Chapter 197 Looting
“Sure.”
The aged man named Senior Feng muttered that word from underneath his mask. He waved his hand and a swirl emerged in the s.p.a.ce in front of him. From within leaped out a shadow.
Whoos.h.!.+
The dark shadow moved quickly, like a dash of lightning. In an instant, the dark shadow had pierced through an eighth-rank beast. Blood was spilled out. The dark shadow didn’t stop there. It rushed toward the burly man who was running away.
The burly man heard the noise. He turned around, only to be startled.
In a hurry, he unsheathed his saber and he mobilized his astral powers which formed a s.h.i.+eld as he wielded his saber to fend off the dark shadow.
This stunning saber was a treasure in itself. The air was stirred up by the saber and the ripples in the air extended to more than 10 meters!
The dark shadow moved to the side with agility and dodged this cut. The dark shadow pressed forward toward the burly man with increasing momentum.
The burly man’s first strike fell short but he didn’t have time to fix this. This fact frustrated him but he didn’t sit still to wait for death. He raised his other hand and punched at the dark shadow the moment it was near.
The burly man was t.i.tled the “Fist.”
Fistfighting was his advantage. He had studied an ancient fistfight skill. At this moment, a strong force was gathering on his fist; even the air around it moved at a curve. m.u.f.fled noises were being generated out of thin air.
This move was even more horrifying than when he used his saber!
Bang!
Since the dark shadow was close, it could no longer dodge this strike; it landed squarely on the dark shadow. However, the punch went through the dark shadow in the next second. At the same time, with a loud sound, a fist print with a diameter of seven to eight meters appeared on a huge tree behind this shadow!
The print left on the tree trunk was deep. The tree shook, even though it was large as a towering hill. Some leaves fell to the ground.
That isn’t real?!
The burly man was terrified. He believed he had an acute perception. How did his judgement fail with the dark shadow?
He used his astral powers to lock on his target. He was completely unable to tell if that was an illusion or not!
Soon, he remembered an extremely rare skill, energy clone! That was a rare and mysterious skill of the advanced level. With that skill, the pet could fool most surveillance and identification skills. The clone was even more realistic than an illusion. Relying on spiritual force alone would be hard to tell the true from the fake.
He felt some fatal danger coming at him from behind. The burly man turned around. Darkness came over his eyes. He couldn’t see what that was. Out of instinct, he raised his saber to fend off the strike. But in the next second, he was knocked away and smashed into the fist print left on the tree. A human print was added to the fist print.
The burly man crawled up. He looked up and finally recognized the dark shadow that attacked him.
“A Devil Shadow, at the upper position of the ninth rank??”
The burly man was frightened. Devil Shadows were pets of the demon family, quite the aggressive sort. It was like an a.s.sa.s.sin, with strong disguising and hiding abilities. The Devil Shadow was stunningly fast. Most of the beasts would be killed and eaten up by the Devil Shadow before they could catch a sight of it.
After the burly man recognized that pet, he looked around from the corner of his eye. His team had collapsed. His two pets had been blocked; they had been completely overwhelmed by Zhuo Fengqun’s three pets.
At the moment, the others around Tang Ruyan had summoned their pets as well to attack the burly man’s teammates.
A violent turbulence caused by astral powers caught the burly man’s attention. He noticed someone standing next to Tang Ruyan. The burly man felt extreme fear when he saw that man’s appearance and focused on the coldness in his eyes. He suddenly recalled a man with a horrifying influence.
