Chapter 912: Chapter 480: Mutual Slaughter Gu Sheng’s figure flickered, deftly avoiding the deadly blow. "I must finish this quickly!" Gu Sheng said to himself. Then, he swung his arm, and Divine Power gathered in his palm to form a ball of light. "Swoosh!" Gu Sheng forcefully pushed it towards the lizardman. "Bang!" The ball of light hit the lizardman’s chest, erupting in bright light, pushing it back several steps. "Awooo!!!" The lizardman let out a painful howl. It opened its large mouth, a foul stench spewing forth, rushing straight at Gu Sheng. "Damn! That smell..." Gu Sheng quickly dodged, while condensing another strand of Spiritual Power in his hand, countering the lizardman’s attack. "Bang!" A loud crash. The Spiritual Power and the breath collided, causing a violent explosion. The rocks inside the cave were blasted in all directions, and both Gu Sheng and the lizardman were shaken back several steps. Gu Sheng steadied himself, looking at the lizardman, secretly amazed at encountering such a creature! The lizardman also collected itself, its body flickering as it attacked Gu Sheng once more. This time, it was not merely breathing, but using its claws and tail to attack. "Swish swish swish!" A few strikes like these, and if Gu Sheng had not been agile, he would have been crushed to death in the cave! Immediately, Gu Sheng summoned the Fire Spirit Dagger, directly stabbing towards the lizardman. "Ting!" With a burst of sparks, the Fire Spirit Dagger couldn’t pierce the lizardman’s body! Gu Sheng was momentarily stunned, not expecting the lizardman’s skin to be so tough that even the Fire Spirit Dagger couldn’t penetrate. "Swish!" In Gu Sheng’s surprise, the lizardman clawed at Gu Sheng’s shoulder. "Tear!" Gu Sheng’s clothes were ripped, and blood instantly flowed out. "Hiss hiss hiss..." The lizardman, smelling the blood, became even more exhilarated. Its appearance was rather frightening. At this moment, Gu Sheng was secretly thankful for those Qingyun Sect cultivators. If they had come in, they would probably have been killed by the lizardman by now. Gu Sheng furrowed his brow, maintaining a combat stance, ready to fight at any moment. Meanwhile, the lizardman seemed to realize that Gu Sheng was not that easy to deal with, so it too prepared to attack at any moment, just like Gu Sheng. At this moment, Gu Sheng’s gaze quickly scanned across the lizardman’s body. He noticed that the lizardman’s neck was relatively thin and not covered with scales, only a thin layer of skin. Gu Sheng’s heart stirred, suddenly recalling some cultivation manuals that mentioned many beasts that had transformed into humanoid monsters, although they appeared close to human, retained some animal traits, such as their fatal weaknesses. "Weakness..." Gu Sheng decided to take a gamble. Then, Gu Sheng relaxed his stance, pretending to show a flaw. The lizardman saw this and suddenly launched into an attack. "Yahoo!" The lizardman roared, lunging fiercely at Gu Sheng, its claws pointed straight at Gu Sheng’s chest. Gu Sheng’s figure flickered, narrowly avoiding the lizardman’s attack. At the same time, the Fire Spirit Dagger in his hand drew an arc, stabbing directly at the lizardman’s neck. The lizardman’s reaction speed was extremely fast; sensing the danger, it immediately wanted to retreat. However, Gu Sheng’s Fire Spirit Dagger, with a red glow, had already accurately pierced into the lizardman’s neck. With a "pfft" sound, the lizardman’s neck was punctured, and green blood sprayed out. "Yahoo..." The lizardman let out a shrill scream. Then its body heavily fell to the ground, convulsed a few more times, and then showed no further response. Seeing the lizardman dead, Gu Sheng finally let out a sigh of relief. Then he looked at the wound on his left shoulder. The blood from the wound was still seeping out, his clothes stained red with blood. 𝕗𝚛𝚎𝚎𝐰𝗲𝗯𝗻𝚘𝚟𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝕞 "That creature’s claws are really sharp! Luckily I dodged quickly, otherwise, this arm would be useless!" While quietly feeling relieved, Gu Sheng prepared to heal. He adjusted his breathing, and upon closing his eyes, immersed his mind within. Soon, Gu Sheng sensed a small tripod suspended at his Dantian, which was the Magic Artifact he had cultivated for years, containing the "Source" power he had painstakingly accumulated. With a gentle thought, the small tripod gently rotated, emitting a wisp of soft white light. This white light was "Source" power that could repair wounds, flowing gently towards Gu Sheng’s wound like living water. This force was naturally warm, relieving the pain where it passed. Soon, the blood stopped seeping, and the wound began to heal visibly. "Whew..." Gu Sheng let out a long breath, feeling the flow of "Source" power within his body. Soon, Gu Sheng’s stamina and Divine Power were somewhat restored. A few minutes later, Gu Sheng opened his eyes. The wound on his shoulder had healed, leaving only a faint scar. He moved his shoulder a bit, confirmed that the wound was fine, and then refocused his attention on the depths of the cave. "Scratch scratch scratch..." Suddenly, a rustling sound came from deeper in the cave. "What’s going on?" Gu Sheng looked puzzled in the direction the sound was coming from. Suddenly, countless eyes glowing with emerald green appeared within Gu Sheng’s line of sight. "Oh crap! So many of them!" Gu Sheng was instantly shocked. He didn’t expect there to be dozens, even hundreds of lizardmen! Having just dealt with one was difficult enough, and now with so many, wouldn’t he be torn to pieces! "Yahoo! Yahoo! Yahoo!" These lizardmen made strange sounds, charging straight at Gu Sheng. Run? Could he outrun these monsters? Fight? Could he fight them all off? Besides, it’s still uncertain how many more there are deeper in the cave, and if they keep coming, won’t he be exhausted to death?
