Chapter 77 - 77: Exploding with One Punch
Mutated Beasts, treasures in their entirety. After going through so much information about them, Jack Clark naturally wouldn’t let this Mutated Black Bull go.
But just when Jack Clark was preparing to burst forth with all his strength, the woman in the cave behind the distant mountain suddenly shouted, “This man is too flexible! Koi can’t handle him. You all attack together to restrict his movement.”
“Yes.”
“Seeking death.”
Upon hearing the woman’s voice, Jack Clark’s eyes instantly turned cold.
Those five men were not weak, all of them were cultivators. Even with average strength, their outstanding physiques and the modification of their Great Power Guns still posed a ‘small’ threat to him, especially as he was focusing on dealing with the Mutated Beast.
Just a single strike from the beast’s tail had several tons of strength. If its sharp bull horn hit him head-on, even the Strengthened Battle Armor would be pierced through.
As such…
Whoosh! Jack Clark’s figure disappeared from its location in an instant.
Upon seeing the fast-approaching shadow, the woman’s eyes narrowed, immediately shouting, “He’s coming, fall back. Block the cave entrance and suppress him with alternating shooting.”
In that instant, their group of five orderly retreated several meters, their Great Power Rifles targeting the entrance of the cave. Firelight exploded, and deafening roars ensued.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
The Great Power Guns, with their thickened muzzles and increased ammunition, had a massive recoil that would have shattered a normal person’s shoulder blade. They could only be used by cultivators.
Much like the Black Steel Pistol that Jack Clark carried on his waist, these were close-range weapons for dealing with same-level practitioners.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
With continuous firing from five Great Power Rifles, the cave interior echoed with deafening noise. Bullets as powerful as those from sniper rifles sealed off the entrance.
But what was the point of Jack Clark using so many attribute points to enhance his armor?
BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG!
The armored Jack Clark skated past the side of the cave, sparks flying as each large caliber bullet hit his chest, shoulders, and thighs.
Each bullet, more than ten millimeters in diameter, packing a terrifying kinetic energy within, had the power to puncture and even shatter a human body, but when they struck Jack Clark…
“How is this possible! Normal armor can only block rifle bullets, right?” The sight of Jack Clark making his way towards them amidst the gunfire sent a wave of fear across the faces within the cave.
BOOM!
Sweeping his blade, Jack Clark’s terrifying slash ripped through the raging wind. Almost too fast to follow with the naked eye, three First Layer Heaven Guards standing together were cleaved in half.
Instantly after killing these three, Jack Clark turned and kicked. His right leg, covered by the armor, swung through the air like a Battle Axe, causing a burst of air. In an instant, he was in front of the Second Layer Heaven guard to his left.
CRACK!
The forceful strength caused the enemy’s front gun muzzle to bend. His chest caved in, and he was violently kicked away, flying more than ten meters and crashing into the mountain wall.
Just then, the last rebel guard’s eyes hardened. Knowing there was no escape, he turned his gun muzzle, aiming directly at the back of Jack Clark’s head and pulled the trigger.
BANG! BANG! BANG!! Three consecutive large-power bullets roared out, sending shock waves through the air which were then caught by Jack Clark’s outstretched left palm.
Seeing the few deformed bullets, still smoking, caught in the palm of his hand, the guard who had just emptied his cartridge stared in disbelief.
From the Federation Special Forces Soldier’s aura, he could tell that their realms were the same. They were all at the Second Layer Heaven, but why was this guy so strong?
His Second Layer Heaven companion had been killed with a single blow. How did these bullets, which could easily blow an elephant’s head to smithereens at close range, end up being casually caught?
What about the razor-sharp kinetic energy, even if the armor defense was terrifying?
BOOM!
At the exact moment of the rebel’s distraction, Jack Clark directly gave him a devastating kick to the chest. With terrifying strength, the man’s chest collapsed, spurting blood as he flew towards the outside of the cave.
All this happened within a few seconds. It wasn’t until then that the woman recovered, her face turning pale as she shouted, “Don’t kill me, I am…”
Bam! Before she could finish talking, Jack Clark punched her head and blew it up with his left hand.
For this woman with a ruthless temperament, who could control the Mutated Beast, Jack would show no mercy. In his eyes, only a dead enemy was a good one.
At this time, the ground outside the cave rattled. When the Mutated Black Bull saw Jack’s punch kill the woman, a fierce light exploded in its eyes, filled with rage.
Moo!
Roaring, the over four-meter tall Giant Beast charged into the cave. Its colossal body almost filled the entire cave entrance, giving off a violent aura.
Boom!
The stampeding Mutated Black Bull ripped through Jack’s afterimage, and violently slammed into the wall deep inside the cave. Immediately, the entire cave shook, with countless bits of gravel falling.
Taking advantage of the moment the Mutated Black Bull hit the wall, Jack appeared behind it, his blade flashing like lightning, slashing towards its rear leg joint that was twice as thick as an elephant’s.
Rip!!
The sharp blade cut into the rear leg of the Mutated Black Bull, making a sharp, piercing sound, and finally left a two-centimeter deep, several dozen centimeters long wound, faintly revealing the dark red muscle beneath.
Even with a full-strength blow, Jack could only cut through the skin of this Mutated Beast; its defense was terrifying.
Sighing, Jack retreated explosively.
Bam! The Mutated Black Bull, sensing that it had been attacked, swung its tail. Like a black python slicing through the sky, it exploded the air within several meters in an instant.
Pity that Jack, nimble as a flea, couldn’t be hit by the Mutated Black Bull when forewarned of the attack.
Inside the dim cave, Jack, who had dodged the tail sweep, reappeared like a ghost next to its head, thrusting his sharply pointed blade straight at its eyes.
Moo!
Feeling the attack, the Mutated Black Bull abruptly lifted its head, its upper body and forelimbs rising high, then violently dropping.
Boom! The ground trembled, the invisible shockwave sweeping almost across the entire cave, shaking loose dust and sending countless bits of gravel flying.
But this time, Jack had only faked his attack, disappearing from where he was when its forelegs lifted.
The cave must be where the Mutated Black Bull was usually kept. The entrance was five meters high, and three “zhangs” (10.74 meters) deep was a stomach-like cave that was about twenty meters long and wide and ten meters high.
Digging a space this large must have taken a lot of effort, but usually, it was only enough for the Mutated Black Bull to turn around.
Such terrain was very advantageous for Jack. At the moment when the shockwave dissipated, he reappeared like a phantasm behind the Mutated Black Bull.
Squeak!!
The sharp blade precisely slashed at the wound on the rear leg joint. The cut felt like slashing through a tough, gel-like substance and had a lot of resistance, but it was much less defensive than its skin.
With one swipe, Jack tore a forty-centimeter long, five-centimeter deep wound, almost splitting open the side of the Mutated Black Bull’s rear leg, exposing even more vivid red tendons.
Moo!
In pain, the Mutated Black Bull let out an even more enraged roar, furiously whipping its thick tail behind, managing to hit Jack as he was retreating.
Bam!
Jack was like a bowling ball. Under one hit of the bull’s tail, he smashed into the cave wall eight meters away, the brutal force making his Qi Blood boil.
The very moment the blind cat hit the dead mouse, the Mutated Black Bull inside the cave turned around abruptly, its eyes savage, and with mad momentum, rushed violently towards him.
Boom! Gravel flew everywhere, smoke and dust pervaded the air.
This attack, besides blasting a crater several meters in diameter into the cave wall, did not harm Jack at all.
In this narrow cave, the massive size of the Mutated Black Bull was quite a handicap. The time it took for it to do one full rotation was enough for Jack to have made several rounds around the cave.
Moo!
The Mutated Black Bull roared in anger and immediately rotated its huge body, preparing to charge out of the cave.
It was not highly intelligent, but it too had realized that continuing to fight in this narrow space could cost it its life.
“Where do you think you’re going?”
