Li Yao had no idea that countless pairs of shocked eyes were gazing at him. He was still dwelling in the shocking punch a moment ago.
The explosive force of the iron armored armadillo was quite astonishing. The punch had heavily wounded him, too. Quite a few of his finger bones had been shattered.
However, the enormous blast seemed to have opened a gate inside his body that had been sealed for a long time. Uncanny strength was unleashed, accelerating the healing of his bones and making his blood boil even more!
Although the redness on the Scorpion Tail Sword had faded, crazily surging redness was still vaguely dancing around the longsword. It was his uncontainable fighting will and killing intent!
Li Yao roared. Carrying the giant sword on his shoulder, he lunged into the area where the beast tide was densest!
It was almost impossible to distinguish reality from illusion. Sometimes, he realized that he was competing with the apocalyptic beasts on Iron Plateau, and sometimes, he forgot everything and thought that he was a Titan Warrior fighting ferocious insects on an unknown alien planet.
The range of his brainwaves was larger and larger, and the frequency of his brainwaves was higher and higher. He could clearly sense the fighting will of everybody around him, which was almost tangible. The entire battlefield was a boiling ocean of fighting will!
Waving the sword, slaughtering, exploding! Every time he waved his sword, every cluster of his nerve endings would shiver uncontrollably, bringing him indescribable pleasure. It also allowed him to have a deeper understanding of the true meaning of slaughter.
Suddenly, there was nothing in front of him. There was not a single target to kill anymore.
Li Yao was somehow frustrated. It was not until this moment that he heard Shi Meng shouting behind him, "Sand Scorpion! Sand Scorpion! Retreat now! You've been killing for two hours. Your spiritual gas is running out. Retreat now! "
Li Yao was greatly alarmed. His burning brain seemed to have been stimulated by a bucket of cold water. He had finally regained the ability to think normally.
But in his memory, the battle had only just begun. It had been five minutes at most.
He finally understood why so many qi-trainers were so obsessed with killing that they refused to retreat from the battlefield even when they were exhausted.
The feeling was too wonderful. He felt that he was addicted to it and was sinking deeper and deeper. He could not free himself.
The Sky Scorpion Armor was almost a pile of scrap metal. The Scorpion Tail Greatsword was full of gaps, as if it had become a serrated sword. There was not a single part of his body that did not hurt. Several of his meridians felt as if they had been clamped by red-hot iron pincers. Strands of True Qi were running amok in his body.
Li Yao let out a muffled groan and almost knelt down on one knee. He hurriedly stabbed his giant sword into the ground and used it as a crutch to support himself.
As far as the eye could see, he discovered that he was practically swimming against the tide of exotic beasts, advancing over a thousand meters, leaving behind a bloody path behind him. The surrounding four to five hundred meters were covered in colorful exotic beast body fluids. It was impossible to distinguish the original appearance of the dismembered corpses.
Those who were still alive in the distance only dared to poke their heads in this direction, but they didn't dare to approach. With Li Yao as the center, it was as if the area within five to six hundred meters had become a swamp of death!
Shi Meng and a few members of the Iron Bears Detonation Team rushed close, picked up Li Yao, and ran back. Their voices were shivering. "Sand Scorpion, you are too crazy. You are even tougher than Chief Xiong years ago. You have broken out of the frontline and marched so deep into the beast tide on your own. You almost pierced through the beast tide!
"Just now, the chiefs and experts of many tribes were asking about you. You are now famous among the six tribes! Chief Xiong asked me to withdraw you so that you can take a rest and replenish your Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures and True Qi balloons. It won't be too late for you to fight again! "
Li Yao breathed heavily for a moment before he finally felt extremely exhausted. His body seemed to be enshrouded in a cluster of thick, sticky black tide that was still spreading upward. He was so exhausted that he did not even have the strength to blink.
Right then —
The ground suddenly shook violently, and a powerful shockwave came from the depths of the black fog, accompanied by a sharp and shrill whistling sound.
Everybody within five kilometers was knocked to the ground. Even the heavy tanks weighing dozens of tons were overturned and pushed dozens of meters away!
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
The black fog constricted, expanded, constricted, and expanded again. Like an enormous heart more than ten kilometers in diameter, it was uttering deafening heartbeats.
As the frequency of the constriction and expansion grew higher and higher, ten seconds later, an enormous apocalyptic beast dozens of meters long soared into the sky above the black fog like a flower bud being torn apart!
The apocalyptic beast was obviously different from the ghost-level apocalyptic beasts and the dragon-level apocalyptic beasts earlier. It was more or less a hybrid of a mosquito and a longhorn beetle. It was covered in an oily, black shell that was full of golden stripes. It was obviously an insect-type apocalyptic beast, but it had the dominance of a lion-type beast. Its antennae were more than fifty meters long. Like two enormous antennae, they were shivering nonstop and releasing earsplitting noises!
Hiss! Hiss! Hiss!
It was an extremely intense mental attack!
"It — it's a calamity-level apocalyptic beast! The strongest calamity-level apocalyptic beast in this apocalypse! "Shi Meng bellowed.
All the qi-trainers within hundreds of meters of the calamity-level apocalyptic beast, regardless of their capability, were staggering as if they were drunk. Many of them were covering their ears with their hands. Some of them were even digging their ears hard with their fingers until they were bleeding, but they still could not stop the noises from penetrating into their heads.
Very soon, some of them were foaming at the mouth, some were bleeding from their facial orifices, and some even had bumps on their heads, as if the pressure inside their heads had been increased to the maximum and was about to break their skulls!
Normal longhorn beetles only had a weak phototaxis and could identify objects with their antennae.
This calamity-level longhorn beetle, however, had a pair of enormous crimson compound eyes, which gave it excellent eyesight. Its ossified wings were opened, and sixteen air currents spurted out of its back. It swooped down at a high speed and jammed a heavy tank with its long limbs, dragging the tank dozens of tons into the sky. After hovering for a moment, it smashed down heavily into an enormous war machine. After a deafening explosion, the two war machines were both reduced to scrap iron!
"A calamity-level apocalyptic beast has appeared!"
"All those below the 70th level of the Refinement Stage, retreat five hundred meters and clean up the dragon-level and ghost-level apocalyptic beasts on the battlefield!"
"The apocalyptic beasts are best at mental attacks. All qi-trainers who are good at mental attacks, attack them first!"
Thunderous noises were echoing above the battlefield.
DONG! DONG! DONG!
DONG! All the qi-trainers below the 70th level of the Refinement Stage were retreating from the calamity-level apocalyptic beast. However, the eight drum tanks of the Giant Axe Tribe were still marching forward. The noises of the drums grew louder and louder, too. The eight heavy drum tanks were as intimidating as eight crystal warships!
The drums of the Giant Axe Tribe were the best magical equipment for mental attacks. They could be used to boost morale and increase fighting will, as well as resist the mental bombardment of the enemy!
DONG! DONG! DONG! DONG! DONG! DONG!
DONG! DONG! The overwhelming sounds of the drums rose up from the ground and bombarded the calamity-level apocalyptic beast!
The calamity-level apocalyptic beast shrieked and suddenly opened its mouth, spurting out a black tornado!
The tornado was wriggling and twisting in midair.
Li Yao observed carefully, only to discover that the tornado was actually made of tiny black beetles!
The beetle tornadoes buzzed and surrounded a Giant Axe Drum Cart in an instant. Then, with a boom, every black beetle was set ablaze and turned into little fireballs that flew everywhere!
The burning beetles were not dead yet. They smashed at the drum tanks in a hurry. Whatever they hit, they would explode.
The beetles contained a lot of oily substances inside their bodies. Once they exploded, there was no way to stop them. The drum tanks were immediately caught in an ocean of fire. All the qi-trainers who were beating the drums were set on fire!
However, even though their bodies were on fire, they were still beating the drums in the fire at the same time!
The sounds of the drums mixed with the flames were brought hundreds of meters high into the sky by the flames, making them even louder and more frenzied.
The other seven drum tanks did not seem to feel anything at all. They continued marching forward.
As long as they were alive, the drums would not stop!
"Kill them!"
"Kill them!"
"Kill them!"
In the reserve teams on the two sides of the canyon, the experts of the six tribes who had been waiting for a long time finally showed up. Taking advantage of the precious time earned by the drum tanks, they dashed close to the calamity-level apocalyptic beast!
Li Yao gritted his teeth and intended to charge forward, too. But his head was dizzy, and his legs were already shaking the moment he lunged forward. He was stopped by two members of the Iron Bears Detonation Team.
"You've been fighting for too long and are exhausted. You must go back and replenish yourself with food and drugs, as well as a new batch of True Qi balloons. Otherwise, you will be killed for nothing!"
Shi Meng strode forward. The Wolf Fangs on his body were uttering clanging noises. He shook his hands and grabbed two Wolf Fangs.
"A war cannot be won by one person. Just take a rest. I'm here. We're here!"
Li Yao felt warm. He nodded heavily and retreated from the battlefield with the help of the two members of the Iron Bears Detonation Team.
"Uncle Sand Scorpion!"
The moment he returned to the iron defense line made of hundreds of heavy tanks, Wu Mayan rushed close.
The young man's face was covered in dust, and there were abrasions and bruises all over his body. Thankfully, none of his limbs were broken, and he was in good spirits.
"Uncle Sand Scorpion, you are too awesome. I saw everything clearly just now. You took down the ghost-level apocalyptic beasts with only one slash. Even the dragon-level apocalyptic beasts were no match for you! You are the most eye-catching person in the battle! "
After more than half a day of chaotic battles, it was already noon. All the qi-trainers on the battlefield were fighting fiercely. Therefore, not only were the qi-trainers of the Furious Bears Tribe retreating to the rear to rest, there were also those of the Silver Moon Tribe and the Heaven Wolves Tribe. Some of the qi-trainers of the Burning Sun Tribe, the Feathered Snakes Tribe, and the Giant Axe Tribe had also retreated to the Furious Bears Tribe's side because they had broken away from the main troop due to the fierce battle and were blocked by the apocalyptic beasts.
The six tribes of Iron Plateau worshipped the strong more than anything. Whether or not they were friendly with the Furious Bears Tribe, Li Yao's valiance had conquered everybody's heart. All the qi-trainers were looking at him in admiration!
The name 'Sand Scorpion' had spread out among many qi-trainers. (To be continued)
