Chapter 88: Promoted to Sword Guard
"Hmph, just a few lowly undead, overestimating their abilities." Old Master Si let out a cold snort and waved his hand at the two behind him.
The two behind were not demon cultivators, but human tribe cultivists. Their bodies rose up in unison, with two large swords in hand, emitting invisible sword energy, joining the battle group to help the two giant pythons deal with the five corpse soldiers.
"Hey, Mr. Guo, let's get a little closer! Hehe." Old Master She said with a cold smile, smiling at Guo Fei.
"Old Master She, you're looking down on me, I'm not your opponent! Let my underlings play with you instead!" Guo Fei smiled and raised his hand, a giant of the Ghost General level stood majestically in front of him.
Mr. She's face turned gloomy, and with his eyes, he naturally saw that this big man was extraordinary, so he didn't dare to be slow. In an instant, a three-meter-long pale blue light shadow giant snake floated out of his body. The head of the snake was sharp, its waist was thick, and it looked very similar to Mr. She's figure.
The pale blue giant serpent's body turned, opening its mouth to spew out a sharp whistling ice arrow, shooting towards the large corpse soldier. The large corpse held up his long spear, emitting a grey aura, instantly blocking the ice arrow and shattering it into powder.
"Hiss! Hiss! Hiss!" The giant serpent's body shook, and five ice arrows shot out. Three of them struck the big guy, while two struck Guo Fei. They moved as fast as lightning, with two of them changing direction mid-air, bypassing the big guy and heading straight for Guo Fei. Along the way, they let out a sharp whistling sound. A white shadow flashed by, and the snow-white ice arrow arrived right in front of him.
Guo Fei was shocked in his heart, and with a flick of his hand, the knight's corpse soldier instantly blocked himself in front of him. Two ice arrows shot onto the corpse soldier's body, actually piercing through the bronze armor and entering the corpse soldier's body. After the ice arrow entered, the surrounding area instantly crystallized, covering a layer of ice crystals.
The knight's pierced body emitted a wisp of gray mist, enveloping the wound as his flesh slowly recovered. As for the icy chill that froze bodies, the undead soldier was already a cold entity and wasn't affected by it. Instead, he absorbed the chilly air into his body, transforming it into a faintly cold aura.
The ghost general was hit by two ice arrows and was furious, his long spear unfolded and attacked towards Si Lao Ban. Guo Fei discovered that Si Lao Ban had at least mid-level demon general cultivation, and indeed had great strength. Under the pincer attack of the two ghost generals, his beastly aura sprayed out a cluster of blue extreme cold air masses, which transformed into snow crystals in the air, and were controlled by him. The snow crystals were like rotating ice blades, transforming into whirlpools that surrounded the two corpse soldiers. The two corpse soldiers' dark energy was chaotic, bursting left and right within the icy vortex, fighting with his beastly aura.
Two corpse soldiers were caught in the whirlpool, their bodies and ice crystals colliding violently. If not for their bronze armor being sturdy, plus the ghost general-level corpse soldier's body had also become exceptionally robust, and was no longer a flesh-and-blood body, they probably wouldn't have been able to withstand such pain and slaughter.
However, Boss Si was also entangled by two ghost generals of the corpse soldier level. He used his strongest attack to barely surround the two ghost general-level corpse soldiers and wanted to kill them instantly, but he didn't have that ability yet. Therefore, he had no time to attack Guo Fei.
Guo Fei saw the situation, his hand stretched out, and Hu Xiao Yue appeared beside him. Guo Fei instantly drew the Xuan Tie sword from behind his back, and with a swift movement, he charged towards the two giant pythons. Since they had already exposed themselves, it was easy to drag everyone into the battle group, achieving the goal of not letting them escape. For now, all that needed to be done was to devour them wholeheartedly, so as not to bring about even greater trouble for himself.
Mr. She's words are unknown to be true or false, but according to Guo Fei's speculation, even if there is a margin of error, the Wan Shou Xing is still more powerful than an ordinary kingdom force, and it is not something that can be provoked at present. The only way is to cut off the source, prevent the leakage of information, and avoid provoking forces that are currently unable to resist.
Xuan Tie sword struck out a fierce flash, slashing towards the giant python's body. The five undead soldiers were already fighting the giant python and the two Qi cultivators brought by Ye Lao Ban to a stalemate, but with Guo Fei and Hu Xiao Yue joining in, the undead soldiers' morale greatly increased. The invisible death energy surged, forcing the two giant pythons to retreat continuously.
Two giant pythons had no killer moves, relying solely on their massive bodies, hard scales, and constant twisting and whipping. They spewed out swirling vortexes from their mouths, stirring up massive whirlwinds, but despite the impressive display, they were not very effective against high-level warriors.
Guo Fei wielded the Flowing Light Sword, and its blade flashed out a white glow that instantly pierced the giant python's hard body, tearing apart its scales in an instant. The Xuan Tie sword was indeed exceptionally sharp, and the python's scales had been tempered by a hundred years of cultivation, making them extremely tough; ordinary long spears wielded by the undead soldiers couldn't harm it, but under Guo Fei's sword, the python was left with numerous scars from its wounds.
"Hiss" Guo Fei's Flowing Light Sword flashed out, a white light streaked across, cutting off half of the giant python's head. The python instantly collapsed to the ground, rolling twice before slowly losing its breath.
"Xiao Yue, come and collect its blood, dig out the snake's gallbladder, and take the demon's elixir!" Guo Fei Chao said to Hu Xiao Yue who was fighting against two human cultivators. She nodded, her body floated up, and the Xuan Tie sword in her hand attacked the two human cultivators.
Hu Xiaoyue hastily retreated and began collecting the giant python's blood, digging out its demon core and snake gall.
Guo Fei instantly replaced Hu Xiaoyue, and the two corpse soldiers behind him also came to assist in the battle. The giant python killed one of them, causing the already disadvantaged giant python and the two cultivators to be shocked and their minds shaken.
Guo Fei's swordsmanship was extremely fast, instantly piercing the heart of a cultivator and collecting him into the Soldier Symbol space to refine an undead soldier.
Another monk was shocked and hastily retreated, with no intention of fighting, and fled into the dense forest.
"Too late to run!" Guo Fei's body sprang up, his sword technique unfolding as he launched a surprise attack from behind, striking the figure in the back and sending it tumbling down, its body sucked into the Soldier Symbol space to be refined into an undead soldier.
Another giant python relied on its strong body scales, still stubbornly holding on, but under the siege of five corpse soldiers, many places on the scales were bleeding, but they did not tear apart. However, it was clear that its strength was almost exhausted, and even the range of movement of its body had decreased a lot, and the whirlwind in its mouth could no longer be sprayed out.
"Die!" Guo Fei shouted loudly, relying on the sharpness of his Xuan Tie sword, and with one slash, he instantly cut off half of its skull.
"Boom!" A huge warm current seemed to pour into his body, Guo Fei felt a dull ache in his meridians, and the sword light virtual shadow suddenly reflected in his mind, all the original sword shadows turned milky white, and shone like a strong spotlight.
"Sword Guardian Fifth Level!" Guo Fei was overjoyed in his heart, after killing countless undead and slaughtering for so many days, he finally advanced to Sword Guardian.
Jian Wei, in the game, is described as: Jian Wei is an upgraded version of Jian Bing, with increased attack speed and attack power. It can launch a "jian mang" attack, which can kill up to three enemy soldiers in front of it at most.
Guo Fei recalled that what made him most concerned was the "Sword Tip" attack, and it should be possible to launch a remote attack. Guo Fei, with an excited heart, activated the hot flow of sword shadows within his body.
Guo Fei was extremely nervous and excited in his heart. If the military type is upgraded, he will obtain powerful attack skills, and he will have a foothold in this world by relying on the military type. If there are no strong attack skills, he might as well "shrink" and become a normal person.
"Hiss!" Guo Fei, with an awkward feeling in his heart, poured the hot flow of sword shadows into the body of the sword. A dazzling white light burst out from the body of the sword, stretching out three meters far, almost like a solid white silk ribbon.
Guo Fei lightly swiped his foot on the hard rock below, shattering the black stone into powder like cutting tofu. The attack power and explosive force contained within were several times stronger than the Formless True Qi. Could this be the "Sword Tip"? It was estimated to be comparable to the Yuan Qi attack, yet Guo Fei had not opened up his source boundary, but possessed a Sword Tip that could rival the Yuan Qi attack, leaving him extremely astonished.
He couldn't help but feel ecstatic in his heart, and even Hu Xiaoyue was stunned. The dazzling sword light of Guo Fei made her stare blankly without a word.
"Hiss!" Boss She naturally saw it too, and was shocked. Several of his subordinates had been killed in battle, and two ghostly soldiers had him under control. As for Guo Fei and the others, he didn't care about them at all - they were a whole level below him, which made them as different as heaven and earth. He believed that as long as he could kill the two zombie soldiers, dealing with Guo Fei and the others would be easy.
However, Guo Fei's sword aura emitted a dazzling light, causing his spirit to be greatly shaken. If another strong martial artist were to join him, he wouldn't dare say he had an advantage. Moreover, Guo Fei's endless tactics made him thoroughly frightened, and he turned around to retreat hastily.
