World-saving Plan: The Only Savior

Chapter 1768 - 50: Plague Relics (6)_2

Zhang Xiaoman secretly let out a breath of relief when he saw this, thinking to himself that his method really worked.

Using the Lord of Light’s passive skills that guaranteed success in Tracking, he created an opportunity for a Dark Spiritual Power Storm to appear, which in turn blew away the poison fog here so he could clearly see the monsters besieging him.

He had already tested this many times back on Guleng Star. Back then, when he was Tracking the Blood Butterfly, because those Blood Butterflies were good at hiding, every time his Tracking ability activated, all kinds of accidents and coincidences would always occur that forced those Blood Butterflies to reveal themselves. And this kind of Spiritual Power Tide coming from Cosmic Energy was the most common method. Out of ten coincidences, seven or eight were because a Spiritual Power Tide suddenly appeared, exposing the hiding spots of the monsters and forcing them into the open.

Right now, Zhang Xiaoman was using this kind of coincidence method to create a powerful Dark Spiritual Power Storm that completely exposed those guys in front of his eyes.

He just hadn’t expected that this Dark Spiritual Power Storm would be so overpowered, actually clearing away all the fog in the surroundings. It not only exposed the twelve Black-armored Monsters besieging him, but even the gigantic palace in the distance was revealed.

"These guys, could it be they’re guarding that palace...?"

Seeing the Black-armored Monsters all stop their actions, Zhang Xiaoman didn’t attack immediately. Instead, he began to analyze the situation in front of him.

From the appearance of those twelve Black-armored Monsters, they really did look like twelve guards stationed at the palace. The reason he was being besieged by them was probably because he had unintentionally approached that palace.

"Shua shua shua!"

Just as Zhang Xiaoman was pondering, those twelve Black-armored Monsters suddenly moved again. The Long Spears in their hands were raised horizontally, spear tips aimed at Zhang Xiaoman from afar, as if they would launch an attack at any moment.

"Twelve monsters. I’ve already crippled one, so there are eleven left in pretty good Status. Judging from the Energy fluctuations they give off, they should all be Upper Control Level existences, though they should be only just entering that Level. But with so many Upper Control Levels, with my current strength, it’ll probably still take some effort to deal with them..."

Zhang Xiaoman observed the opponent’s strength while also taking up a combat stance.

At the same time, a white light suddenly flashed through his eyes. In the hand of one of the Black-armored Monsters, that fifteen-meter Long Spear suddenly extended to forty meters, as if it could freely stretch and contract. The spear tip directly struck Zhang Xiaoman’s left arm.

"Clang!"

Just like before, the monster’s attack was once again blocked by the Star Shining Armor. At the same time, the light it emitted dimmed another degree. It looked like it wouldn’t be able to hold out much longer.

Zhang Xiaoman quickly flew away from his original spot, thinking inwardly that this monster’s attack pattern was really hard to guard against. He hadn’t expected that even without the poison fog’s blessing, they would still have such strength.

The key point was that Long Spear was simply too fast. Even with Dark Speed activated, he had a hard time reacting. It was almost impossible to dodge, and he could only evade by predicting in advance.

"Twelve Upper Control Levels is a bit troublesome, but at most it’s just a bit troublesome. If they want to take me down, they’re still far from enough!"

Chased by a barrage of Long Spears jabbing at his rear, Zhang Xiaoman was also getting fired up. He decided to unleash his true strength and let the other side have a real taste.

Although they were twelve Upper Control Level Demon Clan, extremely powerful—in the eyes of Lan Gu and the others, they might barely be able to stall them, but if they wanted to win, it would be adding frost on top of snow.

Yet Zhang Xiaoman was gradually relaxing his brows. Twelve Upper Control Levels were formidable, but he himself was no weakling either. He had already reached Pseudo Extraordinary Level; if he went all out, these Control Levels could never be his match.

While he was still thinking of a countermeasure, Zhang Xiaoman was struck in the chest once again by the white Long Spear in that fast monster’s hand.

Even with the Purple Cloud Divine Sword blessing his Constitution, doubling it, he still couldn’t dodge those Long Spear attacks. From this, one could imagine just how terrifying the attack speed of those monsters was.

"Hmph, you don’t think this is all I’ve got, do you!"

The Spiritual Power inside Zhang Xiaoman’s body surged wildly. A strong light lit up on his right arm, and the pattern of a Seven-pointed Star appeared right after—that was his dark Star Pattern.

Star Pattern, activate!

A powerful force erupted from within Zhang Xiaoman’s body. With four Star Patterns activated, his eyes had completely turned purple, which was the color represented by the fourth Star Pattern.

Feeling the endless Spiritual Power surging within him, his perception of the world—both in speed and clarity—became stronger at this moment. He could already vaguely make out the trajectory of the Long Spear’s movements, allowing him to smoothly twist his body and dodge one monster’s sneak attack.

"No, still not enough!"

The next second, Zhang Xiaoman’s body was pierced again by another Long Spear. The Star Shining Armor let out an unbearable creaking sound, making him realize he didn’t have much time left to waste.

"In that case..."

The Dark Spiritual Power in Zhang Xiaoman’s body surged madly, and the light on the Star Pattern became incomparably dazzling. His aura was constantly climbing.

Bestow: Super Speed!

Bestow: Super Strength!

Bestow: Rapid Response!

He unleashed three consecutive Energy Bestows, all targeting himself. Zhang Xiaoman instantly boosted his own attributes straight up to a terrifying value.

This was his Star Pattern Talent. After activating the fourth Star Pattern, using it became much easier, and the effect was even stronger.

Now, with Rapid Response blessed, those monsters’ Long Spear ambushes could no longer hit Zhang Xiaoman at all. He could react in the instant the Long Spears were thrust out, then use his speed to quickly evade. This kind of short-distance Extreme Speed Evasion was incredibly Swift; he didn’t even need to activate Dark Speed mode and could directly dodge the attacks.

"Boom!"

With one punch, Zhang Xiaoman, boosted by Super Strength, instantly killed the Black-armored Monster he had heavily injured earlier. The monster’s corpse was blown apart with a single punch, losing its "form" and thus meeting complete Death.

"So this is all the Demon Clan amounts to!"

Zhang Xiaoman’s figure kept Flashing, his speed so fast that those Black-armored Monsters couldn’t react at all. In just a few breaths, they were struck by him one after another, and another three followed in their companion’s footsteps.

"So strong!"

This was the first time Zhang Xiaoman had used his Star Pattern Talent so freely and wildly in actual combat, and his opponents weren’t weak either—they were all Upper Control Level Demon Clan. He couldn’t help feeling somewhat excited.

"Ziwei was indeed right. After activating the fourth Star Pattern, the Talent’s abilities have really become stronger, and it’s much more effortless to use! Judging from the attributes I just blessed myself with, in some aspects my physical strength has probably already reached true Extraordinary Level. I didn’t expect the enhancement effect of this Talent to be this significant!"

With the simplest and most brutal method, Zhang Xiaoman killed those four Black-armored Monsters. The activation of the fourth Star Pattern allowed him to instantly complete a reversal.

But before he could be happy for long, a series of rumbling sounds suddenly came from within the gigantic palace before his eyes. Following that, under Zhang Xiaoman’s shocked gaze, the long-sealed main gate slowly opened, and squads of ten-meter-tall Black-armored Monsters walked out. At a rough glance, there were actually over a hundred of them.

Over a hundred Black-armored Monsters!?

Zhang Xiaoman was stunned. Just what was this palace, and why were there so many Demon Clan of such powerful strength inside?

He released his divine sense and carefully sensed them. The strength of those monsters was slightly weaker than that of the previous twelve; most were at Middle Control Level, but there were also many Upper Control Level existences.

Strength like this could probably sweep across an entire Super Star System in the outside world, and yet they were all sealed inside this Relics space. It seemed the identity of that Plague God was even more mysterious than he had originally imagined.
