Loud roars and the pandemonium of running people jolted Seth out of his impromptu sleeping bench in the noodle shack.
"What the hell is going on?..."
However, as he poked his head out of the small window, he almost wet himself. In his line of sight, a gargantuan dog like creature was running amok in the city. The screams of countless people being devoured by its toothy maw were deafening, but that did not even remotely affect Seth in the least as he immediately dashed out of the shack. Hell no, he was not some green haired superhero acting out of instinct as soon as he saw trouble, and would even break his arms and legs while delivering a massive blow to the enemy. Instead, he was trying to get as far away from the monstrosity as was humanly possible.
"Nope, I'm not dying as soon as I get another chance at life!"
He had managed to transmigrate and would not risk his neck for any reason, not even if this could be the very moment that he could get his own cheat. He would rather wait for a bit more time to obtain his own hidden cheat, rather than die at the maws of a dreadful monstrosity while trying.
He ran as fast as he could muster but only halted his steps as he saw a group of people confidently walking over to the scene of absolute, horrifying destruction. Their auras alone gave away the fact that they were extremely strong cultivators. At the fore front, Seth could spot a familiar face.
'The girl that bought noodles and forgot to pay, then beat me up?!'
Come to think of it, he did not really manage to catch her name.
Lee Chun Hua confidently walked to the front of the ensuring chaos then opened her mouth and shouted.
"Song of Terror!"
The Song of terror was a magnificent sword that flew by itself into her palms. Feeling the familiar hilt graze the inside of her hand, Lee Chun Hua smirked and turned to face the woman closest to her.
"Junior sister Han, make sure to aggro the beast and divert it's attention from the city. Senior brother Gu, please protect Junior sister Han..." Then she turned her head to face two men behind them.
"Elder Su, please cover me as I attack the beast and bring it down, and Senior brother Zhang, could you please make sure that no person crosses past you and gets caught in the chaos?
It was very obvious that Lee Chun Hua was a natural born leader.
"Go!"
Seth's eyes grew into gigantic orbs as the group of five, excluding the baldie Zhang that had to protect the citizens, took on a creature the size of a three storey building all by themselves. It was very impressive to say the least. The Han lady punched the sturdy creature a few times to attract its attention, then she successfully held her ground despite the resulting onslaught. She was a first stage Qi awakening tier cultivator and was not to be joked with.
"Iron body technique!"
Behind her, deflecting the stray attracts that threatened to throw the Han woman off balance, was the Gu person. The Gu guy was still an eight stage cultivator of the Body reinforcement tier, but he was definitely almost as good as she was. Lee Jingbei and Lee Chun Hua dashed towards the beast in a naruto run while avoiding all the attacks the beast made at the Han woman using it's tail, claws, and even teeth. Lee Chun Hua was much faster, and she managed to get on top of the beast in a matter of minutes, the Song of terror clutched tightly in her palms.
"Blazing Valor Fire strike!"
The beautifully crafted sword whistled quietly as it sliced through the air and landed on the head of the creature. The sheer amount of qi energy and immolating heat emanating from the single sword strike was enough to ripple the skies and send shivers down Seth's spine.
Seth, watching from far behind, could not help but leak out a gasp of administration. Could he perhaps have that much power one day when he found his own cheat? Anyways, he heaved a deep sigh of relief. In his eyes, the beast was already as good as dead.
However, Lee Chun Hua did not even remotely share his thoughts as her complexion paled considerably.
'It's regeneration rate is insane!'
Indeed as she kept using her Qi to supplement her sword and make the beautiful jian almost a thousand times sharper than usual, the beast kept regenerating its lost flesh almost as quickly as it was being destroyed. Then it happened that Lee Jingbei dodged another one of the beasts attack and shot threw his dagger at the tail of the beast swiftly approaching the extremely focused Lee Chun Hua, that he could see his own arm flying in the air instead. The Gu person gasped as his complexion paled.
"Elder! Your arm!!"
Indeed, Jingbei's entire arm from the shoulder downwards had been cleanly sliced off by one of the beast's deadly claws. The fact that he was an early stage cultivator of the Qi reinforcement tier made it far worse, as his body was far sturdier than theirs combined. He had reached the Qi Reinforcement tier, in which his body was always covered with an impenetrable layer of solid Qi. It was almost impossible to injure someone at this tier, but not only had Jingbei been injured, his whole arm was sliced off from the shoulder.
The Han woman frowned deeply, then turned her head to face Zhang Wei in the distance.
"Senior brother Zhang! We need backup."
The bald Zhang guy was not left behind to watch the citizens because he was weak, no. In fact, he was at the peak stage of Nascent Qi tier and was about to breakthrough into the Qi manipulation tier. It was because he was a healer. Lee Chun Hua had managed to foresee such a situation happening, and made Zhang wait in the background just in case one of them got injured. With Jingbei's injury, the battle had only just begun.
