Chapter 76: Mutated Giant Beasts
There was more than one route up the mountain, and over twenty special forces soldiers divided into seven paths to charge forward, closely followed by fully armed soldiers.
When they encountered strong resistance, the special forces soldiers tossed several metal bombs, blowing the remaining rebels sky-high.
After taking out a few small positions and running out of metal bombs, the soldiers behind used handheld rocket launchers and grenade machine guns for fire suppression.
If any cultivators attempted to break through and flee, these special forces students would intercept them, working together to gradually sweep upward.
After all, not everyone was Chen Chu, whose speed was comparable to an ordinary cultivator at the first level of heaven, able to sense danger in advance and ignore light firearms with his battle armor.
However, there were still fierce individuals.
For instance, a team composed of Xia Youhui, Li Hao, Liu Feng, and Bai Mu left most people far behind.
At the front, Xia Youhui charged forward with a Heavy Shield, attracting fire, directly ignoring grenades unless faced with anti-material rockets, in which case he would dodge.
While he attracted fire, Li Hao and the others used the cover of night to charge from the side, clearing their path almost as quickly as Chen Chu.
After all, the remaining rebels had been bombed and were in disarray, with few left intact, let alone any reinforcements.
Boom! Boom! Boom!!
Outside the valley, under the night sky, Chen Chu resembled a furious giant elephant, emanating a terrifying aura as he attacked wildly, each slash accompanied by a piercing shriek.
His opponent was a mid-stage cultivator of the three heavens, but this rebel leader had already been injured by missiles and was less than twenty percent of his strength. While fleeing, he happened to encounter Chen Chu charging up from the mountain below.
Pfft! When he tried to withstand eleven strikes from Chen Chu, Kulu spat out a mouthful of blood, his gray true power aura dimming.
Sensing Kulu's weakening aura, Chen Chu's momentum surged instantly, and he unleashed a blade of light that doubled in speed and power.
With terrifying force, the blade instantly tore through Kulu’s true power, severing his weapon and then slicing through half of his body...
...
In the valley, the rebel stronghold, made up of brick buildings, had turned into ruins, with craters several meters wide scattered everywhere, and steam rising from the ground.
The place was filled with the bodies of rebels, densely packed, illuminated by the flames like a scene from hell.
However, not everyone was dead; some rebels remained in the collapsed buildings and caves, waiting for the bombing to end before fleeing in all directions.
In the darkness, a group of over ten rebels had just run out of the valley when a figure appeared in the distance. The leading rebel shouted, "Stop! Who goes there?"
But the figure did not pause, instead charging at an even faster speed. The rebel leader's expression grew stern: "It's the enemy! Kill him!"
Bang! Bang! Bang!! The sound of gunfire erupted, bullets hailing down on Chen Chu, sparking countless sparks yet failing to budge his Enhanced Battle Armor.
To Chen Chu, a distance of over twenty meters was crossed in the blink of an eye as he charged into the crowd, dazzling blade lights scattering dismembered limbs.
Pfft! Pfft!!
In a matter of moments, more than ten rebels were slaughtered by Chen Chu, including the leading cultivator at the first level of heaven.
At this moment, Chen Chu's eyes reddened slightly, his gaze icy, emanating a terrifying, brutal aura as he darted past the corpses.
His target was the rebel stronghold’s main base.
However, when Chen Chu charged into the valley, the rebel site was empty, leaving only ruins and corpses scattered across the ground.
Swish! Swish!!
Not believing in evil, Chen Chu weaved through the rubble, searching for any seriously injured "cultivators" who hadn’t died; killing even one of them counted as contribution points.
