Endless Road: Asura's Extraordinary Journey

Chapter 35 The battle in the mansion a few days ago

"what have you done?"

An angry question echoed in the mansion. The middle-aged man in the mansion stared at the little boy in front of him with burning eyes. The guards on the side lowered their heads and said nothing.

"Detailed description! Don’t miss a word!"The man ordered. The guard then began to narrate the events of the day. As the narrative progressed, the man's anger grew stronger and stronger.

"Why did I raise such a waste like you! Do you know how much trouble you have caused?"The man asked angrily. The one who roared was none other than Master Luo Mei. He had just learned about what his son had done to the Gu clan members and was in a state of extreme anger.

"Dad, I'm sorry, I really don't know," the boy said apologetically, but Lord Luo Mei fell on deaf ears.

"This is the result of me spoiling you! What should I do?"Lord Luo Mei paced back and forth, falling into deep thought.

"I had to apologize to the person in person. Even if I am an adult of the Kingdom of Fear, if this kid really wants to destroy our family, I only need to say one word. Even the king dared not interfere, especially since my son had made a mistake."Lord Luo Mei paced back and forth, completely ignoring his son in front of him. After careful consideration, he made a decision.

"We need to hand over the heirloom. Only in this way can we express our deepest apology. Hopefully this will appease their anger. Lord Luo Mei thought to himself. He stopped and said to the guard:

"Find me where this kid is hiding, and once you find it, notify me immediately"

"obey."After the guard responded, he quickly left the room.

Lord Luo Mei looked at the trembling son in front of him, and the anger in his heart ignited again."It seems that I have indulged you too much in the past few years. You have to pay for it!"

Long, painful screams echoed throughout the family grounds that night....

High in the dark night sky under the bright moon.

Gu Ling wore a distinctive black robe. Normally he wears robes bearing the family crest, but this black robe has no crest on it. He wore a mask, hiding his true face.

Gu Ling turned around and glanced around, and found that other cultivators were also wearing black robes and masks. Due to the special nature of the mission, everyone chose dark clothes and masks to hide their identities.

"Don't be nervous, I'll cover you if anything happens. Lei Ting patted Gu Ling's back to show comfort. He mistakenly thought that Gu Ling's silence was due to nervousness and tried to ease his emotions.

Just as Gu Ling was about to respond, a voice came from behind.

According to the information I got, Luo Mei All of your Lord's Qi Condensation Guards have left to perform some kind of escort mission. As far as I know, there is currently only one late-stage Mist Creation Guard and a few mid-level Mist Creation Guards in your residence. So, now it's us The best time to act.

The man with a mustache stopped and glanced around all the practitioners to make sure they heard what he said clearly.

"The target of this mission is the spear. As far as I know, the spear is supposed to be in the lord's vault, which is in the basement of the mansion. My sources tell me that the protection of your lordship's vault is quite weak, which undoubtedly provides an opportunity for us to exploit. I guess he initially thought having the Air Guards around would be enough to protect everything, but apparently over time he became overconfident."

"Your mission is to infiltrate the lord's mansion, eliminate any guards you encounter, and then find the spear and bring it back to me. Whoever brings back the weapons will be handsomely rewarded. Any questions?"

No one present raised any objections.

"Great, it's late at night and it's the perfect time for us to take action. Wish ya'll good luck." said the man with a mustache.

After receiving the instructions, the group set off immediately. Soon after, they came to a small hill overlooking the residence of the lord. The lord has a prominent position in the kingdom, so he controls A huge manor and a lot of land. His territory was for several kilometers around.

Standing high up, they could see a majestic mansion in the center of the plot, surrounded by many smaller buildings. The lush Gardens decorate the land, while the large pond behind the mansion shimmers brilliantly in the moonlight.

Although there is no official leader for this mission, most practitioners follow the command of the old man with a mustache by default, because His cultivation level is the highest.

After observing the situation in the mansion for a while, the old man said:"I will deal with the late-stage Mist Creation Guard. The rest of you make your way to the shelter, taking out any other guards you encounter along the way. Let's take action."

Gu Ling and the others nodded silently and began to quietly approach the mansion a few kilometers away.

After a while, the group came to the wall outside the mansion. The old man glanced at the wall and then jumped over lightly..The rest of the people followed and sneaked into the mansion quietly.

Two guards were guarding the main entrance of the mansion. They talked lazily, completely unaware of the danger that was about to come.

At this moment——

"Do it!"With a low cry, a sharp sword light pierced the night sky, instantly slashing at the two guards. In their frightened eyes, the sword light passed across their necks, and their heads fell to the ground. They fell weakly. On the ground, his eyes were wide open, full of disbelief.

Gu Ling narrowed his eyes and stared at the white-haired man. With his level of cultivation alone, he should be able to easily restrain the two guards without attacking them. Causing fatal injuries. Their deaths were unnecessary.

Although Gu Ling had objections to the man's behavior, he understood that now was not the time to argue. So, he hid his thoughts deeply

"It seems that this is the cruel reality of the world of cultivation. The strong oppress the weak, while the weak can only wait helplessly to die."Gu Ling thought silently in his heart. This scene once again inspired his inner desire to become stronger.

"Only by constantly getting stronger can you control your own destiny."

After killing the two guards, the white-haired man motioned for the group to move on. Gu Ling and others stepped over the corpses and entered the interior of the mansion. It was late at night, and the mansion was dark, with only a few lanterns glowing faintly.

"The vault is in the basement, and the stairs to the basement should be behind those doors on the opposite side of the room. let's go."The white-haired man whispered.

The group continued to move forward, passed through the large room, and finally found the stairs to the basement. They slowly walked down the stairs and soon came to the basement.

This basement was very huge, more like A cave, not an ordinary basement. It is tens of meters high, extends for hundreds of meters, and is also hundreds of meters wide. There are many side doors next to the walls of the basement, which seem to lead to other rooms.

At the other end of the basement, there is a huge door The vault door should be the entrance to the vault. There are two guards standing on both sides of the vault door, talking.

"There isn't much cover between here and the vault door, so it looks like we're going to have to resort to brute force."The white-haired man whispered,"I didn't see any late-stage Mist Creation Realm guards around, so he must be somewhere upstairs. You continue forward, take out the remaining guards, and see if you can break into the vault. I'll stay here just in case the later Mist Creation Realm Guards pop up. Go ahead and do it."

Due to the special nature of the task, the white-haired man did not use his spiritual consciousness to explore the entire mansion. Unless someone is at a higher level of cultivation, once their spiritual consciousness is released, it will be intercepted by the spirit of the person being explored. The group quickly rushed towards the guards. With very little cover available, the guards were almost immediately aware of the intruders' presence.

"There is an intruder!"A guard shouted as he drew his sword.

Almost at the same moment, several side doors were pushed open, and nearly a dozen guards rushed out. The two groups of people quickly approached each other, and both sides launched the most violent attacks. Attack.

Boom! A huge explosion resounded throughout the mansion. Mr. Luo Mei, who was originally sleeping, was awakened. He quickly jumped out of bed and walked to the door. At this time, the door was pushed open from the outside.

"Andy, what's going on? What is that sound?"The Lord asked. The person who was talking to the Lord was the late Mist Creation Realm Guard. He was guarding the Lord's room when he suddenly heard a loud noise. He immediately entered the room to check on the Lord, and only relaxed after confirming that everything was fine. in one breath

"I'm not so sure either. The sound seemed to come from the basement. Andy replied,"I will stay here to protect you.""

"What nonsense," replied the lord,"and went downstairs to see what was going on."

Andy bowed quickly, then turned and ran down the long corridor downstairs.

Curse. Really, something always happens when my most powerful guard is not around," the Lord muttered.

Back downstairs, Gu Ling found himself standing in front of the vault. When the two groups clashed, Lei Ting instructed Gu Ling to go to the shelter and try to enter it

"He obviously wanted to keep me away from the Mist Creation Guards in the middle level. I guess he is actually protecting me," Gu Ling thought as he stared at the vault.

Although Gu Ling was strong enough to join the fight behind him, he thought this was indeed the best course of action. If he could enter the vault and take the items Put it in, and the mission is completed, and they can leave. Gu Ling wanted to fight, but he realized that now was not the best time to freely carry out the mission

"This vault looks really strong," Gu Ling thought as he pulled out his giant sword and slashed towards the vault.

Landslide Sword!

With a loud noise, Gu Ling's sword hit the vault. A steel dome appeared on Got a big dent, but other than that it seemed fine

"My mountain sword doesn't seem to work. It seems that I have no choice but to go all out," Gu Ling thought as he put away his giant sword and pulled out his sickle. Although Gu Ling now has a fog-making giant sword, its quality is slightly inferior to his Sickle. Compared to this weapon, he can release less power from the Sickle.

Gu Ling has been hesitant between using his Sickle and the Wanyan Sickle Combat Art because using it requires consuming a lot of energy. Angry. But he realized that there was no other way to break the treasury.

Gu Ling took a deep breath, held the scythe tightly, raised it above his head, and chopped with all his strength.

Countless annihilation scythes!

The scythe swept towards the treasury like a broken bamboo, and the blade cut through it easily A solid dome. Gu Ling gritted his teeth and continued to swing the sickle downwards.

Boom!

There was a loud noise, and the vault door was cut in half diagonally.

Gu Ling pushed the vault door, trying to push it open , but it was still embedded tightly in place. Although Gu Ling could see the other side through the cut in the vault, he could not enter it. A huge roar echoed behind him, and the battle between the two groups continued continue

"Again!"Gu Ling shouted and gripped the sickle tightly again. The previous time he used a diagonal cut to the left. This time his target was the vault and he was going to cut diagonally to the right. In this way, the bottom of the vault will be in contact with the vault door. The rest of the part detaches so he can push it aside and gain access

"I've already depleted more than half of my ki reserves and this attack will drain most of my energy. Next, I can only rely on my realm Dantian and physical cultivation. Even so, I am still strong enough to protect myself."Gu Ling thought to himself, while steadying the sickle in his hand.

At this moment, Gu Ling deeply felt the magic of having double Dantian. Even if he faced the dilemma of exhausted Dantian Qi, he was fearless. Most cultivators, when their Qi is exhausted, Basically, he will become powerless. But Gu Ling has his spherical dantian and strong physical body as support. What is more worth mentioning is that his realm dantian is in the middle fog realm, which is stronger than himself.

"It's a pity that I don't have strong physical training and combat skills. Otherwise, with my Ball Element Dantian in the middle stage of the Mist-making Realm, I will definitely be able to break through this door more easily. Gu Ling thought in his mind.

Using all his strength, Gu Ling used the Annihilation Scythe strike again! After a loud noise, his scythe successfully opened the vault door. Gu Ling kicked the bottom of the vault hard, and the vault fell off, revealing a hole

"Success! Gu Ling shouted excitedly, his face slightly pale. Although his spherical Dantian could still provide energy, Gu Ling still felt uncomfortable facing the almost empty Dantian.

Just as Gu Ling was about to pass through the hole in the wall, something suddenly happened behind him. There was a sharp attack, piercing directly into his back.
