Chapter 167: Sudden Attack

“Careful!”

It was unknown who yelled out the warning . Immediately after, countless attacks began to be unleashed .

They couldn’t see anything, but it didn’t matter . As long as they unleashed attacks at their surroundings, that would be good enough .

Waves of Origin Energy surged like a tide, charging forth vigorously . Immediately after, the sky was filled with pained roars . No one knew how many Vicious Beasts were charging in their direction .

But based on the sound, it didn’t seem like they were low in number .

At this moment, Cloud Leopard’s warnings were of no use because the Vicious Beasts were everywhere .

Wang Doushan’s expression shifted . “Dammit, what’s with these Vicious Beasts? Could they be cooperating with the Origin Formations?”

“I don’t know either!” Wei Yang yelled . “That shouldn’t be the case!”

“Forget about whether it should be happening or not; we have a battle to fight! Protect Ruoyu, Zhao Xin, and the others!” Su Chen growled .

Strengthened Erupting Firehawk after Strengthened Erupting Firehawk began to take shape .

Even though he couldn’t see, his ears were extremely perceptive . He could clearly tell where the Vicious Beasts were the most concentrated . Then, he waved his hand; the Firehawk soared forth, disappearing into the fog before slamming into something, inciting howls of pain and rage .

After entering the Blood Boiling Realm, his strength had greatly increased, as did the explosiveness of the Erupting Firehawk . He could unleash a cast of Strengthened Erupting Firehawks, and their power wasn’t small in the slightest . They had instantly killed who knew how many Vicious Beasts within the fog .

But an instant later, he heard Han Linxia yell from beside him, “AH!”

Su Chen instantly determined Han Linxia’s position and charged over to her, only to find a fierce armored beast snapping at her . He didn’t have time to figure out exactly what it was before he sent a fist out .

Armor-Piercing Awl!

A single strike was enough to explode its head .

After entering the Blood Boiling Realm, Su Chen expended a lot less Blood Qi when activating the Armor-Piercing Awl . Even though he couldn’t casually throw it out like any other move, he could use it at least ten times consecutively without much issue .

After the strike blew open the Vicious Beast’s head, Su Chen yelled, “Don’t make any rash decisions . Everyone, get into a tight circle . Anyone with a student number under thirty stays in the middle . Move, NOW!”

“Quick, assume defensive positions! Don’t let those Vicious Beasts get close!” He Yuandong yelled .

Their extensive training period paid off at this moment . The students began to find each other in the fog and link up, relying on their yells and their limited vision to form an outer perimeter . The students with numbers less than thirty were all kept inside of that perimeter . Even as they were being protected, they took what opportunities were available to unleash attacks of their own .

It was hard to tell how many Vicious Beasts there were within the fog, but not a single student had tried to retreat or escape yet . Rather, they began to demonstrate their own strengths .

“Dammit, looks like I’ll have to really put some effort into it,” Pi Yuanhong cursed before unleashing a palm strike towards the ground . “Open!”

Countless stone spikes emerged from the ground .

Splat! Splat! Splat!

The Vicious Beasts skewered themselves like kebabs on the stone spikes, showering the students with blood .

At the same time, He Yuandong punched out at the sky .

His fists boomed through the air, sending scorching flames in all directions like a boundless, majestic sea of flames . Who knew how many Vicious Beasts ran headfirst into this inferno, instantly filling the air with the fragrance of cooked meat .

Even so, his attacks weren’t the most powerful .

The most powerful attacks came from Tang Ming .

This guy, who possessed a Demonic Emperor Bloodline, probably cared the least about fighting in the fog .

That was because his battle style naturally made use of fog .

As he clawed through the air, the dense fog gathered around his hands, assuming the form of little fog dragons as they whistled through the air . They leapt at the Vicious Beasts, instantly garroting many of them to death .

Simple, effective, efficient!

“Tang Ming, do you think you’ll be able to absorb all of the fog here or at least direct it somewhere else?” Qi Weiyan asked loudly .

“I won’t be able to do that!” Tang Ming replied . “Even though I can control the fog, it seems endless . Every time I absorb a bit, more just comes to take its place . There’s no point in trying to banish it!”

“Ma Xuan, think of a way to neutralize this Origin Formation . It’s an Illusion Formation, so it should fall under your purview!” Su Chen yelled .

Ma Xuan replied bitterly, “I can’t! This is Heyser Fog . It doesn’t actually affect a person’s consciousness . Calling it an Illusion Formation is stretching it a bit . ”

“I don’t care; you need to think of some way to dissolve it!” He Yuandong said harshly .

If the fog continued like this, everyone would be in serious danger .

It felt pretty good to unleash attacks at their surroundings indiscriminately, but it also expended a huge amount of energy and was definitely unsustainable . Once they ran out of Origin Energy, they could only rely on their physical strength to do battle .

“I’m doing my best!” Ma Xuan and Jiang Hanfeng were hurriedly constructing an Origin Formation, trying to use it to cancel out the Heyser Fog’s disruption . “You guys will need to hold on for some more time . ”

“Leave it to me . ” Su Chen pulled out a few Thunderfire Balls from his Origin Ring .

Just like the medicine, Su Chen had crafted these Thunderfire Balls with the ingredients he had brought . However, the cost of the raw materials was even lower because some parts of the device could be constructed out of everyday living items . For instance, Su Chen had made the metal casing of the Thunderfire Balls out of a pile of metal pots and pans .

It really was quite an ingenious way to use them .

In comparison to the previous Thunderfire Balls, the current edition’s power output had increased somewhat . Su Chen tossed them out, resulting in a number of fiery explosions .

The scent of charred meat in the air grew even stronger .

Even so, the Vicious Beasts continued to pounce unrelentingly . They weren’t particularly powerful, and most of them were low-tier Vicious Beasts . However, their temperaments were much wilder than usual, charging out of the fog like assassins . After quickly arriving near everyone, they opened their bloody mouths and bit down on their opponents .

“Faster! We’re almost unable to hold on!”

Feng Yigu blasted away a Vicious Beast pouncing at him, simultaneously kicking away one that had gone for his legs . However, another Vicious Beast bit his arm . Even though Feng Yigu shattered its skull an instant later, blood began to flow from his wounds .

“Just hold on for a bit longer!” Jiang Hanfeng yelled as he hurriedly continued to assemble the formation .

Whoosh!

A Vicious Beast suddenly jumped over everyone’s heads, going for Jiang Hanfeng .

At this moment, Jiang Hanfeng was completely focused on the Origin Formation in front of him . He didn’t sense it at all until the beast was right on top of him, but it was already too late .

The beast’s claws were about to sink into Jiang Hanfeng’s eyes . Jiang Hanfeng could only watch, completely in shock .

Just at that moment, the Vicious Beast suddenly froze in midair, just like that .

Then, that Vicious Beast was forcibly moved aside . Su Chen was standing right behind it .

He carelessly twisted the Vicious Beast’s neck and said, “Focus on your task . ”

“Yes!” Jiang Hanfeng was startled out of his reverie as he returned to his work .

Su Chen tossed aside the Vicious Beast, then turned around to glance in the direction of the fog, a cold chill emanating from his gaze . He knew that if he didn’t pull out something here, they might not be able to make it out unscathed .

He reached out with his right hand . A massive firehawk began to gather in Su Chen’s hands .

This firehawk was much larger than any of the firehawks Su Chen had unleashed before . Dense, fiery Origin Energy swirled around his body, the power from the flames driving away the fog from around him . Su Chen’s figure appeared in front of everyone .

This Ultra Firehawk was so massive and bright that it attracted the attention of every living being present, human or otherwise, as soon as it appeared . The flames surged, seemingly burning to the sky .

Su Chen pushed the Ultra Firehawk out and said, “Go!”

“Eeeee!” The Ultra Firehawk let out a shrill cry as it soared through the air and then flapped its wings, taking flight . It left behind a trail of flames in its wake as it slammed into a Vicious Beast . That Vicious Beast was instantly incinerated . The Ultra Firehawk, however, didn’t disintegrate; rather, it continued advancing, slamming into another Vicious Beast . After incinerating that one, it then attacked another Vicious Beast . This time, it couldn’t incinerate the Vicious Beast immediately . Instead, it exploded with a dazzling brilliance and unleashed a shocking amount of energy, killing that beast and sending the surrounding beasts flying .

This one strike wiped out three Vicious Beasts and had wounded many more with the explosion . Everyone was dumbfounded .

Even the Vicious Beasts were stunned . After being hit by such an overwhelming attack, none of them were willing to pounce for some time .

“Blood Boiling Realm!” He Yuandong muttered to himself .

He could never have expected that Su Chen’s strength would increase to such a degree after reaching the Blood Boiling Realm . Most importantly, he had already developed a move worthy of a Blood Boiling Realm Origin Qi Scholar after such a short period of time .

Even though he was building off of a preexisting foundation, this was already incredibly impressive . Su Chen truly was a genius in every sense of the word .

With this Ultra Firehawk, Su Chen really could be considered a bona fide Blood Boiling Realm cultivator now .

Su Chen……

He really was too scary!

This thought surfaced in everyone’s heart .

At the same time, they thought to themselves, Thank goodness he’s our ally, not our enemy .

Su Chen himself, however, wasn’t too happy with it . This Ultra Erupting Firehawk was still pretty new, so it still had plenty of flaws . It wasn’t nearly polished enough, so it could only be used under certain circumstances . It might be okay to use as an opening gambit, but it wasn’t suitable for continual use yet .

“Success!”

Jiang Hanfeng suddenly yelled .

As he yelled, a brilliant light suddenly began to shine . Under the shining light, the dense fog began to melt like frost before it completely disappeared .

Without the protection of the fog, all of the Vicious Beasts automatically retreated .

The place, which had just been the location of a fierce battle, instantly became calm again .
