The Gate of the Genkai

Attacked

The night was shrouded, and the sky was full of lead clouds, as if it was a moonless night.

In the dense forest near the Rat’s Nest stronghold, tall figures were gathering silently from all directions towards the stronghold.

These figures stopped a few miles away from the stronghold, no one spoke, as if they were waiting for something.

Not long after, a group of pitch-black clouds drifted in from a distance, baring its teeth and claws, transforming into the appearance of tigers, leopards and other ferocious beasts from time to time, full of evil spirits.

The dark cloud fell on a small hill near the stronghold and dissipated, revealing a rather short barbarian man wearing a black beast robeson.

This person is wearing a strange black hat, which looks like a black sheep’s head. His face does not look old, but his arms are very dry, like old tree roots. He is holding a white bone staff with a white skull on one end. On the head, two groups of black flames flickered in the black eye sockets.

Several tall barbarians were already standing on the hill, bowing down respectfully to this short barbarian.

“Meet the Commander”

“Are you all ready?” the little barbarian called the leader said, his voice low and hoarse.

“It has been properly arranged. The four exits of this base have been assigned to be guarded by clansmen. Today, this stronghold must be pulled out, and none of the human talisman masters inside will be able to escape.” A middle-aged barbarian who looked like a brown bear and carried two axes stepped forward Taking a step forward, he said viciously.

The barbarian leader nodded and looked at the stronghold from a distance.

“Master Commander, according to our information, there are star-rank warlocks sitting in this stronghold. Although the warriors of our clan are brave, they may not be able to match him.” The middle-aged barbarian hesitated for a while, and then said.

“Why are you worried about me? I came here just to meet these so-called human warlocks for a while.” The barbarian leader said proudly.

“Yes, I can rest assured if you take action, Lord Commander.” The middle-aged barbarian said flatteringly.

The leader waved his hand, waved the bone staff in his hand, and suddenly a white light came out. There was a piercing sound.

The barbarians ambushing near the stronghold shouted at the same time, and rushed towards the stronghold with boundless killing intent.

Rat’s Nest stronghold, Kun Zihao’s room.

Shi Mu sat cross-legged on the bed. It is slowly running the Prajna Celestial Art.

As the true qi circulated in his body, streaks of black qi emerged from his body faintly, wrapping around his body like a ribbon.

During the period of practicing Birthless Jue, he did not relax in the practice of Prajna Celestial Art, and now he is far away from the sixth level of advancement. It is already far away.

At this moment, a loud rumbling sound suddenly came from outside, and the whole stone room trembled faintly.

Shi Mu’s heart trembled, he quickly turned over and jumped out of the bed, grabbed the Meteorite Black Sword, and was about to walk outside when he suddenly thought of something, leaned over and took out a box from under the bed, inside was a thick stack of various colored symbols.

He grabbed all the talismans and put them in his arms, then pushed open the stone door and walked quickly outside.

to the outside. The rumbling sound became louder, and it actually came from all directions.

“Is someone attacking the stronghold?”

Surprised in Shi Mu’s heart, he glanced around and chose a direction to go.

Not long after he ran out, there was a sound of chaotic footsteps in a passage beside him.

Shi Mu’s heart trembled, he clenched the Meteorite Black Saber tightly, but then he breathed a sigh of relief, five or six talisman masters came, and Feng Li was among them.

“Senior brother Shi. Do you know what happened?” Those people were also surprised at first, and it was clear that Shi Mu was relieved this time, and a male talisman master dressed in Tianyin sect hurriedly asked.

“I’m not very clear, it seems to be attacking this stronghold.” Shi Mu shook his head and said.

He just finished speaking. There was a sound of shouting and colliding mana in the passage ahead.

A group of people’s faces changed drastically, then they looked at each other and rushed forward.

Shi Mu quietly took a step behind, approaching Feng Li, and was about to speak.

Just at this moment, the passage bends ahead. The two talisman masters who rushed to the front didn’t think much, and turned around directly.

“Be careful…” Seeing this, Shi Mu’s expression changed, and he quickly reminded.

but it’s too late

With the piercing sound of piercing the air, several black arrows came from the opposite side, piercing through the two unsuspecting talisman masters.

The two talisman masters let out a miserable cry, their bodies were lifted up by the arrow crossbow, and they were nailed fiercely into the wall at the corner.

One of the talisman masters was shot in the vitals and died instantly. The other young talisman master was not dead immediately. He looked at Shi Mu and others for help, and tried to raise his arms.

“Whoosh” a frightening howl

Another pitch-black bone spear came and nailed the young talisman master’s throat. The spear head penetrated half a foot into the wall, and a circle of cracks appeared on the surrounding walls.

Shi Mu’s face was solemn, his figure flickered, he leaned against the corner wall, turned his palms, took out four or five talismans, and listened with his ears.

The other talisman masters looked at the two people nailed to the wall, and stepped back a few steps showing fear.

The air around Shi Mu moved, and Feng Li leaned over.

Shi Mu glanced at him, then glanced at a few people in the distance, and said in a faint voice: “The ones who came here should be barbarians, and you shouldn’t be here.”

“Brother Shi, I have a deep hatred with the barbarians, and I will never do anything harmful to the human race. Besides, I have already entrusted you with my wealth and life.” Feng Li whispered with a wry smile.

Shi Mu nodded, didn’t say much, and turned his head away again.

The most urgent task is to figure out the current situation of the stronghold. Unfortunately, the curve ahead is the only passage connecting other places. If the barbarians block this place, they will not be able to leave here at all.It’s just that in the current situation, without knowing how many barbarians are ahead, even with his strength, he is unwilling to rush in boldly.

Just when Shi Mu hesitated, Feng Li said in a low voice after flickering his eyes a few times:

“Brother Shi, if I’m not mistaken, there should be four barbarians ahead.”

“How did you know?” Shi Mu was surprised when he heard this. .

“Since the totem on my body has mutated, it can perceive other people with the power of the totem. However, this perception ability has a distance limit. The effective range is only about fifty feet, and it can only perceive a rough distance.” Feng Said without any concealment.

“If it’s true that there are only four Houtian Totem Warriors, he doesn’t have to be too shy.” Shi Mu’s mind turned quickly after hearing this, but he didn’t doubt the truth of what the other party said.

At this moment, there was another loud bang

It was as if something huge had bombarded the peak of the stronghold. The underground passage shook violently, and cracks even cracked on the surrounding walls.

Feng Li’s feet were unsteady, and he fell towards the ground, and the other talisman masters were even more staggering.

Shi Mu shrank his pupils, not waiting for the vibration to stop. The body suddenly ejected, and jumped into the passage at the corner in a flash.

In the passage ahead, as Feng Li said, there are four barbarians.

Two of them were holding bows and arrows, but because of the shaking of the ground, their bodies were shaking and they couldn’t aim at anything.

Shi Mu was overjoyed, he raised his hand without thinking, and a few talismans came out.

With a flash of light, seven or eight white ice cones emerged, heading towards the four barbarians.

The faces of the four barbarians changed drastically. He hurriedly dodged to the side, narrowly dodging a few ice picks.

But at this moment, Shi Mu had already rushed forward, and with a movement of his arm, a brilliant flaming knife slashed towards the head of the frontmost barbarian holding a green longbow.

The barbarian archer roared, and the longbow was blocked above his head.

In his mind, the body of this long bow is made of green crystal, a specialty of the barbarian wasteland, which is harder than iron, as long as it blocks the knife. A few companions next to him can come to the rescue.

There was a “click”.

Under the light of the flame knife, the green longbow was as fragile as tofu, and it was easily cut in two.

The knife light didn’t stop at all, and there was a “chi”. Brazenly split the barbarian archer in half. Blood splattered everywhere.

Shi Mu’s expression was like steel, and he didn’t move at all in the bloody rain. With a wave of his arm, the light of the saber slashed out, and struck another bow-wielding barbarian beside him who had just pulled away his bow and arrow and was aiming at him.

There was a flash of blood. This person was chopped into two neatly, and the blood rained again in an instant.

The other two barbarians finally came to their senses, roared angrily, and rushed forward with their weapons waved.

The two men’s bodies and arms swelled up, obviously having activated the power of the totem. One held a black ghost-headed sword, and the other slashed over with a giant axe.

Shi Mu turned around, and the Meteorite Black Saber slashed horizontally.

Ka Ka

With a flick of the hands of the two barbarians, the ghost-headed sword and giant ax were directly broken into two pieces.

After the blinding fire flashed in front of the two, Shi Mu withdrew his knife expressionlessly and backed away.

The eyes of the two barbarians were full of horror, a red mark appeared on their necks, and then expanded rapidly, their heads rolled down, and the two headless corpses fell limply on the ground.

From Shi Mu’s attack to the killing of the four barbarians, it took only a few breaths for the tremors on the ground to stop at this moment.

After looking forward along the passage, he frowned slightly.

Behind the corpses of the four barbarians lay the corpses of three talisman masters. They should have been killed by those four barbarians as they heard the fighting sound before.

One of the corpses was the bald man Qiu Ming from the Tianyin sect who had clashed with him. There was a big hole in his chest and he had already lost his breath.

There was a sound of footsteps, and Feng Li ran over, looking at the four barbarian corpses on the ground, a look of shock flashed across his face.

Although he knew that Shi Mu could easily suppress the mutated himself, and his strength was definitely not weak, he never expected to be able to kill four totem warriors in one face-to-face.

“Brother Shi, what shall we do next?” Feng Li asked solemnly after heaving a long breath.

“Since the barbarians have invaded here, it seems that the entire stronghold has almost fallen. Although there are many talisman masters here, most of them have low actual combat power. I can forcefully rush out.” Shi Mu said without hesitation.

“There is Master Fang in the stronghold. He is a star-rank warlock. Isn’t he an opponent of these barbarians?” Feng Li hesitated for a moment and couldn’t help asking. To be continued. :
