Bizarre Survival: I Can Devour Thousands of Talents

Chapter 87, Chapter 086: Wind Trace and Sword Shadow, Outnumbered Against Overwhelming Force

Bigger is better, more is more beautiful, taller is stronger!

Based on Ling Xiao's personal experience, these may be individual cases with some deviations, and it is not impossible to perform operations such as challenging opponents of higher levels or making a comeback at the last minute.

He himself has hit it several times.

However, a higher level has an advantage over a lower level, and higher quality is more powerful than lower quality!

The only fixed talent he currently possesses is the "Excellent" quality: "Grinding Teeth and Sucking Blood".

This was only after he unlocked the hidden quests and completed the entire series, allowing him to gradually upgrade the talent rewarded by the system to the [Excellent] level!

This monster caused him a lot of trouble, but the reward he received was the most amazing!

【Whirlwind Shadowless Sword Technique】

This high-quality offensive skill has requirements regarding both level and attributes.

Of course, its effects are worthy of such stringent requirements.

All five special effects are there, and none of them are just filler.

Even used alone, it's considered top-tier among [Normal] skills, and it wouldn't be surprising if it were ranked as [Excellent].

While overjoyed, Ling Xiao was also well aware that he was currently unable to unleash the true power of this sword technique.

Ultimately, it's only because of the mysterious entity that I was allowed to use it ahead of time.

With a thought, the continuous effect of the Qi was temporarily halted.

Without any additional buffs, Ling Xiao swung his sword again, and it seemed to be much faster in his senses, making the Iron Heart in his hand feel even lighter and more agile.

Both [Gale Tornado] and [Rising Storm] are active skills. Ling Xiao tested them with minimal cost and found them to be very effective!

After the sword technique is activated, even his most ordinary sword swings can trigger the "Sword Shadow Like the Wind" skill.

The graceful curves left a trail of afterimages.

With a casual horizontal slash, the force of the energy spread out and directly cut the grass blades not far away in half!

From now on, I'm a man whose basic attacks come with special effects!

This is still the basic state without consuming physical or spiritual energy.

After the enhancement, it might be able to slash waves from a distance and wear down the target!

After experiencing [Wind Spirit Dance] again, the feeling is indeed quite different from rapid dodge and chasing wind steps.

The former is what can be considered a movement technique!

As for the ultimate skill [Whirlwind Shadow Slash], Ling Xiao was very tempted but couldn't afford to waste it. After all, recovery here depended entirely on himself, so he had to use it sparingly.

If we take a long-term view...

It's time to move on!

He initially held a negative and pessimistic attitude towards this inexplicable dream.

Once he has gained real benefits, Ling Xiao doesn't mind putting on a show of changing his expression.

Unfortunately, I don't know if I can take it out, and I don't know if I'll die here...

"There's always a way out. What's the worst that can happen? Just run yourself ruckus and see!"

On the path at dusk, the young man carrying a knife continued to stride quickly toward the castle.

During his journey, he kept his mind active, paying attention to his surroundings and summarizing the available information.

Three groups of people, or more accurately, four groups.

Apart from the mysterious being who remained hidden behind the scenes and followed him all the other strange creatures, all of them exhibited signs of mutation.

Moreover, it's not just ordinary mutation; it appears to be some kind of extremely evil "contamination" that has a huge impact on strength.

Having gone through the process of removing the pollution, Lingxiao instinctively attributes all the strange changes to the word "pollution".

The different conditions of mutant and bizarre monsters seem to be related to pollution, but he still doesn't know much about them and can't make an effective summary.

Upon waking up and finding himself in this godforsaken place, he immediately activated Ember Radiance.

As the Gluttonous Heart is upgraded to [Excellent], the quality of the Ember's Radiance also changes.

Now Ling Xiao can control it with greater precision.

For example, by compressing the area, the light is concentrated on the body surface.

There's no way around it; a glimmer of light in the darkness is a very tempting signal for some malicious beings.

This unknown world is clearly much more dangerous than the dungeons we've explored before.

So Ling Xiao's only thought was to find a way to escape as soon as possible, and then leave without bothering the big shots.

Now we might need to add one more point:

Unleashing powerful skills while fighting monsters is a wonderful thing!

But soon, Ling Xiao's rising mood came to a halt.

A squad of elite armored soldiers blocked their path, and it seemed they had nothing to say.

Armor clashed, and three men charged forward with guns raised amidst the clatter of footsteps!

Behind them were two rows of people holding shields, and a commander wielding a broadsword, who was shouting orders.

With no intention of engaging in a direct confrontation, Ling Xiao was about to duck into the nearby bushes when he heard a warning.

"The outside is full of magical traps; only the road is safe."

"grass!"

The rushing figure suddenly stopped. Ling Xiao reacted quickly. After the tactic was rejected, he immediately regrouped and lightly touched the ground with his toes, creating a gust of wind as he moved.

Gale Shadowless Sword, activate!

Moreover, his first move was the extremely aggressive [Wind and Clouds Rise]!

The blade tip thrust forward, and a burst of energy containing powerful spiritual energy shot out!

The surrounding air was stirred up, spiraling behind it, further amplifying the force of the attack and creating a fierce strike that spanned and enveloped the entire road!

The three men charging forward with their guns did not rush to meet them, but immediately stopped and waited for the tower shield guards who were not far behind them.

With a sudden pause, the heavy shield sank into the ground in a tilted defensive stance.

The three of them together were enough to block out the entire front of the squad.

boom--

The wind pounded against the shield, but it couldn't break through; it could only make the shield tremble slightly.

Ling Xiao was not alarmed by the sight.

He concluded after a long and arduous battle that the closer he got to the castle, the stronger the enemies he encountered.

How can you expect to defeat a stronger enemy with swordsmanship that is not fully powerful?

That's incredibly naive!

This isn't some kind of survival puzzle game where monsters drop loot that helps you defeat the boss of the next level.

"kill!!"

After the tower shield blocked the airflow, several spears and the armored soldiers wielding them swiftly rushed out and thrust them at the approaching Ling Xiao!

An inch longer, an inch stronger!

The gun is known as the king of weapons, thanks to its superior performance on the battlefield.

When the two sides are evenly matched, attack range is the key to victory!

Moreover, they were currently being attacked simultaneously by three violent spears. Although these figures had already undergone changes, their combat instincts and teamwork had been well inherited.

At least Ling Xiao felt a death threat no less severe than that of the previous swordsman.

High pressure can break the backbone of many geniuses, but it can also forge the true sharpness of the strong!

In the face of life and death, a hidden dragon emerges from the abyss!

His body lunged forward with the speed of a predatory eagle, and Ling Xiao practically delivered himself right in front of the spear's sharp edge.

There was no intention to brake suddenly.

With a flick of his wrist, the Iron Heart Blade "gently" adhered to the blade, aided by the wind.

It's not about chewing, it's about flicking.

Without significantly altering the direction of the gun blade, he created a very brief opening for himself.

In that fleeting moment, a figure slipped through the menacing array of spears.

Ling Xiao seemed to have tripped over a rock and lost his balance while sprinting, so he fell to the ground. But his feet did not leave the point of contact. Instead, he continued to exert force, twisted hard, and slid forward!

It was this "stumble" that allowed him not only to dodge the spear thrusts, but also to slip through the gap between the two armored soldiers.

Then, without turning around, he waved his hand, and a blade of light as sharp as a bolt of lightning suddenly shot up, slashing fiercely at the back of the spearman in the middle!

chap——

It penetrates the armor and gets into the flesh, but the feel is off.

Without time to think, Ling Xiao turned around and began a high-speed attack on the armored soldiers!

A spear is definitely not as useful as a sword at close range. Catching a figure rushing towards him from the side, Ling Xiao calmly and unhurriedly jumped and kicked out before he could even regain his footing!

He kicked the man hard in the chest!

The kick shattered the opponent's momentum as they staggered back two steps.

The magician's hands and feet are not only used to help him stand firm, but can also help him exert force that defies common sense when necessary!

This operation should not be used daily, but it can be used a few times in an emergency, and the body can withstand it.

Ling Xiao's offensive was not delayed at all. He used his Iron Heart Blade to cut and slash around the weak points of the armor, and his gusts of wind energy not only caused damage, but also helped to hinder the target's movements.

The latest novel is first published here!

It's possible to defeat a large number of opponents with a small force, but the difficulty lies in dealing with how others will come to your aid!

In a one-on-one fight, Ling Xiao fears no one!

In a group fight, he can only try to create a one-on-one situation in a localized area.

Don't be greedy with your attacks; dodge and retreat.

The broadsword swung down fiercely, its ferocity causing even Ling Xiao's eyes to twitch.

"They even killed their own people?!"

The center gunner's shoulder was caught off guard and cleanly sliced ​​off by the broadsword without hesitation.

Startled, Ling Xiao raised his hand and unleashed the [Gale Tornado] he had prepared beforehand!

Although I failed to kill that person just now, the energy and aura I left behind were more than enough!

After the attack was launched, the invisible energy suddenly gained color.

A wild roar suddenly erupted, and it hurtled out!

The greenery was as blue as the sky, but the swirling tornado was anything but pleasing to the eye.

A shockwave about two meters high struck the unfortunate gunman in the center, trapping him and rendering him unable to move. The others dared not approach rashly and had to go around it to continue their attack.

But they couldn't see Ling Xiao's figure. Upon closer inspection, they found that he was already right in front of them!

It turned out that Ling Xiao had taken advantage of the tornado's interference to close the distance again.

He knew his own fighting style well, so even if it meant being surrounded, he would fight in his area of ​​expertise!

A severed arm, its veins torn open, flew through the air in a spinning arc before landing with a thud.

Ling Xiao continued walking, showing no intention of expanding his gains.

Because of the ever-present "Danger Reflex," it's practically telling him where the enemy will attack from!

Too many, too tight, there's no chance to finish them off!

Unless he is willing to be injured in pursuit, but for Ling Xiao, being injured means a decline in his condition, which means that death is truly approaching.

This is something he absolutely cannot tolerate.

The broadsword whirled and danced, its powerful force sending chunks of earth flying.

Above, layers of dark golden light intertwined and flickered, causing the swift figures rushing left and right to pause.

The three-sided tower shield takes over the position and charges forward!

While Ling Xiao retreated, he also left behind a long-hidden killing move!

[Exile to Another Dimension]

Based on this unique mechanism, no monster has been able to withstand the damage so far.

Of course, it has to hit the target.

When dealing with targets that are equally agile, Ling Xiao naturally has to keep a tight grip on them and dare not release them casually.

But after several rounds of combat and figuring out the team's fighting patterns, he felt it was time.

The location, as usual, was where he had been, and also the target of the Tower Shield's attack.

Through observation, Ling Xiao regretfully discovered that only this kind of rigid shield charge could precisely step into the trap he had set.

The actions of the Claymore squad leader were not actually very fast.

However, considering that the swordsman had already noticed some clues, it's a good option to clear out the smaller enemies first, just to be on the safe side.

The spatial anomaly flashed by in an instant.

The shield bearer who charged forward immediately fell forward, losing most of his head and neck, and was then struck by Lingxiao's light blade at his most vulnerable moment.

Even with its exceptionally strong vitality, it would still perish with resentment after enduring such an attack.

Once the number of people decreased, the situation began to reverse.

Ling Xiao, who had been in a rather "disheveled" state, had accumulated a large amount of sword marks and wind energy during the battle, and now it was time to unleash them.

Whirlwind Shadow Slash!

His already swift movements accelerated once more, leaving almost a blur. The Iron Heart Blade, honed through actual combat, could now simultaneously possess the enhancements of both wind marks and qi.

As a result, swordsmanship that could not normally cause complete damage becomes significantly more lethal under the influence of Qi.

Strands of wind swirled around the broadsword squad leader, layer upon layer, almost engulfing him.

Despite its dark red aura surging around it, it let out a furious roar, preparing to enter the second stage.

Since Lingxiao has seized the opportunity to unleash its full power, it will not give it another chance to retaliate.

A violent explosion of wind and fire!

The offensive skills can be used directly for control!

The results were remarkable. In a short time, not only the heavily injured Captain Broadsword, but also the other monsters that came to support him were engulfed in flames.

The wind fanned the flames! The fire took shape thanks to the wind!

The two worked together perfectly, greatly increasing their power and allowing Ling Xiao to deliver his verdict with a powerful and resounding voice:

"Die!!"

The [Execution Declaration], after being fully charged, was indeed impressive, directly interrupting the Broadsword Squad Leader's transformation process once again.

The flowing demonic energy and shimmering demonic patterns paused briefly. At that moment, the final power of the Gale Shadow Slash erupted, completely piercing through the monster's body.

Then a fierce wind arose, the powerful gusts of wind tearing and ripping the scattered corpses into countless pieces of flesh.

"call……"

A series of powerful moves finally eliminated the most threatening enemy, and Ling Xiao, while catching his breath, did not forget to reposition himself.

At this moment, he had already forgotten about the so-called reward.

Immersing himself in battle seems to have become a source of amusement for Ling Xiao.

My spiritual energy is mostly depleted, but my stamina is still okay. However, as I can't quickly defeat my opponent, the stamina I'm consuming from dodging keeps increasing.

The sword technique's force was dispelled.

The battle, which lasted less than two minutes, was extremely taxing.

Using the lowest possible energy of his internal energy to engage in a prolonged battle, Ling Xiao realized that these people wouldn't run away, and he lost interest in a quick victory.

Seize every opportunity to kill the enemy efficiently.

Before long, the remaining armored soldiers also fell down with their battered and broken bodies.

Without someone in charge, even the best equipment can't overcome the gap in raw strength.

Ling Xiao didn't use any skills; he relied entirely on the damage from the automatic explosions of the Wind and Fire Combo to slowly whittle down the man's health.

Only after the battle ended did he remember the reward.

But after waiting for a long time without receiving any notification, he had no choice but to lower his tone and ask softly, "Uh... hello, madam."

"Don't these monsters offer that kind of swordsmanship reward?"

The quick response indicates that the other party was present.

But the answer left Ling Xiao speechless.

"This time... you're going to be gone..."
