Chapter 95: The Might of a Grandmaster (Part Two)
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Explosions that rumbled like thunder kept coming from Lan City. Even in the daytime, one could see the bright flames stroking the sky.
At night, it was as if the sky had been struck by lightning. Bolts of blue struck from every corner, making one’s scalp go numb and one’s heart tremble!
On the roof of a tall building, Chu Lingjun, Ding Peng, Chen Zhiqi, and the others were overlooking the surrounding streets.
“I guess Lan City is the main battlefield!”
Chu Lingjun said slowly as he looked at the huge fireball rising in the direction of Lan City.
“Seems so, we were just a decoy.” Ding Peng replied.
“The Sandbirds that fell from the sky on the first day almost gave me a heart attack. I thought we were going to die!” Chen Zhiqi recalled the first day of the battle and said with lingering fear.
“I thought so too.” Ding Peng’s shoulders shrunk when he heard that. “They wanted to take down Quicksand Town.”
Over the past three days, the number of Sandbirds appearing has decreased.
Chu Lingjun witnessed with his own eyes that a large wave of Sandbirds flew directly above Quicksand Town and headed straight for Lan City. “Based on the battle formation, the Grandmaster should have appeared!”
“I think so too.”
Rank Seven martial artists were called Grandmasters!
Grandmasters had a life force that far surpassed that of mortals. Every cell in their body was filled with a huge life force. They had a long lifespan and could live for hundreds of years without a problem.
A Grandmaster’s body had an extremely powerful regenerative ability. Not only could they reattach severed limbs, but they could also regrow severed limbs!
Grandmasters even relied on true qi to fly!
It was said that when a Rank Seven Grandmaster cultivated to a higher realm, his head could regenerate even if it was chopped off.
Grandmasters had a revered status among the human race.
In places like Lan City and Baiyue Province, Grandmasters were also placed as city guards. As long as they were around, it would be extremely difficult to destroy the city they were defending!
At the cultivation level of a Grandmaster, it was ineffective being bombarded by missiles.
“I want to become a Grandmaster in the future!” Thinking of this, Ding Peng could not help but puff out his chest in excitement.
Hearing his words, Chen Zhiqi could not help but burst out laughing.
“Ding Peng, oh Ding Peng, you haven’t even reached Rank Three yet, and you’re already thinking of becoming a Grandmaster? Lower your dreams!” Ding Peng’s face flushed red. “Hmph, what about it? Can’t I have a dream?”
“Yes, me too!”
Chu Lingjun smiled along and agreed even though he knew how difficult it was to become a Rank Seven Grandmaster!
On average, only one out of ten million people would become a Grandmaster. The probability of one in ten million was too low!
“Hmm?”
At this moment, Chu Lingjun, who had been secretly observing Wu Zheng with his Electric Field, discovered something.
He remained unmoved and said to Ding Peng and Chen Zhiqi, “I suddenly have a stomach ache. Goodbye!”
Chu Lingjun quickly disappeared from their sight.
Wu Zheng and a group of companions were patrolling the streets.
Because of the crazy destruction of the divine blood warriors and the Sandbirds on the first day, the city was full of destroyed and half-collapsed buildings. When everyone saw many landmark buildings turned into ruins, their hearts ached even more!
“One day, I will definitely destroy them all! ” Wu Zheng gritted his teeth and said with an extremely firm gaze.
His right hand tightened, and the knife hanging diagonally on his waist made a sizzling sound.
A companion beside Wu Zheng shook his head and said solemnly, “It’s been more than a hundred years, we humans have barely managed to gain a foothold on land. It’s impossible to defeat all the mutated beasts. Even if we can defeat the exotic beasts on land, there are still more exotic beasts in the sea that are stronger and more freakishly terrifying waiting to kill us!”
Wu Zheng said with a determined expression, “If we can’t do it in twenty years, then we’ll take fifty years, or another hundred years. One day, we’ll be able to kill all these mutated beasts and claim our victory!”
His companions were silent.
“What was that?”
At this moment, a figure suddenly flashed across the ruins!
Wu Zheng and the others were startled and shouted out to draw their guard!
All the ordinary people in the city had entered the underground bomb shelter. Other than the soldiers and students of the city guards, only the divine blood warriors were left!
Wu Zheng and the others subconsciously looked at each other, then quickly chased after the shadow with tacit understanding!
After turning into a small path of ruins, the few of them saw a figure in a sorry state running in panic.
Judging from his cultivation, this person was an Early Stage Rank Two martial artist!
“Stop!”
A few of them shouted, but this person ran even faster.
Wu Zheng and the others quickly caught up. After trailing the shadow and circling a few streets, a sudden change occurred!
Right when Wu Zheng passed by an ordinary building, the wall beside him started to shatter. With that, a tall figure rushed out like a bulldozer!
Wu Zheng was caught off guard. An unstoppable force directly knocked him into the wall behind him. Smoke and dust scattered, and a circle of spiderweb patterns exploded!
Wu Zheng tried to resist, but a giant hand pierced through the smoke, grabbed his neck, and pinned him against the wall!
