Chapter 119: with translation of chapter title
"For a single wolf, you actually disregard life and death!"
Meng Han's face turned grim, and with a kick he sent the shattered shield flying.
He brought down his great blade, about to chop off the head of the Mu Shan Cheng Captain of Hundred.
However, at that moment, a flying sword suddenly shot out from the side and stabbed straight at Meng Han's waist!
Meng Han's expression shifted slightly, and he coldly shouted in surprise,
"Sword cultivator?"
Although swords are not suited for battlefield slaughter, there are certainly those who wield swords on the battlefield.
But these people are far from being true sword cultivators.
Sword cultivators, spear cultivators, and the like are martial practitioners who possess extraordinary talent in this path.
Any sword cultivator's combat power often far exceeds that of martial practitioners of the same realm.
They can even easily instant-kill enemies of the same realm!
Even in Dan Ren Cheng, Meng Han had never seen a single sword cultivator!
This shows how rare sword cultivators are!
That is why Meng Han is so shocked.
Meng Han couldn't gauge the power of this flying sword, dared not be careless, and could only draw his blade to deflect upward.
Bang!
Amid the piercing clang of metal on metal, the flying sword was knocked away.
Meanwhile, Meng Han stared in astonishment at the young man charging from afar.
This flying sword's power is not small, yet it cannot compare to the enemy he had anticipated.
This sword-wielder appears to have at most the strength of a Martial Master.
The person under Meng Han's feet seized the opportunity, rolled, and escaped.
"Thank you, brother, for lending a hand."
The burly man clasped his fists toward the young man and expressed his thanks.
The one who arrived was none other than Gu Chen, who had come to the battlefield a step ahead of Gu Han.
Gu Chen waved at the burly man, pressed his two fingers together, and pointed at Meng Han.
The flying sword that Meng Han had just blasted away traced a long arc in the air and flew toward Meng Han once more.
Meng Han's eyes narrowed, his body lunged forward to grab Gu Chen, but the flying sword forced him to endure incessant annoyance.
This is one of the greatest advantages sword cultivators have over ordinary martial practitioners.
Ordinary martial practitioners can use martial techniques to emit sword glints.
With increased proficiency, or by mastering sword intent, the sword glint can become stronger.
But unlike sword cultivators, they cannot use sword control techniques to attack enemies from hundreds of meters away.
It is said that powerful sword cultivators can even take a person's head with a flying sword from a thousand li away!
And those about to die often do not even know where the flying sword came from!
"This person must not be allowed to return to Ben Lang Guo!"
Meng Han's gaze toward Gu Chen was filled with killing intent,
"Otherwise, he will surely become a grave internal threat to my Jian Chi State!"
He let out a low shout, swept the flying sword aside with his blade, and then took out a signal talisman.
The explosion of the signal talisman immediately attracted the nearby Dutongs, who came together to besiege Gu Chen.
"Everyone, retreat quickly!"
Gu Chen hurriedly issued orders to the officers of Mu Shan Cheng.
Although he wore only the most basic military uniform.
Yet at this moment even the Captains of Hundred chose to follow Gu Chen's arrangements.
Little Wolf shook his head, split into three, and slashed the Moon-Water Blade at the Jian Chi State Dutongs.
But this Moon-Water Blade, which poses a great threat to Martial Masters,
for the Jian Chi State Dutongs merely hinders their encircling steps.
After one Dutong approached, he directed his subordinates to begin blocking Gu Chen and company, then loudly shouted at Meng Han,
"Old Meng, what did you call us over for?"
The other few Dutongs, though silent, also looked inquiring.
Meng Han immediately replied in an urgent voice,
"In the Mu Shan Cheng army there is a young sword cultivator; today he must not be allowed to escape!"
Upon hearing this, the four Dutongs all began to breathe rapidly.
"Sword cultivator, that is an extremely distant term!"
"It's a pity this person cannot be used by my Jian Chi State."
"If so, then kill him, lest he become a internal threat to our state!"
The five immediately dispersed, taking their troops and together surrounded Gu Chen's unit.
Although Gu Chen and company had already begun to retreat, being few and weak, they still could not break through.
"Alas."
Jian Lao's voice echoed faintly in Gu Chen's ear,
"Little Chen, I've told you countless times not to expose your sword cultivator identity, or disaster will surely follow!"
"It's just that you refuse to listen to me."
Gu Chen gave a light smile,
"Isn't Jian Lao here?"
Hearing Gu Chen's rare praise, Jian Lao in the sword-shaped pendant snapped,
"Good Thing, I don't get a share, but when you're risking your life you suddenly think of me?"
Gu Chen gave a hehe laugh, controlling his flying sword to continuously slay the surrounding Saber-Toothed Army.
Under Gu Chen's sword intent, the flying sword was razor-sharp.
Wherever it passed, armor was flattened, blood gushed like a spring!
Wave after wave of miserable cries rang out.
Whether martial practitioner, martial master, or two- or three-star Saber-Toothed Pig, none could survive under Gu Chen's flying sword.
Even a martial master with vigorous vitality was only a difference of one or two swords.
Gu Chen controlled his flying sword, covering the retreat of everyone and Little Wolf.
"They're all a bunch of trash!"
A Dutong let out a low roar, stamped his right foot and charged forward first.
His long spear whistled like the wind, wrapped in terrifying force as it thrust toward Gu Chen!
"Be careful!"
The officers of Mu Shan Cheng knew that Gu Chen was their guarantee of survival.
In the eyes of some, Gu Chen's survival was even more important than their own!
They raised shields or brandished blades to block the Saber-Toothed Army Dutong.
However, several other Saber-Toothed Army Dutongs also stepped forward, and in a single exchange they made these people vomit blood and fly backward.
The officers of Mu Shan Cheng are now too scattered.
Although they had organized a counterattack, there was no Great Martial Master nearby.
Seeing everyone collapse, Gu Chen, blazing with rage, immediately intended to let Jian Lao control his body.
But just then, a familiar voice suddenly rang out.
"Everyone, get down on the ground!"
Gu Chen's eyes lit up instantly.
He instantly recognized it as Gu Han's voice.
Little Wolf is here, so Gu Han naturally is too!
Gu Chen had no doubt about Gu Han, and immediately let out an angry roar,
"Everyone, get down!"
The other Mu Shan Cheng soldiers didn't know what was happening.
But now they also regarded Gu Chen as their pillar.
Upon hearing Gu Chen's shout, they scrambled to crawl down.
At the same time, a fiery red stone was thrown from afar.
Immediately after, a crisp cracking sound rang out in the crowd.
Boom!
In the shocked gaze of Meng Han and the others.
Scorching blazing flames suddenly appeared, and in an instant turned into a terrifying sea of fire spreading over a hundred meters!
Sizzle!
Blazing flames, burning the heavens and scorching the earth!
Flames rose, and all the Saber-Toothed Pigs and Saber-Toothed Army soldiers were engulfed in blazing flames.
Countless Saber-Toothed Pigs struggled and screamed, and even the effect of the Bewildering Bell dissipated somewhat.
Including Meng Han, several Dutongs underwent drastic changes in complexion, barely retreating to avoid the sea of fire's range.
Hundreds of Saber-Toothed Army troops turned to ashes in an instant within the sea of fire!
This was precisely the terrifying sea of fire erupted from the Earth Flame Stone that Gu Han had previously obtained.
And under Gu Han's control, the sea of fire hovered above, perfectly avoiding Gu Chen and the others who had lain down in advance.
