76: One man guards the pass

Xiong Da looked at Xun Xiuyuan, who was asking him questions with a calm expression, and was also startled. This human's psychological quality is quite good. I'm talking about life and death with them, and he's asking me why I can talk. What kind of thought process is that? Humans are really strange.

Anyway, his side had already won, so when he heard Xun Xiuyuan's question, he replied, "I have a special bloodline, and my body has evolved early. What's so strange about being able to speak?"

After a pause, he continued, "My name is Xiong Da, not Da Xiong."

"Xiong Da? Oh, then I remembered wrong. Is Baldy Qiang here?" Xun Xiuyuan, of course, remembered that the Man Xiong Clan had a master named Xiong Da. He just wanted to chat for a couple more sentences so that his teammates behind him could recover a bit more, as they had been fighting continuously and were all injured.

"Baldy Qiang? What's that?" Xiong Da felt for the first time that communicating with humans was exhausting; he couldn't understand anything.

"Back to the original question, if you don't commit suicide, I'm going to arrange for people to charge. At that time, I will eat all of you, including your bones."

Since he couldn't understand, he ignored it and asked the human's decision again.

He enjoyed the process of pushing his opponents to despair.

Xun Xiuyuan said to Xie Lin and Li Feihong behind him, "The secret passage is less than five meters wide. Don't come out; just hold your ground."

Then he turned his head to look at Xiong Da: "Da Xiong, we've decided. We'll kill all of you and enter the Ling Tian Pagoda."

Xiong Da realized after hearing this that he might have been played by this Xun Xiuyuan. After roaring to the sky, he let out an angry shout.

Suddenly, the surrounding otherworldly beasts had already charged over. Hundreds of otherworldly beasts squeezed the narrow entrance of the underground passage, filling it with debris and making it impassable.

Due to the limited width of the underground passage entrance, only about a dozen otherworldly beasts could attack Xun Xiuyuan simultaneously. Even with the Firebirds above, the number would not exceed thirty.

Thirty otherworldly beasts attacking was nothing to Xun Xiuyuan.

With Explosive Ignition Art + Berserk Blade Technique + Sword Qi Traverse + Copper Wall Iron Barrier + Blood God Body + illusory armor, Xun Xiuyuan, equipped with five divine skills and a transcendent-grade battle armor, was completely fearless of the Immaculate Realm otherworldly beasts' attacks, frantically unleashing damage on the densely packed otherworldly beasts in front of him.

Xun Xiuyuan was extremely excited. This was too exhilarating! In less than ten minutes, the number of otherworldly beasts he had slain had already exceeded five hundred. This was the first time his slaying progress had been so fast.

Xiong Da behind him remained unmoved by the deaths of the otherworldly beasts, because these otherworldly beasts would die anyway. Even if they weren't slain by Xun Xiuyuan, they would be erased by the relic's rules.

How could Xun Xiuyuan bear to let these otherworldly beasts be erased by the relic's rules? Of course, it was better to erase them himself.

When Xun Xiuyuan's kill count reached two thousand, the big shots waiting outside had already erupted in a frenzy.

Li Jun opened his mouth and asked Xie An, "Old Xie, how many talismans did you give this kid?"

Xie An was also unclear about Xun Xiuyuan's exact situation at this moment. He only knew that his endurance was very strong, but it shouldn't be to the point of not needing rest. He himself couldn't do that.

"The number given is the usual normal amount. The seed contestants from the four major cities all get the same amount," Xie An thought for a moment and still answered the Ancestor of the Li Family's question.

Wen Ruyu spoke at this moment, "Is it possible that this young fellow has a talent? Old Xie, as the Xie Family's son-in-law, you wouldn't not know, would you? If it's a talent, then that would be wonderful."

Xie An directly shook his head and said, "He's been in the abyss for less than two months. I only know that he advances extremely quickly, and his mental power also grows very fast. When he came in, he was only Xiantian, and now he's already Immaculate. As for talent, I really don't know."

Li Jun, seeing Xie An say this, also leaned towards Wen Ruyu's view and spoke again, "If this young fellow hasn't been using talismans, but has been fighting using his own talent, then if he enters the Ling Tian Pagoda, there's a very high probability he'll pass the fifth floor."

Xie An did not speak. He wasn't confident whether Xun Xiuyuan could pass the fifth floor, but he still held hope.

Wen Ruyu's beautiful eyes widened, and she suddenly realized, "That's right! If he can clear the fifth floor, won't our human race have hope of breaking through the shackles of the Shattering Void Realm?"

Wang Yonghua listened to the three people's conversation without interjecting. His previous remarks had displeased the three, and he understood the principle that the more one says, the more mistakes one makes. He only listened and did not speak, just in case.

Xie An said, "There are at least five or six thousand otherworldly beasts left. Let's talk about it after he enters the Ling Tian Pagoda."

Li Jun and Wen Ruyu also nodded slightly.

Mu Ying's face was ashen as he watched Xun Xiuyuan's kill count rapidly increase.

"How did this Xun Xiuyuan do it? And what is Xiong Da of your Man Xiong Clan doing? It's already the final round of the arena. Xiong Da has no reason not to notice Xun Xiuyuan, with so many people fighting, there's no reason for him not to be present. Why isn't Xiong Da stopping Xun Xiuyuan's slaughter?"

The tall Shattering Void Realm expert of the Man Xiong Clan completely ignored Mu Ying and turned to the other two Shattering Void Realm experts, saying, "This must be Xiong Da's strategy. These otherworldly beasts with very low kill counts are going to die in the relic anyway. It's better to use them to consume the remaining human race's vitality. If you look at the otherworldly beast kill count, you'll know that the number of remaining humans must not be many."

The cloaked Shattering Void Realm expert of the Otherworldly Ghost Clan said, "What you say makes a lot of sense. Once the human race's vitality is exhausted, the otherworldly beasts should eliminate all remaining human elements."

The fiery Firebird nodded, remaining silent.

Mu Ying heard what the tall Savage Bear said. Although it was a guess, it made some sense.

Seeing that the other two did not stand with him, he stopped speaking.

He knew that the three Shattering Void Realm experts around him all looked down on him and envied him.

After all, last time, someone from the Shadow Demon Clan passed the fourth floor of the Ling Tian Pagoda and brought back a damaged bronze lamp.

After obtaining it, he comprehended the damaged bronze lamp and broke through to the Shattering Void Realm, and it was a breakthrough in the comprehension of the law of life, making his soul exceptionally powerful, so much so that his combat power could contend with an ordinary late-stage Shattering Void Realm expert.

They looked down on his lower cultivation realm and envied his fortuitous encounter. As long as he could continue to comprehend the bronze lamp, he might even break through the Shattering Void Realm in the future.

Thinking of his grand plan in Jiaolong City, a smile played on the corner of his mouth. At that time, let's see if your faces can still be so smug.

Inside the relic.

With all of Xun Xiuyuan's abilities activated, the attacks of the Immaculate Realm could only leave a white mark on his skin, completely unable to break through his defenses.

Before the Blood God Body was upgraded, although the damage was very low, the pain was extremely strong.

Now, the attacks of the Immaculate Realm, after hitting Xun Xiuyuan's body, felt no different from a tickle to Xun Xiuyuan. He let go of all his mental focus, no longer considering the damage he might take, and unleashed his full output.

Although he couldn't leave the tunnel entrance and could only fight in a confined space, which limited the display of the Berserk Blade Technique.

However, he couldn't resist the dense crowd of otherworldly beasts at this moment. Since they were all going to die anyway, not a single one of these otherworldly beasts retreated.

Xun Xiuyuan fought more and more fiercely, showing no signs of declining vitality. Xie Lin and Li Feihong behind him had only slain a few scattered otherworldly beasts.

The two exchanged glances, both seeing admiration in each other's eyes.

Truly, one man holding the pass, ten thousand cannot open it!
