Singing with a Sword

The following is the main text of the novel "{?$article_title?}" ({?$jieqi_title?}) provided by {?$jieqi_sitename?}. Enjoy! Moo~ Moo~ Moo~

Dozens of rhinoceroses, their sharp horns bristling, charged towards Yi Ranxiao. These rhinoceroses were bloodthirsty beasts; seeing the bear's carcass on the ground and the bloodstains on Yi Ranxiao, they charged like madmen. However—

call out!

Yiran Xiao thrust out his sword!

The Divine Thunder Sword Technique is as swift as lightning!

With a soft thud, the green sword swiftly pierced the head of the first rhinoceros! The rhinoceros didn't react at all! Blood and brain matter splattered, and it died instantly! But this was only the beginning!

Yiran Xiao moved with incredible speed, his green sword dancing like a ball of green light among the rhinoceroses, yet bursting forth with endless "red light"—all the blood of the rhinoceroses! The speed of the green sword was simply too fast; how could these clumsy rhinoceroses possibly dodge it?

One rhinoceros after another fell, but they fought with increasing ferocity and fearlessness, methodically surrounding Yi Ranxiao and forming an impenetrable encirclement!

Yi Ranxiao secretly admired these rhinos. Even after being slaughtered like this, they could still execute their encirclement tactics. Indeed, this rhinoceros herd excelled at encirclement warfare and group battles, and had their own set of tactics. In the past, they were invincible, completely crushing even monsters much stronger than themselves! But today, they had encountered Yi Ranxiao, and their only fate was to be slaughtered!

Boom boom~ Boom boom~

Suddenly, thunder roared! The Divine Thunder Sword Technique, roaring like thunder! Instantly, the rhinos felt dizzy, and Yi Ranxiao seized the opportunity to strike again! With several "thuds," more rhinos crashed to the ground, raising clouds of dust.

At this moment, Xiaoru, who was in the tree, said, "Brother Yi, why don't you let me fight alongside you for a while? It'll be a good opportunity for me to practice my swordsmanship." Yiranxiao looked at the few remaining rhinoceroses and nodded, "Alright! Let me see your fighting prowess, Xiaoru."

Xiaoru jumped down from the branch, flipped her hand and took out a short sword. The sword was covered with intricate patterns and was quite beautiful. However, the short sword was also extremely sharp. In just a few seconds, Xiaoru had already killed a rhinoceros.

"What a fine sword!" Yi Ranxiao exclaimed in admiration. Xiao Ru's Yuan Power level should be at least at the fifth level of the Transcendent Realm. He hadn't realized she was such a skilled fighter. Xiao Ru smiled and attacked even more vigorously, and another rhinoceros fell dead.

In less than half a minute, most of the dozens of one-horned rhinoceroses had been killed or wounded, leaving only seven or eight. Just then, these seven or eight one-horned rhinoceroses suddenly retreated together, their angry eyes fixed on Yi Ranxiao and Xiao Ru.

Among the seven or eight rhinos, another female rhinoceros took a few steps back, and the other rhinos stood in front of her, seemingly protecting her.

"Is that female rhinoceros their leader?" Yi Ranxiao asked疑惑地. Xiao Ru was also puzzled, staring blankly at the female rhinoceros.

moo~

The mother rhinoceros suddenly roared, and in that instant, she gave birth to a calf! Without pausing, she continued to give birth to another calf, and then another… one calf after another landed beneath her!

Yi Ranxiao and Xiao Ru stared wide-eyed at everything. This mother rhinoceros was incredibly fertile! In less than thirty seconds, she... she gave birth to more than two hundred calves!

terror!

But why did she give birth to these calves? Was it so they could help her fight? No way, these tiny rhinoceros babies probably can't even walk properly, how could they fight?

Just as the two were wondering what was going on, a miracle happened!

Those two hundred-plus calves of rhinoceros grew and matured at a speed visible to the naked eye. In less than two seconds, they had the size of adult rhinoceroses!

Yi Ranxiao and Xiao Ru were completely stunned! This was beyond their comprehension! Could there really be such a talent in this world? Instantly giving birth to cubs, and then making the cubs grow up in an instant!

But the two had no time to think about that, because opposite them, the rhinoceros herd that originally consisted of only seven or eight rhinoceroses had now grown into a large force of two hundred rhinoceroses!

More than two hundred rhinos glared angrily at Yi Ranxiao and Xiao Ru. These two insignificant humans had cruelly killed their own kind!

Revenge! Let's pay tribute to our fallen compatriots with human blood!

Moo! Moo! Moo!

More than two hundred rhinos charged toward the two men in an orderly fashion, quickly surrounding them!

"Xiaoru, be careful!" Yiran Xiao said seriously. Dozens of rhinos were manageable, but hundreds of rhinos would be dangerous!

"Brother Yi, be careful too!" With that, the two of them thrust their swords out at the same time.

Puff~Puff~Puff~

Several rhinos fell immediately! But in the world of these rhinos, there seemed to be no such thing as fear. When they saw blood and their comrades fall, they only became more courageous and frenzied in their attacks! They wanted to use their sharp horns to pierce the hearts of their enemies!

Yi Ranxiao sensed something was wrong and unleashed the full power of his Misty Shadow Steps, while his Divine Thunder Sword Technique was unleashed once more! The rhinoceros was a large creature with thick hide, unlike humans or bats, which were not easily pierced. Therefore, every time Yi Ranxiao thrust his sword, he aimed for the rhinoceros's soft spots, such as its eyes or abdomen.

In just a few breaths, nearly a hundred rhinos in the herd were brought down! However, Xiaoru was accidentally injured by a rhino, and Yiranxiao immediately stepped forward to protect her.

"Xiaoru, you go and rest over there. I can handle these rhinos by myself!" Yiran Xiao's words left no room for argument. Xiaoru nodded; she could see that her presence was, to some extent, hindering Yiran Xiao's performance!

Yi Ranxiao immediately grabbed Xiaoru's waist, spun her around, and gently pushed her out of the encirclement. Xiaoru landed safely on a tall tree in the distance. Now, Yi Ranxiao could finally act freely!

Whoosh~whoosh~whoosh~

With feet barely touching the ground, swift as a rabbit, fast as lightning, he moved with incredible agility, leaving a trail of afterimages. Wherever he went, all that could be heard was a series of sword strikes, followed by the sharp sounds of blades piercing flesh.

The blood beneath their feet had stained the earth red, and vast stretches of rhinoceros carcasses covered the ground. More than two hundred rhinoceroses were nearly wiped out! But just then, the mother rhinoceros from before began giving birth again! One calf after another was born rapidly, then grew instantly, becoming new fighting force!

Hundreds more rhinoceroses surrounded Yi Ranxiao! They trampled over the corpses of their companions, their eyes blazing with fury as they stared at Yi Ranxiao! They refused to believe that so many rhinoceroses couldn't handle one person.

Yi Ranxiao was speechless. How could there be such a monstrous beast race in the Lingnan Forest, with such a prolific reproductive ability! It was truly a headache! It seemed that to achieve final victory, they would have to kill that mother rhinoceros who could reproduce indefinitely first!

Immediately, his left fist slammed into the ground! Golden fist energy condensed beneath the mother rhinoceros's feet, about to be unleashed, but the rhinoceros herd's hooves pounded the earth, causing it to tremble. The golden fist energy, originally aimed at the mother rhinoceros, missed its target! It shot out from the mother rhinoceros's side, striking another rhinoceros instead.

"What?" Yi Ranxiao was startled. It seemed that the accuracy of the Earth God Fist would be greatly affected when the ground shook violently, so there was no other way!

Suddenly, Yi Ranxiao unleashed a sword strike, the soaring azure sword light sweeping across the area, killing all the dozens of rhinoceroses at the forefront! A large gap appeared, and Yi Ranxiao moved swiftly, rushing onto this bloody path towards the mother rhinoceros that had been hiding behind the herd!

At that moment, the mother rhinoceros was still giving birth! She realized that a few hundred rhinoceroses wouldn't be enough to kill this human; it would require at least several thousand, or even tens of thousands. So she hid behind the herd and kept giving birth! But the human attacked her!

moo~

The mother rhinoceros roared in alarm, and upon hearing the command, some of the rhinoceroses immediately surrounded her tightly!

Yi Ranxiao was furious. This group of rhinos was practically a regular army! Their efficiency in carrying out orders was incredibly high! But Yi Ranxiao still thrust out his sword again and again!

Even if you hide in the heart of a herd of rhinos, I will still charge in and kill you!

"Drink!" Yi Ranxiao shouted, his azure sword pointing directly at the mother rhinoceros! An astonishing azure sword light burst forth, like a rainbow piercing the sky, stirring up dust and blasting towards the outer rhinoceros herd! It sent the walls of beef flying backward, creating a large gap leading to the very center! The still-burning sword light slammed fiercely towards the mother rhinoceros at the very center!

However, the newly grown rhinoceroses beneath the mother rhinoceros quickly moved to stand in front of her! Another wall of beef was formed!

The soaring sword light ultimately failed to break through the barrier! It was successfully blocked by the hundreds of rhinos with their hard bodies! Then, the surviving rhinos surrounded Yi Ranxiao once again!

Even Xiao Yidu felt like cursing! These rhinos were absolutely insane! They were even more fearless than human suicide squads! And his luck was truly terrible, to encounter such formidable enemies! But complaining was useless; he could only continue fighting! In the current situation, going it alone would only lead to his annihilation.

One person alone has little chance of success, so Xiaoru can only help from the side: "Xiaoru, I'll hold off these rhinos! You find an opportunity to attack the mother rhinoceros that is giving birth from a distance!"

Xiaoru responded; even if Yiranxiao hadn't said anything, she would have acted anyway. But this time, she sheathed her sword and focused intently on the mother rhinoceros's eyes! At this moment, upon closer inspection, a peculiar pattern could be seen flowing within Xiaoru's eyes! The mother rhinoceros, being stared at by her, suddenly felt dizzy and gradually lost consciousness! Just like when Xue Wuyai stared at Yiranxiao back then.
