“Those who aren’t injured, be vigilant! Don’t let that demon fox get close to you!” Tokugawa Takeo ignored Ling Yun, shouting his warning with all his might to the remaining ninjas.
More than thirty Japanese ninjas were injured or killed by the Myriad Nine Slaughter Formation. Another dozen were slaughtered by Ling Yun, as well as Little White’s tribulation. Less than fifty were left standing!
“Use your ninjutsu and conceal yourselves!” Yusei Yanagi yelled.
However, that came a bit late. Bai Xianer was bolting around in pain, which vaporized another ten of their people!
Ninjutsu? Ling Yun listened nonchalantly. His Yin-Yang Eye was made to discern ninjutsu.
Ling Yun could see through everything with his Yin-Yang Eye. He moved faster than Bai Xianer, extinguishing one life with every swipe of his Devil’s Blade!
No mercy!
Ling Yun didn’t go for Tokugawa Takeo or Yusei Yanagi. He couldn’t discern their realms, which meant they were much stronger than him. Therefore, he wasn’t in a hurry to kill them. There would definitely be a bloody battle between them later!
Tokugawa Takeo couldn’t stand it anymore. Ling Yun had killed too many of his people. At this rate, he and Yusei Yanagi would be the last men standing.
The American forces were no better. Half of them were swallowed by the waves, while some of them fell to their deaths from the helicopters, leaving less than twenty of them left. Everyone was hurling vulgarities at the unexplainable scenery in front of them.
“We have to join forces to stop that Huaxia practitioner!” Tokugawa Takeo said to Yusei Yanagi as he went straight for the kill.
However, Ling Yun wasn’t in the mood to fight them! He had the upper hand in speed, so he started a game of hide-and-seek with them. At the same time, he continued his killing spree with glee!
Tokugawa Takeo screamed with rage. He gave up on the people below the Xiantian Realm and shouted at the twenty remaining ninjas again, “Don’t scatter! Gather in one place so that we can protect you!”
They came in an imposing manner to exact revenge on Ling Yun. Never in their wildest dreams did they think they would come so close to a total wipe. They had to change to a passive defensive strategy.
Ling Yun took the chance to kill another five of the ninjas before halting his rampage.
Ling Yun’s mask had long been dyed red. His Devil’s Blade never seemed more demonic with the faint smear of blood. It had savored the blood of so many.
“Only fifteen left...” Ling Yun said coldly.
Bai Xianer’s cries got more tragic by the second, and Ling Yun could only suppress his desire to save her by killing more people.
The fifteen survivors included both Tokugawa Takeo and Yusei Yanagi. Of which, eight were Xiantian Realm Level Two and five were Xiantian Realm Level One. They conversed in Japanese, cowering in fear!
They knew Ling Yun was strong before they came, but they didn’t expect him to be so strong!
A normal Xiantian Realm Level Two ninja couldn’t even last one round with Ling Yun!
Ling Yun secretly adjusted his True Qi to generate as much Yin-Yang Qi as possible. He might even need to consume some dragon saliva to survive this.
Ling Yun’s True Qi had been depleting fast! The Xiantian ninjas were a pain to chase, forcing Ling Yun to use the Dragon Fish Phantom Ability to its maximum for quite some time now. Moreover, he had simultaneously used the Celestial Destroyer Technique.
He had half of his True Qi left after killing more than twenty of his enemies. However, the surviving ones were the true masters. An uphill battle ensued!
Ling Yun used his Stellar Condensation Technique and Yin-Yang harmony balance to move to a shorter mountain. “If you don’t want to die, drop all your weapons and leave Turtle Island. I’ll slaughter every last one of you if you are still on the island after five minutes.” Ling Yun cautioned the American soldiers in English.
Ling Yun wielded his Devil’s Blade to prove his point.
One of the American naval officers didn’t seem convinced. He wanted to try the power of the new bomb in his hands. He was, however, stopped by a lieutenant next to him.
His action, however, didn’t go unnoticed by Ling Yun. An eight-centimeter long nail instantly lodged itself in the middle of his forehead. His mouth opened wide as if he wanted to scream, but the sound never got out. He collapsed onto the floor, dead.
“Four minutes. Fight or run, up to you!” Ling Yun said without a care in the world.
“Clang clang...” All sorts of weapons were abandoned. The only surviving captain raised both his hands and shouted, “We surrender. We’ll leave immediately. Don’t kill us!”
That was where the Americans were different from the Japanese. Life was more precious than anything.
They had no further business here. This wasn’t a battle, it was merely seeking death.
“Tell your commander to go back where you came from if you don’t want your aircraft carrier to sink!” Ling Yun shouted after them.
Ling Yun knew the electronics on the aircraft carrier must be malfunctioning as a result of tribulation, meaning the missiles wouldn’t be able to fire.
“Boom! Boom!” Little White screeched in pain again. Another two helicopters were caught in the lightning’s range and exploded!
The rumbling of thunder got softer as the cloud rolled on. The reddish-brown clouds turned as black as ink, brewing a whole new set of lightning!
Little White entered Ling Yun’s vision once again. She was wounded all over. Her white fur had patches of black where she was electrocuted, and her raw skin was exposed, revealing patches of bright red. It was so painful that she screamed over and over again!
And it was only the first wave of the tribulation! It was too much to bear even for a nine-tailed celestial fox!
“Xian Er, endure the pain. Quickly heal yourself with some Healing Talismans. When you’re healed, use the Defense Talismans and the Gold Talismans immediately to endure the next wave!”
Ling Yun gave Little White some pointers for fear that she might have forgotten what to do in her pain.
Little White’s face pinched with pain, but her eyes were determined. She looked up and barked at the lightning that was several times thicker than before!
Unyielding!
Ling Yun heaved a sigh of relief, happy that Xian Er was like him in this aspect.
“He’s protecting that demon fox for its Tribulation, kill that fox!” Tokugawa Takeo thought that he found Ling Yun’s weakness, that he found a way out. He quickly gave the order when the lightning disappeared!
Four of the Xiantian Realm Level Two ninjas dashed towards Little White upon receiving the order.
Ling Yun exploded in anger as he realized what they were doing. “Courting death!” he cried!
He pushed the Dragon Fish Phantom Ability to its maximum, leaving an afterimage where he stood originally. He appeared in front of the Japanese ninjas!
“Raging Sky!”
“The Blade That Severs Heaven and Earth!”
“Reversal Hurricane Wave!”
“Tiangang Demon Fist!”
The first ninja was sliced in half vertically! The second ninja had his body slashed! The third ninja was chopped up into many pieces with the Devil’s Blade! As for the last ninja, he had a hole pierced through his chest with the punch!
“Har... har... har...” Ling Yun killed four Xiantian Realm Level Two ninjas in an instant, causing his energy to be depleted once again. He held the Devil’s Blade in hand, gasping as he stood there covered in the blood of his enemies.
He was finally getting worn out. However, there were still eleven enemies waiting for him! Five of them were at Xiantian Realm Level One, four of them at Xiantian Realm Level Two, and two at Xiantian Realm Level Three!
“Master!” Little White shouted in panic upon seeing the danger Ling Yun was in.
“Don’t worry about me. Heal yourself quickly and focus on the tribulation!” Ling Yun said in a low voice.
Tokugawa Takeo was overjoyed. He issued yet another order, saying, “He isn’t going to last much longer. Charge!”
The five ninjas at Xiantian Realm Level One rushed forward with their weapons, targeting Ling Yun!
They were unafraid of death as they used their sheer numbers to overwhelm Ling Yun!
All five slashed at Ling Yun, their sharp blades producing a wind so strong that it hurt like hell!
They had forgone defense and attacked Ling Yun aggressively, hoping for just one hit!
Ling Yun didn’t retreat. He quickly bent and protected his head while allowing two blows from his enemies to fall on his back!
At the same time, he swung the Devil’s Blade at those in front of him!
“Pupupupu...”
Fresh blood splattered once more as four of them were hurt by Ling Yun! Ling Yun had also sustained two injuries that were two feet long on his back!
They had infused all of their Xiantian True Qi into the two slashes. Ling Yun would have sustained serious injuries even if he used the Stellar Condensation Technique to its maximum!
Ling Yun ignored the wounds and slashed around with the Devil’s Blade again!
The Japanese ninjas who gave him the injuries became minced meat!
“Pu!” Ling Yun spat out fresh blood. His face was red with exhaustion, and his body swayed, nearly collapsing!
Ling Yun quickly took out a bunch of Level Two Healing Talismans and used them on his back, healing his injuries in an instant.
“Har... har.. har... har...”
Ling Yun breathed heavily as he tried to straighten his body. He pulled off his shirt and mask. “Six more. Come on!” he said coldly, his sharp eyes locked onto Tokugawa Takeo.
“Boooommmm...”
“Kacha!”
A thick bolt of lightning struck directly onto Little White’s body!
