Chapter 135 Is this the Bull Demon King?
The one-horned bull led the charge, leaving a trail of destruction in its wake. The group pursued relentlessly, their momentum overwhelming. Soon, they reached the bull's main camp.
It seems that as long as the method is right, wild beasts are not so great. Didn't they get utterly defeated? Having tasted the sweetness of victory, everyone was full of fighting spirit, like invincible generals, determined to carry the victory to the end.
However, their good fortune was short-lived. Just as everyone was sharpening their knives, ready to crush the herd in one fell swoop, they suddenly heard two loud bellows coming from the herd in front of them.
The two cow bellows sounded very different; one was high-pitched and passionate, soaring into the sky, as if it would shake everyone's eardrums open.
Everyone was startled and stopped in their tracks, staring at the herd of cattle with suspicion. The cattle that had been chased earlier also stopped and turned to face the group.
Amidst the astonished gazes of the crowd, the herd slowly parted, and two exceptionally tall, one-horned bulls strode out with their heads held high.
These two one-horned bulls, one blue and one white, were exceptionally handsome. From head to tail, they were 32 feet long, and from hoof to back, they were 18 feet long, more than twice the size of ordinary bulls.
Is this... the Bull Demon King in disguise? Xiao Chong gasped, his mouth agape, his eyes widening even more than a bull's.
The crowd looked even worse; their legs trembled, and they stood frozen in place, some even shaking and their teeth chattering.
"What are you waiting for? Run!" Xiao Chong shouted and turned to run.
Hearing the shouts, everyone snapped out of their daze and turned to run towards the city wall.
However, it was too late. With a soft roar, the two giant bulls sent a swarm of cattle rushing forward, surrounding the group.
Since there's no escape, let's fight! To catch the thief, catch the king first! The crowd unleashed their clubs and hammers at the two giant bulls.
Unfortunately, while the tactic was correct, it was too difficult to execute.
The one-horned bull is already thick-skinned and tough, so ordinary attacks wouldn't cause much damage to it, let alone these two giant bulls in front of it.
With axes and halberds aimed at it, the giant bull didn't even lift its eyelids. The blue bull merely swayed its horns slightly and lowered its head to strike a steel shield.
Keng!
A piercing metallic clang rang out as the bull's horns clashed with the steel shield, sending sparks flying. Then, the blue bull raised one of its front hooves and slammed it onto the shield.
The hard spikes on the shield snapped like noodles. The steel shield couldn't withstand the pressure and was crushed half a foot deep into the ground. The person holding the shield was caught off guard and was crushed by the steel shield, breaking his bones and tendons. It was clear that he would not survive.
In this life-or-death moment, someone remembered the vulnerable spot behind the ear of the one-horned bull, and with a shout, leaped up and smashed the ear of another white bull with a hammer.
As if he hadn't seen it, the white ox waited until the hammer was about to strike before suddenly twitching its ears and sending the hammer flying into the crowd.
These people's cultivation levels were still too low; they couldn't even scratch those two giant bulls. Seeing that everyone's attacks had no effect whatsoever, Xiao Chong gritted his teeth and had no choice but to bite the bullet and personally take to the field.
This time, Xiao Chong snatched a battle axe with a handle ten feet long, so he didn't need to jump like the previous man to reach the bull's head.
flutter!
The battle axe struck the blue ox squarely in the face, like an iron rod hitting tattered leather, producing a dull thud before bouncing high into the air. Only a white mark remained on the ox's head, while Xiao Chong's arms felt slightly numb from the impact.
Hmm, so hard? Let's try again! Xiao Chong was not discouraged and swung his axe again.
This axe strike mobilized the accumulated Yuan energy within the body, making it several times more powerful than the previous strike.
Hearing the whooshing sound of the battle axe churning the air, the blue ox dared not be negligent and turned its horn to block the battle axe.
Click!
After a soft sound, Xiao Chong felt a lightness in his hand. The axe handle had broken in two, and the axe head had flown away. Only half of the broken handle remained in his hand.
At this point, the other one-horned bulls joined the battle, and a chaotic melee ensued. Bulls were constantly being beaten into a daze, and people were constantly dying from the bulls' charges. The battle was extremely fierce.
Xiao Chong couldn't afford to pay attention to the ordinary one-horned bulls; he could only muster his strength to contend with the two giant bulls. The giant bulls seemed to know that Xiao Chong was the leader of this group, so both the blue and white bulls focused their attacks on him alone.
At this point, weapons were no longer needed. Ordinary weapons were of no use against the giant bull; they were less powerful than Xiao Chong's fist.
boom!boom!boom……
His fists rained down on the two giant bulls, which only groaned softly as if they were not in much pain, but Xiao Chong's internal energy was rapidly draining away.
In the short time it takes to burn half an incense stick, Xiao Chong already felt his limbs weaken, and the power of his punches diminished with each strike. At this moment, the surroundings also began to quiet down. Looking around, he found that everyone was either dead or scattered, and there wasn't a single ghost in sight.
Many of the unicorn bulls that fought against the group were killed or wounded, and the rest gathered around Xiao Chong and the giant bull in a circle.
"Oh no!" Xiao Chong cried out inwardly, ready to fight his way out.
Just then, a sharp whistle came from the direction of the city wall, and a figure rushed to Xiao Chong's side in a flash.
"Brother Xiao, hurry and rush out with me!" The figure was none other than Hengshan.
"Savior!" Xiao Chong was overjoyed and was about to break through with Hengshan when he felt his legs go weak and he had no strength at all.
"Brother Heng, please protect me while I replenish my Yuan energy!" In shock, Xiao Chong shouted and took out two Yuan stones to absorb them on the spot.
Seeing this, Hengshan became anxious and unleashed a flurry of punches and kicks, sending the two giant bulls flying several steps. He then tossed Xiao Chong a Yuan Power Card, saying, "What time is it? How can we absorb the power of Yuan Stones in time? Use this."
Xiao Chong then remembered that the Yuanli Card had this wonderful use. He immediately reached out and grabbed the Yuanli Card, placing his palm on the card to begin absorbing its power.
"They really are rich; they casually throw out a thousand points of Yuan Power." Xiao Chong absorbed the energy while still having the leisure to look at the numbers on the card.
The Yuanli Card was indeed incredibly effective, instantly restoring Xiao Chong to full health. However, when he was about to stop absorbing it, something went wrong.
"Brother Heng, why can't you stop?"
As the numbers on the Yuanli Card continued to decrease, while the Yuanli stored in the card kept pouring into his body, Xiao Chong was terrified.
He felt like an inflatable doll, about to burst at any moment.
How come this guy doesn't know anything? Has he never used a Yuanli Card before and doesn't know that he needs to set an absorption number before using it?
"Brother, you're on your own now." Seeing the numbers on the Yuanli Card jumping around rapidly, Yokoyama was terrified, breaking out in a cold sweat and turning pale green, but he was completely helpless.
"Huh?" Xiao Chong was shocked. Just as he was about to ask again, the numbers on the card flashed and finally returned to zero.
"what!"
As the last surge of Yuan energy entered his body, Xiao Chong let out a strange cry, and a series of loud popping sounds, like popping beans, emanated from his body.
