Chapter 123: Symbol 1 (1/2)

All the cultivators gathered by the Cougar clan are looking at the scene. They looked at the Sam's bloody palm which is holding the heart as it went through the young master's body.

Then they looked at Sam's face. His face was cold, without a single emotion, they didn't even see anger. He didn't even have nervousness of facing three hundred of them, he didn't show any crazed excitement of facing this challenge.

In both cases, they can accept it. Because, they saw both kinds of people. But now, they are seeing the third kind. The unfazed.

Sam definitely didn't have the highest cultivation; he didn't have many people beside him. He is standing alone, in front of all these people he is looking as if he wasn't even considering them as a threat.

Suddenly, they felt nervous. There is a voice in the corner of their minds, to get away from this place as soon as possible.

But when they looked at their teammates, they changed their minds immediately. They have strength in numbers and more than ten people have cultivations equal to or higher than Sam.

While they are saying to themselves that they can win, that seed of fear and that voice are still alarming them.

That is the subconscious of the humans. No matter, how much you deceive yourself, your subconscious knows whether you should be afraid of something.

Just like how, a person who never seen a tiger will be afraid as soon as he saw one. The instinct can never be deceived. One will be afraid when they see a real threat and a threat is standing in front of them.

Sam slowly retracted his hand and dropped the heart on the ground. The dead body of the young master also dropped down.

All the members are hesitating to make a move first. But before they could react, they could see something changing around them.

The air around them seemed to raise in temperature. They started to sweat profusely. When they looked at Sam, they understood what is causing this.

Sam's body is glowing in golden light, the air around him, started to whistle and the temperature is raising continuously.

Soon, all the grass around Sam started wilting due to heat. Vapours started to emit from the plants.

Sam is using the fire and wind elements together. When facing a large number of opponents, one has to place themselves in the most convenient and comfortable environment possible and these high speed and high temperature winds might not make all of them disabled but they will find it hard to concentrate.

Before they could adjust to the new temperature. Sam made the first move which no one anticipated.

He took out his golden staff and swung it hard at the person who is standing in fore front.

Even though, the other party reacted late, he still managed to block the attack. But he didn't feel glad at all.

Because, the tail wind following the staff's movement was so sharp that it pierced through his chest and left a deep gash.

At this movement another person was attacking Sam from behind. But he didn't turn around, instead he still swung his staff at his current opponent and this time, he poked the staff straight into the gash and nailed the staff deep into the person.

Now, he swung the staff carrying the person and slammed him into the attacker coming from behind.

He didn't stop. He took out the staff and immediately threw it like a javelin towards a person in back. It actually, penetrated into that person' mouth as he was chanting and busy making hand signs.

Everyone was shocked. But they are the only ones who are in daze.

Sam caught the nearest attacker and immediately broke his hand. The bone pierced and came out of the skin.

His claws came into work as he tore open the flesh along the bone and pulled it out.

”Ahhhhhhhhhh…”

The opponent screamed. But before he could even finish his painful scream, he jabbed the bone directly into the throat making him die.

He pulled back the bone and then pierced it into another person neck from the side.

Before he could turn back, Sam was hit with a earthen rock and followed by a fire ball.

Sam took a step back and looked at small gashes formed on his torso.

He looked at the mages who are short on numbers but are still hiding at the back of the group.

Immediately, Sam took out the normal staff he used to have before forging the golden staff.

He didn't attack, but started spinning the staff on top of his head as he released the wind energy along with the fire energy, but the fire energy is only used to raise the temperature.

The wind started circling around him as it created a massive tornado. The group saw his weird actions without doing anything and within two seconds they knew it was a mistake to do so.

The whole battle field soon became a place covered with tornado. When they finally tried to make a move, they were being repelled by the wind currents.

Even the spells they are throwing at them, are being repelled.

But before they could try any big moves.

”Tornado style, Harvest.” Sam slowly muttered. Then before the disbelieving eyes of all those who are present, the wind current nature completely changed and became sharp.

As if targeting the specific people, all the mages in the back became head less. More than forty lives just went away like that. All their heads fell down as blood spurted out.

Sam didn't stop and with the increasing momentum, he turned towards the nearest opponent and slammed the staff on his head.

The head split into two as if it was curt by a sword, but that is not the end of it. All the wind momentum was shot out in a horizontal line, completely ravaging the ground. All the grass blew away and all the people standing that line were slammed to the ground as the sharp winds, riddled their bodies making the blood spurting from the wounds.

When all of it was settled down, Sam is standing with a broken staff in his hands, while panting.

This massive attack, even though made a lot of damage, also took some amount of energy away from him.

But the opponents thought he might have been exhausted, so they tightened their grips on their weapons. After all, there are not many mages left. Only one or two scattered in between.

Contrary to their thoughts, Sam wasn't that exhausted, he can use the surrounding spiritual energy to his liking, so he didn't use up all of his energy.

He threw away the piece of staff into a person's eye and leapt into the group.
