Five days later.
Slaughter Redemption, oh no... it should be Jinyu Mantang now.
At the headquarters of Jinyu Mantang, Xiang Mantang gazed at the data collected by Zeus and the others with an icy gleam in his eyes.
Indeed, after five days of relentless searching and investigation, Xiang Mantang had finally traced the clues and found the high-level executive from Withered Tree Quest for Spring who had spent billions to have Mu Jinyu killed.
It was on a certain private island.
Furthermore, that person's identity was that of a world-renowned billionaire, with a fortune of over one hundred billion dollars.
"Make the arrangements, I'm going to settle accounts with him now!"
Xiang Mantang spoke to Nameless without even turning his head.
"Yes."
Nameless nodded gently and then went to arrange the procedures for Xiang Mantang.
Three o'clock in the afternoon.
Xiang Mantang had already arrived at the private island with Zeus, Poseidon, Nameless, San Liu, and other top-grade assassins from Jinyu Mantang.
As soon as they jumped down from the helicopter, they immediately heard the piercing sound of alarms blaring intensely throughout the entire island.
"Heh, you're only discovering us now? Too late!"
Xiang Mantang propped himself up with one hand in the sandy soil, climbing out of the crater with an unhurried demeanor, lifting his feet and ascending step by step in mid-air as if climbing stone stairs.
Seeing Xiang Mantang's eerie movement technique, Zeus and the others also climbed out of the deep pits they had created from their descent and looked at him in astonishment, their wariness growing stronger.
These past few days, whether it was because he had absorbed the entire Ten Thousand Year Wood Core or because of the great shock of Mu Jinyu's incident, Xiang Mantang's cultivation had advanced at an unbelievable pace.
Originally, with Mu Jinyu's help, he had escaped death and his strength had already progressed from the Peak Energy Transformation to the threshold of the Divine Realm. With the cultivation over these days, he was now only one step away from the Divine Realm, a horrifying state where very few people in the entire world had ever reached!
"Chi-chi-chi!!"
At that moment, a group of Mech Armored Warriors dressed in futuristic armor burst from the enormous mansion on the island and charged towards the small forest where they were.
"Zap!"
They held a metal sword hilt in their hands, and upon pressing a switch, a fierce deep blue laser beam shot out from the sword fiercely.
As these people approached Xiang Mantang and his allies, without a second word, they prepared to eliminate them as illegal invaders!
"Everyone, take action!"
Xiang Mantang glanced once and knew these fully armed individuals had strength ranging from Great Achievement in Dark Energy to Peak, not even reaching the level of Master of Energy Transformation, not worth his effort.
Zeus, Poseidon, San Liu, Nameless, and Snake, hearing Xiang Mantang's order, exchanged glances and then collectively made their move.
"Whoosh!"
San Liu and Nameless raised their hands to draw out a sharp dagger made of special metal from their waist. Their speed was as swift as the wind and as fast as lightning, instantly leaving several afterimages where they stood, rushing towards the Mech Armored Warriors!
Zeus and Poseidon, meanwhile, unleashed their special abilities. In an instant, thunder surged wildly and waves roared, bombarding the Mech Armored Warriors who came to kill them!
"Chi-chi-chi!"
The daggers in San Liu and Nameless's hands were exceptionally sharp. With a single slice, they cut through the high-tech suits the Mech Armored Warriors were wearing and then slashed their throats.
In a few moments, they had killed seven or eight men.
Zeus and Poseidon, with their Natural System Special Abilities, might not match San Liu and Nameless in single combat, but in large-scale killings of those weaker than them, their efficiency was even higher!
"Zzzt-zzzt!!"
"Boom-boom-boom!!"
Thunder raged and lightning flashed. The Mech Armored Warriors in their high-tech suits were perfect conductors. In just an instant, Zeus had electrocuted more than a dozen to death.
They fell to the ground, their protective shields powerless and dropped, revealing faces blackened and charred like overcooked meat, still emitting a burnt stench as if they had been roasted.
Poseidon, on the other hand, summoned a huge tidal wave that swept away dozens of people within it; they instantly became drowning victims, eventually crushed to death by the immense water pressure!
In the blink of an eye, the mech armored warriors who had charged out of that grand estate were all slaughtered without exception.
Xiang Mantang stood to the side with his hands behind his back, looking very satisfied.
If he had come alone to find one of the creators of "Withered Tree Quest for Spring," it might have taken him several dozens of minutes just to deal with these subordinates.
And in that time, it would have been enough for that creator to board a helicopter and escape from his private island!
"Let's go!"
Having Zeus and Poseidon withdraw their special abilities, Xiang Mantang, with his hands behind his back, began walking step by step toward the manor.
"Boom!!"
At that moment, a roaring sound erupted.
From a high tower inside the manor, the windows on the topmost floor suddenly opened, followed by the setup of several Gatling guns, rocket launchers, and other heavy artillery, which began bombarding toward Xiang Mantang and his companions!
"Boom boom boom!!"
Xiang Mantang, with his hands behind his back, watched as rockets and bullets poured down on them. The faces of Zeus and others beside him drastically changed, and they hurriedly scattered to both sides.
He knew their thought was to first avoid this wave of bombardment, and then continue to press toward the manor, destroying the heavy artillery on top of the towers!
But Xiang Mantang remained indifferent, not at all fleeing like a street rat as they were!
"Realm Master, take cover first!"
Seeing that several of them were running to the other side, while Xiang Mantang remained standing in place, San Liu couldn't help but shout urgently.
Even as martial arts grandmasters, whose Protective Energy Mastery, when fully stimulated, could prevent bullets from killing them,
That was only for ordinary handgun bullets, and at most for stronger weapons, able to withstand rifles and submachine guns, but not including Gatling guns and rocket launchers!
Such heavy artillery, when fully unloaded, was difficult for even armored vehicles to withstand, let alone their mere flesh and blood bodies?
"No need!"
Xiang Mantang's expression was cold, and he still stood in place, unmoved.
And with their brief exchange, the terrifying firepower finally poured down near Xiang Mantang.
San Liu watched anxiously, thinking that Xiang Mantang was surely going to die right before his eyes.
However, the next scene made his jaw drop, as he began to question the reality before him!
"Ha!"
With a light shout from Xiang Mantang, just at the critical moment, he raised his arms in front of his chest, and instantly, a vast and boundless Heaven and Earth Vital Energy was drawn over with the movement of his hands.
Interweaving into a massive Elemental Qi Net, it caught all the terrifying firepower that was pouring down!
"This, this, this..."
San Liu and Nameless nearly had their eyes pop out. Weren't Xiang Mantang's tactics similar to the moves Lord of the Killing Realm used against them that day?
This was...
The power of a God Realm? Communicating with heaven and earth, with the wave of a hand, drawing upon the vast Heaven and Earth Vital Energy, able to kill within a hundred paces?!
He could be called a Terrestrial Immortal!!
When had Xiang Mantang also stepped into the God Realm?!
While San Liu and Nameless were astounded, Xiang Mantang once again shouted lightly, pushing his hands forward forcefully, and suddenly, the bullets and rockets that had been frozen in midair all reversed direction, reflecting back toward the manor miles away!
