I bear witness to immortality in the human world.

Chapter 101 Wu Ming Appears
Can't stop!
Seeing the rock serpent flick its tail so easily that even dozens of soldiers combined couldn't resist it, the centurions' hearts sank.

The combined spear formation could not break through the defenses, and the combined shield formation could not resist. Even with more than a thousand people, it was difficult to contend with this three-transformation rock serpent demon. It was likely that the army formation would be destroyed in just a few rounds!
Once the military formation is destroyed, the hordes of demons and wild beasts that roam the mountains and plains will cross the border and invade the area near the city, wreaking havoc on countless villages in the area. Just thinking about it makes one realize how serious the situation will be.

"..."

Zhou Huai'an's face was gloomy. He let out a low shout and waved his long sword repeatedly. He was a little anxious and wanted to kill the long-armed ape demon in front of him quickly. However, although the long-armed ape demon was not strong, it was good at defending but not good at attacking. Its long arms blocked and parried, and it was difficult to defeat it in a short time.

Although Zhou Huai'an took advantage of the lull to wield his blade and leave some wounds on the gibbon demon, those wounds were not deep and far from fatal, and did not even affect the gibbon demon's movement.

"A barrage of whistles! Calling for help!"

Li Minggang was also entangled by the Silver Moon Demon Sable at this moment and could not get rid of it at all. At this time, he could only shout loudly.

In the distance, a centurion immediately nocked an arrow and fired two whistling arrows into the sky. The two rapid whistling sounds echoed through the heavens. The messages conveyed by the whistling arrows were all the same: the first whistle was a summons, the second was a request for help, and the third was an unprecedented disaster that had to be reported to the two chiefs immediately.

The situation is critical, and we have already used the second call for help. This call for help is not only to ask other camps in the surrounding area for help, but also to ask all the martial artists in the vicinity for assistance.

but,
The whistle arrow was fired, and before there was any response, the rock serpent had already charged into the army formation, sweeping all the way through.

Wherever it went, dozens of soldiers, even with their giant shields, could not resist. With a single tail whip, it sent them sprawling. Many soldiers even showed fear, their arms trembling, and it seemed they would collapse before any reinforcements could arrive.

But right now.

"retreat!"

A calm, deep shout instantly echoed across the chaotic battlefield.

The battlefield was originally a scene of chaos, with people and horses falling and screams of pain, fear, and shouts echoing everywhere. Ordinary people here would have their eardrums ringing and wouldn't be able to hear the shouts at all. But this cold, silent shout contained a certain power, which spread out instantly and rang in everyone's ears, forcibly silencing the chaotic battlefield!
In the city guard camp, all the centurions paused, turning their heads to look. They saw a dark figure rushing towards them across the plain behind them. The figure was incredibly fast and had already reached them. Ignoring the chaotic army formation in front of him, the figure leaped into the air.

With a light leap, he was a full eighteen feet off the ground, and in one go he traversed seven or eight feet!
"Who's coming?"

The night patrolmen in the midst of the chaos also noticed that swift black shadow. Just by looking at the agility of its movements and the elasticity of its leap that could lift it a foot off the ground, they knew that the person had profound martial arts cultivation and must have reached the third stage of blood condensation!

Only through three blood clotting processes and the transformation of the major tendons throughout the body can one possess such explosive power and such swift speed.

Swish! Swish!!!
Before everyone's eyes, the figure leaped twice in succession, crossing the military formation's defensive line. He dragged a crimson spear in his hand. When he leaped for the third time, he swung the spear through the air. This spear was like the moon hanging in the sky, cutting through the air with a crimson blood moon light, falling from the sky and striking the head of the three-transformation rock serpent demon!
"hiss."

The Three-Change Rock Serpent Demon let out a hiss, its massive body bursting with strange agility. Its thick, long tail suddenly contracted and lashed out towards the sky, causing the air to vibrate with a buzzing sound.

The spear slashed down, falling through the air and colliding with the rock serpent demon's tail strike, instantly unleashing a deafening explosion, like a heavy drum being smashed apart by immense force. The resulting shockwave even created visible ripples, causing dozens of soldiers nearby to feel their eardrums buzzing as if they were about to burst. Several of the closest soldiers were even knocked unconscious by the shockwave.

Swish.

The figure that thrust the spear through the air eventually traced an arc in the air and landed opposite the rock serpent demon.

The nearby soldiers covered their bleeding ears and retreated in fear, clearing a large area in an instant, leaving only the Three-Change Rock Serpent Demon and the figure with the gun facing each other from a distance.

At that moment, everyone present finally saw the figure holding the gun clearly—

Deputy Patrol Officer of the Night Patrol Division.

Wu Ming!

"Wu Ming?"

"Deputy Inspector Wu?"

"Is it that night patrol officer?!"

Whether it was Zhou Ruoyun, Fu Jingsong, and others from the night patrol team, or the centurions from the city guard team, they all showed astonishment. They were not astonished by Wu Ming's timely arrival, but by the surging blood energy on Wu Ming's body and his terrifying power that allowed him to clash head-on with the Three-Change Rock Serpent Demon.

Three instances of blood clotting!

That's undoubtedly the level of three-stage blood clotting!
"How can this be……"

Zhao Hu was locked in fierce combat with a second-stage wolf demon when he caught a glimpse of it and was utterly astonished. His Dao heart nearly crumbled, and he was even caught off guard when the wolf demon's sharp claws tore a bloody gash in his shoulder, causing excruciating pain. His face turned deathly pale, and he had to force himself to calm his mind and focus on dealing with the wolf demon before him, but his heart was still filled with shock and disbelief.

When Wu Ming was recruited into the Cautious Punishment Division, he broke through to the second stage of blood clotting in a short period of time and became a patrolman alongside him. Although he was slightly surprised at the time, he was not too surprised. Later, Wu Ming mastered the art of unifying skills and surpassed him. Although he was amazed, he was still not shaken. But now, seeing Wu Ming enter the third stage of blood clotting, he finally lost his composure.

Just recently,
He attempted to break the blood clotting barrier three times, but failed each time.

Wu Ming's aptitude was inferior to his, and his cultivation was also inferior to his, but now he has quietly caught up and even surpassed him in martial arts realm. It's one thing for Feng Yong to surpass him, but what did Wu Ming rely on?
"Three blood clotting episodes..."

As Zhou Huai'an looked at the figure holding the gun, a storm of emotions surged within him as well.

How old is Wu Mingcai?
If he remembered correctly, Wu Ming should only be twenty-one years old now?!

At the age of twenty-one, he has achieved the third stage of blood clotting. In the current Cautious Punishment Division, only one person among the entire younger generation has accomplished this, and that person is Ling Zhonghan, the number one among the younger generation of the Cautious Punishment Division!
And upon closer reflection, Wu Ming accomplished more than that. He even comprehended the principles of strength and gentleness during the second blood coagulation, and grasped the techniques of the Unity Realm, something that Ling Zhonghan had never achieved!
"awesome."

Li Minggang took a deep breath, his heart filled with turmoil.

He had heard Zhou Huai'an talk about Wu Ming before and knew that Wu Ming's aptitude was not very good, only below average. In the talent-rich Shenxing Division, he was already considered to be starting from a lower level.

But with such talent, he was able to surpass others and reach the third stage of blood coagulation at this age, overcoming his own lack of talent. Such a person is even rarer than those who are born with superior talent, and is a once-in-a-century talent!
far away.

On the battlefield.

Holding a long spear, Wu Ming faced the three-transformation rock serpent demon directly. He ignored the many gazes, some of which were filled with surprise, some of which were shocked, and some of which were incredulous, and only briefly observed the situation on the battlefield.

He never thought of hiding his martial arts realm, or rather, he couldn't hide it in front of a true master. The change in blood essence brought about by the breakthrough in realm is clearly distinct in the eyes of a master. Unless one cultivates some special methods of concealing qi, one can barely hide it to some extent, but that is only limited to daily activities. Once one really fights, it is still impossible to hide one's blood essence.

"Looks like I arrived just in time..."

Seeing that the situation on the battlefield had stabilized again because of his arrival, and that the city guards had regrouped and continued to fight against the invading demons and beasts, Wu Ming felt a little relieved and turned his gaze to the rock serpent demon.

In fact, it had been less than ten days since he broke through the third blood clotting stage, and his body was still undergoing transformation. He had not yet reached the peak state of the third blood clotting stage, but it was already incomparable to the second blood clotting stage.

Having undergone three blood coagulations, his muscles and bones have been tempered, and his every move exudes power. In addition, he has already mastered the techniques of the Unity Realm, which is like adding wings to a tiger. With the combination of the two, his martial arts strength has risen to the top level among all the masters who have undergone three blood coagulations, and he is not far from being a true disciple of a sect like Shen Lian!
"Hiss."

The rock serpent demon's tail trembled slightly, its demonic eyes fixed on Wu Ming with a ferocious look. It hissed, and suddenly its entire body shuddered, emitting a faint dark brown rock light that covered its entire surface.

Immediately afterwards, its body suddenly moved, bursting with speed and agility completely disproportionate to its size, and charged towards Wu Ming, opening its blood-red maw and tearing down to bite Wu Ming, trying to swallow him whole!
"Humph."

Seeing this, Wu Ming was not afraid at all. He just snorted and swayed his body slightly to the side. At the same time, he raised his spear and thrust it out with a "Falling Leaf Without a Trace" technique, which instantly hit the head of the three-transformation rock snake demon!
Click.

The blow struck as if it had hit an extremely thick rock, producing a loud cracking sound.

Originally, this three-transformation rock serpent demon's scales were incredibly tough, and even dozens of soldiers and centurions with second-stage blood coagulation could not penetrate them with their full strength. Moreover, at this moment, it activated its innate divine power, covering its entire body with demonic power, making its defense even more terrifying. Its entire body was like real refined steel, allowing it to roam freely without fear.

Even with such a tenacious defense, it was still pierced through by Wu Ming's spear!

"hiss……"

The rock serpent demon cried out in pain, and its huge tail lashed out at Wu Ming's body.

Swish.

Wu Ming instantly drew his gun and retreated, nimbly dodging the rock serpent demon's tail whip and landing a zhang away.

His Crimson Serpent Spear didn't penetrate very deeply, only reaching the tip. Compared to the Rock Serpent Demon's enormous size, this amount of penetration, even if it pierced the head, was far from fatal. However, one could see that there were specks of bright red blood on the tip of his spear, indicating that it had indeed pierced through the Rock Serpent Demon's scales!

At this moment, Wu Ming took the initiative to step forward with his spear and engage in combat with the rock serpent demon. In a short while, they exchanged dozens of blows. He was agile and moved around freely, advancing and retreating at will. No matter how much brute force the rock serpent demon unleashed, it could not harm him in the slightest. Meanwhile, his spear left holes in the rock serpent demon's body, from which a little blood seeped and flowed, splattering onto the ground.

"This three-transformation great demon..."

Wu Ming brandished his spear, advancing and retreating with ease. A sense of awe rose in his heart. If it were the old him, he would never have been able to deal with this demon using martial arts methods. But now that he had finally reached the third stage of blood condensation, he was able to fight against a three-transformation demon with his martial arts strength, and even gain the upper hand.
