Chapter 68 - Attack
This small town had a very unique geographical location.
It was built on a flat plain surrounded by mountains.
A highway passed through the small town.
This highway connected Boston and Tongzhou.
Andrew had seen this place many times in the information he had gathered from the Martial Arts Administration and the military.
This place was considered a restricted area for martial artists.
Firstly, this small town was very close to the Great Dong Mountain, only 30 kilometers away.
Moreover, this place was too far from the city, and the demon beasts living here were very powerful.
Secondly.
Because of the evil path warriors.
“It is said that many warriors who came here to train have died without knowing why. It is suspected that there are evil path warriors secretly stationed in this place.
“It is very likely that this is the real stronghold of the branch of the Heavenly God Sect.”
Andrew came here for the evil warriors.
With a thought, he slowly landed.
He deliberately landed on a more remote street.
“Huh?
“A car is coming?”
Just as Andrew landed, the sound of tires crushing the ground came from afar.
He used the Earth escape technique and slowly hid under the ground.
However, as if he could penetrate the surface of the ground, another eye peeked out to observe the situation on the street.
An off-road vehicle passed by.
Then, the third one…
Four.
A total of eleven cars drove past Andrew’s head.
Andrew could sense… that in each car sat a warrior with strong blood Qi.
They were from the third to the sixth rank.
Andrew’s heart moved.
To be able to gather so many warriors in this small town…
Who else could it be but a sect?
The town was tiny, covering an area of two to three kilometers.
Andrew used the Earth escape technique and chased after those cars.
Very soon, the cars stopped outside a small courtyard with good preservation.
Evil warriors walked down one after another.
All of them entered the small courtyard.
In the courtyard, the sound of conversation could be heard.
“Shadowless, you’ve been following me for a few years…”
“Thank you, Venerable One, for helping me!”
“It isn’t considered as helping you. My greatest joy is finding geniuses and training them well.”
…
Underground.
Andrew was stunned.
What was going on?
Kill him?
Well, that was understandable.
But to attack Boston?
Were these evil warriors so arrogant that they could destroy a city?
And… Venerable Wuji?
“One of the twelve Venerables of the Heavenly God Sect, the person in charge of the Heavenly God Sect in this area, Venerable Wuji?”
Andrew’s eyes moved, and a thought flashed in his mind.
The corner of his mouth leaked a trace of a ghastly smile.
Just as he was looking for this guy, he bumped into him.
What a coincidence.
Right when Andrew was about to make his move, he heard the voice of the Grandmaster called Shadowless. “Oh right, Venerable one… Tongzhou seems to have a saint backing them up. He uses a jade blade, and it can even turn in the air. He used one slash to kill the Silver Moon Wolf that has already advanced to the eighth stage!”
Shadowless briefly reported what had happened in Tongzhou.
“At that time, there happened to be martial artists of our Heavenly God Sect who passed by Tongzhou and discovered this scene. However, they didn’t dare to get too close because they were afraid that the saint would notice something unusual. Therefore, they were unable to see the saint’s appearance clearly.”
Shadowless’s tone then changed. “Venerable one, the martial arts administration and the military’s intelligence department should have already determined that a beast tide is about to occur. They probably have a response now.”
“It doesn’t matter!”
Wuji smiled. “This beast tide is actually planned by the three guardians and the six elders of the sect. It’s not a spur-of-the-moment thing. Once it’s launched, the powerful attack will definitely be able to break through a city.”
“What?”
Shadowless’s expression changed greatly when he heard that.
Even though he was one of the 108 divine generals of the Heavenly God Sect and knew that the Heavenly God Sect’s plot was not small, could they destroy a city?
It wasn’t tens or hundreds of people, but rather, it was millions of people.
Venerable Wuji saw through Shadowless’s thoughts and said with a smile, “Conquering a city doesn’t mean that we have to slaughter the whole city. The demonic beast army will naturally restrain themselves. Otherwise, what’s the point of controlling a city?
“Let the people of the city live. We’ll slowly teach them. We’ll change their minds and develop them into believers of the Heavenly God sect. Eventually, We will use them to threaten the country. They would not dare to use unconventional weapons against us.”
Suddenly, just as Venerable Wuji spoke, his expression changed slightly.
His spiritual energy instantly spread out.
He said in a low voice, “Who is it?
“Eavesdropping from the side? Get out!”
Along with his shout…
Rumble!
His blood Qi exploded.
The entire courtyard was instantly torn apart.
Even the few warriors standing guard outside were sent flying.
Shadowless was shocked.
What happened?
Wasn’t it supposed to be fine?
Why did it suddenly…
He hurriedly released his spiritual energy, but he didn’t feel anything unusual.
At this time, Venerable Wuji also withdrew his spiritual energy.
“Venerable one, what’s wrong?”
Shadowless asked, but Venerable Wuji shook his head and didn’t dare to speak again.
Instead, he transmitted his mental energy, saying, “Just now, I felt a killing intent.”
Then, he said, “I might have sensed wrongly. If someone really broke into this small town, how could they escape my surveillance?”
Venerable Wuji thought for a moment.
He realized that he was a little too nervous.
His spiritual power could radiate close to a thousand meters. In that instant, he had already scanned the surrounding thousand meters. There was no suspicious person.
However, the instant he relaxed…
That killing intent erupted once again.
This time…
The killing intent wasn’t concealed at all.
Not to mention the divine general, even the expressions of several fifth and sixth-grade evil martial artists in the distance changed drastically.
They turned their heads to look over.
Rumble!
What accompanied this burst of killing intent was a burst of blade energy.
The ground split open.
A 50-meter-long lightning blade energy erupted from the ground… Venerable Wuji happened to be standing at the spot where the blade aura exploded.
His expression changed drastically.
In an instant, all of his mental energy gathered under his feet.
His body was filled with the power of blood Qi. Golden light flashed, and even his flesh and blood turned blood-red.
A golden palm print met the enormous lightning blade aura.
Bang!
The palm print exploded.
The blade cut across Venerable Wuji’s body.
Time seemed to stop at this moment.
Puchi!
A line of blood appeared on Venerable Wuji’s body.
A large amount of blood that contained a faint golden light flowed out.
But soon, Venerable Wuji activated his blood Qi to seal the wound.
However, his face became ashen.
With just one attack…
His golden body was broken.
Even if that slash was a sneak attack…
Venerable Wuji had already unleashed his strongest defense, yet his golden body was still broken through.
The eighth stage realm was also called the Golden Body Realm.
One cultivated the ‘golden body’ and took their defense to their peak.
“Venerable!”
Shadowless shouted and slashed at the space…
Boom!
The lightning exploded.
Under the ground, another bolt of lightning blade energy burst out.
“What?”
“Retreat!”
Shadowless’s expression changed greatly.
