Chapter 919: Clash (1/2)
Sam's whistle echoed through the whole area and even the Solar fragments heard it.
At that exact moment, Sam's beasts came out of their hiding and he also ran out towards them, but before they reached, his shadows who are hiding at the outskirts of the valley appeared in different positions at the edge and they stabbed a medium sized metallic pole that was hidden between the rubble.
The Solar fragments are distracted by the undead who looked like one of their own, that is the reason they didn't check the surroundings. Anyway the whole plan started with a giant underestimation of Sam from the Solar fragments.
They are so sure that Sam wouldn't be able to find the valley and the Space tunnel. They thought that he would panic from the start from the sudden attacks the news from the major powers, everything else. Even underestimation was a major understatement.
At least for the scout batch, which came before the current batch, they didn't even bother giving the escape means, they are sure that Sam would be unaware of their entry point which led to the previous massacre.
Anyway, these pillars are similar to the ones that he used in destroying the city walls of the Kala tribe. As soon as the shadow stabbed them in the ground, the spiritual energy in the surroundings started vibrating and after the initial vibration, the spatial energy vibrated.
This is not to injure or attack the Solar fragments. It is to restrict them. They wouldn't work on the transference scroll.
This is Sam operating on the assumption that at least this batch would have some escape means as they might have considered their entry point being revealed.
And his guess is right, one of them used the transference scroll to escape, but as soon as he did that, the spatial energy vibrations that are coming from all sides collided with the energy emitting from the transference scrolls and he suffered the backlash of the collision.
His body fell on the floor with a lot of muscle tears and wounds as he bled out slowly.
Sam suddenly felt it was a pity that he revealed this function so early, if only he waited for them to use them together the impact would have been great.
But it was only a fleeting thought.
Sam and the beasts dove into the Central Valley with Raiju elder supervising the whole thing. If anything goes wrong, he will take over and sweep through the whole thing.
His first target is the not the leader in his weak moment, rather the Middle stage candidates. He took out both reaper and executioner swords as he clashed with them with partial light elemental fusion.
While the beasts took care of the Initial stage Initiation cultivators. They are all in middle stage just like him, so this is a bit of overkill.
The leader saw Sam's approach and ordered the Middle stage cultivators.
”Nine of you work as a team. From the looks of it he broke through to the middle-stage. If he is done the beasts will automatically back down. Be careful and always stay in the formation.”
He spoke in a painful voice and sat down straight before closing his eyes and meditating. He started burning his blood. He knew that something entered his blood and it is failing his organs, he has his own thoughts on how to cure this situation and this is the most dangerous of them all.
He is burning his blood and for the heat his own blood would react differently as his bloodline is of fire. But the foreign blood and poison wouldn't react the same way. He can identify the foreign bodies and get rid of that blood forcefully.
He would be weakened after this, but at least he would stay alive.
While he is going through that painful procedure. Sam already started clashing with the nine Middle stage Initiation cultivators.
When Sam reached them, they surrounded him from all the sides and no matter which direction Sam moved, they made sure that they moved along with him to keep him in the center as they attacked with ranged attacks from their positions.
No matter how he moved, they are trying to keep their relative positions same and he was being attacked from all nine sides.
But that didn't last long, the golden flames are doing little damage to him and he is faster than them. He activated partial light element suddenly and zoomed towards the person in front of him.
His target moved backwards and the rest of the maintained their relative positions by moving at the same speed, but they are not fast enough.
Sam's sword reached the target and left a slash on his chest and when he was about to continue with a slash to the throat, he felt a large flaming inferno hit him in from all the sides.
The remaining eight locked on to him as they attacked simultaneously which threw him off the track.
