Chapter 487: Puppet Martial Artists
Translator: Kazeyuki_ Editor: Jimmy_
As soon as he started killing, all of Qin Wushuang's doubts were washed away . With a heart as calm as water, he watched those elite warriors surging at him from all directions . Standing on the higher ground, he unleashed his spiritual perception fully and started to count their numbers .
"One, two, three…"
In total, there were thirteen people . These thirteen people had appeared from everywhere to stop Qin Wushuang, after he had killed that woodcutter .
Only, Qin Wushuang did not choose to fight them head-on . Instead, he went around their blockade and rushed deep into the Tortoise King Mountain .
Currently, those elite warriors who were blocking the outer areas had clearly realized that the enemy had gone around them and entered the Tortoise King Mountain . Thus, all of them angrily called out to each other to surround the place .
"Stop him, regardless of all consequences, stop him!" A piercing voice emerged from inside the Tortoise King Mountain . The technique of making this voice travel was intelligent . As the voice spoke, it echoed through the surrounding area leaving Qin Wushuang unable to catch the source of the voice .
When those elite warriors outside heard this order, each of them felt their blood surge as they appeared to have become frenzied . All of them swarmed forward like locusts .
With a grave and stern expression, Qin Wushuang fixed his gaze on everything . Inwardly, as his thoughts raced, an idea emerged from his mind .
"Earlier, these people looked like normal martial artists . How come in an instant, they became maddened as if someone had taken control of their minds . Could it be that the person who spoke was the one that planted the venomous insect?"
Qin Wushuang had some knowledge of the venomous insects . He knew that the person who planted the insects could not only use it to poison others, he could also use this poison to manipulate and take control of their minds .
Poisons would usually wreck the body . Yet, to use the venomous insect to manipulate and control one's consciousness was the action of controlling their souls . It was more ruthless than poisoning them .
As soon as a living person fell under the control of those venomous insects, they could only become battle puppets for the host . Initially, Qin Wushuang remembered the strange actions of that woodcutter . At that time, the serene blue lights from that person's palm was apparently a skill that would unleash the venomous insects .
As Qin Wushuang thought of this point, he immediately saw the light . He knew that the person who had been playing tricks at the Tortoise King Mountain must be that person who had spoke .
Thinking there, Qin Wushuang no longer hesitated . With the Graceful Spiritual Bow in his hand,he continuously shot out three arrows . Three rays of green lights slashed across the void and directly killed the three martial artists that were charging at him from the east .
Now, Qin Wushuang's attunement with the Graceful Spiritual Bow was no longer at the Perfect Spiritual Martial Force . With people at the Refined Void Martial Stage, even for those at the Transformation Void Martial Stage, Qin Wushuang had complete confidence in his ability to kill them .
Of course, it was like using a sledgehammer to crack a nut by killing these martial artists at the Refined Void Martial Stage . Without a sound, the three arrows had killed three people . The martial artists rushing at him from the other three directions had no knowledge of it .
Qin Wushuang dashed to the east and along the way, he extended his hand to call back the three jade green arrows . Currently, the four martial artists from the south side had arrived before him .
As they surrounded Qin Wushuang, he was shocked inwardly when he saw their expressions . The four of them had bloodshot eyes and their faces seemed to be covered by a thick layer of powder . Seemingly unusually malevolent, their faces appeared deathly white like those withered corpses walking out from the graveyard .
Qin Wushuang knew that it was the venomous insects urging them and stimulating their combat potential . To such combat puppets manipulated by venomous insects, it was definitely not a wise choice to get involved in an extended battle with them .
Of course, Qin Wushuang would not make such a mistake . Instantly, the wings grew from his back as he flew into the sky . Next, in the air, he stabbed down four times with the Hegemon Breaking Formation Spear and dashed down like a northern goshawk striking at its prey .
Bang! Bang!
After sending out two Profound Mysteries spear attacks, he killed two of them at once . The remaining two moved to attack him from both sides . Qin Wushuang threw himself to the side by pushing himself off the ground .
This fine and delicate footwork of the "Immortal Virtuous Cloud Steps" had, for a time, been a technique that Qin Wushuang had heavily relied upon . It was an incredibly matchless and profound skill .
Those two people seemed to be getting closer to him, yet when Qin Wushuang stretched horizontally with his footwork, these two only hit the empty air . Qin Wushuang withdrew his weapon and used both left and right hands to unleash the "Coagulated Sword" at them, with a scoff .
One only saw his fingers move . The attack the sword qi warping and weaving to attack at those two's weaknesses .
Although these two held weapon in their hands, regarding nimbleness and flexibility, how could they match the "Coagulated Sword?" Despite fighting two against one, they were caught off guard by Qin Wushuang's attack .
Using both hands in collaboration, in the space of a breath, Qin Wushuang had unleashed hundreds of waves of sword Qi that surged forward like a tide . Unable to avoid it, the vital points of those two were hit by Qin Wushuang's a dozen of sword qi at the same time . With the sound flesh being penetrated, both were hit by the sword qi and died on the ground .
Instantly, seven of the thirteen puppet martial artists had been killed by Qin Wushuang . However, three people from the west and his rear continued to approach at a rapid speed .
In a burst of energy, once again Qin Wushuang activated the Graceful Spiritual Bow . Without even aiming at them, he drew the bow and killed three at once .
This time, the remaining three had realized that something had gone wrong . However, their consciousness was being manipulated by the venomous insects . Despite realizing the danger, they still charged forward without fearing death .
Using the same method, Qin Wushuang flew backwards and retrieved the jade green arrows again . As he opened his bow, and shot the arrows again, the appearance of the three green lights took the lives of the remaining three puppet martial artists .
Boom, boom, boom!
Almost at the same time, three loud sounds of explosions emerged . The targets hit by the green lights instantly exploded as blood and gore splattered the area .
Almost instantly, thirteen martial artists at the Refined Void Martial Stage had been cleanly killed by Qin Wushuang . Even he found it astonishing .
As soon as he activated his killer mode, with the tyrannized power of the Graceful Spiritual Bow, plus the assistance of Qin Wushuang's own super combat power, these thirteen martial did not even have the chance to confront him . Before the Graceful Spiritual Bow, even those at the Refined Void Martial Stage had collapsed under the first attack .
With a heart as calm as water, there was not the slightest disturbance inside Qin Wushuang's mind . A wave of familiar murderous intentions spread across his spiritual perception . This intention grew increasingly thick at a violent speed .
Kill!
At this moment, only such ruthless thoughts existed inside Qin Wushuang's head .
Such feeling felt somewhat familiar to Qin Wushuang . Initially when the Great Wu had joined force with the West Chu to attack the Bai Yue Country and when they had killed Qiu Lingde, the Martial Saint of the Bai Yue, Qin Wushuang had once activated this killer mode . In that battle, the Great Wu had lost almost all of their elite warriors .
The West Chu also paid their price for their hand in the events .
Now, Qin Wushuang had activated the killer mode because of that battle from the Wild Flame Cliff . Under the suppression of two Perfect Void Martial Stage, Bao Bao and Lone had fall into the chasm, whether they had lived or died was unknown .
This matter had completely awoken the evil tendencies inside Qin Wushuang's heart completely . The name of Yan Qingyun and Wu Lihu had completely evoked Qin Wushuang's rage .
While facing such an evil man that utilized venomous insects, of course Qin Wushuang would not show any mercy .
These people had harmed innocent villagers . They would not be pitied even if they were to die one hundred times .
With awe-inspiring presence, Qin Wushuang raised his voice: "The person that hides inside the mountain, I already helped clear away all your shrimp soldiers and crab generals . "
The sound of his voice carried a strong lingering effect allowing it to the penetrate the deepest parts of the Tortoise King Mountain .
Inside a cave hidden deep inside the Tortoise King Mountain, a man dressed in complete black, whose face covered by a layer of black cloth and with eyes like an eagle, swore as frustration flashed across his eyes: "Useless scumbags, all useless . Fifteen people could not even take care of one person?"
He looked around at this cave that could not even make him feel at peace in his sleep . As he watched pieces of sealed treasures, he gritted his teeth with extreme hatred .
He was feeling aggrieved about it, genuinely aggrieved about it all .
When he thought here, a trace of determination flashed across this person's face . He grabbed a black staff into his hand and mumbled to himself: "I will make my plans after I kill this guy! This cave is mine; all its treasures are mine . No one can take it away, whoever dares to take it away must die!"
The tone of this man in black was bordering on madness . If someone could see him now, for sure they would think this person was a lunatic .
Although he had such thoughts, he stopped after taking a few steps . He could not help but feel somewhat hesitant: "This person had killed all of my puppets with such ease . At least, he must be an elite warrior at the Profound Void Martial Stage . It would not do anything if I just go out recklessly . "
When he thought here, he hesitated as he remained in place .
"This Tortoise King Mountain has a good name, could it be that you are going to be an ostrich and hide your head inside the mountain forever?"
Each of the taunting words from outside sounded indifferent to the ear of the man in black . He did not care about his reputation and the taunts of the enemy .
However, he cared about ensuring this mountain cave never being exposed to other people . He had created all those puppets, manipulated all those thugs, caused many acts of terror and to the extent, he had poisoned the surrounding villages and turned it all into places of death .
What he did was only a starting point, as he must make sure this Tortoise King Mountain becomes his private property . He must turn it into a place that caused people fear at the thought of it, and would never approach this place .
The more cold dreadful, and bleak the Tortoise King Mountain became, the more beneficial it would be for him to carry out his plans .
However, it was fated that it would not become his territory . Even if he tried every means to make it his, it was impossible .
On the outside, Qin Wushuang laughed coldly again: "Since you are not coming out, do you think that I cannot find you?"
Inwardly, that man in black was shocked: "If he is truly at the Profound Void Martial Stage, or some stronger elite warrior passing by, it's entirely possible for him to find the cave deep inside this mountain!"
"If the other party used their spiritual perception at full power to search, even if he could not find it in a day or two, he would certainly find some clue in ten days or half a month…" The thoughts of this man in black was frantic .
If the other party found this cave, it meant that they would fight hand-to-hand in melee combat . The man in black felt unwilling . In this cave, a lot of great treasures were sealed here .
Apparently, this was a treasure hoard . A treasury hidden inside the hinterlands of the mountain . He had studied for many years and could not find the method to break these seals . Thus, he could only stare at these treasure in longing .
One could imagine the pain of only being able to look at the treasures, and yet, not be able to take it .
"Even if I can't take it, I must never let others take it! To steal these treasures from me, unless they step over my body, it would be their death!"
After a moment of hesitation, he was determined in his decision . He decided to not go anywhere . He would nurture his strength and bide his time in this place . He would wait for the other party to come here, and launch a sneak attack!
At least, he was extremely familiar with this wriggly and complicated mountain tunnels, that he would hold an incredible advantage in this terrain! To nurture his strength and bide his time would give him a significant opportunity!
