The thick fog quickly dissipated, revealing a clear view in the valley. The sun hung high in the sky, and everyone was stunned by the scene before them—it was truly horrific.
Five wolf-like giant beasts covered in white fur lay hidden in the grass, their pairs of emerald green eyes staring at the crowd. This was the true form of the Mist Wraith. On the ground before the Mist Wraith, blood was splattered everywhere, and the bodies of two guards lay torn apart, their innards quickly hollowed out.
"General, this..." one guard said, his voice trembling as he glanced to the side.
General Yuwen furrowed his brow and shouted angrily, "Form up! Prepare to face the enemy!"
Eight guards drew their blades and formed a tight formation facing the Mist Wraith. They displayed a soldier's discipline, never rushing in recklessly to show individual bravery.
Suddenly, one of the Mist Wraiths opened its massive jaws, and a blood-red light rapidly coalesced within. In the next moment, that light shot out like an arrow, forming a blood-red projectile!
"Bang!"
One guard was knocked back, his iron shield dented deeply from the impact. He spat out blood but fortunately was not in life-threatening danger.
General Yuwen brandished his broad sword and charged forward with a loud roar. A faint blue light enveloped him, and frost emanated from his long sword—he was indeed a master who practiced ice-based techniques!
"Shatter Ice!"
With a loud crash, he swung his sword, unleashing a wave of icy sword energy that struck one of the Mist Wraiths directly. After a piercing howl, that Mist Wraith tumbled into the grass.
Instantly, several guards cheered loudly, "Good! The General is truly invincible!"
However, in the next moment, the injured Mist Wraith suddenly sprang up from the grass. Its claws slashed through the air and heavily struck General Yuwen's shoulder. Another Mist Wraith launched an attack from the flank, its claws slicing through Yuwen's armor and leaving a gruesome wound!
"Ah..."
Accompanied by a muffled groan, General Yuwen, a powerful figure with Earth Level Seven strength, was unable to withstand even a single round. His shoulder continued to be torn apart, and his waist was heavily injured, nearly damaging his internal organs.
The wounded Mist Wraith went into a frenzy, opening its massive mouth as a blood-red energy arrow formed once again, aimed directly at General Yuwen, seemingly about to pierce through this Middle-Aged Man.
"Protect the General! Protect the General!"
A group of guards stood together, weapons in hand, each face showing signs of fear.
At that moment, Dragon's Roar echoed through the air as a young man charged in like thunder. It was none other than the barehanded Zhang Tianhe, his entire body radiating a dark blue True Qi. He looked at the Mist Wraith with an imposing demeanor, exuding the aura of a master.
"This kid..." A hint of astonishment flashed in General Yuwen's eyes.
The guards exchanged glances; judging by the gleam of True Qi, this young man was undoubtedly a master of the legendary Earth Level Eight. Yet he didn't even have the eight-star certification mark—how low-key could he be?
The Mist Wraith howled and suddenly shot out an energy arrow!
"Swish!"
The sharp arrow pierced through the air with an intimidating force that could not be underestimated!
Zhang Tianhe swung his arm, his wrist wrapped in Beast King Armor, resembling a fist. He struck out towards the energy arrow, and with a loud "bang," the energy arrow condensed by the Mist Wraith was shattered by his punch!
Zhang Tianhe roared, his figure shooting forward like lightning. He grabbed the front hooves of the Mist Wraith with one hand and the back hooves with the other. With a sudden shout, he tore the Seven-Tiered Beast apart, its insides spilling onto the ground, blood spraying like rain. However, not a drop touched Zhang Tianhe's body; instead, it formed an astonishingly tough layer of protective energy around him that the Mist Wraiths could not break through.
"Come on!"
In an instant, Zhang Tianhe's aura soared as he charged at another Mist Wraith, his fists enveloped in fierce energy, swirling with a cyclone as he unleashed three rapid punches!
Xingtian's Three Wrath!
Symbolizing the Ancient God Xingtian, these three strikes, under Zhang Tianhe's execution, resembled a divine presence descending from the heavens. Each punch landed squarely on the forehead of the Mist Wraith!
"Smack! Smack! Crack!"
The final punch was incredibly powerful; infused with True Qi, his iron fist shattered the Mist Wraith's skull. Accompanied by the beast's roar, red and white splattered everywhere, creating a gruesome scene.
General Yuwen and his subordinates watched in shock, unable to believe that this seemingly gluttonous youth possessed such overwhelming explosive power. His strength had likely surpassed everyone else's.
"Everyone be careful; there are still three Mist Wraiths left! Protect the Princess!" General Yuwen shouted loudly.
As soon as he finished speaking, one Mist Wraith suddenly lunged at Zhang Tianhe, its massive jaws wide open as it gathered energy to unleash an energy arrow that whistled through the air, heading straight for Zhang Tianhe's neck.
"Hey?"
Zhang Tianhe stepped back and swung his fist to disperse the energy arrow before leaping toward the Mist Wraith.
At that moment, two other Mist Wraiths transformed into Phantoms and swiftly bypassed the crowd, charging towards the carriage where Princess Yan Yao was located!
General Yuwen was alarmed and shouted hoarsely, "Be careful, protect the princess!"
"Roar!"
Accompanied by the furious roar of the Mist Wraiths, two guards fell to the ground, deep claw marks appearing on their necks. Blood gushed forth, and they were almost unrecognizable in their mangled state, dying in an instant.
Yan Yao lifted the curtain and saw the two Mist Wraiths pouncing towards her. Her delicate face turned pale with fear. "Ah, what terrifying beasts..."
"Clang!"
Ye Yang drew his Sharp Sword and stood resolutely in front of Yan Yao.
Unbeknownst to her, Yan Yao felt an inexplicable sense of safety. She thought that this young man named Ye Yang stood there like a mountain, shielding her from all storms, making her believe that nothing could harm her anymore!
"Hong!"
The Mist Wraith leaped high into the air, seemingly sensing the threat posed by the young man in front of it. Ling Kong gathered energy arrows and shot down two blood-red arrows.
"Hey..."
Ye Yang's lips curled into a smile as the Breaking Flame Sword buzzed with energy. He instantly infused it with a large amount of pure Fire God True Qi, causing flames to nearly turn the sword red. In the next moment, a gust of wind arose. With two precise clangs, Ye Yang accurately deflected the two energy arrows with his Blade, showcasing an astonishing level of precision!
"Die!"
As the figure darted forward, Ye Yang brushed past two beasts, the Breaking Flame Sword flashing with lightning speed as he struck twice.
"Slash, slash..."
Blood splattered as the two Mist Wraiths fell to the ground, cleaved in half, their innards spilling everywhere!
At the same time, Zhang Tianhe approached, holding the head of the fifth Mist Wraith and laughing heartily, "Zi Yu, this Seven-Tiered Beast is surprisingly weak, it's truly unbelievable, hahaha~~"
Ye Yang smiled lightly and looked up at the sky. The fireball derived from the Fire God Fragment True Qi was burning fiercely, consuming a tremendous amount of energy and was about to disappear.
In fact, it wasn't that the Mist Wraiths were weak; rather, their special ability had been countered. Otherwise, with their keen sensitivity in the fog, even experts like Ye Yang and Zhang Tianhe would have to expend considerable effort to kill a Mist Wraith!
...
General Yuwen stepped forward. After confirming Princess Yan Yao was unharmed, he strode over to Ye Yang and Zhang Tianhe. Suddenly, he knelt on one knee and said solemnly, "On behalf of General Yuwen Shang of Yan Kingdom, I thank you both for your rescue. If you ever need anything in the future, Yuwen Shang will repay you with my life!"
