Swallowing the Stars: Cultivate to Become Stronger.

Chapter 24 Rescue!

The intense daily battles, coupled with the advancement of the Ninefold Chaos Origin Guiding Technique to the third level.

Luo Shen has entered a new period of rapid growth.

Especially after practicing his genetic energy every day, Luo Shen could clearly feel that the power contained in his muscles had increased, and the improvement in his punching power was almost visible to the naked eye.

When I first arrived in City 023, I was barely able to fight against the low-level Beast General-class monster, the Tiger Mastiff.

Then, it was able to fight head-on against the mid-level Beast General-class monster, Iron-Thorned Steel Bull, without being at a disadvantage.

It only took a little over ten days.

If we were to categorize Luo Shen's performance into levels such as 'basic,' 'elite,' and 'strong,' then during the ten-plus days he spent with the Fire Hammer Squad, Luo Shen successfully adapted to combat in the wilderness and completed the 'basic' stage of honing his skills.

And those ten-plus days spent alone in the wilderness.

Luo Shen, on the other hand, skipped the basics and went straight into the 'elite' level.

Especially after his physical abilities steadily improved and he reached the intermediate warrior level, most of the beast general-level monsters in the eastern suburbs of City 023 were no match for Luo Shen.

In terms of proficiency, there has been a significant improvement.

Especially the third level of the Nine-Fold Thunder Blade, which is not far from being perfected.

As for perfect-level movement techniques, Luo Shen has accumulated them very quickly because he always chooses monsters of similar strength or large groups of beasts to fight. He has already accumulated more than one-third of them.

I estimate that in another twenty days, he will be able to step into the 'Intent Level' of the fourth realm of movement techniques!

As his strength increased, he gradually looked down on high-level beast general-level monsters. The pressure they brought began to decrease, and even the growth of his proficiency began to slow down.

Therefore, Luo Shen began to consciously pay attention to some lone lord-level monsters.

However, the lord-level monsters in the suburbs did not meet his needs at all. After all, each lord-level monster had extremely strong dominance and commanded a large number of beast soldiers and beast generals.

In a one-on-one fight, Luo Shen was confident he could escape from a Lord-level monster.

But if he were to be attacked by so many monster minions, Luo Shen felt that unless he was a psychic and could fly, his brazenly seeking out and fighting lord-level monsters was no different from suicide.

Just as Luo Shen was still troubled about where to find a suitable Lord-level monster, a sudden message caught his attention.

Luo Shen, who had just finished cultivating his genetic energy, suddenly noticed his watch vibrating on his right wrist.

Luo Shen looked down.

Suddenly, a satellite map of a 20-kilometer radius appeared on the watch, featuring a bright red dot and a simple message: "SOS! Two low-level lords, over a thousand monsters! Be careful!"

"It's an emergency distress signal!"

In the wilderness, if you encounter danger, you can use your communication watch to send an emergency rescue signal to all the warriors in the vicinity to seek help.

Martial artists from the same martial arts school will have their signals displayed in red.

Different martial arts schools will display a green signal.

"It's still the martial arts team from my Ultimate Martial Arts Academy!" Luo Shen rubbed his nose. "Looks like they still have some strength. They can still hold on even after provoking two low-level lords."

However, they are two lord-level monsters.

Luo Shen picked up his sword, quietly went downstairs, and quickly headed towards the direction of the distress signal.

Of course I'll go.

However, whether or not to save them, and how to save them, will depend on the situation.

The location where the distress signal was sent was not far from Luo Shen, only five kilometers away. Even a quasi-martial artist can run 100 meters in 4 seconds, so it goes without saying that Luo Shen, who is at least a mid-level warrior, could do it even faster.

Luo Shen had been in the surrounding area for more than ten days and was already very familiar with it.

Taking a shortcut, he arrived near the signal location in just two or three minutes.

"Wow, that's quite a scene!"

Instead of foolishly charging into the beast horde, Luo Shen found an office building with a wide view, went upstairs, randomly picked an office, and looked down through the window.

Not far away, outside a commercial plaza, several nearby streets were already filled with a large number of pig-like monsters.

With just a glance, Luo Shen spotted at least twenty or thirty beast general-level monsters.

"This is a bit tricky."

Luo Shen frowned and said, "The surrounding monsters have all been attracted here, and their numbers are constantly increasing. In a little while, they will probably number two or three thousand."

Even a war god would have to think twice before attacking such a large number of monsters.

"Bang!"

A bloodthirsty tank, as large as a light truck, suddenly leaped up, jumping over the height of a five-story building, smashing through the wall of the fifth floor, and attempting to crash directly into the apartment above.

Unfortunately, the building's ceiling height was insufficient to accommodate its massive size, and with nowhere to gain leverage, it eventually fell back to the ground.

This is a novice lord.

On the other side, a colossal beast that seemed to burn with flames was awe-inspiring. Its entire body was covered with fiery red scales without a single blemish, and three tall, curved horns on its head pointed proudly upwards!

The number one pig-type monster is the Fire-Scaled Trident Boar!

"This is getting a bit tricky."

As a low-level lord, the Firescale Trident Boar is much stronger than other monsters of the same level, and is estimated to be able to contend with a mid-level lord.

of course.

The price of a low-level lord-class Firescale Trident Boar is equivalent to that of several monsters of the same level.

"Beep! An unknown number has requested access."

Luo Shen clicked to access.

As soon as the call connected, a steady middle-aged male voice rang out.

"Dude, this is Chen Qinglong, the captain of the Qinglong Squad. I've contacted the members of the Yanshan Squad inside, and we're preparing to launch a joint attack. How many men do you have?"

The other person's tone was somewhat hurried.

The situation was clearly quite critical, and they could no longer afford to take their time to analyze it thoroughly.

"How strong are you?" Luo Shen asked.

The person on the other end was taken aback, clearly not expecting Luo Shen to ask that question.

But the other party quickly reacted, saying in a very fast tone, "The Yanshan Squad has three high-level warriors. Their captain is quite strong and should be able to hold off that Bloodthirsty Tank. I am a low-level War God. Leave the Firescale Trident Boar to me. As long as we can open a passage and regroup, we can definitely help them escape!"

"Leave the Firescale Trident Boar to me."

Before the other party could ask any more questions, Luo Shen hung up the call.

Looking down at the monster that was constantly crashing into the staircase support column, the building's staircase was on the verge of collapse, while Luo Shen's eyes were fixed on that dazzling red—the Fire Scale Trident Boar!

If he were alone, he would naturally not do anything futile.

After all, with such a massive herd of beasts, even if he worked himself to death, he couldn't kill them all, let alone carve out a path to rescue people.

But now that there's help available, we might as well give it a try.

"This gives me a chance to challenge a low-level lord." Luo Shen smashed through the office building's glass and jumped down. During his fall, he slammed his feet against the wall and shot out like an arrow.

At this time.

On the other side of the commercial plaza, the Azure Dragon Squad was hiding.

"Captain, the stairs are shaking badly; they probably won't last more than five minutes," a member of the Azure Dragon Squad who was observing said urgently. "What did they say over there? Should we make a move?"

Chen Qinglong smiled helplessly: "He only said that he would hand over the Firescale Trident Pig."

"Captain, a madman has charged through all by himself!" The Azure Dragon Squad member suddenly exclaimed anxiously, his tone filled with disbelief. That was over a thousand monsters!

Upon hearing this, Chen Qinglong rushed to the window to look.

All that could be seen was the street in the distance.

A figure, like a sharp arrow, charged straight into the boiling horde of beasts, plunging deep into their midst.

"Holy crap! This is for real!"

Chen Qinglong immediately shouted, "Brothers, grab your weapons! Target: the residential building in the Dada Commercial Plaza. Fight your way through! Don't let that guy underestimate us!"

Everyone responded in unison, "Yes!"
