the Weird Race, waves of heat surged forth, allowing Wu Youren to absorb them more quickly and increase his internal energy.
But he soon realized that the gains... couldn't cover the expenses!
The main problem is rapid absorption, which leads to excessive waste. Experience points are lost from the body during the process of being converted into internal energy.
Moreover, his body couldn't withstand such a sustained high-intensity transformation for long.
The hidden dangers that have been repaired will soon be damaged again!
In previous battles, he was able to reap experience points, with the gains far exceeding the losses.
However, the current intensity of continuous fighting makes it impossible to achieve the goal of "using war to sustain war," let alone gain any benefits!
Amidst the crisscrossing blades, Wu Youren quickly calculated the cost-benefit ratio of the battle.
He didn't even consider that he needed to reserve enough internal energy to deal with the Great Knight Ghost who might appear at any moment!
Or, other unexpected situations may arise.
Forget it, I'll stop thinking about it. I'll save some of my hidden strength and kill as many as I can now.
If you really can't hold on any longer, just run away.
Wu Youren knew very well that even if the motorcycle hadn't been affected by the battle and was still usable, he might not be able to outrun the Great Knight Ghost.
However, there's always a way out; he had some other methods.
Distracted by my analysis, I carelessly... shredded a crystal with my blade energy?
Wu Youren suspected he was seeing things. Well, it was too dark; it was easy to misperceive things.
Even if it's not wrong, it has to be wrong! Otherwise, it'll just be too frustrating!
However, the next moment, at the location where the crystal shattered, a burst of energy suddenly erupted, causing the besieging Weird Race to become agitated.
The energy released from the shredded crystals is not Weird Qi, but it is very tempting to many Weird Race!
"Damn it..." Wu Youren realized that his Dao heart was wavering!
Not only did they suffer losses of several thousand, but the Weird Race has also become even more frenzied!
At this moment, the surrounding area was shrouded in a large amount of Weird Qi, and several camps were affected.
However, teams that dare to camp near the foot of the mountain are usually quite well-prepared and have strong defenses.
In the distance, military units were cautiously approaching...
A large amount of Weird Qi broke through the blockade. Even though it was nighttime, they held their ground without hesitation!
However, the speed of these teams is less than impressive.
Few armies enjoy night battles, especially against the Weird Race, whose offensive power is far greater at night than during the day.
The camp, which was attacked by Weird Qi, was a military outpost. There weren't many people inside, but they were relatively elite.
"That's a damn Corpse Weird!" During the battle, the warriors could still communicate in time, "Everyone be careful, don't forget to Weird-Dispelling Powder!"
"Hmm, they don't seem very motivated to fight. Should we take a break?"
"You could try focusing on one enemy and avoiding harming innocent bystanders!"
"What the hell are you saying? There are innocent Weird Race?"
Those who frequently fight against the Weird Race know that warriors with strong blood and qi are very tempting to the Weird Race.
But the Weird Race tonight feels a little different.
Although they broke through the blockade and forced their way out, experienced veterans could sense that their offensive capabilities were somewhat lacking.
However, for the soldiers on the front lines, this is a good thing, and no one cares why—that's something for the big shots to consider.
The Weird Qi was palpable, filled with wails and a stench of decay, but the oppressive feeling wasn't actually that strong!
As a result, some soldiers were even able to observe the suspicious activities in other areas.
"Damn, that camp was wiped out... I wonder if anyone managed to escape!"
"They deserved to be wiped out. All they knew was that there were many strange creatures near the foot of the mountain... A bunch of stupid barbarians, do you even have the strength?"
The website address for this novel is. ".". The website owner has only one website; other websites may be discontinued at any time.
There were indeed some overconfident groups, and barbarians really did make up the vast majority.
"Who the hell are you calling a barbarian? Did I eat your blood?"
"Stop fooling around... Hey, look, at the center of the Weird Qi, there seems to be a Great Knight!"
Upon hearing this, everyone looked over and could vaguely see the faint glint of a blade.
"Red... it's red sword energy, isn't it? What kind of technique is this? Does someone actually practice Blazing Prairie? This is a forbidden technique!"
"It's just taboo for us. Among those important figures... well, never mind, I can't go into details!"
"Is this guy crazy? He's got the strength of Great Knight, run! Trying to fight him head-on is just asking for death!"
"His escape has put us under a lot more pressure. I think this Great Knight is a good person, very responsible!"
"Why did I think of someone... that... Weird-Hunting Maniac?"
At this moment, the Weird-Hunting Maniac was baring its teeth, having fought continuously for nearly an hour and a half, and felt it was nearing its limit.
And this flavor is way too strong!
The good news is that in such a short time, I've acquired a total of twelve items, including strange objects and crystals, which is considered a huge success.
There are five crystal pieces and seven strange objects... If two pieces hadn't been broken, there would still be seven crystal pieces!
Of the seven strange objects, four are rare and may be very valuable.
The bad news is that his Fireball Spell is completely useless.
In such a fierce battle, the movements of the Weird Race were unpredictable, making it seem as if magic was not as effective as a sword.
The earth-based Mud and Sand Spell is even less worth mentioning; that thing is purely for dealing with humans or Weird Transformation creatures.
It's utterly useless against this elusive and narrowly defined Weird Race!
Therefore, the current battle is still not at full power, which makes Wu Youren feel somewhat regretful.
"I'll fight for another ten minutes at most!" The boy secretly made a decision: once the time was up, he would retreat no matter what his condition was!
Whether Chen Quanxu's test had yielded results or not was none of his concern—he had truly done his best.
For someone determined to cross the line of moral boundaries, he felt that his actions could be described as saintly.
As he was making plans, a sudden, overwhelming sense of threat washed over him.
It was an extremely sudden feeling, appearing out of nowhere and instantly enveloping him, incredibly fast.
However, at this moment, Wu Youren felt a strange sense of calm.
Only one thought occupied his mind: Has it finally arrived?
Putting aside whether he could win, the wait alone had already tormented him for far too long.
He suddenly released his aura, covering his entire body, and a faint red glow emanated from the area around his body.
Then he pressed the master remote, and in an instant, explosions rang out one after another, creating a deafening roar.
There were Weird-Exterminating Grenade, explosive charges, and mechanical switches that emitted Weird-Dispelling Powder...
Especially those switches, which, while emitting Weird-Dispelling Powder noises, also burst open with a bang after twenty or thirty seconds.
Noise attacks are relatively rare, cheap, and effective, and were once his signature method. Recently, they have become more widely known, and more people are imitating them.
Wu Youren didn't want to leave any room for imagination, so he added a delayed fuse for self-destruction.
Whether he succeeded or failed, he detonated all the ambushes.
As for whether there might be a second Great Knight Ghost, he wouldn't consider it. If he couldn't deal with this one, there was no point in thinking about it anymore, right?
At the same moment, the long sword in his hand also shone brightly with red light, and the sword energy it emitted was more than twenty meters long.
The series of explosions not only alerted the military outpost camp, but also camps three or four kilometers away.
Even the defenders on the ridge, desperately rebuilding the blockade line, couldn't help but be astonished, "Who's fighting so desperately?"
True veterans can usually tell that this is neither a hunt for the Weird Race nor reinforcements advancing during a breakthrough.
It's that kind of desperate tactic of fighting to the death with the enemy, or a violent outburst to create an opportunity to escape.
Wu Youren, who was located at the epicenter of the explosion, believed he had considered everything very carefully.
The sudden release of his protective internal energy allowed him to withstand this wave of impact.
The Weird-Dispelling Powder and six Weird-Exterminating Grenade can also create considerable chaos.
The impact on the Great Knight Gui might not be significant, but at the very least, it should be able to hinder the opponent's attacks.
However, just as the shockwave erupted violently, the surrounding chill intensified abruptly.
A shadowy, indistinct figure suddenly appeared out of nowhere.
It was a giant hand, over 500 meters long, that lunged down at the boy at the center of the explosion.
Wu Youren swung his longsword, delivering three swift strikes to the sky.
