Naming Technique of the Night

Chapter 879: 541, Banished Immortal

Ye Wan stood on the mountain peak, guarding Lin Xiaoxiao by his side.

He overlooked the military camp, where more than a hundred azure-blue Kui Bulls were rampaging wildly.

The Grand Elder of the Fire Pit, who had led the Kui Bulls into the fray, had vanished.

At this hour, three in the morning, more than half of the soldiers in the Jindai Military Camp were already asleep. According to military regulations, if an emergency occurred, they had to complete all preparations and be combat-ready within five minutes.

However, the Kui Bulls charged too fast, and the raid came too suddenly.

It wasn’t really Jindai’s carelessness. Without Lin Xiaoxiao suddenly putting nearly half of the soldiers and officers to sleep, and without the Grand Elder splitting the defensive forces with his astonishing strike, even if the number of Kui Bulls were doubled, they still wouldn’t have broken through.

This was a miraculous chain reaction produced by the tacit cooperation between Transcendents.

At this moment, Lin Xiaoxiao had not given up.

He sat cross-legged on the snow, blood tears streaming down his cheeks to his chin, his entire demeanor notably weakened.

Ye Wan said calmly, “If you do this, you’ll never advance again, forever stuck at B-Class. It will be your greatest regret.”

For a B-Class Awakener to attempt to put nearly ten thousand people to sleep, there was bound to be a significant price.

Moreover, Lin Xiaoxiao, while clearly overextending himself, continued to support his efforts, essentially burning away his future tonight.

Lin Xiaoxiao closed his eyes, a bitter smile on his face, “The boss tried so many ways to help me advance to A-Class but failed. Over the past few months, I’ve taken up so much of the boss’s time. Forget about A-Class.”

The next moment, an elite unit suddenly emerged from the Jindai Military Camp, fully prepared. They were entirely composed of high-level Genetic Warriors, over sixty men sprinting through the night, directly towards the Kui Bulls.

Their expressions were grim.

One of them growled, “These Kui Bulls have lost their minds. We need to lure them out of the camp to buy time for the other combat units to start up the War Robots and for the artillery team to regroup!”

The field division carried 240 War Robots with independent military networks, each equipped with powerful mechanical limbs, infrasound generators, and heavy firepower weapons.

Under these circumstances, the War Robots were the most suitable weapons for the current battlefield.

As soon as he finished speaking, the remaining Genetic Warriors beside him roared, “Jade Shatter!”

Everyone charged towards the herd of Kui Bulls.

But before they could reach them, they suddenly saw the Fire Pit Grand Elder, who had been missing for some time, leap from the belly of a Kui Bull onto its back!

The Kui Bull surged and galloped, but the Grand Elder sat on the back as steady as a rock.

His masterful riding skills were on full display in that moment!

The Grand Elder stood on the Kui Bull’s back, leaping up with a wild laugh. His bedraggled figure merged with the stars in the sky, only to then see him lift a Black Knife with both hands, descending with a force as if to split rivers and mountains.

In an instant, the black totem on the Grand Elder’s body circulated rapidly, materializing a giant Divine Cow Dharma behind him.

The Black Totem was a power endowed to all inheritors of the Fire Pit. Guo Huchan had it, Qin Yiyi had it, and Spades A, Xu Linsen, had it as well.

This was the power bestowed by the Gods.

Unity with the spirit!

Unity with the force!

Unity with the blade!

“Jade Shatter my ass! Break for me!” The Grand Elder slashed down, and the astonishing ten-plus-zhang blade force reappeared. Everyone thought that with such a formidable display, the Grand Elder could only manage one strike, but no one expected he had the strength to deliver a second slash!

At that moment, Lin Xiaoxiao, on the mountain peak, abruptly opened his blood-red eyes: “Wither! Eternal Sleep!”

In an instant, the more than sixty Genetic Warriors before the Grand Elder’s blade force seemed to be stunned for a fleeting moment!

By the time they regained their senses, the giant blade force had already shattered them, some even feeling their body cells vaporize!

After striking this blow, the Grand Elder seemed significantly weakened and leaped back onto the Kui Bull’s back, shouting into the communication channel, “Li Yunjing! Li Yunjing, where are you, old man?”

A Grand Elder of the Fire Pit, considered a barbarian by outsiders, using advanced communication equipment created an indescribably eerie feeling.

Amid the galloping Kui Bulls, his sleeve lifted to reveal an electronic watch on his wrist…

The Grand Elder, seeing no response after his call, continued to urge, “Their War Robots are about to activate. If you don’t act now, I’ll haunt you as a ghost, sitting by your bed every midnight!”

In the surrounding area, the Jindai soldiers moved quicker than expected. All 240 War Robots had already activated!

Their eyes flashed red, with the system continually correcting targets. Finally, all War Robots locked onto the Grand Elder on the Kui Bull.’

All the War Robots began to run, the infrasound generators they carried making the Grand Elder’s head throb, his internal organs vibrating to the point where he nearly vomited blood!

These War Robots were equipped to target masters and massacre large enemy areas; being machines, they were impervious to the infrasound waves.

The Grand Elder roared, “Li Yunjing!”

At this moment, a composed voice came through the communication channel, “Understood.”

Ye Wan looked up at the opposite mountain peak. The reclusive master of the Li Family, Li Yunjing, was quietly standing there.

“Can you still hold on?” Ye Wan asked Lin Xiaoxiao.

“I heard he encountered a master from the Jindai Clan in the south and crushed him,” Lin Xiaoxiao said, slumping in the snow. “The boss said he’s among the most hopeful of breaking through to the demigod realm in recent years. I have to keep my eyes open.”

The night was filled with Great Snow.

There were spectators in the snow.

The audience looked towards the mountain peak, and Li Yunjing spoke softly to Li Ke behind him, “Boy, step back ten zhang.”

Li Ke retreated.

As he did, he suddenly saw Li Yunjing, who had meditated in front of the Baopu Building for twenty-eight years, who had guarded his grandfather for twenty-eight years, this martial artist obsessed not with fame or fortune, extending his hand to the sky.

Those long, powerful fingers seemed to pluck a star from the void.

Li Yunjing pressed his palm towards the valley below, and suddenly, a third of the Jindai Military Camp collapsed into a deep, bottomless pit!

The ground above, war chariots, tents, soldiers, War Robots!

All fell into the abyss.

When the earth releases murderous intent, dragons and serpents rise!

On the surface, it was as though the mighty forces of nature had crumbled!

Li Yunjing was surrounded by cloud gas, like a banished immortal!

A moment ago, the Grand Elder of the Fire Pit’s aura had been continuous, slashing twice.

But Li Yunjing had poured all his energy into a single palm strike, astounding the world!

Ye Wan watched in silence from the opposite side, “This is just the peak of A-Class. If he advances to demigod, many will be terrified.”

Lin Xiaoxiao said, “It was worth coming. It’s just that the great path has many roads, but none for me. What a pity.”

Thus, starting with the Grand Elder of the Fire Pit leading the Kui Bulls to charge the camp, using Lin Xiaoxiao’s nightmare as a catalyst, and ending with Li Yunjing’s dragons and serpents rising from the earth, the entire Jindai Military Camp had descended into chaos.

Some soldiers fled desperately across the snowfield, while Qin Yiyi, who had been hiding there beforehand, emerged from the snow, trailing behind the Jindai soldiers, killing them until they trembled with fear.

The girl’s black ponytail looked exceptionally delicate against the snow, her slender and agile figure like a snow leopard.

What was peculiar was that the Divine Cow Dharma forms of the Fire Pit were all fierce creatures, but behind her, there was only a faint halo.

…

…

The crows in the mountains sat silently, with Si Yue sitting in the snow, her chin resting on her hands, “It’s finally over. In another 20 minutes, we’ll go down to clean the battlefield.”

As she spoke, she pulled a red pen from her sleeve.

She had used this pen in City No. 10; just by tapping it lightly on a corpse, a Transcendent’s body would disappear.

By now, the Grand Elder was limping over to rendezvous, and Ye Wan was carrying Lin Xiaoxiao down the mountain.

The Grand Elder grumbled, “It should be enough by now. The combat strength of a division has suffered at least 40% losses; their morale is broken. Now that they’ve scattered, to hunt them all down would take at least half a month.”

Generally, ill-disciplined troops might scatter during a war if there were no rewards.

Slightly better ones would disperse after 5% casualties.

Better yet, they would face declining morale and gradual defeat at 20% casualties.

Only those with faith could possibly fight to the last soldier.

The Jindai units were actually all elite. Theoretically, they would still want to resist at this moment, but Li Yunjing’s method was too terrifying, crushing the will of the Jindai soldiers. With all War Robots destroyed and the Genetic Warriors slashed, they didn’t know how to overcome such masters.

Of course, this wasn’t the most elite unit of the Jindai Consortium; their top forces were at the front line.

Ye Wan stated, “No need to continue the chase. The boss said dragging them for five days would be sufficient. From the looks of it, within five days, they won’t complete their reorganization.”

The Grand Elder glanced around, “Where’s Uncle Li? It’s his apprentice we’re rescuing, but he’s not here!”

Ye Wan explained, “The boss had other matters and left first.”

“Oh,” the Grand Elder nodded, gloating, “He’s dealing with another field division then? But… isn’t he stretching himself too thin? Even as a demigod, it’s impossible to handle a field division alone. Moreover, while Knights are powerful, their attacks are purely physical. Dispersing a division quickly seems unfeasible.”

Ye Wan glanced at the old man, “The boss didn’t go for that field division, and he’s not alone.”

“Hmm?” The Grand Elder furrowed his brow, “Wait a moment, so the field division next door is left unchecked? Then all our efforts will be wasted. Qing Chen will still die.”

Ye Wan smiled, “No, the boss said someone would handle it.”

Hearing this, the Grand Elder instinctively glanced at Qin Yiyi’s back, thinking, does Qing Chen have such a strong background?
