Chapter Thirty: Continuous Slaughter

  No one had expected that Huo Hai would suddenly stop following the previous pattern, but instead speed up. No one dared to get close and directly monitor Huo Hai's movements, they could only rely on rumors and clues, and couldn't react in time.

  By the time they came to their senses, it was unknown how much time had passed. Since the decision had been made, Huo Hai would no longer evade. If someone blocked his path forward, then he would kill that person.

  If there is a group of people blocking my way, I will kill the whole group. If there are thousands and millions of people blocking my way, I will kill all those who dare to block me until no one dares to block me anymore. As for myself, as long as I can stick to my heart and not be lost in the killing, isn't that enough? Huo Hai has already figured it out completely.

  "Haha, this is the true essence of being a bad person. I was too naive before. Mayhem will last for a thousand years, and on this continent, I don't just want to live for a thousand years, I must live longer than anyone else."

  Hu Hai let out a loud roar in his heart, and his footsteps quickened once again. Unbeknownst to him, the blood in Hu Hai's body began to boil, and his cultivation unknowingly rose once more. The spiritual energy's refinement of his own blood had deepened by another layer.

  In this state, Huo Hai's speed continued to accelerate, and as he approached the peak of Ling Xue's power, even keeping up with him was somewhat difficult.

  "What's wrong with this guy, how did he suddenly become so fast and powerful? Honestly, if I hadn't cultivated the Fruit of Body technique, I probably wouldn't have been able to keep up. This little guy, won't he intentionally try to shake me off? Hmph, does he think it's that easy to get rid of me? I'd like to see what he can do."

  Hu Hai knew what Ji Mu was thinking, and at this time Hu Hai completely ignored the surrounding accumulation cards. When encountering a spiritual beast, he avoided it from afar. Except for leaving more than 200 star gu behind to protect himself, all the others dispersed.

  One hundred Star Worms were constantly monitoring the surroundings, while the remaining Star Worms concentrated forward, ready to fight at any time. Soon, Huo Hai encountered the few people closest to himself. These few people kept searching for something around them.

  "Hmph, you're just tracking experts, great. Since you dare to come and find trouble with me, go die for me." Huo Hai's heart was furious, his blood boiling. It seemed that due to the killing, his whole body had become excited.

  The star worms, under the command of Huo Hai, immediately took action against these people. Several star worms flew out and quickly pierced the throats of those who were investigating their own kind. A few people didn't even have time to make a sound before being bitten to death by the star worms. Next, a large number of star worms flew over and began devouring the corpses. In just an instant, nothing was left of these people.

  Huo Hai glanced over, his eyes filled with disdain: "Hmph, not even a single loyalty card, purely just a laborer, how vexing." After releasing the panic in his heart, Huo Hai's uncomfortable feeling surprisingly vanished completely.

  What Huo Hai needs to do now is to wipe out these people cleanly. Ji Mu frowned, looking at Huo Hai with a worried face. Huo Hai's current state was very wrong, as if he had heard it somewhere before. What exactly was wrong with this state?

  Hu Hai didn't care about these people, and after eliminating them, Hu Hai ran forward again. Xing Huang had already fully explored the road ahead before Hu Hai arrived. After a moment, Hu Hai learned of the location of the large troop's route. Not long after, Hu Hai hid far away on a tree, looking down at the large troop below, a group of over eighty people.

  "What's wrong with him." Ji Mu looked at this group of people and suddenly frowned, saying in a low voice.

  Huo Hai's hearing was extremely sensitive, and his foundation was not built in vain. Upon hearing Ji Mu's voice, Huo Hai turned around and asked, "Who is this person? Do you know him?" Unbeknownst to himself, his words were laced with killing intent at that moment.

  It seems that Ji Mu's body was startled by the killing intent in Huo Hai's words, and his body actually trembled slightly. Afterwards, he took a deep breath and said softly: "That person is a loose cultivator, and he is very famous among the young generation of loose cultivators in our Western Border. His father is the leader of a very large mercenary group, but such a group doesn't count for much to us."

  She stole a glance at Huo Hai and found that he didn't make any other moves, so Ji Mu's turbulent heart gradually calmed down.

  "Due to his father's influence, he has a high reputation among mercenaries and adventurers, and can gather a large group of people wherever he goes. Of course, he also treats these people well, so he is very famous among them."

  Huo Hai nodded: "For me, whether this guy is dangerous or not." The killing intent in Huo Hai's tone did not weaken at all. At this moment, Huo Hai was like a huge barrel of explosives, ready to explode at any moment.

  It seems that he has already gotten used to it, and Ji Mu didn't have any reaction: "Like other mercenaries, he is extremely disgusted with people from large families like us. As long as he has the opportunity, he will make things difficult for us. If he hadn't always been careful not to cross the line, he would have been eliminated long ago. I think that today, this opportunity, he definitely won't let you go easily. The chance to kill a family heir is rare."

  She took a surreptitious glance at Hao Hai, and Ji Mu also wanted to see how he would react upon receiving this news.

  Huo Hai's eyes narrowed slightly, releasing a dangerous glow. Fortunately, he was facing away from Ji Mu, so it wasn't seen. "That means they're thinking of doing me harm, fine, killing them won't be a big deal either."

  What, Hao Hai is going to kill people? Listening to him, it seems that he still wants to kill all these people. Originally, he thought that Hao Hai was just going to eliminate their leader or show off his powerful strength and then negotiate with them. But Hao Hai's actions didn't have the slightest intention of negotiating, this is simply a killing devil! Wait, killing devil, no good.

  Ji Meng suddenly realized the current state of Huo Hai, he was now in a very dangerous situation. Unfortunately, before she could speak, Huo Hai had already rushed out. Xing Huang had already taken action ahead of time at the moment Huo Hai made his move.

  One by one, the mercenaries fell to the ground. The others had not yet reacted to the sudden change when Hao Hai rushed out. He held a sharp bone spur in his hand, with a faint glow emanating from it as he manipulated his spiritual energy.

  Two mercenaries who were caught off guard had their hearts pierced by Huo Hai, blood splashing out and spraying his face. Huo Hai didn't wipe it away, his eyes began to turn crimson. The blood was boiling more and more, in his heart there was only one word: kill.

  Fortunately, Huo Hai still has a part of Xing Huang protecting himself now, otherwise it's unknown what would happen.

  "What kind of person are you, why did you attack us?" A mercenary shouted loudly while carefully looking around. An unknown dark object was launching an attack on them. Just a moment ago, it had only flashed for a moment, but now more than half of them were down. Looking at their struggling appearance, this thing might be poisonous, who dared to be careless.

  Huò Hǎi didn't say a word, continuing his slaughter. Fortunately, those who had reacted in time knew how to dodge and parry. Although they were injured, they didn't let Huò Hǎi have his way. Huò Hǎi's eyes were red, his heart empty of everything except for the single character "kill".

  "Bastard, don't ask, this guy is our target, take him down." At this time, a handsome young man in the crowd suddenly said loudly. Everyone took a closer look, and it turned out that this guy was indeed their own target.

  They said they were two people, so the other one must be the person who just used a hidden weapon.

  But things couldn't wait for them to think so much, Huo Hai's fighting skills became more and more skilled as he continued to fight. The two bone spurs in his hand were like two sharp awls. Every move was very direct, yet had a very subtle trajectory. The lethality was getting stronger and stronger, every move existed to kill people.

  Huò Hǎi doesn't know when to advance or retreat, which makes them somewhat annoyed. However, since he's an enemy, they might as well kill him. Then, they can see if there's a way to save the others. They haven't realized yet that the people who fell to the ground have already died in such a short time.

  "Hmph, so you want to kill me? Go die!" Huo Hai also heard the voice and turned his body, charging towards the person. His entire body was filled with a frenzied and bloodthirsty energy, making anyone feel terrified.

  Unfortunately, the gap in cultivation and numbers was a difficult chasm for Huo Hai to cross. When his opponent became completely serious, Huo Hai's attacks were no longer advantageous. Suddenly, a blood flower burst forth, and Huo Hai's shoulder was struck by someone's short sword. The pain spread through his body to his brain. Under the pain, Huo Hai's mind cleared up a bit.

  The Star Gu was ultimately just automatically protecting its master, but there were too few of them and they didn't arrive in time to protect. The other several attacks that hadn't been intercepted had already been blocked by the Star Gu. Huo Hai woke up a bit, while others were shocked.

  What's going on with this guy, why is his spiritual energy even harder than steel and seems to have corrosive properties? The moment the weapon in his hand came into contact with the opponent's spiritual energy, a large area of dense wounds appeared.

  "Damn it, what's going on? Starworms, wipe them out for me." With a command from Huo Hai, the starworms that were still inside the wound, swallowing the corpses, immediately stopped their movements and then burst out of the wound. They directly attacked the people who had not yet died. After Huo Hai lost control, these brainless worms were also hard to control.

  Now that I've sobered up a bit, I'll command these Gu insects to attack. The unlucky mercenaries will be sending out their death notices soon. As per the habits formed earlier, the Star Gu would first target the opponent's throat when attacking.

  Hundreds of star beetles launched a simultaneous attack, and this time the target of the attack was everyone. As soon as the star beetles moved, not to mention ordinary mercenaries, even the top masters among them could not withstand the infiltration of the beetles.
