313 Frantically Tortured to Death (1/2)
Yet, what scared him the most was that his own Xuan Qi was fading away. Moreover, his dantian was reeling in chaos; not to mention the fact that he had no time to retaliate. In fact, he couldn't have competed with his opponent on the basis of his own skills even if he had the time to retaliate…
His opponent's speed was extremely fast. Moreover, the red-clad man had been thrown into disarray. Xuan Qi was the only thing he could rely on. However, the only thing he could rely on had already started to disappear. He had even forgotten to defend himself, and was simply being knocked-about.
”Bang!” the red clad man was hit on his crotch. Then, he was hit on the back of his head with a ”Bang!” before he had the time to scream. He staggered two steps forward — only to find his attacker already present in front of him. Then, the red-clad man was forced to suffer a gale of countless crushing attacks within a split second.
His opponent's speed was like that of a ghost's. The red-clad man felt his entire body — from top to bottom… each and every part of it — getting hit. Moreover, every spot that was struck could cause the death of a person.
This mysterious attackers understanding of the human body had reached a very skilled and 'easy-flowing' level. It seemed that he was attacking randomly in either convenience or confusion. However, each spot he attacked made his victim feel extreme pain and discomfort; all these regions of the body were considered a taboo in martial arts.
The red-clothed man's consciousness was fuzzy. There was only one thought in his mind. [This person is even more proficient at killing than the men from my Blood Sword Hall. Who is this man?]
The other two Sky Xuan experts were scared at witnessing this sudden change in the situation. They bellowed and moved forward to help their leader. They raised their Xuan Qi — only to discover the lamentable reality a bit too late. They didn't realize when it happened… but their own Xuan Qi had already disintegrated. In fact, more-than-half of it had dispersed. The two felt as if their bodies had been affected by a high-level poison from the inside. They were flustered at being unable to save their compatriot's life. The two experts tried their best to get their Xuan Qi to circulate. They had hoped to force the poison out of their bodies and reinstate their fighting strength by doing this. However, the more urgently they circulated their Xuan Qi… the faster its remnants dispersed. How could they not be frightened?
It was a very scary scene since their men were slowly disappearing from the surroundings as more and more ghosts had started to appear on the mountain… They were like a disease which swiftly spread with thunderous speed.
Each of these newcomers' bodies flickered with glittering golden light. They didn't show any trace of fear as they charged towards the Earth Xuan and Jade Xuan experts; in fact, they even charged towards the strong Sky Xuan experts without any hesitations. The swords in their hand chopped down. It seemed like they were treating the Blood Sword Hall's assassins as a mere flock of sheep that had come for a slaughter.
The strongest amongst this new batch of enemies were Gold Xuan experts. Therefore, the red-clothed assassins would've considered these newcomers to be 'cattle waiting for slaughter' if they hadn't been poisoned earlier… perhaps even inferior to that. These newcomers were like ants to them — at best. It was important to know that the weakest members of this team of red-clad men were Jade Xuan experts.
However, the roles had been reversed. These black-clothed men — whom they would've generally regarded as ants — had somehow started to seem like the tyrant kings of hell!
The overbearing Ecstasy Fragrance had resulted in the crazy drop of their effective-cultivation in front of their enemy. And, their effective-cultivation continued to fall. This fact left the red-clothed men extremely frightened. In fact, they had already lost their will to fight-back.
These cold-blooded assassins' will to fight had been defeated by Ecstasy Fragrance.
A person's mentality wouldn't even hold at par with an ordinary individual's if they suddenly lost the immense strength they had always proudly relied on for their survival.
Therefore, everybody was only thinking of a means to escape. In fact, they were as chaotic as a swarm of bees.
Their Gold Xuan enemies were extremely imposing on the contrary. They were very ferocious, and seemed unafraid to die.
This new group of men had clashed against the other with the intensity of a volcanic eruption within a span of a couple of breaths.
The newcomers' facial expressions were grim and emotionless. They were confronted with a group of cold-blooded assassins. However, their own facial expressions were far more cruel and cold than a cold-blooded assassin's. Their panic-stricken enemies were attacking them in a very chaotic manner, but these newcomers made no attempts to flee. In fact, they didn't even try to dodge the incoming attacks. They merely used their shoulders and chests to confront the attacks head-on as they sent their own swords of their enemy's body.
It seemed as if they were fighting for the fate of their lives. In fact, it seemed as if they could change their lives by sustaining these injuries.
Their strategy was extremely cruel.
[If you confront a cruel enemy — then you've to be even crueler!]
The battle had begun quickly, but it had ended even quicker. The battle was already half-finished when the two forces collided. This was because… the black-clad men had attacked in order to slash at the bodies of the other group. And, the bodies of their victims would turn black once their skin had been pierced. Then, the said-individual would cease to breathe and die in a moment's time.
The weapons of the newcomers had been smeared with a highly toxic poison. This bloody poison could easily take someone's life in an instant. Even the Earth Xuan experts were unable to resist this poison for more-than-half a breath's time.
Jun Mo Xie had stored the poison he had expelled from Jun Wu Yi's body. And, that was same poison he had decided to use in this battle. The swords of these men had been dipped in that poison for an entire night's time. And, this poison was a mix of the top-ten most poisonous substances in the world. In fact, this poison could be bestowed the title of the 'King of all Poisons'.
Those 200-plus men were divided into different groups. Each group of 4 or 5 had been tasked with taking-on one individual. One member would act as a 'meat shield' and bear all strikes from the enemy. The remaining 3 or 4 members of the group would swarm around, and cut the enemy down into pieces.
