Chapter 362: Breaking Army (Part 2)
"Enemy attack!"
A heart-wrenching shout suddenly rang out on the Jingmin battlecruiser.
Immediately, it was drowned out by tragic screams.
Where Zhang Yuan’s profound soldiers pointed, four or five able warriors of Jingmin couldn’t dodge in time, and their bodies were instantly severed by the crimson sword aura, falling neatly onto the deck.
Their colorful innards, mixed with fresh blood, gushed out.
These warriors, with Tier Two or Three strength, had remarkably tenacious life force, not dying immediately even after being cut in half.
Their screams made the medium-sized warship boil over instantly.
"Why?"
A warrior from Jingmin who witnessed the tragedy couldn’t believe his eyes and let out an enraged roar.
The people of Jingmin and the Wuqi tribe share the same ancestral bloodline, so why would Zhang Yuan, a barbarian, raise a blade against them?
But there were only a few among the Jingmin who were as confused as him; more warriors on deck roared, drew their weapons, and charged at Zhang Yuan, their eyes blazing with the desire to avenge their kin.
Zhang Yuan cut down several warriors with one slash and continued to advance without stopping.
The Taowu Saber in his hand swung with a heavy blaze, sweeping away all the stubborn enemies in his path with an invincible force.
The brave yet reckless warriors of Jingmin rushed into the sword aura, instantly unleashing a bloodstorm, with heads flying and limbs dancing, turning the top deck of the battlecruiser into an Asura Hell in the blink of an eye.
Hot blood flowed on the deck, forming streams as it seeped into the crevices between the planks.
At the same time, the rising blood essence was silently absorbed into the blade by the swirling sword aura.
The surface of this profound soldier showed faint traces of blood patterns, with its inner spirituality fiercely restless.
Yet Zhang Yuan, wielding the Taowu Saber, felt no stirring in his heart.
In the past period, the enemies he had slain far exceeded those from before, with the number of barbarians killed under this profound weapon nearing four digits, making him long accustomed to slaughter and death.
Countless blood and lives had also forged Zhang Yuan’s steel-like fighting will!
On the deck of this battlecruiser, he was like a relentless killing machine, reaping the lives of his enemies at his own pace, with no opponent able to stop him.
Resolute, ruthless, powerful...
Although many warriors of Jingmin charged onto the deck one after another, trying to surround and kill Zhang Yuan with sheer numbers.
They were like praying mantises standing in front of a wheel, courageously raising their weapons, only to be easily crushed on the spot.
"Form the array!"
A master of Jingmin shouted furiously, attempting to organize a battle array against Zhang Yuan.
For low-tier martial artists to fight against high-tier powerhouses, besides using overwhelming numbers, another way is to form a battle array, condensing fighting spirit to suppress the latter.
Yet, although the Jingmin leader’s idea was good, on the limited space of the ship’s deck, how could Zhang Yuan allow the opponent to leisurely form an array?
Zhang Yuan charged forward like a lion into a flock of sheep, pushing steadily through.
Soon, he had actually killed his way from the bow to the stern!
A blood path filled with corpses lay behind him, chilling the hearts of the surviving Jingmin.
"Stop!"
As Zhang Yuan turned around, ready for another round of killing.
An old man in a gray robe, escorted by several warriors of Jingmin, hurried onto the deck.
Seeing the deck full of corpses, his eyes brimmed with rage as he harshly questioned, "Who are you?"
This elder of Jingmin couldn’t believe that the enemy slaughtering his kin was a warrior from the Wuqi tribe, thus suspecting there might be some misunderstanding.
But the next moment, he saw the Taowu Saber in Zhang Yuan’s hand, radiating a demonic blood glow.
The elder’s pupils suddenly contracted, answering his own question: "Blood Saber Butcher!"
Zhang Yuan’s profound weapon, due to having killed too many barbarians, was already famous throughout the Great Dream Marsh.
It was a fervent rumor among Jingmin.
In fact, if it weren’t for Zhang Yuan tirelessly hunting Wuqi tribe barbarians, the attack on Golden Sand Island by the Three Families Alliance Army would have been launched much earlier, rather than being delayed till now.
Zhang Yuan sneered coldly, rushing toward the elder in gray.
It truly was the Blood Saber Butcher!
Even though Zhang Yuan’s appearance was completely different from the rumors, the Jingmin elder was a hundred percent sure he was the bloodthirsty fiend feared by the Wuqi barbarians.
The elder glared angrily, "Abandon ship!"
He knew very well that without a strong opponent of the same tier, there was absolutely no chance for the remaining warriors on the battlecruiser to kill Zhang Yuan, the Blood Saber Butcher.
Ordering everyone to abandon ship and flee was the only choice!
Before he could finish speaking, the old man’s body rapidly swelled like a balloon, his wide robe billowing, and an invisible aura emanated from him.
His face flushed, eyes almost bulging out of their sockets, and blood trickled from his mouth, nose, and ears simultaneously.
"Kill!"
The Jingmin elder suddenly swung the cane in his hand, smashing it towards the onrushing Zhang Yuan.
In an instant, the thick, arm-like black-brown cane emitted a faint golden glow, roaring through the air like thunder!
Huh?
Zhang Yuan was slightly surprised.
In his perception, the aura of the Jingmin elder before him suddenly surged, with a might comparable to a Tier Five expert.
And the cane he wielded also posed a slight threat to Zhang Yuan!
Flashing a quick glance, Zhang Yuan activated the power of the Black Giant Ant.
He never underestimated any opponent; he hadn’t used the Divine Nest Host’s extraordinary abilities earlier precisely to handle the strong opponents among the enemy.
With the boost of fifteen times the strength, Zhang Yuan decisively swung his saber.
The next moment, the Taowu Saber collided with the black-brown cane.
The external sword aura crumbled instantly, and the blade and cane clashed directly and fiercely.
In an instant, the black-brown cane snapped into two.
The Jingmin elder spewed blood as he staggered back!
Right at that moment, a ghostly figure appeared behind Zhang Yuan, a bright dagger aimed straight at his spine!
This assassin had been excellently concealed earlier, showing no signs before striking, and the timing of the attack couldn’t be better, seizing the critical moment of Zhang Yuan’s confrontation with the elder.
Most critically, the strike was as swift and fierce as lightning, with the dagger tip emitting an extremely sharp aura!
However, Zhang Yuan seemed to have eyes in the back of his head and halted abruptly in a split-second crisis.
Suddenly, he turned and swung his saber.
The Taowu Saber slashed upward with a surge, the condensed evil qi exploding with the sword aura, completely overshadowing the dagger’s aura!
"Ah!"
Amidst a miserable scream, a severed hand clutching the dagger fell bloodily onto the deck.
A longer weapon holds the advantage.
Long blade against dagger, Zhang Yuan won!
In truth, the clash between both sides was perilously close, and any carelessness could have easily resulted in him being hit.
The outcome was utterly unpredictable.
