Chapter 898: Flashy Killing
Sam went on with the killing in a flashy way.
As the two barbarians attacked him from both sides in perfect coordination and one with his spear and the other with his saber.
Sam used his staff and lightning element to cause a commotion, every block he did was like a lightning strike as he attracted a lot of attention, even the people far away could see the silver lightning crackling.
As for the attacks he made, they are even flashier. He didn't hold back at all. Naturally, his original style is to finish the battle as fast as possible and then kill the enemy as quickly as possible, whether it takes a discreet move or a flashy move, he never really cared, but now that he decided to go high-profile, one must say he is succeeding in it greatly.
When the first barbarian neared him, he took a look at him and finished this duo instantly. Their heads exploded like watermelons and they fell down just like that as Sam moved towards the next target.
This person is also an Astral Plane Initiation stage expert, but he is actually a middle-stage expert which is a sub-stage higher than Sam.
Sam is confident that he could take on a person of that level if he fought properly, but he is not confident enough to take on multiple opponents of that same level.
His body changed from just have lightning enveloped him to a complete lightning fusion.
He is sure that he has to become serious if he is to fight a man powerful than himself in Astral Plane.
He used the repel style to move dexterously as he swung his staff at the Barbarian, from the looks of it, there is only two minutes of time for the next opponent to join them, so he has to be fast.
The barbarian didn't back down, he can clearly guess Sam's cultivation and he is not afraid. In fact, he is extremely confident that he could take him and clash with his broadsword.
Sam managed to get a feel of this man's strength, he is not too strong. Not something he couldn't overcome with his multiple abilities.
Along with the repel style, Sam started using the void style, even though his strikes were being blocked the lightning element and void style combination are hard to overcome.
The barbarian started getting a lot of push back and the energy explosions caused his arms to get weaken. Even though the lightning didn't have a complete crushing effect on him, his muscles are continuously being subjected to this electric shock, and started getting paralyzed.
The barbarian also realized that he was losing and shifted to defensive, he didn't want to lose Sam, so he could only make him wait and stick around until the other companions come.
All of this happened in one and a half minutes, the battle is that fast and quick, there is only thirty seconds for the barbarian to join the battle, in fact, the coming one already took out his spear ready to throw it.
Sam thought of something and smiled as he swung the staff at the man, but right before the staff and the sword made contact, the staff disappeared and the lightning blade, which was found in Indra's Palace of inheritance that formerly belonged to Arman appeared in his hands.
His spirit is unlocked a lot and it has enhanced lightning elemental affinity.
The silver lightning covered the saber and it slid under the broad sword and he managed to stab him in the heart.
Sam didn't wait a single moment after the void-style explosion that caused the heart to break literally and forcefully moved the body to block the flying spear that came towards him.
The spear pierced through the barbarian's body and almost hit him, but he managed to avoid it by moving to the side.
Sam looked at the barbarian that is coming and thought for a moment, the next one is also a middle-stage initiation stage level cultivator and he has to recover before he engaged, so he decided to use something else to buy some time.
He activated dark elemental energy and started using necromancy as well as let Specter out before finally releasing Yanwu.
He knew that the last battle would attract a few more people than before. In fact, maybe all the barbarians that are involved in this 'carpet bombing' might be moving towards him. So, there is no point in holding back and he has to use the chain for fear to his advantage.
After the ranged spear attack, the next opponent didn't follow up with another attack instantly, he is wary of Sam and wanted to drag time.
The unconscious fear that he would end up just like his friend who died a few moments ago, is really working its charm.
But this time, he has more opponents than Sam himself.
Not only did Sam let Yanwu out and created an undead, he also threw a small explosive out in the air.
This is the signal for one of the subordinates to join him.
It would be incredibly stupid of him to bear all the weight himself even for showing off that would be a bit too much.
Sam focused on his recovery while looking out for the barbarians that might join them and soon picked up three people nearing them, they will be here in the minute, the undead barbarian is now clutching to his friend with all his strength and Yanwu used this chance to attack him from the sky.
Sam took a few swigs of wine and some recovery pills. The heavenly wine is almost finished, it would be over by the end of this trip.
He skimped and saved for the past few years, but it seems like it is time for him to finish it, anyway its potency decreased a lot after he reached the Astral Plane and he could barely recover his energy, as for the recovery of physical injuries and such, it could at most be sped up a bit.
He joined the fray after recovering and the barbarian is done. But the first undead is destroyed in process.
Now Sam and Yanwu are moving towards the three barbarians that are coming their way and one of his subordinates joined him.
He is a dragon hawk tribe member and a wind element user.
His hands already turned into claws as he moved along with Sam fiercely.
Out of the next three opponents, two of them are just the Initial stage of Astral Plane Initiation and one is at the Middle-stage of Astral Plane Initiation.
Yanwu and the subordinate clashed with the two weaker ones while Sam focused on the last one along with the new undead he created from the new corpse of the barbarian.
The battle became intense and flashier.
Sam used another signal to call for two more of his subordinates.
He is sure that this is going to turn into a full-blown war.
And he is going to win it no matter what.
As the middle stage barbarian dealt with the undead and changed his focus to Sam, a shadow rose from his shadow and stabbed him in the heart from the rear.
This is one of his shadow soldiers.
Since he reached the transcendent stage, Sam didn't focus too much on increasing the shadow count. He has human, yaksha, merman, an elf, a Naga and the shadows of two more beasts.
He finally settled on these seven shadows and focused more on grooming them. He is not a pure necromancer to focus too much on their numbers, so he focused more on grooming them and training them according to his will.
Now the Yaksha shadow is currently an inch away from destroying the heart of this middle-stage barbarian.
Even though he couldn't kill him, Sam can easily take over from here.
He used the wind element and a spear the barbarian threw at me to directly stab him from the front with ripple style.
The barbarian was involuntarily pushed back and the heart was stabbed by the shadow who was holding him in the place.
Yanwu and the subordinate are also done with their enemies, the new batch of barbarians who saw the three gruesome deaths also saw this.
Now there are four of them.
Sam really liked this gradual increase as they moved inwards towards the barbarians and he almost wanted to thank them for spreading too thin over the territory.
This is like dungeon farming in a videogame for him.
He would have time for them to move towards him in which he could brutally kill their friends and make sure that image imprinted in their minds while they are fighting and then killing them in the same way before their next set of friends all the while increasing the usage of his subordinates little by little.
He is kind of enjoying it as a smile crept on his face when he engaged with the next set of barbarians.
