Mortal Bones

“Plop!…”

Seven or eight giant rats, before they could even let out a scream, had their heads chopped off and fell to the ground.

But immediately, more than a dozen giant rats rushed out from the thick fog and rushed towards Xu Taiping again.

And this time, perhaps because they smelled the blood, the hair of the dozen giant rats stood up and rushed towards Xu Taiping one by one.

“Swish, swish, swish!”

Just like before, Xu Taiping raised his knife and cut off the heads of the dozen giant rats.

The Leipo Knife in his hand not only contained the power of thunder, but the knife itself was also extremely sharp. Even if the fur of these giant rats was as hard as that of monsters, it could still be easily cut.

But as the bloody smell on Xu Taiping's side became heavier and heavier, the rats that were originally running around in the mountains and forests turned around and rushed towards Xu Taiping.

"Bang!"

Because there were so many giant rats rushing out of the thick fog, even if Xu Taiping chopped down dozens of them in a row, he was still pushed back by the rats that continued to rush from behind.

After this retreat, the number of giant rats in front of him suddenly increased from dozens to hundreds.

"Zhi!..."

As a last resort, Xu Taiping had to consume a small part of his true energy and use a style of chaotic cicada.

"Bang!"

Amid the piercing sound of cicadas, more than a hundred giant rats were killed by the sword energy of the chaotic cicada style.

However, the time gained by the chaotic cicada style was soon consumed by the thousands of giant rats rushing out of the thick fog.

Facing these thousands of giant rats besieging from all directions, Xu Taiping could only fight and retreat.

In the end, he retreated all the way to the entrance of the chaotic stone hill.

Here, because of the chaotic rocks blocking the way and the entrance being only three feet wide, only seven or eight giant rats could rush in each time.

Xu Taiping's pressure was relieved a lot at once.

But the good times didn't last long. As the number of giant rats was too large, the stones piled up at the entrance of the rocky hill were knocked open by them.

The entrance that could only accommodate seven or eight giant rats squeezed in seventy or eighty giant rats at once.

And as the number of rats in the back increased, the entrance of the rocky hill continued to expand.

"Swish!..."

Fortunately, Xu Taiping was calm enough and his blood power was deep enough. Even when facing such a large number of giant rats and unable to use his true energy easily, he didn't panic at all with the long sword in his hand, and he still harvested the lives of seven or eight giant rats with one sword.

Gu Qingcheng, who saw this scene through the gaps in the stone fortress from a distance, her beautiful eyes became brighter and brighter.

"With a physique far superior to that of cultivators or even warriors of the same realm, and a heart as strong as steel, this Rusty Lion was born to climb the Xuanhuang Tower. Which force in the Shangqing Realm cultivated this disciple?"

Watching Xu Taiping facing hundreds of giant rats alone, still able to remain calm, Gu Qingcheng couldn't help but mutter to herself in her heart.

More than a hundred years ago, hidden sects like theirs did train a group of disciples to enter the Xuanhuang Tower.

But in her opinion, even those people back then were not necessarily better than Xu Taiping.

"Except for my eldest brother."

She suddenly added silently in her heart.

"Bang!..."

Just then, the wall surrounded by huge stones on the left side of the entrance to the Stone Hill was suddenly knocked open by a group of giant rats.

In an instant, hundreds of giant rats rushed into the Stone Hill.

This time, Xu Taiping was once again forced to retreat again and again, and was even almost bitten by a giant rat while retreating.

Fortunately, Zhai Mo had already rushed into the stone fort with the sixty or seventy refugees.

"Mr. Zhang, Nanxing, you settle these people, Miss Qingcheng, quickly block the door of the stone fort, I will go to meet the young master."

Zhai Mo, who was standing at the door of the stone fort, shouted to the inside, then turned his head and rushed towards Xu Taiping at the entrance.

"Bang!"

With the joining of Zhai Mo, Xu Taiping, who had been constantly retreating after being hit by hundreds of giant rats, finally regained his balance.

"Brother Zhai Mo, block for me for a moment!"

After Xu Taiping chopped off the heads of four or five giant rats with a "swish", he suddenly turned around and shouted to Zhai Mo beside him.

"Okay!"

Zhai Mo agreed without asking the reason.

As he said that, there was a "boom" and a blazing aura spread from Zhai Mo's body.

Immediately, Zhai Mo swept away the hundreds of giant rats in front of him with an axe with a blazing axe shadow.

"Boom!..."

More than a hundred giant rats were chopped to pieces by Zhai Mo's axe, and the huge rat group was split open.

But immediately, the gap was filled by the rat group behind.

In less than a moment, hundreds of giant rats appeared in front of Zhai Mo.

"What did you rely on to hold on for so long just now?"

Looking at the rat group rushing in front of him, Zhai Mo, whose true energy had been exhausted and whose blood was running out, smiled bitterly.

"Boom!..."

Just when Zhai Mo was about to use up the last bit of true energy and blood in his body to stop the rat group for a while, a fist rushed past him like a torrent.

"Brother Zhai Mo, get out of the way!"

Xu Taiping's voice rang out.

Zhai Mo did not hesitate at all and rolled to the side.

The next moment, he saw Xu Taiping, carrying the shadow of his fist that filled the sky, and his fist that was like thunder, punching heavily towards the group of rats in front of him.

"Boom, boom, boom!..."

In an instant, a crashing sound like rolling spring thunder exploded in the mountains and forests.

Xu Taiping's fists, as well as the dense fist shadows behind him, seemed to be endless, constantly hitting the rats in front.

Then everyone discovered with astonishment that the tidal swarm of rats in front of the rocky hill was actually hit by Xu Taiping's fists, like the ebbing tide of the sea, and kept retreating into the mountains and forests behind.

This is exactly the wrathful thunder style of the Great Sage Fist.

"Great Holy Fist, he actually practices the Great Holy Fist of the demon ancestor's lineage just like his elder brother?!"

Gu Qingcheng stood there motionless with a look of astonishment.

"boom!……"

At this time, with Xu Taiping's last punch, the huge group of rats was actually forced back outside the exit of the mass grave by his punch.

In an instant, everyone in the stone castle, including the refugees, burst into cheers.

However, Gu Qingcheng frowned at this time, then shook his head and murmured:

"No, the Great Sage Fist practiced by this Rusty Lion is not complete, otherwise his final punch of the Raging Thunder style would be enough to kill all the rat fists within a thousand feet in front of the fist. That would be the real Great Sage Fist. Furious thunder style!”
