Chapter 364: Sky Sword
As for the second reason, the trial-takers might not all be enemies. In essence, they were all compatriots from the Earth.
Jerry was not cold-hearted. Although he would not take the initiative to help others, he would not leave them to die.
Jerry slowly pulled out the Sky Sword. He could not see any living things in his field of vision, but his divine consciousness told him that two streams of energy were approaching.
With a whoosh, two people rushed out from the Black Forest.
Their bodies were in a sorry state, and their eyes were filled with panic. Their clothes were covered in mud and had long been torn by the branches, but one could still vaguely feel its luxury.
“Looks like they are still two monarch-level trial-takers.”
Jerry said in his heart. His eyes swept over the two people, and then he asked, “Hey, what happened?”
However, the two of them did not say anything. Their running footsteps did not stop as they brushed past Jerry.
“There are actually other trial-takers on this island!”
Polos muttered to himself.
“The heavens are really helping me!”
“The mud monkey will definitely be attracted to this person. At that time, I will be able to escape!”
Polos had a wishful plan in his mind. Naturally, he did not have the mood to reply to Jerry’s question, much less the mud monkey behind him.
Then, Polos saw some people lying on the ground, and his mood became even happier.
So much bait, enough to hold the mud monkey back for a long time!
But after running another two steps, Polos could no longer laugh.
It was because this was also a swamp. What was displayed in front of Polos was a swamp that was as vast as a lake.
White bubbles swelled up on the mud, like pustules growing on the body of some huge creature. When they burst, white smoke would rise. When the white smoke met the poisonous fog, it made a sizzling sound. It was like two lumps of meat of different colors pressing against each other.
At the end of the swamp, many brown dots were lined up. They were all monsters!
The monsters looked at the swamp quietly. They did not dare to enter the forest, but they also did not give up and stayed in the distance.
Even though they were so far away, Polos felt a chill. He turned his head and looked over, Spicer’s face was pale.
“It’s a dead end!”
Polos shook his head in despair. His legs went weak and he sat on the ground.
If he still had a ship at this juncture, he could still leave.
However, the ship was only left with a pile of skeletons. Spicer’s treasure was also damaged and no longer could not be used.
His subordinates had all been used up as bait. Now that they had encountered a dead end, they had no means of escape.
The group of people on the swamp were not even enough to feed the mud monkeys!
There was only one person in the group could still stand upright. It was better to hope that the mud monkeys were vegetarians than to hope the group of people could repel the mud monkeys!
Polos felt dizzy when thinking about the next target of the mud monkeys being him and the sound of the stone hitting his head.
At this moment, Jerry was calm. He withdrew his divine consciousness and focused it on his side. The blue light in his eyes also shrank, but it became brighter.
He could feel three mud monkeys intruding into his divine consciousness.
Jerry raised his sword, at the same time, the three mud monkeys swung out from the tree.
Their bodies were covered with the same mud from the swamp. They had weird smiles on their faces. When they saw living creatures, they opened their mouths wide and let out strange cries.
“So noisy.”
Jerry waved his sword casually. A surge of divine power flowed rapidly along the veins on the muscles on his back. It passed through the body of the sword and gushed out from the tip of the sword!
With the imposing manner of a rainbow piercing through the sun, the sword qi formed by the divine power instantly killed the three mud monkeys!
Their bodies were cut in two, and their mouths were still open when they died, revealing their sharp fangs. After waving their arms a few times, they turned into a puddle of mud.
These three mud monkeys had slender limbs and could run a little faster. They were just the vanguard troops.
In Jerry’s divine consciousness, there were still countless mud monkeys shuttling through the forest, rapidly approaching!
If one compared divine consciousness to radar, at this moment, the display screen showed that there were densely packed dots of light representing the enemy, almost forming an irregular pattern!
In the blink of an eye, countless mud monkeys rushed out of the darkness and surged onto the swamp.
It was like a door to hell in the darkness. Ferocious monsters poured out from the nest, one after another, as if there were endless numbers!
Jerry took a deep breath. Majestic divine power surged out from all over his body. The light formed by the divine power wrapped around Jerry. It was a golden light that was purer than the sun.
The Sky Sword that was raised high was the symbol of the Lord of Holy Dynasty. It was the manifestation of power. At this moment, the body of the sword was flowing with the same golden light as its owner!
With a piercing sound, Jerry brandished his sword. The sword qi that was formed from the majestic divine power flew at a high speed with a heavy force!
The sound of firecrackers was heard in front of them. The mud monkeys that came into contact with the sword qi exploded in an instant. The fragments of their bodies were even finer than sand.
One must know that even a powerhouse like Ares, the God of War, could only smash the mud monkeys into fist-sized pieces with a spear throw.
Whereas the sword qi that Jerry unleashed was so powerful that it turned the mud monkey into fine sand!
The fine sand was very light and would not fall to the ground for a while. It floated in the air and formed a thick fog.
In the dark, the thick fog was like dark clouds at night. Jerry could even smell the rotting smell.
Tens of millions of tons of divine power flowed over the Sky Sword. It was still vibrating slightly and making a buzzing sound.
Jerry stretched out his index finger and lightly tapped the sword’s body to counteract the vibration. Only then did the Sky Sword finally quieten down.
Seeing this scene, Polos was so lost that he almost knelt down.
What happened in front of him was far beyond his imagination.
He only saw the person holding the sword lightly wave the sword, and a brilliant and dazzling sword qi was released. Any mud monkey that touched the sword qi could not survive, and even turned into fine sand. The fine sand then formed a fog, floating in the air above the island.
Although the mud monkeys looked disgusting, their strength could actually match a tier three god-king!
With a casual scratch, they could bury the lives of cultivators. This was something that Polos had witnessed with his own eyes. These mud monkeys were definitely not easy to deal with!
This was only the second level of the Endless Tower. The person with the highest cultivation level was only a tier three god-king. Beyond this level, there would be person-in-charge interfering and sending people to higher places.
In other words, the sword wielder’s strength was at most at the late stage of the tier three god-king.
Polos remembered that he was also at this level.
He was also at tier three god-king level, but he could only run when faced with the mud monkey!
The strength that he displayed was like the difference between the clouds and the mud when compared to the sword wielder!
“This is not realistic!”
“That sword… it must be the sword!”
