Chu Yunfan only let out a sigh of relief after the Thunder Winged Beast had killed the vice-captain of the Blood Wolf Gang. Only then did he have the time to treat the wound on his hand.
Chu Yunfan had always been the one who had torn open the thumb and palms of others. Now, it was finally his turn. The gap between him and the vice-captain was too great. Even though his physical fitness was several times that of one in the same stage, the gap between them was far too vast. There was nothing he could do about it. Just now, they had only exchanged about twenty moves, but Chu Yunfan felt as if he had walked through the gates of Hell. That pressure had weighed on him heavily, forcing him to do his best every minute and every second. Otherwise, he might have died. After this feeling of narrowly escaping death, came a feeling of contentment.
“Hahahaha, this is great! This is so satisfying!”
Chu Yunfan laughed out loud. Deep down, he yearned for this kind of knife fight. That was the romance of a man.
The Thunder Winged Beast was quietly standing guard next to Chu Yunfan, not letting anything happen to him.
“Let’s go.”
Chu Yunfan quickly climbed onto the Thunder Winged Beast’s back and pointed forward. Soon, he rode the Thunder Winged Beast away from the ruins and headed back toward the wilderness survival training ground.
However, Chu Yunfan did not stay idle. During the trip, he quickly concocted the One-Stripe Purple-gold Pill in the space of the Mountain River Diagram. That was his true trump card.
Although the Thunder Winged Beast was only in its growth stage, it was already an Acquired Stage monster that did not have any natural enemies. As long as it did not encounter an Innate Stage monster king, it would not face any problems. Upon sensing the aura of a powerful monster from the Thunder Winged Beast, ordinary monsters would take a detour before they even saw it. They would not dare approach this powerful being.
In the space of the Mountain River Diagram, Chu Yunfan’s eyes were fixed on the alchemical furnace. It had been several hours and he had done everything he needed to do. He was just waiting for the pill to come out of the furnace.
With the sound of steam being released, the alchemy furnace automatically opened, and a rich fragrance spread out. Chu Yunfan felt that with just a single breath, he was already flying. The effect of the One-stripe Purple-Gold Pill was indeed amazing. Just smelling its fragrance gave him a feeling of being reborn. If it was the Nine-stripe Purple-gold Pill, how amazing would its effect be?
The entire pill was purple-gold, and there was an inexplicable light flowing through it. It was extraordinary.
After Chu Yunfan put the pill away in a bottle, he left the mysterious space. By now, the Thunder Winged Beast had traveled nearly half of the distance. Chu Yunfan sent the Thunder Winged Beast into the space of the Mountain River Diagram. They were now very close to the wilderness survival training ground. To avoid exposing the Thunder Winged Beast, Chu Yunfan had the beast hide within the Mountain River Diagram.
Then, he began to rush toward the training grounds. As he was about to get close, he saw the monsters in the distance being driven away by something. They rushed toward the direction of the training ground.
“Monster swarm!” Chu Yunfan immediately knew. There was only one possibility for such a large-scale attack of monsters, and that was a monster swarm. And with a monster swarm happening now, it was not difficult to guess who was behind it.
‘This isn’t good. The Monster Cult has made their move!’ Chu Yunfan thought to himself.
No matter how deeply the people from the cult had infiltrated human society, there was no doubt that they could not compete with the army in terms of numbers. It was unrealistic for them to organize an army to fight. However, the cult had a unique secret method that could temporarily control monsters, forming terrifying monster swarms that would attack the human army. These monster swarms would pose a great threat to humankind.
Chu Yunfan was worried about Gao Hongzhi and Tang Siyu’s safety, so he hurriedly flew toward the training ground.
“Just as I expected. I’ve been waiting for you,” a cold voice suddenly sounded, and two figures appeared in front of Chu Yunfan. They were none other than the two undercover spies from the cult who were posing as soldiers who had chased Chu Yunfan previously.
One of them was a plump man with a medium build. He held a huge hammer in his hand and possessed astonishing divine power. The other was a muscular man who had a knife in his hands as he stared pointedly at Chu Yunfan.
“As expected, you’ll eventually return. This is the limit of a student,” the plump man sneered as he spoke, trying to use his words to attract Chu Yunfan’s attention. The other one had quietly come up on Chu Yunfan from behind. They were planning to pincer him from the front and back.
These two were both experienced in hundreds of battles and did not need to communicate much. They could understand each other with just a glance.
“So it’s the two of you. Both of you will meet your end here,” Chu Yunfan said. Previously, he had been forced to flee. Now, it was time for him to take revenge.
Chu Yunfan took a step forward. His body was like a cannonball as he flew straight out. His target was the plump man who was holding a huge hammer.
“You trying to get past me? Do you think I’m slow just because I’m fat? Huge mistake!” The medium-sized fatty roared. The hammer in his hand smashed out like lightning. The air seemed to split apart, causing a huge explosion.
Although this plump man looked extremely large and did not look like he could move very fast, he was as fast as lightning. The huge hammer in his hand looked as if it weighed nothing.
It was truly terrifying!
Chu Yunfan stomped his foot and continuously executed the fourth transformation of the Heavenly Deity Nine Transformations. Then, he came to a sudden halt. In front of him, the gigantic hammer smashed down and landed on the ground.
Boom!
A loud collision sound rang out as the entire ground was smashed apart. The ground shook violently. If Chu Yunfan had been any slower, he would have been smashed into a meat patty. This strength far surpassed that of the vice-captain of the Blood Wolf Gang whom Chu Yunfan had fought earlier. It was comparable to an Acquired Stage expert.
However, the plump man did not have the time to be complacent. He saw a blue figure dart out like a bolt of blue lightning.
This plump man was fast, but this figure was even faster. With lightning speed, it struck out with its paw. After that, the plump man was sent flying.
However, this blue lightning did not stop and chased after the plump man who was soaring through the air. The claws hidden within the soles of its feet suddenly shot out, and like a large knife, chopped down.
The plump man’s head was chopped off.
All of this happened in just a split second.
