Chapter 2934: Killing Machine (2)

This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl

No matter how strong it is, in the end, it’s just a "corpse", and it can’t possibly withstand the Great Chief of the Gao Tu Tribe, over twenty Barbarian Generals, and a crowd of Barbarian Soldiers proficient in Poison Techniques.

Gao Du slowly let out a sigh of relief.

But he didn’t dare to be careless, as prior lessons were still fresh in his mind.

This corpse, when strong, kills people; when weak, it "eats" people.

Moreover, eating people isn’t what’s frightening; what’s terrifying is that it eats "Golden Cores".

"Be extremely careful, subdue this thing, don’t give it a chance..."

Gao Du sternly commanded.

The crowd responded with a "yes", but often the more you instruct and warn, the more mistakes are likely to happen.

Especially during such tense times, facing this terrifying monster that devours Golden Cores.

A Barbarian General from the Gao Tu Tribe got slightly closer to the "Lugu" corpse, just half a foot away, perhaps out of fear or exhaustion, his leg slightly buckled, and his focus wavered.

When he stopped and opened his eyes again, he found the pitch-black, empty eyes of "Lugu" staring at him.

The black eyes were like an abyss.

A streak of blue light, captivating the soul.

The Barbarian General from the Gao Tu Tribe, filled with fear, momentarily forgot what to do, and in the next instant, searing pain shot through him.

His abdomen had already been pierced by the large hands of the corpse.

Then he watched helplessly as the Golden Core he had cultivated his whole life was dug out bloodily and devoured by that "monster".

His eyes were filled with immense terror, yet he was powerless to change the situation. He kneeled to the ground with a thud and perished there.

As soon as the Barbarian General died, a commotion broke out, shaking the hearts of the Gao Tu Tribe people.

More so because, at close range, they witnessed the scene of "Lugu" consuming a Golden Core alive, experiencing firsthand the taste of fear.

Gao Du was shocked and furious, secretly cursing these incompetents, but a slight panic also arose in his heart.

Because after consuming the Golden Core, the "Lugu" corpse that had weakened just now had its mysterious blue patterns flash, and it became strong again.

Gritting his teeth, Gao Du said, "Quick, suppress it again! Be extremely careful, don’t let it kill again!"

Having said that, Gao Du activated his cultivation technique, grasped his Bone Blades, and charged towards Lugu again.

But this time, with fear in his heart, hesitation already crept into his fighting.

In contrast, "Lugu", having just consumed another Golden Core, had its Taotie Patterns flicker, and its Spiritual Power began to recover.

And not only that, after several fierce battles, its moves appeared noticeably smoother and more varied.

It seemed it had also adapted to this body. It was still getting stronger.

Gao Du was anxious, but as the Great General, there was no turning back. He could only brace himself and continue the bloody battle with the "Lugu" corpse.

Under the collective effort, soon, a familiar scene repeated itself.

The "Lugu" corpse was suppressed, the blue light on it began to dim, and its movements started to slow again.

But Gao Du didn’t feel any relief, instead, he grew more fearful, as if walking on thin ice.

Because he knew this corpse monster was about to "eat" Golden Cores again.

But no matter how cautious he was, it was useless.

As the Great General, with high cultivation and rich battle experience, he could protect his own Golden Core from being extracted by Lugu.

But he couldn’t protect the Golden Cores of the other Barbarian Generals of the Gao Tu Tribe.

Eventually, with one misstep, blood splattered, and another Barbarian General from the Gao Tu Tribe had his Golden Core dug out and consumed by Lugu.

Gao Du’s mental state completely collapsed.

It’s over...

The "Lugu" corpse indeed had no particularly special moves or strategies.

It’s just thick-skinned and sturdy, unafraid of blades and poison, with great strength, able to withstand and strike, its moves straightforward and quickly executed.

But the problem is, while it can withstand and fight back, it can also "consume" Golden Cores to replenish Spiritual Power.

Gao Du could defeat it, but couldn’t kill it. To completely suppress it requires a collective effort, taking turns to deplete it.

Without a group effort, there’s no withstanding it.

Yet, once everyone teams up, it’s akin to delivering "Golden Cores" right to its mouth, providing it with "replenishment".

It’s like throwing buns at a dog; the more you throw, the less you have.

Mo Du was right, the entire "Golden Core" of the Gao Tu Tribe became steamed buns.

Without the suppression of top-level combat power, the Corpse Monster of Sishen became truly "reckless."

Its moves are simple, a punch and a kick, which makes them brutally effective.

Driven by the Taotie Pattern, almost every punch, every kick, would take a life from the Gao Tu Tribe.

The crowd’s siege could break its skin and corrode its flesh, but they couldn’t kill it.

It is originally a "deadman," how could it die again?

Typically, even a Late Golden Core Stage cultivator cannot withstand the "human wave" tactics, successive mixed battles, and attrition.

But the corpse of Sishen is different.

It can eat "Golden Cores," eager to slaughter in human waves, killing and eating simultaneously, like a "perpetual machine," unable to die or be hurt.

Especially when facing a large number of Barbarian Soldiers, as long as Sishen isn’t dead, it can continue killing.

But since Sishen is already "dead," it will continue to kill until all enemies are dead...

This is a seemingly simple yet terrifying, pure "killing machine."

In the toxic swamp, Sishen’s body is like a mountain, the sinister Taotie Pattern flickers with bizarre blue light, eating and killing simultaneously, like an ancient Fierce Beast walking through the purgatory of dead bodies, slaughtering living beings in the world.

Moreover, "Sishen" becomes stronger the more it kills, the stronger it gets the more it eats.

The more it kills, the more agile its limbs become, the simpler its moves get, and the faster it kills.

The more it eats, the Taotie Pattern on its body gets fully activated, gradually merging with the bones, becoming one.

Sishen becomes increasingly like a humanoid "Taotie" monster.

Seeing more and more people die and "Sishen" grow stronger, as a General, Mo Du feels like he is falling into an ice cellar, completely losing the will to resist.

Mo Du escaped.

With Mo Du’s escape, other officers of the Gao Tu Tribe also completely collapsed.

The Sishen with Taotie Pattern, like a "killing machine," single-handedly slaughtered the Third Grade Gao Tu Tribe.

Not only the Gao Tu Tribe, everyone was fearfully desperate.

Even the Barbarian Soldiers of Vermilion Bird Mountain were all terrified, faces pale.

As the Great Chief Lu Gu looked at his brother Sishen in his current form, he was shocked and stunned.

Only Mo Hua remained calm all along.

Seeing the Gao Tu Tribe’s defeat and the frontline lost, Mo Hua, with indifferent eyes, waved his hand and ordered:

"Wear Poison Protection Armor and charge, annihilate the Gao Tu Tribe..."

"Yes, Lord of the Temple!"

The Barbarian Soldiers of Vermilion Bird Mountain all changed into a set of tribal leather armor with dark green patterns.

This Poison Protection Armor was specially crafted for crossing the toxic swamp of Green You Mountain Realm, commissioned by the Divine Lord Mo Hua.

However, this Poison Protection Armor has high poison resistance but very poor other defenses. If ambushed by the Gao Tu Tribe during the crossing of the toxic swamp, Vermilion Bird Mountain Barbarian Soldiers would suffer heavy casualties.

At this moment, with the Gao Tu Tribe collapsed by Sishen bearing the Taotie Pattern and the defeat and escape of General Mo Du, it was naturally the best opportunity to traverse the toxic swamp.

Everything was within Mo Hua’s expectations.

Lu Gu, infected by the Hundred Viper’s venom, temporarily suppressed the toxicity and put on a set of Poison Protection Armor, leading the way, personally leading the army of Vermilion Bird Mountain, stepping into the poison swamp of Green You Mountain Realm.

The Divine Blessing Army began their invasion.

This was also the first time in thousands of years that the poison-swamped Green You Mountain Realm had been invaded on such a large scale by "external enemies."

This was unprecedented in the history of the entire Mountain Realm.

Once they crossed the poison swamp, the subsequent poison miasma and poison forests would be relatively simple.

Under Mo Hua’s guidance, and with Lu Gu leading the charge, after half a month of fighting, the main territory of the Third Grade Gao Tu Tribe was breached.

The heavily wounded General Mo Du was captured alive, the Great Chief of the Gao Tu Tribe fled, and the remaining people surrendered.

Thus, the largest tribe in the Third Grade Green You Mountain Realm, the Gao Tu Tribe, was conquered.

And Mo Hua also verified the feasibility of the Twelve Scripture Gluttonous Spirit Corpse Extremist Formation through "actual combat," using Sishen’s corpse.

Simultaneously, it proved that he had initially comprehended and mastered the Taotie Spirit Remains Formation created by the mysterious Great Witch of the Great Wilderness, containing the vicious Taotie Law, graded as Second Grade Twenty-four Patterns, a difficulty extremely defying, with all its complexity.

And this Taotie Spirit Remains Formation will soon become his Core Formation...

Lifebound Formation.
