Chapter 1682 You beast, stop hurting people!
"what?!"
The disciple's pupils shrank, his face filled with disbelief.
With a slight exertion of force, Ji Zhou snapped the tip of the steel longsword in two with a crisp "crack"!
Immediately, he flicked his wrist, and the broken blade transformed into a streak of cold light, shooting back at an even faster speed!
"Pfft!"
The broken blade pierced directly into the disciple's shoulder blade, drawing out a spray of blood.
He screamed in agony as the immense force sent him flying backward, crashing heavily to the ground.
Almost at the same time, the other disciples of the Battle Hall also made their move.
They did not use the special power of the "Return to One Technique of All Transformations". Relying only on their bodies tempered by the new technique, their purer spiritual power, and their tacit cooperation, they were like tigers entering a flock of sheep!
Amu dodged a fireball by sidestepping, then delivered a precise elbow strike to his opponent's ribs, the sound of bones shattering clearly audible.
Da Niu was even more direct. Facing the incoming blade, he neither dodged nor avoided it, but threw a punch. His punch arrived first, sending his opponent and the blade flying several meters away!
The battle was almost one-sided from the very beginning.
Although the disciples of Liuyun Sect may seem numerous, they are utterly helpless against the Zhan Tang disciples, whose teamwork is excellent and whose individual strength far surpasses that of their peers!
In just a few breaths, the seven or eight Flowing Cloud Sect disciples who had been so aggressive just moments before were all lying on the ground, groaning in pain, and incapacitated!
Jizhou walked up to the leading disciple, looking down at him with icy eyes:
"Is this all the skill you've got? You dare to kill and rob? Go back and tell your Flowing Cloud Sect leaders that if you dare to provoke us again, or if I find out you dare to retaliate against the people in the valley today..."
He paused, then lightly stepped on the ground, instantly turning a hard bluestone beside him into dust.
"This is the consequence."
Arrogant, so incredibly arrogant!
But they were all wiped out in a matter of seconds! What else could they say?!
Even though the people from Jizhou seemed to lack a core cultivation technique, they were still able to repeatedly crush them!
The group of people could only swallow their anger, lower their heads, and remain silent!
Ji Zhou ignored the group of stray dogs and turned to wave to the disciples of the Battle Hall: "Clean up, we should go to the next place."
"Yes!"
The disciples responded in unison, their voices filled with high spirits.
After quickly inspecting the battlefield and confirming that the Liuyun Sect disciples were only incapacitated and not in mortal danger, they followed Jizhou and set off again.
On their way out, the young disciples were still excited, exchanging their experiences from the battle.
Amu exclaimed excitedly, "Brother Jizhou, the improvement in our physical strength is too obvious! When that guy's sword came at me just now, I almost wanted to take it head-on!"
A disciple standing nearby chuckled and chimed in, "That's right! I feel like I could beat my old self down with just my fists now!"
Da Niu was quite composed, but he couldn't help but exclaim, "The most important thing is teamwork. As soon as everyone has a thought, they know how to position themselves and how to make their move. It feels so smooth!"
Ji Zhou listened to his disciples' discussion and a smile appeared on his face, but he still reminded them, "Don't be arrogant. Liuyun Sect is just a third-rate sect, and the disciples are of varying quality. Our real test is yet to come. Remember the sect leader's and my instructions: do not easily reveal the special features of the new cultivation method unless absolutely necessary."
"Understood!" everyone responded in unison, suppressing their excitement and transforming it into an even stronger determination.
Using the teleportation via the Sky-Gazing Mirror, they quickly arrived at their second mission location, Luoxia Marsh.
This place is shrouded in mist and covered in swamps. It is inhabited by a water-type monster, the Poisonous Crocodile, which is about to break through to the late stage of Core Formation. It often attacks nearby fishermen and passing travelers, causing widespread panic.
As soon as they arrived, they sensed a faint smell of humus and a barely perceptible fishy odor in the air.
Ji Zhou frowned, just about to start assigning tasks, when he heard terrified screams and the deep roars of monsters!
The crowd looked in the direction of the sound and saw a huge, venomous crocodile covered in thick mud scales on the edge of the swamp not far away. It was opening its blood-red maw and lunging at several panicked villagers who were collecting swamp grass!
“Ah!! Help!!”
Screams erupted one after another from their mouths.
The crocodile's scarlet eyes gleamed with cruel light, and foul-smelling saliva dripped down, corroding the vegetation on the ground.
An old man, lagging behind, staggered and was about to be enveloped by the enormous shadow!
"Evil beast! Don't hurt anyone!"
Jizhou's pupils contracted, and he roared in anger!
The situation was critical, and he had no time to make further arrangements.
"Rescue!"
Before he finished speaking, he shot out like a cannonball, reaching maximum speed and leaving a faint afterimage in his place.
Instead of attacking the monster's sturdy back, he clearly targeted its relatively vulnerable eyes, attempting to relieve the siege by attacking Wei!
At the same time, he shouted urgently, "Amu, harass from the left! Da Niu, support from the right, protect the villagers!"
The disciples of the Battle Hall reacted extremely quickly. Amu immediately waved his hand and unleashed several sharp wind blades, not to injure the enemy, but to accurately shoot them at the side of the Poisonous Crocodile's head to attract its attention.
Da Niu then led the two to quickly move to the side, blocking the terrified villagers and the monster.
Jizhou's fist, though delayed, struck first, slamming into the venomous crocodile's eye socket with a sharp whooshing sound!
The venomous crocodile clearly hadn't expected such a group of incredibly fast humans to suddenly appear.
Sensing the threat to its eyes, it instinctively abandoned the old man who was right in front of it, and with a sudden jerk of its head, it took the punch from Jizhou with its eyelids covered by thick mud armor!
"boom!"
With a muffled thud, mud and armor flew everywhere!
The venomous crocodile, in pain, let out an even more furious roar, its massive tail sweeping across like a steel whip, kicking up a cloud of mud and water!
Jizhou struck and retreated nimbly, dodging the tail attack, while shouting to the villagers:
"Go! Get out of here!"
"Good, good, good! Thank you so much, my benefactor!"
The villagers then seemed to wake from a dream, scrambling away to escape, their faces filled with the terror of surviving a disaster and gratitude towards Jizhou and the others.
"Form a formation! Trapped by it!" Ji Zhou steadied himself and immediately gave the order.
The disciples of the Battle Hall sprang into action instantly. Relying on their tacit understanding honed through numerous rehearsals, they quickly took their positions, their spiritual energy subtly connecting to form a simple encirclement, trapping the enraged Poisonous Crocodile in the center.
Jizhou's eyes were sharp as he stared intently at the increasingly frenzied monster, which was both injured and trapped, his heart filled with murderous intent.
"Today, this beast that has plagued this region must be brought to justice!"
Seeing its prey escape and then surrounded by these tiny humans, the venomous crocodile's ferocity was fully unleashed.
“Ho ho ho—!”
It made a series of sounds in its throat, its huge body suddenly spun around, and its thick tail swept across with tremendous force, spraying out foul-smelling venom like arrows from its mouth, covering the surrounding area!
