Swallowing the Stars: Eternal Glory

Chapter 19 Annihilating the Beast Horde (Part 2)

"Puff puff--"

At this moment, the sound of sharp blades piercing bodies rang out continuously. Wherever the black light transformed from the nine-element flying knives reached, the heads of the beast general-level monsters in the horde were pierced one after another.

In less than three seconds, all fifty-odd beast general-level monsters in the horde died under Lu Jin's flying knives.

This is the killing art of a psychic!
In terms of killing efficiency, even a War God Warrior can't match a Spirit Master of the same level.

Moreover, if it were any other mentalist, the killing would have stopped by now.

After all, with the Lord-level Firescale Trident Boar dead and all the Beast General-level leaders in the horde killed, the large number of beast soldiers would soon disperse on their own in fear of death.

But this art of killing did not stop unfolding.

In Lu Jin's eyes, even beast-soldier level monsters have a chance to drop items, so he would kill as many as he could.

"Puff puff--"

Blood blossoms bloomed amidst the still-smoldering beast horde, and two nine-element throwing knives, controlled by Lu Jin's mental power, drew arcs of death.

Wherever the black blade struck, the monsters all died from headshots.

After a while, in the dilapidated neighborhood that was littered with the corpses of pig-like monsters, there was no longer a single living monster.

It wasn't that Lu Jin killed them all, but rather that those who didn't have time to escape were killed by Lu Jin.

Inside the external storage space, there was an additional pure gold orb that dropped from a critical hit, and three light gold orbs that dropped normally.

At this moment, a voice rang out: "My name is Zhou Lin, captain of the Dragon Tooth Squad of the Southeast Military Region. Thank you for saving me, my friend. Please tell me your name, and we will repay you handsomely."

According to the rules of the martial arts world, those who are rescued must repay the rescuer; otherwise, they will be looked down upon if word gets out.

Not only the rescued person, but also the faction to which they belong will be criticized by martial artists.

For example, if a martial artist from the Ultimate Martial Arts Academy is rescued, and there is no sign of gratitude or recognition, then the news will spread.

In the martial arts community, there will be instances where someone from the Extreme Martial Arts Academy acts shamelessly, which can damage the reputation of the Extreme Martial Arts Academy itself.

"No need for a generous reward, just help me collect materials for Beast General-level monsters."

Lu Jin glanced at the five people who were filled with gratitude and said in a hoarse voice.

"Go and collect the materials."

Zhou Lin addressed his four teammates, then looked at Lu Jin, who was wearing a mask: "Collecting materials is our duty. For this rescue, our Dragon Fang team must do our part."

Lu Jin didn't say anything more.

What he wanted was something the military couldn't provide, and what the military could provide in this matter was something he didn't want, so he decided to give up.

Seeing that Lu Jin didn't respond, Zhou Lin looked embarrassed and had no choice but to help collect monster materials, thinking to himself that this powerful person was aloof.

Before long, the materials for the Elementary Lord-level Fire Scale Trident Boar and more than fifty Beast General-level monsters were collected.

"Senior, there are too many materials, we can't fit them all in."

Liu Yang, the youngest member of the Dragon Fang Squad, spoke to Lu Jin.

There were quite a lot of monster materials. Even though the five members of the Dragon Fang Squad contributed their backpacks, which had not yet yielded any income, plus Lu Jin's own, making a total of six backpacks, there were still more than ten low-level beast general-level pig monster materials that could not be packed in.

"The rest are yours."

As he spoke, Lu Jinxin had a thought, and six backpacks filled to the brim flew to his side, then he rode away on his hexagonal shield.

When outsiders are present, the external storage space used as a storage device should not be exposed, otherwise it will be a waste.

Dragon Fang Squad: "."

A few minutes later, inside a residential building.

After putting down the six backpacks that were packed full, Lu Jin emptied all the monster materials from his own backpack.

Immediately afterward, Lu Jin thought for a moment and stuffed all the monster materials scattered on the ground and the five backpacks full into the external storage space.

Leaving a backpack outside would make him look like a normal martial artist coming to hunt in the wilderness. Afterwards, Lu Jin began to examine the three normal drops he had obtained in the previous battle, as well as the critical drop from the Firescale Trident Boar.

Three pale gold ordinary drops, including two pieces of Beast General-level monster materials and one Apprentice-level Life Elixir.

However, the golden critical hit drop from the Firescale Trident Boar gave Lu Jin a small surprise.

[Dropped Item: Planetary-level Life Essence]

[Drop Source: Novice Boss Firescale Trident Boar]

[Drop Tier: Critical Hit Drop]

[Item Description: A spiritual liquid containing pure life energy. After being consumed by a ninth-level peak martial artist/spiritual master, it can advance to a planetary-level martial artist/spiritual master.]

After consuming it, planetary-level martial artists/spiritual masters can increase their Force/spiritual power cultivation to a certain extent. For example, a martial artist who has just entered the first level of planetary martial arts can advance to the second level of planetary martial arts by consuming one bottle of planetary life essence.

Note: If your level is below the peak of Apprentice Rank 9, there is a risk of your body exploding upon consumption.

'Based on this calculation, a planet with ordinary life genes at the first level can be upgraded to the peak of the ninth level by consuming more than 500 doses?'

If one cultivates both Force and Telekinesis, that would amount to over a thousand branches?

Lu Jin thought to himself.

Similar to Muya Crystal, the Planetary Life Essence Liquid has the effect of breaking through the peak bottleneck of the Apprentice level and improving the minor level of Planetary Martial Artists and Spiritual Masters.

However, like Muya Jing, those with too low a level risk exploding and dying while wearing the robes.

Undoubtedly, this is a good thing that we don't need for the time being.

Shaking his head slightly, Lu Jin took out the apprentice-level life essence and consumed it.

After a brief period of intense cellular evolution, Lu Jin began conserving his energy during the day.

A week later.

The sun rises in the east, on the outskirts of city number 003.

"Roar--"

"boom--"

In a dilapidated neighborhood, the roars and rumbling sounds of beasts could be heard incessantly.

A nimble martial artist was seen weaving through a herd of bovine beasts led by a low-level lord-level black-scaled demonic bull.

"Whoosh!" "Whoosh!" "Whoosh!"

With flashes of sword light, either beast-soldier level bovine monsters were killed, or beast-general level bovine monsters were left with a deep, bone-revealing wound, or even killed in the same way.

"Roar!"

"Rumble--"

A powerful roar resounded, shaking the earth. The Black-Scaled Demon Bull, with its right eye socket a bloody mess and wounds at the joints of all four legs, charged toward Lu Jin.

"Old Niu, I'm definitely eating your steak today!"

With a swift movement, Lu Jin dodged the charge of the Black Scale Demon Bull, and shouted sharply.

"Roar!"

Filled with hatred for being blinded, the Black-Scaled Demon Bull turned around and charged at Lu Jin on all fours.

Based solely on martial arts strength, Lu Jin was indeed no match for this low-level lord-level Black Scale Demon Bull.

After all, based on the benefits of the Life Elixir and the cultivation of genetic energy, his current basic punching strength is only around 30,000 kilograms, which is not even up to the standard of a high-level warrior.

Even with twice the physical strength, it wasn't enough for him to cross two minor levels and challenge a low-level lord monster.

Even though this black-scaled demon bull is only at the lord level, it is not much stronger than a peak high-level beast general.
