The Unique Feng Shui Master
“Bang!”
The Sniper Rifle fired a explosive round, attempting to shoot down the incoming arrow mid-air. However, the bullet was deflected and fell to the ground, marking the end of this confrontation. Yet, this collision bought time for the Wild Grass Team, allowing their helicopter to descend rapidly. The arrows aimed at the helicopter narrowly missed the spinning rotor blades. However, the sudden drop caused issues with the helicopter's rotor, and with a series of cracking sounds, it tilted and crashed into the jungle.
“Boom!”
The helicopter hit the ground with a blast of air, followed by an explosion. At that moment, Xian, who had just released an arrow, remained calm and collected, as if shooting down a helicopter was merely an everyday occurrence.
With a swift motion of drawing his bow and nocking another arrow, he aimed again at the giant tree where Consort Mi was hiding. At this moment, escape was impossible. After confirming the safety of her unborn child, Consort Mi prepared herself. She was unaware of Wild Grass Team's true objective; however, their appearance was a blessing in disguise. As she suppressed her presence, she transformed into a leopard and slowly climbed up to the treetops.
Xian understood that he held an advantage in weaponry and physical prowess. Yet he had to admit that if Consort Mi got too close—especially with her Gene Warrior's Beast Transformation Form—his chances of winning would diminish significantly.
Thus, from the very beginning, Xian had no intention of capturing Consort Mi alive. Using his Elementalist abilities, he sensed that she was ascending slowly, clearly planning to launch a surprise attack on him. He was ready; there was only one optimal route for her to approach him in mid-air, and that path was under his control. The moment Consort Mi revealed herself, an arrow would pierce through her skull.
Rustling leaves echoed around him as someone approached. Xian realized that if he didn’t act soon, he would be in trouble; it was evident that people from the helicopter were closing in on him!
“Bang!”
“Whoosh!”
Gunfire and the sound of arrows slicing through the air erupted simultaneously. However, it seemed that advanced technology still could not compete with cultivators at this stage. The gunfire shattered the silence; yet arrows flew faster. Dandelion, holding the Sniper Rifle, was struck in the chest by an arrow. Fortunately, the thick stock of her rifle deflected it slightly; while it pierced her chest, it missed her heart. Despite this fortunate turn of events, Dandelion collapsed to the ground, unconscious and unaware of her fate.
However, before she was hit, she had pulled the trigger on her weapon. The bullet was deflected by Xian’s short dagger at his waist. In an instant confrontation with Wild Grass Team’s members, one had already been severely injured. Dandelion’s injury wasn’t without consequence; at that moment when both bullet and arrow flew through the air simultaneously, lurking Consort Mi recognized her opportunity. This was a weakness of cold weapons like bows and arrows—after firing once, they required reloading—making archers vulnerable after each shot!
Just as Xian deflected the bullet with his dagger, Consort Mi leaped onto the branch where he stood. Her sharp claws glimmered with Azure Light as Xian held his bow in one hand and his dagger in the other. The dagger could only defend against her attack horizontally as he attempted to fend off her claw aimed at his throat!
“Slash!” Her sharp claws tore into the trunk behind Xian while his dagger was firmly grasped by Consort Mi’s other hand. If it weren't for a golden elemental shield appearing just in time to protect Xian's throat, it wouldn’t have been just bark that got torn apart!
At that moment, Consort Mi stood where Xian had just been, gazing down below. Xian had just used an elemental shield to block a fatal blow, but under Consort Mi's formidable power, he was knocked down to the ground beneath a tree. At this moment, he was surrounded by the five members of the Wild Grass Team. With five machine guns aimed at him, Xian, facing a deadly threat, chose to give up, releasing his bone bow and short dagger.
Consort Mi stood atop the treetops, staring down. Just when she should have felt secure, she suddenly shouted, "Get down!"
With that, Consort Mi leaped in another direction using the branches as support. The five members of the Wild Grass Team quickly reacted; two of them dragged the unconscious Dandelion away at high speed while Xian saw a shell hurtling toward him from afar. He realized there was no time to escape to safety. Kicking off the ground, he sent his short dagger flying toward the incoming shell while raising his golden elemental shield. Just as he picked up his bone bow, he was thrown into the air by the shockwave from the missile explosion.
The blast hurled him four or five meters away, shattering his elemental shield instantly. The aftershock of the explosion caused Xian to spit blood as he was sent flying backward until he crashed into a large tree, finally coming to a stop. However, at that moment, he lost consciousness and fainted.
The sudden missile strike left everyone injured. Thanks to Consort Mi's warning, the Wild Grass Team fared relatively well; aside from some scrapes and bruises, the worst injury was Big Beard twisting his ankle and needing help from his teammates. Meanwhile, Consort Mi remained unharmed due to her powerful Beastification skin, completely ignoring the shrapnel flying around.
Just as Consort Mi helped one of her teammates from the Wild Grass Team, three men dressed in casual clothes but wielding advanced weapons and carrying long swords descended from above. The Wild Grass Team did not recognize these three men, but Consort Mi did!
"Destruction! The ones chasing me this time are truly impressive! One of the Four Young Masters!" Consort Mi did not revert from her Beastification form. If one looked closely, they would see that her green-scaled armor now had a faint golden-blue aura.
"Consort Mi! Surrender and come back with me! I can let these people go!" The leading man was none other than Bald Giant, one of the Four Young Masters known as Destruction.
"Protect the target and retreat! Our benefactor is on their way; we must hold out until they arrive!" The captain of the Wild Grass Team immediately ordered.
Following that command, bullets from the Wild Grass Team were fired at Destruction and his companions. However, having already distanced themselves from this circle, the Wild Grass Team stood no chance against those from Perfect World. Three electromagnetic shields appeared to block all incoming bullets. Subsequently, under a barrage of laser fire, Big Beard and others from the Wild Grass Team were hit and fell to the ground, their fates unknown!
However, Big Beard and his companions bought enough time for Consort Mi and the other two to escape into the jungle. Destruction shook his head and stepped forward with two of his subordinates in pursuit of them. Coincidentally, at that moment, Consort Mi and her companions took several twists and turns before entering a miasma swamp—a common environment in the rainforest—but not an ideal escape route at this time.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
Laser fire rained down like a storm; however, thanks to their cover under the trees, they managed to evade most of it. The remaining shots were merely stray bullets that couldn't be focused on due to the miasma swamp's effects. Destruction had already caught up with them; drawing his long sword from behind him, he made his move. With a single step forward, the ground shattered like powder beneath him as he propelled himself toward Consort Mi like a rocket with his sword gleaming coldly.
Sensing Destruction's attacking force, Consort Mi swiftly pulled aside two members of the Wild Grass Team who were trying to draw their swords for defense. Her right arm transformed entirely into her Beastification form as she drew a laser blade from her waist. A blue laser blade emerged with a sharp sound as it clashed against Destruction's incoming sword.
In fact, this was not much of a problem. The Laser Blade required a carrier. What appeared to be a transparent Laser Blade actually had a back edge that served as its carrier. When they collided, Consort Mi was forced back three or four steps by a single strike!
At that moment, Mie understood the significance of Consort Mi to the Master. He showed no mercy, his eyes wide open. Despite being bald, the skin on his body turned a shade of crimson, and his limbs exhibited unusual muscle definition. Mie activated his Beast Transformation Form. No one knew that Mie's Gene Fusion included the genes of an ancient beast, just like Xiao Yefeng and Consort Mi; he too was a Gene Fusion user of an ancient beast.
As the Blade descended, Consort Mi summoned all her strength to block it. Who would have thought that what had seemed like an evenly matched contest would suddenly turn one-sided? The Laser Blade was severed, and the laser handle in Consort Mi's hand emitted black smoke before losing its functionality.
"Roar!"
A beastly roar erupted from Mie's mouth as he reached out to grab Consort Mi. Knowing she could not win, Consort Mi still prepared to fight back. However, at that moment, the last two members of the Wild Grass Team, who had been protecting her until now, gritted their teeth and drew their short blades to charge at Mie. At this point, Mie had already entered his gene state; their attack was akin to mayflies trying to shake a tree. Mie ignored them entirely. With his mouth wide open, a thunderous roar erupted from him, causing both men to bleed from their ears and noses as they collapsed to either side.
Thus, the Wild Grass Team, which had gathered once more out of gratitude, fell collectively in this rainforest. Though they still breathed, they had been utterly defeated! At this moment, Mie opened his mouth and said in a hearty voice, "Come back with me, or I'll crush you and take your corpse along with your unborn child!"
Mentioning the child made Consort Mi's eyes turn red. She knew what would happen if her child fell into the Master's hands. Clenching her fists tightly due to the infusion of Chaos Energy, she realized she could assimilate her genes up to seventy percent. In this state, she had nearly regained the power of the Octagonal Dragon Fish from years ago. However, doing so meant she would lose consciousness; even if she defeated Mie, what would become of her?
Yet without pushing her genes to their limit, it was impossible to defeat Mie, who had already achieved sixty percent Beastification and Gene Fusion! After fleeing alone for so long, Consort Mi finally recalled Xiao Yefeng. What if he were here right now? With his current strength, he might easily defeat Mie!
There was no time for further thought as Consort Mi began struggling to escape Mie's grasp. However, at fifty percent fusion with Beastification, she was no match for Mie’s ancient Beast Gene at this level. Moreover, Mie had activated sixty percent fusion and retained his intellect under the God of Sorcery's secret arts!
In truth, Consort Mi did not know what animal Mie's ancient Beast Gene came from; all she knew was that it must be some kind of giant beast known for its strength—not one based on balance like the Octagonal Dragon Fish. Although the Octagonal Dragon Fish was classified as a top-tier beast in Perfect World data, Mie's genes had already surpassed those of Consort Mi!
