Damn it! Let's smash the darkness together!-Chapter 1320 - 166: Kindness Toward Others
This monster was all alone, but it didn’t seem pitiful.
On the contrary, it exuded a rather violent and powerful aura as soon as it appeared, with its form gradually becoming visible.
Unlike the other monsters that, after spewing out, landed on the ground like sea fish in large quantities, this lone ranger twisted its body in mid-air and forcefully stopped at the top of the fountain in an almost floating posture.
Though it hadn’t fully landed, its gaze swept across, locking onto Xu Shu and the others below, with a sneer at the corner of its mouth, displaying a bloodthirsty and evil expression quite human-like.
Of course, everyone could now clearly see its specific appearance.
This was a half-human, half-beast humanoid monster, with human-shaped legs, and an animal’s upper body above the waist, a pair of pitch-black ram horns on its head, its overall body crimson black with a slight sheen, because its stout torso was covered with steel-like scales, flashing sharp cold glimmers!
Just one glance made it clear that this creature was terrifyingly powerful!
"Not good!"
"This is not second-tier... it’s third-tier! It’s a third-tier Corpse King!"
Huang Jun identified the creature’s tier through "bloodthirsty," and her pupils shrank instantly, while the other three women also cried out in shock, wishing they could escape a thousand miles away immediately.
In this plain’s cave, third-tier Corpse Kings or Yin Kings do occasionally appear.
But it was a very low probability occurrence.
No one expected their luck to be so bad that in the first cave they squatted, such a formidable enemy would appear!
Even though the team had a powerful mid-sequence Transcendent as their backbone, it was well known that Transcendents find it very difficult to fight monsters of the same tier one-on-one, especially when this Transcendent was of the "Warrior" class.
Even if, after advancing to the mid-sequence, one’s abilities grow stronger, as a recognized sandbag-type combatant, crushing a second-tier might be manageable, but once facing the same level existence, the true nature inevitably came to light.
Sure enough, with just a hurried glance, Huang Jun keenly noticed a momentary "bewilderment" and "shock" on Xu Shu’s face.
This perfectly validated her prediction and suspicion that this "Dragon Elephant," as he had stated upon arrival, couldn’t fight monsters of the same tier alone, which was why he had teamed up with them!
"Retreat, quickly retreat!"
"Commander Xu, retreat quickly! We need to find others and join forces to fight together!"
Huang Jun hurriedly turned her head and shouted a few times, only to find Xu Shu standing there dumbfounded, seemingly paralyzed with fear, and even the "Iron Wall" meant to protect them became an obstacle preventing their smooth escape.
In desperation, she had no choice but to look around, glance at nearby teams that had finished off monsters and were waiting for the cave to "mature," and blew a whistle, sending out a loud, long shriek to seek assistance, calling them to come and join in subduing the third-tier ram-head.
This was an unspoken rule on the battlefield of the "Endless Valley."
If a third-tier monster was spewed out, dozens or even hundreds of second-tier forces would gang up to exterminate it, attacking with numbers and sharing in the battle’s spoils!
However, at this moment, Huang Jun discovered that the nearby Transcendent teams, upon seeing the situation on her side, not only refused to help but instead showed schadenfreude smiles and then simultaneously withdrew, hiding atop buildings to watch the show!
"No...why is it like this..." Huang Jun’s face turned deathly pale.
Not just her, but the other three women were also dumbfounded, never expecting such a thing to happen.
"Hee hee!"
At this moment, after a few seconds of buffering, the ram-head Corpse King fully adapted to the weightless sensation of being spewed out, twisted its body, and targeted the nearest group of people as its primary aggro target, swooping down from mid-air with a bloodthirsty and violent aura.
Boom!
Faster than lightning, that terrifying, half-human, half-ghoul face came right up to them!
Through the semi-transparent golden shield, its mouth corner split open all the way to the back of its head, showing a grotesque smile to the people inside, and raised its claws to stab through.
"No!!!"
The killing intent from the Third Realm existence pressed on them like a mountain, causing the four women’s bodies to tremble as if they were sifters.
Though separated by the Iron Wall, being stared down by a Corpse King with such a gaze, how could anyone with mere second-tier cultivation withstand the psychological pressure?
At this moment, it was as if even their fighting spirit had been obliterated, and the weapons in their hands brought no sense of security, making them only want to flee, yet they couldn’t escape, trapped inside the Iron Wall Fortress.
So, they cast their pleading eyes toward Xu Shu, begging in a weak, fly-like tone.
"Are... are we going to die?!"
"Xu... Commander Xu?"
"Run, run away!"
"Don’t stop, ahhhh!!"
Watching as the Corpse King’s claws came into contact with the Iron Wall, the light-covered shield seemed about to be crushed like tofu in their view, and time seemed to pause for a second.
In the minds of the four, uncontrollably and inexplicably, some distant memories resurfaced like faded old photos.
Such as the grievance when a crush was snatched by a ’green tea,’ or the pride upon discovering transcendental qualifications...
Yet at this moment, Xu Shu calmly extended his hand.
Just as the ram-head Corpse King was fully immersed in its longing for the tender and juicy flesh of the four women and hadn’t noticed Xu Shu’s "alien" presence - Xu Shu grabbed its neck and dragged it down from the sky.
