MMORPG: War God, You are Invincible Again-Chapter 1289 - 266: Duo Rentu Emerges from Seclusion
The power of a single sword annihilated all the warriors of the Gold Family at the Martial King level, leaving everyone in the Gold Family temporarily unable to think.
However, they would never have a chance to regain their ability to think, because the overwhelming wave of blood had already surged downward, tearing open the city tower like a bloodthirsty giant mouth, devouring everything. 𝑓𝘳𝑒𝑒𝓌𝘦𝘣𝘯ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝑚
"Massacre the city!"
With Lu Hong’s command, thirty thousand of the Divine Might Army began their charge, flooding into Jin’an City, slaughtering everything.
Seven days later, the news of Jin’an City’s destruction exploded in the Western Battle Zone.
In just half a month, the Photon City Lord, leading his army into the Western Battle Zone, had annihilated two major cities consecutively. Damn it, how many suburbs are left in the Western Battle Zone? Only two, controlled respectively by the Yan Family and the Fan Gu Family.
As for the suburb, a small place without even a Martial Arts Sect, such suburbs were not involved in the previous conspiracy against the Qin Long Guards, so Lu Hong didn’t bother with them.
Among the four major suburbs in the Western Battle Zone, and the five big families, two suburbs and two families had directly disappeared from the Rongtian Domain’s map.
This shock was spreading not only within the Western Battle Zone; other battle zones, upon receiving the news, were also taken aback, constantly dispatching scouts to verify the truth of the situation.
The annihilation of the two families made the Duo Family finally take Lu Hong from Photon City seriously.
The current Family Head of the Duo Family entered the Human Slaughter Valley, knocking on the cave door where Duo Rentu was in seclusion.
"Didn’t I say, no matter what happens, do not disturb me!" Duo Rentu’s tone seemed to suppress anger, and it was clear that Duo Rentu had guessed it was the arrival of the current Family Head of the Duo Family; otherwise, he might have started cursing outright.
"Three-blade Ancestor, I didn’t mean to disturb you, but... something big has happened outside, and I have to seek your assistance."
As the Family Head of the Duo Family finished speaking, the cave door where Duo Rentu was in seclusion blasted open, and the rampant spiritual energy rushed out of the cave, directly flipping over the current Family Head of the Duo Family, a late-stage Martial Arts Sect powerhouse.
Feeling the surge of overwhelming spiritual energy, the flipped-over Duo Family Head was not dissatisfied; instead, he was excitedly delighted: "Three-blade Ancestor, have you... have you achieved great success in spiritual cultivation?!"
Moments later, a skinny figure walked out of the cave; the formerly aging body, nourished by spiritual energy, seemed revitalized, showing significant changes from its previously elderly state, making Duo Rentu look much younger than before.
At this moment, Duo Rentu stood with a serious expression, looking at the fallen Duo Family Head: "Family Head, what exactly has happened to make you so panicked?"
"Three-blade Ancestor, Photon City’s retribution has arrived!"
Upon hearing this, Duo Rentu said displeasedly: "If they’ve come, they’ve come. Kill their people, seize their Secret Technique, if Photon City doesn’t come for retribution, I would have overestimated them. Just a mere Photon City, could it really stand against the five big families of the Western Battle Zone?"
In response, the Family Head of the Duo Family could only muster a bitter smile: "I’m afraid it’s really like that. The Photon City Lord, leading an army of thirty thousand elite soldiers, entered the Western Battle Zone and on the third day massacred Lai’an City; the Baer Family of Lai’an City was annihilated. In just seven days, Jin’an City was similarly slaughtered, and the city was washed in blood, with the Gold Family being directly wiped out. The five big families of the Western Battle Zone, which had stood for thousands of years, saw two families annihilated in just over ten days. The remaining Yan Family and Fan Gu Family aren’t much stronger than the Gold Family. I’m afraid they won’t be able to stop Photon City’s methods either. Hence, I have no choice but to ask the Three-blade Ancestor for your aid; otherwise, my Duo Family may also find it difficult to resist Photon City’s retribution."
After listening to the Duo Family Head’s explanation, Duo Rentu’s brows furrowed even tighter. He had never taken Lu Hong, the Photon City Lord, too seriously, but now it seemed that the opponent’s strength exceeded the imagination of all the strong figures in the Western Battle Zone.
"I understand. Where is the Photon City Lord now?" Addicted to spirit cultivation, Duo Rentu only wanted to resolve the trouble quickly and then retreat back to his cultivation, poised to break through the Martial Emperor Realm, only a step away.
"According to reports from scouts, the Photon City army is currently stationed a hundred miles outside Yan’an City and has been resting for two days. They are probably preparing to attack the Yan Family shortly."
Upon hearing these remarks, Duo Rentu said nothing further, leaping directly towards Yan’an City at great speed.
At the same time, Lu Hong was in the barracks teaching the thirty thousand soldiers of the Divine Might Army to practice mastering the Bloodthirst skill. This Bloodthirst is the super classic skill of the Angry Blood Warrior, a grand killing tool on the battlefield, but its negative effects are equally apparent.
This time, slaughtering Jin’an City empty was also an exercise for them to improve their mastery of Bloodthirst. Over these past few days, negative emotions continually filled the minds of the soldiers in the Blood-colored Divine Might Army, their eyes red with killing intent, striving to restrain their urge to slaughter.
If it weren’t for Lu Hong being present, this group of soldiers who had just begun to master Bloodthirst would have probably erupted into a fierce internal strife, ending up dead by their own hands.
"Calm your heart, adjust your breathing, learn to adapt to this state, don’t just resist these emotions. Bloodthirst means allowing yourself to fall into a demonic path, but the most important thing is to maintain a sliver of rationality and clarity. What you need to train next is this ability. Once you can resist the influence of these negative emotions on you, your strength will advance to a higher level. The thirty thousand Divine Might Army, never mind a hundred thousand, a million, or ten million troops, can conquer!"
With Lu Hong’s patient guidance, each soldier of the Divine Might Army was supported, growing bit by bit under the impact of the Bloodthirst’s negative emotions.
Initially, Lu Hong had not planned to teach these soldiers the Bloodthirst skill, but during regular training, he spared no secrets of the professional skills of the Angry Blood Warrior, providing the Divine Might Army with a full explanation.
Therefore, the Divine Might Army had a strong desire for the ultra-powerful skill Bloodthirst, highly praised by Lu Hong.
During this expedition to the Western Battle Zone, the soldiers of the Divine Might Army also expressed their request to Lu Hong.
Only then did Lu Hong decide to impart the Bloodthirst skill.
After each city massacre, Lu Hong would lead the Divine Might Army to temper their will against the invasion of Bloodthirst’s negative emotions.
Another three days passed, and the soldiers of the Divine Might Army withdrew from the Bloodthirst state, each looking exhausted, starting to meditate or rest to adjust their state.
Lu Hong sat in the makeshift military camp, absorbing spiritual energy to temper himself while also releasing his senses, on guard for any sudden attacks.
Suddenly, a powerful aura entered Lu Hong’s range of perception.
Lu Hong opened his eyes and saw a meteor, creating sparks as it collided with the air at high speed, rushing toward the temporary military camp of Photon City.
It seemed that the other party wasn’t very familiar with flying; it’s highly likely they wouldn’t be able to stop before reaching the camp.
Without hesitation, Lu Hong launched a punch, concentrating his own spiritual energy to blast out a massive air cannon.
In the blink of an eye, the air cannon struck the meteor, stopping it in its tracks and causing it to crash to the ground.
Duo Rentu shook his slightly dizzy head, his face full of excitement.
This was his first time using spiritual energy to assist flying; the result was surprisingly good, at least twice the speed of his previous method using blood energy. However, he needed more practice with this flying method and technique since not being able to stop was quite embarrassing!
Just as Duo Rentu stood up and looked at the Photon City camp, Lu Hong’s figure also came into Duo Rentu’s view.
Sensing the surging spiritual power emanating from Lu Hong, Duo Rentu narrowed his eyes slightly and spoke: "Are you the Photon City Lord, Lu Hong?"
"Are you Duo Sandao?" Lu Hong had clearly gathered information from other channels about this notorious figure of the Western Battle Zone.
In response, Duo Rentu grinned: "I still prefer others to call me Human Butcher."
Upon hearing this, Lu Hong raised an eyebrow: "You’ve killed a few people and consider yourself a human butcher? Isn’t that thinking too highly of yourself?"
Not to brag, but although the Dark Continent is large, it’s actually pretty average in terms of environment; there wasn’t even any spiritual energy a decade ago, which considerably limited population growth and development. The twelve main cities of the Dark Continent would only be equivalent to the scale of about seven or eight Eagle Alliances in the Star Sea. There’s been fighting, sure, but not on the epic scale of dozens or hundreds of planes like back in the Star Sea, let alone the world wars between families in the Nine Domains.
