Divine-level Base-Chapter 40: Victory

The Goblin Leader was especially ferocious. Like a one-man army holding a pass, it swung its massive wooden club, blasting away each and every Black Dog Void Demon that approached.

Without the Goblin Leader acting as the cornerstone of their defense, Ding Xiaoxue would have had to act as a meat shield, which would have made the fight extremely difficult. Although the Big Goblins were far stronger than regular goblins, they were little more than cannon fodder and no match for the Black Dog Void Demons.

By the time over fifty Black Dog Void Demons were taken down one by one, all twenty Big Goblins had been killed. The Goblin Leader was covered in claw marks.

Ding Xiaoxue looked as if she had just been pulled from the water, drenched in sweat and gasping for breath.

The bones of the Black Dog Void Demons were as hard as iron. With every one she killed, Ding Xiaoxue had to use Spiritual Power to enhance her Fine Steel Long Sword; otherwise, the blade would have long since been blunted.

While the ten remaining Black Dog Void Demons were locked in a deadly struggle with Big Black and the Goblin Leader, the Spirit Warrior-level Black Dog Void Demon, which had been standing motionless, suddenly sprang into action. It lunged at the Goblin Leader at twice the speed of a sprinting cheetah.

The Goblin Leader, exhausted from the continuous, fierce fighting, was no match for the Spirit Warrior-level Black Dog Void Demon.

"Dizziness Technique!"

Shu Feng roared.

The Goblin Shaman, which had been hiding in the darkness, began chanting a bizarre incantation. It suddenly pointed its staff at the Spirit Warrior-level Black Dog Void Demon.

A hazy gray light fell upon the body of the Spirit Warrior-level Black Dog Void Demon.

The eyes of the lightning-fast Black Dog Void Demon glazed over, and it froze in mid-air for a split second.

BANG!

Shu Feng fired directly at the Spirit Warrior-level Black Dog Void Demon, blasting a large hole in its body. The powerful impact knocked it back several steps.

The Goblin Leader seized the opportunity, rushed forward, and viciously smashed its club into the Spirit Warrior-level Black Dog Void Demon, sending it flying more than ten meters.

Shu Feng shouted sharply, "It’s not dead yet!!"

The notification for an increase in Soul Power hadn’t appeared, so Shu Feng knew the Spirit Warrior-level Black Dog Void Demon was still alive.

Ding Xiaoxue dashed forward and slashed her sword down upon the head of the Spirit Warrior-level Black Dog Void Demon.

’Crap!’

Ding Xiaoxue’s Long Sword struck the Black Dog Void Demon’s head, but it only penetrated a fraction of an inch before getting stuck. Her Spiritual Power was completely drained.

A ferocious, crimson glint flashed in the eyes of the Spirit Warrior-level Black Dog Void Demon as it lunged straight for Ding Xiaoxue.

Pouncing and biting was the Black Dog Void Demon’s simple yet savage method of attack. If the Spirit Warrior-level demon managed to tackle her, it would bite through Ding Xiaoxue’s throat in one go.

Even though she knew the Black Dog Void Demon’s attack pattern, Ding Xiaoxue, her Physical Strength nearly depleted, was in no position to defend herself.

BANG!

A gunshot rang out at the critical moment. Another bloody hole appeared on the Spirit Warrior-level Black Dog Void Demon’s body, and the terrifying impact threw it backward.

BANG!

A third shot rang out. Shu Feng, who had jogged over to within five meters of the creature, pulled the trigger again, finally landing a headshot and blowing the Spirit Warrior-level Black Dog Void Demon’s head apart.

Gasping for breath, Ding Xiaoxue pulled out her Fine Steel Long Sword. Without a word, she decisively walked back into the cave. She had exhausted both her Spiritual Power and Physical Strength; staying any longer would only make her a burden.

Dizziness Technique!

The Goblin Shaman pointed its Magic Staff at a Black Dog Void Demon.

A hazy gray light fell upon the Black Dog Void Demon. The sturdiest of the demons suddenly stiffened, and the Goblin Leader smashed its head in with a single blow from its club.

BANG!

Shu Feng fired again, blasting a large hole in a Black Dog Void Demon and crippling its ability to fight.

CRACK!

A tiger, surrounded by three Black Dog Void Demons, had its throat bitten out by one of them and fell as a corpse.

BANG! BANG! BANG! 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝒆𝔀𝒆𝙗𝓷𝒐𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝓶

Shu Feng didn’t hold back on his ammunition, firing shot after shot and blasting bloody holes into the Black Dog Void Demons.

Once a Black Dog Void Demon was hit by a Black Crow bullet, a large hole would be blown in its body, causing it to lose over ninety percent of its combat effectiveness. Then, it would be finished off by either the Goblin Leader or Big Black.

Shu Feng hid behind the Goblin Leader, and any Black Dog Void Demon that lunged for him was immediately sent flying by a swing of the leader’s wooden club.

BANG!

With another gunshot, an Armor-Piercing Bullet sank into a Black Dog Void Demon’s head, easily piercing through it and ending its life.

’I’m out of bullets! The cost of this battle was too high.’

Hearing the notification sound of his Soul Power increasing, Shu Feng finally breathed a sigh of relief. He then gritted his teeth, moved forward, and began collecting the corpses of the Black Dog Void Demons, teleporting them one by one into the mysterious Base Space.

’There are sixty-five Black Dog Void Demon corpses here. That’s enough to create thirty-two Black Dog Void Demons and one Spirit Warrior-level Black Dog Void Demon.’

’Trash like the Big Goblins can’t even compare to these Black Dog Void Demons.’

’The corpses of the Big Goblins whose throats were torn out by the Black Dog Void Demons can still be used, but I can only recover one-third of their Soul Power. This means I can restore 7 Big Goblins. The haul from this battle isn’t bad.’

Shu Feng gasped for breath, but his eyes were filled with joy.

A Big Goblin possessed the fighting strength of an adult human male, but in a one-on-one fight, it was no match for a Black Dog Void Demon. If Shu Feng hadn’t been a Spiritual Spear Master armed with the Black Crow, he would have been torn to shreds by the Black Dog Void Demon group long ago.

’Spiritual Spear Masters are so powerful! But unfortunately, I’m low on bullets. I have to use them sparingly!’

Shu Feng’s brow furrowed slightly. After two intense battles, he now only had nineteen Armor-Piercing Bullets, ten Blast Bullets, one Purification bullet, and one Demon-Breaking Bullet left.

’From now on, I’ll try to let Big Black and the others do the fighting. I’ll stay out of it as much as possible and only intervene at critical moments.’

Having made up his mind, Shu Feng walked deeper into the cave.

Inside the cave, illuminated by the faint glow of a single cell phone flashlight, everyone stared at the entrance, their faces filled with a mixture of hope and anxiety.

Ding Xiaoxue had exhausted her Physical Strength and Spiritual Power and lost all ability to fight. If a few Black Dog Void Demons were to enter now, the more than one hundred teachers and students present would become their helpless prey.

Accompanied by the sound of weary footsteps, Shu Feng stepped into the cave.

"Shu Feng, it’s Shu Feng!!"

"He’s alive! We won!!"

"This is great!!"

"..."

Inside the cave, a wave of relief at having survived the ordeal washed over everyone. They cried tears of joy and laughed out loud.
