Despair could be seen on the faces of the Long Cloud Sect elders. The sacrifice of the elder had ended up with nothing and they didn't know what they could do.
"We won't go down this easily!" Elder Liu Cai said with anger and threw out six talismans of his own.
~Boom Boom~
The talismans were explosive ones that could create small explosions along with a lot of smoke. Elder Liu Cai knew that this was obviously not going to do much, the reason he used it was to distract the man for a bit.
"NOW!" Elder Liu Cai shouted.
The other elders split up before attacking with their weapons. The weapons carried clouds with them and had far greater might than normal.
"Cloud Armament Slaughter Formation!"
The weapons joined together and weaved to form a net that restrained the Dao Shell realm expert. The weapons clashed with the hands of the Dao Shell realm expert and were deflected off. The brows of the Long Cloud sect elders furrowed but they didn't stop there. They kept on attacking incessantly and tried to hold the man off.
"Don't stop for even a moment!" Liu Cai shouted.
The Dao Shell Realm expert got angrier by the minute and was pissed off due to the attacks. When he came here he was fully confident that he would be able to handle these few Long Cloud sect elders with ease.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt'Dammit, if the others find out about this I'll lose all face. I already said to them I'll win this with ease and the lord will have plenty of bodies to sacrifice.' The Dao Shell realm expert thought.
He waved his hand as a black halberd appeared in his hand.
"ENOUGH!" The Dao Shell realm expert shouted.
~SHING~
The halberd tore through the air as if it were a fabric and then stuck the weapons of the Long Cloud sect elders.
"ARGH!" The elders cried out in pain.
Blood spilled as deep cuts were made on their bodes. Some were slashed on their hands while some were slashed on their torso. But no matter what, this was a severe injury for them. Not to mention just this one attack had turned the tide of the battle.
For a minute there they were suppressing the Dao Shell realm elder all on their own but now, the battle had flipped.
'Are we really this mismatched?' the elders thought.
~tch~
"You all are really annoying. Seems like I'll just have to kill you. While I would have preferred if you were alive, the lord shouldn't mind as long as I compensate quality for quantity." The Dao Shell realm elder stated with a smirk.
"No…" Liu Cai muttered in an unwilling tone.
He wanted to resist but the pressure exuding from the Dao Shell realm expert was now strong enough to freeze him. Not to mention the force of the previous attack had broken their formation that sent their spirit qi into chaos. Controlling it was now difficult and they needed a moment to do that.
But the Dao Shell realm elder wasn't going to give them this chance after all.
"Now die!" The Dao Shell realm expert declared as he raised his halberd to the sky.
Energy gathered on the blade of the halberd as its size increased by two times. An illusory figure of an ape appeared on top of it exuding a crushing presence. It was evident that this was no normal spirit weapon and was a high grade spirit weapon that had its own skill.
The eyes of the Long Cloud sect elders turned dull as they awaited their end.
~KABOOM!!!!~
~KACHA~
But the end they were expecting never came.
"W-Wha…" The elder's jaw was left open as they gazed upon the scene in front of them.
"How?… who?" Liu Cai questioned in confusion.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmA mass of dust had covered the area in front of them, making it hard for them to see. But what they could tell was that there was now another person there in front of them. The appearance of this person had evidently stopped the attack that was about to kill them. But the question was who could do this.
"Did the high elders arrive?" The female Long Cloud sect elder wondered.
~SHING~
From the dusty cloud, they could see a golden shine. It was very eye catching and made them wondered what it was.
~whoosh~
A Gust of wind blew from the center of the dust cloud as the scene finally cleared up for all. There they saw what would be forever be imprinted in their minds and be forever be carried in their memories. They would probably tell this story for years to come and their descendants would take this day as a legend.
The person standing there was of course none other than Lin Mu. His body glimmered with a golden sheen under a ray of sunlight and made him look like a god's idol. His body had gotten bulkier than before and he had gotten an inch taller as well. The outline of his muscles was visible under his robes and a dominating presence was felt from him.
His eyes were cold as they glanced at everything. But what was even more shocking was what was below him.
"T-the… The Dao Shell realm expert of the Gu Legion, he… he's dead?" One of the Long Cloud sect elders muttered.
The others too saw the utterly crushed body of the Dao Shell realm expert. It looked as if he had been pressed into the ground from the top of his head and was flattened into a pancake. Blood, guts and brains were splattered around his flattened body as if he were a watermelon that were smashed.
But that was not all as all this was within a crater that had been created around the dead body and Lin Mu. Simply Lin Mu's weight was enough to crush the man into a paste not to mention the force with which he had descended.
"W-who are you senior?"
