All People: I Slay Gods with Martial Arts

7: Chapter 7 The Rise of the MonstersAbove the border battlefield.

The terrifying battle raged on.

With the addition of Sikong Wentian and the Qingcang Daoist Sect, the situation for the Tianfu Army improved significantly.

The battle remained in a stalemate.

The Qingcang Daoist Sect controlled a giant sword, blocking all the Yao Beasts in the sky.

At the very rear of the Yao Beast army, the Old City Lord, Sikong Tianwen, fought three humanoid Yao creatures alone.

The earth-shaking sounds never ceased.

While killing Yao Beasts, Ye Xiu kept an eye on the movement in the rear of the Yao Beast army; the outcome of this war mainly depended on Sikong Wentian.

After all, it was those three humanoid Yao creatures that were controlling the Yao Beasts to assault Tianfu City.

The battle in the sky was extremely intense.

The three Yao creatures were very strong; they used their bodies as weapons, clashing head-on with Sikong Wentian’s long spear.

Both sides were extremely fast.

Even with Ye Xiu’s Transcendence Realm Grade 5 Physical Body, it was difficult to see the full battle clearly. He could only rely on the earth-shaking sounds to discern the situation of the battle.

This battle lasted from night until dawn.

Finally, after Sikong Wentian in the sky pierced and killed one humanoid Yao creature with his spear, the battle finally saw a turning point.

”The Yao King is dead, kill!”

Sikong Wentian roared, and the Yao creature on the tip of his spear instantly exploded, its Physical Body shattering into pieces, filling the sky with blood mist.

Even from tens of miles away, Ye Xiu could still see it clearly.

At this moment, he also let out a fierce roar and unleashed the Overlord Fist Seal.

With a loud boom.

Several Yao Beasts were blasted to death by a single punch.

After a night of hunting and devouring, Ye Xiu’s Realm had stepped into the seventh grade. With the strength of seven dragons combined with the Overlord Fist Seal, his maximum destructive power could reach an astonishing 13 dragons.

Even for a hundred-meter-large avian Yao Beast.

Under the Overlord Fist Seal, it was also directly blasted to death, with no other outcome.

”Woo... Woo-woo...”

Strange cries rang out across the battlefield.

The Yao creatures fighting with Sikong Tianwen, after the Yao King died, disregarded their own safety and issued the order to fight to the death.

”Swear to follow the Yao King to the death, kill!”

The two Yao disregarded life and death, tacitly attacking Sikong Tianwen.

”Hmph, you two of the Yao Race actually have some backbone.”

Sikong Tianwen looked at the two Yao with a hint of respect, then swept his long spear horizontally to engage them.

”Roar...”

Upon hearing the order to fight to the death, the Yao Beast army became even more berserk.

The Yao Beast army, which had already been driven back over a dozen miles, seemed stimulated and pressed forward again.

At this moment.

Human lives were being lost rapidly, as if they were worthless.

The berserk Yao Beast army seemed to have no fear; they were undeterred by death, rushing forward wave after wave.

Advancing toward the border war zone.

In the rear command post, everyone’s heart sank. This was the final decisive battle. The Yao King was dead, and these Yao Beasts, who had not yet developed intelligence, had been given an order to fight to the death.

”The final struggle?”

Ye Xiu looked at the berserk Yao Beasts around him, his movements becoming even more agile.

One Yao Beast after another was blasted to death on the spot.

As time passed.

The battle in the sky came to an end.

Without the existence of the Yao King, the two Yao creatures were quickly killed one by one by Sikong Tianwen.

At this moment.

The Yao Beast army began to fall into chaos.

The turbidity in their eyes vanished, and except for those still in battle, they were all relying on instinct to flee.

”All troops, fall back to the rear. Prepare long-range artillery, fire!”

The command post issued the order, not wishing for the remaining soldiers to sacrifice themselves by chasing the Yao Beasts.

”Retreat...”

On the front line of the border battlefield, countless officers roared.

The soldiers who had been chasing the Yao Beasts with bloodshot eyes stopped and began to fall back.

They let the long-range heavy artillery units in the rear take over to continue suppressing and killing the fleeing Yao Beasts.

”Fall back? Too early.”

Ye Xiu shook his head slightly, choosing not to fall back, but instead continued to hunt the Yao Beasts.

The Heaven-Breaking Martial Body required too many resources, and these Yao Beasts before him were all moving resources; how could he easily give them up?

”Puchi...”

With the sounds of flesh and blood exploding one after another.

Ye Xiu slaughtered frantically through the routed Yao Beast army, quickly harvesting their precious Yao Crystals.

Boom.

This pursuit only lasted for a dozen minutes.

Ye Xiu had already followed the tide of Yao Beasts into the anti-aircraft artillery bombardment zone.

Carelessly, he was hit by an artillery shell and sent tumbling.

”Damn it, you’re hitting friendly forces too!”

He grumbled, ignoring the continuing artillery fire, and quickly got up to continue harvesting the Yao Crystals from the Yao Beasts.

With his current Physical Body, this level of heavy firepower could hardly injure him.

The rumbling artillery fire covered the earth.

The fleeing Yao Beasts were thick-skinned and fleshy; they withstood the pressure of the artillery fire and continued to scatter and flee toward the depths of the mountain ridges.

Ye Xiu kept following, not wanting to let go of such a massive amount of Yao Crystals. To him, the fleeing Yao Beasts were all resources that could be absorbed.

Unless absolutely necessary, he would not give up.

This pursuit lasted from daytime until night.

It was not until the Yao Beast army around him was already dwindling to almost nothing that he finally stopped.

”Not bad, I’ve reached Transcendence Realm Grade 8. Indeed, fortune favors the bold.” Ye Xiu felt his Physical Body and smiled with satisfaction.

At Grade 8 of the Transcendence Realm, although he could not yet walk through the air.

But Ye Xiu, having awakened the Heaven-Breaking Martial Body, possessed astonishing speed; a single step took him a hundred meters away.

”Forget it, I shouldn’t waste them. Getting Yao Crystals inside the city is probably not easy.”

Ye Xiu glanced at the dozens of Yao Beasts that had already fled far away and chased after them again. His Bloodline was special, and his needs were too great. In order to walk through the air as soon as possible, he couldn’t let a single one of these Yao Beasts’ Yao Crystals go.

”Die!”

His speed was very fast.

Every leap and jump took away a Yao Crystal.

The Yao Crystals were somewhat cold, and the moment they touched his palm, they would be swallowed and disappear, turning into Qi within Ye Xiu’s body.

After the last Yao Beast was killed.

Ye Xiu had arrived in a mountain forest.

Giant trees blotted out the sky, blocking the sunlight from above.

After devouring the last Yao Crystal, he leaped fiercely, landing directly atop a tree hundreds of meters tall. Looking at the endless sea of trees, he frowned slightly.

This world had changed too much.

Everything outside Tianfu City had changed. When did this endless forest grow?

”Sigh...”

He sighed in his heart.

The Great Xia and the Daoists definitely knew about the Spiritual Qi recovery.

Otherwise, they wouldn’t have exhausted the nation’s strength over a hundred years to relocate everyone to nine giant cities.

Just as he was gazing into the distance, deep in thought.

A wind blade slashed over silently.

”Shu.”

The invisible wind blade struck Ye Xiu.

Leaving a shallow bloodstain on his body.

”What kind of Yao are you? Your Physical Body is not bad.”

In the sky, a figure slowly materialized. He was the same size as a human, with blue-black skin covered in scales.

Ye Xiu narrowed his eyes, chuckled, and said in a low voice: ”I am...”

”What?”

The Yao creature in the sky didn’t hear clearly; he moved closer and spoke again: ”Hey, speak up.”

”I am your father.”

Seeing that the figure had come within ten meters, Ye Xiu exploded with combat power and smashed the Overlord Fist Seal directly at him.

”Bang.”

The Yao creature couldn’t dodge in time, was hit by the huge fist seal, and flew backward.

Ye Xiu landed on the treetop, used the force to fiercely chase after him again, and smashed out another Overlord Fist Seal.

This time he adjusted the direction of the strike, smashing the blue-black Yao creature directly into the ground.

”Boom...”

The ground shook, and a crater over ten meters wide was instantly smashed into it.
