Chapter 159: A Party Consisting of Invincible Vajra Level Cultivators

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio  Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

In that day and age, the slaughter of up to 10,000 people would immediately shake the entire country if the incident became widely known.

 “The authorities are putting a lockdown on the news now, but something this big is going to leak sooner or later.” Ming Yueyao sounded worried on the other side of the phone.

 There was just no way something that big could be kept quiet, after all, especially in the current situation, as officials had already made the decision to no longer place any lockdown on information regarding the world of cultivators.

 In truth, after the world had seen such an unprecedented scale of restoration of spirit qi, locking down information and news at such a scale would have been impossible anyway.

 There was also no doubt just how shocked the country would be when they heard the news that such a ferocious monster had killed so many people.

 “Where’s the Dragon?” Lu Xuan asked.

 He felt it was a bit unusual that it was not the Dragon who’d contacted him, given the gravity of the situation at hand.

 “The Dragon was ambushed by a giant tiger and a giant eagle playing tag team when he was out pursuing the tiger. He suffered severe injuries.”

 Ming Yueyao sounded somewhat unstable when she talked about this, and Lu Xuan was able to pick up on the shift in her tone. However, he remained silent and showed no other emotion.

 Lu Xuan could sense that all the major events in the world had shifted due to his reincarnation.

 In his memories from his past life, while those monsters had indeed rampaged in Mount Tai, the incident eventually came to a close without causing any serious problems.

 That was because back then, the Special Task Force had no way of taking on those monsters. The beasts were inherently stronger than humans in a physical sense, and that point had apparently become more pronounced after they became Invincible Vajras.

 They could only be harmed if they suffered a direct hit by the likes of rockets and missiles, as even the aftershocks of such attacks would still have a hard time breaching their hides and scales.

 That was why the monsters had been able to escape without causing so much chaos, and why no bloody battles had taken place.

 However, things had taken a different turn this time around. Thanks to the methods that Lu Xuan had shared, the Special Task Force had manufactured a good deal of runic ammunition. Still, they were only early prototypes, so they were incapable of blowing heads off beings as powerful as Martial Arts Legends or National Guardians.

 Nevertheless, the ammunitions were still capable of posing a huge threat to Invincible Vajras.

 All of the monsters were indeed injured when they were hit by those bullets, and the White Ape King’s injuries were especially severe.

 The White Ape King went berserk after suffering such grievous injuries, causing it to kill anyone or anything that crossed its path as it ran. Ultimately, it racked up a body count of nearly ten thousand.

 If it had not been for the White Ape King’s apparent desperation for escape, it might easily have killed over a hundred thousand people as it ran amok.

 That was why humans back in Lu Xuan’s past life had been so wary of those monster kings. Not only were they capable of commanding a huge number of wild beasts and monsters, which allowed them to kill countless people, but they themselves were also so powerful that they were basically walking nuclear weapons, with every outing they made causing a great number of deaths.

 These monsters couldn’t be stopped conventionally without using the likes of an atomic bomb, and no one could handle the consequences of using nukes unless the situation had really become extremely dire.

 The human governments back in Lu Xuan’s past life had eventually learned how to deal with the monster kings—they either left the monster kings alone or made sure that the monster kings were killed with a single hit. Only by doing so could consequences of greater severity be prevented.

 Human efforts to take out those monster kings caused retributive genocides to be carried out in the millions whenever the attempts failed.

 They learned these lessons the hard way, and all of these lessons carried a lot of blood and tears.

 “Where is the White Ape King now?” Lu Xuan asked with a frown.

 “According to the speculations of experts in the Special Task Force, the White Ape King’s target was the Shennongjia. Once it got there, the dense woods made sure that it was totally untraceable,” Ming Yueyao said.

 She sounded as if she was gritting her teeth as she said that. What the White Ape King had done that night had truly earned the ire of all members of the Special Task Force, and it wasn’t only because the chief of the Mount Tai branch had been killed in action.

 It was because it went on to kill so many thousands more people after that.

 In an era of peace, such news was almost like finding out a nuclear bomb had been detonated.

 “I won’t be able to make it in time, then,” Lu Xuan replied. He made a rough calculation. Even at an Invincible Vajra’s slowest possible speed, the White Ape King would probably already be near Shennongjia as they spoke.

 Lu Xuan couldn’t have made it in time even if he were capable of flight.

 There was no way he could stop the ape before it reached Shennongjia.

 The pace at which an Invincible Vajra moved was very terrifying, after all. They would have no problems scaling mountains along the way, which allowed such beings to move in a straight line almost all the time.

 They could easily move over a thousand kilometers in a single day under such circumstances, and that was what made them so terrifying.

 Invincible Vajras would have no problem at all with covering that much distance in a day, so long as their stamina held.

 Invincible Vajra level beings also only needed momentary rest to be able to completely return to peak condition.

 Beings at such a level were, in a manner of speaking, no longer conventional living beings. They had become something out of fairy tales and myths instead.

 Ming Yueyao stayed silent. What Lu Xuan told her hardly differed from the conclusions at which the Special Task Force’s myriad of experts had arrived. It was utterly impossible to intercept the monster before it got to Shennongjia.

 Countless elite forces had been taken out along the way. The White Ape King had apparently gained enough intelligence and power to make it think like a human.

 The monster king did not bother clashing with large forces, but the fact that they’d split up into smaller parties had allowed the monster king to wipe out many such smaller forces without breaking a sweat.

 It was not that the Special Task Force had not thought of intercepting the monster king. In fact, fighters from a myriad of branches along its escape route had been rallied to intercept it, yet all attempts remained futile. The White Ape King, which had already become an Invincible Vajra, was simply more than they could handle.

 She still remembered the suggestion provided by the experts, which was to bear with it for now. If they couldn’t find ways of gaining an upper hand against Invincible Vajra monster kings, then the best thing to do was just to stay their hand for the time being.

 “The experts from the headquarters suggested that we bear with it for the time being, just lay low and buy time, then wait for the opportunity to strike, but that simply doesn’t sit well with me.” Ming Yueyao’s voice sounded rather vexed by this.

 The losses they’d suffered were just too great, and the monster kings were running rampant, yet the best the Special Task Force was capable of was simply to sitting around and waiting.

 The Special Task Force had never suffered like that before.

 That was why Ming Yueyao had gone to look for Lu Xuan at once.

 “You’re hoping to have me take the animal out, then?” Lu Xuan’s brow twitched. The smirk on his face looked rather sheepish.

 On the other side of the phone, Ming Yueyao smirked with excitement as she replied, “Well, I wouldn’t dare to ask that of you. Those animals are all Invincible Vajra level beings, after all, and it would be very, very difficult to take them on, but it’s not like we have no chance against them. The Spiritual Tide that happened last night definitely benefitted more than just those monsters, and there are surely some humans who have become Invincible Vajras, too. I know of some clans and sects who had members that were already at Deity level to begin with. This was a very rare opportunity, one that probably enabled them to make further breakthroughs. I think that making such a breakthrough wouldn’t be so difficult for someone of your capabilities, so I’d like to invite you to join the operation to take out these monster kings.”

 “A party consisting of Invincible Vajra level cultivators, eh?” Lu Xuan grinned and continued, “That does sound interesting.”
