Chapter 212 The Truth
Chapter 212 The Truth
The book "The Revelation of the Way of Heaven" is full of classic quotes, so come and find resonance.
"You're given one last chance to choose: death or surrender?"
"Don't you think you're dreaming?" Mo Yu sneered. "How could I possibly be on the same side as you?"
"Then die!" Si Haolong lowered his eyes, his right hand preparing to clench his fist to control the tentacles to crush Mo Yu's throat, when a huge force suddenly attacked him, making him wary and forcing him to retreat to defend.
An earthen-yellow rock shield appeared before him at his command. Only then did Si Haolong realize that what had attacked him was a swirling cluster of petals. However, the spiritual power contained within those petals forced him to take it seriously.
Cheng Xiaoman approached Mo Yu, and with a wave of her hand, the flower petals shattered the stone locks binding Mo Yu. She helped Mo Yu up from the ground and asked, "Are you alright?"
Mo Yu wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth with the back of his hand and shook his head.
Just as the two were talking, Han Kexin and the other two arrived.
Looking at the group of people rushing towards him, Si Haolong frowned.
"Who is this person?" Guo Shiyi asked. Although she was already a member of the Demon Hunters, she had always carried out missions below Rank C, so she didn't know many of the other Demon Hunters.
"Him? He's a celebrity among you demon hunters, and your superior, the renowned leader of the Southeast Action Group—Si Haolong," Han Kexin said with a sneer. "He's also one of the masterminds behind the attack on you and Xiao Chuan."
"It's him!" Guo Shiyi was clearly surprised. "It's said that his spiritual power has reached level 8, and he's even known as the 'God of War' among demon hunters."
"Oh, so you're one of the two people who ruined my family's plans. Very well, saves me the trouble of going after you again." Si Haolong sized up Guo Shiyi and said with a disdainful look.
"As for you," he said, fixing his gaze on Han Kexin, "I think you're probably in cahoots with them."
"You don't need to know who I am, because a dead man doesn't need to know so much." Han Kexin said, raising her air cannon and aiming it at Si Haolong.
"Hmph!" Si Haolong sneered, "You can say such presumptuous things just because you have more people?" After saying that, he snapped his fingers, and the mechas that had retreated to the side slowly surrounded him again.
"No, that's not it," Han Kexin said coldly, completely disregarding the mecha warriors. "It's just because you deserve to die." With that, she pulled the trigger.
Si Haolong reached out and grabbed her air cannonball. A loud explosion rang out in his palm, but Si Haolong acted as if nothing had happened, as if what had just exploded in his hand was just a balloon.
"Unfortunately, your abilities are not enough," Si Haolong mocked. With a wave of his hand, the mechs and mech beasts rushed towards Han Kexin and the others, with one mech cheetah leading the charge.
A red sword shadow suddenly descended from the sky, cleaving the cheetah in two, with one of the red sword shadows stuck upright in the ground.
Zhou Bin quickly formed a hand seal, and a red light immediately spread out from the sword shadow, expanding continuously until it almost covered most of the underground space. The red light acted like an invisible barrier, separating the robots and mechanical beasts.
No matter how hard the mechs outside the red light tried to break through, they couldn't cross the line. There weren't many mechs and mechs inside the red light, and they were quickly eliminated by Han Kexin and Guo Shiyi.
"A barrier." Si Haolong looked at Zhou Bin with some surprise. At this moment, the latter was already sitting cross-legged on the ground, focusing all his mind and body on maintaining the red sword shadow.
"Alright, that way I can go all out." Si Haolong cracked his neck, then let out a deep shout. Instantly, a layer of earth-colored rock armor appeared on his body. He was already quite muscular, but now he was even taller, looking like a solid castle that no external force could break through.
"Let me see just how capable you really are," Si Haolong said provocatively. As soon as he finished speaking, a huge stone cone suddenly appeared under everyone's feet, forcing them to scatter in all directions to avoid it.
"First, it's you." Si Haolong suddenly appeared in front of Cheng Xiaoman and punched her. White petals quickly gathered in front of Cheng Xiaoman, trying to block the attack, but she was still punched to the ground.
Just then, Han Kexin's wind blades slashed towards Si Haolong from behind, but the other party didn't even turn his head. A cluster of stone cones automatically arched up on his back. The wind blades cut the stone cones in half, but they couldn't harm the other party in the slightest.
"Earth Spike Shooting!" Si Haolong roared, and countless earth spikes rained down from the sky like raindrops.
"Sacred Tree." Guo Shiyi quickly formed several hand seals, and a large tree grew from the ground. When it was about the height of two people, it began to grow a canopy in all directions. The lush canopy blocked the falling soil cones from the air.
"You're next." Si Haolong used the same trick again, flashing in front of Guo Shiyi once more, raising his fist, which was now covered in stone spikes, and slamming it towards Guo Shiyi.
"Air Shock Cannon." At the critical moment, Han Kexin pulled Guo Shiyi behind her and fired an air cannon at Si Haolong's abdomen.
"Boom!" The massive explosion at close range shattered the rock armor on Si Haolong's body, but it still failed to injure him.
"Earthquake - Rockburst." Si Haolong quickly formed several hand seals, and a powerful shockwave swept over everyone. Towering trees were snapped in half, and all four combatants were hit hard by the huge impact, falling heavily to the ground. Mo Yu, who was already injured, coughed up another mouthful of blood.
Only Zhou Bin, who was sitting on the ground, was unaffected when the shockwave swept over him; a red light rose from his body, dissipating the shockwave's power.
"Hell Swamp." Si Haolong released another skill, and a swamp suddenly appeared beneath them. Under the influence of gravity, the group began to slowly sink into the swamp. However, due to the underground environment, the skill's effect was greatly reduced, but it was enough to significantly affect their speed.
"Is this all you've got?" Si Haolong stood horizontally, exuding an imposing aura. Surging spiritual energy gathered around him, gradually forming stone cones that floated in the air.
"Is this the difference between level 7 and level 8 spiritual power?" Cheng Xiaoman looked at the man in front of her in disbelief. Four level 7 spiritual power users working together were still beaten without any power to fight back.
