Chapter 38: Killing Mutants as if Slaughtering Dogs, Everyone is Terrified, To Kill the Mechanical Man?
Since the Ascension Sect dared to summon a Mechanical Abyss in Xia City for experiments,
they certainly weren't to be trifled with.
This stronghold harbored numerous experts.
Additionally, their latest research triumph—the Aggregation type S components!
When these components are implanted inside the steel Mutants, these Mutants, upon death, would evolve into stronger beings.
Boss-level Mutants!
In theory, as long as the conditions such as energy, materials, and components are sufficient in quality and quantity, it could even give birth to Lord-level beings!
Even though, with their current technology and conditions, the Ascension Sect could only breed Boss-level Mutants.
That was still an astonishing feat.
As this Boss-level Mutant joined the battle,
the situation, which was initially one-sided and dominated by Ren Dongyang's elite bodyguard army, saw the beleaguered Ascension Sect members suddenly under much less pressure.
"Kill them!"
Squad Leader Qian Yesheng, seeing the experiment's success, was overjoyed and ecstatic, roaring at the Boss Mutant.
"Roar!"
The Boss Mutant's eyes flashed, its hands wielding a huge scythe ablaze with purple flames, lunging toward Zhang Dali with formidable force. Its approach was like a high-speed train, crashing forward with extreme speed.
"Bang!"
Zhang Dali's pupils constricted sharply, his mind shocked. As the leader and strongest among this group of elite bodyguards, he felt immense pressure under this near-crazed assault and kept retreating.
"Kill!"
Seeing this, the other Mutants roared excitedly, charging at Ren Dongyang's group of bodyguard Mechanical Men, with ferocious, bloodthirsty glints in their eyes.
Seeing the stalemate unfold, Xu Gu had no intentions of intervening.
Instead, he turned and sneaked to another place.
An exit.
The only exit.
Previously, there were bodyguard Mechanical Men blocking this spot, trapping the Ascension Sect's Mutants and members.
Now, the situation had reached a deadlock,
and the bodyguards, too, had rushed over to provide support.
Thus, the Ascension Sect's Mutants and members used this exit to attempt an escape.
After all, this place is a battlefield, and staying here, being lower in combat power, they were merely cannon fodder. Win or lose, all were cannon fodder, unable to help and only causing more chaos.
However,
at the end of the road, it wasn't a path to life,
but rather, utter death.

...
Watching the Ascension Sect members and Mutants run out continuously like dumplings being dropped in boiling water, Xu Gu's lips curled upward.
His Blue Fury Sky Slash swinging increasingly effectively.
Like a One Slash to Heaven!
The cold light altering the heavens!
Everywhere it passed, all was obliterated.
These Ascension Sect members and Mutants, didn't even have the time to react, suddenly seeing a terrifying slash fall,
Their pupils constricted sharply, power cores ceased functioning, overwhelmed with astonishment.
Numerous questions filled their minds.
Could this slash instantly kill a Lord? Such a powerful attack? And you're using it on us?
"Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!"
Explosions resounded.
Utterly astonishing.
Heart-shockingly majestic.
The scene reached a peak of splendor.
Explosions are art!
What's more spectacular, after these Mutants died, was the nearly vast ocean of Crystal Energy, pouring into Xu Gu's body like a cascading waterfall.

Notification messages instantly 99+!
At this moment, Mutants and Ascension Sect members are still surging out from the inside.
These Ascension Sect, their minds corrupted by the special force of the Mechanical Abyss, have nearly gone insane, especially in this crowded section, even if there is a problem ahead, the members of the Mutants and Ascension Sect behind them still rush forward mindlessly.
When the emerging Mutants and Ascension Sect members gradually thinned, Xu Gu's eyes turned cold, gripping the Blue Fury Sky Slash, and walked deeper.
The great sword in his hand swung, chopping down all the attacking Mutants encountered along the way.
Energy Liquid splashed like blood.
Iron parts like bones and flesh scattered everywhere.
Sparks and electrical arcs flickered.
…
"These core members of the Mutants and Ascension Sect are escaping!"
"Quick, notify Young Master Dongyang to send reinforcements!"
"Otherwise, our efforts will be in vain!"
"Hurry!"
Zhang Dali was being severely suppressed by the Boss Mutant, his wrists were cracked, and his body was covered with severe wounds.
And this was even with several other powerful companions assisting him.
Effectively outnumbering the enemy.
Yet they were still losing, potentially facing defeat at any moment.
If left to face this beast alone, they would probably turn into ashes in an instant!
However, at this moment, they finally noticed the aberration.
Suddenly, anger surged, grinding their teeth with hatred.
"Seeking death! Someone dares to steal our rewards?"
"Who is it!"
"Roll out fast! Don't let us from the Ren family settle the score with you!"
Zhang Dali noticed someone hunting the forbidden members of the Ascension Sect, and his anger increased greatly, even momentarily suppressing the Boss Mutant in front of him.
He bellowed angrily towards Xu Gu.
"Who dares kill my Ascension Sect members!"
"Kill him!"
"Attack!"
Not just Zhang Dali and others were furious, the senior members and experts of the Ascension Sect were also fuming with anger, their faces fierce and murderous intent intense as if tangible!
They charged out directly.
Ignoring even the attacks from Ren Dongyang's bodyguards!
"Let them go!"
"Let them kill each other!"
A sinister look flashed across Zhang Dali's face, a giant dark cannon sparkling with cold light appeared on his shoulder, already starting to charge.
Seeing this, others also charged up, preparing to unleash firepower.
Planning to exterminate Ascension Sect members and Xu Gu!
But.
Contrary to their expectations, the scenario of the Ascension Sect experts and that mysterious fighter fiercely battling didn't occur.
Only a loud boom was heard, followed by what seemed like a chain reaction, boom, boom, boom, like setting off fireworks.
All the Ascension Sect's experts attacking Xu Gu were chopped down with one slash.
Without any surprise.
Under the Blue Fury Sky Slash, all are equal.
It only takes one slash.
"Damn it!"
"What's going on?"
Zhang Dali and others' pupils shrank, disbelief filled their eyes, unimaginable that those nightmare-like Ascension Sect members, under the shadow of that colossal figure, were so vulnerable, like chickens made of pottery and dogs of tiles.
"Fire the cannon!"
"Help Ascension Sect, kill that guy!"
Zhang Dali's eyes reddened, so many Ascension Sect members, a huge amount of extra points, absolutely cannot fall into the hands of the person in front.
It must belong to the Ren family!
Even if it means allying with the beastly Ascension Sect, it will not be hesitated!
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Without his reminder, other ace bodyguards also understood this, directly firing the long-charged cannon shells.
"Hm?" Sensing the cannon shells capable of destroying the heavens and earth descending on him like a heavy rain, Xu Gu was not panicked at all; instead, he grinned, revealing a sinister smile.
"Good, heard that killing Mechanical Men can also yield the Crystal Energy rewards."
