Chapter 55: The Opportunity for Slaughter
Watching Tang San's departing figure, Wang Yanfeng suddenly felt a sense of loss. Having spent a year together, he had truly taught Tang San a lot, but similarly, he also learned something from Tang San. After the initial period, he had stopped seeing Tang San as a child, and now he saw the child as an equal.
More than that, he felt that Tang San had an extraordinary temperament. He was very assertive, yet calm at the same time. Perhaps, as he grew, he could truly bring some hope to humanity.
Subconsciously clenching his fist, Wang Yanfeng closed the window; he, too, had preparations to make. Later, when the Flash Leopards charged into the town, he needed to respond accordingly to clear any suspicion regarding Tang San's departure.
Upon leaving the wooden house, Tang San kept counting silently in his mind.
He didn't leave Wind Wolf Town immediately. In fact, after learning about the tiger man's entire plan that day, he had made his own plans.
Leaving directly was undoubtedly the safest choice, but this was also an excellent opportunity for him.
Last time, because he had tried different methods of using and cultivating the bloodline imprints of various demon races, the Flash Leopard imprint had fallen from the fourth to the third order. At the same time, his Wind Wolf imprint had not reached the peak of the fourth order yet. For him, this great battle between the Leopard Flash and the Wind Wolves was also an opportunity to strengthen his imprints.
The stronger the imprint, the higher the level of abilities that he could use.
Previously, the Rhino Demon, Aetherhorn Deer Demon, and White-Crested Falcon Demon had been a lucky find. But now, the Flash Leopards and Wind Wolves were right in front of him. And amid such a great battle, who would notice him?
Tang San was already very familiar with the layout of Wind Wolf Town. He concealed himself in the shadows, rapidly approaching the area where the frontline battle occurred.
Of course, he wouldn't approach the center, where a seventh-order demon faced off against a sixth-order and a fifth-order one. Moreover, the Wind Wolf Town altar was present below. With his current strength, he could not make much difference in the battle there. Therefore, he approached the edge of the battlefield.
As he got closer, he could feel the Wind Wolf and Flash Leopard imprints within him heating up continuously. This was a sign that the bloodlines were being stimulated. He could also sense that the battle between the two sides was intensifying.
Climbing up a building, Tang San crawled on the roof, looking toward the distance.
Not far from him, seven or eight Flash Leopards were attacking four Wind Wolves. Both sides were of the third and fourth order in cultivation.
Among the demon clans, the overall strength of the Wind Wolves and Flash Leopards was almost equal. Hence, they were sworn enemies, yet neither could gain an advantage.
At this moment, however, it was clear that the Leopard Flashes were gaining the upper hand. Among them, two possessed the strength of the fourth order. Along with the others, their breakneck speed allowed them to assault the four Wind Wolves continuously.
Among the four Wind Wolves, only one was at the fourth order, while the rest were at the third.
In terms of speed, although the Wind Wolves were not slow, they were at a marked disadvantage compared to the Flash Leopards. However, the Wind Wolves had more robust defense and power and could unleash wind blades. Therefore, even though the Flash Leopards prevailed, they had to be cautious to avoid being hit by the wind blades. Their attacks were careful, and they constantly whittled down the Wind Wolves by injuring them more and more, but killing them would require time.
Tang San observed their battle, then glanced at other skirmishes in the distance. This battle group was relatively isolated. The leading Wind Wolf kept shouting fierce howls, obviously calling for reinforcements. But at this time, the entire Wind Wolf Town was already embroiled in a significant battle, so how would there be any Wind Wolves available to support this front?
This is a good place.
Tang San’s eyes narrowed, and in the next instant, he made his move.
He crouched on the rooftop, rather than descending directly. He swung his hands, and the Wind Wolf bloodline imprinted within him was activated. Two wind blades shot out straight from the rooftop. Simultaneously, his Discerning Eye was also activated, capturing the movements of the Flash Leopards.
Two emerald-colored wind blades soared down into the fray. The Flash Leopards naturally sensed them, and they all dodged.
But how could the Flash Leopards withstand the wind blades that Tang San shot?
The two wind blades drew two beautiful arcs in the air, seemingly shooting into space, yet coincidentally, two swift yellow figures collided with them.
With two slicing sounds, the two third-order Flash Leopards were almost instantly sliced in half.
This sudden change startled both parties engaged in the battle.
The four Wind Wolves were naturally overjoyed, as they knew that not only had reinforcements arrived, but they were also strong. Typically, given their incredible speed, unless the Wind Wolves unleashed a large-scale, dense rain of wind blades, it was almost impossible to hit the Flash Leopards with wind blades.
The fact that the two Flash Leopards were not only hit but instantly killed implied that whoever had launched the two wind blades was very strong.
A fourth-order Flash Leopard roared and leaped up, pouncing toward the direction of the rooftop. Although it didn't know how the opponent had done it, it had to deal with the Wind Wolf on the rooftop.
When the fourth-order Flash Leopard rushed to the rooftop, it saw a yellow light that it immediately identified as the light that came with the Leopard Flash skill. The similarity in bloodline aura made it subconsciously assume, at first glance, that it was one of its own.
Thus, its first thought was that a companion had arrived and had dealt with the Wind Wolf on the roof.
And at that moment, the other party had already reached in front of it. A palm, quick as lightning, reached out and struck directly at its throat.
The pupils of the fourth-order Flash Leopard instantly contracted. The next moment, after being struck by the heavy blow, it saw a pair of eyes filled with purple hues and was immediately stupefied.
The bloodline power within its body surged out wildly.
Tang San pressed it down against the rooftop, activated the Mysterious Heaven Technique’s power, and unreservedly absorbed the energy from the Flash Leopard's body.
This was a fourth-order Flash Leopard, but as it was tricked by Tang San’s disguise as a Flash Leopard, it hadn’t even been able to unleash its full combat strength. Furthermore, Tang San had grown significantly stronger after his journey to Kali City. In an ambush against an unsuspecting opponent, how could the Flash Leopard stand a chance against him?
The energy of the Mysterious Heaven Technique rapidly became more potent during the continuous devouring, and the Flash Leopard imprint within his body grew increasingly warm and luminous. Once the bloodline power of this fourth-order Flash Leopard was completely devoured, the Flash Leopard imprint also ascended back to the fourth order. This was the bloodline power of a fourth-order Flash Leopard in peak shape. It was absolutely a tremendous boost!
The moment he fully devoured this Flash Leopard, the count in Tang San's mind had reached fifty.
In other words, it had been fifty breaths since the beginning of the battle ahead. He glanced distantly at the three great powers fighting fiercely in the center of Wind Wolf Town, aware that time was of the essence.
At this moment, below, due to the sharp decrease in the Flash Leopards’ strength and the desperate efforts of several Wind Wolves, the situation had changed. It would have been a crushing victory for the former, but now, the two parties had temporarily fallen into a stalemate.
Tang San, on the eaves, took a deep breath, rapidly circulating his energy. The recently devoured fourth-order Flash Leopard had made his energy incredibly potent. Blades of wind flew out, heading straight downward. With the activation of Discerning Eye, he precisely controlled the wind blades, covering the entire area.
The Flash Leopards fighting below immediately sensed danger. What did it mean that wind blades fell from the rooftop? It meant that the fourth-order Flash Leopard, which had gone up to kill the opponent, couldn't handle the enemy. Even worse, it might have already fallen to a Wind Wolf!
Those wind blades fell out of nowhere, illuminating the ground with an emerald hue.
The Flash Leopards dodged frantically, trying to evade the wind blades. But this time, Tang San showed no mercy. Eighteen wind blades flew out simultaneously, even more than he had used against the tiger man that day.
