Chapter 205: Slaughter 2
Among the intruders in the Ancient Tomb this time, the transformed Abe Seimei possessed the greatest strength; his physical combat power was already comparable to a Fourth Grade Martial Artist.
Fourth Grade is a watershed; once one reaches Fourth Grade, combat power increases significantly.
For a Fourth Grade Lower-tier Martial Artist to fight three or four Third Grade High Stage Martial Artists is as easy as Zhang Fei eating bean sprouts—a piece of cake.
Moreover, an Onmyoji also knows strange arts; calculating it this way, Abe Seimei is a dual cultivator of Dao and martial arts, with very formidable combat power that cannot be underestimated.
Through the Array Disk, Meng Yifan mobilized three types of exotic beasts—Berserk Rats, Five-Colored Poisonous Snakes, and Ghost-Faced Spiders—to attack Abe Seimei and Oyama Masutatsu simultaneously.
Abe Seimei looked frantic; watching the swarms of exotic beasts surging toward him, he felt no fear and shouted loudly in that mixed male-and-female voice: "Someone is presiding over the Array; is that you, Zhang Sanfeng? Haha, the seniors should all be rioting, yet you actually dare to be distracted by presiding over the Array at a time like this; you are truly courting death."
"Zhang Sanfeng, relying only on these exotic beasts won't stop me. If you have the guts, come out and fight me."
"Haha, you don't dare; you still have to suppress the Earth Cave. Zhang Sanfeng, you sealed them for eighty years, but in reality, you helped them, allowing them to fuse with the Geng Metal Evil Qi and their strength to advance by leaps and bounds. Haha, I thank you on their behalf."
Abe Seimei gripped the White Bone Blade and charged toward the exotic beasts; as the blade light flickered, one Berserk Rat after another was hacked into pieces.
There were too many Berserk Rats, numbering one or two thousand, like an endless flowing river; the Berserk Rats in front were hacked to death, and the ones behind rushed up again.
The Berserk Rats had a pair of one-foot-long incisors that could easily bite through rock; some Berserk Rats bit onto Abe Seimei, but they could only break a little skin, and then Abe Seimei's body shook, his knotted muscles trembling like bowstrings, and the sturdy incisors of these Berserk Rats were snapped directly.
"Haha, it's useless; you can't stop me." Abe Seimei was like a tank, charging head-on into the rat army, constantly reaping the lives of the Berserk Rats.
While Abe Seimei was battling the Berserk Rats, Meng Yifan directed the Ghost-Faced Spiders and Five-Colored Poisonous Snakes to launch an attack as well.
"Whoosh!" Two spider webs, each over two meters long and wide, descended from the sky and directly enveloped Oyama Masutatsu.
Oyama Masutatsu was greatly shocked and struggled desperately, wanting to escape the webs, but those webs were extremely resilient and carried strong stickiness; even though Oyama Masutatsu was a First Grade Martial Artist, using all his strength and mobilizing his True Qi, he could only barely break free from a little of the restraint.
"Hiss hiss!" Three Five-Colored Poisonous Snakes shot out, biting Oyama Masutatsu on the neck, chest, and thigh respectively.
Oyama Masutatsu wanted to dodge, but his body was stuck by the spider webs and he couldn't dodge at all; he could only watch helplessly as the Five-Colored Poisonous Snakes bit into his body.
Oyama Masutatsu mobilized his True Qi to strengthen his skin's defense; if they were ordinary poisonous snakes, they might not have been able to break his defense, but unfortunately, these Five-Colored Poisonous Snakes were exotic beasts with very sharp fangs, directly biting through Oyama Masutatsu's skin and injecting the five-colored toxin into his body.
The toxin spread rapidly; after a few breaths, Oyama Masutatsu's body became multicolored, as if coated with a layer of camouflage.
Oyama Masutatsu died, and then the Berserk Rats, Five-Colored Poisonous Snakes, and Ghost-Faced Spiders besieged Abe Seimei with all their might.
The Berserk Rats were fearless, wave after wave, blocking Abe Seimei's path from the front, while the Ghost-Faced Spiders also continuously spat out spider webs, trying to bind Abe Seimei's hands and feet.
"Useless." Abe Seimei possessed immense strength; he grabbed the spider webs and tore them apart casually, and the webs that Oyama Masutatsu couldn't break free from even with all his might were torn to shreds by Abe Seimei with ease.
Meng Yifan used the Array Disk to control the Ghost-Faced Spiders to crawl all over the ceiling of the Ancient Tomb, then seized the opportunity to spit out spider webs simultaneously; these spider webs continuously overlapped in mid-air, sticking to each other to become thick webs, which then enveloped Abe Seimei's body.
"Eh!" Abe Seimei was trapped for a moment; he discovered that after these white spider webs overlapped, they became very tough, and even he had to use force to break free.
"Hehe, it's useful." Meng Yifan controlled the Ghost-Faced Spiders to continue weaving webs, overlapping them to bind Abe Seimei, and then, taking advantage of the moment Abe Seimei was bound, the Five-Colored Poisonous Snakes took the opportunity to sneak an attack, their sharp fangs biting into him; although they could only barely break the skin, it was enough to inject the toxin into his body.
A little toxin from the Five-Colored Poisonous Snakes did not have much effect on Abe Seimei and could be easily expelled from his body, but there were many Five-Colored Poisonous Snakes; if more and more toxin were injected, accumulating over time, Abe Seimei would also find it uncomfortable.
"Whoosh!" Another layer of overlapping spider webs flew over; Abe Seimei dared not resist it head-on and swung the White Bone Blade in his hand violently.
"Swish!" The spider web was split in two by the White Bone Blade and could not bind Abe Seimei's body.
Abe Seimei wanted to enter the depths of the tomb as soon as possible, but the Berserk Rats rushed up without fear; even though they suffered heavy casualties, they insisted on blocking him, which made him somewhat annoyed.
Could it be that he really had to slaughter all the Berserk Rats, Five-Colored Poisonous Snakes, and Ghost-Faced Spiders before he could rush in?
"Zhang Sanfeng must know that relying only on these exotic beasts can only delay my pace and cannot defeat me at all, but why does he still let these exotic beasts die in vain? Is he struggling in his death throes, stalling for time? But what is the use of this? I can't wait any longer; I must rush in as soon as possible, kill Zhang Sanfeng, and rescue the trapped seniors."
Thinking of this, Abe Seimei no longer hesitated; his right hand continuously brandished the White Bone Blade to slaughter the blocking Berserk Rats, while his left hand took a pink fan out from his bosom.
After the fan was opened, a fragrant scent wafted out, and it was painted with blooming cherry blossoms; Abe Seimei waved his left hand, and the fan fanned toward the Berserk Rats.
A fragrant breeze stirred, and cherry blossom after cherry blossom flew out from the fan; in the dim Ancient Tomb, it was like a shower of cherry blossoms in full bloom, looking magnificent and pleasing to the eye.
The pink cherry blossoms drifted into the eyes of the Berserk Rats and then strangely melted into them; in an instant, the eyes of the Berserk Rats turned pink, and immediately after, these Berserk Rats turned their heads and launched attacks on the other Berserk Rats.
Meng Yifan saw this scene through the Array Disk and was also secretly shocked; he had not expected that Abe Seimei's art was actually of the control type, capable of controlling the Berserk Rats on a large scale, causing chaos within the rat army and leading them to kill each other.
Abe Seimei wanted to take the opportunity to break through the blockade and rush into the depths of the tomb, but those Five-Colored Poisonous Snakes and Ghost-Faced Spiders came to block him again, and he could only continue to wave the Sakura Fan, with cherry blossoms blooming and once again confusing a group of Five-Colored Poisonous Snakes and Ghost-Faced Spiders.
Unfortunately, this Sakura Fan could control at most five hundred exotic beasts, while there were over two thousand Berserk Rats, over eight hundred Five-Colored Poisonous Snakes, and over one thousand Ghost-Faced Spiders in the tomb; Abe Seimei could only control a portion of the exotic beasts and could not control all of them.
However, with the help of the five hundred exotic beasts, Abe Seimei's speed of advance accelerated greatly; this army of exotic beasts would not be able to block him for much longer.
