“His meridians got severed, he has been crippled!”
Afterwards, medical personnel came forward to treat Zhang Xuan. But after a thorough examination, they discovered that Zhang Xuan’s entire body had been invaded by Saber Qi, his meridians had been severed and he had become a cripple.
Injuries were unavoidable when Martial Artists fought each other. Moreover, Zhang Xuan had repeatedly provoked Chu Mo and even wanted to kill him during the fight. This had already touched the bottom line.
A Martial Artist’s dignity must not be insulted!
Furthermore, Chu Mo didn’t kill him. He only crippling his cultivation. This could already be considered merciful.
After learning of this outcome, the crowd didn’t have any pity for Zhang Xuan, only showing regret.
As for Chu Mo, they showed admiration and…
Respect!
It was respect for the strong!
In the previous fight, Chu Mo had only made two lightning-fast moves. However, just this fleeting glimpse left a deep impression on them.
The first time, he used his own flesh and blood to forcibly grab a sharp blade, directly crushing the Alloy Longsword.
The second time, he unsheathed his saber by a centimeter, and terrifying Saber Qi had erupted, heavily injuring Zhang Xuan.
The power contained in these two moves was no less than an Early-Stage Martial Master.
How could this not shock them and give rise to respect?
[No wonder he could become a Guest Official when he is just a Mid-Stage Martial Artist. He’s indeed far from ordinary!]
Everyone thought silently in their hearts.
At this time, Mo Shanshan also came forward to express her apologies to Chu Mo for Zhang Xuan’s provocations.
Chu Mo naturally wouldn’t dwell on this matter anymore.
As for Zhang Xuan, he had already been carried away by medical personnel to recover from his injuries.
He wouldn’t die.
But barring anything unexpected, he could only be an ordinary person for the rest of his life.
…
This was just a small episode.
Half an hour later, everyone was ready to set off. Under Mo Shanshan’s send-off, they headed outside the base.
The team had a total of fifteen people. Among them were four Martial Masters: one Late-Stage Martial Master, and three Early-Stage Martial Masters.
Of the remaining people, besides Chu Mo, they were all Late-Stage or Peak-Stage Martial Artists.
Chu Mo followed along in the middle of the team.
However, no one dared to underestimate him. Instead, they treated him like a powerful Martial Master.
The team’s traveling speed wasn’t slow. They quickly got far away from Luyang Base.
Chu Mo followed the team while looking around.
It was currently noon.
Sunlight shone down, illuminating the earth. Countless tall trees and intertwining vines covered the land, making one feel as if they were in a primeval forest. Civilizations and massive cities humans prided themselves in had all been buried.
Except for structures in the bases, no traces of human structures could be found in the wilderness.
This was the power of nature. Even Chu Mo felt a sense of awe seeing this.
Soon, night fell. Before dusk, the team set up camp to rest for the night.
It was worth mentioning that Qian Yuan’s experience in the wilderness was very rich. Under his lead, the team didn’t encounter any danger the entire day. Even if there was a gathering of Ferocious Beasts ahead, they could circle far around before the beasts noticed them.
If they really couldn’t go around, with the strength of this team, they could slay any beasts blocking their path.
Although the traveling speed was a bit slower, only covering a little over a thousand kilometers in a day, it was safe.
Early the next morning before dawn, they quickly set off again.
Near nightfall, they would set up camp again.
It would continue like this for several days.
Soon, it was already the fourth day.
At this point, they were less than a day’s journey from Changfeng Base and would arrive tomorrow.
Perhaps it was because they saw that they were close to their destination, or perhaps the long period of peace, everyone more or less let their guards down.
Suddenly, ‘Splat!’
A Martial Artist had fallen slightly behind. A sudden gust of wind whistled by. This Martial Artist only had time to let out a muffled groan before his body shuddered. The next moment, he exploded with a boom, dispersing into a mist of blood.
This commotion attracted everyone’s attention.
“What happened?”
“How did Hou Nan suddenly die!?”
“He was a peak Martial Artist, how could he die just like that!?”
“What exactly is going on?”
“I seemed to see a white shadow swiftly passing by just now. But before I could react, I saw the shadow collide with Hou Nan’s body, and then…”
A Martial Artist was trembling all over, not knowing if it was from fear or regret at not being able to save the person in time.
Chu Mo also gripped his saber’s hilt with a solemn expression. He vigilantly looked around.
“Stay calm! Remain alert!” At this time, Qian Yuan loudly called out, making everyone calm down.
He stood there with a stern expression. He first looked at the place Hou Nan had been standing, then carefully sniffed. Suddenly, his expression changed, “Not good! It’s a Void Splitting White Weasel!”
“Ahhhhh!” Just as his voice fell, another miserable cry sounded from the other side.
A Martial Artist was caught off guard. His body suddenly shuddered and then exploded.
This time everyone was on alert. Yet, all they caught was a glimpse of a white Ferocious Beast.
This creature had a slender body, short limbs, a narrow head. It was not very large, only about a meter long. However, its tail was very long. Its two front paws were like human hands with five fingers, and its nails were incomparably sharp with a silvery glint like metal.
When discovered, half of this beast’s body was in midair while the other half had vanished, as if it had entered the void.
That was indeed the case!
The Void Splitting White Weasel was a Mid-Tier Level 3 Ferocious Beast! In terms of strength, it wasn’t considered very powerful!
However, this beast was extremely fast and could shuttle through space, grasping a hint of the Power of Space.
It would appear and vanish unpredictably. Furthermore, once it marked a person as its target, there was basically no chance of escaping alive!
Even a Martial Grandmaster encountering it would find it very troublesome to deal with. And now, their team was being targeted by a Void Splitting White Weasel.
In an instant, everyone’s faces turned ghastly pale.
“What are you panicking for!” Qian Yuan loudly reprimanded, then added, “It’s just a mere Mid-Tier Level 3 Ferocious Beast. As long as it doesn’t find any openings, if we slowly take the time to attack at the precise moment it attacks, we still have a chance!”
“Everyone, heed to my orders! Gather together! As soon as you see that White Weasel appear, immediately swarm it. Don’t hold back!”
Hearing Qian Yuan’s command, everyone quickly gathered together.
All of them had their backs to each other, nervously staring at the space in front of them.
‘Swish’ Before long, another rending space sound suddenly rang out.
The Void Splitting White Weasel split the void again, arriving in front of a Martial Master in the team. Its two paws reached out, wanting to slay him.
“Die!” This Martial Master swung his saber.
However, he was far too slow.
The Martial Master didn’t hit the White Weasel at all. The Weasel instead directly grabbed this Martial Master’s chest, and with a casual scoop, dug out a bloody heart.
At this time, the other Martial Artists finally reacted and all hacked with their sabers.
Unfortunately, once the Weasel was successful in that one strike, it immediately dodged. It used its speed to avoid all attacks and then quickly entered the void to disappear.
