Slaying a Second-Tier Rat
The fat Foundation Establishment tried to escape the moment the Sanskrit protective wall collapsed, but was entangled by the Second Tier Gold-Devouring Rat leading the swarm.
Although the latter is far inferior to the Fat Giant's Foundation Establishment cultivation techniques, as long as the Fat Giant's Foundation Establishment cannot kill him with a single blow, the Second Tier Gold-Devouring Rat only needs to hold him off for a moment. Once the surging swarm of rats arrives, they can enjoy the delicious and juicy flesh and blood of the Foundation Establishment along with the lucky ones of their clan.
Unable to escape his Foundation Establishment, the fat man cursed again, "Damn you, you immortal!" Instantly, his entire body radiated Buddhist light, his skin sprouted golden foil, and he transformed into a ten-foot-tall Vajra with sideburns, his angry eyes blazing, his appearance solemn and dignified.
With a single punch, the Second Tier Gold-Devouring Rat was unable to dodge and its tail was struck by the heavy blow, turning into a blurry mass of flesh and blood.
Taking advantage of its pain, the fat giant, transformed from Foundation Establishment cultivator, grabbed the half of the Second Tier Gold-Devouring Rat's tail that was still attached to its body, and lifted it up forcefully, intending to crush and flatten it.
The swarm of rats had already attacked. The Second Tier Gold-Devouring Rat let out a short, urgent roar. The Gold-Devouring Rat linked head to tail, forming a thick, dark gray whip. With a sharp screech from the Second Tier Gold-Devouring Rat, the whip lashed down fiercely at the fat giant.
Faced with the black whip formed by the swarm of rats, the fat Foundation Establishment reached out to grab it. Countless Gold-Devouring Rat desperately gnawed at the Buddhist light emanating from his palm. Gold-devouring rats were constantly burned to death by the Buddhist light, but Gold-Devouring Rat continued to rush forward one after another.
The Buddha light on the fat Foundation Establishment palm dissipated at a visible speed. When it completely collapsed, the Gold-Devouring Rat on the outer edge were also shaved off by the Buddha light, leaving a pile of black, smelly flesh and blood in the already low mine tunnel.
At this point, the Gold-Devouring Rat, following their leader's orders, stopped scavenging the corpses of their own kind and continued to desperately pounce on and tear at the fat Foundation Establishment.
After countless Gold-Devouring Rat died, the first lucky one finally got to taste the sweet flesh and blood of Foundation Establishment. This drove the Gold-Devouring Rat even more mad, and soon the fat Foundation Establishment cultivator was covered in wounds.
Seeing that the Vajra Dharmakaya was about to be destroyed, he first squeezed the second-order gold-eating rat in his hand. The latter's shrill cry had no effect anymore. The fat foundation-building fingers formed a Buddha seal, and a "" Buddha seal was printed on the palm of his hand.
The Second Tier Gold-Devouring Rat could no longer break free. Its flesh and bone marrow gradually dissolved under the reflection of the Buddha's Seal, until it became a pool of foul-smelling pus.
"Damn it!" After completing these Foundation Establishment exercises, the Vajra Dharma Body could no longer be maintained. Even after annihilating a Second Tier Gold-Devouring Rat, there was no sign of relief on his face.
Three Heavenly Thunder Seed were unleashed in quick succession, briefly creating a blank space in the swarm of Gold-Devouring Rat in front of him, which was then quickly filled by even more Gold-Devouring Rat surging forward.
After swallowing the pill, the wounds that had been gnawed on the fat man's Foundation Establishment rapidly healed, and his face had returned to normal.
However, this is only the surface. For these Buddhist disciples who cultivate the physical body, every bit of flesh and vital energy they lose is precious and takes several years to recover.
It's true that one of the Second Tier Gold-Devouring Rat died, but the swarm's arrogance hasn't been suppressed. However, without unified command, their targets have become scattered.
Aside from the majority of the Gold-Devouring Rat still desperately rushing towards the Fat Foundation Establishment, a small portion of the rat swarm diverted towards the Qi Refinement cultivators who were fighting alongside the Fat Foundation Establishment cultivator against the rats, giving the Fat Foundation Establishment a slight respite.
However, the Qi Refinement cultivators had few ways to deal with the surging rat horde that even the large Foundation Establishment could only fight desperately with, and they were overwhelmed by the rats one by one.
The array master who had fought alongside Kang Dabao was still staring blankly at the Second Tier array plate before he died. It wasn't until a Gold-Devouring Rat pounced on him that he glared with bloodshot eyes and shouted, "So that's how it is! I understand! I understand!"
The loud roar drew the attention of many people in the arena, including the fat Foundation Establishment. However, no miracle occurred. All they saw was the array master being torn to pieces and swallowed by the rat swarm.
Not long after Foundation Establishment, Fatty found himself in a perilous situation again, facing a swarm of rats alone, his life hanging by a thread.
The situation on the other end is equally dire.
Ming Yue is dead, but Sect Leader Kang Da has no time to mourn for his theoretical maternal uncle. His Delusion-Breaking Golden Eyes are quite powerful, and naturally, he has also been resented by the Second Tier Gold-Devouring Rat.
But then it bit off Ming Yue's head, held it in its mouth, and with a flick of its long, thin tongue, sucked out all the blood and marrow.
Even while doing all this, it did not stop. Several magical Law Artifact that came to its aid failed to stop it, and it crashed its way to the Sect Leader Kang Da.
The wounds on this ugly creature's back were even more gruesome, displaying a variety of colors including yellow, red, black, and purple. The whites of its eyes were bloodshot from the intense pain emanating from the wounds on its back.
He exhaled a black gust of wind, mixed with a foul Blood Qi, which, like a knife, tore many more layers of Sect Leader Kang Da's robe.
The latter's supposedly Delusion-Breaking Golden Eyes could no longer be used. His small eyes were swollen like walnuts, and turbid tears mixed with blood streamed down his face. He was in so much pain that he could barely see.
The White Bear Fang Banner was summoned by Kang Dabao once again. At this time, the two layers of restrictions, "Strengthen Heart" and "Forge Courage the Gallbladder," had lost their effect. The fear on the faces of the cultivators was so intense that it was almost tangible. This First-Tier Supreme-Grade Law Artifact did not have the ability to turn the tide.
A white bear image appeared on the White Bear Fang Banner, stopping the evil wind from the Second Tier Gold-Devouring Rat.
The latter's face contorted with extreme anger, and with a twitch of its fleshy tail, the mystical light emanating from the white bear's avatar dimmed considerably.
Kang Dabao knew things were going badly. Although this Second Tier Gold-Devouring Rat was the weakest among its kind and far inferior to Foundation Establishment True Cultivator, it was still not something he could withstand with his meager abilities.
The sound of silver bells rang out again. The refined corpse, exuding a dense aura of death, met the attacking Second Tier Gold-Devouring Rat, but was defeated in one blow. The Second Tier Gold-Devouring Rat swung its claw and almost cut it into several pieces on the spot.
This corpse, refined by Sect Leader Kang Da for a long time, is being used to fight enemies for the first time, and will soon be buried in the corpse-nurturing ground for further cultivation.
The Second Tier Gold-Devouring Rat continued its momentum, opening its massive jaws wide, its yellow black teeth covered in blood and debris, poised to bite off Sect Leader Kang Da, plump head.
Just as Kuai En and the others were about to come to the rescue, a bright sword light broke through the exit that had been tightly blocked by the Gold-Devouring Rat swarm.
The sword light cascaded down like a silver river, chilling to the bone, illuminating the dark mine tunnel as if it were daytime.
The sword light, having broken through the swarm of rats, did not cease. It struck the back of the Second Tier Gold-Devouring Rat's head, and Kang Dabao watched helplessly as the beast's two red lantern-like eyes instantly lost their luster, and it crashed heavily to the ground.
The sword light faded, but the mine tunnel was not filled with darkness again; at this moment, light was already flickering at the exit.
A Daoist priest dressed in Hemp Robe and Black Shoes walked in, sword in hand. Frosty vapor rose from the tip of the sword, as if even the air flowing by would be split in two.
The remaining Gold-Devouring Rat at the entrance of the hole were too frightened to move, squeaking incessantly, their initial frenzy completely gone.
The Daoist priest walked slowly, but quickly arrived in front of Kang Dabao. After examining him carefully for a while, he finally let out a long sigh, "Good, it's good that he's not dead!"
"Uncle-Master!" Sect Leader Kang Da gave a bitter smile. He hadn't panicked yet, after all, he had the gourd to save his life.
He never expected that the Daoist Black Shoes would travel such a long way to rescue him, and a warm feeling welled up in his heart. He thought to himself, "So this is what it feels like to have someone to rely on."
