Global Lords: Me and My Calabash Kiddos

Chapter 441: Chapter 191: Horizontal Refining of Tendons and Bones, Assassination

When they reached Earth Yang Peak, night had already fallen.

An almost full moon hung over the distant mountain summit.

The Howling Moon Silver Wolf saw this and nearly howled on the spot.

With a moon like this, its attack power could increase by 40%.

Yi Tian took out the Cloud Void Stone, concealing everyone beneath the moonlight.

Even the two Eastsea Falcons and two Golden Eagles landed on the hillside, joining Yi Tian in hiding.

In such circumstances, if the Eastsea Falcons appeared in the sky, it would surely alert the Indigenous People.

All was utterly silent.

”Zhi zhi buzz buzz...”

Not far from where Yi Tian and the others lay in stealth, the insects continued to chirp and buzz as always, utterly unrestrained...

Earth Yang Peak, in the Sunset Mountain Range, isn’t considered a particularly tall peak. A slope of over a thousand meters—Yi Tian and his group could dash down in an instant and catch the enemy completely off guard.

”Daddy, that person with ’Dao’ in his name just entered my line of sight.”

After waiting about half an hour, Second Child tugged at Yi Tian’s combat armor.

”How’s he looking now?” Yi Tian asked Second Child.

”Covered in blood, but it seems he isn’t hurt. His two subordinates are wounded and being carried toward us!” Second Child replied to Yi Tian.

”Mm! Keep watching!” Yi Tian nodded, then addressed the others, ”Don’t act rashly. Enemy reinforcements may be arriving soon.”

To rush out and meet Guii Yidao now would risk exposing everyone.

Dashao had guessed they were lying in ambush at Earth Yang Peak, which could help Guii Yidao escape danger.

This meant Guii Yidao would definitely make it to Earth Yang Peak.

”Daddy, there are pursuers behind Guii Yidao. They look pretty far away though; maybe they won’t catch up.”

Three minutes later, Second Child continued to report to Yi Tian.

The situation could be changing.

”Daddy, behind us a burst of light just appeared, and a group of powerful people have arrived.”

Another three minutes passed, and suddenly Second Child spoke up.

Temporary Teleportation Array!

There were teleport coordinates set earlier by the Indigenous People’s rituals there.

Once Guii Yidao and his group arrived in the Sunset Mountain Range, that force used a teleportation array to intercept them.

Guii Yidao still didn’t know he was being blocked.

With his current state, if intercepted without support, he was doomed—no burial ground!

Yi Tian realized their true enemy this time wasn’t the pursuers chasing Guii Yidao, but the ones prepared to intercept him.

Guii Yidao was headed for Earth Yang Peak, and the enemies intercepting him were also headed this way.

That group moved faster!

Five minutes later, Yi Tian saw a squad of men in combat armor leaping down from a nearby mountain ridge.

”Drink Osmanthus Wine, boost your strength to the peak!” Yi Tian ordered.

The warriors, fierce beasts, spirit beasts, and Kiddo all drank Osmanthus Wine or Hundred Flowers Spirit Wine.

”Zhu Ji, Red Race. Great Fei Kingdom Dragon Slayer General. Strength: 1555, Constitution: 1598, Agility: 1566, Spiritual Power: 5580. Skills: SS-level Martial Skill Great Cloud Tiger-Catching Hand: Mastery, SS-level Defense Martial Skill Dragon-Slaying Tiger-Subduing Shield: Mastery, SS-level Body Technique Martial Skill Cloud Dragon Shocking Swan: Mastery, SS-level Blade Skill, S-level Ten Thousand Feet Blade: Mastery. Mysteries of Spirit LV.7, Saber Mastery LV.9.”

Mid-stage S-level Qi Refiner!

Attack power a fearsome 15000+!

Yi Tian noticed that as soon as Zhu Ji arrived through teleportation, he immediately took Spirit Medicine to suppress the Withered Beast Plague.

General Fu Hu put too much faith in Altar Divine Power, and hadn’t brought Heavenly and Earthly Treasures. Zhu Ji would never repeat that mistake.

Zhu Ji was immensely strong; Yi Tian couldn’t take action from distance—he would have to close in, ideally within 1000 meters.

If Zhu Ji realized something, one punch could scatter the Five Elements Divine Light.

Yi Tian’s Ice and Fire Celestial Palm and the Dragon Slayer General’s martial skills were on equal footing.

In a direct clash, Yi Tian would definitely be doomed!

Because Yi Tian’s Ice and Fire Celestial Palm could only strike once, while Zhu Ji’s Great Cloud Tiger-Catching Hand might hit countless times.

And Zhu Ji’s blade skills couldn’t be underestimated!

Moreover, Zhu Ji’s Shield Martial Skill was incredibly sturdy—he could effortlessly block Yi Tian’s Ice and Fire Celestial Palm.

Aside from Zhu Ji, there was another major threat.

”Lingtong, Red Race, Great Fei Kingdom’s Golden Lion General. Strength: 4488, Constitution: 4522, Agility: 4311, Spiritual Power: 1300. Talent: Dominating, S-level. Activating Dominating boosts strength 50%, constitution 50%. Skills: Spear Mastery LV.8, Saber Mastery LV.7, Archery Mastery LV.6, Fighting Mastery LV.7, Horizontal Refining of Tendons and Bones LV.7.”

Every time Horizontal Refining of Tendons and Bones levels up, physical defense power increases by 10%.

This guy was fierce too—Dominating talent plus Horizontal Refining meant over 11500 physical defense power.

Horizontal Refining of Tendons and Bones.

This was postnatal pure body refining, completely different from Yi Tian’s blend of spiritual power and flesh.

At a glance you could tell Horizontal Refining of Tendons and Bones was extremely hard to master.

Body Refiners kept shattering Yi Tian’s understanding—like Mad Lion, who after reaching mid-stage S, had attack power above Zhu Ji.

Now, with his attack power plus an S-level Divine Weapon, he had 14000+ strike power.

But Yi Tian still felt Zhu Ji was the top threat; ranged attacks were far more dangerous than melee.

Lingtong had Arrow Mastery LV.6, but an arrow’s damage relied on the bow’s strength!

Unless Lingtong had SS-level bow and arrows.

Yi Tian spotted an S-level Treasure Bow at Lingtong’s waist, enabling 4000 attack power. That was something Yi Tian’s side could handle.

The Great Fei Kingdom’s team didn’t consist of just Zhu Ji and Lingtong.

There was also one early-stage S-level Qi Refiner and one early-stage S-level Body Refiner.

Four hundred A-level Warriors, all elite Imperial Guard.

Sending so much force after Guii Yidao was like firing a cannon at a mosquito.

The death of the Great Fei Kingdom’s National Guardian General was a severe blow; the nation loathed Yi Tian, the mastermind, and swore to cut down his followers.

And besides, this area was too close to the Demon Lord’s territory; the Great Fei Kingdom feared Demon Lord’s support and thus sent in a powerhouse like the Dragon Slayer General.

”Great General, according to the Cyan Light Race’s scouts in the rear, Guii Yidao will be passing somewhere near here.”
