Chapter 29: The Earth-Shattering Explosion_1

Ma Xiaotao, Dai Yueheng, Ling Luochen, Chen Zifeng, Xi Xi, Yao Haoyuan, and Gong Yangmo, a group of seven people, were the weakest among them being Soul Kings.

To them, a distance of a thousand meters was hardly worth mentioning.

Outside the cave.

The crowd's gaze fell on Ma Xiaotao.

"Captain, do we have any plan?"

Chen Zifeng asked.

Ma Xiaotao was somewhat surprised, "Do we need a plan? With our strength, once we go in, won't it just be a frenzied slaughter?"

"Dai Yueheng and I will take the front, with Gong Yangmo in the central position. Everyone else will be on either side."

After speaking, she took the lead and walked into the cave, with everyone else following close behind.

Indeed, it was just as they had imagined along the way.

Upon entering the cave, it was a scene of chaotic slaughter.

With their strength, it was a complete crush against those who were generally below the Soul Kings, let alone those who didn't even have the Cultivation Level of a Soul Ancestor.

Dai Yueheng used his White Tiger Meteor Shower, and with one punch, he exploded a whole swath of enemies.

Ling Luochen's body erupted with icy power, freezing enemy after enemy into sculptures of ice as she passed.

Ma Xiaotao frowned slightly, "Ling Luochen, perhaps you shouldn't make a move. Save some strength, just in case I need you to bring enough power to assist me."

She discreetly transmitted her voice to Ling Luochen.

The latter's expression stiffened.

Ma Xiaotao... you're going too far.

But as dissatisfied as he was in his heart, he couldn't actually say a word of refusal to Ma Xiaotao.

Otherwise, after Ma Xiaotao had dealt with those small fries, she would turn around and clean him up.

"If I don't fight, then I won't. I'll be more at ease."

"What's wrong with slacking off? It's always the big shots who slack off."

Soon after, he walked shoulder to shoulder with Gong Yangmo, leisurely following the rest towards the depths of the cave.

...

"Crack."

Dai Yueheng's tiger claw effortlessly crushed the throat of a Soul King. His eyes showed contempt as he smirked, "I think, Soul Masters in the world can be divided into two types, those from Shrek and all the others.

Soul Kings from Shrek could exchange a few moves with me, but Soul Kings outside of Shrek are nothing more than chickens and dogs, easily defeated.

Given the strength of a bandit gang, let alone us, even the reserve team members, I think, would be able to handle them with ease."

Chen Zifeng chuckled at his words, "Vice Captain, could it be that it's not that they are too weak, but rather that you're too strong?"

Ling Luochen spoke somewhat uncomfortably, "Captain, since Dai Yueheng is capable of bearing the brunt, shouldn't you take a rest?"

In fact, she was trying to remind Ma Xiaotao that she still had the evil fire within her.

It's fine to indulge in tormenting the weak for a while, right?

But what if she really couldn't control it later? Then the one who would suffer would still be her.

Oh.

Right.

And there's Xu Sanshi waiting outside as a reserve team member...

Besides, why should she and Xu Sanshi endure pain after Ma Xiaotao has had her fun!?

Furthermore, if it weren't for the academy's requirements, she would be very reluctant to help Ma Xiaotao from the bottom of her heart.

For some reason, she just felt disgusted.

Xu Sanshi felt almost the same.

Every time, he was gripped by a feeling of unbearable pain.

However.

Before Ma Xiaotao could reply, everyone's expressions changed at the same time.

A cold voice came from the depths of the cave:

"Who are these kids daring to ruin my plans?"

"I'm very angry, and the consequences are severe!"

...

"Has another Soul King powerhouse hidden within the cave appeared?"

Upon hearing this voice, everyone was shocked at first, then joy appeared on their faces.

Because, if they could also slay this Soul King, then their mission would be deemed a perfect success.

But.

Unlike their joyful expressions, the surviving bandits inside the cave showed looks of horror.

There were even some who couldn't help but cry out, "My lord, please don't!"

With that, they even dropped the weapons in their hands, wanting to flee.

But...

Their bodies were no longer under their control.

"What's happening?"

"Why are these bandits so terrified?"

Everyone was dumbfounded at the sight.

Your boss has appeared, shouldn't you be fighting alongside your boss, bathed in blood?

But why is everyone running away?

"Hahaha, next, please enjoy the beautiful fireworks display I have prepared for you."

Suddenly, that gloomy voice resonated again from the depths of the mountain cave.

The crowd was still completely baffled.

"What the hell is this guy talking about?"

"How can we watch fireworks in this sunless mountain cave?"

Chen Zifeng was the first to come up with such a thought.

Could it be that the Soul King deep in this cave has gone mad?

However, the next moment, Gong Yangmo and Ling Luochen, who were behind everyone, exclaimed in unison, "Be careful, everyone!"

"Quickly use Soul Power for defense!"

They found that either the remaining bandits or the motionless corpses lying on the ground were all starting to swell.

Combined with the expressions of the bandits upon hearing the voice from inside the cave, they all had a bad premonition.

Even when Ling Luochen shouted this, she had already released a soul skill.

Two shields, like eggshells, encased her and Gong Yangmo next to her.

As for whether they could withstand the upcoming attack, she had no confidence.

But she had done her best.

By contrast.

Those like Ma Xiaotao, Dai Yueheng, Chen Zifeng, and Xi Xi, who were slow to react and hadn't managed to defend in time, were even more concerning.

Boom boom boom.

The deafening roars rose one after another within the cave.

The terrible explosions filled the narrow cave with the flying flesh and blood of the poison-infected corpses.

Ma Xiaotao, Dai Yueheng, and others, unable to defend in time, could only desperately try to escape and dodge, looking very abject.

But the cave was so narrow, where could they hide?

During the more than ten seconds of explosions, their figures were no longer visible.

It's worth noting that the explosion caused by the Soul King, whose neck had been snapped by Dai Yueheng, was the most violent.

So...

Dai Yueheng, who was closest to that Soul King, was in an especially tragic state.

At the same time.

A kilometer away.

Lazing under a large tree with his legs crossed, gnawing on a chicken leg, Xuan Zi's expression suddenly changed.

With a plop,

The chicken leg in his hand fell to the ground.

But as if he didn't notice, he made no move to pick it up.

"Elder Xuan, your chicken leg has fallen..."

Wang Yan reminded Xuan Zi softly.

He also couldn't help but wonder, did Elder Xuan have another mental spell, causing him to not even be able to hold a chicken leg?

However.

As if Xuan Zi hadn't heard him, his expression went from vacant to angry, and then to ferocious.

A terrifying aura burst forth from inside him, sweeping across all directions like a tidal wave.

Upon seeing this, Wang Yan shuddered and involuntarily stepped back.

Simultaneously, the powerful presence from Xuan Zi caused many reserve team members to fall to the ground.

But Xuan Zi paid them no mind, turning into a streak of light as he flew toward the cave.

After a moment, his angry voice spread out:

"Who dares to harm my Shrek students?

You're seeking death!"
