Return From The Immortal World
Chapter 1057: The Meat Shredder
In the midst of manipulating the array, Tang Xiu did a killing frenzy against hundreds of vicious beasts of bird species and shouted, “Awu, hand out ten Sacred Healing pills to everyone. All of you take a pill and make sure to restore your combat power within five minutes! ”
“Ya, Sir!” Mo Awu replied and took out many Sacred Healing pills from the interspatial circle. He had plenty of resources in stock as he often followed Tang Xiu. After handing the pills to everyone, he looked towards Tang Xiu and asked in a loud voice, “What are we going to do next, Sect Master?”
“Everything, start recovering. You should leave the array after five minutes towards the outside of the mountain range at your fastest speed! “Jawab Tang Xiu in a deep voice. “DO NOT involve any demonic beast you encounter on the way home. Get to camp as soon as possible. Hao Lei, you stay here. ”
“Understood!” Hao Lei replied respectfully.
His cultivation had just broken through to the Golden Core Stage, making him extremely happy inside. He knew that he would get a huge reward once he survived and left this mountain range because Sect Master Tang Xiu had promised that those who managed to break through the Golden Core Stage would be given plenty of resources.
After he took the Sacred Healing Pill, the overwhelming energy of the medical efficacy began to recover his injuries, while a small portion was absorbed by his Golden Core. The sesame-sized core then multiplied in just a short time and continued to grow in size at a very fast pace.
With this crazy True Essence absorption rate in my body and world energy from the outside, the volume of my Golden Core will increase to the size of the rice immediately. I can feel that I am at least four times stronger than before.
Hao Lei complacently looked up and asked Tang Xiu, “Sekte Master, do you want me to help you?”
“It won't be needed for a while. But I want you to collect the corpses of all the demon beasts in two minutes. Also, remember not to miss the fallen Demon Cores. Awu, give the Invisibility Spell to Hao Lei. I remember you should have some left, “ Tang Xiu replied in a deep voice.
Mo Awu complied and cast the spell to Hao Lei, saying, “Control your aura after you put it on and activate it, so that no human or beast can see you. But don't forget to avoid the demonic beasts. ”
Hao Lei had only heard of the existence of this Invisible Charm before but had never seen it, and thus became a little excited at this moment when he nodded in response.
Mo Awu himself looked at her with a complicated face. He could sense his current cultivation level from the leaking aura.
Breaking through to the Golden Core Stage was something he had dreamed of. He was aware that he was less talented in cultivating and hence did not dare to relax in practice. However, Hao Lei suddenly advanced to the Golden Core Stage and he lost the opportunity to seize the first title for it. Much to his jealousy, Sect Master Tang Xiu now gave him some duties due to his breakthrough — tasks that were previously his duties.
I have to practice and cultivate crazily! I must break through to the Golden Core Stage at the fastest speed. I don't care if I have to pay the price for it. Only after I advance to the Golden Core Stage can I be qualified to become the right hand of the Sect Master again. Clenching his fists, Mo Awu swore inwardly.
While still operating the array, Tang Xiu continued to observe the outside world. Of the thousands of demonic beasts that ran on the ground, dozens of them could rival the demonic beasts on the Golden Core Stage, and they were less than 200 meters away from the ranks right now. But hundreds of bird species demon beasts were now slaughtered within the formation even though they were fighting desperately.
“Hao Lei, we can't wait for two minutes. Go collect the corpse of that demonic beast now! “Shouted Tang Xiu.
In an instant, under Tang Xi's instructions, Hao Lei quickly entered the area where the bird species demon beast was being attacked. Shock was clearly visible on his face when he saw the 100-plus demonic beasts left from the previous several hundred struggling desperately to fend off the various attacks.
“Quick!” Shouted Tang Xiu.
Suppressing the shock and spreading thoughts that surged in his mind, Hao Lei quickly gathered the corpses of the demonic beasts and Demon Cores into an interspatial ring. Since there was no order from Tang Xiu, he did not rush off and just watched the bird-like demonic beasts continue dying while keeping his speed in collecting their corpses.
“Completed!”
Right at the moment when dozens of demonic beasts entered the array, Tang Xiu looked at Hao Lei and shouted.
Hao Lei himself also saw dozens of demonic beasts rushing inside, and none of them had an aura weaker than his. Such a discovery sent a chill down his back and he almost instantly darted into the safe zone.
“Awu, get ready to evacuate the rest in two minutes,” Tang Xiu's orders in a deep tone.
The person glanced at Hao Lei first before nodding. “Understanding!”
Time passed quickly, and around less than 4,000 demonic beasts all entered the array. The biggest ones who acted as their commanders became even more furious and frenetic after facing various attacks from the ranks.
“Focus and center attack!”
Tang Xiu, who was still controlling the array, suddenly shook and blood came out of his seven holes. He could even feel that the inside was burning.
Goddamnit! These demonic beasts really knew how to break through the line violently. To think that they also know attacking one place at the same time. If they continued to attack like this, this array would only last for a few more minutes before they completely broke it.
As he thought about this, Tang Xiu raised his hand to wipe the blood on his face and shouted loudly, “Awu, take everyone and evacuate immediately. There are too many demonic beasts here, and their attack power is beyond my calculations! Hurry up! Hao Lei, go and evacuate with them as well. I'll catch up with you later. ”
Mo Awu and Hao Lei exchanged glances and nodded at the same time, then simultaneously grabbed those comrades who had lost their combat power and were severely injured. They quickly left the line under Tang Xiu's guidance. After finding a safe direction, they all quickly shot towards the mountains.
At the epicenter, Tang Xiu stood up with an extremely cold face. He still did not give up even though thousands of demonic beasts were attacking the ranks at the same time and causing great shock to him. But for every second, some demonic beasts were severely injured after being attacked by the array and many weaker ones were even killed directly.
He survives! Even just half a minute of insisting here would kill and reduce the number of demonic beasts, reducing the threat they would pose to humans in the future.
Time pass. The array now seemed as if it had become a meat grinder. Thousands of demonic beasts screamed, roared, yet still continued to attack. As more creaks and cracks appeared in the array, Tang Xiu's heavier wounds became, until the jade was set as its base finally shattered.
“Gathering!”
As his mind moved, Tang Xiu unleashed his spiritual senses, looting the corpses of his demonic beasts and Devils and quickly gathering them into his interspatial ring. It only took a few seconds for him to harvest hundreds of corpses of ferocious beasts and their Demon Funnels.
Just half a minute left.
Based on his judgment, he would lose control of the array and could only last for half a minute before the remaining demonic beasts destroyed it. He no longer hesitated and ran out of line. Its bursting speed made it look like a distant lightning strike.
20 Seconds later, he appeared several kilometers away. His figure had already escaped into the mountain pass once the array was destroyed. He was as if smoke was on top of the white snow as he stepped on a mountain pass and quickly appeared at the other end of the mountain.
“Awu, send me your coordinates.”
Tang Xiu took out a communicator and quickly sent a message to Mo Awu. Soon after, the latter replied.
After heading to the exact coordinates sent by Mo Awu, he quickly caught up with them and provided assistance to heal the severely injured. Then, he said in a deep tone, “We must race against time to leave the interior of this mountain range. We'll recover later after we're outside. Out of those several thousand demonic beasts, we killed at least 1,000 of them. I'm not sure about the number of them left, but we've done everything we can here, so what happens next depends on fate. But make sure to get ready to act. ”
Dozens of Tang Sect disciples were very clear about the meaning of Tang Xiu's words. However, they were all shocked after hearing the array being able to exterminate nearly 1,000 demonic beasts. The way they saw it, Tang Xiu was now completely different, as they were naturally aware of the power that the array could release. It secretly made them decide to visit the Library Pavilion once they returned to the Island of the Nine Dragons, so that they could take out the array manuals and study them and strive to become an array formation master.
Two hours later, Tang Xiu led dozens of his men and finally came out of the mountains, appearing near the blockade line. They found dozens of demonic beasts on the way back, but they were all personally killed by him.

Ugley city.
Inside the green-olive military tent, Duanmu Lin sat cross-legged in recovery. Just half an hour ago, hundreds of demonic beasts had attacked the western front, forcing him to lead his army in defense. He suffered injuries as a result but chased away those demonic beasts, expending a lot of his energy.
“We got a new situation, Chairman!”
The Special Ability Bureau member responsible for looking at the LCD monitor suddenly turned around and shouted loudly.
Duanmu Lin's eyes immediately opened and looked at him. He ran towards the LCD screen, saw it and asked quickly, “What exactly is the situation?”
Pointing to the surveillance screen, the agent member replied, “The horde of demon beasts was previously only seen in the 42nd surveillance area, Chairman. However, I find it very strange as some of them are injured and their numbers seem to be reduced compared to the previous stats. ”
