Chapter 2404 - 2404 Back to the airship (1)
2404 Back to the airship (1)
Seeing that the elemental spirit cultivators ‘leader was summoning reinforcements, Tang Zhen immediately withdrew from the crowd and decided to temporarily avoid the sharp edge.
The group of elemental spirit cultivators had the advantage in numbers. There were probably four to five thousand of them in total. He did not need to fight them head-on, as he would not be able to win either.
In addition, the leader of the elemental spirit cultivators was being held back and would no longer pose a threat to his retreat. If he did not leave now, when would he?
After circling around the camp a few times and avoiding the monsters that surrounded them, Tang Zhen chose a safe spot.
He took out a wooden stick-like object from his arms, broke it, and threw it on the ground. Soon, a flame appeared.
Immediately after, thick red smoke rose, forming a smoke pillar that could not be dispersed. It could also be clearly seen from a distance.
The elemental spirit cultivator called for his companions, while Tang Zhen also called for er Gou to leave this increasingly dangerous place.
The leader of the elemental spirit cultivators in the distance naturally guessed that Tang Zhen was going to leave when he saw this. His face was full of unwillingness.
He could only watch Tang Zhen leave. However, he did not have any solution because he could not even protect himself.
“Don’t let me see you again, or else …”
The leader of the primordial spirit cultivators thought hatefully. It could be said that he had suffered losses in all aspects during the confrontation with Tang Zhen.
He had never encountered such a situation before, so he couldn’t help but feel a sense of frustration.
During the process of observation, he unintentionally met Tang Zhen’s eyes. In the end, he saw the coldness in Tang Zhen’s eyes and the killing intent that he did not hide.
The enmity between the two sides had reached a point where they would not rest until one of them was dead. If there was a chance, they would definitely think of ways to kill the other party!
Other than killing intent, there was also a trace of a smile on Tang Zhen’s face. Only the victor had the qualifications to possess such a smile.
Clearly, Tang Zhen did not flee in a miserable state. Instead, he had shifted his position while he was at it. Moreover, he had even caused the enemy to pay a heavy price before he left.
It could be said that when facing an elemental spirit cultivator, Tang Zhen was completely a proud Victor and not a loser who fled in defeat.
When he realized that the leader of the elemental spirit cultivators was looking at him, Tang Zhen suddenly stretched out his hand and made a contemptuous gesture.
Although the cultural heritage was different, the leader of the elemental spirits could clearly see that Tang Zhen was scolding him.
Looking at the gloomy expression of the leader of the elemental spirit cultivators, Tang Zhen laughed out loud. He felt extremely happy in his heart.
The runic airship in the sky flew above their heads, and then a black shadow fell. It was a long rope.
For a cultivator like Tang Zhen, it was completely possible for him to cross the river on a Reed. Naturally, he could also rely on a rope to return to the runic dirigible.
Tang Zhen’s body leaped up when he saw the rope sweep over his head. He directly grabbed the stone ring on the rope while he was in mid-air.
Stepping on the stone ring, Tang Zhen wrapped his body around the rope and quickly rose up with the rope.
The runic airship had a capstan-like device that could quickly lift the rope and let Tang Zhen return to the runic airship.
Tang Zhen, who was floating in midair, immediately became the focus of attention of all the cultivators on the ground. Their expressions were all different, and no one knew what they were thinking about.
It didn’t take long for Tang Zhen to return to the runic dirigible and see the nervous er Gou.
“Your Excellency, you’re finally back!”
Ergou’s voice was trembling. The runic airship had been struck by lightning and he had almost fainted.
In the end, he was just an ordinary person. He had never seen such a battle before. However, ever since he met Tang Zhen, the things he encountered were more dangerous than the previous ones.
“You’ve done well, thank you for your hard work.”
Tang Zhen nodded his head. No matter what er Gou did, it wasn’t an easy task for him to last until now.
“It’s not hard, hehe hehe hehe.”
Er Gou hurriedly replied. Being able to receive Tang Zhen’s praise made him feel as if he had just eaten honey.
In fact, he had some regrets in his heart. He was unable to go down with Tang Zhen to hunt monsters and verify whether his cultivation was effective or not.
However, this thought only flashed through his mind. He was very clear about his own abilities. He knew that if he entered a group of monsters, it would be no different from actively seeking death.
If you want to live longer, you must understand your own strength and not take risks easily.
Tang Zhen removed the flight suit on his body and walked to the observation platform in front. He raised his head and looked at the sky that was covered with dark clouds.
Due to the influence of the yin energy, the dark clouds in the sky grew thicker and thicker, and lightning would appear out of thin air from time to time.
As it had been struck by lightning several times, it had subconsciously lowered its flying altitude. This way, it could indeed effectively avoid being struck by lightning.
However, from Tang Zhen’s point of view, such a method was not suitable. If he could use this function to kill monsters, wouldn’t it be killing two birds with one stone?
Not only could it charge the runic airship, but it could also be used to kill monsters and enemies. It was simply an excellent ground-fighting weapon that was delivered to the door.
“Get ready, I’m going to continue drawing lightning.”
After hearing Tang Zhen’s words, er Gou was startled. He didn’t want to experience that feeling of making people collapse again.
However, since Tang Zhen had given the order, he had no choice but to agree.
Tang Zhen didn’t pay attention to er Gou. Since he wanted to embark on the path of cultivation, how could he be unable to endure this little bit of pain?
If he really couldn’t take it, then it was better to quit as soon as possible. Otherwise, he would face even more brutal situations in the future.
Tang Zhen walked to the control panel and controlled the runic airship, making it quickly fly towards the dark clouds in the sky.
“BOOM!”
Hearing the dense thunderclaps, ergou was so scared that he trembled, but he forced himself to stand still.
He seemed to have realized that this was the only path he had to take to become a cultivator, and he absolutely couldn’t cower and run away.
As the runic airship continued to approach, the frequency of lightning appearing in the dark clouds became more and more dense. Especially when Tang Zhen took the initiative to activate the energy absorption device, the lightning immediately surged in succession.
The rune airships that were struck by lightning constantly emitted a piercing light, as if they could explode at any time.
Once again, dog two experienced the numbing feeling of collapse. It was as if there were countless ants crawling in his body, but he didn’t know where they were.
This was actually the free energy running around in his body. If ergou became a real cultivator, he could gather and absorb the free energy, and then release it through special means.
Tang Zhen’s expression did not change from the beginning until the end. It was as if he was not affected in the slightest. In fact, this was the case.
He focused his attention on the control panel, and after confirming that it was fully charged, he immediately locked onto a certain position on the ground.
A beam of light shot out from the runic airship and landed on the ground, hitting the ten-thousand head Marshal.
“Aooo!”
arghh! the ten-thousand head Marshal let out a blood-curdling screech. A large area of his body was charred. The eyes of the heads looked up at the sky at the same time, locking onto the runic airship that was floating.
It was a pity that the runic airship was in the air, and it could not attack it at all. It could only let out a depressed roar.
When the leader of the elemental spirit cultivators saw this, his expression changed. He did not expect Tang Zhen to attack the ten-thousand head general instead of him.
This meant that Tang Zhen wanted to kill steal and try to obtain the greatest benefits.
The ten-thousand-head general was also their target. Once it was snatched away by Tang Sanzang, they would have come here for nothing.
The problem was that they were being surrounded by the ten thousand head general and the headless Army. They were already struggling to protect themselves, so how could they kill them?
Tang Zhen’s current actions could even be considered as helping them out of their predicament. As long as they killed the ten thousand head general, all the dangers would be solved.
