Chapter 82 Rank 7 Heir?
Chapter 82 Rank 7 Heir?
Lu Hao on the other side was completely dumbfounded. What was he talking about? Did he see that my qi and blood had recovered and I was going to surrender? But if I was going to surrender, why did he have such a taunting expression?
Lu Hao now regrets that his mental strength is not enough, otherwise he would be able to understand what the cave warriors opposite him are saying.
Never mind, whether he figured it out or not, dead people can't talk anyway.
"kill!"
Lu Hao roared and unleashed his inner energy as he slashed forward.
This time, because the fourth-rank martial artist on the other side had already consumed a lot of his energy, his defense was insufficient, and Lu Hao successfully broke through, with a portion of his energy rushing straight to the abdomen of the underground martial artist.
The underground warrior was instantly struck by the violent blood energy. Although he was not seriously injured, it meant that his condition was declining.
The underground warrior stared at Lu Hao in shock, wanting to know how Lu Hao had done it.
After all, his life force as a mid-level fourth-grade martial artist had been almost completely depleted, while this high-level third-grade martial artist was still able to unleash such an attack.
He panicked instantly. If things continued like this, he would definitely get injured, or even die at the hands of the warriors from this land of resurrection.
The underground warrior looked around, preparing to flee.
Lu Hao wouldn't give him that chance. He stepped into the void, gripped the sword with both hands, and slashed down.
A crimson light flashed across the night sky, followed by the clash of weapons and the explosion of blood and qi.
Upon closer inspection, one can see a third-rank martial artist chasing and slashing at a fourth-rank martial artist, who is clearly struggling to defend himself.
With three more strikes, Lu Hao successfully cut a huge gash in the chest of the fourth-rank underground cave warrior opposite him, from which blood was flowing out rapidly.
Upon seeing this, the fourth-rank martial artist opposite him took out a porcelain bottle from his pocket, preparing to drink something. Lu Hao wouldn't give him that chance and directly swung his sword.
A streak of blood-red light, nearly ten meters long, slashed through the night sky.
The blade successfully struck the head of the opposing martial artist, who had been trying to take something in the process, leaving him no time to defend himself. With a single strike, the head of the fourth-rank martial artist fell to the ground.
[Killed an enemy, kill points +1497]
Lu Hao breathed a sigh of relief. This battle was still quite difficult. If he hadn't had the sixth-grade leather armor to defend himself, even if he could kill the opponent, the price he would have to pay would not have been small.
Lu Hao dug out the heart of the cave warrior who had fallen to the ground. After all, it was worth 100 credits and could be considered a spoil of war from his battle.
Lu Hao took the porcelain bottle from the cave warrior's hand; it appeared to contain pills. He opened the bottle.
Instantly, a vibrant energy emanated from it. Lu Hao felt his blood and energy recovering after just one sniff, and some of his minor injuries also began to heal.
Lu Hao immediately put the bottle cap back on.
Essence of life
Unexpectedly, Lu Hao weighed the bottle in his hand with delight, estimating that it contained about ten grams of life essence.
This is a truly precious item! It's a healing treasure that only a ninth-grade demonic plant can condense, and it's effective even for ninth-grade beings. Ten grams of this could probably pull someone back from the brink of death.
Lu Hao remembered that the government offered 20 million per gram, but even that was a case of high price but no market. After all, the reserves of the three prefectures were not much, and with so many injured humans needing to use it, there was simply not enough.
Now that he has these ten grams of life essence, it's practically like Lu Hao has gained an extra life. After all, for someone of the lower three ranks, even one gram of life essence has a very significant effect.
After carefully collecting the life essence, Lu Hao began to ponder the identity of the cave warrior before him. Ordinary cave warriors could only barely access the life essence at the sixth rank.
Furthermore, it is strictly forbidden to take the essence of life out of the main city.
This mid-stage fourth-rank martial artist carries life essence and has mastered qi and blood; could he possibly be the offspring of that seventh-rank commander?
The more Lu Hao thought about it, the more he felt that his idea was right. After all, only when a seventh-rank cultivator is injured can they come into contact with the essence of life, so it's not a problem to secretly retain a little bit when using it.
Moreover, this offspring was so outstanding, having mastered the Qi and blood, and possessing considerable combat power, yet he was still killed by Lu Hao.
That seventh-rank commander isn't going to just come over for revenge, is he?
Lu Hao decided to store the fourth-grade corpse in his storage space, planning to dispose of it later.
After all, if the opposing seventh-rank official found out that his prized offspring had died in the meat grinder, wouldn't he directly retaliate against the human race? Or should he find a place to dispose of the body, at least so that the other side wouldn't find out that the body died in the meat grinder?
After covering up all traces, Lu Hao headed in another direction to find a new ambush location.
After all, if that seventh-rank official had some special means to sense the location of their offspring's death, wouldn't that be explosive?
However, Lu Hao's memory did not lack such special techniques; rather, they were not available to seventh-rank cultivators. Such techniques were only usable by those at the absolute peak level.
But this is in the outer realm, where the highest rank is only ninth grade, and there is no absolute peak, so there are no such special methods.
However, it's still best to be cautious.
Lu Hao walked for about ten kilometers, then dug another hole and continued to lie in ambush, waiting for the arrival of the underground martial artists.
Although the battle just now was indeed a bit difficult, it still didn't allow Lu Hao to break through that barrier. He's still one step away from his ultimate move.
Lu Hao felt that he needed to find a fifth-rank opponent for a life-or-death battle to truly break through this barrier and master the ultimate technique.
Now that he has the essence of life as his trump card, Lu Hao naturally plans to ambush a fifth-rank opponent here in order to truly master his ultimate move.
One day, two days, three days passed...
Fortunately, Lu Hao had plenty of food in his space, otherwise he would have been unable to hold on for a long time.
……
On the other side, five days after Lu Hao killed that mid-level fourth-rank martial artist.
The edge of the meat grinder.
"Commander Mu, we have not found any trace of Young Master Mu."
A sixth-rank underground martial artist spoke to the people standing in front.
"Hmph, no, my son is exceptionally talented. He mastered Qi and Blood early on, and he can even escape from a fifth-rank Resurrection Land warrior."
Not to mention, he still possesses the essence of life, how could he possibly just disappear?
"It's been six days since my son entered this meat grinder, but now there's no news at all. He must have met with some misfortune."
Commander Mu said. Just as Commander Mu took a step forward, preparing to enter the meat grinder to avenge his child...
"Mu Kui, are you trying to break the rule that high-quality goods can't go to the meat grinder?"
A shout came from across the meat grinder.
"snort"
Commander Mu looked at the fifth and sixth rank officials behind him.
"You all enter this meat grinder and kill all the warriors from the Land of Rebirth. Hmph, I don't believe the Land of Rebirth can send out so many fifth and sixth-rank warriors."
