Gu Qijue's arrival finally allowed Zhao Hu and the others to breathe a sigh of relief.
Zhao Hu stepped forward and asked in a low voice, "Master, what exactly is the monster in the dark? It comes and goes without a trace. We didn't even get to see its form, yet we lost over ten brothers."
In his view, Gu Qijue was all-knowing.
The crowd slightly calmed the fear in their hearts and listened intently.
"Deceitful Mutant Creatures are those that mutate again after human deformity. These monsters are eerie, cruel, cunning, and solitary. Each one is incredibly powerful. Encountering them almost guarantees a dead end."
Gu Qijue gazed at the pair of crimson eyes in the darkness, not expecting such deceitful mutant creatures to appear in such a short time.
"Brother Black Dragon, are you confident in dealing with it?" Ji Shang, somewhat nervous, voiced the question everyone most wanted to know.
After all, they could only rely on him.
If even he couldn't handle it, they might all perish here.
"Ji Shang, hand me your weapon!"
Gu Qijue looked at him, realizing the previous tachi was inadequate against such deceitful mutant creatures, and he needed a proper weapon.
"Here!"
Without a second thought, Ji Shang handed both Asura Battle Blades to Gu Qijue.
Then, he summoned an Asura Long Spear.
His Asura Super Martial Arts was a Saint Tier Super Martial Arts, possessing a total of three sets of weapons: battle blade, long spear, and bow.
A series of strange laughter echoed from the darkness where the crimson eyes flashed.
However, at this time, the sun slowly rose, a tinge of dawn broke the horizon.
When a ray of dawn shone into the darkness,
everyone saw it.
It was a monstrous creature, incredibly hideous, with three eyes, a mouth full of sharp fangs, gray skin, a left hand like a claw, a right hand like a blade, a tail, a row of bone spikes on its back, and two bloody mouths on its chest.
It was small in stature but looked extremely fierce.
Its left hand was flexible like a blade, its right claw sharp like an eagle's talon.
The three eyes were filled with bloodthirsty frenzy and terrifying magic, seeming fearless, like an absolute ruler, gleaming with a cold, bloodthirsty, brutal light.
Seeing such a monster, everyone shuddered involuntarily.
Because it was devouring a heart.
Mouth full of blood, eyes cold and merciless.
"White Fox, take everyone and head this way..."
"The Mutated Fruit is very important to us, crucial to whether you can quickly increase your power."
Gu Qijue glanced at the monster, took out his phone to locate a Deformed Tree growing place, and let White Fox lead everyone there.
Zhao Hu glanced back and said, "Master, be careful, we'll wait for you over there."
Saying this, under White Fox's lead, everyone ran off.
Jie Jie Jie——
The deceitful mutant creature didn't intercept; its gaze remained fixed on Gu Qijue, as if seeing the most delicious food, its long, pointed tongue licking its lips.
Whoosh!!
The next moment, the deceitful mutant creature transformed into a gray shadow and disappeared on the spot with a swish, moving so fast it was almost in the blink of an eye. Its left claw tore toward his chest, and its right blade slashed toward his neck.
Such swift assaults, even the Rat King Gu Qijue killed last night and Cute Treasure encountered, wouldn't escape without fatal injuries.
However, Gu Qijue reacted extremely quickly, his Asura Battle Blade encased in Black Dragon Power, clang-clanging to block the deadly strike of the deceitful mutant creature.
The terrifying power knocked the deceitful mutant creature back several meters.
Boom!!
Gu Qijue gave it no chance to react, charging up violently with a boom, his battle blade slashing seven to eight times per second, terrifying blades of light thundering over.
The deceitful mutant creature howled, eyes flashing with blood, brandishing blade and claw to confront him.
Clang-clang! Clang-clang!!
The deceitful mutant creature's claws and blade were like they were cast from metal, sparking wildly as they clashed with Gu Qijue's Asura Battle Blade, ringing with piercing clangs.
Their attacking and moving speeds were remarkably fast; within a few blinks, they fought away from the street.
Boom-boom——
Wherever they passed, if obstructed, the obstructions were penetrated by their attacks.
Bam! Boom!!
After hundreds of rounds, Gu Qijue, as if wielding a force of ten thousand tons, kicked the deceitful mutant creature flying away fiercely.
Under the impact of the immense power, the deceitful mutant creature crashed through a whole building before coming to a stop.
It howled as it got up, blood oozing from its mouth, fearfully glancing at Gu Qijue through the hole it had crashed through. Without any hesitation, it turned and ran.
"Stay!"
Gu Qijue let out a cold snort, no longer concealing his strength, as dragon scales, dragon horns, and a dragon tail sprouted from his body. With a boom, he transformed into a human-shaped tyrannosaurus and pursued.
The twice-evolved deceitful mutant creature, if devoured, could help Gu Qijue advance to Tier Four. How could he let it escape right under his nose?
Rumble——
Gu Qijue's speed was astounding, Dragon Might mighty, within mere breaths, closing to within four meters of the deceitful mutant creature. Suddenly, violent Black Dragon Power erupted from his body, two dragons howling out from behind, entwining the deceitful mutant creature with two thumps.
While the latter struggled and howled continuously,
Puff!!
Under the Black Dragon's binding, the deceitful mutant creature, unable to move, watched as its head was cut off by Gu Qijue.
In an instant, blood spurted like a fountain, spraying quite a bit onto Gu Qijue.
After slaying this deceitful mutant creature, Gu Qijue commanded the two dragons behind him to feast greedily.
With each bite swallowed,
a powerful heat wave swept through Gu Qijue's body.
With each bite, he evolved toward Tier Four.
As the Tier Four breakthrough approached,
Gu Qijue suddenly felt currents of electricity surging within his body.
Boom! Bang! Crack!——
Upon consuming the final bite of the deceitful mutant creature, at the same time as Gu Qijue ascended to Tier Four, black thunderbolts crackled and popped within his body.
Meanwhile, Gu Qijue was amazed to discover,
within his brow, as if a mysterious space started to open.
This mysterious space was shrouded in gray mist.
Overhead, a sea of black thunder floated and sank.
In the center of the thunder sea, a Thunder Dragon Sword visible to the naked eye was forming.
"This is..."
Gu Qijue showed a different expression as the Thunder Dragon Sword took form. With a mere thought, the lightning-wrapped Dragon Sword appeared, floating before him.
This Black Dragon Thunder Sword emanated a destructive aura, born entirely for annihilation.
Under its aura, the Asura Battle Blade in Gu Qijue's hand suddenly seemed dull.
"I also have my own natal weapon now."
Gu Qijue returned to his normal state, retrieved the Thunder Dragon Sword, and disappeared from the place in a few flickers.
Tier Three and Tier Four form a significant watershed.
The Black Dragon Power within Gu Qijue turned into black thunder.
Moreover, his physical body was elevated by several levels.
