Chapter 78: Killing the Mutated Beast

With his power doubled, Chen Chu let out a deafening roar as he slashed with his saber, still targeting the wound on the bull’s hind leg.

His objective was simple: to incapacitate the bull and leave it at his mercy to decide its fate.

Rip!

Harnessing the momentum from the charge of the mutated beast, Chen Chu's strike with the Wrath of the Wisdom King tore the wound further open, stretching it over ten centimeters. The tendons and fascia underneath were clearly visible, and hot blood gushed out from the artery.

Moo!

In the grip of searing agony, the mutated black bull unleashed an angry bellow, its thunderous charge coming to an abrupt halt. It unleashed a powerful kick from its robust hind leg, accompanied by a gust of wind, but Chen Chu narrowly sidestepped in the nick of time.

However...

While he evaded the kick from the bull's hind legs, he couldn't avoid its black python-like tail, which crashed into his shoulder and sent him hurtling into the wall of the cave with terrifying force.

The bull, however, couldn't maneuver in the smaller tunnel to turn around. At the same time, it didn't want to engage any further with this agile adversary.

After the cataclysmic bombardment from earlier, and the now three consecutive strikes, the bull sensed the looming threat of death. All it desired now was to flee and escape far away from this dreadful place.

With its master dead, there was no one left to provide it with sustenance anyway.

Moo!

The bull let out an exhilarated roar as it burst out of the cave. Its massive body thundered forward like a super tank, racing towards the mountain valley below.

Along the way, clouds of dust billowed, and everything in its path, whether crumbling buildings or wreckage blocking the road, was smashed to pieces upon impact.

Inside the cave, Chen Chu extracted his body from the stone wall. After suppressing the boiling vitality within him, his leg muscles swelled, and with a thunderous sound, he disappeared from the spot.

Watching the mutated black bull fleeing in the distance with a thunderous roar, Chen Chu chased after it frantically, shouting, "I killed your master! Don't you want revenge?"

Moo!

The bull let out a furious growl in response, but it didn't turn around, continuing to run down the mountainside without looking back.

With Chen Chu exerting his full power, however, he managed to gain a slight edge in speed over the bull. The distance between man and beast gradually closed.

Just then, several figures appeared on the slope ahead. In the faint glow of the burning flames, Chen Chu recognized Xia Youhui and the others. Unable to contain his excitement, he let out a long roar.

"The beast’s already wounded! Stop it!"

"Mutated beast!"

"It’s so big."

While Liu Feng and the others were astonished at the sight, Xia Youhui's eyes lit up. "The beast is injured?"

Without a second thought, he charged down the hill with his heavy shield.

Startled, Chen Chu hastily shouted, "Old Xia! You can't withstand its impacts!"

"What!"

By this time, Xia Youhui had already charged down the hill. A powerful and heavy aura erupted forth from the beast as it charged towards him, its body radiating an earthy glow.

Prompted by Chen Chu's reminder, Xia Youhui dodged to the side just in time, planting his heavy shield into the ground at an angle to block the bull’s path.

Boom!

The charging bull’s knees collided with Xia Youhui's shield, and under the tremendous impact, Xia Youhui was sent flying like a cannonball.

Crash!

He slammed into a partially collapsed brick house several tens of meters away. The walls crumbled with a resounding crash, kicking up a cloud of dust amidst falling bricks and debris.

It was still enough to bring the bull’s charge to a halt, however.

"Watch my Heavenly Pillar Strike!"

With a resounding cry, Li Hao leaped into the air, soaring over ten meters high. Gripping his three-meter-long, thigh-thick pillar, he brought it crashing down upon the head of the bull with formidable force.

A substantial shockwave erupted, even causing the bull to stagger two steps back from the impact, but it was only somewhat dazed.

"It's fine even after that?" Li Hao, feeling his arms go numb from the recoil, was surprised as he looked at the seemingly unaffected beast.

"Its head is its toughest part, of course it's fine."

With a thunderous stomp that shattered the ground beneath him, Chen Chu’s energy once again erupted as he unleashed the Wrath of the Wisdom King. In an instant, his speed doubled, and he appeared behind the bull as if he had teleported. Seizing the moment, he fiercely swung his incomparably sharp blade down.

With one swift stroke, Chen Chu completely severed the tendons and fascia of the bull's hind joint, revealing the thick, white, and sturdy joint bone underneath.

Moo!

The mutated black bull emitted a pained growl as its hind joint, deprived of the protection of tendons and muscles, could no longer support its massive body. With a snap, the joint broke, and it collapsed onto its side.

Liu Feng rushed down in his golden armor, excitedly exclaiming, "Wow, Chen Chu, you actually chopped off one of its legs! You've really done it this time!"

Chen Chu shook his head. "It's too early to celebrate. Just because it can't run doesn't mean it can’t deal damage."

In the midst of their conversation, Bai Mu, with three pairs of blazing angel wings on his back, Li Hao, and Xia Youhui, who had just emerged from the rubble, all joined up with them.

Gazing at the bull, which was over two meters tall even while lying down, Xia Youhui grinned and said, "This guy is incredibly strong. It must be a Level Three. Where did it come from all of a sudden?"

"One of the rebels raised it," Chen Chu replied. "Not only is it powerful, but its defense is also formidable, and it even has the ability to create ground-shaking shockwaves. Let's all attack together and take it down, then we'll share the rewards.Oh, and be careful of its tail."

The beast was more familiar with the terrain around here, and it was dark out to boot. If it hadn’t been for Xia Youhui and the others intervening, it would have actually escaped. They were just as deserving of the credit as Chen Chu was.

Of course, it also meant sharing the risk; he had only wounded the bull's hind leg, not killed it, and a cornered mutated beast was even more dangerous. None of them refused the offer, however, realizing the significant rewards they could gain here.

"Now that it's immobilized, we need to watch out for attacks from its mouth, horns, and tail. Old Xia, you shield the front to draw its attention. While it's focused on attacking Old Xia, Li Hao, you hit it with your pillar from the other side to disorient it. The rest of us will target its ears and eyes.

"If we can kill it, we will. If not, we retreat and find another opportunity."

"Alright!"

Xia Youhui let out a low shout, unleashing his formidable Black Tortoise true power. He charged forward, carrying his heavy shield without a hint of fear or hesitation on his face; he was born to be a shield, through and through.

Moo!

The immobilized bull's eyes were bloodshot, brimming with ferocity. Knowing it would probably die today, it forcefully thrust its horns towards the charging Xia Youhui.

Crash!

The shield, which was over ten centimeters thick and could withstand heavy machine gun fire, suddenly caved in under the sharp horns, and the tremendous force sent Xia Youhui flying backward. Without the momentum of a charge, however, he was only thrown about ten meters away, landing with a thud and rolling twice upon hitting the ground.

As soon as Xia Youhui was flung, Li Hao leaped high into the air, wielding his iron pillar in his grasp. With a thunderous crash, he brought it down upon the bull, the immense force of the blow slamming the massive head forcefully into the ground.

"Now!"

With fierce shouts, Chen Chu and Liu Feng, one on each side, thrust their blades towards the bull’s dazed eyes. Despite its resilient eyelids offering slight resistance, both of them pierced through, bursting its eyeballs.

Meanwhile, Bai Mu's sword precisely plunged into its ear, the blade sinking several tens of centimeters deep. With the successful strike, the three immediately let go of their weapons and backed away.

The mutated black bull let out a furious roar. Ignoring its injuries, it heaved its massive body back up, and its huge head swung violently towards Liu Feng and Bai Mu.

Thud! Thud!

Even though were only grazed by the bull's head, the immense force still sent them flying several meters away.

Crash!

Just as the frenzied bull stood up, it collapsed to the ground again due to the severed hind leg, writhing in agony on the ground.

The frantic commotion frightened everyone, causing them to hastily retreat. In such a situation, even their armor wouldn't protect them if they were crushed by it.

It took about ten minutes before the bull finally fell silent, its massive body lying motionless on the ground.
