Chapter 358

Only one young General Star in the entire Eastern Military Region can reach this level!

That is Lu Jing, who recently succeeded in becoming a certified General Star!

It must be him, and only him......

Wen Yuanwei murmured.

I had long heard that Commander Xiahou Jie of the Eastern Military Region had produced an unparalleled General Star; seeing him today......

Although his Blood Qi hasn't reached the Martial Marquis Realm, he can actually unleash the combat power of a Martial Lord Realm!

If the military can secure this talent, in a hundred years we might gain another Martial God!

……

Half an hour later.

Another small battlefield.

Damn, it's actually a Void Beast!

Isn't this thing only supposed to appear in Caves of rank A or higher?

Don't panic, we have a Talent Endowed with mental abilities!

On the high wall, the soldiers saw the Void Beasts surging like a tide, and their scalps went numb.

Where's Fang Zhan? He isn't a mental Talent Endowed? Let him handle it!

An officer shouted toward those behind him.

Yet Fang Zhan's figure was long absent.

After a while, a soldier ran over and said, "Sir, Fang Zhan says there are too many Void Beasts; he can't deal with them......"

Can't deal with them?

The officer furrowed his brows, "Everyone says mental Talent Endowed are the bane of Void Beasts; why can't Fang Zhan? Bring him over!"

The soldier nodded and left, soon dragging over a somewhat thin youth.

Sir, the person is brought!

The officer looked at Fang Zhan, whose face showed utter hopelessness, and asked, "How many can you handle?"

Ten...... a dozen or so.

Fang Zhan whispered.

He stared at the Void Beasts beneath the wall, his heart pounding, feeling utter despair.

What, a dozen or so, you're joking with me?!

The officer snorted and glared; the hope he had just seen plunged his heart back into the abyss.

Boss, I'm only a second-realm Talent Endowed......

Fang Zhan explained.

He had just graduated from the Martial University, and upon arriving at the military region he was assigned to the front lines.

With his strength as a second-realm Talent Endowed, even if he sacrificed his life he could at most kill a dozen or so.

Sigh, I hope headquarters can see our distress signal and send reinforcements in time!

The officer stopped pressing Fang Zhan and let out a long sigh.

The next moment, he thrust his arms up and shouted loudly.

Brothers, swear to defend the line to the death; if wounded by the Void Beasts, better to die honorably than let these monsters assimilate us—even in death, we must not burden our own!

Following the officer's shout, the top of the wall fell into a brief silence.

In the next instant, everyone roared loudly: "Swear to defend the line to the death!"

Twenty minutes later.

The Void Beasts' advance could no longer be halted; fewer than half of the soldiers still holding the wall remained.

Just as everyone felt the resolve to die.

Whoosh——

Accompanied by the sound of a dark current surging, walls of water ten zhang high appeared from all directions of the battlefield, rushing toward the Void Beasts.

Instantly, a hissing sound of corrosion continued.

The seemingly ferocious Void Beasts, upon encountering this water wall, were like ghosts touching the scorching sun; their bodies melted at a visible speed!

Look quickly!

Holy shit......

The soldiers fighting on the high wall first froze for a second, then instantly came to their senses.

It's General Star Lu Jing!

Yes, only General Star Lu Jing can do that!

He is indeed the bane of Void Beasts!

What Void Beast bane, what are you talking about?

Someone wore a look of confusion, having never even heard the name Lu Jing.

You don't know there's a newly certified Level 9 General Star? He excels at mental power attacks, once single-handedly killing a lord-rank mental aberrant beast!

There's such a thing! Then aren't we saved?!

Before the words of those few had even faded, the dense swarm of Void Beasts beneath the wall had already vanished without a trace.

The surging mental-power water wall likewise dissipated.

Only a devastated tract of land remained, proof of how fierce the battle had been.

About five or six seconds passed.

Lord Lu!

"Lord Lu!"

After a brief silence, came a fierce cheer.

The surviving soldiers involuntarily raised their arms and shouted; inside their chests burned a raging flame, about to burst forth uncontrollably.

"Lord Lu! Lord Lu!"

Wave after wave of sky-shaking roars echoed across the entire battlefield.

And Lu Jing, who had done all this, did not stop for even a second.

His figure vanished again, rushing to the next battlefield.

Thus, Lu Jing, as captain of the General Star squad, took on many missions, frequently active on the front lines of the battlefield.

Gradually, Lu Jing's name came to be remembered by more and more people.

In the end, almost half of the soldiers in the Eastern Military Region knew that the Third Sub-Region had a General Star named Lu Jing.

Moreover, he acquired many more epithets.

For example, Lu God, Demon King, Heavenly Disaster, etc...

The reason for these epithets is that Lu Jing's attack methods are mostly world-shattering; a single punch seems to bring down a heavenly disaster.

Moreover, Lu Jing's means vary each time: sometimes mental power erosion, sometimes the Void Bright Realm's overwhelming suppression, sometimes Blade Intent running rampant, sometimes an endless sea of thunder...

But the same is true: whenever Lu Jing appears on the battlefield, he is regarded as a savior.

Even if the situation is extremely difficult, he can still accomplish a heaven-defying reversal!

In the relentless high-intensity missions, half a month passed quickly.

Inside the villa of the Eastern Military Region headquarters, Lu Jing slowly opened his eyes.

"Hah, the red crystal chunks have been gathered almost enough; finally I can rest properly for a while..."

Lu Jing murmured.

He lay spread-eagle on the bed, feeling the softness of the blankets.

Only when the sun was high three poles did Lu Jing get up from the bed.

A slight stir of his mental power, and the door locked tight.

The Thousand-Blade Demon Sword hovered before his eyes.

"Come on, let's see what new changes come after enhancing it to +10."

Lu Jing placed the Thousand-Blade Demon Sword into the enhancement slot.

The description of the Thousand-Blade Demon Sword appeared below the enhancement slot.

【Weapon: Thousand-Blade Demon Sword+9】: Produced by the Assassin World, attack-only, peerless under heaven, a national treasure of the Divine Forging State...

【Enhance +9】: Sharpness increased by 90%; upon enhancement to level ten, there will be new changes.

【Plunder·Demon Blade (new effect)】: After slaying an enemy with the Thousand-Blade Demon Sword, one can deprive the enemy of their talent ability, sealing it into the sword; the sealed ability can be used once.

【Enhancing this item requires consuming 100 red crystal chunks and 1,200,000 gold; continue?】

"After exhausting myself slaughtering for half a month, I managed to collect over five hundred red crystal chunks..."

"Enhance!"

Lu Jing took a deep breath and directly tapped the enhancement button.

The next moment, steam burst from the enhancement slot.

"Ping-ping...... pang-pang!"

Mechanical knocking sounds came.

It seemed as if an invisible iron hammer was forging the Thousand-Blade Demon Sword.

One minute later, the steam in the enhancement slot dissipated, and the Thousand-Blade Demon Sword appeared before his eyes.
