All Heavens: Starting as a Sacrifice

Li Yi mentally assessed their speed and distance, as well as the speed and effect of the poison's evaporation.

After a breath, he pressed the button in his hand.

The protective shell of the poison opened, and it quickly evaporated into the air.

Silently, poisonous gas filled the air.

It is highly toxic and fast-acting, making it unavoidable for anyone.

Even with ample protection, Li Yi was still affected by some of the toxicity at such a distance.

Those paroled who had close contact with the poison are now falling one after another.

"Don't come any closer!" a soldier cried out with all his might before he died.

Chapter Twenty-Eight: Trading Injuries for Injuries

Li Yi's breathing was steady as he lay prone on the ground. He had already killed more than fifty of the hundred armored soldiers.

As of now, they haven't even seen their own faces.

The effects of the poison were stronger than they had imagined; many of the armored soldiers collapsed to the ground, lifeless.

Some people, though farther away, had inhaled a lot of the toxic gas and were now lying on the ground; they would soon meet their end.

If it weren't for the traces they left behind still visible on the thermal imager, Li Yi would probably have assumed they were dead as well.

Even so, more than a dozen armored soldiers stayed far away from the poisoned area and were almost unaffected.

They have gone deep into the dense forest, and now it is their turn to make their move.

Li Yi, with a cold expression, took out many parts of a sniper rifle and began to slowly assemble these weapon components.

The armored soldiers continued to venture deeper into the dense forest, unaware of the other situation.

Those who knew they had been poisoned were mostly dead, and those who weren't dead lay on the ground waiting to die.

Those who survived had no idea what had happened.

"Bang!" Even with a silencer, the sound of the sniper rifle was still quite loud, clearly audible in the silent forest.

Li Yi shot him in the head, and he wasn't surprised by the result.

The sniper rifle in his possession was extremely expensive and featured intelligent wind direction detection and aiming assistance systems.

Aiming at enemies with this sniper rifle isn't much harder than playing a video game on a computer.

This type of firearm is effective against martial artists, but not against wild monsters.

Because of their enormous size and tenacious vitality, even if a vital spot is hit, they can remain lively for a period of time.

Martial artists are different; a single shot, whether to the head or the heart, can basically kill them on the spot.

As a martial artist, one's strength is sufficient, and one's control over the body is precise enough that a headshot is perfectly normal.

Unfortunately, the sniper rifle can't be used many times, not because it lacks power, but because it simply can't hit the target.

If it weren't for these armored soldiers, they would have no idea of ​​the power of firearms. Their own bombs and modern sniper rifles would have been utterly useless.

Li Yi fired six shots, all of which hit their mark, and the enemy had already reached him.

He pulled the trigger again, but this time the opponent was alert and dodged quickly, so he missed.

Without much hesitation, he put away his sniper rifle and turned to leave.

In the dense forest, there were countless bushes and shrubs. He found a shrub and hunched over, looking into the distance.

Li Yi understood that he had almost exhausted all his tricks, and there was no more chance for trickery. He could only fight a real, hard battle.

The nine armored soldiers dispersed, forming three small teams, and slowly surrounded the area where he was located.

They moved very cautiously, hiding behind trees or rocks almost every time they took a step.

Li Yi activated his guiding technique, absorbing the power of heaven and earth to restore his own condition.

For some reason, the effects of practicing guiding techniques here far exceeded his expectations.

Soon his body was filled with the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, and his body was frantically absorbing this spiritual energy to recover itself.

Under the cover of darkness and shadow, he slowly stood up and stepped to his left.

My footsteps were very light and slow, trying my best to make no sound.

I have a great advantage when fighting these people because of the thermal imaging camera. I can see them, but they may not be able to see me.

Li Yi activated his guiding technique, silently accumulating his own power.

He has basically mastered the second level of the World-Destroying Spear Technique, but it requires a long time to accumulate power, and there will be a long gap after the attack.

But he was indeed able to unleash four times his own power, and with the superposition of these four times his own power, he even barely touched the threshold of the God of War realm.

The tree in front wasn't wide, maybe fifty centimeters at most.

Li Yi, holding his spear, took a slight half-step back, but his foot did not land.

The next moment, his power reached its peak, and he thrust forward with all his might.

The three moves of pointing, stabbing, and thrusting seem the same, but they are simply the same thing: thrusting the spear forward.

In reality, there is a significant difference between light and heavy touches; the point should be touched and the grip separated immediately, and the strike should be quickly reversed.

To stab means to attack with all one's might, leaving no room for retreat.

"Thump!" Wood chips flew everywhere, and he pierced a hole the size of a human head in the magnificent ancient tree.

The spear pierced through two armored soldiers like a string of candied hawthorns, and the remaining soldier also noticed Li Yi shouting desperately.

"Enemy attack! Enemy attack!"

As he spoke, he drew the sword from his waist and slashed at Li Yi's arm with a sidestep.

He attacked with all his might, leaving him no room to maneuver.

"Squeak..." A very piercing sound came from his arm.

Li Yi's combat uniform was of excellent quality, and the knife did not sever his arm.

But the bones in his arm were already cracked, and it seemed like they were about to shatter at any moment.

The soldiers were shocked, never expecting such a situation.

Li Yi swept his spear horizontally, taking advantage of the opponent's momentary lapse in concentration, and the spear tip sliced ​​across the opponent's chest.

The armor worn by those people offered very little protection, making it as fragile as paper against the spears in his hands.

Blood splattered everywhere, reaching a height of nearly ten feet.

"Six left," Li Yi thought to himself, knowing he had no advantage whatsoever.

After this close encounter, he could roughly assess the strength of these ordinary armored soldiers.

The strength of a junior to intermediate warrior is slightly weaker than one's own.

But he knew that there might be a leader of armored soldiers among these people, whom he had not yet dealt with.

In addition, there is another teenager who has barely shown his face or made a move so far.

Six armored soldiers quickly surrounded them. Although there were only six people left, their steps remained orderly.

Each person can support the two people beside them, and each time they make a move, they will be blocked by the three of them.

The others will take this opportunity to attack you.

The armored soldiers did not rush to attack, but instead silently tightened their encirclement with their swords.

Li Yi knew he couldn't give them a chance. The dense forest was already unfavorable for marksmanship, and if the encirclement tightened further, he would only have one way out: death.

With a gentle turn of his spear and a light tap forward, three armored soldiers raised their swords to block.

In mid-air, the spear suddenly spun around, launching a surprise attack.

Another shot pierced a man's throat, blood spurting out like a fountain, filling the air with the sweet, metallic smell of blood.

However, the other two turned around and slashed his right arm with one knife and struck his back with the other.

His left arm was probably broken; he could clearly feel that he couldn't exert much strength. His back was at most cracked, which was much better than he had expected.

He swung his spear forward again, a tactic of trading injury for injury.

If it weren't for the high level of his protective suit, which prevented the armored soldiers' weapons from penetrating his defenses, he would have died countless times by now.

With another shot, Li Yi ended the life of another armored soldier, and his own condition was already at its worst.

His right arm was completely unable to exert any force and could only hang limply at his side like a broken wooden stick.

Chapter Twenty-Nine: Fighting for Life

Looking at the four people who remained before him, Li Yi realized that his own condition was extremely poor.

One arm was rendered useless, and several ribs were broken from the body.

These armored soldiers no longer tried to tear his combat uniform with their swords, but instead used the back of their swords as hammers.

The primary targets of the attack were his remaining arm and two legs.

If you can't break through the combat suit, then break its limbs to render it harmless.

Li Yi was well aware of his critical situation, but he gritted his teeth and swung his spear to pierce another armored soldier.

At this moment, his arms were almost completely useless, with only his left hand retaining some strength, while his right hand was almost completely immobile.

His legs were slightly better, but one leg was broken and could no longer support him to stand.

A sinister smile flashed across Li Yi's lips. The situation was better than he had expected; one of his legs was still intact.

"Gentlemen, why don't you let me go and we go our separate ways?" he said in a low voice, which seemed very cold.

"Don't you think it's too late for you to say all this now?" the armored warrior leader said, his movements not stopping as he prepared to break the other man's other leg.

Li Yi didn't say anything more, and shakily stretched out his hands.
