Chapter 448
448 A bloody battle to the end (4000 word chapter)
The huge rocks thrown by the flame King Kong were still like meteors, hitting the fortress’s protective shield. Each time, the ground of the entire fortress would tremble slightly.
Xia Pingan waited quietly in the fortress.
Except for the blazing King Kong, the rest of the nightmare corpses and horseshoe crabs couldn’t attack the fortress. They didn’t dare to get too close either as if they had been numb to such attacks. Most of the nightmare corpses gathered in the military camp, while some wandered around the fortress, surrounding it.
A few hours later, the sky in the spirit realm gradually darkened. After waiting for a while, a little Starlight appeared in the sky.
The Starlight was the human spirit bodies that had entered the spirit world.
As the sky darkened and the spirits appeared, the low-level gluttons that had been occupying the sky above the fortress and in the barracks began to swim toward the stars in the sky. The flaming King Kong’s attack frequency gradually slowed down and then stopped.
By the time the sky was filled with stars, the low-level horseshoe crabs around the fortress had already disappeared. Only the kun corpses and human-like monsters were entrenched near the camp. They had even lit a bonfire. Looking from a distance, the camp was very lively, but it was also very relaxed. The screams of the green-skinned kun corpses echoed in the wilderness, and could be heard from afar.
The huge Inferno King Kong was still standing in the camp, not moving at all, leaving only a huge black shadow in the wilderness.
Xia Pingan was ready!
“Your Majesty, I will make the protective cover of the fortress disappear for a short while. At the same time, I will dispatch two stone guardians out of the fortress from the main gate. When the protective cover disappears, Your Majesty can rush out from the side of the fortress and approach the military camp in a hidden way. The stone guardians will try their best to attract the attention of those gluttonous corpses and gluttonous insects. Your Majesty, please evacuate immediately!” Elder mu said to Xia Pingan.
“Alright, I got it!” Xia Pingan nodded and said,”get ready!” After saying that, Xia Pingan slid down from the city gate tower and ran toward the side of the fortress. After leaving the front of the fortress for about four to five kilometers, Xia Pingan stopped near the protective shield of the fortress and prostrated on the ground, waiting for the energy shield of the fortress to disappear.
After a few minutes, the fortress’s protective shield disappeared.
The moment the protective shield disappeared, Xia Pingan did not stand up. Instead, she rolled out of the fortress ‘protective area.
In the distance, the moment the protective shield disappeared, two stone guardians with glowing red eyes rushed out of the protective shield and strode towards the camp.
The protective cover of the fortress was too eye-catching, especially in the evening. Therefore, the moment the protective cover disappeared, those wandering zombies and monsters in the opposite camp had noticed the abnormal situation in the fortress at once. At the same time, they caught sight of the two stone guardians.
“Chi Chi Chi!” The green-skinned corpse let out a strange cry and charged at the two stone guardians. The two sides quickly collided in the wilderness between the fortress and the camp.
An intense battle instantly erupted!
The stone guardians strode forward, brandishing their flails and heavy swords. In the blink of an eye, they had turned a few of the green-skinned kun corpses at the front into meat paste.
The undead that had reached the stone guardians, especially the green-skinned ones, were no match for the stone guardians. The stone guardians waved their weapons and sent the green-skinned undead flying. Some of the undead were even stomped to death by the stone guardians ‘feet.
As soon as the nightmare corpses died, the remaining soul power in their bodies floated around in the wilderness like fireflies. In the blink of an eye, they were devoured by the other green-skinned nightmare corpses. The stone guardians of the fortress did not seem to be able to absorb soul power directly from the dead nightmare corpses like the spirit herders.
In order to devour the soul power of their companions, some of the green-skinned kun corpses even tore at each other, causing quite a bit of chaos.
Two monster-like high-level horseshoe crabs flew over from behind the kun corpse. With a strange roar, they pointed at the two stone guardians. The wilderness suddenly turned into quicksand, and the two stone guardians were trapped. Most of their feet were stuck in the quicksand, and they could not break free.
As the kun corpses rushed up, the stone guards in the quicksand continued to swing their weapons and kill them. However, the more they moved, the deeper they sank into the quicksand. Slowly, the quicksand reached their waists.
The large group of nightmare corpses rushed over and gradually drowned the two stone guardians.
……
At the same time, Xia ping ‘an was running wildly in the wilderness. He hid in the gray fog and rushed towards the camp from the side at his fastest speed.
The attention of all the nightmare corpses and the Horseshoe crabs in the wilderness had been attracted by the two stone guardians, so they didn’t notice at all. They didn’t expect Xia Pingan to attack the camp from the side.
……
By the time the stone guardians were drowned in the sea of nightmare corpses, Xia Pingan had already reached the edge of the military camp. The huge flaming King Kong stood in front of him like a towering mountain and skyscraper. It stood firmly in the military camp, no longer exuding the terrifying aura that it had during the day.
That camp was very simple and crude. It was surrounded by fences and walls made of twigs and stones. There were many pits and holes on the ground, which were the hiding places of some green-skinned kun corpses.
As Xia ping ‘an rushed to the foot of the flame Guardian, two green-skinned kun corpses suddenly appeared from the side and stood in front of Xia ping’ an. The two green-skinned kun corpses did not expect someone to rush into the barracks. Their eyes were wide open, and they were about to shout.
This time, he could not avoid it!
Xia Pingan sped up. Without a word, he slashed out with the flying radiance sword in his hand, directly beheading the two green-skinned kun corpses.
Before the two flying heads could roll to the ground, or before the soul power from the two corpses could fuse with his body, Xia Pingan had already leaped up. He tapped his foot on the back of the flaming King Kong’s foot, which was a few meters tall. Using his hands and feet, he climbed up the flaming King Kong’s calves, thighs, and torso at the fastest speed and rushed towards its head.
The body of the flame King Kong was not completely lustrous. Instead, it had a complex metal structure with a few gaps that could be used to exert force.
In less than a minute, Xia Pingan rushed to the top of the flaming King Kong’s head. He stepped on the flaming King Kong’s nose with both feet and stood in between its eyes.
Xia ping ‘an followed elder MU’s instructions and pressed her hand between the flaming Guardian’s brows. A piece of metal in the middle of the flaming Guardian’s brows immediately slid away from the side, revealing the Soul Stone inside.
The blazing flame Guardian’s Soul Stone was the size of a pumpkin. It was a hexagonal, snow-white crystal. At this moment, there were wisps of black mist swirling around the Soul Stone.
Xia Pingan pressed his hand on the soul Stone, gritted his teeth, and madly injected his soul power into the flame Guardian’s Soul Stone.
It was only then that the two golden spots of light in the air slowly flew up from below and were absorbed by Xia Pingan-they were the soul power of the two green-skinned kun corpses.
At this moment, in the wilderness far away, Xia Pingan saw the two stone guardians ‘necks completely sink into the quicksand. One of the stone guardians’ head was riddled with wounds. A green-skinned kun corpse had pierced its head with a sharp thorn. With a loud bang, its entire body turned into pieces and scattered. It had been killed.
All of a sudden, a green-skinned zombie pointed at the head of the flame Titan and shrieked. The shrill shriek echoed throughout the camp.
Xia Pingan had been discovered.
The entire military camp was alarmed. Even the nightmare corpses and insect monsters in the wilderness far away turned their heads and looked at the flame King Kong.
In the blink of an eye, more than 20 slashes of soul power were injected into the flaming diamond’s Soul Stone. The flaming diamond’s Soul Stone emitted a brilliant white light like an incandescent lamp. The white light immediately illuminated Xia Pingan’s figure in the high sky. Under the impact of Xia Pingan’s soul power, the black gas in the Soul Stone was like ink marks washed by clear water, becoming much fainter in an instant.
Xia ping ‘an could even see some black gas being squeezed out of the Soul Stone, turning into smoke and dissipating.
“Roar!”
An angry roar was heard as a horseshoe crab monster flew into the air from the military camp. The Horseshoe crab monster was furious as it glared at Xia Pingan with bloodshot eyes. It pointed at Xia Pingan, and in an instant, hundreds of arrows condensed in the air and shot toward Xia Pingan.
At this moment, if Xia Pingan were to give up on transferring his soul power to the flame Guardian’s Soul Stone, he would be able to avoid the attack in an instant.
However, after taking a look at the Soul Stone, Xia Pingan gritted his teeth and grabbed the Soul Stone with one hand, continuing to channel his soul power into the soul Stone. With the other hand, he held the flying sword and danced in front of him. The sword light of the flying sword turned into a screen, and with a series of clanking sounds of secret skills, the hundreds of arrows shot by the Horseshoe crab monster were cut off.
Xia Pingan’s hand was numb from the shock!
It was at this moment that he realized that the arrows shot by the Horseshoe crab monster had completely condensed out of thin air, and they were real. They weren’t simple spells. The arrowheads that had been cut off by his flying light directly fell from the sky.
Seeing that this move didn’t force Xia Pingan away, and that Xia Pingan was still madly pouring soul power into the flame Guardian’s Soul Stone, the Horseshoe crab monster became anxious at once. With a roar in the air, its entire body suddenly turned into a huge, fiery red horseshoe crab that was dozens of meters long. It opened its huge mouth, revealing a mouthful of ferocious sharp teeth, and rushed towards Xia Pingan as if it wanted to open its huge mouth and swallow Xia Pingan.
astral executioner sword! the flying sword in Xia Pingan’s hand turned into a blue light and suddenly became ten times larger. It stood in front of Xia Pingan to protect him and slashed at the head of the Horseshoe crab.
The Horseshoe crab raised its head and whipped its tail toward the sword. It collided with Xia Pingan’s sword with a loud bang.
The fiery red insect was sent flying backward. Its tail was dripping with blood, and many scales fell from the sky. Xia ping ‘an’s move, the execution sword, had been neutralized by the insect. Not only that, but the flying sword that had flown out of Xia ping’ an’s hand was also caught by the two claws of the insect. The flying sword trembled and struggled, but it could not fly back.
Xia Pingan’s expression changed.
At this moment, the other horseshoe crabs flew over quickly.
Your Majesty, quickly retreat! elder MU’s anxious roar could be heard from Saisai’s direction.
The fortress’s protective barrier disappeared once more. This time, hundreds of stone guardians rushed out of the fortress. Elder mu could not care less.
Elder mu stood on the city gate tower of the fortress, watching the battle nervously. When Xia ping ‘an was discovered by the first horseshoe crab monster, the battle had already taken a sharp turn for the worse. Xia ping’ an was at a disadvantage. Every one of those evolved horseshoe crab Monsters was extremely powerful and was not inferior to Xia ping ‘an at all. Moreover, Xia ping’ an was currently holding the flaming diamond’s Soul Stone in one hand. He was transferring soul power to the Soul Stone while fighting the evolved horseshoe crab Monsters.
The number of horseshoe crab Monsters that charged at Xia Pingan increased to four. Xia Pingan was completely surrounded, and he even lost the flying sword in his hand.
The situation was in danger.
Xia ping ‘an glanced at the Soul Stone. The black gas in the Soul Stone had faded a little. He gritted his teeth and frantically injected his soul power, but he did not withdraw it.
A malevolent horseshoe crab monster suddenly appeared in front of Xia Pingan. With a wave of its hand, a long black spear appeared in its hand. The long spear was directly thrust towards Xia Pingan’s heart.
Xia Pingan grabbed the spearhead with one hand and twisted it with the other, breaking the shaft.
Without the spearhead, the Spear’s shaft was still as sharp as before. However, it deviated from its original direction and ruthlessly stabbed into Xia ping ‘an’s right shoulder. The Spear’s shaft pierced through Xia ping’ an’s shoulder and hit the base of the flaming Vajra’s nose with a loud bang.
The blood from Xia ping ‘an’s body splattered all over the flaming Guardian’s head and face, drenching its Soul Stone.
The flame Guardian didn’t move, but Xia ping ‘an once again felt the breath of death.
Death was right in front of him. The tongue of the Grim Reaper had already turned into scorching flames and licked his body. His clothes and hair were all burning.
It was the third horseshoe crab monster.
The Horseshoe crab monster immediately set itself on fire and charged toward Xia ping ‘an, trying to wrap him up and turn him into ashes.
f * ck you! Xia ping ‘an was also determined. A stubborn and fierce aura gushed out from his heart. Looking at the third monster that was charging at him, Xia ping’ an did not retreat even half a step. He continued to pour the soul power in his body into the soul Stone of the blazing diamond while holding the half-broken spearhead in his hand and fiercely stabbing it into the head of the monster that looked like it had just walked out of a steel furnace.
Xia ping ‘an’s entire arm was on fire, but the spearhead still managed to Pierce into the head of the Horseshoe crab monster.
At the same time, the Horseshoe crab monster also rushed over fearlessly and surrounded Xia ping ‘an.
The entire head of the flame Titan was like a torch on the tower in the wilderness, burning and illuminating the night sky.
Seeing this, elder MU’s heart turned cold.
