Chapter 3: The Momentum of the Barbarian Elephant

  Welcome everyone to go to the book review area to give opinions and speak freely.

  Living in the desolate ancient forest, there is no benevolent beast. Every lower-ranking desolate beast grows up by trampling on countless corpses.

  The mammoth giant elephant did not intend to let go of these six human tribes who disturbed its sleep. In its view, the blood food delivered to its doorstep would be a stain on its life if it were to let them escape.

  The ground shook, and a massive dark green elephant body approached from behind. At this moment, the difference in cultivation among the six people was revealed. Shi Yuan, with the deepest cultivation, was at the forefront because his body was light and agile, making him even faster than the mighty mammoth elephant. With one step, he could cover several dozen feet, but to help Shi Qian and Yun Shan, he only managed to keep pace with the mammoth elephant. At this time, they were still several miles away from the desolate ancient forest at the foot of the mountain.

  Immediately following was Li Yue, this woman's cultivation had also approached the small completion of refining blood, but after all, she couldn't compare to Shi Yuan, and could only barely support Shi Lei alone. As for Xiao Yi behind her, she was somewhat unable to keep up.

  Perhaps due to the inexplicable premonition earlier, Xiao Yi deliberately slowed down his pace, and for a moment, he fell behind the five people by nearly ten zhang, but it was actually not much different from the cultivation he had revealed.

  "Xiao Ge!" Shi Lei's eyes caught sight of Xiao Yi getting farther and farther away, while the mammoth elephant's roar got closer and closer, and he couldn't help but be startled. "Liyue Jie!"

  Lunar's eyebrows furrowed slightly, without loosening her grip on Shi Lei's arm. She forced herself to speak as she stepped forward: "I won't be able to help him; if we intervene, the three of us will undoubtedly die."

  With Shi Lei alone, she was already struggling, and with Xiao Yi added to the mix, they would be caught by the mammoth elephants before even entering the desolate ancient forest.

  As he watched the figure getting farther and farther away, Xiao Yi's eyes flashed with a hint of sharpness, and suddenly changed direction, rushing towards another dense ancient forest at the foot of the mountain. At this time, the mammoth elephant was less than twenty zhang away from Xiao Yi, in its view, the human being in front was just struggling to survive, and it didn't go after Li Yue and others, it let out a long roar, following Xiao Yi's back shadow, wanting to kill this nearest pioneer first.

  The wisdom of the wild beast, as its cultivation deepens, its mind gradually clears up. What's more, for a naturally born middle-tier wild beast like the mammoth elephant, it can almost judge in a few breaths that giving up on Xiao Yi won't necessarily allow it to catch up to Li Yue Wu Ge, but giving up on Li Yue Wu Ge will definitely allow it to catch up to Xiao Yi.

  "Xiao Da Ge!"

  "This guy!"

  At this moment, not only Shi Lei, but also the four people of Shi Yuan were shocked. They suddenly stopped their movements and stared blankly at the majestic figure of the mammoth elephant disappearing into the distance.

  "I was underestimating him." Shi Yuan said in a low voice, "With such ferocity, he should join the Blood Stone Tribe's army!"

  Soldier's Mound! The Bloodstone Tribe's burial ground for warriors! Only true warriors of the human tribe, after death, have the qualification to be buried here, receiving the daily sacrifices from the entire tribe.

  Shi Qian clenched his fists, and the cold indifference in his eyes disappeared, revealing a complex expression.

  "This time back to the tribe, we asked the hundred captains of the clan to take action and come to kill this mammoth elephant, using its bones and blood to sacrifice for Xiao Da Ge!" At this time, Li Yue's tone also became more serious. No matter what, a clansman who could give up his life for them was worthy of their greatest respect, regardless of his cultivation level.

  "No!" Shi Lei suddenly spoke up, his tone calm, but a fierce gleam burning in his eyes. "I'm going right now!"

  I'm going right now!

  Shi Lei's voice was not loud, but it was like a thunderclap in the ears of Shi Yuan and his three companions, at this moment, no one doubted his determination.

  Qing Tie knife gripped tightly, Shi Yuan suddenly spat out a mouthful of saliva, his eyes also began to redden, he gritted his teeth and said: "On the battlefield, thousands of immortal soldiers didn't scare me, just a mid-ranking desolate beast, I abandoned my brothers in the clan!"

  "Go!" Yun Shan said with a cold smile, his thick and honest nature momentarily replaced by a glint of chill in his eyes, as he thrust the white bone stick into the ground several inches deep.

  Shi Qian didn't say a word, his face cold and stern, he walked straight in the direction where Xiao Yi had disappeared. Behind him, Shi Lei was slightly stunned, then opened his mouth.

  Beyond measure.

  Xiao Yi ran swiftly through the dark ancient forest, his speed gradually increasing until he was as swift as the wind, his sleeves fluttering loudly, and was actually a fraction faster than a mighty mammoth.

  A look of confusion flashed across the mammoth's eyes, and it didn't understand why the weakest human tribe suddenly became so much faster, but it knew that if this continued, it would gain nothing today.

  However, in that instant, the originally swift Xiao Yi suddenly stopped in his tracks. He abruptly turned around, and with a sudden movement, he drew out the broken sword from its scabbard. His entire body was filled with an intense aura of blood and energy, and at the same time, behind him, a vague shadowy figure began to take shape. This shadowy figure was identical to the image of the barbaric elephant that Xiao Yi had envisioned earlier - it was a massive, towering elephant with scales as black as jade, its body still somewhat indistinct but already beginning to take form. As this happened, an ancient and desolate aura began to emanate from it, causing numerous small stones within several meters around them to levitate into the air, each one about the size of a thumb.

  The momentum of the barbarian elephant!

  It belongs to Xiao Yi's barbaric elephant momentum, as soon as it appears, it presents a stunning atmosphere, facing the fierce mammoth, there has never been a moment when the green scales of the barbaric elephant are so clear in my mind, every inch of muscle is exerting force, every thread of blood is boiling, without any pretentiousness, Xiao Yi's spear sweeps horizontally, the battle energy surges, the air crackles with a loud noise, the three-foot-long pale blue spear energy crystal is radiant, emitting a sharp edge.

  A flash of terror flickered in its eyes, and just as Xiao Yi made his move, the mammoth elephant felt a tremor from deep within its veins. The force was not particularly strong, but it was like a great mountain pressing down on its heart, causing its entire body to go limp, losing half of its strength in an instant.

  Boom!

  Xiao Yi's shot was as swift as lightning, the gun body fell, and the mammoth elephant was swept away by a single shot. A thousand-year-old ancient tree was knocked down, and on the body of the mammoth elephant, a three-foot-long gash was torn open in the dark green skin, several inches deep, with blood flowing profusely, and the ground was instantly stained red.

  Ah!

  The furious mammoth elephant roared, its trunk like a dark green iron whip sweeping horizontally, with a faint black glow on top, belonging to the Elephant Clan's Elephant Force, making this strike far exceed its cultivation. The air howled, and a wild wind rose.

  His face was solemn, this elephant power is the original power that can only be derived after the Elephant Clan converges on the Wasteland Star. With the elephant power in his body, the strength of this giant mammoth has already approached infinity, far surpassing Xiao Yi.

  The spiritual will is extremely condensed, the brutal elephant's great power technique is fully activated, Xiao Yi's whole body is surging with war energy, and the momentum of the brutal elephant becomes even more solid. The aura belonging to the brutal elephant presses down again, and the mammoth giant elephant's mind trembles. The elephant's strength that has been condensed on the trunk suddenly has a tendency to disperse.

  A sharp glint flashed in his eyes, Xiao Yi let out a cold cry, "Wind and Thunder Unite!"

  Feng Lei Gun Method, 10th Style: Feng Lei Initial Gathering. One of the three ultimate techniques, it burst forth in Xiao Yi's hands, with a pale blue gun aura completely enveloping the broken spear. The majestic momentum shrouded an area of ten zhang in diameter, causing the air to stagnate and the sharp spear intent locking onto the Mammoth Giant Elephant.

  Whoosh!

  A residual shadow flashed by, and this gunshot turned into several residual images in the air, along with Xiao Yi's entire person, also turning into a residual shadow. By the time his figure reappeared, he was already standing three zhang behind the Mammoth Giant Elephant.

  Rumble!

  It seemed as if a small mountain had collapsed, and the vital energy on the mammoth's body was rapidly disappearing. On its forehead, there was a huge blood hole the size of a bowl, which penetrated the entire body of the elephant. The back of the elephant had sunk in, and the entire spine had been shattered by a single shot.

  Turning around, Xiao Yi's face was slightly pale, and the last shot had almost exhausted all his spiritual will, which could be considered his current peak blow.

  "Although it took me nearly a year to grasp the momentum of the fierce elephant, my willpower has only just reached the middle level of the ordinary realm. I've been suppressing my spiritual power from breaking through because I was afraid that my foundation wasn't solid enough. Recently, for half a year, I've been engaging in daily battles with my future self, tempering my willpower and refining my spirit between life and death. Only recently did I finally break through, unable to hold back any longer. However, it's precisely because of this that my willpower has taken a significant step forward in the ordinary realm. Simply put, my spiritual power is even more vigorous than that of this young elephant. Moreover, the momentum of the fierce elephant seems to have an innate suppressive effect on this species; otherwise, I wouldn't have been able to win so easily. If it were a middle-ranking desolate beast from another species, the outcome would still be uncertain."

  Xiao Yi stared at the elephant corpse in front of him, his eyes revealing a hint of excitement. This young elephant was extraordinary, possessing the bloodline of a one-star savage beast. Even if it was just a thread, its refined essence was thicker than that of an ordinary mid-tier savage beast. Moreover, as it belonged to the same species as the barbaric elephant, it might be beneficial for his cultivation of the Barbaric Elephant's Great Strength Technique.

  With a thought, Xiao Yi's large hand grasped at the empty air, and the fierce elephant's great strength technique revolved. In an instant, he seemed to transform into a gigantic green-scaled elephant. The elephant's trunk sucked in mid-air, and a massive river was instantly drained dry. At a speed visible to the naked eye, the elephant corpse before him rapidly withered away, not just its blood energy, but even its flesh and blood essence were extracted with great force. A water bucket-sized column of faintly black-striped vital energy fell into Xiao Yi's mouth, his belly seeming like a bottomless pit, without any undulations. In the blink of an eye, the entire elephant corpse was left with only a sheet of dark greenish-black elephant skin. As a gentle breeze swept by, this elephant skin also crumbled like wind-eroded dry stone, shattering into powder and merging with the mud, becoming indistinguishable.

  This majestic blood energy was absorbed and refined by the Stone Mirror, leaving only a fist-sized crystal ball that shone like dark black jade, containing the Elephant Clan's primal power. As he sensed this power, the Barbarian Elephant Great Technique automatically activated, and in an instant, Xiao Yi felt his 108 Heavenly Veins trembling simultaneously, his human blood boiling, his battle energy surging like silkworms wrapping around the elephant blood, beginning to refine it.

  A steady stream of vital energy poured into the six heavenly meridians, seeping into his flesh and skin, permeating every limb and joint. Every inch of muscle felt numb and tingling. Xiao Yi hadn't expected that the power of the Blood Essence would have such a profound effect on his physical body. Although it was far inferior to the transformative power of the Arid Dragon's essence, which had remade his body from scratch, it still made his flesh even more resilient. If one were to say that initially, his body was tainted by worldly dust and his spirit was like withered stone, then after being tempered by the Arid Dragon's essence, he had undergone a transformation, becoming a block of unrefined iron. Now, he was beginning to transform into refined steel. Welcome everyone to leave comments in the review section, speak your mind freely.
