"Thanks for telling me that! I know what to do now." Mike replied as he took a few steps forward. He had already had the plan in his head. He knew he had nothing to fear when it comes to dual cultivation. That's why he didn't worry instead walked towards the danger to face it.
"Wait! Where are you going?" Bing Lan suddenly asked as he moved further.
"Of course, we can't simply wait here and do nothing, right? We need to move straight and get the job done. I need to escape this world soon." Mike spoke without looking back. At the same time, the golden slime moved from his wrist and transformed into a dagger.
Crackle! Crackle! Crackle!
Suddenly, the ground beneath them started trembling. Mike narrowed his eyes and released his spiritual sense.
"Our opponents will be Metal-Worm. They have the body stronger and durable like a metal. They can move and easily penetrate through the ground." Bing Lan screamed as she took a sword in her hand and released her blue spiritual qi.
It wrapped around the sword. Her eyes moved in different directions while her spiritual sense was already searching for the Metal-World.
"Damn! The ground of this tower disrupts our spiritual sense. We can't find them this way. They can come out from anywhere at any time." Bing Lan shouted as she retreated a few steps. She had already the cultivation lower than her opponents.
She didn't want to risk her life this easily.
"Is that so? Do you know what can make these worms tremble in fear or excited?" Mike also checked with his spiritual sense and found nothing. He couldn't help but ask Bing Lan after a series of failures.
Bing Lan thought for a moment and shouted "It's exciting for the blood. In fact, Metal-Worm normally eats metal and rarely comes out. Our blood is the major reason why they attack us."
"Oh! That makes it easy." Mike chuckled as he released the blood spirit in his hand and the blood domain around him. Seeing the blood domain and blood spirit, Bing Lan trembled and bites her teeth.
But, Mike had no time to look at her expression. He simply condensed a huge orb of blood at the sky and intensely release the blood aura.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
As soon as the blood aura penetrates the ground, the metal worms broke out of it. They shot right towards the sky. There were nearly seven of them and each one was nearly twenty meters long and five-meter wide.
"Vanishing Aura!"
Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding!
Mike activates the vanishing aura and moved towards one of them. He didn't target all and the dagger in his hand transformed into a sword. The black dragon saber appeared in his hand. He reached below them and slashed his sword and saber.
But, each strike was like the collision between metals without creating any damage on the worm. The hard shell of the worm was made out of metal just as its name. Mike had no choice but to release the lightning law in his sword and fire law in his sword.
Whoosh! Bang! Thud!
Suddenly, Mike's spiritual sense tingled alongside his space sense. He tried to dodge the tail of the worm but it was too big and fast. He took back his saber and suddenly the golden slime transformed into a golden shield.
The impact smashed him to the ground even though it didn't break the shield. Mike was on air and had nothing to help him stand against the impact.
"Brother Mu, are you alright?" Bing Lan rushed towards Mike and asked with a worried expression. She crouched down and wiped the blood away from his mouth.
"You know you would make an excellent wife." Mike complimented her and instantly disappeared from her hands. The next moment he appeared above the blood orb. He hold it and dispersed it to his body.
This wasn't the same blood orb that was inside his body. As soon as it disappeared, those worms suddenly started falling down.
"Let's try fire and lightning combo!" Mike gritted his teeth with excitement and released the lightning and fire law around him. Both of them formed a circle behind him. Lightning was on his right side and the fire was on his left.
Mike clenched his hands and took out the stream of lightning and fire around him. As they rotated around him, he used the spiritual sense to control it. This was one of the best ways to utilize the spiritual sense that he learned from those two books.
The lightning and fire combined together in the form of red lightning. It encircles his hands and suddenly transformed into a thin layer. Mike raised his hand and formed a red lightning ring with the thin red lightning and the rings behind him disappeared.
"Fire-Lightning Combo- Plasma Stream!"
The red lightning discharged a few times inside the ring and released a huge stream of lightning. The stream looked like fire since the lightning itself was red and releasing the intense heat. But, it didn't change its form.
Bang! Boom!
The best power of this attack was its speed. In just a few seconds, it collides against the metal worm and melted its body with the heat, and broke with lightning powers. As soon as the red lightning passed through its body and reached the ground, it exploded.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Although this attack only killed one of them, the explosion smashed other metal worms to the ground. As soon as they fell, Bing Lan condensed the spiritual qi on her sword and appeared above one of them.
Her blue spiritual qi was like the water. It encircled her sword and formed a snake. But, as she released more spiritual qi into her sword, the water snake transformed into a giant dragon rising tall from her sword.
"Fangs of Water Dragon!"
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
The water dragon flew out of her sword and rushed towards one of the worms. It was a stream of water that only had a head of a dragon. But, a new stream of water rising from the side changed it. The stream transformed into a long arm of the dragon.
Splash! Splash! Bang!
The claws formed at the arm were sharp enough to pierce the metal worm. Unfortunately, just after two swings of its claw, the water dispersed above the worm. The spiritual qi wasn't enough to use that attack.
"Hu! Hu! Hu!"
'That attack took so much stamina. Not to mention, my spiritual qi wasn't enough. Can I truly kill a Martial King-level beast? Did I overestimate myself?' Bing Lan bites her lips with distress. She knew if she could have maintained that attack, the beast would've been slaughtered.
Unfortunately, she didn't have much spiritual qi.
But, suddenly her eyes released an intense passion.
'No, I can't give up now. This is the best moment. I must realize the Sword Intent. I must...…'
Just when she thought, a powerful heat passed near her. A sword arc burning like sun condensed by the power of sword intent moved towards the worm and slashed at the exact place where water dragon claws had pierced.
Splash! Bang! Bang!
But, this sword slashed through the wound and slashed it in half. As its body got divided in half, the worm moved desperately until it finally settled down.
"A swordsman needs a strong body even if he is going to rely on energy or sword intent. Without immense stamina, you won't be able to stick for the longer battles."
Suddenly, she heard an unfamiliar voice. She turned around and saw a handsome man standing behind her. He had a tall height with a slender body. His clothes were a bit tattered but with the sword sheath on his waist and a cold look on his face, he was simply the dream boy for most girls.
"Woah! Sword Demon, how the hell did you come here?" Mike suddenly appeared near Bing Lan and supported her. He turned around and looked at the young man. He was stunned when he saw the familiar face.
"I see, you are also in this unknown world." The Sword Demon nodded his head when he saw Mike. Suddenly, when he saw Mike holding Bing Lan in his arms, he continued "And, you are still a scum even in this world."
"Hey! What's supposed to mean? I am very faithful to my women." Mike raised his and shouted at the Sword Demon, and continued "At least, in the bed!"
Sword Demon ignored his words and asked "So, do you know where this place is? Why am I here after entering the portal that was supposed to take us back to earth? By the way, why are you here when you didn't even enter the Divine Tomb?"
"Wait, you mean you have teleported back this world. Seriously dude, tell me what happened on the earth? Why did you enter the Divine Tomb so early? And, most importantly, how are Olive and Lucas?" Mike instantly appeared in front of the Sword Demon and asked while holding his shoulders.
Listening to his question, Sword Demon looked at him with a weird and gaze.
"Earth is on the brink of destruction!"
