Chapter 123: Symbol 1
Chapter 123: Symbol 1
All the cultivators gathered by the Cougar clan are looking at the scene. They looked at the Sam’s bloody palm which is holding the heart as it went through the young master’s body.
Then they looked at Sam’s face. His face was cold, without a single emotion, they didn’t even see anger. He didn’t even have nervousness of facing three hundred of them, he didn’t show any crazed excitement of facing this challenge.
In both cases, they can accept it. Because, they saw both kinds of people. But now, they are seeing the third kind. The unfazed.
Sam definitely didn’t have the highest cultivation; he didn’t have many people beside him. He is standing alone, in front of all these people he is looking as if he wasn’t even considering them as a threat.
Suddenly, they felt nervous. There is a voice in the corner of their minds, to get away from this place as soon as possible.
But when they looked at their teammates, they changed their minds immediately. They have strength in numbers and more than ten people have cultivations equal to or higher than Sam.
While they are saying to themselves that they can win, that seed of fear and that voice are still alarming them.
That is the subconscious of the humans. No matter, how much you deceive yourself, your subconscious knows whether you should be afraid of something.
Just like how, a person who never seen a tiger will be afraid as soon as he saw one. The instinct can never be deceived. One will be afraid when they see a real threat and a threat is standing in front of them.
Sam slowly retracted his hand and dropped the heart on the ground. The dead body of the young master also dropped down.
All the members are hesitating to make a move first. But before they could react, they could see something changing around them.
The air around them seemed to raise in temperature. They started to sweat profusely. When they looked at Sam, they understood what is causing this.
Sam’s body is glowing in golden light, the air around him, started to whistle and the temperature is raising continuously.
Soon, all the grass around Sam started wilting due to heat. Vapours started to emit from the plants.
Sam is using the fire and wind elements together. When facing a large number of opponents, one has to place themselves in the most convenient and comfortable environment possible and these high speed and high temperature winds might not make all of them disabled but they will find it hard to concentrate.
Before they could adjust to the new temperature. Sam made the first move which no one anticipated.
He took out his golden staff and swung it hard at the person who is standing in fore front.
Even though, the other party reacted late, he still managed to block the attack. But he didn’t feel glad at all.
Because, the tail wind following the staff’s movement was so sharp that it pierced through his chest and left a deep gash.
At this movement another person was attacking Sam from behind. But he didn’t turn around, instead he still swung his staff at his current opponent and this time, he poked the staff straight into the gash and nailed the staff deep into the person.
Now, he swung the staff carrying the person and slammed him into the attacker coming from behind.
He didn’t stop. He took out the staff and immediately threw it like a javelin towards a person in back. It actually, penetrated into that person’ mouth as he was chanting and busy making hand signs.
Everyone was shocked. But they are the only ones who are in daze.
Sam caught the nearest attacker and immediately broke his hand. The bone pierced and came out of the skin.
His claws came into work as he tore open the flesh along the bone and pulled it out.
“Ahhhhhhhhhh…”
The opponent screamed. But before he could even finish his painful scream, he jabbed the bone directly into the throat making him die.
He pulled back the bone and then pierced it into another person neck from the side.
Before he could turn back, Sam was hit with a earthen rock and followed by a fire ball.
Sam took a step back and looked at small gashes formed on his torso.
He looked at the mages who are short on numbers but are still hiding at the back of the group.
Immediately, Sam took out the normal staff he used to have before forging the golden staff.
He didn’t attack, but started spinning the staff on top of his head as he released the wind energy along with the fire energy, but the fire energy is only used to raise the temperature.
The wind started circling around him as it created a massive tornado. The group saw his weird actions without doing anything and within two seconds they knew it was a mistake to do so.
The whole battle field soon became a place covered with tornado. When they finally tried to make a move, they were being repelled by the wind currents.
Even the spells they are throwing at them, are being repelled.
But before they could try any big moves.
“Tornado style, Harvest.” Sam slowly muttered. Then before the disbelieving eyes of all those who are present, the wind current nature completely changed and became sharp.
As if targeting the specific people, all the mages in the back became head less. More than forty lives just went away like that. All their heads fell down as blood spurted out.
Sam didn’t stop and with the increasing momentum, he turned towards the nearest opponent and slammed the staff on his head.
The head split into two as if it was curt by a sword, but that is not the end of it. All the wind momentum was shot out in a horizontal line, completely ravaging the ground. All the grass blew away and all the people standing that line were slammed to the ground as the sharp winds, riddled their bodies making the blood spurting from the wounds.
When all of it was settled down, Sam is standing with a broken staff in his hands, while panting.
This massive attack, even though made a lot of damage, also took some amount of energy away from him.
But the opponents thought he might have been exhausted, so they tightened their grips on their weapons. After all, there are not many mages left. Only one or two scattered in between.
Contrary to their thoughts, Sam wasn’t that exhausted, he can use the surrounding spiritual energy to his liking, so he didn’t use up all of his energy.
He threw away the piece of staff into a person’s eye and leapt into the group.
With every kick, he made a person disabled. With every swing, his claws started tearing away the flesh.
A sabre wielder was about to sneak up on him and leapt towards him from back. But just as he was about to land, a sharp bone was placed in front of his right eye and pierced right through it.
Sam threw the guy away.
There are occasional gashes on him from the swords and sabres as it is inevitable to get hurt. But he didn’t care at all.
For every second Sam is killing a person, and the next second, he is taking two lives, and that next second, he is taking three lives. He is like a killing machine.
Sam just broke a person’s leg and tore the flesh away with the claws. Just as he picked the bone and pierced the person’s heart
*Roar*
A large beast suddenly sprang out from behind the estate. It is a cougar, more precisely, Silver claw Cougar.
“The guardian beast is here.”
“We are saved.”
“we have hope now.”
All the people who are now a little over half of their original number, are suddenly having hope.
This is the only time, they spoke since the beginning, Sam didn’t even give them a chance to spew their usual threats, he directly leapt into the group reaping lives as if he was drinking water.
When they saw the beast, they heaved a sigh in relief. But Sam seemed to be unperturbed.
“Yanwu.” He only said a word and only at this time did they remember that there are three more beasts in the scene.
Yanwu, Sky and Ape moved immediately. Their opponent is at Level 4. But the three of them are at late stage Level 3.
But their blood lines are not making them afraid. Heck, they might even fight the beast one on one and now there are three.
The opponents’ nightmare started again. Sam started his harvest again.
He is like a happy farmer with high enthusiasm harvesting his yield.
Even the disparity between levels didn’t matter to him anymore.
Yanwu, Sky and Ape didn’t plan to waste their time on the beast. They communicated to each other and the ape immediately jumped at the cougar and tackled it. Ape opened the mouth of the cougar.
At this moment, Yanwu and Sky started circling in the air in an incredible sound.
A large flaming tornado started forming and when the Cougar was in dead lock with the ape with its mouth wide open, the two legendary bird directed all the tornado and shot towards the beast.
When the two birds were about to land, the ape stopped its wrestling and jumped back immediately. The flaming wind currents slammed into the beast.
The scene immediately stopped the clan members in their tracks. There is a smell of cooked game meat in the air. That’s right the attack almost roasted the cougar alive. Then the group of the beasts went back to their original places watching Sam’s teammates.
Sam is going on a killing spree. Every claw of his took a life away.
Within an hour, the number of three hundred reduced to thirty. Sam is standing as he looked at the last thirty people with cold expression. He is panting and was clearly out of breath.
There are more than forty slashes, but none of them are deep at all.
He didn’t even bother to heal himself as he stepped towards the remaining prey.
Blood was dripping from his claws. They could even hear the drops hitting the ground.
“Clan head. Please come and save us.”
“Clan head.”
“Save us.”
“Save us.”
They started calling for the clan leader, but no reply came.
When they thought of pleading Sam and looked at the corpses he left, they immediately swallowed back the idea of doing this.
Some of them immediately gritted their teeth and tried to run away, Sam didn’t even bother to follow them and took out the golden crescent.
As he shot down one of the guys, Yanwu and others went to get the remaining.
The final ten knelt down and were already sobbing.
One of them didn’t even have any hope and immediately committed suicide. As one of them did so, the remaining didn’t know what to do and followed the first person’s footsteps.
Sam looked at the corpses and took a step forward. Just as he was about to enter the mansion, a middle-aged man came outside.
He is none other than the servant who abducted Jasmine.
When he looked at the sea of corpses, he said with disdain.
“Pieces of trash.”
Immediately he pulled out a long sword and made his move.
