Chapter 211 Comes with Sound System
Chapter 211 Comes with Sound System
Upon reaching the sight of the military camp ahead, Tao Yu estimated it was about two arrows' shot away and halted his horse. Behind him, Cheng Lixue and the members of the training corps also stopped in their tracks.
They all looked at the large camp ahead, their faces showing a weighty seriousness.
On their journey, they had witnessed numerous atrocities committed by the grassland barbarians—burning, killing, and looting.
Each member of the Survey Corps had been arranged to have a taste of bloodshed.
By now, they had adapted to the chaos of the era.
But now, seeing the grassland people's headquarters, their military camp,
Thinking about what they had done along the way, these half-grown youths all felt a tightening in their hearts.
"What's there to fear, we left no survivors," Tao Yu chastised them.
This made Armin feel a bit speechless, then he carefully chose his words and said,
"Perhaps, our spare horses belong to them..."
"They're not named," Tao Yu retorted.
"A few of them are, though," said Armin, a bit embarrassed—the majority bore the marks of branding.
Tao Yu glanced at his own spare horse's rump and seemed to notice the same, then fell silent.
"Why would they write names on our horses? That's too much!" Tao Yu complained.
Hearing Tao Yu say this, Armin shrank his neck and stopped talking.
As the grassland soldiers began to line up in the military camp, Tao Yu turned back to his men and said,
"Stay here and do not wander. Make sure you are more than an arrow's shot away. Their archers are very accurate. I'll go and talk some sense into them."
Tao Yu had learned from Huang Yaoshi and Guo Jing that the greatest threat to martial artists on the grassland were arrows.
A few arrows were no big deal; they could fend them off easily. But a relentless barrage of arrows from the sky, even a top expert of the 'Five Greats' level would be exhausted and perish!
Defending against arrows drained more inner strength than bullets did. Explore more adventures at empire
Yet for Tao Yu himself, with so much Yuan Force as his backup, his confidence was bolstered, unafraid of failure.
Rows of grassland soldiers emerged, and shortly after, a figure that resembled a junior officer made his way to Tao Yu.
Looking at Tao Yu's typical southern appearance, he started berating him,
"How audacious! To collide with the tents, are you seeking death?"
One could tell from his tone that they were accustomed to throwing their weight around.
Even powerful places like Shaolin would submit and offer provisions after they arrived.
Although Tao Yu had led fifty cavalries here, compared to their formation, it was still hardly worth mentioning.
If it weren't for the fact that they approached from the direction where the fast Titan had been lured away, they wouldn't have even bothered to question them.
They would have either chased them away or simply shot them dead!
"I was actually planning to reason with you," Tao Yu said, rubbing his temples with a hint of a headache.
"If you can't understand reason, I have some proficiency in fist and foot," Tao Yu slowly exhaled a breath.
"Seeking death! Release arrows!"
The commander obviously had not an ounce of patience, and his face contorted with malice upon hearing Tao Yu's words.
Had already noticed some beauties in the line behind you, might as well take them down while at it.
The archers didn't hesitate, even though there were only a few dozen of them, they still precisely fired a volley of arrows, completely covering the area around Tao Yu!
Facing these attacks, Tao Yu simply chuckled and leapt into the air, executing a "Seeing the Dragon in the Field" to intercept the arrows nearby and protect the steed beneath him.
After landing, his feet tapped lightly, leaving behind afterimages.
"Bad news! It's a master! Shoot the signal arrows!"
A messenger immediately fired the signal arrows, which shot into the sky with a piercing explosion.
However, the moment the signal arrows were fired, Tao Yu was already upon them, raising his hand and sending four blood-red dragons pouring out from his palm with a move called "Shocking Hundred Miles"!
Accompanied by the dragon's chant, every person in the whole unit was startled to the point of vacancy, and as the horses panicked, all without exception fell from their mounts, which scattered and fled!
These four blood-red dragons roamed, not directly colliding with them, mostly just grazing.
But it was just such a casual graze that made the newly landed soldiers spurt blood and get blasted away upon touch, injured on contact, dead upon collision!
"Indeed, as long as I control my strength not to consume too much, it is still bearable, but I still need to quickly find a way to cultivate the Nine Yang Divine Skill," Tao Yu felt the consumption after the blood dragons' attack but he was very satisfied.
Compared to blowing up the heads of Titans, this was just a 'slight touch' to ordinary people, completely acceptable!
The four blood-red dragons circled back, passing by Tao Yu's side where he restored and slapped them away again!
The soldiers who had just emerged from the camp due to the signal arrows fell like wheat at the sound.
The long handles wielded by the few resisting soldiers snapped upon colliding with the blood dragons, sending them tumbling away with the men.
With the flick of the dragon's tail and the touch of the dragon's body, as long as they didn't explode, the consumption was completely within Tao Yu's acceptable range!
As the Big Dipper True Yuan continued to operate, the vague power of the Big Dipper stars also kept on strengthening him, combined with the traveling energy of the Basic Breathing Method and the earthly power of Stance Skill, it seemed that he could fill the gaps to a certain extent!
"Haha, bring it on!"
Tao Yu directly stuffed four tubes of Nutrient Paste into his mouth, without the slightest hesitation, he began to let loose.
Each clap of his palms sent out another blood-red dragon, each dragon's return was filled with Blood Gang and sent out again by him.
Gradually, more and more blood dragons surrounded him, constantly roaming within five feet of Tao Yu.
Eventually, eighteen converged!
The sky filled with the dragon's chant, one after another, with built-in sound effects!
This caused a massive impact on the military camp's soldiers, delivering a devastating blow to their morale.
Tao Yu plunged into the various squads like a tiger among sheep, blood dragons closely following him! Contact meant collapse!
The influence of Fist Intention mixed with sound skill seemed even greater in group combats, making Tao Yu seem invincible!
Might not have killed that many, but the entire camp felt chaos, no one daring to approach, just running away.
"How is this possible!"
Xiao Xiangzi rushed over to support after hearing the commotion, and upon witnessing the scene of the blood dragons dancing, he almost thought he was seeing things.
The dragon's chant filling his ears further terrified him.
```
How could we still fight!
This isn't human at all!
Run!
Without the slightest hesitation, Xiaoxiangzi turned and ran.
But the moment a master appeared on his side, it directly triggered Tao Yu's Spirit Perception. As Xiaoxiangzi retreated, Tao Yu took advantage of the momentum to send a palm strike in his direction.
The person himself also moved with the force, bringing many dragon shadows flying towards Xiaoxiangzi.
This scared the soul out of Xiaoxiangzi.
Don't come over!
I'm not worth it!
But before he could react, a Blood Dragon had already descended from the sky and penetrated his body from behind.
Boom~
Blood and flesh splattered, and Xiaoxiangzi was blown apart in midair!
However, the Blood Dragon also reduced in size by half, which allowed Tao Yu to regain his senses and hastily consumed another mouthful of Nutrient Paste.
What a waste...
As Xiaoxiangzi died in battle, people like King Golden Wheel and Yin Kexi had also appeared, forming a guard around General Bo Yan.
Everyone was staring at the scene with their eyes wide and mouths agape, completely unable to believe what they were seeing.
With a flick of his hand, a group of dragons flew over and knocked down a crowd.
Another flick, another crowd sent flying!
Good lord, what the hell is this thing?!
Dragons flying in the sky?
Is this a mistake?
The style is all wrong...
"Dharma, Dharma King, what kind of Divine Skill is this?"
Bo Yan asked with a twisted face, maintaining a certain composure, which already showed his strong psychological quality.
"This old monk does not know, watch out, he's coming! General, order the archers to attack from a distance, I will stall him!"
King Golden Wheel was indeed a brave man. When it was time for action, he stepped up.
However, he deliberately slowed down his approach.
Allowing another fool, Nimoxing, wielding a snake-shaped iron whip, to rush to the front.
But before he got within five yards of Tao Yu, he was instantly knocked back and left spewing blood by a Blood Dragon's tail whip.
"Nice move."
Just after clearing the crowd around him, Tao Yu saw Nimoxing being struck down and King Golden Wheel landing in front of him. His eyes lit up slightly; a master!
With a casual palm strike from afar, five of the nearest blood-red dragons, under his control, twisted towards King Golden Wheel from different angles, making King Golden Wheel's face turn green.
Why do I have five?!
After Tao Yu casually launched his attack, he realized it was imprudent—he still needed King Golden Wheel's Vajra Body Divine Skill.
Instantly, he turned his palm into a claw, and with an attractive force, two Blood Dragons twirled back to him, leaving only three continuing their collision course.
"Ha!"
Seeing no way to avoid it, King Golden Wheel had no choice but to face it head-on.
Using his Golden Wheel as a shield, he bet all his power on the Vajra Body Divine Skill, while his feet moved with lightness skills to retreat and be ready to dissipate the force at any moment.
Even before the dragons arrived, the force of their approach made his face shudder uncontrollably, and he looked ghastly.
Boom~
The moment the Blood Dragon struck, King Golden Wheel's vision first went dark as if his head had been struck by a huge hammer. He couldn't concentrate his inner strength, and his stance fell apart.
In the next instant, the Blood Dragon shattered all his inner strength without effort, and his Golden Wheel emitted a piercing 'screech' noise.
Puh~
But at the end of the day, he was a top-tier master with profound inner strength and a robust physical body.
Having the Golden Wheel as a shield, the full protection of his power, and using weight-shifting skills, he was only knocked flying backward, smashing through a tent to the ground where he lay without getting up.
He just barely hung onto his breath.
"Shoot the arrows! Shoot the arrows!"
At this moment, General Bo Yan's orders, along with the soldiers positioned at a safer distance, were finally ready for their counterattack.
The steppe soldiers were best at archery; even top-notch experts could not withstand it for long!
Seeing the rain of arrows coming from all directions, Tao Yu felt the reckless expenditure he had engaged in, and thus raised his hand to recall the Blood Dragons to fill the gaps in his strength.
After most of the dozen or so Blood Dragons returned to the blood mist and were absorbed by Tao Yu,
He snorted coldly, causing the remaining two Blood Dragons to explode in midair, blocking most of the incoming arrows.
To save on expenditure, the rarely-used Black Iron Heavy Sword was drawn from his back, and using its broad blade, he parried the arrows while retreating.
Combining his own Dynamic Vision and the Spiral Nine Shadows, he changed his position a few times, soon putting distance between himself and the archers, stepping out of their range.
Tao Yu's evasion at last brought a pale smile to General Bo Yan's face.
This man, although his martial prowess is godlike and unheard of,
if he has to evade our arrow rain, then there are limits to his strength!
The arrows are effective!
The Dharma King is indeed a martial sage, knowing the most effective methods!
"He cannot possibly have enough inner strength to kill all of us! He won't last long! Shoot the arrows! Shoot the arrows!"
Seeing an opportunity, Bo Yan turned his fear into howling commands, continuously giving orders.
This kind of threat, only by dying can people stop having nightmares!
Otherwise, they would probably wake up terrified in the middle of the night!
"Mount up! Pursue!"
The hysterical voice was met with response.
Fear, when pushed to its extreme, can also squeeze out astonishing power.
Meanwhile, Tao Yu continued to retreat while two AT200s began to emerge from his shadow.
He bitterly denounced with a pained face,
"You don't have martial ethics!"
