Chapter 928: How dare you slack off?
Everyone put in their best effort.
No matter what moves you have, the point is to keep attacking relentlessly, without any hesitation!
Gu Heng stood at the very edge of a demon ship. While others were showing off their skills, he was not.
Regardless of whether his mediocre cultivation level is sufficient in the Epoch Graveyard, he only knows a little about swordsmanship and has no ranged attack methods, so he can only fight in close combat.
Jumping off the boat and slashing wildly with his sword would be a bit reckless, and he didn't want to be overwhelmed by countless tomb beasts, so he could only take a break and fish for a while.
but.
Gu Heng did have the opportunity to observe those tomb beasts very carefully.
The deputy tomb master is right. This is the outer perimeter of the lair, and most of the tomb beasts are weak. They look ferocious and strange, but apart from him, every cultivator on the ship can kill hundreds of them with one move, and some can even annihilate thousands at once!
perhaps.
This is all thanks to the pills and magical artifacts that the deputy tomb master distributed before we set off...
Perhaps this demon ship also has the effect of increasing everyone's power?
Who knows.
Even though the tomb guardians could fight against thousands, the number of tomb beasts was still too great. With hundreds of tomb guardians working at full strength, it seemed that they could only wipe out a small portion of the dark beast tide, and then more tomb beasts would fill the gaps.
The tomb guardians fought fiercely, and the tomb beasts fought back fiercely, countless of them leaping up and charging straight at the demon ship. But the demon ship was enveloped by some force, its defenses impenetrable. The tomb beasts were utterly helpless against it; in fact, the defenses themselves had a counter-effect, instantly incinerating any tomb beasts that rammed into it…
The current situation is a one-sided massacre!
“Xi Tong, you’re right, these tomb beasts really don’t have flesh and blood…”
Gu Heng observed carefully and found that when the tomb beasts were blasted apart, they would turn into a black mist and dissipate without a trace of flesh or blood. This seemed to confirm what Gu Xitong had said: these tomb beasts were not "living beings".
It is a "natural phenomenon" that can be artificially dispersed!
"Of course I'm not wrong. Seeing through the essence is not difficult for me."
Gu Xitong's icy blue eyes flickered, as if a vast ocean of information flowed through them.
...The sky gradually darkened from bright, and then brightened again.
Repeatedly.
The eight demon ships, led by the seven deputy tomb masters, have already advanced quite a distance into the lair.
As time went by, the once vast and expansive tide of tomb beasts that covered the earth showed no signs of drying up.
The tomb beasts remained fearless, surging forward like moths to a flame!
In contrast.
The vast majority of the tomb guardians were unable to withstand the continuous fighting for several days and had to stop to take pills to restore their energy and then meditate to absorb the medicinal power.
but.
The dozen or so hall masters still haven't made any moves.
They remained calm and collected, secretly gathering their strength...
But Gu Heng saw that Wu Zhao was itching to fight, so he casually made a move.
As a result, he saw the vast blood energy condense into a fist shadow, which almost instantly annihilated countless tomb beasts into black mist!
The sheer scale and commotion were far greater than the combined might of hundreds of tomb guardians!
Gu Heng was quite shocked by what he saw.
Is this the peak of the Nirvana Realm, the strength that makes one "unique among all realms"?
However, Wu Zhao did not continue to attack, only taking it as a pleasure to crush ants.
"Tsk, everyone's making a move, is it really appropriate for me to just keep watching?"
Gu Heng leaned against a corner where almost no one noticed him, muttering to himself.
Gu Xitong stood silently to the side, without saying a word.
He watched as the dozens of people on his magic ship began to take turns on duty to reduce their wear and tear, while he, just like at the beginning, did not contribute a single bit of effort.
It wasn't that he didn't want to, it's just that jumping down for close combat really felt like suicide.
Although nearly half the people on the ship were from Wu Zhao, they didn't show any dissatisfaction that Gu Heng was slacking off...
However, the ship did not only contain people from Wu Zhao's faction.
soon.
That's when trouble started.
"Hey, you! I've been watching you for ages!"
At this time.
Just then, a man came up to Gu Heng.
He seemed to be from a magical civilization, wearing some kind of old-fashioned mage robe. He also had a somewhat naturally repulsive appearance. He was pale and panting; Gu Heng had seen him earlier as well. He unleashed dozens of massive spells, blasting the tomb beasts below into a chaotic mess!
He was exhausted; he was even swaying as he walked.
"Are you planning to do absolutely nothing?"
The man stared at him coldly.
Not contributing?
He thinks too!
But he doesn't know any ranged attacks, so jumping down would be suicide.
I might get called an idiot by these people later.
Gu Heng was struggling with his own thoughts when he suddenly noticed several unfriendly gazes coming from the side. He turned his head slightly and caught a glimpse of several members of the tomb guardians looking at him, their eyes filled with undisguised contempt.
"Ha, some people are so leisurely, they can't even be bothered to put on a show." "Exactly, we're working ourselves to the bone, and he's just watching the show, acting like he's here for sightseeing?"
One person spoke in a sarcastic tone, and the other echoed him, his voice full of sarcasm.
"Gentlemen, it's not that I don't want to help, but I simply lack the ability."
Gu Heng sighed.
Not contributing?
He thinks too!
But he doesn't know any ranged attacks, so jumping down would be suicide.
I might get called an idiot by these people later.
"Not just you, but also the one next to you!"
Gu Heng's explanation clearly failed to gain their approval, and they turned their disapproving gazes to Gu Xitong beside him. This pair, quietly staying in the corner, looked rather odd. But no matter how odd they seemed, they couldn't just stand by and do nothing!
Gu Xitong, who was being targeted, remained silent and simply turned her gaze to those people.
Those cold eyes, devoid of any emotion, sent a chill down their already weary bodies with their mere gaze!
"Ahem, this is my sister. Please do not offend her."
"There are times when I'm putting in the effort. Instead of coming to cause trouble for me, you should save your strength and keep fighting."
Gu Heng quickly stepped in to smooth things over, while also secretly pinching Gu Xitong.
She frowned, a hint of human dissatisfaction flashing across her lowered eyes, but ultimately remained silent, simply stepping aside.
"Are you guys looking to die?"
At that moment, a heavy, imposing force pressed down on those people!
Turning their heads, they saw Wu Zhao glaring at them with a face full of anger. This person from the martial arts civilization seemed to have an invisible pressure, or perhaps they had heard of Wu Zhao's name before, so they obediently retreated.
Indeed, instead of wasting time arguing, it's better to get the work done quickly.
This way, everyone might have a chance to leave the Epoch Graveyard.
"Brother Gu, don't worry about those guys."
Wu Zhao was already sweating profusely.
It almost happened!
This ignorance and fearlessness is truly harmful.
